Chapter 118 The Irritated Villain’s Beloved (13)

The palace maid took small steps and bowed to Duke Liu.

"Mr. Liu, my mother-in-law is taking a nap, so it's really inconvenient to see guests."

It was three o'clock in the morning and lunch had been eaten. Mr. Liu didn't believe that his niece could continue to sleep.

The person who brokered his son's marriage was Liu Ru'er, and it was Liu Ru'er who asked him to accept such a daughter-in-law obediently.

Now the person who created the figurines is closed to visitors. What does this mean?

Although Mr. Liu has doubts, he still needs the proper etiquette.

After leaving Weiyang Palace, the palace was so big that Liu Gong took a few detours and got lost.

In front of you, there are birds chirping and flowers fragrant, and the greenery is abundant. I don’t know whether it is the imperial garden or the palace of some empress.

There is a distinction between monarch and ministers, concubines and foreign ministers are not allowed to see each other. Liu Gong prays in the imperial garden, not the latter.

"Hey, I asked you why today is such an unlucky day. I just met an outsider here. Come on, let me take him down. I want to see Your Majesty."

I can only hear his voice but not see his person.

The force from all directions, one person and one kick, made Liu Gong so angry that he dared not come out.

Before Liu Gong could see clearly who the other party was, he was pushed to the ground by the guards who came forward and took a mouthful of mud.

Unable to wait for Mr. Liu to defend himself, Concubine Liu Shu ordered someone to send her to Gu Tingyu. Meiren Xiao helped her walk to the imperial study.

Gu Tingyu was walking around and stretching his muscles after lunch. He didn't expect to get to work so soon.

"Mr. Liu?" Gu Tingyu frowned, remembering that when he met Liu Shaoyu just now, he was so anxious that he was sweating all over. He thought he was looking for Mr. Liu and bumped into him by chance.

Good guy, neither father nor son can worry, the Liu family is really talented.

Gu Tingyu lifted Mr. Liu's chin, glanced contemptuously, let go, and wiped his hands in disgust.

"Concubine Shu? OK, go back and report to your master. This person will be brought to His Majesty. Please don't worry, Concubine Shu."

It was a serious crime for a foreign minister to break into the concubine's palace. Gu Tingyu thought of Liu Shaoyu's cowardly appearance, and his father was not much better.

Without giving Mr. Liu a chance to argue, Gu Tingyu ordered someone to gag him and drag him to the imperial study.

At this time, Concubine Liu Shu and Meiren Xiao were kneeling down to speak to the emperor. Duke Zhen Guo stood beside him, his eyes showing a dark color.

In the fight for the harem, people always kill people without seeing the light of blood. If Liu Gong offends someone, God helps me. Bai Xingzhou tries his best to hide himself and not involve himself.

Although the emperor had no real feelings for Concubine Liu Shu, she had been with him for many years, and there was always some love between husband and wife.

How could the emperor swallow his anger when his own woman was spied on by others? Liu Gong was severely criticized, and Liu Shaoyu who came over immediately interceded for his father.

"Huh, I haven't married Bai Qingzhi yet. Do you think you can sway my decision with just a few words?" The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly. The father and son really have no law. Do they think he is someone who can reconcile at will?

?

The Bai and Liu families broke off their engagement, Liu Gong was transferred to the Ministry of Punishment, and Liu Shaoyu was expelled from the palace.

"Mr. Zhen Guo, what do you think of my execution?"

There were no members of the Liu family in the Ministry of Punishment, and Duke Liu should have been supervised by Dali Temple. The emperor was afraid that they would collude with others, so he asked the Ministry of Punishment to handle the matter to show fairness.

Bai Xingzhou stepped forward and saluted, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. Concubine Shu has been in the palace for many years, and she has never suffered such humiliation. Please ask Your Majesty to find out the reason, and to clear Concubine Shu's name so that everyone in the harem can feel at ease."

As Bai Xingzhou continued to speak, Concubine Liu Shu shook her little hands and shed a few tears, her red eyes making people pity.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has never done anything harmful to heaven and earth. Why does God punish me like this? Your Majesty, Mr. Liu has such a temperament. Naturally, his son will not be much better. It is not surprising that Mr. Zhen Guo wants to cancel the marriage.

"

The princess will have hairpins in a few years, and Concubine Shu's words remind the emperor that as a father, Liu Shaoyu is so useless that he is indeed not suitable to be a son-in-law.

He gave many things to comfort the Duke of Zhen, including Concubine Shu and Meiren Xiao.

As for Liu Ru'er, she was still sleeping soundly in the palace.

The palace maid has never been so happy as she is today.

The master slept peacefully, and the palace servants they were on duty felt relieved even though they had no work to do, and looked energetic.

After coming out of the palace, Bai Xingzhou was not in a hurry to return to Zhenguo's mansion, but came to the Yamen to ask for someone.

Bai Xingzhou is not worried about whether the person can come back, because he has a way to bring the person out, but he wants to see the attitude of the Liu family.

Decent people are doing decent things. If they get the information, they should not continue to detain him.

The hammer struck the drum head one hammer after another, and the sound was deafening, causing the people around to watch and stop.

They recognize the Duke of Zhen Guo. Why go to the Yamen wearing official uniform?

Master has been frightened for a long time. Now they have to let go if they don't want to. Keeping such a giant Buddha will kill them sooner or later.

The master ordered the government officials to send the person out, but he refused to come to see Bai Xingzhou.

Bai Xingzhou didn't care about this. Seeing that his slave was beaten to pieces, he called the guards behind him to call for a carriage, and one of them went to fetch the doctor. Bai Xingzhou led the horse and walked all the way back to the Zhenguo Palace.

After doing this, within half an hour, the whole capital knew that Duke Zhen Guo had come to the Yamen in person and had just brought back the servants of Duke Zhen Guo's mansion.

Even the token given by the late emperor is useless. Will the Duke of this town no longer be respected by the royal family?

People guessed and soon had the answer.

At night, a group of people came out from the palace, took away more than ten people from the Yamen, and sent them to the Criminal Department.

The Minister of Punishment has always enforced the law impartially. If the Punishment Department can be dispatched, I am afraid that the good life of the Yamen people will come to an end.

The common people wore their coats and came out to watch the fun despite the cold spring weather.

The government officials usually relied on their own strength, but this time they were caught, and the people all praised them.

"Commander Gu, we have been sent to the Ministry of Justice. A lot of silver and gold, as well as hundreds of jade articles of all kinds, were found in the Yamen. Are they confiscated?"

Gu Tingyu picked a few items and looked at them, waving his hand, "Of course it will be confiscated, where are the account books? Could it be that Master knew we were coming and destroyed the evidence in advance?"

Behind the scenes is the Liu family, who relies on Liu Ru'er.

Gu Tingyu was not an emperor, but he was so fascinated by Liu Ruer that he immediately ordered people to search the Yamen and take away everything they could as evidence.

If he couldn't be taken away, Gu Tingyu assigned a few people to guard the yamen.

If people come to report, they will be rewarded after verification.

Before dawn the next day, there was a long queue outside the Yamen.

When the Liu family received the news, it was already noon and their lunch had not yet been eaten, so they hurried to the Yamen to check on the situation.

The person has already been taken away, and since Dali Temple has not accepted the case, the Liu family has no right to interfere.

It’s not a good idea to take him anywhere, but he is the chief judge of the Criminal Department.

Liu Yuanqing arranged the manpower to send the letter to the harem. He waited all night without success and could no longer wait.

The eldest son Liu Xuanzhi rushed home, and Liu Yuanqing immediately pulled him into the study to discuss the matter.

It is not a good thing that too many people are paying attention to the Liu family. Liu Yuanqing hopes that his son can find a way to ask people to watch the Ministry of Punishment.

Liu Xuanzhi was also in a dilemma. He hadn't slept well since yesterday and his eyes were still swollen. "Father, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple have no contact with each other. If Dali Temple intervenes in the cases investigated by the Criminal Department, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor.

Father, is there any news about my sister?"

From yesterday to now, there is no news about my sister.

With such a big commotion, could it be possible that something happened to my sister in the palace? Liu Xuanzhi suppressed his doubts. His Majesty has loved his sister for many years, so it is impossible for such a situation to happen.

Maybe he was too worried, but with his sister's intelligence, there might be other ways.
