Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Mrs. Zhenguo was so frightened that she hurriedly helped her grandson up. Seeing that he was holding his stomach, she hurriedly lifted up his clothes. There was a big bruise underneath.

"This is?"

Madam Zhenguo thought of something, raised her head and asked Xue Meng angrily, "Did you hit me?"

Xue Meng didn't take it seriously, "I just beat him, what can you do?"

Mrs. Xue Er glared at her son and quickly looked at Liu Yunxiang, "Your Majesty, the children are playing around, it's nothing. My son is also injured, look at this."

Mrs. Xue Er hurriedly took her son's arm and rolled up his sleeves, but she couldn't find any injuries.

"That's on the back, I remembered it wrong." Mrs. Xue Er laughed dryly.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, and first asked the palace maid to invite the imperial doctor, and then asked the Zhenguo Duke's wife to take the young master to the side hall to wait.

After the grandfather and grandson left, only Mrs. Xue Er and Xue Meng were left in the hall.

"Queen Mother, in fact, the Duke's Mansion in this town is already a thing of the past."

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

"If it's no longer grand, all I have to do is reach out and pull it out."

"Unplug it?" Liu Yunxiang snorted coldly, "The Zhenguo Duke's mansion is going to be pulled out just because it offended you?"

"Your Majesty, that's not what I mean. I just... think they are disloyal to you!" Mrs. Xue Er quickly changed her voice.

Liu Yunxiang said lightly: "It doesn't matter whether they are loyal to me or not. It is enough that they are loyal to the court, to Great Rong, and to the people of the world."

These words were so righteous that Mrs. Xue Er could not help but look at Liu Yunxiang again. Is this still the selfish Ye Yao?
"You...you can take off your veil."

Liu Yunxiang gave Mrs. Xue a cold glance, "The second Mrs. Xue is too presumptuous in front of me."

Mrs. Xue Er was startled, "I know my mistake."

Liu Yunxiang stopped paying attention to the two ladies and turned to look at Xue Meng.He was about the same age as Yan'er, tall and strong, with an unruly look on his face. He was not as careful as he was when he was following Liang Wen'an.

"Xue Meng, does that jade pendant look good?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Xue Meng didn't want to answer him yet, so his mother slapped him on the back of the head and said to him carefully: "This is the Queen Mother, please tighten your skin."

After hearing this, Xue Meng turned around and replied respectfully: "It looks good."

"Do you like it?"

"I don't like it much, I just want it anyway."

"Queen Mother, this child can't speak. What he means is that he picked up the jade pendant. Although it looks good and although he likes it, it still has to be handed over to the government. The government will find the owner and return it to the owner. He cannot do it because of the government. The young master gave it to him with just one sentence. My son has always thought carefully, not only did he offend someone, but he also got beaten." As she said this, Mrs. Xue Er began to feel aggrieved for her son.

Liu Yunxiang's thoughts changed and he said to Xue Meng: "There are many interesting gadgets here in this palace, do you want them?"

Xue Meng nodded quickly, "I think!"

"No, no, this is not appropriate." Mrs. Xue Er was about to refuse.

Liu Yunxiang stood up and waved to Xue Meng. At the same time, he said to Mrs. Xue: "You'd better go to the side hall to see the young master of Zhenguo Gongfu. After all, he was injured by your son. If there is any good or bad, what happened? It will be difficult to deal with your son."

Mrs. Xue Er did not dare to disobey, so she had to tell her son to be respectful, and then went to the side hall.

Liu Yunxiang brought Xue Meng to the inner hall and opened a large wooden box placed beside the bed. There was indeed a lot of gold and silver jewelry inside, which was obtained by Ye Yao from bribery.

Xue Meng especially liked jade ornaments, choosing them one by one.Liu Yunxiang sat next to him, his thoughts changed, and he said: "What you like should naturally be yours. That Brother Qin is so annoying that he even robs it from you."

When Xue Meng heard this, she was silent for a moment, and then whispered: "I picked up that jade pendant."

"Whether he picked it up or not, as long as you like it, he should give it to you. Your grandfather is the Duke of Yang Guo, and your father is even more amazing. No one in Shengjing can compare with your family."

He was a child after all. Although he was a little wary, he couldn't help but feel proud after hearing this, "Huh, I don't like that jade pendant that much, but he insisted on snatching it from me and said that his grandfather gave it to him. Yes, then I’ll break it into pieces and give it back to him!”

Liu Yunxiang's face darkened. This child has been educated by the Xue family. He really needs to be dealt with!

However, Liu Yunxiang calmed down and returned to his previous pleasant expression, "By the way, do you know Li Wenxiu? He is about the same age as you?"

Upon hearing Li Wenxiu, Xue Meng immediately became defensive, pursed her lips and stopped talking.

"I've seen that kid, he sounds annoying." Liu Yunxiang said.

Hearing this, Xue Meng turned to look at Liu Yunxiang, "You hate him too?"

"Well, it's so annoying. He always holds a book and pretends to know everything. With his background, it's possible that he still expects to get the top prize. It's really ridiculous."

She asked Feng Zheng to inquire about the alley of the Li family. It turned out that the child of the Li family was very talented. Because the old master liked him, he started studying with him when he was three years old.He memorized all the Four Books and Five Classics by heart and had unique insights, earning him the title of "little prodigy".I am ten years old this year and I was supposed to prepare for the provincial examination.

What a pity, what a pity.

Hearing what Liu Yunxiang said, Xue Meng nodded hurriedly, "That is, the masters in our academy often use him to belittle us, saying that he will be very promising in the future, but no matter how good our background is, we are still not as good as him."

Liu Yunxiang said silently, "So you hate falling in love with him because of this?"

"Humph, I didn't want to argue with him. It's just that the master asked me a question that day and I didn't answer it. The wife reprimanded me again and said that Li Wenxiu must know, so I have to go and meet this 'prodigy'. You know How ridiculous it was when I saw him. He was helping his father look after the stall. His family sold live chickens and ducks, and he was sitting among a pile of chickens and ducks reading, surrounded by chicken and duck excrement, which made him stink. .”

"I asked him what a gentleman's thoughts are. This is what the master asked me, and the boy actually answered it, and he looked proud. I told him that it is useless for people like him to study, and he still refused to accept it. , saying that I just rely on my family’s wealth and power, otherwise I am nothing. He made me angry first, so I asked someone to beat him, and then..."

Xue Meng pouted, "Anyway, he hit the wall himself, and he deserves to be killed."

Liu Yunxiang gritted his teeth secretly. A little life that could have blossomed wonderfully was killed because he answered a question correctly.The person who harmed others didn't feel that he was wrong at all. He was still complacent and said that he deserved the scolding.

Liu Yunxiang really wanted to slap Xue Meng a few times, but for now he could only endure his anger.

"Indeed, he deserves it."

Xue Meng's eyes lit up when she heard that Liu Yunxiang agreed with her, "Queen Mother, you are a reasonable person, I like you."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "But later I heard that his father sued your family to the Yamen?"

"Yeah, so what, our family can still be afraid of him."

"Indeed, but he disappeared later, right?"

"Uh, missing."

"No one knows where he is, not even you, right?"

"I..." Xue Meng opened her mouth, but was still worried about saying anything.

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment and whispered: "This kind of person should not live."

Xue Meng nodded quickly, "He is indeed dead."

"Oh? Then where is he?" (End of Chapter)
