Tangled

Chapter 27
The next day, the meeting.

The court meeting was originally a routine, and the ministers thought they could go back as early as before, but they were held back by Liu Taifu's words.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is wronged!"

"The old minister's daughter went out with Princess Suyang yesterday, and Princess Changhua insulted her all the time when she came up. The minister is just such a daughter, who is always favored by thousands of people. How has she ever suffered such grievances?"

"It's fine if she made a mistake first, but her words and demeanor are all right, but Princess Changhua speaks rudely when she comes up."

"Although the little girl has no rank, she can't suffer this grievance. If she doesn't seek justice for her, what face will the old minister have in going to see her ancestors in the future, and what face will she have in going to see her mother in the Lower Nine Nethers? "

"I beg Your Majesty to seek justice for the little girl!"

There was a roar that overwhelmed the other, and the old father felt distressed for his daughter.

It was originally a verbal dispute between the girls, but once they got to the front of the palace, it was no small matter, not to mention that one of them was Princess Changhua.

The ministers who had already made preparations for the next dynasty all raised their spirits.

King Xuan, the father of Princess Changhua, hadn't spoken yet, but Prince Gong couldn't stand up.

"Teacher's words are serious. It's just a noise from your daughter's house. Why should it be worth making a noise in front of the palace?"

"Besides, no matter how precious your daughter is, can she still be more precious than the princess? It's just a few words, and there is no missing piece of meat. This king thinks that's all."

It's okay if he didn't say that, but Liu Songxian immediately exploded when he said that, and sneered at him: "Am I talking about your daughter? If it's not your daughter, why are you so anxious?"

"My dear father is still here, what are you doing?"

He snorted twice, and said again: "In the early years, I heard that Princess Xuan was flattered and flattered by Prince Gong when she was not out of the cabinet. I didn't believe it at first, but looking at it today, it is not groundless."

As soon as these words came out, the original whispers disappeared immediately, replaced by Qi Shushua's eyes wandering between Prince Gong and Prince Xuan.

"Liu Songxian, don't talk nonsense!" Prince Gong became anxious when he heard this.

Relying on His Majesty's respect, this old thing became more and more arrogant. Even Prince Gong dared to arrange it at will. If things go on like this, how majestic is he in this court?

"Now we're talking about the matter between Princess Changhua and your daughter. What's the matter with this king?"

"Yo, a big man like Prince Gong is afraid of being made irresponsible remarks."

"Your majestic Prince Gong doesn't have such a stomach, how can you ask your little girl to have it, and be humiliated for no reason, shouldn't there be a saying?"

"If Prince Gong thinks that the little girl's life is cheap and not worthy of the honor of Princess Changhua, then the old minister should ask the people in the world. Is it true that a commoner deserves to be humiliated?"

Seeing that Prince Gong's face was flushed, Liu Songxian turned to Prince Xuan again, "Does the lord also think like Prince Gong? Do you think my daughter shouldn't care about this matter?"

Seeing that King Xuan was silent, Liu Song flicked his sleeves first, knelt down towards Emperor Yuan, put his palms up on the sides of his head, his actions and words were very sincere.

"I implore Your Majesty to make the decision for my poor daughter!"

"Liu Taifu must give me an explanation today?" Emperor Yuan looked at Liu Songxian who was lowered, feeling very headache.

He made trouble for himself just after he came back. He shouldn't have been transferred back so quickly in the first place.

He thought that he could wear down some stubbornness after so many years in a poor land, but he never thought it would be worse than before.

But what can he say in a few verbal disputes?He is the majestic lord of a country, is it possible that he wants to get involved in his daughter's family?
But if you don't give an explanation, this old guy will not give up today.

Emperor Yuan looked at the ministers below who were all bowing their heads and watching their hearts, thinking about what to say.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

When he was in a difficult situation, someone suddenly opened his mouth, Emperor Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, before he saw who the other party was, he waved his hand to let him speak.

"Your Majesty, the princess of Changhua County, speaks disrespectfully and deceives the cousin of Shen's family in Jiangzhou. I hope His Majesty will make the decision for the daughter of Shen's family."

I thought I had an excuse to ignore this, but I didn't expect another one.

Looking at the expressionless Gu Tingshu, Emperor Yuan was so angry that he wanted to throw the jade seal at hand.

It's all this time, and I don't want to think about how to solve it for me, but I'm still messing with that old thing.

Both of them sued Princess Changhua. If they didn't know that they had never had any contact with each other, they would have thought that they had negotiated.

"Oh? The Marquis of Zhenbei wants to sue Princess Changhua?"

"King Xuan, although Princess Changhua is a royal, you are her father. What do you think of this matter?"

King Xuan, who was named, looked up, then lowered his head again and remained silent.

How can he see, how else can he see?
One Liu Songxian, one Gu Tingshu, the courtiers and the leaders of Zhongwen Wu are all gathered, what can he think?
Whoever caused the trouble will bear the blame, anyway, he is not bad for this daughter.

"Since King Xuan doesn't say anything, then this matter is up to me."

"Responsible princess Changhua closed the door to think about the past three months, and copied the scriptures a hundred times in the Buddhist hall to pray for the queen mother. What does the grand master think?"

It wasn't a big crime in the first place. Although the punishment was mild, it was a big deal to lose face.

Liu Song thanked Gu Tingshu first, and when he turned to look at Gu Tingshu, he realized that he had already stood back.

I have heard that the Marquis of Zhenbei is greatly favored by His Majesty, but I thought it was nothing more than mediocrity, but seeing him today, it is not as good as seeing him after a long time.

Even if he didn't thank you, His Majesty didn't say anything in front of the civil and military officials of the court, and just let him go.

After the court was over, Mu Chengze pulled Gu Tingshu away first, and Liu Song, who was a step behind, stood behind and watched the two of them walk away.

Being so close to the crown prince, and His Majesty valued him so much, it seems that this Marquis of Zhenbei has a bright future.

Bringing Gu Tingshu to the imperial study, the prince stepped back and walked straight in.

When Emperor Yuan arrived at the imperial study, the two had already tasted tea in it.

He sighed a long time, thinking that he was old after all, although they left first, he was lagging behind them a lot.

"They are bold, even dare to enter the Royal Study Room."

"My son has seen his father."

Seeing Emperor Yuan come in, the crown prince saluted, and seeing Gu Tingshu not moving from the corner of his eye, he felt annoyed, so he secretly kicked him.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

Although this ceremony was done reluctantly, Emperor Yuan had already gotten used to it and waved his hand to let them do as they please.

"I asked you to come here to ask if you had a lady whom you liked yesterday. Why did you bring him here?"

"Father, my son is about the same age as Ashu, and Ashu also went yesterday, so I should choose a wife for myself."

This made sense, Emperor Yuan nodded, and turned his gaze to Gu Tingshu, "Who does Ah Shu have a crush on?"

Gu Tingshu took a few sips of tea, and seeing that they were both waiting for his answer, he put the cup back and closed his cuffs.

"The state affairs are busy, Your Majesty should not be distracted by your ministers."

What he said almost made it clear that he was meddling in his own business.

Emperor Yuan was choked and glared at him, "If I wasn't afraid that you would end up alone, would I worry about this?"
