Chapter 35 A false alarm

Ye Mu and Gu Xun were waiting outside the imperial study at this time.

I have been waiting for more than an hour.

It's a long way from the palace to the Ye Mansion, and the travel takes time, and searching things also takes time.

Their legs were a little numb from standing, so they just moved gently.

At this time, a voice came from behind.

"Hey, what are Minister Ye and General Gu doing standing outside the Imperial Study?"

Ye Mu and Gu Xun turned around and found that it was Xiao Lang.

After the emperor knew that Xiao Yanchen was gambling, he issued an oral order for Xiao Lang to come to the palace to meet him.

Xiao Lang was so angry that the cooked duck was about to be in his mouth, but now it flew away!
Xiao Yanchen was beaten badly and fainted from the pain. When Princess Ningkang saw this, she cried out loudly.

Xiao Lang felt both distressed and angry, especially since the marriage was called off, which made him even more angry.

The Princess cried and said that the eldest prince was too ruthless. He beat his cousin like this. It was just a few gambles. What did it matter?
Xiao Lang didn't know what to say. It was not just a few simple bets. His family assets were not much to begin with, and now they were almost stretched to the limit.

It's really my fault. I should have taken more care of myself, otherwise I wouldn't be in this situation now.

Now, the emperor knows about this, and now I have to go to the palace to be criticized.

Seeing Ye Mu and Gu Xun both here, Xiao Lang was very curious. Could it be that His Majesty felt that Ye Mu's decision to break off the engagement was inappropriate?
Thinking of this, Xiao Lang said those words with a proud look on his face.

But Ye Mu and Gu Xun had no expression on their faces. "Of course we are waiting for His Majesty's decision."

Looking at the serious expressions of the two, Xiao Lang felt that it would be boring if he continued talking.

"Please go and inform them, eunuch." Xiao Lang said to the eunuch waiting outside the door.

After hearing this, the young eunuch opened the door, walked in, and after a while, walked out.

"Please follow us in, Prince."

Xiao Lang was led into the imperial study by the eunuch.

In the imperial study, the emperor was reviewing memorials with his head down.

"Brother, please see your Majesty."

The emperor did not raise his head directly, but continued to review the memorials. Xiao Lang saw that the emperor had no intention of letting him stand up, so he did not dare to stand up himself, and the situation remained in a stalemate.

After a long time, the emperor looked up and seemed to notice Xiao Lang coming.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"My dear brother..." Xiao Lang started to speak, but then he remembered that Ye Mu was still standing outside the door, so he thought that nothing was wrong with him and did not continue.

"Look at the good son you raised!"

The sudden roar startled Xiao Lang. This shouldn't happen. The emperor doesn't look angry! Didn't he call Ye Mu to stand outside?
"Your Majesty deserves to die!" Xiao Lang was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.

"You still know you deserve to die? My policy is to ban gambling, but you are doing the opposite! Do you want to tarnish the dignity of the royal family, or do you simply ignore my will? I think you are too carefree as a prince!"

"Your Majesty, I deserve to die! How dare I ignore your words! It was all my negligence. I didn't realize that Yanchen was just playing around and secretly gambled a few times!"

"Not to mention that this was seen by the eldest prince, if I saw it, I would definitely beat him with dozens of sticks to teach him a lesson! It's also your fault that I spoiled him since he was a child. After all, Yanchen is my only son."

"This kid has never suffered any hardship. He fainted after being beaten with just a few sticks. After Yanchen recovers, I will beat him with dozens more sticks!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I promise that Yanchen will never gamble again. If he does, I will cut off his fingers!" Xiao Lang gritted his teeth and said this.

After hearing Xiao Lang's words, the emperor calmed down a little. "Remember what you said today! If you have nothing else to do, go down!"

Xiao Lang wanted to mention Ye Mu's cancellation of the engagement, but he just moved his lips and didn't dare to say a word.

"Yes, I'll take my leave." Xiao Lang's face looked very bad and he walked out.

After leaving the imperial study, Xiao Lang saw Ye Mu and Gu Xun waiting outside the door. He didn't say anything else and walked out.

What are Ye Mu and Gu Xun doing? Have they committed a crime?
Unexpectedly, before Xiao Lang had taken a few steps, he saw some officials coming towards the imperial study.

Strange, what is the box in this hand?
Xiao Lang watched the official walk in, and then Ye Mu and Gu Xun also entered the imperial study.

At this time, Xiao Xijin also came over in a hurry.

"Prince?" Xiao Lang bowed slightly.

"Uncle." Xiao Xijin simply returned the greeting and walked towards the imperial study.

There must be something wrong! Xiao Lang didn't leave, and quietly asked the eunuch what happened.

The eunuch naturally didn't want to say it, but he did it because Xiao Lang, in his capacity as a prince, ordered him to do so.

On the way back to the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Lang laughed loudly. Ye Mu, you dare to have a rebellious heart. It's better for you to quit!
----

The atmosphere in the imperial study was very depressing.

Ye Mu felt a little weak now. He didn't expect that Zhi'er actually hid this thing!
Xiao Xijin's forehead was also slightly sweaty. No matter what, he must do his best to protect the Ye family!
"Open!"

At the emperor's command, the eunuch went forward to open the box and found a piece of paper inside.

Ye Mu, Xiao Xijin: ???It's not a little man? It's a piece of paper. What's written on it?
After reading it, the emperor burst into laughter.

"Well, you are indeed my good minister!"

Ye Mu was confused after hearing this. Was this irony?
"I didn't know that Minister Ye was so devoted and concerned about the people of Lintian Kingdom!"

"Look, Xijin, come and take a look."

Xiao Xijin took it and found that it actually said that Minister Ye wished God to bless the people and live and work in peace and contentment, and more importantly, wished his father a long life without disaster.

Gu Xun quietly touched Ye Mu and gave him a look.

Ye Mu pretended to be enlightened, "I was careless and forgot about it. It's my fault that I was really exhausted by Zhi'er's daughter's disturbance."

"I understand. I have heard from Xi Jin about this matter. It is indeed not easy for you. I am deeply pleased with your loyalty to the country!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ye Mu's heart was finally at ease. Judging from what Gu Xun said, he knew about this matter. He would ask about it in detail when he got back.

"Qing Ye is so loyal to the emperor and patriotic. I grant you a favor. What do you want?"

Ye Mu hesitated for a moment, and really didn't know what he wanted. "I haven't thought about it yet."

The emperor laughed, "Then I will keep this grace for you. When Ye Qing has made up his mind, come back to me for it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your reward."

"I am also tired, you all should leave first."

"Yes, Wei Chen is resigning."

"My son, please retire."

In the carriage, Ye Mu couldn't help but ask Gu Xun: "Son-in-law, shouldn't you tell your father-in-law what's going on?"
