Chapter 591 The price of cheating

The sage glanced at the ministers below, everyone lowered their heads with complicated expressions on their faces.

"Is Xuezheng here?"

"The minister is here." One person came out immediately.

"Those young people just now are all deprived of their fame."

"The minister obeys the order."

"Is the doctor of the Ministry of Rituals here?"

"The minister is here." Gu Yunan raised his hand in salute.

"Copy their names, and three generations of descendants will not be allowed to take the imperial examination."

"The minister obeys the order."

"And the three of you, you have no way to teach your children, and before you have fully found out the truth, you dare to turn black and white in the early court and falsely accuse the officials of the court. You have no sense of colleagues, how abhorrent."

"The minister is guilty." The three ministers knew that their future was in danger, the blow was huge, they couldn't control themselves, and their bodies shook slightly uncontrollably.

"Gu Qing, do you want to sue them back?"

"Yes. Your Majesty, please uphold justice for my subjects." Lord Ye replied simply and neatly.

"Okay, the medical expenses of Gu Yun's master and servant and the expenses of follow-up treatment and conditioning will be borne by the three of you, can you accept it?"

"Yes. Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Gu Yun is the eldest son of Ye Kingdom, and is my subject. The sons of your three families have no official titles, and are mere civilians. You must be very clear about the crime of murdering the current prince and ministers by ordinary people. You also turned black and white afterwards, causing Ye Kingdom The reputation of the government has been damaged. The fault of not raising the godfather is due to the fact that you are veterans of this court and have been loyal all your life. Please resign yourself. The rest of the property will be given to Duke Ye’s government as honorary compensation.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The three of them knelt down in tears and bowed to the saint for the last time. When they got up again, they hunched their backs and supported each other out of the hall.

All civil and military officials watched in silence, all thinking in their hearts that they should thoroughly investigate their children and grandchildren after returning home today, and if someone becomes addicted, they should be sent out of the capital as soon as possible, and they must not be used as a basis for their colleagues and political enemies to attack each other.

"That's it for today. Retire from court, Gu Qing, and follow me to the imperial study."

After Xi Gonggong sang and retired from the court, the crown prince and Ye Guogong Gu Yunan followed the saint and retreated to the imperial study together. The little eunuchs brought the regular meals that were rewarded to the ministers after retreating from the imperial court. The three monarchs and ministers ate in the imperial study Come.

"Gu Qing, can you give me a guarantee?"

"Your Majesty is stupid, please make it clear."

"The year before last, in the case of your family's relatives abusing their wives and daughters, the father and son involved lost their officials and were exiled. At the end of last year, in the case of Zhou Hongshou and Wang Chen'an, a seventh-rank official and a fifth-rank official were thrown out of office and imprisoned. Today, The three old ministers were forced to resign, their children were deprived of their fame, and three generations of descendants were not allowed to take the imperial examination. The rank of this official is getting higher every time, Gu Qing, the matter is only three, next year should be fine, right?"

"Next year...it should be fine..." Duke Ye Gu Yun'an was also speechless, not knowing what to say.

"I hope there will be no more accidents. Otherwise, according to the law, it will be the turn of the royal relatives next time." The saint snorted twice, and there was no hint of a joke in his tone, but it sounded scary anyway.

"After this incident, the dog Gu Yun should be more cautious when interacting with his friends. Presumably, no bad things will happen again."

"I hope so, the imperial court can't afford it."

After the monarchs and ministers ran out of snacks, the sage continued to stay with Gu Yun'an to discuss the follow-up caused by the medicine of peacock. Leading to addiction, strict inspection of all ships in each shipping port, prohibiting merchants and sailors from landing even a drop of peacock.

The crown prince took the lead in taking full responsibility for this matter. The confiscated medicines were handed over to the Imperial Hospital, and they were formulated into safe medicines before being distributed to the army. The anesthetics smelled are definitely more convenient to use than oral anesthetic decoctions. Generals, soldiers and military doctors will like it.

At the same time, what happened in the early court has already spread to the Imperial Hospital. After all, all the young people who were addicted to drugs in the main hall were sent here, and the latest news from the imperial court was immediately delivered by the well-informed ear gods.

These young people who have become addicted and have not recognized their relatives have had enough of their addiction with the smoking utensils returned together, and then they gradually regained their composure and returned to their senses. Angry at the sage, he has been deprived of his fame, and three generations of descendants are not allowed to take the imperial examination, and they all cried out sadly, one by one, saying that someone else brought them into drug addiction, not their own initiative. .

No one in Tai Hospital sympathized with them, especially the three who were stabbed by Bai Kou. They cried the most sadly, but they brought this on themselves, and they wanted to blame Bai Kou after the accident. Fortunately, The sage found out the truth and returned justice to Duke Ye and Duke Ye's mansion.

In hindsight, in fact, the testimony of the three of them cannot be justified. The reason why they can get the sympathy of the public is because of their scary injuries.

The sage, Shengming, was not deceived, but it was pity that their behavior caused their parents and family to follow and lost their noble honor.

It's really cheating.

The girls who took care of Gu Yun and Bai Kou were very happy when they heard the result, and they told them as soon as they woke up in the afternoon, Bai Kou showed a tricky smile on her face, and asked Xiao Ye Zi to help her up and put on her clothes Then go outside for a walk.

Those two guards had the mildest symptoms, and they went home to recuperate yesterday. She and Gu Yun still had to stay in the imperial hospital. The standard given by the imperial doctor was that they were fine if they could walk straight on their own, otherwise they would have to stay for a few more days .

Bai Kou knew that for rare cases, the imperial physicians also wanted to observe more and leave some detailed medical records, so she was very cooperative with various treatments, and the imperial physicians could play with her casually.

Gu Yun also got up from the bed, walking crookedly as if he was drunk, and the maids carefully followed him to prevent him from falling.

The two met in the yard, sitting together in the sun and talking, not caring about the scorching sun in midsummer at all, sweating is more comfortable, and can expel the last bit of peacock left in the body.

The two of them were chatting, teasing each other about treating the boredom of the past few days, the hospital suddenly became noisy, and many family members rushed in to ask where their children were, and the scene was a little chaotic for a while.

The decree issued by the early court, including the time required for the Xuezheng to sign and issue the official document, is about the time when the family members hear the news and arrive.

The guards of Duke Ye's mansion immediately came over to take Gu Yun and Bai Kou to a safe place, and listened to the various cries and curses of a large group of family members over there from a distance.

The three officials and wives also came, crying the loudest. What happened to the sons caused the husband to resign and return to his hometown, and he had to pay for the loss of the reputation of Duke Ye. Being expelled from the family, such scandals will greatly damage the family's face, shame the clansmen, be ridiculed by other village sages, and damage the reputation of the clan's children, so expulsion is the only end.

Without the blessing of the family, it would be difficult to gain a foothold in his hometown, and he would be bullied even if he was rich.

Listening to the scolding and crying in the wind, Gu Yun curled his lips. He was almost cheated to death by them. Now they have been deprived of their fame and their descendants cannot take part in the imperial examination. .

"I used to think of those three guys as good buddies with common interests and hobbies, but I didn't expect them to cheat me so much." Gu Yun recalled the happy memories of the past, feeling a little emotional.

"Perhaps their original intention was to give you a try of something new. Otherwise, the dignified son, like a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, would be so embarrassing."

"Stop talking, you scared me to death this time." Gu Yun raised his hand and stroked Bai Kou's head, "Go back and reward you."

"Okay!" With a reward, Bai Kou immediately narrowed his eyes with a smile.
