Chapter 23 The Embarrassed Emperor

Chapter 025 The Embarrassed Emperor
Li Longji's laughter and Yang Yuhuan didn't hear anything, but Mrs. Guo Guo could hear a hint of a meaningful warning.

Mrs. Guo Guo bowed her head and said nothing, but she sighed in her heart: the emperor is thinking more and more about herself... It seems that he suspects that he has that kind of thinking about Zhang Xuan?Who did he take the slave family as?A good bitch?Want to seduce a man?

Yang Yuhuan smiled and said, "Sanlang, it's rare for the third sister to speak up once, so it's not good to refute her face too much. Besides, Zhang Jiuling is a famous minister and a loyal minister, and his son must not be far behind. He is a Wensan subordinate who has no position and no authority in the Eastern Palace, how dare he conspire to rebel? I think this matter is a bit reasonable."

"The East Palace has always followed the rules, so there should be no outrageous things... Why don't you give Zhang Huan a chance and give Third Sister a face."

Li Longji glanced back at Yang Yuhuan tenderly.In his heart, Yang Yuhuan's status is unparalleled, no other woman can match it, and he always obeys her. Fortunately, Yang Yuhuan is not interested in power and government affairs, and rarely speaks out in this regard.If it wasn't for Mrs. Guo Guo today, she would not mind such nosy matters.

Now that Yang Yuhuan opened her mouth, Li Longji couldn't face her face face to face.After thinking about it, I immediately smiled, "Since my concubine also said so, I—"

Li Longji withdrew his smile, and suddenly turned his head to stare at Mrs. Guo Guo, who had a charming face with a hint of joy, and said in a deep voice, "My original intention was to punish severely, so as to warn others. But since my concubine and third aunt have pleaded for Zhang Huan one after another , I will agree. However, the death penalty is exempt, but the official position is nothing more than that."

"Lishi, go to Dali Temple tomorrow to proclaim the decree... let Zhang Huan be dismissed from office and go home, and he will not be hired for life... The Donggong case is over. I will pass my oral order to Li Linfu later, saying that I will let him recover from his illness, and I will let Yu The doctor went to Li's mansion for consultation..."

As soon as Li Longji said this, Mrs. Guo Guo, who was originally beaming with joy, couldn't help but frowned. She thought to herself, since you agreed, why didn't you pardon Zhang Huan immediately, why did you have to wait until tomorrow to announce the decree?

Gao Lishi stood behind Li Longji, bowed without changing his face, and said, "This old servant will obey the holy edict."

Gao Lishi has followed Li Longji for decades, and the two masters and servants have a very tacit understanding.With just one look from Li Longji, Gao Lishi knew what to do.

As soon as he heard that Li Longji had to wait for tomorrow to announce the decree to pardon Zhang Huan, Gao Lishi immediately understood the true thoughts of today's emperor.Thinking of this, Gao Lishi couldn't help raising his head and quickly glanced at Mrs. Guo Guo, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.

No one noticed that a faint haze flashed across Yang Yuhuan's bright and luxurious face. They hurriedly glanced at their third sister, and then quietly cast complicated eyes on Li Longji.

Don't look at Yang Yuhuan pretending not to know anything,
This old thing... Gao Lishi's fleeting and playful eyes reminded Mrs. Guoguo, her heart skipped a beat, she knew something was wrong, this young emperor who was so greedy seemed to want to make a move, so she quickly got up and saluted subconsciously, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my concubine feels a little unwell, so I take my leave and go back to rest. Farewell, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

Gao Lishi frowned.

Li Longji raised his thick eyebrows, and the sharpness in his eyes immediately sharpened a bit, and he said with a touch of coldness in his voice, "Oh, it's all right, why is Third Aunt feeling unwell? After the wind and cold, in my opinion it is better not to be exhausted by horses and horses, but to stay in the palace and let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat you once or twice."

It is said to be a discussion, but in fact Li Longji's words are full of strength and domineering.Naturally, he wanted to take the opportunity to eat Mrs. Guo on a whim. As long as she stayed in the palace overnight, he would have a lot of chances to win.

In Li Longji's view, if you want face, I will give it to you, and if you want glory and wealth, I will give it to you, so you should have the consciousness to serve me.I am the king of a country, and it is your blessing to have a crush on you. Wouldn't it be ignorant to push three obstacles and four obstacles?
Mrs. Guo Guo hesitated, and did not dare to refuse again.She knew in her heart that if she didn't know how to praise, the emperor would definitely become angry and do things that she and the Yang family couldn't bear.

At this time, Yang Yuhuan suddenly laughed and interjected, "Sanlang, since the third sister is not feeling well, let her go back to the house to rest. Hui'er has never been away from her mother since she was a child, and she is alone at the house. Don't worry about it. How about this, let the imperial physician go to the third sister's house to recuperate the body for the third sister, and in a few days, the third sister will come back to the palace to reunite with me."

Yang Yuhuan cast a complicated glance at Li Longji as he spoke.

The two couples have been in love for many years, and Li Longji naturally understood that Yang Yuhuan must have noticed his "unruly intentions", and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and the desire for temporary excitement dissipated.

He waved his hands angrily and said in a deep voice, "Forget it, Lishi, send two imperial physicians to accompany Mrs. Guo back to the manor."

Mrs. Guo Guo hurriedly saluted and thanked her as if she had received an amnesty, then said goodbye and left the palace.

……

……

dusk.Although there were people coming and going in the front yard of the Zhang Mansion, the atmosphere was very dull.

Originally, the mood of the Zhang family was very low, and many of the servants were a little restless when they did things, but at this moment, Cui Ju and his eldest son Cui Jin came to Zhang's mansion without hesitation and proposed to divorce.

According to the open folk customs of the Tang Dynasty, it is okay for the woman to voluntarily propose to withdraw from the marriage before she is actually married.Of course, for the man, this is a silent humiliation.

Cui Ju, as the woman's parent, came to withdraw the marriage in person, and this marriage must be withdrawn.The Liu family had no choice but to invite back Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao, the two direct elders of the Zhang family, so as to complete a formality.

Of course Zhang Jiuming and Zhang Jiugao were acquaintances with Cui Ju, and they knew why Cui Ju chose to divorce at this time.However, Cui Ju was suspected of making trouble when he came at this moment, and he was already in the posture of tearing his face.

Zhang Jiuming's face was very ugly.He waved his hands and said in a deep voice, "Go and call Zhang Xuan."

Mrs. Liu also signaled to the maid with a gloomy face that she should hurry to find the third son Zhang Xuan.
