At that time, Duke Zhen Guo and several other important ministers were still discussing matters in the emperor's study. During the intermission for tea, Duke Zhen Guo knew about this matter.

Several important ministers were comforting the Duke of Zhen. Although Qin Fengzhong didn't say anything at that time and didn't have the slightest intention of pursuing him, his face suddenly sank.

Who is fueling this incident? Even if it happens, with the ability of the Qin family, if they want to suppress this matter, then even the slightest bit of news will not come out.

It happened to the princess again, if it were normal...

But this is not the usual situation. There is Qin Fengxi in the house. He is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so there is only one reason to explain.

Thinking of the consequences of this incident, the Duke of Zhenguo immediately felt at ease. He looked like an old god was there in his heart, but he was wronged on the surface. This made several ministers feel pity and relief. Fortunately, it was not their family that was being troubled.

.

Even the Duke of Zhen Guo did not dare to say a word after being beaten by his wife, so he had to suffer injustice, let alone officials like them?

After all, the Ninth Princess has such a good reputation that she can’t be offended!

The Duke of Zhen Guo's acting skills are very good. He dares to be angry but dare not speak out. He also looks at the emperor openly and secretly with a look that is beyond the reach of his father. It makes the emperor feel scared.

Afterwards, when the emperor knew the whole story, he felt that he had been completely humiliated. He felt that no emperor in the world was more cowardly than him.

As an emperor, he was embarrassed to refute when he was looked down upon and ridiculed by his courtiers.

After all, it was the royal family that was at fault, and Li Pan single-handedly caused the biggest scandal of the year.

He vowed to lead someone to steal someone else's man as a princess, and it was okay to steal the man. At least it was courageous, but the key is that he didn't succeed!

A scholar could be killed but not humiliated, but Li Pan was a scholar who could be humiliated but not killed. He had lost the royal family's face. The more Emperor Mingzong thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable.

He was born to Concubine Shu, and he immediately found someone to vent to.

When she went to the harem, she scolded Concubine Shu, and fined Concubine Shu for three years. Concubine Shu was so confused at the time that she thought it was the queen stirring up trouble again, until the ninth princess was carried away.

After returning to the palace, Concubine Shu knew what had happened.

Until this incident spread throughout the capital, it was too late for the emperor to make amends afterwards. It was still spread in the streets and alleys, how shameless the ninth princess was and how she had lost the royal face.

The emperor was so angry that he almost couldn't hold it in one breath. He scolded Concubine Shu for not being relieved. That night, it was reported that the third prince Li Mu and the fifth prince had entered the palace together without saving any face. He was scolded on the spot.

It is said that King Li studied hard, attacked heretics, and had great ambitions, but he did not know that he was in love with others, and his intelligence was dim. As an elder brother, a good sister did not teach and guide him, and he developed the current arrogant, domineering and shameless behavior.

Ancestor's face.

Therefore, after the emperor scolded her, the Ninth Princess's brother, King Li, and the fifth prince were considered to have suffered unreasonable disasters. The emperor transferred all the rejection and contempt he had received to Queen Li, and he felt a little more comfortable.

Afterwards, he fined King Li and the fifth prince a year's salary as usual, and finally felt a little more at ease.

Afterwards, the emperor subsidized the salaries of the three of them to the Qin family to compensate for the things that the ninth princess had smashed.

The Qin family has suffered such great grievances, so they must accept it. Otherwise, others would think that the Qin family and the royal family are still at odds with each other and are unwilling to show favor to the royal family or let the emperor step down. They can only accept it without any difficulty.

.

The emperor felt that the people of the Qin family were easy to appease. The key was that it would not end well in Wudi country. If his daughter did such a thing, even an ordinary family should at least sink into the pond.

Things have come to a head, and the emperor will have to accept whatever Wu Diguo says, whether to change to another princess or to cancel the engagement.

The palace annex in the capital

After the boy beside Lu Citron heard the news, he came to notify him immediately.

"Hui Ye, now the news has spread everywhere in the government and the public. The ninth princess went to the mansion to make a fuss over the seventh master of the Zhenguo Palace. She wanted to marry Qin Qiye, but she failed. She was also taken care of by Qin Qiye's fiancée.

A meal, do you think?"

Lu Citron knew that Li Pan was a stupid donkey who only knew how to yell. He was just a food for others to drink when he was really in trouble.

The third girl from the Jiang family managed her well and she still dared to challenge him.

"You said that both the government and the public know about it now? What about the people in the countryside and on the streets?"

The boy didn't understand what Lu Xiangton meant, so he quickly asked: "What do you mean?"

"If this matter is not made known to everyone, where will my grievance come from? If I am not aggrieved, how can I raise the price? I have almost become a cuckold. Don't I have any shame? Then Emperor Mingzong, can't he compensate me a little?"

The boy immediately understood, "I am wise."

"Go ahead and tell the people in the annex. No matter what others point out or yell at, you must not refute. You must swallow your anger and look aggrieved. We intend to form an alliance with the big country and respect and tolerate the willfulness of Your Highness the Princess.

, anyway, we just swallowed our anger and identified the Ninth Princess."

Regarding the incident involving Li Panda's birth, there has been no commotion in Lili, the guest house, and everything has been quiet.

Ming Zong sent waves of people to check Lu Citron's reaction and see his attitude.

But the result was that there was no movement, they stayed in the house quietly and did not come out.

He didn't get angry or make any noise, just like usual, as if he hadn't heard anything.

This made the emperor not sure how to deal with it. He said to comfort him, but he didn't respond and acted like nothing happened.

If you say change to another princess, it seems like you have slapped yourself in the face again, which means there is no silver three hundred taels here.

So the next day, we convened several ministers to discuss the matter and see how to solve the problem of Wu Di Kingdom and restore some of the country's integrity. It would not be a big and majestic country that claimed to be a country of etiquette, but ended up showing such filth to others.

All kinds of things.

I can only say it in one word.

The prince and grandson were also called to the palace overnight to discuss countermeasures.

After all, my grandson came from Luxiangton and has been accompanying me all the time. It will be easy to talk to him when the time comes.

******

After the people left, Lu Citron leaned back on his chair and felt content.

Picked up the pastries on the table and ate them.

It's not the popular pastry in the capital, it's the white one that I used to eat at Jiang Wu's house in Jizhou City.

But no matter how many people were hired to make this pastry, it never tasted right.

He took a bite, threw it back on the plate, called to the waiter and said, "The pastry chef has changed, it's not sweet enough."

Immediately, a servant came in and quickly brought the pastries out.

"There have been six different masters."

"No, I always say it's not sweet enough."

A nun picked up a piece and took a bite. It was so sweet that it made your teeth tired.

"Only children like this kind of pastry. I'll find a piece of oil paper quickly, wrap it up and take it back to my grandson."
