Li Zheng sat on the dragon chair, barely able to see the appearance of Liu and Young Master, and involuntarily walked down the dragon steps.
The package was really changed beyond recognition.
Otherwise, there are people in the palace who can do things easily. After some careful operations by professionals led by Jia Tong, Young Master Liu almost believed that he had indeed been beaten, and it was a kind of fisting and kicking that spared no effort.
How else can we say that there are specialties in the art industry? For professional things, you have to find professional people to handle them.
"Liu Aiqing, Zhu Aiqing, how did you become like this?"
Li Zheng walked down the dragon steps to see more clearly and was even more shocked. He really couldn't bear to look directly.
If there hadn't been a reply, Li Zheng almost thought that the two people in front of him were preparing to be buried!
"Your Majesty, I was beaten by someone. Your Majesty must make the decision for me!"
"I was beaten too!"
"Who is so bold as to beat up an official of the imperial court? Could it be that you had a conflict with others while drunk, right?"
Except for Du Chenghao and others, all the civil and military officials looked curiously at the two people lying on the ground. The only ones who were worried were Qi Run and Song Yu.
As a close relative, how can you not feel heartbroken when you see your nephew being beaten like this?
"Your Majesty, I was beaten into this state by Du Yu and Qin Guang."
Hearing this, Li Zheng frowned and looked at Du Chenghao and the others who were kneeling on the ground. His meaning was clear. Should you give me an explanation?
Du Chenghao and others looked at each other, speechless for a moment. Compared with their son's wounds, Du Chenghao and others felt that Liu Dashao's appearance was too miserable.
Prince Qing and Prince Qing looked at Liu Mingzhi and Liu Mingzhi lying on the ground with strange expressions in their hands. This was different from what they had seen.
Was Liu Mingzhi cheating? Or was there a second conflict after he left?
"Liu Aiqing, Zhu Aiqing, please tell me what happened!"
"Your Majesty, this is what happened. The former Japanese minister and the Marquis of Guannei met outside the city."
Young Master Liu turned out to be very talented in telling stories. He told the whole story so eloquently that the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, including Li Zheng, listened with gusto.
"Not only did Du Yu and the others molest the unmarried wife of the Marquis of Guannei in public, but the two ministers went to ask for an explanation. Who knew that not only did Du Yu and the others show no remorse, but they also made slanderous remarks. Seeing that the two ministers were alone and weak, they couldn't agree with each other.
They actually got into a big fight, especially since Sun Mingfeng actually practiced kung fu. How could the two of them be their opponents if they are each weaker than the other!"
"Then what?"
"Then after Du Yu and the others beat the two ministers, not only did they not show any fear, they even said that you should sue my father! Your Majesty, there is such an arrogant person at the feet of the emperor.
Is there any natural reason for the Lord to take action like this? Is there any royal law?"
"Your Majesty's virgin wife was not only teased, but also slapped. The person who did it was Qin Guang, the Master of the Ministry of Rites!"
After a brief period of shock, Du Chenghao and the others came to their senses and figured out something was wrong.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Liu and Marquis Guannei are cheating. Quanzi said that it was Master Liu who used His Majesty's Golden Dragon Emperor's order to coerce Guan Neihou into punching and kicking Quanzi and several other people. The Crown Prince and His Highness Prince Qing can testify. The two Highnesses have witnessed it with their own eyes.
What you see.”
"Prince, Prince Qing, what did you see?"
The prince and Prince Qing looked startled and hesitated for a moment: "Reporting to the father, they had stopped fighting when I saw them, and both sides were injured. However, I was busy with things in the palace and passed by each other.
, I don’t know the specific situation.”
"My son, like my elder brother, does not know the true situation."
"Wu Guogong, Zhou Fei!"
"I'm here!"
Li Zheng winked: "Let your two beloved ladies examine their wounds!"
"According to the order!"
Young Master Liu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, looked at Zhu Run and let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Commander Jia, an old acquaintance, was here to help, otherwise he would have been in trouble.
Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu inspected the wounds of Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu respectively, frowning from time to time.
He pinched the bones and touched the blood.
The two of them moved slightly, and both of them howled incessantly.
Qi Run frowned when he heard this, and felt heartbroken. Young Master Liu was also half his son, how could he not be heartbroken after being beaten like this?
My daughter was so miserable that she shed tears.
Duke Wu gently put down Master Liu's wounds: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Master Liu's bones have been dislocated and his skin is obviously bruised. He must have been beaten with fists and feet!"
"Your Majesty, the same is true for this old slave. The bones of Marquis Guannei have also been dislocated. He must not be able to move if he doesn't train for a month or two, but"
Li Zheng frowned and looked at Zhou Fei: "What's wrong?"
Zhou Fei approached Li Zheng and said, "Although there are traces of fists and kicks on this wound, there are traces of Kung Fu."
Li Zheng raised his eyebrows: "I understand! Just step back."
"yes!"
"Du Aiqing, do you guys want to examine the wounds of the two Aiqings?"
Du Chenghao and the others looked at each other, stood up, and walked forward to examine the wounds of Liu Mingzhi and the others.
Seeing his weak arms, he took a deep breath.
Young Master Liu squinted at the people led by Du Chenghao: "These adults are really good at educating their children, especially Mr. Du. I have already taken the initiative to reconcile with you during the New Year due to the misunderstanding among the officials. I didn't expect that Mr. Du is so big."
What a temper!"
Du Chenghao frowned and looked at Mr. Liu: "Master Liu, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? I revealed my identity to Mr. Ling, but I didn't expect that Mr. Ling not only did not stop his atrocities, but even got more victorious. He said that he wanted to speak out for you, Mr. Du. Otherwise, how could the officer's injury be so serious?"
"That's right, Mr. Du. Not only did Master Ling beat the two of us, but he also said that he was not afraid of us going to His Majesty to file a complaint. The father of the three of them was the Minister of the Sixth Division. Not to mention hurting us, we were not afraid even if he was beaten to death.
!”
Du Chenghao and the others frowned, and couldn't help but sweat a little.
Based on what I know about my boys, it is really possible for these bastards to say such things.
But what they were most afraid of was what the emperor would think of this sentence.
Thinking carefully about it, this was also the case after they caused trouble in the past, but the victim could only endure it because of the power behind them.
Unexpectedly, this time they actually provoked a person who was no less powerful than them, so they went home and lied!
Several people looked at each other and couldn't rule out this possibility.
If we don’t say that mice are naturally afraid of cats, then the wolf will eventually come true!
The words that Young Master Liu made up casually were very similar to the past habits of Du Yu and others, even though their fathers could not help but favor the two 'victims' side, Young Master Liu.
Subconsciously looking at the emperor on the side, seeing his slightly narrowed eyes, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "I cannot ask your majesty's forgiveness for my godson!"
"Have you admitted that my son committed a murder on the street?"
Du Chenghao and the other five glanced at Liu Dashao and Liu Dashao who were lying on the ground. He and others also checked the wound. It was not fake. In addition, they still had some idea of their son's virtues. They had nothing to say.
.
"I admit it and am willing to be punished!"
"In recognition of your hard work and merits, I will fine you three months' salary and compensate Liu Aiqing and his wife one thousand taels for their decoction and medicine. Can you accept the penalty?"
"I accept my punishment!"
"Go back and discipline Du Yu and the others properly. I have heard about their reputation for being arrogant and domineering in the capital. It is the fault of a son to not teach his father. Don't regret it for a year!"
"Yes, yes, I will not dare to forget it."
"Liu Aiqing, Marquis of Guannei, are you satisfied with this treatment?"
Liu Mingzhi and the other two people did not agree immediately. They glanced between Du Chenghao and the others, and only made them feel embarrassed before reluctantly replying: "I agree!"
Several people felt a little embarrassed when they saw this. Being beaten like this and given a few painless punishments was really hard to convince the crowd.
Upon seeing this, Li Zheng directly ignored the matter of Wanyang. In this state, let alone presiding over the border trade, whether he could get out of bed and walk was one thing.
"Allow Liu Aiqing to recuperate for three months and then retire from the court."
"I'll take my leave."
After the officials left, Li Zheng glanced at Zhou Fei: "Check, what's going on!"
