173. Why are those bad things all relatives of your family?
If the prefect dares to go up and greet the emperor at this time, the best way is to pretend that the emperor is not present and leave as soon as possible.
Immediately, he bowed his hands to Shangguan Yu and said, "Goodbye."
As he stepped back, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and disappeared from everyone's sight.
After the prefect left, Shangguan Yu also said to the onlookers, "Okay, okay, it's okay, let's all disperse."
While she was dismissing them, she returned to the two Nangong Shuo and curled her lips slightly with satisfaction.
"Madam, you were so majestic just now."
Gu Zixu gave a thumbs up and deliberately called Shangguan Yu "Mrs. Sister-in-law". Apparently, he felt that someone beside him was a little stiff.
Shangguan Yu didn't care. Anyway, to her, no name sounded better than the dog emperor's "Xiaoyu".
At this time, Concubine Wang, who had been silent, began to come back to her senses. When she saw Nangong Shuo, she immediately ran towards him, "Your Majesty, look at the Queen..."
Wang Lin was about to complain to Shangguan Yu, but was frightened by Nangong Shuo's cold eyes.
"emperor......"
Wang Lin's voice suddenly dropped, and she looked at Nangong Shuo with a somewhat guilty look in her eyes.
I heard Nangong Shuo's deep voice slowly speaking, "If I remember correctly, this Magistrate Liu is your uncle, Concubine Ai, right?"
Although she still addressed her as my beloved concubine, the coldness in her words and the words she spoke made Wang Guifei shudder violently.
The reason why she stood there silently just now was because Magistrate Liu was her uncle and it was not convenient for her to come forward.
But now, the emperor came to pursue this matter with her. Could it be that he wanted to put the blame for her uncle's fault on her?
"Your Majesty, please be aware that I really didn't know that my uncle would withhold people's money. Please be aware of this, Your Majesty..."
Wang Guifei was so frightened that Nangong Shuo said this.
If this had happened to Shangguan Yu, she would have refuted Nangong Shuo with confidence.
for example--
My uncle breaks the law and it's nothing to do with me.
In fact, in fact, what Magistrate Liu did had nothing to do with the traitorous concubine. However, as soon as he saw the traitorous concubine frightened and panicked, Shangguan Yu thought it was very funny.
Seeing her rolling her eyes with disdain, she asked, "How come those bad guys are all relatives of your family?"
"you......"
Although Wang Lin wanted to refute Shangguan Yu, she also wanted to go up and have a fight with him.
But now, she felt wronged because Wang Zhifu was her uncle, and she lost the confidence to refute for a while.
Damn it, it's her uncle's fault for being too unsatisfactory. He was greedy for even a small amount of money. He was greedy when he was greedy, and he happened to be caught by the emperor.
I don’t know how this matter will be dealt with when the time comes.
After all, her uncle was from her mother's side of the family, and it was impossible for her aunt to have a random conflict with the emperor because of her uncle.
Just when she was distressed in her heart, Gu Zixu spoke up, breaking the deadlock.
"A Shuo, there must be more than one such thing. If the people have no way to seek help, I'm afraid as time goes by, the resentment among the people will become deeper and deeper."
Gu Zixu's words were not alarmist.
The country is people-oriented, and the emperor is the god of the people. If the emperor cannot stand up for the people and let them live a good life, then the rebellious mentality in the hearts of the people will become more and more serious.
