The first half of the sentence made Mi Xiayao shocked and lamented that His Majesty could so easily give the other party a status of literary honor.
In the second half of the sentence, Pei Xingyuan's expression suddenly changed, and he was frozen in mid-air while making a bow.
"Your Majesty... I still have three major murder cases that have not yet been investigated."
His face became a little embarrassed.
But the emperor didn't care what Pei Xingyuan thought. He also gave him a house and even his wife's book. He didn't even sell his life to the world.
"Then I have decided to take back the responsibilities that I just said I would give you as Doctor Yazhong. I don't need to give you a house anymore. Let's just pretend that nothing happened."
After saying that, the emperor waved his sleeves, and he was very talkative and wanted to drive people away.
Pei Xingyuan's eyebrows twitched fiercely, "I know I was wrong."
Mi Xiayao:?You bowed your head so quickly?!
It can be seen that the emperor has already mastered Pei Xingyuan's temper, and his warm and angry expression immediately turned into a kind smile.
"In a few days, won't it be Lady Mi's birthday? A few days ago, I heard the queen say that there are several lady officials in the palace who celebrate their birthdays together, and it's very lively."
The emperor's eyes fell on Mi Xiayao, and Mi Xiayao, who looked at her with smiling eyes, secretly felt that something was not good.
"It's my birthday, and I'm Xiao Pei's sweetheart. How can I treat Mi Mi badly and then give Mi Mi a benefit in a few days?"
"I thank your Majesty for your kindness."
She braced herself and bowed in response.
This sweetness was almost given. The Buddha beads in the Queen's hand were placed on the table, and the collision between the Bodhi and the wooden table was very crisp.
Suddenly, the temperature in the royal study also dropped drastically.
"Come to think of it, although Daqi's folk customs have always been open and there are not too many restrictions on women, they still have to have the required moral character and threshold. Otherwise, what will the world of Daqi be like in the future?"
Mi Xiayao and Pei Xingyuan didn't even dare to look at each other this time, they lowered their heads in perfect agreement.
The two bold people who usually dared to speak harsh words to Prince Qin Qiao, now faced with the emperor who was more powerful than him, in the final analysis were still timid.
"You get pregnant before you are married, you talk to a man who has no parents, and you talk about matchmaking, and then you make a private decision for life, and you even have a child of a very young age. You even have extremely weak awareness of the child's early years!
"You are among the top officials in Daqi, and your ranking is not low. As a leader, this is how you repay me?"
The emperor scolded, and Long Yan was furious.
"From now on, Miss Mi will be suspended for half a month. Several cases involving Mr. Pei will be handed over to the Right Shaoqing of Dali Temple to handle. You two will stay in the mansion to repent and think about your mistakes."
"I know."
"My daughter knows."
The two of them answered the conversation calmly, and when the emperor said nothing, they both exited the imperial study.
Wait until the two of them walk out of the palace.
Mi Xiayao had endured her temper for a long time and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"His Majesty the Imperial Study just reacted like that. He said he would give me a big gift in the next few days. What kind of gift is this? The imperial edict granting marriage will be issued sooner or later, right?"
She grabbed Pei Xingyuan's collar, narrowed her beautiful eyes dangerously, bit her back teeth, and said angrily.
Pei Xingyuan let her control him, with a hidden smile in his deep red phoenix eyes, and he raised his eyebrows.
"Isn't this good? If we deepen our cooperative relationship, we will be like grasshoppers in the same boat in the future, my future wife."
"Who wants to be your husband and wife? I finally jumped out of the fire pit of the Duan family. I haven't lived enough free days. I haven't seen the beautiful scenery of the world, and I haven't seen what it means to be truly romantic..."
She let go of Pei Xingyuan's collar, turned her head and looked up at the dark sky with a vague look of despair.
The sky is dotted with stars, seemingly prosperous and bright, but these lights cannot shine into Mi Xiayao's heart.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more I think about it, the sadder I get.
At the end of the day, my nose was even slightly sour, and my eyes gradually became misty.
Pei Xingyuan looked down at his messy collar, and was about to straighten his clothes.
But he heard the woman's slightly whimpering tone, and her knuckled hands paused for a moment.
"My background is currently clean."
He coughed slightly, and what he said was obviously very unnatural.
But soon he automatically skipped this topic and truthfully told his situation.
"Now I am the only one living in the mansion in the capital. If your Majesty really ties us together, you will not be wronged when you come to my mansion.
"But the only bad thing is that the money in my family may not be as strong as yours. The salary of Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple is more than enough for me alone. If I can support you and Xiaobao——"
This man was really caught up in fantasy. He pretended to be thoughtful and said: "It really doesn't work. Even if I sell everything, I will have to keep you and your son fat and white."
Baibai is fat?!
Mi Xiayao turned around suddenly, her tearful beautiful eyes, coupled with her charming oval face, gave her an indescribably broken beauty.
But her beautiful eyes held a warm and angry emotion.
"Who wants to live with you? Just guard your shabby house!"
After saying these words, Mi Xiayao picked up her skirt and went straight to the carriage she came from.
Pei Xingyuan's emotional theory was weak and he didn't know which of his words made her unhappy again.
He called Xia Yao, but the other party didn't even look back.
The direction of the carriage was not to the royal suburbs, but to drive directly back to the small courtyard next to Mi Mansion.
Anyway, she will be declared grounded tomorrow, and she will be embarrassed again when she goes to the suburbs.
She couldn't afford to lose this person.
——
The next day, the news in the palace spread completely.
The case of Mr. Pei, Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple, can be regarded as a complete meritorious service. The imperial edict was issued, just like the conversation in the imperial study room last night.
With the help of Wen Xun from the third-grade Yazhong doctor, Pei Xingyuan was rewarded with a third-grade house.
Suddenly, Pei Xingyuan's reputation in the capital was completely ruined.
At the same time, the emperor's oral instructions came from the palace, harshly criticizing the Miao family for their incompetence in educating their children. This time, Miao Qi's face was completely ruined.
Miao was scolded, and Mi Xiayao naturally did not escape the emperor's scolding.
Mi Xiayao was confined to a separate garden and asked to repent and repent and copy the female precepts; Pei Xingyuan was banned from the palace and removed from all duties at hand and was required to repent and copy the national laws.
The noisy scene shocked everyone in the capital.
The emperor's method of slapping a sweet date was a normal procedure.
Some smart people discovered in advance that the emperor was not simply scolding the Miao family of the old family.
Some military generals of the Miao family who were officials in the court were affected by this turmoil to varying degrees, and were either demoted or demoted.
Mi Xiayao learned this news from her father Mi Hanhai a few days after being banned.
