Bright lights flickered one after another, and three figures quietly gathered in the hall.
The middle-aged man in silver armor bowed his head and said with fear, "My subordinate Pan De pays homage to the emperor and empress."
Behind him, a mature woman with still charming charm and a handsome young man with long hair also knelt down in fear and said with fear: "We will pay homage to the emperor and empress."
Qiao Wantang said nothing and sipped the tea carefully.
An turned a blind eye to the three people's greetings and turned a deaf ear.
The man in silver armor rolled and crawled close to the white jade stairs leading to the throne above, and said with tears in his eyes: "Empress, my subordinates made mistakes, please punish me."
"My nephew is blind and misbehaves in the inner courtyard. It is because of my uncle's lax discipline that he has lost the face of the Immortal Palace."
"I......"
"I just hope that the emperor and empress can open their eyes and give him a chance to change his mind."
"My subordinate promises that he will never make such a mistake again."
"Empress, please, please."
"Bang bang bang."
His head was banging and his head was bleeding.
But he didn't seem to know the pain, and kept banging his head against the ground.
In the back, a mature woman said with tears in her eyes: "Empress, I have brought up Bin'er and Bo'er since they were young. I am their aunt, and I can also be regarded as half of their mother."
"Bin'er is kind-hearted in nature, but he is too strong and wants to catch up with Bo'er and become his direct disciple."
"So, that's why he went to great lengths to seek resources and wanted to prove to us that his talent is as good as anyone's."
The long-haired young man was probably the calmest among the three. He cupped his hands and said with firm eyes: "Master, the eldest brother is your father."
"My eldest brother was buried in the Xuanyin Sea fifteen years ago and died at the hands of demons."
"As my second brother, I should take the responsibility of teaching my younger brother. The huge mistake he made today is all because of my love and care."
"I am willing to be punished on behalf of my third brother, please accept your permission, Master."
Bow down and kowtow.
After kneeling three times and bowing nine times, he quietly waited for the man on the throne to speak.
"you......"
"Oh, are you here to blackmail me?"
After sipping the fragrant tea, Qiao Wantang narrowed her enchanting eyes and stood up lightly and said: "The unwritten ethos of the inner courtyard and the collusion between the inner disciples and the direct disciples should really be taken care of."
"Killing chickens to scare monkeys, but the death of Qiu Bangyan is not enough to act as a deterrent."
The silver-armored man's face was ashen, and his arms on the ground kept shaking and said: "Empress, can't you give Bin'er a way to survive?"
"My husband and I have followed you for thousands of years, and we have worked hard without any merit."
"Bo'er is your direct disciple, he..."
Before he finished speaking, Qiao Wantang interrupted him on the spot with a frosty face: "I left Zhong Bin a way to survive, but what about Ji Yu and Suning?"
"The three of you know who caused this incident."
"I don't want to say more if I'm being merciless. As you said, you and your wife will have no merit and hard work by following me."
"Whether it's merit or hard work, the consequences can be clearly calculated and distinguished."
The man in silver armor begged bitterly: "Empress."
Qiao Wantang was unmoved and said: "If it weren't for the sake of past friendship, you wouldn't even have a chance to ask for mercy."
"Hong Po, after this matter is over, Zhong Bin, you go handle it."
"As for you..."
"You and your wife will each be demoted one level, and Zhong Bo will not be allowed to receive training resources for ten years."
