The Duke of Lu beat the drum of injustice and filed a complaint against the emperor. Xiao Chongjun was unexpected, especially the person he was suing was the regent. As for the cause and effect of the matter, he is still confused.
But no matter what the reason for the lawsuit was, it gave him a headache.
The Duke of Lu was his respected mentor, and the Lu family was kind to him, so they indulged a little.
Not to mention Xiao Chengyi, he has always been partial to this nephew, and this nephew is a person who can't tolerate sand in his eyes.
When these two people met, he, the emperor, was the only one who suffered.
It's been more than half an hour, and Xiao Chengyi hasn't come yet. Could it be that he knows that his uncle is in trouble, so he doesn't come with an excuse?
It would be better if that bastard didn't come, so that he could prevaricate and then find an opportunity to appease Duke Lu and let the matter go away.
Just as he was making his wishful thinking, he heard the eunuch's voice coming from outside: "The regent and the princess protecting the country have arrived!"
Xiao Chongjun: "..."
Did this brat do it on purpose?
But people have already arrived, so he can only sit upright.
Xiao Chengyi held Mu Yun'an's hand and walked into the palace under the watchful eyes of everyone. They both paid homage to the emperor on the dragon throne.
Xiao Chongjun looked at these two people standing together. They were such a beautiful couple.
In particular, Princess Mu Yun'an, who protects the country, is bright and charming, and her behavior is not timid at all. She really has the grace of a tiger girl. It is no wonder that her nephew is obsessed with her.
He had long wanted to meet the Princess Protector, but he didn't expect it would be such an occasion.
Xiao Chongjun looked away, coughed lightly and said, "Princess, there is no need to be polite."
Mu Yun'an stood up and stood beside Xiao Chengyi in an orderly manner.
Duke Lu Guo had been waiting impatiently for a long time. He was old and could no longer stand after standing for such a while, but His Majesty did not give him a seat.
He snorted and said, "The Prince Regent is so arrogant that he made His Majesty wait for so long."
As he said that, he asked the guard who went to invite Xiao Chengyi: "How do you do things?"
The guard was shocked and hurriedly knelt on the ground and apologized: "Your Majesty, forgive me."
Xiao Chongjun frowned in displeasure and heard Xiao Chengyi say: "Your Majesty, don't blame him. I promised the princess before to go shopping with her.
As the saying goes, a man keeps his promise and cannot go back on what he has promised. Therefore, I accompanied the princess to go shopping first, and then I arrived too late."
Xiao Chongjun's lips twitched and he looked at his nephew with a speechless expression.
The Duke of Lu seemed to have caught something, and said loudly with some excitement: "Your Majesty, did you hear it?
The Regent, as a minister, disregards His Majesty's will, which is disrespectful to His Majesty. Should Your Majesty still protect such a rebellious person?"
Xiao Chengyi turned his head, glanced over with a cold look and said, "Why am I so disrespectful to Your Majesty? Your Majesty summoned me, didn't I come?"
Lu Guogong said: "You made His Majesty wait for more than half an hour in order to accompany the princess of the protector country to go shopping. Isn't this disrespectful?"
Xiao Chengyi sneered: "If you really want to talk about this, the disrespectful person should be you, Duke Lu.
