Since the regent entered the court, Nanyue's court has undergone earth-shaking changes, and he has dug out little by little the filth that was hidden in the dark.
Are you actually afraid too? Afraid that the regent has resorted to iron-blooded methods to deprive you of the title of Duke of Lu. Afraid that he, who is fearless, will destroy all those heroes one by one.
He defended Nanyue and let me see clearly how confused I have been over the years.
You, the Lu family, are kind to me, but how many evil things have you done based on this kindness?
I thought that you were the hero, so I turned a blind eye, but the consequence of doing so was that it allowed you to do whatever you wanted.
I didn't know that a young lady from the Duke's palace could be so prestigious? I originally wanted to expose what happened today. After all, you are old.
I want to save face for you, but you insist on being aggressive and push yourself to death. In this case, I will help you."
The Duke of Lu was shocked when he heard this and couldn't believe it.
Xiao Chongjun looked at his eyes, smiled and said: "What? Is the teacher surprised?
In your eyes, I respect you very much, and I will not refuse anything you ask for. Do you think you, a teacher, are more important than a nephew who is only half blood related?
Then you are wrong. I am standing on the basis of right and wrong, not distance or distance.
It is my fault that your Duke of Lu has relied on my favor to act arrogantly for so many years, and I will not condone it any longer."
Xiao Chongjun's face darkened and he said sternly: "The Regent listens to the decree."
Xiao Chengyi knelt on the ground.
Xiao Chongjun said: "I order you to thoroughly investigate the Duke of Lu's mansion and give me a thorough investigation to see what other unethical things they have done behind my back?"
Xiao Chengyi said loudly: "I accept the decree."
Xiao Chongjun nodded: "Come here, please invite Duke Lu back. Before the matter is found out, please forgive me and stay at home."
Duke Lu was horrified. He looked at the emperor on the throne and said with heartache: "Your Majesty, how could you? Have you forgotten how my son died? Have you forgotten how you promised me?"
Xiao Chongjun snorted coldly and said: "I have repaid your son's kindness long ago. Otherwise, how could your Lu family survive until now?"
He waved his hand: "Take it down."
The guards came forward and took Duke Lu down.
Silence returned to the main hall. Xiao Chengyi looked at the troubled emperor sitting on the throne and said, "Uncle, there is no need to be sad. It is the Lu family who is arrogant and self-destructed due to favor. It has nothing to do with you."
Xiao Chongjun sighed and said, "I originally wanted to save the face of the Lu family."
After all, there was kindness, and he didn't want to end up like this.
Xiao Chengyi said: "My uncle knew what they were doing but didn't deal with it. Is he actually afraid?
You are afraid that those heroes who followed you to conquer the world will eventually die in your hands, and you are afraid that the descendants of the common people will misunderstand you and say that you have no tolerance for others, and you will die as a dog."
Xiao Chongjun had to admit that he had this concern. He missed the kindness in the past and wanted to give them some dignity.
But something like power can really change people's minds.
