I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 52 The Prime Minister Misunderstood~
"Oh?"

"Prime Minister, why did you say that?"

Sitting back on the couch leisurely, the emperor Liu Qi only had a calm expression on his face, and there was a trace of extremely deliberate doubt in his eyes looking at Shentu Jia.

"Under the feet of the Son of Heaven, the heavens and the earth are clear;"

"There is someone who dares to destroy the temple of my ancestor Liu?"

"The prime minister's words, it can't be true~"

"—Aren't you scaremongering?"

When he obviously asked a hypocritical question, Liu Qi smiled and shook his head again.

"I know;"

"The emperor's seventh son, Peng Zu, and the ninth son, Sheng, are all students of the prime minister."

"But in the past, I always heard that the prime minister's late Anhou Shen Tujia, he was a breeze in his sleeves, and he was upright;"

"Even my relatives and nephews came to the door, and they never used power for personal gain or cared about personal feelings."

"Why today, in front of me and all the ministers, in order to protect his students, the prime minister fabricated something out of nothing and fabricated things that never happened?"

Asked again, Emperor Liu Qi couldn't help but stood up again, put his hands behind his back, and walked two steps left and right while laughing.

"Oh······"

"I know."

After saying something thoughtful, Liu Qi turned sideways and looked at Shentu Jia again with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Prime Minister, there is no need to be like this~"

"Even if these two worthless sons of mine are convicted of treason today, they will definitely not implicate the prime minister~"

"I know, the Prime Minister must be ignorant of this matter~"

Listening to Liu Qiman's hypocritical soliloquy, although the ministers still pressed their foreheads tightly to the ground, they couldn't help but have a little weird expression on their faces.

And in the center of the hall, Shen Tujia was even more angry, and no longer cared about etiquette, he straightened up from the ground angrily, and pointed his hand at Chao Cuo who was beside the imperial couch!
"Chao Cuo!"

"Don't you dare to admit the good deeds you have done yourself!!"

"How dare you lie to Your Majesty in front of all the ministers!!!"

Said indignantly, Shen Tujia only withdrew his hand and stared at Liu Qi intently.

"If your Majesty doesn't believe what I said, you can send someone to investigate outside the Taimiao!"

"If His Majesty can't even trust the palace people around him, His Majesty can go and check it himself!"

"—At this moment, a door opening nine feet long and wide has been smashed out on the outer wall of the Supreme Emperor's Temple!"

The more he spoke, the angrier Shentu Jia became, and he simply didn't suppress the anger in his chest anymore.

"The ancestor's temple was pierced, yet His Majesty is still sitting down?"

"You still have leisure time to slander the old minister here?"

"—The rebellious officials and thieves who dug open the Supreme Emperor's Temple are hiding behind His Majesty at this moment!"

"Your Majesty, how dare you point your back at the rebellious officials and thieves who dare to damage the Taimiao?!"

Listening to Shentu Jia's hysterical roar, Liu Qi was still calm, as if what Shentu Jia said had nothing to do with him.

Smiling and lowering his head, he walked leisurely to the edge and sat down again; pretending to ponder for a moment, the emperor Liu Qi raised his head.

"Oh~"

"The prime minister said, so this is the matter..."

He said something as if suddenly enlightened, and saw Liu Qi laughing and turned sideways, looking at Chao Cuo beside him.

"I'll just say it~"

"For such an important matter, the prime minister should have been informed long ago."

"This, isn't it the internal history?"

As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, Chao Cuo bowed to Liu Qi without hesitation.

"Your Majesty's lesson is..."

"Recently, I have been so busy with official duties that I even forgot to report to the prime minister for such an important matter..."

Seemingly reproachful, he glanced at Chao Cuo beside him, and saw Liu Qi turn around again, looking at Shen Tujia with an apologetic smile.

It was also at this moment that Emperor Liu Qi looked at Shen Tujia with a look of deliberate respect.

"I'm afraid the prime minister has misunderstood;"

"This matter has been reported to me earlier in the internal history."

"—Neishi belongs to the Yamen, which is located outside the east wall of Weiyang Palace. It is really inconvenient to go to the Sima Gate on the north wall to enter and exit the palace."

"Just outside the Taishanghuang Temple, there is an outer wall of a residential building;"

"As long as this layer is opened, the internal history can enter and exit the palace from the gate leading to the palace from the Supreme Emperor's Temple."

Speaking peacefully, Liu Qi finally stood up with a wry smile, bowed slightly to Shentu Jia.

"Nei Shi Chao Cuo was once my teacher;"

"I couldn't bear to let the teacher have to work hard every day on the way in and out of the palace at such a young age, so I ordered to dig down the outer wall of the residential house."

"It's my fault that I forgot to inform the prime minister about this in advance..."

After saying that, Liu Qi bowed to Shen Tujia in a 'sincere' manner, expressing his apology;
But after saluting, Liu Qi, who sat back on the imperial couch, did not forget to add: "Since it was a misunderstanding, Prime Minister, don't blame the internal history anymore."

"If you really want to blame it, it's because I have a bad memory. I was busy with state affairs all day long, but I forgot about it..."

Talking casually, Liu Qi finally remembered the officials and ministers who were still prostrate in the hall, so he called them to get up;

But even after standing up, the crowd didn't intend to take a seat at the side of the hall, they just bowed their heads sideways with strange expressions, and looked towards the center of the hall, still full of righteous indignation Shentu Jia.

——At this point, who can't see it: Emperor Liu Qi, is this determined to protect Chao Cuo?

But Prime Minister Shen Tujia has always been a character who can't rub the sand in his eyes;

How could Liu Qi give up on Shen Tujia so blatantly covering up?

"I'm afraid this time, Prime Minister, I'm really going to confront His Majesty..."

"Ugh······"

"If you don't agree with each other, it may not be an auspicious omen..."

While everyone shook their heads and sighed, Shen Tujia became more and more excited. Looking into Liu Qi's eyes, he wished he could stare like a bull!

Residential exterior walls?

- nonsense! ! !
Where are the outer walls of residential buildings made of dark bricks? !

Who would dare to live inside a wall made of dark bricks? !
Liu Qi's explanation was clearly to cover up Chao Cuo! ! !

Thinking of this, Shentujia's last shred of sanity was shattered;

Looking at Liu Qi, it was like an elder looking at an ineffective junior, full of hatred for him!

"That's not the outer wall of a residential building at all!"

"——It's the wall of the Supreme Emperor's Temple!!!"

"In the past, His Majesty always turned a blind eye to Chao Cuo's mistakes because Chao Cuo was His Majesty's teacher, and the old minister never said anything!"

"But now, in order to protect Chao Cuo, Your Majesty even wants to excuse Chao Cuo's crime of disturbing the Supreme Emperor?!"

"If this goes on like this, I am worried that this ancestral temple and Sheji will no longer belong to the Liu family!!!"

A yell without hesitation caused everyone in the hall to be shocked again!
Even Liu Qi, who was sitting on the imperial couch, suddenly sank when he heard Shentu Jia's roar.

However, Shentu Jia still did not give up, knelt down very slowly with a heartbroken expression.

Then, there was an incomparably loud cry that resounded over the Xuanshi Hall...

"Old official Anhou Shen Tujia, I'm ignorant of death!"

"Please Your Majesty!!"

"Severely punish the traitor Chao Cuo!!!"

"Your Majesty, I can't go on wrong..."

"——Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Taizong Xiaowen left the ancestral temple and the country, and His Majesty can no longer be squandered like this!!!!!!"
