Chapter 278 The emperor is crazy!

What happened in Nancheng quickly spread throughout Shengjing City.

Power-centered people are far more sensitive to their living environment than ordinary people.

After the old steward returned to Zuo Xiang's Mansion and reported the situation clearly, Zuo Xiang didn't even care about the spiritual tea he had just brewed in the spiritual spring. He ordered someone to change him into official uniform, and then hurried out.

The old manager was still thinking about how to find an opportunity to leave, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come to him so easily.

However, looking at the retreating figure of Prime Minister Zuo, the manager suddenly hesitated.

The old steward has served the left prime minister for decades, and he knows his master's temper very well.

The left prime minister reacted so violently just now, obviously he has realized that something cannot be done.

He knew that he had been abandoned by the royal family, so he couldn't care less about his face and hurriedly went to the palace to find the emperor to give in.

This is the reason why the old manager hesitated.

After all, his master is the left prime minister and has a pivotal position in the court.

The old steward's family relied on Zuoxiang's Mansion and enjoyed prosperity and wealth for decades.

The old manager is backed by the left prime minister. He has relied on his power to survive these years and has no ability to rely on himself.

If the left prime minister had not been abandoned by the royal family and the old manager was forced to a dead end, he would not be able or willing to leave the left prime minister's house.

Now that the left prime minister is willing to give in, the emperor might let him step down.

In this way, the left prime minister can go to the new world.

Their family can continue to go to the new world with Zuo Xiang to enjoy the glory and wealth.

But there are risks in doing so.

If the emperor couldn't give the left minister a chance, then they would have missed the last chance to leave.

On the way back, the old manager had already sent someone to investigate, and the final transfer deadline set by His Royal Highness was today.

There will be no more transfers after today.

The left prime minister was so anxious just after hearing the news.

If the emperor did not take the left minister with him, the boss and his family would be buried with him.

Maybe he won't die for a while, but don't expect to have a good life.

So, it's a big gamble.

If you win the bet, your descendants will be able to enjoy prosperity and wealth for at least a few more decades.

If you lose, you will return to your original shape overnight and continue to be a jerk.

Thinking of this, the old housekeeper couldn't help rubbing his hand on the crutch, trying to calm down the anxiety caused by making a major decision.

The sun gradually sets in the west, but the old manager still has not made a decision, and the left prime minister has not returned.

At first, the old manager thought this was a good thing and was very excited.

The left prime minister did not come back, so he could only be left in the palace by the emperor.

This shows that the emperor and his ministers have cleared up their past feud.

The left prime minister will follow the emperor to the new world, and their family will be able to rely on the big tree and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.

However, when the sun went down and the palace gates closed, the left prime minister still did not come back, and the old manager suddenly felt that something was wrong.

The court has rules that foreign ministers are not allowed to stay in the palace unless there are major special circumstances.

Since the founding of the Zhao Dynasty, this rule has never been broken.

The old manager obviously didn't think it was a special situation for the left prime minister to go to the emperor to surrender.

Unless the emperor has a special relationship with the left prime minister.

But is this possible?

The queen has been cultivating herself in the past two years and has indeed been vegetarian.

But she is not a vegetarian!

"Somebody come!"

Seeing that it was getting dark, the old manager knew that he could not wait any longer.

If you wait any longer, the deadline will pass.

Soon, the chief guard of Zuo Xiangfu walked in quickly from outside.

The captain of the guard was tall and burly, and his appearance was similar to that of the old steward. He was wearing leather armor and had a long knife on his waist. He looked majestic and imposing.

The head guard saluted the old steward and asked, "Father, what are your orders?"

The old steward looked at his son and said in a deep voice, "Take the people along the road out of the mansion and look in the direction of the palace to see if you can find any trace of the master." Master?

The captain of the guard was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively: "Father, has something happened to the prime minister?"

The old manager waved his hand, interrupted his son and said, "Don't ask so many questions, just follow my orders!"

After saying that, he told his son: "Whether you find the master or not, you must come back before dark, otherwise it will be too late!"

The captain of the guard is thoughtful and not as rough as he appears on the outside.

Hearing the old housekeeper's words, he immediately realized something. He glanced left and right and saw no one was around. He took two steps back and closed the door. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "Father, do you mean to transfer to the new world?"

The deadline for moving to the new world is dark, and many people know this.

The restless people in Shengjing City were also disturbed by this deadline.

There was no way the captain of the guard wouldn't know about such a big thing.

The old steward nodded slightly and said softly: "The head of the family entered the palace before because of this matter."

The old steward didn't finish his words, but the head guard already understood what he meant.

The captain of the guard said in a deep voice: "I will take people to find the head of the family. After finding him, I will ask the emperor's will as soon as possible. If it is determined that something has happened, I will rush back to join you as soon as possible, and then take Xuan'er and his family with him. leave!"

The old manager nodded approvingly: "Yes, let's act accordingly!"

After saying that, he emphasized again: "If you can't find the owner of the family, remember to return before dark, otherwise it will be too late!"

Upon hearing this, the chief guard gave a fist to the old steward, then opened the door, called to his guard servants, and left the house in a hurry.

The old manager watched his son leave and walked slowly in the main hall with a cane.

Time passed little by little, and the old manager's heart became heavier and heavier.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a sudden noise outside the door.

When the old manager heard the sound, he subconsciously raised his head and looked out the window. The sun was setting in the west and it was almost setting.

Oh, it's going to be dark soon.

Before the old manager could go out to investigate the situation, the head guard suddenly opened the door and walked in with rapid strides.

"Father, we found the master of the family!"

The captain of the guard knew that the situation was urgent and kept his story short: "When we rushed to the entrance of the palace, we saw the owner of the family lying in the grass on the roadside!"

"Is the master okay?" the old housekeeper asked subconsciously.

The old housekeeper has served the left prime minister for decades and still has some feelings for him.

Hearing that something happened to the left prime minister, his heart immediately lifted.

The head guard shook his head: "It's not life-threatening, but the owner of the house was beaten badly. There are injuries all over his body, and his face is so swollen that he is almost unrecognizable."

The old manager was stunned for a moment: "Who did it? Have you caught the murderer?"

Later, the old manager discovered something was wrong again.

The left prime minister was discovered by the chief of guard and others at the entrance of the palace.

The public security in Shengjing City has indeed become much worse recently, but no one is bold enough to beat the leftist prime minister of a country at the gate of the palace.

unless

The old manager's expression suddenly changed.

Then, he heard the guard captain lower his voice: "I asked someone to ask, and the bystanders said it was the emperor who did it."

emperor!

The old manager's heart suddenly sank.

The captain of the guard nodded: "I asked many people, and they all said that it was the emperor who beat him! While the emperor was beating him, he also scolded the head of the family!"

"The emperor scolds the master of the family?"

Although the old manager was shocked, he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

He asked: "What did the emperor curse?"

The chief guard said: "The emperor called the master a son of a bitch and said he had tolerated him for a long time."

The manager's mouth twitched hard, and then he thought of something and asked: "Where is the Queen? Will she let the Emperor do whatever he wants?"

The guard chief also twitched the corner of his mouth.

"The queen first slapped the master of the family to death, and then the emperor took action. Otherwise, the emperor might not be able to beat the master of the family!"
