Abandoned daughter Liuyue

Chapter 123 Apologizing (Part [-])

While thinking about it, all the ministers pleaded with the emperor, saying: "Your Majesty, although the Prime Minister is guilty, the crime is not enough to dismiss him from office. Please also investigate clearly!"

"Yes, Emperor, as far as I know, the Prime Minister's first wife has passed away, and he has no successor marriage. It is understandable that he treats the concubine better."

"Your majesty, I think that the prime minister should be punished, but not dismissed."

"Your Majesty, I support His Highness the Crown Prince's views. The Prime Minister behaves like this, and he is no longer worthy of being a role model for all officials. A person who spoils his concubine and destroys his wife can't even handle family affairs well, so how can he gain a foothold in the court?"

"Your majesty, I think that the prime minister's salary can be fined, or even suspended, but he should not be dismissed."

"Your Majesty, I think that..."

All the ministers expressed their opinions, and the whole hall seemed noisy, which gave the emperor a headache, and signaled to Eunuch Lin beside him to keep everyone quiet.

After receiving the decree, Eunuch Lin shouted loudly: "Quiet!"

As soon as the words came out, all the officials closed their mouths, and the hall finally calmed down, looking up at the emperor.

The emperor's eyes swept over the ministers, and finally landed on Chu Zong who was kneeling on the ground, and said: "Prime Minister Chu Zong spoils his concubines and destroys his wives, treats his daughter-in-law harshly, fines her salary for one year, and returns to the mansion to contemplate behind closed doors for three months. "

As soon as these words came out, the ministers finally breathed a sigh of relief.Di Jiutian had also expected this result a long time ago, so he didn't show any expression on his face. He glanced at Chu Zong indifferently and then withdrew his gaze.

Today, although Chu Zong failed to lose his official position, he was taught a lesson, and he finally let out a sigh of relief for Chu Liuyue.If Chu Zong knew the truth, he should treat Chu Liuyue well in the future, otherwise it would not be as simple as punishing his salary and thinking behind closed doors.

Chu Zong finally breathed a sigh of relief when his official position was preserved.After thanking him, he stood up, only to realize that his body was already drenched with sweat.

"If you have a copy, you can withdraw from the court without a copy." Eunuch Lin shouted, seeing that no one had a copy, he shouted again: "Retire from the court!"

All the ministers left the court, and Chu Zong rushed home in a hurry.

Only then did he know that the old lady was right.If he wanted to be an official, he had to please Chu Liuyue, otherwise his official position would be lost at some point.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Zong first went to Zhaohui Hall to meet the old lady, and after telling what happened during the early morning court, he said: "Mother, my son is wrong. Please forgive my son for his momentary confusion."

"You!" The old lady pointed at Chu Zong, not knowing what to say about him.

Hearing what happened this morning, she still has lingering fears.It seems that His Highness the Crown Prince just wanted to teach Chu Zong a lesson, if he really wanted to dismiss him from office, he would not act like this.

"Mother, in the future, you need to mention more about your son." Chu Zong said seriously, because he thought too simply before.He felt that although His Royal Highness favored Chu Liuyue, he would not use him as a knife.After all, he is an important minister in the court.

But this morning's appearance made him understand that Chu Liuyue holds a lot of weight in His Highness the Crown Prince's heart, and he has to treat her better in the future, otherwise the next time it won't be like today, with less thunder and rain .

"Okay, since you know you were wrong, then go and apologize to Liu Yue."

"Yes, son, go here."

Chu Zong left Chaohui Hall and went straight to Linglong Courtyard.

In Linglong Courtyard, Chu Liuyue was reading the geography about the empire, and she was not surprised when she heard Dongqing say that Chu Zong was here, and ordered: "Please come in!"
