After saying this, the Minister of Punishment took out a letter and presented it with both hands.

Duofu took the folder from him, and after routine inspection, presented it to the emperor.

The emperor took the folder, opened it, and sneered: "Sun Chengwen is really cunning and shameless. He opened a silver mine privately and raised private soldiers. He actually impeached King Xuan for embezzling silver mines and used his private soldiers for his own use!"

Continuing to read, the sneer got even worse, "This old man also said that Princess Xuan colluded with Nanyun Youhan to lure the wolf into the house, and also hinted that Princess Xuan and Nanyun Youhan had an affair!"

The Minister of Punishment knelt down and remonstrated: "Your Majesty, Sun Chengwen's crime is indeed unpardonable, but King Xuan's move must be guarded against! Moreover, Princess Xuan and Nanyun Youhan's childhood sweethearts..."

"Pah!" Before he could finish his words, the paper hit him hard on the forehead.

The folder was covered with a thin wooden board and was very thick and hard. A cut was made on his forehead, and blood immediately flowed out.

"Old minister, I'm scared!" the Minister of Punishment knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

The emperor's eyes were cold and he shouted sharply: "As an important minister of the imperial court, when did you become a talkative woman? If you are a rebellious minister, you come to me and talk nonsense without any evidence! At such an old age, you are in vain.

Are you alive? Don’t think that I don’t know what you and the Queen Mother are planning!”

The emperor became angry and his corpse floated thousands of miles away.

The Minister of Punishment did not dare to raise his head and said tremblingly: "Old minister, I know you are guilty! I am terrified!"

The emperor sneered again and again, "Afraid? I see that you are so audacious and want to monopolize the power of your relatives, so that I will turn against brother Xuan Wang and disrupt the entire Dongming, so that people like you and others with wolfish ambitions can take advantage of it!"

"Old minister, I don't dare. Old minister, you are unjust!" The Minister of Punishment kowtowed repeatedly, making a thumping sound when his head hit the ground.

He was indeed wronged. He never wanted his relatives to be in power. He only thought about the emperor's throne!

The emperor said coldly: "If you don't share your worries for me, you will stir up trouble! There is no money in the treasury, why did you go there? Why did you go when there was a war at the border? Why did you go when the people were poor? You know this every day.

My wife’s tongue is a source of trouble!”

The Minister of Punishment is the emperor's grandfather. Being scolded by the emperor like this made him feel ashamed and angry.

But the emperor is also the king of a country, and he is the king. He can only kowtow and beg for mercy. Otherwise, if the emperor gives the order, let alone him, the entire Zhao family will be in bad luck.

When the emperor saw the gray hair of the Minister of Punishment, he was still kneeling there and kowtowing repeatedly. A hint of unbearability flashed in his eyes, and he said solemnly: "In the future, if there is no conclusive evidence, don't bring it up in front of me. I am the king of a country.

Not a market woman!"

The Minister of Punishment kowtowed: "Old minister, I obey the order!"

The emperor waved his hand, "Step back!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I retire!" The Minister of Punishment kowtowed, stood up tremblingly, bent over and retreated out of the door.

He retreated to the door, turned around, and his vision went dark. He kicked his foot on the high threshold, fell to the ground, and fainted.

The emperor was shocked, "Xuan Yuyi!"

He stood up while holding the imperial desk, but because he had stood up so violently, stars flashed in front of his eyes, and he fell down on the dragon chair again.

Duofu was shocked, "Yi Xuan! Doctor Xuan!"

The eunuchs and maids carried the Minister of Punishment into the Imperial Study Room and lifted the Emperor onto the couch. There was a moment of panic and confusion.

The ministers who were waiting for something to happen outside were so frightened that they wanted to run away when they heard the emperor's roar. When they saw the Minister of Punishment fainting at the door of the imperial study with blood on his face, they were all so frightened that they wished they could become invisible.

The two imperial doctors arrived soon. The emperor felt that he was fine. He leaned on the couch and said to the Minister of Justice who was lying on the ground: "I'm fine. Let's check with Mr. Zhao first."

An imperial doctor was half-kneeling on the ground, feeling the pulse of the Minister of Punishment.

Another imperial doctor knelt on the ground and took the emperor's pulse. After checking the pulse, he looked at the emperor's tongue coating and the whites of his eyes, and replied: "To inform the emperor, the emperor is suffering from wind-cold syndrome again."

The emperor had a splitting headache and was feeling cold all over. He had already guessed the outcome, so he waved his hand and asked the imperial doctor to go down and prescribe a prescription.

At this time, another imperial doctor also checked Shangshu's pulse, looked at his eyelids, and then reported back to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhao's mood swings were too high and he suffered a serious blow to the head.

It will cause fainting. Weichen will wake up after using the needle, and he will need to rest for several days before he can fully recover."

The emperor rubbed his forehead and said, "Let's do the acupuncture."

The imperial doctor gave the Minister of Punishment an acupuncture to wake him up, and then he drank a dose of medicine before the emperor ordered him to be sent out of the palace.

The emperor urgently announced to the imperial doctor that this was a big deal, and soon the entire palace knew about it.

When the Queen Mother heard that her old father had fainted in the imperial study room with blood on his face, she smashed the tea bowl in her hand on the floor of the bedroom, breaking it into pieces.

"The treasonous son! The treacherous son! The foolish king! Wuwuwu..."

The Queen Mother was so angry that she cried weakly. What evil had she done? Why did she give birth to such a rebellious son who didn't know what was good or bad?

The servants were as silent as cicadas, and did not dare to express their anger. A nun secretly went out and sent someone to invite His Highness.

His Highness the Tenth Prince was in the Emperor's study room at this time. "My brother was shocked when he heard that the Emperor's brother had been declared a doctor. I hope the Emperor's health is not serious."

He frowned, worried and concerned.

The emperor chuckled happily, and said with some distress: "I'm fine, I just feel the cold occasionally, which makes Xiao Shi worried."

His Highness the Tenth Highness said disapprovingly: "Brother Imperial is a noble person. It is a big deal to lose even one cold hair, let alone the wind and cold. Brother Imperial, you must take care of yourself and don't be too tired. You are the guard of honor for my brother and my mother."

, if it were you...how would my brother and my mother survive..."

As he spoke, he choked up with sobs, and two big teardrops hung on his long eyelashes, unwilling to fall.

The emperor felt warm in his heart, yes, if something happened to him, what would he do if he left this orphan and widowed mother?

The brothers will definitely compete for the throne, and His Royal Highness, as his biological brother, will bear the brunt.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine!" The Emperor lovingly touched His Highness's hair.

Two lines of tears flowed from His Highness's big eyes, and his head rubbed against the Emperor's hand.

This is an action they often interacted with when they were young, but I don’t know when, and they haven’t done it for a long time.

A flash of emotion flashed in the Emperor's eyes, and he wiped the tears from His Highness's face with a handkerchief. Seeing the tears flowing more and more fiercely, he laughed and said, "Fool, they said I'm fine, why are I still crying like this?"

His Highness the Tenth Prince burst into tears, "Brother Emperor... yes, I'm sorry... wuwu..."

The emperor's eyes darkened slightly, he put his hands on his young shoulders, and asked softly: "Why did you say you're sorry?"

His Highness the Tenth Prince's hands suddenly clenched into fists and shrank into his sleeves, indicating that he was very nervous.

The emperor pulled him close to his arms, hugged him gently, pinched his red nose from crying lovingly, and said in a bewitching voice: "We are brothers. No matter what you do, you will never do it for us."

Brother will forgive you. So, if you have anything, you can tell me."
