Emperor Zhou below spoke again, "Mu Zhao, entered the brothel as a woman, and as the culprit of the fire, he was punished with six months' imprisonment and ten thousand taels of gold."
Mu Zhao rolled his eyes. Well, these ten thousand taels of gold would eventually fall into the hands of Emperor Zhou.
Zhao Mingde was not convinced, "Your Majesty, Mu Zhao set the fire..."
"If she hadn't set the fire, I wouldn't know what my loved ones had done behind my back!"
Zhao Mingde's heart skipped a beat, "Your Majesty, I am aware of my guilt."
How could he forget that when His Majesty punished the Mu brothers and sisters, he would definitely be punished next.
He wanted the Mu brothers and sisters to be punished so much that he messed up the rules.
A group of ministers who went to the brothel also quickly admitted their mistake.
Emperor Zhou said, "This matter is ultimately my fault. I thought you were sensible, so I left you alone, but I ignored the bad nature of men."
He looked at Mu Ziqian and said, "Zi Qian, come up with a law that prohibits court officials from going to brothels. Your Ministry of Rites will decide the specific punishment."
Mu Ziqian accepted the order, "Yes"
"As for this time..." Emperor Zhou looked at the crowd again, "You must solve the problem of letting the people laugh at you."
Several people felt like they had narrowly escaped death and nodded "yes" repeatedly.
Mu Zhao pouted, "You guys don't understand Zhou Emperor thoroughly enough. This is not an escape from death, but the beginning of destruction."
After retreating from below, Emperor Zhou glanced in the direction of Yun Wuluo.
Yun Wuluo frowned in the dark. He knew that this was Emperor Zhou's signal for him to go to the Qinzheng Palace. He was very annoyed that he could not take away the little princess immediately.
He cast an apologetic look at Mu Zhao.
Mu Zhao waved his hands indifferently.
She watched Emperor Zhou leave and the ministers below retreating from the court, thinking about her next plan.
Emperor Zhou wouldn't let her go out, so she wouldn't have to go to school.
Moreover, the third brother had cleared away all the dirty work at home, so she could ask Yun Wuluo to help her disguise herself, and then she could go out swaggeringly.
Even when it came time to deliver food and grass to her father, she could still go with him.
Simply wonderful.
When Yun Wuluo came back from Qinzheng Palace, he saw Mu Zhao's smiling face. He relaxed a little and took Mu Zhao's waist out of the palace.
As soon as he left the palace, Yun Wuluo was trying to explain the matter of Mu Ruogu's seizure of power.
Mu Zhao spoke, "My third brother's power as Minister of Dali Temple was taken away, and you must take the credit for it."
Yun Wuluo panicked, "Princess, please listen to my explanation."
Seeing him like this, Mu Zhao deliberately said with a sullen face: "Let's talk about it."
"Emperor Zhou was not satisfied with the result that the third brother only had his leg broken. I was worried that he would kill the third brother again, so I persuaded him that instead of killing the third brother, it would be better to destroy him..."
He said and glanced at Mu Zhao again.
Mu Zhao thought he looked cuter than she had ever seen before.
She couldn't hold herself any longer and laughed. "I thought of coming together."
Yun Wuluo's eyes instantly lit up, "So, we have a clear understanding of each other?"
"No, a blind cat bumps into a dead mouse."
Yun Wuluo: "......"
He teased her, "Princess, how could you scold yourself like that?"
Mu Zhao: "......"
She angrily scolded him, "You are the dead rat."
Yun Wuluo smiled happily, "Okay, okay, that princess bumped into me."
Mu Zhao: "?"
So she became a blind cat again?
No matter how you calculate it, it's wrong.
Mu Zhao waved his hands irritably, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. What does the Dog Emperor want from you?"
"It is said that he wants to increase the spread of last night's incident among the people. He wants to see how Zhao Mingde solves the matter, so as to deduce how many things Zhao Mingde and the second prince are hiding from him."
Mu Zhao asked, "Aren't you still with the second prince? You didn't reveal his secrets to Emperor Zhou."
"About him, I have always told Emperor Zhou everything I know, but this second prince is more than just superficial. He seemed to have guessed that I was a craftsman, so he didn't trust me.
The status around me is that of a bodyguard that I occasionally take with me when I go out."
Mu Zhao nodded, "Let the two forces compete with each other, and I will go about my own business."
"What other plans does the princess have?"
Mu Zhao smiled mysteriously, "You will know when the time comes."
Yun Wuluo was tickled by her hooky smile, and the hand holding her waist tightened unconsciously.
But he still had things to do, so he sent Mu Zhao to Mu's mansion and left first.
About half an hour later, Mu Ziqian came to Mu Zhao's room and said distressedly: "Little sister, your Majesty knows what happened last night."
Mu Zhao tried his best to act frightened, "Then... did your Majesty punish me?"
Mu Ziqian nodded, "He said that you will not be able to leave the house for half a year, and you will also be fined ten thousand taels of gold."
It is impossible for Mu Ziqian not to know that Mu Zhao will go out frequently in the future, so he has to make a deal now.
Mu Zhao rolled his eyes, "Brother, tell me, can I secretly disguise myself and then sneak out?"
"This..." Mu Ziqian hesitated.
Mu Zhao shook his arm, "Brother, you know me well. If you don't let me go out for a month, let alone half a year, I will be suffocated."
Mu Ziqian couldn't stand Mu Zhao's coquettishness the most.
He turned his head and said, "Your fourth brother will change his appearance. I will call your fourth brother back."
Mu Zhao hurriedly waved his hand, "It's better to say goodbye. Your Majesty is so smart. If you call the fourth brother back, and there is always a stranger coming in and out of our house, he will definitely become suspicious. If I ask Yun Wuluo, he will also
Disguised."
Mu Ziqian nodded, "That's okay. Your third brother has also been punished. You come with me. I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it. If you are here, he will feel better."
Mu Zhao pretended not to know, "What is the punishment?"
"Your Majesty dismissed him from his position as Minister of Dali Temple and asked Tang Wenkang to take charge of it."
"Ah?" Mu Zhao was shocked.
"We all know how much your third brother likes to solve crimes, so he will definitely not be able to accept it."
"Yes, let's talk slowly." Mu Zhao added in his heart, fearing that the third brother's acting skills would not be able to keep up.
Fortunately, Mu Ruogu was quite reliable. First he was shocked, then sad, and finally he had no choice but to accept it. He had a good grasp of all these expressions.
Mu Ziqian asked Mu Zhao to persuade Mu Ruogu carefully, and said that he would go back to the Ministry of Rites to draw up the law.
He thought that he should draft the law as soon as possible and then take over his younger siblings as soon as possible.
The third brother might be happier if his younger siblings are with him.
After Mu Ziqian left, both Mu Ruogu and Mu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Ruogu asked, "What punishment did the emperor give you?"
"Banned and fined"
Mu Ruogu said half-jokingly: "Ten thousand taels?"
Mu Zhao nodded speechlessly.
"Ha~ this dog emperor," Mu Ruogu sneered, "What plans do you have next, and what do you need the third brother to cooperate with?"
"I don't need third brother's help for the time being. Apart from the case, third brother also has to think carefully about how to deal with Miss Pink Butterfly."
Mu Ruogu: "......"
Just have a headache. This chapter has been completed!
