Young Master Liu was dumbfounded as he stared at Du Yu, who was holding up his finger with a matter-of-fact expression. He thought to himself, "I'm a flying grass."
Young Master Liu can't think of any words to describe Du Yu's actions except "awesome". His frame-up was so blatant that it is rare in the world!
If the charge of reselling the country is confirmed, not to mention Li Yunlong, the king of Shu, even the current prince Li Baiyu will have to drink two cups.
Young Master Liu came back to his senses and looked at Du Yu in amazement while taking in the cold air. He secretly thought that it was a good thing that this guy was not a local official.
Otherwise, it is estimated that all the cases Du Yu handles will probably be false or unjust.
The already pale and beardless middle-aged man's face turned even paler, but it was just the pale kind.
The middle-aged man pointed at Du Yu with trembling arms: "Young general, don't slander others. There is no point in trying to incriminate others. We would rather die than get a copy from the Qinzheng Palace!"
Du Yu glanced lightly at the middle-aged man and pulled out half of the horizontal sword in his hand, turned around and looked at Young Master Liu respectfully: "Sir, as a general, you shed your blood on the battlefield and bury your bones in a foreign land just to fight for every inch of territory.
Lost, how many big dragons have watered the land with boiling blood, they actually transported it out of the customs at will. Considering their humble position, they don’t need to go to trial, and they can just execute the law on the spot. After all, reselling the land is a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan!"
"uh-huh!"
Young Master Liu coughed: "Du Yu, please step back first!"
"Got the order!"
Although Liu Mingzhi really wanted to kill Li Yunlong, the guy who once dared to send someone to assassinate him, he couldn't act too blatantly.
After all, Li Yunlong is a descendant of the Li family and a local vassal king. If you want to bring him down, you can't just be so unreasonable. You must find his vital points and give him a fatal blow.
Liu Mingzhi didn't want to steal the chicken but lose the rice.
"This father-in-law?"
"What do you want to do to us? Let me tell you, beating a dog depends on the owner. You are going to frame the prince indiscriminately. How can His Majesty really find the prince guilty because of your unprovoked frame-up."
The middle-aged man, who was not pointing a crossbow, spoke forcefully again. There were still seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door, not to mention the eunuchs around the vassal king, who were all carefully selected from the palace.
It is human nature to be afraid of death, but it is impossible not to have a little momentum.
"I don't want to do anything. My father-in-law, this subordinate of mine has been kicked in the head by a donkey. He talks some nonsense. Don't take it to heart. I will take this one hundred taels of silver note to drink tea and treat it as my father-in-law."
I apologize to my subordinates!"
There were so many goods in a mess all over the place. Mr. Liu didn't feel bad even though he had to pay a hundred taels of silver notes. The days ahead would be long, so just take your time.
But Liu Mingzhi won’t be like this next time. It’s no problem if he does it once, but he really can’t account for it if he does it every time.
"My lord?"
The middle-aged man was stunned by Liu Mingzhi's self-proclaimed title. Looking at the appearance and age of Young Master Liu, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly widened: "Dingguo Gong Liu Mingzhi?"
Apart from Liu Mingzhi, the middle-aged man can't think of anyone else who dares to call himself my father at this age. There is no way that Liu Dashao's name as a young talent is really like thunder in the eyes of some people in Dalong.
"It is me. This father-in-law just escaped the thieves at the city gate. I am holding back my anger for a moment, and my words are inevitably a little harsh. Don't be as knowledgeable as him!"
"The King of Shu is the third brother of my father-in-law who got married. Naturally, he is also my third brother. He doesn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. Let's forget about this matter. I will let the Japanese father personally come to the third brother's house to apologize!"
"how?"
The middle-aged man looked at Young Master Liu, who spoke neither humble nor overbearingly. His expression was tangled for a moment, but he finally nodded helplessly: "We dare not not give face to the Prince Consort, but your subordinates should treat him well."
If you discipline me, if you act so rudely and rudely, I will definitely cause you a lot of trouble in the future, my consort!"
Liu Mingzhi looked back at Du Yu, who was twirling his fingers nonchalantly, and looked at the middle-aged man with a chuckle.
"This father-in-law doesn't know something. This general is the son of Du Chenghao, the Minister of Civil Affairs. Even I, the palace, have to be careful and do not dare to yell at him!"
"If the father-in-law is still angry, you can tell the third brother about this when he returns to his house, and let him participate in the previous memorial. Du Chenghao, this old shameless thing, has no way of teaching his son!"
"As the saying goes, it is the son's fault that he does not teach his father. General Du's reckless behavior is the result of Du Chenghao, an old man who has no way of teaching his son. I have long wanted to participate in this old man's performance, but I can't find the opportunity!"
"Now this is a God-given opportunity for Third Brother. He must play a good role in the performance of Old Man Du and let him know that bullying someone with power and being disrespectful is not that easy to deal with!"
The middle-aged man looked at Young Master Liu with a trembling look on his face. He asked his prince to play the role of Du Chenghao, the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, who had no idea how to teach his son. Isn't this obviously offending him?
My family knows their own affairs. How can a middle-aged man not understand how much his prince wants to win over the important officials in the court? Du Chenghao, the Minister of Personnel, is in charge of the promotion and dismissal of officials all over the world. Naturally, he is one of them.
The middle-aged man covered his burning cheeks and sighed silently, thinking that these slaps were in vain.
Although he is not afraid of the King of Shu or Du Chenghao, even the King of Shu has to accompany these important officials during necessary periods.
Compared with the vassal king, the emperor's close ministers are more powerful beings, and the prince who cannot become the prince is the one with the most embarrassing status.
The various reactions and psychology of middle-aged people all illustrate one thing: if you have the background, you can really do whatever you want.
"Prince-in-law, General Du, if we don't have anything else to do, we'll just pack up and leave the city. Since it's a misunderstanding, we don't want to say anything more, so we're leaving!"
"Slow down and don't give me away, business is booming!"
"Thank you, farewell!"
Young Master Liu looked at the back of the middle-aged man boarding the car and looked towards Du Yu: "Du Yu, you are so stupid and follow me back home. If I don't beat you to death after I get back, you dare to attack my third brother.
The caravan takes action, do you still have any sense of justice in your eyes? Go back with me!"
"Yes, I know my mistake because of my humble position, and I accept the punishment!"
When the middle-aged man heard Mr. Liu's words of reprimanding Du Yu, there was finally a look of relief on his brows.
Regardless of whether it was a real beating or a fake beating, at least Dingguo Gong wanted to give himself a piece of thin noodles. Even his own prince seemed to have never received Dingguogong's thin noodles.
"Haha, Sir, that eunuch's expression is so funny. If you hadn't been holding it, Sir, he would have laughed and slapped him because of his low position!"
"Okay, okay, stop laughing. If you look at the eyes of the people around you, they might think you've lost your mind and gone crazy!"
"Sir, there is something I don't understand about my humble position!"
Liu Mingzhi glanced at Du Yu lightly: "I don't understand why I want to target the King of Shu's caravan?"
"Yes, you should not do this due to emotion or reason. The King of Shu is your third uncle and your Majesty's biological son. There is absolutely no need to be at odds with him. I really can't understand this!"
"If you hadn't warned me again and again, my lord, I would have thought that I was wrong!"
"Alas, this matter starts from a day when there was wind and snow, lightning and thunder, and there was a thunderbolt in the clear sky! This young master was born!"
Du Yu looked at Young Master Liu blankly: "What then?"
Young Master Liu lightly shrugged: "There will be no more after that. The important thing is that I was born!"
"My lord, aren't you talking nonsense?"
"That's right, it's not just nonsense, it's simply nonsense!"
