Li Zheng looked at Young Master Liu with a tangled look on his face: "I am guilty, my crime is unforgivable, and I have no choice but to admit it!"
Is this guy still the Liu Mingzhi I know? Is he the extremely smooth Tongyuan Bo Liu Mingzhi, who has good things mixed with bad things and is eight miles away?
"Liu Aiqing, if you have something unspeakable and inconvenient to tell, I can give you a chance to redress your grievances in private. Are you sure you want to plead guilty?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the emperor blankly and was speechless. I have said it several times. I plead guilty. Are you deaf or something?
"Replying to your Majesty, I have nothing to hide and I don't want to redress my grievances. I did it by provoking my colleagues. I also did it by teasing women from good families in the street. I have admitted it all. Your Majesty, please deal with me in accordance with the laws of the dragon. I will have no complaints!"
Li Zheng's breathing was rapid, as if he had choked on something he was eating. He looked at Liu Mingzhi in disbelief and was speechless.
No matter how many steps I gave you, you still can't go down and you have to admit your guilt. What the hell, am I dreaming or are you crazy?
"I can convict you of the crime, but you have to give me a reason. You will never insult the faces of your beloved ones for no reason!"
"Xia Aiqing!"
"I'm here!"
"I ask you, how old is the woman who filed the complaint at Yushitai, and how does she look? Tell me the truth!"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the woman is about twenty years old. She has a pretty appearance and can be regarded as a beauty from Xiaojiabiyu! Especially her big, watery eyes, which are as vivid as if she can talk. Her figure is also excellent, with the front and back bulging.
If it's warped, if it increases by one point, it will be more, if it decreases by one point, it will be less. To be honest, I would be surprised at first glance, if not"
"Ahem, don't say anything unnecessary!"
Li Zheng looked helplessly at Xia Gongming, who was already over sixty years old. I told you to tell the truth, but I didn't tell you to go to this level!
"I obey the decree!"
Xia Gongming helplessly shrugged his slumped shoulders, "Your Majesty, please tell me the truth, okay?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Xia Gongming blankly, and couldn't help but wonder if the lady Xia Gongming was teasing with him was the same person?
If you want to say that I am beautiful, I will not refute it, but if you even uttered the sentences in the Luo Shen Fu, is it too exaggerated?
Since traveling to Dalong, the only woman who can make Liu Mingzhi feel as beautiful as the one depicted in Luo Shen Fu is Queen Wanyan Wanyan.
After Xia Gongming's words, Liu Mingzhi almost thought he was teasing the Queen!
"Liu Aiqing!"
"I'm here!"
"Xia Aiqing also said that the girl who complained was only of average appearance, but all of your ladies are of average appearance. Why did you casually go out on the street to find a green onion and find a girl to flirt with? You humiliated your colleagues for no reason.
, if you molest a woman from a good family when you have a good wife at home, you have to give me a reason! At least there must be a reasonable reason when you take the confession!"
"Replying to your Majesty, I told you that you have nothing to do!"
Forget it, let’s do whatever you want. Li Zheng completely understood what the sentence meant.
It seems wrong that rotten wood cannot be carved!
Mud can't hold up the wall? It doesn't seem right either!
You can't live if you do your own evil, yes, you can't live if you do your own evil!
Tell me how a person who is usually quite smart can be so confused when he should be smart!
After holding Long An for a while, the emperor took a breath and looked at the officials standing in the first two rows: "Ye Aiqing, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, and Cao Aiqing, Minister of Dali Temple!"
"I'm here!"
"Since Liu Aiqing has confessed her crime, you are in charge of the punishment and punishment according to the law!"
Ye Kaiming, the Minister of Punishment, and Cao Lei, the Chief Minister of Dali Temple, looked at each other and felt helpless.
There is really no way to punish Dalonglu for spitting on a colleague's door. Ordinary people can at most just give him a lesson and let him go. For a prince of a country, this is not a big deal at all!
These officials only participated in Young Master Liu's performance because the words Young Master Liu left behind were too irritating. As for the slaps they gave the servant, they did not use any force, and they did not slap the face but only slapped the head, which was nothing.
If I had to say something, the most I could say would be that Young Master Liu is of low quality.
However, the poor quality of Young Master Liu was something that everyone in the civil and military dynasties knew about.
Anyone with a higher quality will not instigate the emperor to compete with the people, okay?
"Come on, Master Cao!"
"Oh, that's wrong. Dali Temple is an auxiliary department of the Ministry of Punishment. It's better for you, Mr. Ye, to do it!"
After exchanging blame for a long time, they still couldn't make a decision. Finally, the two of them made eye contact and the colleague raised the wat in salute: "Your Majesty, Uncle Tong Yuan is not guilty at all. The worst he can do is let you vomit in front of his house."
alright!"
"Your Majesty, I am guilty. I also molested a decent woman!"
The emperor who was about to speak was shocked when he saw that the knuckles of Liu Mingzhi's fist turned white. He must be being mean!
"Convict!"
"Replying to Your Majesty, for molesting a good woman and damaging her reputation, the woman forced her to file a complaint. She will not let him go private. Once it is found out, he will be punished by castration!"
This time it was Liu Mingzhi's Spartan turn. He looked at Ye Kaiming and Cao Lei in horror as they felt the coldness in their crotches and hurriedly straightened up: "Two adults, please stop making trouble. Is this the punishment of castration?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at the narrow eyes of the civil and military officials in the court, and his forehead was sweating a little. Grandma, it seems that she has gone too far!
"However, Mr. Liu only verbally molested the woman and did not insult her innocence. Therefore, the woman's reputation has not been damaged. If she is punished, she should sit behind closed doors for one month and be fined for three months!"
"I accept the punishment, I accept the punishment, let alone three months, even if I am punished with a salary of three and a half months, I accept it!"
Liu Mingzhi's pounding heart finally calmed down. It would be too cruel to punish him by castration if he disagreed with her!
Li Zheng waved his hand helplessly: "That's right!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your sin!"
All civil and military officials in the court were speechless as they looked at the ecstatic Young Master Liu. Who is this?
There is no such thing as a mean person!
"My dear friends, do you want to say anything else?"
More than a dozen ministers looked at Liu Mingzhi helplessly and shook their heads: "I will consider myself unlucky!"
"Farewell, my lords, I have deeply realized my mistake. Although the Dragon Law does not punish me, I am willing to punish myself. After the next court, I will prepare a small gift and come to apologize to express my sincerity.
apology!"
More than a dozen people only thought Liu Mingzhi was being polite, and after receiving the emperor's permission, they all returned to their original positions and knelt down!
Upon seeing this, Liu Mingzhi returned to his seat and sat down with satisfaction.
"You bastard, what do you want to do?"
"Father-in-law, don't worry, it'll be fine!"
"Six ministers, nine ministers, three offices and two eunuchs, six guards and nine divisions, three armies and five households. All the ministers will review the memorials and submit them to the imperial study room."
"I obey the order!"
Li Zheng stood up with a smile and looked at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty: "My dear friends, you have worked hard for the country and the people. I wish you all a happy Spring Festival in advance!"
"We rejoice with Your Majesty!"
"Retreat!"
"Congratulations to my emperor, long live long live long live!"
Outside the palace, Liu Mingzhi nodded to many officials, and some officials shook their heads and left with sighs!
"Who are you? You were not like this when you asked me for beef jerky! After eating and drinking, you turned your back on me and refused to acknowledge anyone else. I will pay no attention to you!"
"Liu Song, go home!"
"Yes, drive!"
"Prepare seventeen or eighty gifts when you get home! The young master must apologize to these colleagues!"
"Yes, what are they packed with?"
"Two pearls, a pair of jade, and a thousand taels of silver notes!"
"Ah, young master, accepting a thousand taels in bribes will lead to imprisonment. The pearls and jade can be converted into three thousand taels, which is enough to throw away the black gauze hat. Are you sure you want to give these?"
Liu Mingzhi squinted his eyes and smiled lightly: "This is an apology. If I don't pay bribes, how can they accept bribes?"
"Yes, Xiaosong knows."
Liu Mingzhi opened the curtains and muttered as he looked at the endless flow of officials.
"Who will you offend next? If you offend the civilian officials, then it's the military attachés. Anyway, my uncle said that as long as you don't rebel and break the sky, you'll be fine!"
Liu Mingzhi quietly lowered the curtains and fell asleep.
Since the emperor wanted to make him a lonely minister, he had to find a way to deal with it.
