King Guangping was stunned and forgot to speak. He stared at Ji Jinyu for a long time before he found his voice.

"You said you liked the gentleman from Yunlin Academy!"

Ji Jinyu responded frankly: "So what?"

"Brother Huang, here." King Guangping looked at Emperor Hui with surprise on his face.

Is the capital already so open, and the dignified prince behaves like this, doesn't it matter?

Emperor Hui tried his best to ignore King Guangping's gaze, and coughed lightly, reminding Ji Jinyu to restrain himself.

Ji Jinyu hummed twice before speaking again.

"Now is not the time to talk about this, Sixth Brother, you just say, is there such a thing?"

The corner of King Guangping's mouth twitched, he never expected Emperor Hui to react like this.

"Chen brother, I didn't expect why such a thing happened." King Guangping let out a foul breath, and knelt down with his hands together, "It's my brother who didn't discipline his subordinates properly, please punish him."

Emperor Hui narrowed his eyes, and the imperial majesty burst out: "In this way, it is true."

King Guangping bowed his head, his heart sank.

"How did the sixth brother punish your subordinate?

King Guangping's back felt a chill, and his forehead was pressed against the cold floor tiles, "My brother has beaten him twenty boards, expelled him from the palace, and he will not be allowed to return to Beijing in the future."

The atmosphere in the hall became quiet, and Emperor Hui said: "Tell me, how can your subordinate not think about offending King Ning."

When Xiao Yunheng was mentioned, Emperor Hui couldn't help feeling strange.

This couple has never been a worry-free person. It's really strange that they didn't make a fuss about this matter today.

King Guangping turned his head and instantly thought of a reason.

"My younger brother has inquired about it. He owed a lot of gambling debts outside and had no money to repay the debts. As a last resort, he came up with this risky method."

There is no way, no matter whether Emperor Hui believes it or not, he must not rest on his own head in today's matter, he can only wrong his subordinates.

At that time, reward him with some money and let him leave the capital forever, that's all.

"That's it." Emperor Hui cast a deep glance at him, expressing his doubts: "Prince Ning and his wife didn't look for you."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Jinyu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, and King Guangping all looked up at the emperor sitting on the high seat.

For some reason, His Majesty's words sounded like he wanted to hear gossip.

Emperor Hui looked composed.

King Guangping knew he couldn't hide it, and nodded in resignation: "I found it."

Several people looked at Emperor Hui and raised his brows, and asked with some interest: "How do you say that?"

King Guangping closed his eyes. He has never felt as embarrassed as he is now for a moment in his life. However, His Majesty asked about this matter, and he can't just talk nonsense.

"Brother Huang, Ning Wang and his wife came to the mansion to find their younger brother, asked for 5000 taels of silver and left."

5000 two!

The Minister of the Ministry of Justice quickly created a scene of 5000 taels of silver in his mind, so how many big boxes should be packed.

Ji Jinyu blinked, amused.

The couple really did not disappoint him.

5000 taels of silver is not too much for a prince like him, but not too little for the Guangping Palace.

How much oil and water can be left for the fiefdom to be distributed in such a place where birds don't shit.

Huidi paused, thinking for a moment that he had listened: "They asked you for the money?"

King Guangping nodded.

Emperor Hui's lips moved twice, and for the first time he felt at a loss as to what to say.

I heard that the woman who was looking for trouble was there to extort people's money. This move by Ning Wang and his wife is out of revenge.

A bright smile appeared in his mind.

Well, it must be Princess Ning's idea. Although Xiao Yunheng is not a good person, he definitely can't think of such a disgusting idea.

After cross-examination for a few more sentences, Emperor Hui thought about Ji Jinyu's temperament of not giving up until he achieved his goal, so he confiscated King Guangping's salary for half a year before sending him away.

After the matter was understood, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice also left.

The two came and walked together, but when King Guangping left the imperial study, his footsteps were obviously a little vain.

Presumably, 5000 taels were extorted from the front foot, and half a year's salary was fined on the back foot, so I couldn't hold on.

"Okay, now you should be satisfied." Emperor Hui glared at his embarrassing son angrily.

Ji Jinyu's brows were curved, and the word "satisfaction" was almost written on his face, "Satisfaction, son, thank you father, it's nothing, my son will leave first."

With that said, he turned around and was about to slip away.

"Stop for me." Emperor Hui called to stop him, "You must attend the flower viewing banquet five days later, do you hear me?"

"Father—"

Emperor Hui's face was cold.

Ji Jinyu knew that he couldn't escape, so he had no choice but to respond: "I know, I will go."

"Okay, then you go, hurry up."

Huidi waved his hand impatiently.

Ji Jinyu left happily.

After leaving the study, he said goodbye to Zhou Wei who was waiting outside, and sold the lacquered red door with one kick, his eyes suddenly changed a little.

It is hot in July, and you can still hear the chirping of cicadas when you walk under the red wall.

Soon after he left the palace, Emperor Hui summoned Xiao Yunheng and Lu Xiyue.

The two entered the palace in pairs.

When Emperor Hui saw someone, the first thing he said was: "I heard that you husband and wife have extorted 5000 taels of silver from your uncle Wang."

"Yes."

"Princess Ning, is it your idea?"

Lu Xiyue admitted honestly: "Yes."

Emperor Hui's eyes were deep, and he couldn't see any joy or anger.

Lu Xiyue lowered her head, quietly waiting for the person in front to speak.

Emperor Hui glanced at Xiao Yunheng, then at Lu Xiyue, and smiled after a long time: "It's done, get up, married people, it's still so worrying."

Only then did Xiao Yunheng help Lu Xiyue get up.

Emperor Hui took his rare interest into his eyes, but felt that he hadn't seen it. He was thinking about his own son, but he couldn't say anything to reprimand him, so he turned from depression to curiosity: "Why didn't you report this matter to the police?" I?"

Lu Xiyue replied: "Your Majesty, there is not enough evidence for this matter, and I was afraid of alarming Your Majesty and disturbing your leisure, so I made this bad plan."

"Tsk, this is a bad idea, 5000 taels of silver is not a small sum."

"It was the people from the Guangping Palace who acted first, and the minister's wife just returned it."

Anyway, Emperor Hui's appearance doesn't look like he's asking the teacher for a crime, so why don't she admit it openly, it's all the truth anyway.

"You husband and wife have the same virtue." Emperor Hui blamed him, but he was slightly happy in his heart.

For nothing else, it is good to be able to teach King Quang Binh a lesson.

……

After leaving the imperial study room, it was already dark.

"Your Majesty called us into the palace just to check the details?" Lu Xiyue frowned, puzzled.

They were all in the palace before the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, so they didn't know clearly.

Xiao Yunheng put his hands on her shoulders as if no one was around, and said affectionately: "Maybe I want to know more about it."

He lowered his eyes and dropped a look.

Lu Xiyue understood, looked around at the palace servants, and didn't ask any more questions.

The palace people looked at each other, seeing Xiao Yunheng next to Lu Xiyue, holding her with one hand and holding her with the other, sticky and reluctant to part, it was really embarrassing.
