After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

I originally wanted to steal some more things from my father, but didn’t I accidentally break his things just now?

Chu Daidai, who felt guilty, began to exaggerate how difficult it was to make the shroud, and his various good wishes for his father, etc.

This successfully lured another unlucky guy into the palace.

Chu Zongyuan, who had not been in public for a long time, was actually confused when he first took the blame from his little cousin.

Fortunately, his innate survival instinct allowed him to react quickly. He knelt down beside his cousin, and the two brothers kowtowed in unison with the same intensity.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent!

Even if you give me eight hundred courages, I would not dare to let her curse His Majesty!

It’s really not my fault!”

The last sentence is so damn loud that one can tell just by listening to it that every word is filled with injustice.

But is the emperor willing to listen?

He just wanted to find a vent. Does he need to listen to these little bastards arguing and crying about their grievances?

The angry emperor couldn't explain the reason to his confused daughter, so he could only glare at Chu Zhankui fiercely.

"How do you teach your children?"

Minister Chu responded calmly.

"Your Majesty is right. As the old saying goes, if a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. I am really ashamed that I did not teach my son well."

"........."

The emperor, who was speechless after being criticized by others, began to vent his anger unreasonably.

"Don't you know that the princess is innocent? Don't you know what to say and what not to say? I think it's necessary to teach your son a lesson, too. What do you think, Old Chu?"

How can I vent my anger by beating my own son? Of course I have to beat your son too! He is a fool who gives advice for no reason. He deserves to be beaten!

"Your Majesty, I am truly wronged. I did not teach her to say that! Cousin, Princess Rongchang, please say something!"

This shows that Chu Xiaosan lacks experience.

Just look at Minister Chu and Lin Youan kneeling on the other side. They look submissive and obviously used to it, and you will know that the emperor is the kind of person who will blame others even if he has nothing to do with it.

Chu Daidai, who was named, glanced at Lin Youan furtively. She shrank in place obediently and did not move under the other party's eyes. But she opened her mouth and made a clear response.

"Squeak~~"

Well, it can be seen that this guy still has some loyalty to Chu Xiaosan, although not much.

This kind of support that added fuel to the fire made the two unlucky guys' heads buzz, and they looked up at the emperor with trembling eyes.

Sure enough, the old man laughed again.

Poor Chu Xiaosan and Pei Xiaoliu almost received twenty lashes of the cane at the hands of their younger sister, who had smeared poison on her mouth.

As for why it didn’t hit me?

It’s not that the emperor suddenly found his conscience, but that at the critical moment, Old Chu bravely stood up.

"Your Majesty, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."

Minister Chu looked at the unfortunate children in the room, all of whom were scooped out of his own pot. He felt that life was really fucking difficult.

The brain is spinning like crazy, and the mouth is speaking steadily.

"The Longevity Festival is approaching, and envoys from various countries have arrived one after another. Your Majesty is well aware of the various procedures that will follow. In the past, those people always found some excuse to come out and watch the fun. Your Majesty, have you forgotten?

Therefore, I, your Majesty, implore you to reconsider, but do you really have to punish His Royal Highness Prince Yu Xuan with a cane at this moment?

I seem to have heard that this year, Prince Ming will still bring people to Dasheng. Will he laugh at me in person for being as unrefined as the people of the Yuan Dynasty?

Your Majesty is ready to be…"

"okay!"

The emperor snorted coldly. Rather than venting his anger now, he was obviously more concerned about the possibility of losing face in front of other countries in the future.

"Who are the people at Sifang Pavilion?"

"I haven't had time to go over and take a look, but Dasheng must not have arrived yet, otherwise the people from the Honglu Temple would have entered the palace long ago."

As soon as Lao Chu finished speaking, he heard the minister of the Honglu Temple asking for a meeting from outside.

The emperor also understood that he came here to report something, so he raised his hand and waved at these troublesome things below, pretending to ignore it.

"You all should go back first. We will discuss everything in detail after the envoys from various countries leave."

"Yes, I am resigning!"

"Wei Chen resigns!"

Chu Xiaosan and Pei Xiaoliu, who had luckily escaped the disaster, kowtowed and took their leave, then each grabbed Chu Chi and Lin Youan's arm and left the edge of danger as quickly as possible.

The Honglu Temple Minister was surnamed Guo, a handsome and elegant old man. But think about it, after all, he is the face of the person who represents the Great Qi in dealing with other countries. Given that the emperor and his daughter are both obsessed with looks, it is impossible not to choose a good-looking person to take on this important responsibility.

Mr. Guo met this group of people outside, and both sides greeted each other very politely. Even the little ancestor who was usually the most troublesome smiled at him today, which made the old man shudder.

He quickly pondered over it carefully in his mind for a while, wondering if he might have offended Princess Rongchang recently?

It's not that Lord Guo is timid, but the deformed feet of the previous Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple are still lying there, covered in blood, and he really can't help but be cautious!

However, the young eunuch at the door did not give him any extra time to think about it.

"Announce, the Minister of the Honglu Temple is here to see you!"

Lord Guo quickly straightened his clothes, then stepped into the hall to report on a series of miscellaneous matters regarding how the envoys from various countries were settled.

Minister Chu was left behind to listen. After Lord Guo finished explaining all his arrangements, he frowned slightly in disapproval.

The emperor carefully rolled up the birthday gift made by his leaky little cotton jacket and put it into the box beside him. When he looked up, he asked casually.

"Regarding Lord Guo's arrangement, does Lord Chu have any objection?"

"It's not objection, it's opposition from this old minister."

Minister Chu's reply was very straightforward, but it made it difficult for Lord Guo to do anything.

Ok?

What does Old Chu want to do?

I have never offended him over the years. Is he trying to cause trouble for no reason?

There was no need for him to question, as Mr. Chu directly stated his opinions and reasons.

"Your Majesty, if we follow the old precedent of the last Wanshou Festival, there is nothing wrong with what Lord Guo has arranged. But Lord Guo, have you forgotten something?"

Seeing Minister Chu's serious expression, Lord Guo began to doubt whether he had really made any mistakes, so he bowed and asked uncertainly.
