After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

Some time ago, Fu Yutang, the unfilial son, disappeared. In order to avoid being laughed at by the civil and military officials in the court, Fu Ping'an decisively chose not to attend the court and stayed at home to "recuperate". He devoted himself to reading books of sages and turned a deaf ear to the outside world, for fear of hearing the news of his unfilial son's death.

After all, no matter how hard he tried over the years, he only had this one son.

Once this only child dies, the Fu family’s line of succession will be completely cut off!

As fragile as he is and as old as his parents are, they can't withstand any blow!

So, he chose to escape without thinking, neither taking the initiative to go out to inquire about the news, nor letting the servants in the mansion talk about the unfilial son.

Therefore, it had been almost half a month since Fu Yutang returned to Kyoto, but Fu Ping'an had no idea about it.

Yesterday, someone from the palace came to summon him into the palace. At that time, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that the unfilial son Fu Yutang had died, and the emperor asked him to enter the palace to identify the body.

Along the way, my mind was filled with the miserable death of the unfilial son.

It was only by constantly building up my mental strength and gritting my teeth that I didn't faint on the spot.

After entering the palace and meeting the emperor, Fu Ping'an realized that the unfilial son was not dead!

Not only did he not die, he also deposed the Prince of Xiang and became the acting prime minister!

Hearing this, Fu Ping'an was surprised and delighted. He immediately slapped his thigh and exclaimed: "As expected, a tiger father will have a dog son!"

As expected of his son, he behaves in a similar way to him.

The next second, he met Feng Xingjun's slightly speechless eyes, as if saying "Marquis Annan, stop flattering yourself."

Eunuch Fulu, who was standing by, corrected him with a smile: "My Lord, you are wrong. We think the proverb 'Good bamboo shoots come from bad bamboo' is more appropriate here."

Fu Pingan: "..."

Fine.

Anyway, no matter what, Fu Yutang is his son and he is Fu Yutang's father, and this can never be changed.

only……

"I wonder what instructions the Emperor has for you in summoning me to an audience?"

Could it be that the unfilial son had made great contributions, and the emperor wanted to reward him as a father?

Speaking of which, the unfilial son is now the prime minister, the highest position among officials, and it seems that there is nothing to reward him with.

But he is different. He has only held a sinecure position in the Ministry of Rites until now.

It was still the kind of useless position that was dispensable and did not require his involvement in major matters or minor matters, and that the censors might jointly petition for its cancellation one day.

Fu Ping'an was full of expectations, but he didn't expect that the emperor didn't reward him with anything. Instead, he said a lot of specious words about the unfilial son, asking him to pay more attention to the unfilial son, saying that sometimes being too obsessed is not a good thing, and that the unfilial son is not young anymore, so he should pay attention to the unfilial son's daily words and deeds and not let the unfilial son go astray, etc.

"Boom! Click!"

Fu Ping'an, who was completely confused by what he heard, felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck his head. After a moment, a flash of inspiration came to him, and he finally understood -

So the emperor didn't want to reward him, but wanted to tell him that he was very dissatisfied with his unfilial son and asked him, as a father, to discipline him more? !

The dream of getting promoted and getting rich was shattered in an instant. Fu Ping'an felt a pain in his heart and secretly cursed his unfilial son for being as unfilial as ever. It would have been fine if he had not brought him glory, but he also caused him to be summoned to the palace to be scolded!

He didn't want to listen any more, so he immediately said that he understood what the emperor meant, and patted his chest to assure him: "I understand, Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will restrain him and prevent him from making further mistakes."
