Is this considered a beating?
That’s too obscure!
Shouldn't the correct approach be to dump the criminal evidence in front of the British public, and then mercifully say that he will not commit the crime again after this exposure?
However, looking at his father's angry face, he swallowed these words back.
The fifth prince remained silent, but Sheng Hong's anger was still rising rapidly: "If it were any other official, he would definitely keep a low profile with his tail between his legs, but his British father-in-law is domineering and arrogant, and he did not take my beatings seriously. This Can you blame me?"
At the end of the sentence, Sheng Hong's face was full of disbelief.
absurd!
"Also, in the entire British government, only Lu Wenrong's father became a fourth-grade young minister of Guanglu Temple. Have you never thought about why this is?!"
"If it were anyone else, how would they dare to do all kinds of illegal things? Look at how Wu'an Hou has behaved in these years, and then look at his British government!"
"It's you who always have a sense of luck, thinking that I don't care, that I will indulge without a bottom line, but have you ever thought that the merits of the British father back then are enough for me to ignore those crimes?"
"What's wrong? His British father-in-law saved your grandpa's life, so our Sheng family must recognize his British father-in-law as our ancestor?"
"Sheng Changang, tell me, do our Sheng family have to recognize his British father as our ancestor?!"
Fifth Prince: "..."
He opened his mouth again, but this time he didn't know how to refute. The British father was indeed not worthy of being the ancestor of his Sheng family.
"Also, you are my son, not my ancestor! When I deal with a criminal who has hundreds of innocent lives on his hands, do I still have to consult with you?"
"The British government is like a moth eating away at Da Sheng. As a prince, you don't feel sorry for the innocent people or worry about Da Sheng today. Now you come to question me? Are you going to give him a guarantee that he will change?"
"If he really has a heart to repent, then after I ordered him not to have another dispute with Li Qiao, why did he open a shop and openly compete with Li Qiao for business?"
"He disobeyed my orders and openly slapped me in the face. Don't you feel sorry for me, an old father, and you came here to vouch for him?"
"I allowed you to be born into the royal family, and you have been superior to others since you were a child. I still owe you, right?"
"roll!"
The anger that had been forcibly suppressed since noon yesterday surged into Sheng Hong's head again.
His arms shook slightly in anger, and the tea cup in his hand couldn't help but make a slight knocking sound because of his slight trembling.
Hearing this voice, he became even more irritated and threw the tea cup away.
The teacup just landed in front of the fifth prince, and the slightly hot tea inside suddenly spilled onto the fifth prince's feet.
The tea quickly seeped into the thin boots, feeling the uncomfortable wetness. The fifth prince gritted his teeth, not daring to refute another word.
He resigned in despair.
But the complaint in his heart did not diminish much.
Yes, it is in line with the laws of Dasheng to deal with a British prince who has committed many crimes, but where does this put him, the fifth prince?
This is tantamount to directly depriving him of the qualification to compete for the throne!
When he and his good third brother were fighting over each other, suddenly cutting off one of his arms was equivalent to directly declaring that his good third brother had won?
He had clearly admitted his mistake before and had taken a step back, but his father gave up on him.
Doesn't this push him to a dead end?
With this thought in mind, he turned his steps and walked towards the harem.
He now urgently needs his mother-in-law to analyze the situation for him. His grandfather's words are really frightening.
This day is destined to be a lively day.
Of course, this excitement is for the people of Shengjing.
The British government, which had been prosperous for decades, collapsed like this. This is of course a huge excitement!
After getting the news, many people rushed to the gate of the British Government House to watch the excitement. Anyway, the Lu family will be civilians from now on, and they are not afraid at this time.
The plaque of the British Duke on the gate of the British Palace was removed by the imperial army, and the gambling house was sealed. The Holy Lord was kind and merciful, and he only did this to the British Palace in Shengjing.
But for everyone in the British government who had not received any news in advance, it was the end of the world.
Relegated to common people?
common people?
How could the people in the British government, who were accustomed to showing off their power and spending extravagantly, tolerate this result.
Therefore, when Zhao Cun, the captain of the Guards, read out the imperial edict and ordered people to remove the plaque on the door, the female relatives of the British government were either stunned in disbelief, or cried in disbelief, or they rushed up to question Zhao Cun .
The one who dared to rush up to question Zhao Cun was naturally the British princess.
She was leaning on crutches and looking fierce, thinking that Zhao Cun was pretending to pass on the imperial edict.
She didn't get any information beforehand, that's impossible!
With her family's status, how could there not be any news beforehand? There was Concubine Dong in the harem, and there were five princes in the previous dynasty. If the Holy Emperor wanted to deal with people in their house, why didn't she know about it until now?
Zhao Cun is probably falsely passing on the imperial edict, which is contrary to heaven!
The old lady wanted to devour Zhao Cun in one gulp, but Zhao Cun was not used to her. Before yesterday, Zhao Cun would have been very respectful, but at this time, she was just an old lady.
He summoned two people to pull the old lady away, and Zhao Cun walked to the door.
This Duke's Mansion was built according to the Duke's title. It stands to reason that those places that exceed the regulations at this time should be thrown away and smashed.
But His Majesty only allowed the plaque on the British Palace to be removed. Alas, I have never seen a more magnanimous emperor than His Majesty.
Zhao Cun didn't take the old lady seriously, but the old lady was angered by Zhao Cun's contemptuous attitude. Just when she was about to make a scene, the British father returned home.
Last night, the British government dormitory was at his Jie Yuhua's place, not at the British government residence. Now that such a big thing happened, Zhao Cun sent someone to notify him in advance, so he returned to his residence.
When he saw a few Forbidden Army soldiers picking off the plaque that symbolized his identity, his vision went dark and he almost fainted.
What follows is naturally a whirlwind of excitement.
The British prince wanted to enter the palace to meet the saint, but Zhao Cun ordered someone to stop him.
The old lady jumped and yelled, but Zhao Cun still sent someone to stop her.
The rest of the people were either crying or dumbfounded.
In the midst of the fuss, Lu Wenrong came back.
Lu Wenrong was not in the mansion last night either. He stayed with his new oiran.
Lu Wenrong was not a British couple, so he did not dare to make trouble against the imperial guards. He was already stupid now and could not believe that this was true.
But soon, his father came back.
His father was the only person with an official position in the entire British government. In the court just now, his father heard the imperial edict read by Qian San with his own ears, and it took a lot of effort not to collapse to the ground.
His father originally wanted to see the fifth prince after the court, but the fifth prince fled quickly and rushed directly to the back hall of Tai Chi Hall.
But he was dismissed from his official position, and the imperial army expelled him from the palace.
He didn't even know how he got back all the way!
When the British father-in-law saw his son, he believed Zhao Cun's edict just now, and the emperor really took away his family's title.
The British government is over.
They both fainted.
Li Qiao was reading in the Hanlin Academy until four o'clock, then packed up and left work.
Before leaving the Hanlin Academy, Xin Zhi trotted after him and invited him to go to Lu's house to watch the fun together.
"At this point, the trouble must be over. The Lu family's door is probably closed now. What's there to see?"
Li Qiao shook his head.
"Besides, I have always been generous. Now that the Lu family has become common people, if I go, I will be bullying the people."
"If I don't go, you don't go either."
"……Too."
Xin Zhi thought about it carefully and agreed with this.
That's the truth.
Forget it, he doesn't care about Lu Wenrong's ridicule to him over the years. He doesn't remember the faults of villains.
However, he must watch the liveliness of the Lu family: "I want to find out and see how everyone in the Lu family reacts today. Hehe, it must be interesting."
"Inquiry."
Li Qiao is very supportive of this.
Because he wants to hear it too.
Arriving at the gate of the inner city, he walked a few steps and saw his family's new carriage.
The driver was Li Dashan, and Li Dao and four others stood aside.
He and Xin knew their goodbyes, and then quickened their pace. Brother Zhu must have come to pick him up.
If it was just Li Dashan himself, he usually only brought one nurse, but now he brought four out, it must be Brother Zhu.
Sure enough, more than ten meters away from the carriage, the carriage door opened from the inside.
But when he saw clearly who was sitting inside, he was a little surprised.
Not only Tao Zhu was there, but Li Xia and Zheng Qianqian were also there, and the three of them were holding a little baby on their legs.
"Why are you here?" He asked with a smile as he got on the carriage and took Li Yunfan's little fat friend from Tao Zhu's arms.
"They all missed you, so we just came here with them in our arms."
Tao Zhu explained.
Li Xiaorui was three years old. Li Qiao made a lot of picture books for him to learn how to read. Li Dashan and Zheng Qianqian had high expectations for him, so they asked him to use the picture books to read and write every day.
But today he wanted to ride a scooter, eat cake, and not know how to read. When Zheng Qianqian carried him and forced him to sit down at the small desk, he shouted that he missed his uncle.
He shouted in a loud voice, which aroused the two little boys' longing for their father, and the two little boys kept calling them daddy.
They shouted from morning to afternoon, so Tao Zhu brought the three of them over.
