The Blessed

Chapter 490



"Are you kidding me? Only you can send me women, while my wife can'™t send you back? Who made such regulations? My wife sent you women as a reward is to give you face. Finally, I like my wife being jealous because of me. Even if he is a farmer, so what? Even I don'™t mind, why you care so much? You can abolish his title, as long as you all repudiate your first wives, including you, my imperial elder brother!'

Suddenly turning back, with his slender and long finger pointing at Yan Shengshi sitting up there. At this moment, Yan Shengrui'™s clean-cut tough face was rendered with undisguised unreasonableness, 'œIf you all can do it, I will agree to abolish his title.'

ƥαṇdαs ηθνε| In other words, as long as one of them couldn'™t do it, they shouldn'™t ask him to do this and that. Trying to force him to repudiate his wife? Not even next life!

All officials, except Yan Shengrui, no one dare say such words. All people, including Yan Shengzhi, couldn'™t help shuddering. They had never expected that Yan Shengrui would care about his crown princess so much. For him, he could even go against the whole court, including His Majesty! So, trying to remove his wife'™s title would be impossible now. His tough attitude had already secured Ling Jingxuan'™s first wife'™s title.

No one noticed that a smile flashed across the eyes of four people. The first one should be Chu Yunhan of course. The second one, Yan Xiaoming apparently. The third one Duke Zeng, and the last one was Duke Yuan. As early as when receiving the letter from Yan Shengrui and knowing that his eldest son was in his wife'™s place, he had sent people to investigate it. Except his farm background, Ling Jingxuan was good enough for Highness Sheng in every aspect, no one was more appropriate than him to be Crown Princess Sheng.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

As Yan Shengrui couldn'™t hold his anger and unable to get out of the embarrassing situation, Duke Zeng who was in his late fifties but still in fine fig stood out. And Yan Shengzhi'™s anger immediately decreased over a half. Like noticing his discomposure, after trying to press down his annoyance, Yan Shengzhi sat back in the dragon chair and then looked down at Duke Zeng, 'œPlease go ahead, imperial uncle-in-law!'

People of the imperial family could control their emotions to perfection. In a blink of an eye, Yan Shengrui not only regained his quiet tone, but even revealed a faint smile. And the way he looked at Duke Zeng was with a slice of respect and gratitude. Taking this opportunity, Zheng Dezi asked some people to carry Censor Zhu'™s body out. He could only blame for his own bad luck. Through the whole Qing Kingdom, who dare declare Highness Sheng guilty?

"Your Majesty, Highness Sheng's behavior may be rash, but it'™s pardonable. Anyone who insults anyone of the imperial family must die! The late emperor'™s father gave the censor the power was to more deeply understand the hardships of the people, so to bring better benefit to them, but not to let them act beyond their power to frame the imperial family. I am not clear about before. But after today, I see it clearly. If Crown Princess Sheng is really like a monster who only brings disasters to the kingdom and its people, I have no objections of Censor Zhu reporting him, maybe I will also echo him. But from the very beginning, what he accused of is all his family things, even things between their husband and wife thing. Your Majesty, if everyone brings others'™ family affairs or even things between husband and wife to discuss before the court, will we still have time for the state affairs and about how to benefit the people?'

Duke Zeng was so sharp, totally not giving them any face, even implicitly being sarcastic that Yan Shengzhi is a fatuous emperor for parroting with his officials. It were someone else, Yan Shengzhi had already lost his temper. But the one who said that was Duke Zeng, official to three emperors, the guardian angel of the whole Qing Kingdom, and also an old bandit who was famous for being justifiable and tough. If he dare challenge him today, without any doubt, the old man would definitely take out the gold sword the late emperor rewarded him, which could be used to beat any fatuous emperor and kill those treacherous officials.

"I agree. To put it bluntly, he is only Highness Sheng'™s wife. Even Highness Sheng doesn'™t care, what position are we in to make gestures? If we interfere wantonly, we will only add trouble. And once Highness Sheng'™s backyard gets in a mess, how would he have the heart to go to wars? Your Majesty, please don'™t generate any gap with your own brother for some treacherous official'™s words!'

Before Yan Shengzhi said anything, Duke Yuan also stood out. His eldest son had become more and more outstanding under Crown Princess Sheng'™s teaching, how could he not lend a hand?

"I agree!'

The next second, all military officials knelt down. Seeing that, those under the lead of the right prime minister Sun Liang also knelt down, 'œI agree.'

Most of the civil officials chose to stand Highness Sheng'™s side, which meant that Crown Princess Sheng did nothing wrong. Maybe Yan Shengzhi had a lot of flaws, as an emperor, he had one merit no emperor had'”he would accept others'™ admonitions. Even someone shouted abuse while pointing at his nose, as long as what he said had some sense, though mad on spot, he'™d reflect on himself after going back.

"What you two said is reasonable. I'™m too narrow-minded and nearly misunderstood Crown Princess Sheng. Shengrui, hope you wouldn'™t take it to heart. Censor Zhu deserves it. And I also won'™t sentence you to crime of killing the censor before the court. Crown Princess Sheng has done a good job managing your mansion. I'™ll reward him a pair of jade ruyi.'

Although he felt kind of upset for not being able to frustrate Yan Shengrui'™s sharpness, as he could cease the fire in time and found himself a step down, he already had nothing to be unsatisfied with now. His imperial uncle-in-law said right. As the emperor, how could he set his eyes on the backyard such a minor place? Even not wanting to, he had conferred him the title. Why still care about his doings in his own mansion? Besides, the more unreasonable he behaved, the more favored the situation was to him, right? Because only those who moved would make mistakes. The more moves Yan Shengrui'™s crown prince made, the great chances he made mistakes. Some day, he'™d become the perfect Yan Shengrui'™s only fatal spot!

But was that really the case? Would Ling Jingxuan give him that opportunity? Soon, Yan Shengzhi would learn how naive his idea was.
