Chapter 59: The Marquis of Changping is guilty of a serious crime



Could it be that Marquis Changping has gone crazy?

Just as the commander of the Imperial Guards was about to go over and ask, the Imperial Master suddenly appeared at the palace gate.

This matter soon reached the emperor's ears, and the memorial in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.

I don’t know what they were talking about, but why did Marquis Changping start kowtow every three steps?

"Summon the imperial teacher to me." The eunuch beside him could clearly feel that the emperor was extremely angry.

He did not dare to delay and hurried to find the imperial teacher.

The Imperial Master saw the eunuch hurrying and stopped him with the whisk in his hand, asking calmly, "What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"His Majesty looks very angry. I am summoning you, my lord. Please follow me immediately and be careful."

Was the emperor angry? Perhaps it was because he made the Marquis of Changping kowtow every three steps.

Arriving at the Yangxin Palace, the emperor stood with his hands behind his back, staring coldly at the Imperial Preceptor, "What kind of sin did the Marquis of Changping commit that the Imperial Preceptor would make him kowtow every three steps?"

"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Changping has committed grave sins. Doing this will only lessen his guilt."

"Oh?" The emperor was a little confused and wanted to know what kind of sin it was. The imperial preceptor was unable to answer for a while.

"Your Majesty, everything is destined, so why bother asking?"

At this moment, the scene became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop clearly.

"National Master, have you forgotten that I am the Son of Heaven, the Supreme Ruler, and you must answer whatever I ask you."

"Your Majesty, I cannot speak. Please don't make things difficult for me." The imperial teacher knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.

There are some things that really cannot be said, and once they are said, the consequences will be unimaginable.

When the time comes, he will be punished by heaven and earth, his soul will be shattered, and he will never be able to be a human again in his lifetime.

After all, not everyone can defy the laws of nature.

The Imperial Master, kneeling on the ground, still had some skills. The Emperor sighed helplessly in his heart and looked up at him. "Now that things have come to this, I will not ask any more questions. If there is a next time, I will have you beaten with thirty boards."

Waving his hand, the Imperial Master stood up from the ground, understanding the Emperor's intention. "Your humble servant understands. I will take my leave first."

After he left, the emperor asked the eunuch beside him, "What did they talk about?"

The eunuch thought for a moment and replied, "It seems that the Marquis of Changping has been suffering from nightmares that cannot be resolved. The Imperial Master told him to kowtow every three steps before returning to the Marquis of Changping's mansion."

The people soon learned about this and were all surprised.

Gu Yunni also knew about it, but she found it unbelievable. After all, how could the Marquis of Changping be so arrogant as to be willing to lower himself?

After all, before doing this, he should have thought that it would spread all over the city in the future.

When Marquis Changping kowtowed every three steps and returned to his mansion, Mrs. Kou was already waiting there.

Seeing the bleeding forehead of the Marquis of Changping, he felt extremely distressed and hurriedly helped him up, "This kind of nonsense..."

Before Madam Kou could finish her words, the Marquis of Changping covered her mouth and said, "Be careful with your words! Do not say such words again. If I hear you again, I will not forgive you."

I didn't expect Marquis Changping to say this. Judging from his expression, he was serious.

They had been together for so many years, but he had never treated her like this. Mrs. Kou's eyes were filled with tears.

The maids beside her just stayed there silently, not daring to say a word.

Only after Marquis Changping and Madam Kou came in did the maids wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads with their hands.

"What do you think happened to the Marquis? Why did he come back..."

The maidservant hadn't even finished her words when the steward kicked her to the ground. "The Marquis has just issued an order: anyone who dares to gossip will be beaten to death. This is a warning; next time, they'll be dragged to the mass grave!"

The maids were trembling with fear.

On the other side, Gu Yunni learned that the Marquis of Changping had knelt from the Imperial Palace to the Marquis of Changping's Mansion today, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "How interesting."

As he thought about it, he counted on his fingers and sneered.

This national teacher is really good.

I just don’t know if I will be able to fight with this national master one day?

The Imperial Master was meditating with his eyes closed when he suddenly felt someone looking at him from the southwest. It was the aura of the Phoenix Girl.

He wanted to leave the palace, but when he reached the palace gate, he saw the eunuch beside the emperor, "Your Majesty asked me to ask the Imperial Master if it will rain tomorrow."

"Only after observing the celestial phenomena tonight can I answer such a question. There are no stars or moon outside. I really don't know how to answer. Why do you ask this, Your Majesty?"

The emperor rarely asks such questions, why does he ask today?

"The emperor's will is hard to predict. I don't know. I only know that your majesty asked me to come and ask."

The Imperial Master was silent for a moment before nodding. "If I observe anything tonight, I will inform you immediately. I still have to go to the palace now."

The eunuch did not stop him. It seemed that the imperial teacher had been living in the palace since he arrived here.

Logically speaking, the Imperial Master is a minister of the imperial court and should have his own residence. Why has he been living in a side hall all this time?

Unfortunately, he was just a small eunuch and didn't understand much.

The eunuch couldn't help but look up at the sky. The sky was quite blue, and there was a scent of the sky clearing up after the rain.

For some reason, the eunuch always felt as if something was staring at him. He turned his head and happened to see a little black cat.

The little black cat kept staring at the eunuch and meowing at him. The eunuch didn't understand what was going on and walked over.

As for the Imperial Master, she had left the palace, but after that she lost all her Phoenix Girl aura.

This trip was in vain.

Prince's Mansion.

"Hehe, are you sure that the Marquis of Changping knelt from the gate of the imperial palace to the Marquis of Changping's Mansion today, and you didn't deceive me?" Du Changming stood up, walked to the man in black, pinched his chin, looked straight at him, trying to tell from his expression whether he was deceiving him.

"Your Highness, I dare not deceive you. This is the truth. If you do not believe me, you can send someone else to investigate."

Du Changming fell silent, unable to understand what Marquis Changping meant.

As the Marquis of Changping, with such a noble status, he actually knelt all the way from the gate of the imperial palace to the door of his own home.

Thinking of this, he laughed out loud a few times, scaring the palace maids and eunuchs beside him.

"I never thought that the Marquis of Changping would have such a day. Please pay close attention to the actions of the Marquis of Changping's mansion recently. If there is anything wrong, please inform me."

"I understand." After a moment's thought, the man in black said again, "Your Highness, the Marquis of Changping knelt from the Imperial Palace to the Marquis of Changping's Mansion today, apparently because of the words of the Imperial Master."

Because of the Imperial Master? What did the Imperial Master say to him? He was rather curious.

"Little Li, go to the palace and invite the Imperial Preceptor to the Crown Prince's residence."

When Little Leo heard this, thin beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
