”Fang Tang's already injured, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao replied
Grand Preceptor Xie shook his head ”That's not a punishment”
”Old gra Xiaoyao cli with Elder Li ”Does the Grand Preceptor have ulterior ?”
Elder Li said, ”No ives Xie Anji, the punish will be harsher”
”That cheap scu Xiaoyao cursed
Elder Li furrowed his brows ”Your Majesty, Xie Wenyuan is your randchild is allowed to curse their grandparent like that
Ning Xiaoyao nodded ”Old gra things”
”……” said Elder Li
Ning Xiaoyao walked in front of the Xie father and son pair and said, ”I understand Grand Preceptor's ”
Grand Preceptor Xie was cold ”Then how is Your Majesty planning to punish Fang Tang?”
Ning Xiaoyao's flexed her fingers before raising a hand to slap Xie Anji across the face, sending the taller ainst the landing before rolling down the steps just like Fang Tang before him Everyone was silent His Majesty looks sth?
”I'll do this to Fang Tang later as well,” Ning Xiaoyao told Grand Preceptor Xie ”Grand Preceptor, you needn't worry I'll definitely usewas the first in the wrong”
The crowd couldn't help but stay speechless Who would dare speak up and accuse His Majesty of being shameless at a time like this?
Grand Preceptor Xie was forced to sn his rising tein with, but now his vision was turning black Now one of the officials fro is a meui for the crime of insubordination from his subordinate”
”I pardon Supre Xiaoyao stood up with her hands behind her back to face the loyal Grand Preceptor apologist ”Any objections?”
The official instantly cried out, ”If Your Majesty does this, it's too unfair!”
”Unfair?” Ning Xiaoyao echoed ”Then what's 'fair?' I'm the emperor and you're a subject, but you want equal treatment from me? Your Excellency, hoill you feel if I let you sit on that throne in the audience hall?”
What common sense is that?! The official was so furious that he nearly spat up blood, but he still fell to his knees and said, ”This official doesn't dare”
”This subject asks that Your Majesty do not treat Fang Tang's wounds,” Lou Zigui bowed towards Ning Xiaoyao ”That wretch dared to make a commotion in front of the Hall of Golden Chimes Severe punishment is necessary”
”Supreht,” Elder Li walked over ”Severe punish”
Ning Xiaoyao looked down at Grand Preceptor Xie ”Are you happy now?”
Grand Preceptor Xie simply slapped his armrests ”This official will take his leave” I can't collapse in front of Ning Yu yet again!
The two eunuchs who had carried him out of the hall were both the Grand Preceptor'sXiaoyao's side, they couldn't simply carry Grand Preceptor Xie without permission
”Carry hi Xiaoyao waved a hand It'd be better if I never see Grand Preceptor Xie again
Grand Preceptor Xie brought away the unconscious Xie Anji lying at the foot of the stairs He didn't look like the defeated party when he left, nor did he flee the scene Xie Anji had publicly stabbed Fang Tang but only got a slap from His Majesty as punishht could tell that Yongning was still a place where the sovereign held less power than his officials
”That there, let's go back and eat,” Ning Xiaoyao said after glancing at Elder Li
”Your Majesty,” Elder Li replied, ”This official has words to discuss with you”
”ButXiaoyao insisted
Elder Li looked at Ning Xiaoyao with a grave face She gave him a wooden expression in response
”Your Majesty,” Elder Li said, ”Why did Fang Tang do that?”
”I don't know, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao shook her head
”This official doesn't believe it Your Majesty shouldn't joke with this official,” Elder Li shook his head as well
Ning Xiaoyao was vexed I really don't know, ah! Can't people trust each other's words?
”His Majesty has already said how he'll punish Fang Tang,” Lou Zigui spoke up ”Is Elder dissatisfied?”
Elder Li furrowed his brows to glare at Supreme Commander Lou ”If His Majesty has no idea, then did you incite it on the sly, Supre?”
”Don't,” Ning Xiaoyao pushed Lou Zigui behind her ”Old gramps, don't be like that, c’mon~”
”Speak properly!” Elder Li felt goosebuo 'c’e to rebuke her soundly
”……” said the crowd Elder, is it really alright for you to yell at His Majesty like that?
