"It doesn't matter how you look. After all, it's very difficult to change your natural appearance.”
"But their temperament is different."
Li Zhen looked at the few High Dukes and said with a serious expression,
"It's human nature to be angry from embarrassment, but to others, it's human nature. To the few dukes, it's even more embarrassing for His Majesty if you treat the law of the country as nothing!”
"His Majesty has punished you, but you don't think about your own mistakes and blame others instead!？”
"What will His Majesty think of your actions? What would the other officials think? What will the people think?"
"His Majesty has only issued an edict to reprimand you and has not given you a detailed punishment. Now, you have come to denounce your crimes, leaving behind a complete crime!”
Li Zhen said in a deep voice,
"In that case, even if His Majesty doesn't punish you, he can't let you go! How can we calm the hearts of the people if we don't punish you? How to control the ministers? Have you thought about it?"
The Duke's faces turned pale when he heard these words.
Li Zhen was right!
The state dukes fell into deep thought. If the Emperor really wanted to blame them, he would not just give them a warning and let it go. There would definitely be heavy punishments, such as a reduction in salary and demotion.
But none of them!
Instead, he gave them a verbal warning!
If they really caused any harm to the culprit, Li Zhen, His Majesty would definitely be furious and punish them with lightning!
"Li Zhen."
"Let's forget about this matter for the time being!"
"If you let this old master know about this matter, this old master won't say anything else. I won't participate in the later matters!”
Yuchi Jingde left.
"This old master will also return." Fang Xuanling waved his hand. This matter was originally caused by his carelessness. Now that it was useless to make things difficult for Li Zhen, it was better to quickly think of a way to make up for it.
Cheng Yaojin turned around and left.
"Zhijie, where are you going?" Qin Qiong was stunned.”
"Go home and collect money to pay off the debt."
Cheng Yaojin stopped in his tracks and turned around with a straight face."Didn't you hear what that kid said? If he stayed, would he be able to convince him? Or can this old master speak better than him?"
With that, he left without looking back.
Qin Qiong thought for a moment, then cupped his hands towards the few people beside him and said,"
"Fellow colleagues, this old master will also go back first. The mares at home are about to give birth, and no one can take care of them.”
You f * cking hired someone to take care of it!
Are you going back to see the horses?
The few high dukes glared at him with hatred in their hearts. So what if he ran away? What excuse was he looking for!
Then, the rest of the dukes were at a loss.
What was going on?
They had agreed to come and denounce him, but why did Li Zhen say that he would turn hostility into friendship?!
Half of them had left.
What the f * ck was there to say!
"Alright, you're good!"
"This old master will not argue with you today. Let's ride a donkey and read a song.”
"Don't think that this matter is over. Just you two wait and see how this old man will deal with you in the imperial court!”
The state dukes 'faces flushed red, but they had no choice. They were simply asking for humiliation by bickering with a censor. They walked out angrily.
Soon, only Li Jing, Wei Zheng, and Du Yan were left.
Du Yan was a little confused. He glanced at Wei Zheng and whispered,""Doctor Wei, what should we do now?”
"Let's go back first."
Wei Zheng's face was livid as he said angrily in a low voice,"The state dukes have all left. It's like the stage has been removed. There's nothing to see.”
Du Yan was anxious. He pointed at his bruised face and said,"Then my injury-"
"It's a work-related injury."
With that, Wei Zheng left.
Du Yan stood in place with a blank expression. He was extremely indignant and angry. He had been beaten up. He had originally wanted to see Li Zhen end up in a worse state than him. In the end, he was done with just a work-related injury?
"Doctor Wei-"
"Wait for me!"
Du Yan glared at Li Zhen angrily and chased after him.
Li Ji, who was at the side, was stunned.
What was going on?
After his own child said something, everyone who came to denounce him went back?
So his own child was so strong?
Li Ji was somewhat happy, but also somewhat anxious as he looked at the only remaining Duke.
At this moment, Li Zhen was looking at him.
Li Jing also looked at him with a smile.
The two of them stared at each other, but no one said a word.
