Li Er dryly coughed. This Cheng Chuyou had gone too far. Even a silkpants had to have a limit. If he had beaten Hou Junji's Second Young Master into a pig's head, anyone would have been angry.
The father was a bastard, and the son was even more of a bastard.
This time, Li Er also planned to punish Cheng Chuyou properly so that he could restrain his silkpants temper.
"Cheng Chuyou, do you know your sins?" Li Er looked at Cheng Chuyou with a dignified expression.
What the f * ck? The aura of a king? Was this the legendary aura of a king?
Even though Cheng Chuyou was a playboy, he still felt a little pressured by Li Er's dignified gaze. Fortunately, it only took him a short while to get used to it.
Straightening her body and clearing her throat, Cheng Chuyou looked at Li Er and said,"Your Majesty, I'm not guilty. Not only is he not guilty, but he has also done a meritorious deed."
Hearing Cheng Chuyou's words, Cheng Yaojin's heart skipped a beat. This son of his really dared to say that he had done something meritorious even after beating someone up.
Even he was ashamed of his inferior ability to lie through his teeth.
"Shut up, you ignorant brat. Don't speak nonsense here.”Hou Junji coldly harrumphed, a cold smile on his face."Your Majesty, this child doesn't know how to repent. He's really rude. Please punish him severely.”
Li Er also frowned, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed across his eyes.
You little brat, why don't you go along with the flow? If you had confessed, I could have punished you a little more leniently, but now that Hou Junji has hit you where it hurts, you have no choice but to punish me.
Cheng Chuyou looked fearlessly at Hou Junji."High Duke, I haven't even said why I'm not guilty, and you're already in such a hurry. Isn't this revenge a little too intense? Moreover, as an elder, aren't you afraid that people will laugh at you if you say that you're taking revenge on a junior like me?”
"You, don't talk nonsense. I'm only telling the truth. There's no such thing as revenge.”Hou Junji grimaced. If word got out that he was taking revenge on a junior, he would lose all his face.
Cheng Chuyou bowed and looked at Li Er."Your Majesty, don't you want to know why I'm not guilty?”
"Alright, since you say you're innocent, then tell me. Let me hear if you're really innocent.”Li Er was interested. He wanted to see what Cheng Chuyou had to say.
Cheng Chuyou nodded."High Duke, you only know that I beat up your son. Do you know why I beat him up?”
"Hmph, everyone in the capital knows that you're the number one silkpants in the capital. It's up to you to find trouble with others.”Hou Junji coldly harrumphed.
Cheng Chuyou smiled." Duke, I beat your son up because he's shameless and despicable. He doesn't have any respect for the emperor."”
"You, don't talk nonsense." Cheng Chuyou's words caused Hou Junji's heart to tremble. However, that treasonous person had no respect for the emperor. This was a huge taboo.
"Nonsense? Then you should ask Second Young Master Hou if he would snatch someone from the streets just because his wife is pretty.”Cheng Chuyou sneered and looked at Li Er."Your Majesty, when I stopped Hou Qing at that time, he was even more arrogant. He said that his brother-in-law was the Crown Prince, the future Emperor, and that he would be the Imperial Brother-in-law in the future. Your Majesty, you are my idol. This kind of person actually relies on the power of the Crown Prince and doesn't care about the laws that Your Majesty has set. He is more than ten times rebellious and has no respect for the Son of Heaven. That's why I took action to teach him a lesson.”
Hou Junji's face paled. There was nothing much in front of them. If they snatched a girl on the street, Li Er would at most scold them.
However, the last few words were harsh. Who didn't know how the current emperor became the emperor? Not to mention that the Emperor was in his prime, even in his twilight years, he was very taboo about such things. His stupid son actually said such a thing. He was purely courting death.
As expected, when Hou Junji looked up, he saw Li Er's icy gaze, and his entire body began to tremble.
This was really a failure to steal a chicken and a loss of rice. This time, let alone punishing Cheng Chuyou, how they could escape was a big problem.
"Alright, children are not sensible. Junji, when you go back, you must discipline him strictly.”Li Er said to Hou Junji.
"Yes, yes." Hou Junji's forehead was covered in sweat.
Although Li Er didn't say anything harsh, the heart of the Son of Heaven was unpredictable. The more it was like this, the more terrifying it was.
"As for Cheng Chuyou, although you are excusable, you have to control your temper. I will punish you to go to the Heavenly Policy Prefecture to learn the art of war.”Li Er said.
"Uh..." Cheng Chuyou was stunned. Was this a punishment or a reward? He actually wanted to go to the Heavenly Policy Manor (the Heavenly Policy Manor was still in existence, so he hoped that it wouldn't be too complicated)?
Hou Junji's face alternated between green and white, but he didn't dare say anything. This time, not only did he fail to steal a chicken and suffer a loss, but he also sat on someone else's wedding dress.
Although it was a punishment, it was actually a reward. What kind of place was the Heavenly Policy Office? It was ranked first among the military officials, above the Fourteenth House of Guards.
More importantly, this was an organization directly under the current Emperor, and it included Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde, Cheng Zhijie, Hou Junji, Qin Qiong, Zhangsun Wuji, Chai Shao, Luo Cheng, Shi Wanbao, Li Ji, Liu Hongji, and others. These people had all once been members of the Heavenly Policy Manor.
The position of the Heavenly Policy Manor in the Emperor's heart was obvious. There were countless people in the imperial court who wanted to go but couldn't. Yet, Cheng Chuyou was punished there. It sounded unbelievable.
"Your Majesty, can I not go?" Cheng Chuyou said with a sad face.
This Li Er was not punishing him. He was clearly trying to nurture him. Cheng Chuyou couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It seemed that he had gone too far today.
"No, this is an order. If you don't go, you'll be disobeying it.”Li Er said.
"Bastard brat, what do you know? Hurry up and thank me.”Cheng Yaojin was even more direct. He slapped Cheng Chuyou on the head and almost agreed on his behalf.
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Chuyou said weakly. He just wanted to be a playboy who enjoyed life. He would tease the shy little handmaiden and fight with her to increase his life-saving skills. This was great. He was directly thrown to the Heavenly Policy Manor to learn the art of war. As expected, the world was unpredictable.
"Alright, all of you can leave.”Li Er waved his hand and sent the four of them away.
"Haha, thank you, Old Hou. I really have to thank you today.”After leaving the imperial study, Cheng Yaojin clasped his hands and thanked Hou Junji. If it hadn't been for Hou Junji, how could his bastard son have entered the Heavenly Policy Manor? Although he was only going to study the art of war, becoming a member of the Heavenly Policy Manor was already set in stone.
"Hmph, let's go." Hou Junji coldly harrumphed. He had truly suffered a double loss.
Some people were happy and some were sad, but Cheng Yaojin seemed to be the only one who was happy.
As for Cheng Chuyou, she looked depressed.
