Within the Imperial Palace.
Cheng Yaojin rushed to the Imperial Palace. Under the guidance of a eunuch, he arrived at a side hall.
As soon as he entered the side hall, he saw Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling already there.
Suddenly, Cheng Yaojin's expression became serious. He felt that something was wrong. It was normal for him to be led to the side hall. After all, he was the culprit!
Why were Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling here?
" You didn't see His Majesty?"
Cheng Yaojin looked at the two of them and had a bad feeling.
As expected, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling nodded silently.
"We had just arrived at the Imperial Palace when we were led into a side hall. His Majesty has yet to appear!”
Fang Xuanling shook his head and stood up. He patted Cheng Yaojin's shoulder and comforted him,""His Majesty shouldn't care too much about children playing around!”
"But it's related to the imperial power after all!"
Cheng Yaojin was a little uneasy and worried. Since ancient times, anyone who was involved with the imperial power did not have a good ending!
"There's no need to worry so much. His Majesty is magnanimous and not a petty person. His Majesty also knows about you becoming the Emperor back then!”
Du Ruhui also consoled.
"And today, it was Chumo who said that he was crazy! Something that even the imperial physicians know!"
Du Ruhui winked at Cheng Yaojin.
"Eh?" Cheng Yaojin blinked, still unable to react.
Fang Xuanling whispered.
"You're right. Chumo's madness hasn't recovered, so he's spouting nonsense. His Majesty won't be calculative with a lunatic!”
"Hiss, right, right, right!"
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin completely reacted. This matter was ultimately because of Cheng Chumo's nonsense!
However, the imperial physician had already come to examine him. Cheng Chumo was completely crazy. Could the words of a lunatic be trusted?
"Hahaha, my son is crazy! His Majesty shouldn't blame me!”
Cheng Yaojin also smiled, but he felt much more relaxed. With an excuse, he could rely on himself to follow Li Shiming for more than ten years. No matter what, nothing would happen!
"Hmph, I don't think so. Not only is your son not crazy, but he's actually very smart!”
At this moment, Li Shi Min's imposing voice rang out.
Soon after, footsteps could be heard as a figure slowly appeared in front of the three of them.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Cheng Yaojin and the other two bowed respectfully.
Li Shiming glanced at the three of them and said nothing. He walked up to the chair and sat down. He tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers and looked at Cheng Yaojin.
"Cheng Yaojin, you gave birth to a good son!”
"Not good!"
Cheng Yaojin was shocked. He was obviously scared out of his wits. He quickly knelt on the ground and started begging for mercy.
"Wuwuwuwu! Your Majesty, I'm suffering! I only have one son, and he's crazy! It's fine if he's crazy, but he's still trying to scam me! Wuwuwu! Your Majesty is suffering!"
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling took two steps back silently and watched Cheng Yaojin's performance. Crying was Cheng Yaojin's specialty!
"Hehe, is that so? That's not necessarily true!"
Normally, Li Shiming would laugh out of anger after Cheng Yaojin's actions and would not bother about it anymore. However, today, Li Shiming's face was still dark. He looked at Cheng Yaojin quietly and sneered.
"Hiss!"
Cheng Yaojin took a deep breath and panicked. Was something really going to happen today? He secretly looked up at Li Shiming and saw his burning eyes and cold face!
"Your Majesty, the imperial physicians of the Imperial Academy of Medicine have examined this minister's son. He is indeed stupid! Sob, sob. Sob, sob, I only have one son! And a fool! I beg Your Majesty!"
Cheng Yaojin had no other choice but to cry!
In front of the Emperor, what else could you do other than cry miserably? Could it be that you wanted to reason with the Emperor? This was what Wei Zheng did, not Cheng Yaojin!
"Your Majesty, Nephew Chumo has indeed gone crazy. He seems to have returned to normal today, but he is still a little crazy. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!”
Fang Xuanling saw that the situation was not right. He originally thought that Li Shiming was just scaring Cheng Yaojin, but now it seemed that Li Shiming was really angry, so he quickly pleaded.
"That's right, Your Majesty. Cheng Yaojin only has one son. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!”
Du Ruhui pleaded.
After all, they were all good brothers who had gone through life and death. The only son of a brother naturally had to help beg for mercy!
However, Li Shi Min remained indifferent to the pleas of the three men. His aura was extremely cold, and a faint killing intent filled the entire side hall!
"Hiss!"
Cheng Yaojin and the other two naturally sensed that something was wrong. They were all shocked. His Majesty was really angry this time!
"Your Majesty! This old minister is willing to take the blame for my son! Cut off the title of Duke, cut off all official positions, and become an ordinary citizen. I beg Your Majesty to let my son go!”
Cheng Yaojin stopped crying. His face turned serious as he bowed respectfully to Li Shiming and said loudly.
"Sigh!"
Hearing this, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling shook their heads helplessly and sighed. This matter might not be easy to resolve!
