After receiving Ying Zheng's order, the people in the palace went out to bring Zhao Gao into the palace.
Fortunately.
When all the officials learned that they would not be attending the morning court session, they were also leaving the palace.
Among them was Zhao Gao.
At this moment, Zhao Gaozheng was very happy.
When the people who came out of Ying Zheng's palace saw Zhao Gao, they hurriedly came up and called out to him.
"Lord Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate, His Majesty invites you.”
Zhao Gao looked at the two old eunuchs standing in front of him.
He was a little surprised.
Why did Ying Zheng look for him?
On second thought, could it be that Huhai had already won the heart of the Emperor, and that was why Ying Zheng remembered him as his teacher?
Should he go over and praise her?
That should be the case.
Zhao Gao nodded confidently.
"Let's go."
……
He followed the people from the palace to Ying Zheng's bedroom.
Zhao Gao entered.
He observed his expression.
It could be seen that Ying Zheng was in a good mood at the moment.
He was also holding a black cat in his arms, which he did not know when it had appeared. It was staring at him lazily.
Zhao Gao did not pay too much attention to the cat.
He bowed to Ying Zheng in a submissive manner.
"Zhao Gao greets Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng didn't let him get up. Instead, he played with the cat in his arms and said in an unreadable tone.
"Zhao Gao, you've taught my eighteenth prince well.”
Zhao Gao did not hear the irony in Ying Zheng's words.
He thought that Ying Zheng was really praising him.
He was overjoyed.
He thought that his plan must have succeeded!
Huhai was concerned about Ying Zheng's physical condition, and Ying Zheng felt Huhai's filial piety.
However, there was no obvious joy on Zhao Gao's feminine face.
He replied very calmly.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me. I am the teacher of the eighteenth prince, so I naturally have the responsibility to teach the eighteenth prince well.”
Ying Zheng did not look at Zhao Gao, but was still playing with the lazy black cat in his arms.
He suddenly said.
"It was you who told Huhai that I was sick and asked him to come over before dawn to show his filial piety?”
Hearing this, Zhao Gao was slightly stunned.
He looked in Huhai's direction.
However, Huhai had his head lowered, and no expression could be seen on his face.
Zhao Gao thought to himself,'It must be because Huhai and Ying Zheng were so happy just now that they accidentally let it slip.'
However, since Ying Zheng had praised him for his good teaching, he was definitely not trying to hold him accountable.
Huhai lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him. He must be feeling shy.
What a good child!
He even knew how to praise himself in front of Ying Zheng. He had indeed lived up to his efforts to push him to that position!
Zhao Gao's heart was filled with joy. He still didn't know how serious the matter was.
"Your Majesty, there is indeed such a thing."
After Ying Zheng heard the reply, he placed his large hand on the cat in his arms and stroked its fur.
The hall fell into a strange silence.
It was as if a storm was brewing…
A layer of sweat gradually appeared on Zhao Gao's forehead.
He had been serving Ying Zheng for many years, and at this moment, he could feel that the anger in Ying Zheng's body was increasing.
Ying Zheng raised his eyes and looked down at Zhao Gao.
Even though he was holding a cat in his arms, it did not hinder the majestic majesty of an emperor from his body.
"Zhao Gao, do you know your crimes?"
Plop.
Zhao Gao felt fear in his heart under the pair of cold eyes in front of him. He knelt down without hesitation.
"I…know my sins!"
"I shouldn't have let the eighteenth prince stand guard outside His Majesty's bedroom in the cold wind before dawn.”
"I just wanted Your Majesty to wake up so that you could see your favorite prince…I was thoughtless!”
Zhao Gao's words were indeed technical.
On the surface, he was confessing his guilt, but in fact, he was indirectly saying that he was doing this to make Ying Zheng happy.
However, he did not know that the matter was far more serious than he had imagined!
"Zhao Gao, how dare you!"
"You actually dare to speculate on the Emperor's Heart and instigate the prince!”
"Do you really think that I am praising you for teaching my son well?”
Ying Zheng's sudden outburst of anger made Zhao Gao feel uneasy.
He had served Ying Zheng for so many years, and everything had always been smooth sailing for him.
He had already guessed 70 - 80% of the other party's thoughts.
This was the first time that Ying Zheng was so angry with him.
It shouldn't be.
Even if Ying Zheng knew that he was the one who had arranged for Huhai to come and visit him…
Huhai was Ying Zheng's favorite prince, and he was Ying Zheng's favorite subject.
They had joined forces, a match made in heaven!
Ying Zheng could only be kept in the dark by them.
Even if they had worked together to play some tricks and were discovered, Ying Zheng wouldn't be so angry, right?
"I know my sins. I let down Your Majesty's high hopes and did not teach the eighteenth prince well!”
Although Zhao Gao had doubts in his heart, he did not dare to show them at this time.
Ying Zheng was in a fit of anger, so he could only plead guilty obediently.
He had already confessed, so Ying Zheng should be able to scold him a little, right?
This was what Zhao Gao thought.
But he was wrong.
"You are guilty. If you didn't make Huhai wander around outside my bedroom before dawn, he wouldn't have had the chance to bully my cat!”
“？？？”
Zhao Gao, who was kneeling on the ground, lowered his head. His face was shocked, and his heart was filled with doubt.
What the hell?
He could still understand the first few sentences, but what about the cat that Ying Zheng mentioned at the end?
"Huhai splashed my cat all over. If my cat is sick, I will settle the score with you!”
"I'll first punish you with three months of salary."
Zhao Gao couldn't believe it!
It was only at this moment that he truly sized up the cat in Ying Zheng's arms.
"Meow!" (Nice job, poop-picker)
For some reason, Zhao Gao had the illusion that the cat was showing him a victorious expression…
That was not right.
How could a beast have human emotions?
The main point was that idiot Huhai!
Why was he provoking a cat instead of guarding outside Ying Zheng's palace?
Wasn't he looking for trouble?
Now, Ying Zheng was also looking at him with a hint of disdain.
Ying Zheng then looked at Huhai, who was standing beside him, not daring to speak.
He said without any mercy.
"Huhai disobeyed the rules of the palace and came here without being summoned. You will be grounded for three months and copied the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty a hundred times!”
Huhai laughed bitterly.
"Oh…"
"Hmm?" Ying Zheng gave him a dangerous glance.
Huhai cupped his hands again and replied,"Yes, Father."”
" Hmph!" Ying Zheng snorted." Add another month of confinement, and copy the Great Qin's laws fifty times!"”
Huhai collapsed…
Zhao Gao's expression also became very ugly.
This was not right!
Ying Zheng actually doted on the cat in his arms so much.
He actually surpassed Huhai?
Zhao Gao keenly sensed that this was extraordinary.
This cat must not be left alive!
