The entire Golden Palace was silent.

Everyone was waiting for Gu Xi to say the reason.

Gu Xi snorted coldly.

"Your eyes are not clean, can this general not be dismissed?"

"..."

Zhao Yong was shocked.

As he spoke, Gu Xi bent down unhurriedly, looking at Zhao Yong's violent eyes full of disgust.

"You should be thankful that this general didn't goug out both of your eyes, and left one so that you can continue to serve the court."

As soon as Gu Xi said this, everyone dared not speak out.

Zhao Yong thought of the frightening scene that night, and a biting chill crept into his heart, trembling and lowering his head, not daring to look at Gu Xi.

If Gu Xi wanted to kill him, it was really as easy as crushing an ant.

He never expected that Gu Xi would dare to be so arrogant in front of the emperor!

Although Gu Xi didn't say this clearly, everyone quickly thought of the past grievances between the two of them.

It is said that Zhao Yong almost married the current wife of the general. Could it be that Zhao Yong is still secretly coveting the wife of the general?

With Gu Xi's temperament, it was considered merciful to lose one of his eyes.

The emperor obviously thought of this too, he just felt that Zhao Yong was a difficult person to be in charge of, so he made trouble for him early in the morning.

"Okay, I'm still here, could it be that neither of you take me seriously?"

Gu Xi pursed his lips and said nothing.

Zhao Yong also buried his head deeply, not daring to look up at the emperor.

This is completely different from what he imagined!

He had thought it all over, with Gu Xi's style, there must be many ministers in the court who had grudges in their hearts, and they would all take this opportunity to make trouble, and the emperor would definitely punish him.

Now the crime has been surrendered, but it is no different from not surrendering.

Those ministers were all so scared to death, none of them dared to stand up and criticize Gu Xi, they even said a lot of bad things about Gu Xi to him on weekdays, now they are all shy turtles!

On the contrary, it was him who offended Longyan, and it was really hard to predict what his career would be like in the future.

Zhao Yong finally understood that it was too simple for him to fight openly and secretly in the court.

The emperor's scrutiny fell on Zhao Yong.

"Originally, I wanted to promote you to an official position. Since you have done something wrong, Gu Xi has already punished you on my behalf. Then this merit and demerit will be offset. In the future, you don't have to come to the morning court, but go to the Imperial Academy to study with a few adults. When I have learned something, I will transfer you back."

Zhao Yong fell to his knees in a hurry, still wanting to intercede for himself.

"His Majesty……"

He could have some real power at hand, but now he has been demoted once or twice, and now he is transferred to the Hanlin Academy. He has no real power at all, even Li Qi can't compare!

Li Qi was afraid that he would secretly laugh at himself.

Thinking of this scene, Zhao Yong felt uneasy.

The emperor was bored, and raised his hand and said, "If there is nothing else to do, all the lovers will retire. I am tired."

Little Fuzi hurried forward to hold the emperor's hand.

Seeing this, everyone retreated one after another.

Soon there were only a few people left in the Golden Luan Hall.

Both Wei Zhongliang and Prime Minister Song hesitated in place and did not leave.

Gu Xi raised his feet and walked out, Wei Zhongliang took advantage of the trend to catch up.

"General Gu, stay here."

Facing Wei Zhongliang, Gu Xi's expression softened a lot.

He nodded and said, "Duke Wei."

Prime Minister Song listened quietly.

"Rou'er... is she in good health?"

Gu Xi guessed that he would ask this, and his tone was respectful.

"Wei Guogong don't have to worry, it will be fine after a few days."

Only then did Wei Zhongliang heave a sigh of relief.

"That's good. Rou'er has been in poor health since she was a child, and I hope General Gu will take care of her."

"Rou'er is my wife, so I will naturally take good care of her."

After getting Gu Xi's answer, Wei Zhongliang left in a hurry without saying anything else.
