But when he said this, didn't he instantly step on Shen Mufeng's lungs?

Emperor Yanping, who was sitting high up at the head of the table, was calmly fiddling with the rosary in his hand while watching the civil and military ministers quarreling with each other. Suddenly, he discovered that his favorite Jade-faced General had changed his expression.

Shen Mufeng's handsome face turned so dark that it was unbearable to look at. He took a step forward and glanced at the other person coldly. His poisonous lips were firing at full power, and when he was mean, he was no less than a civil official.

"What Minister Zheng said is so ridiculous that it confuses right and wrong!

It was clearly your daughter from the Zheng family who murdered the legitimate son of Prince Ding first, and then arrogantly killed the legitimate son with a concubine, disregarding the ancestral etiquette and laws! You say that you have disrupted the principles of heaven and earth, but no matter how chaotic it is, it can't be more chaotic than the ambitions of your Zheng family!

It's a pity, how could Pei Dingyang be so lucky to be bumped into by us unlucky people? If we hadn't met him, you, Zheng Shangshu, would probably be a serious old Taishan of Prince Ding, right?

No wonder our journey back to Beijing was full of dangers, and we had to go through a bloody storm to get back. After all this time, among those who robbed and killed us, who knows if your Zheng family contributed to it?

But come to think of it, it's understandable that you'd be eager to take a bite of such a big piece of meat like Jiangnan Road, but the way you eat it is a little too indecent.

It can be seen that whether it is external or internal, your Zheng family education clearly needs to be strengthened!"

This burst of babble completely subverted his usual cold and taciturn image. Of course, he was still mean, but it just gave people a feeling that something was wrong.

All the kings and ministers in the hall who knew this fellow were stunned when they heard what he said.

No, is Shen Mufeng crazy?

Why is he standing up to confront the Zheng family?

for what?

Hahaha.

His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, who had a clear mind, looked at the confused Zheng family members. He cynically raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled.

You have poked someone's heart, who else can he bite if not you? You deserve it!

However, Pei Changjing's smile, "You ignorant mortals, you don't know anything", instantly made the other people, who were as smart as lotus roots, clear their minds.

Oh, so it was for His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, to add insult to injury? It must be said that Shen Mufeng was indeed a very loyal person, and he was very supportive of Prince Xuan, who was a bad friend.

Prince Kang stood on the other side, clenching his left hand behind his back in anger. Pei Changyu really couldn't figure out where he was inferior to the sixth brother.

Why would a minister like Shen Mufeng, who is both good at fighting and has the emperor's favor, be so blind as to get involved with a bastard like Pei Changjing? If he is willing to come over, I will welcome him with open arms!

The emperor raised his eyebrows indifferently and looked at the expressions of the people below. After two breaths of silence, he did not scold anyone, but slowly moved his posture and turned the rosary in his hand again, and continued to sit aside and watch the show calmly.

Regardless of whether it was the Zheng family or the Shen family, even if the third and sixth sons were involved, it would not matter. It would be good to let them all come out and make a fuss to relieve the fatigue of the court officials, so that those old guys who had nothing better to do would not keep staring at the issue of establishing a crown prince all day long.

It’s not enough to make me feel upset!

There is absolutely no fool who can stand in this hall. Everyone secretly looked at the emperor's face, wondering if the king would be angry?

Although nothing can be seen, this is a good thing. At least it gives them a way to defend themselves.

Zheng Kecheng is not a young boy. He was speechless for a moment after being confronted. After he came to his senses, he became angry and embarrassed.

"Shen's son, what you said is too deceiving. What does my Zheng family's education have to do with your Shen family? Besides, today's incident clearly said that Pei Dingyang of Dingwang Mansion was disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unjust. What are you talking about here?"

"He is just a nine-year-old child, and cannot bear the crime you have imposed on him, Lord Zheng.

We were just sending the child home with good intentions. If it weren't for your unreasonable behavior, would he, the legitimate son of the royal family, have to rely on outsiders like us to enter his own family?

Even if you say anything, your Zheng family is still in the wrong!"

Chu Zongyuan is a good man. He stood up to support his bad friend at the critical moment. He is not afraid of quarrels! Anyway, the emperor's attitude of turning a blind eye has been made very clear, so let's just fight!

Oh yes!

And there is this shameless guy from the Chu family. If he hadn’t jumped out, I would have forgotten about him.

Zheng Kecheng snorted coldly and pointed his sword at Chu Zongyuan's father, the Minister of Justice Chu Zhankui.

"Master Chu, I heard that the crazy woman who dared to hurt Prince Ding and Concubine Zheng was from your Chu family? I thought I had never done anything dirty with you, why did you bully me to this extent?"

Minister Chu, who had been standing aside, frowned fiercely upon hearing what was said, and cursed the third brother, that little bastard, in his heart.

No wonder this little bastard insisted on asking his father to come to the palace with him. He knew that he would never be able to rest easy with this little bastard! He and his wife must have sinned by giving birth to such a thing!

But no matter how much my kid scolds me, I can't let him down, right? So the old fox asked sincerely, pretending to know nothing.

"Ah? I don't know either! When did it happen? Lord Zheng, you can't wrongly accuse people.

Everyone in the court knows that our Chu family has always been a family of poetry and etiquette, and we are most particular about being polite and courteous. How disrespectful is fighting and killing? It has absolutely nothing to do with our Chu family.

No, I can’t.”

"Don't make such shameless excuses. Why don't you ask your good son if that woman claims to be a daughter of the Chu family?"

Just before entering the palace, Zheng Kecheng had already found out everything from the servants around his daughter, and he was definitely not wrong!

Minister Chu turned his head to look at his son, and Chu Zongyuan chuckled guiltily. No one knows a son better than his father. He closed his eyes tiredly, knowing that this was probably related to his Chu family.

Wait until I leave the palace before I talk to you. If I don’t beat you so hard that even your mother can’t recognize you, then I, your biological father, will be merciful!

Turning back, he met the accusatory face of old man Zheng. He grinned, twitched his beard slightly, and put on an exceptionally amiable smile.

"There are so many people with the last name Chu in this world. How do you know that he must be from my branch?"

"Oh? So the implication is that the woman named Chu Chi has nothing to do with your Chu family? If that's the case, then it's just right..."

"Master Zheng, look how anxious you are. Don't be so impatient. You should talk things over nicely, right?

Didn't I just say that there are many people with the surname Chu in the world? How do you know that the person is definitely from my branch? And how do you know that the person is definitely not from my branch?"

"What do you mean?"

what for?

Just arguing!

The old fox from the Chu family smiled broadly, and continued to output steadily and slowly.
