The princess is rebellious and brings space to make trouble for the villain

at this time.

The sky is getting slightly brighter.

All the ministers entered the palace one after another to attend court.

Minister Ye was standing at the front in his undergarments, looking extremely embarrassed.

There is absolutely no shame in wearing any clothes on a daily basis.

But it happened that this was a court session and everyone was dressed properly, except for him, who stood out too much.

He kept his head down, praying in his heart that no one would recognize him.

The Prime Minister stood beside him and couldn't help asking:

"Minister Ye, what's going on with you?"

"Why are you here in your underwear?"

Minister Ye hesitated and couldn't utter a word for a while.

When the prime minister asked this question, the other officials around him also looked over, and for a while the whole hall was filled with whispers.

Minister Ye was completely embarrassed.

But there is no way at all.

"To be honest, Prime Minister, there was a thief in my house last night and all my things were stolen."

"Even his official uniform...was not left to me."

Not to mention the official hat.

When the Prime Minister heard this, he felt it sounded familiar, as if he had heard it before.

"The emperor is here."

The eunuch finished speaking.

The place immediately became quiet.

The emperor was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and sitting on the dragon throne. After looking around, he sat down.

"Do you have anything to report today?"

Minister Ye was afraid that other officials would start to make reports.

He stepped forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

The emperor looked at Minister Ye.

Seeing that he was wearing an undershirt, his expression changed slightly.

"Why is Minister Ye dressed like this today?"

"How can we play around in this palace?"

Minister Ye said in fear: "Your Majesty, it is not what you think. How dare I?"

"My house was robbed last night and everything in it was stolen. I had no choice but to wear this outfit."

"Your Majesty, I beg you to thoroughly investigate what happened last night."

"This thief is really powerful. He broke into my residence in the middle of the night and almost emptied the entire Shangshu Mansion."

"If we don't catch these thieves, won't there be endless troubles?"

The emperor frowned slightly.

Why do these words sound so familiar?

It seems that the former Shangshu also said something like this.

Could it be that Minister Ye also offended the people from the Black Flame Hall?

How come all the Shangshu got involved with the Black Flame Hall?

While he was still thinking.

Minister Jiang also walked out of the crowd tremblingly.

He was wrapped in a rag.

When the emperor saw it, he was shocked.

If it weren't for his face, the emperor would hardly have recognized him.

"Minister Jiang, what's wrong with you?"

"Your Majesty." Jiang Shoushou was in tears.

"There's a thief in my house too."

"He must have encountered the same group of thieves as Minister Ye. Minister Ye still has clothes to wear, but I didn't even let go of a chicken in my house."

"Your Majesty, please help me. I came to your majesty from the county town with great difficulty, but I have only been in office for a few days and someone has stolen my things."

"Wei Chen..."

"Woooooooo..."

Minister Jiang burst into tears and snot, and started crying right in the hall.

at this time.

The last one in line, Minister Chen, who was wearing ordinary clothes, walked in from the outer hall.

"Your Majesty, I was also robbed."

"The clothes I wear today are borrowed from Mr. Bai."

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for us humble officials."

Minister Chen fell to his knees with a thud.

Minister Ye watched the two of them cry, and he started crying too.

The crying child gets the milk.

Yes, that's it.

For a moment, the cries of the three people echoed in the hall.

The three men didn't notice that the officials in the venue were avoiding them like snakes and scorpions.

The emperor sat on it and his face twitched.

Why was it so lively outside the palace last night?

Is there something wrong with the treasury?

He hurriedly called the Imperial Guards and asked He Weichi to go to the warehouse to check.

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that the treasury was safe.

It seemed that the Black Flame Hall would not steal from the national treasury, so he felt relieved.

"My lords, I am so sorry."

"Your things were stolen, you should report it to the Dali Temple. Besides, why did the thief steal your things and not others?"

"Have you ever thought about the reason?"

Several people were stunned.

Your Majesty, are you not going to make the decision?

What does it mean to offend thieves?

They don’t even know who the thief is, how can they offend him?

"Your Majesty, for such a serious matter, you should be able to report it to the emperor, right?"

"Now, I am the only one left who can enter the mansion."

Minister Jiang was heartbroken.

If the emperor does not make the decision, how can the Dali Temple make the decision on such a big case?

"I can't make the decision."

"This is your family affair." The emperor waved his hand and cleared himself of the matter completely.

"Your Excellency should go back and interrogate them to see if they have offended anyone."

“Don’t even spare the ants.”

That was all he had to say.

I dare not say more.

Lord Ye thought about his own mansion and found it was not empty as Lord Jiang described.

Siyu's room, her aunt's room, and his study were indeed emptied.

However, not all of the rooms of Bitong, her wife, and other servants were stolen.

He suddenly remembered the note he saw in the study and was startled.

Could it be that this thief simply couldn't stand his doting on his concubine?

Suddenly realizing something, he shuddered.

"Your Majesty, my family and I have just arrived in the Imperial City. How could we have offended anyone?"

"Besides, my humble family is not wealthy..."

Lord Jiang felt a little surprised halfway through his speech.

There are so many things belonging to high-ranking officials in this imperial city, why did she steal from a newly appointed official like him?

Lord Chen didn't care about these things at all. He just wanted to get his things back.

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely not offended anyone!"

"When I was in Chang'an County, I was kind and polite to people. After I came to the Imperial City, I still did not change my original intention. Absolutely not."

The emperor said perfunctorily:

"Then go back and ask your daughter, wife, or concubine at home."

"In the end, you must have provoked the thieves."

A few people wanted to say something and opened their mouths.

The emperor interrupted immediately.

"Alright, this matter ends here. You have violated the rules in front of the palace, so I will forgive you this time and will not do it again next time!"

Not an example?

Now that all the money is gone, where can I find official uniforms?

The other officials were very familiar with this matter.

Many ministers knew about it.

Many ministers, including Minister Fang and Duke Anguo, have been in trouble since their mansions were robbed.

His official career went downhill all the time. He either made mistakes or had bad luck. In the end, his property was confiscated and some even died.

For a moment, everyone looked at them with sympathy, but no one dared to point out the matter.

After returning home, they should talk to their families and remind them not to bully others when they are outside.

Lord Jiang cried and cried until he fainted.

Lord Chen was not much better off. He was so angry that he couldn't even stand up.

Finally, the emperor sent eunuchs to send them back.

After the court session, Lord Ye walked anxiously towards the palace gate in his inner clothes.

I wish I could grow a pair of wings and fly back to my mansion.
