Although Prince Rui was unwilling, he wasn't someone who didn't listen to advice. Two days later, he was very glad that he listened.
Le Chengdi directly threw out the evidence in the imperial court. This time, he didn't fly into a rage. However, from his gloomy face, it was obvious that he was very, very angry. Sometimes, it was better to vent one's anger than not to discover it, whether it was directed at the person who was angered or the person who was angry.
Le Chengdi ordered his men to remove the black veil and official robes of two people. However, this wasn't enough. Then, they were directly sent to the northwest where they needed manpower. Moreover, their descendants were forbidden from entering the imperial court. Those who were already in the imperial court were also stripped of their black veils.
At the beginning, they expected to lose their official position at most. Prince Rui also promised that they would be able to return soon. However, Le Chengdi didn't show any mercy. Since he had personally issued the imperial edict, even if Prince Rui ascended the throne in the future, he couldn't go against his father's will. In this way, the sacrifices they made wouldn't be for the sake of greater benefits. Instead, it was purely for the sake of losing their lives. Not only did they lose their lives, but they also implicated their families and descendants. Then, the situation that they worked so hard to build up would completely collapse in an instant.
These two people stood at the front of the imperial court. It was obvious that their official positions weren't low. At this moment, they finally knew fear. They kowtowed and begged for mercy. One of them even said that he was innocent.
Le Chengdi couldn't be bothered to listen to their nonsense. He directly ordered the imperial guards to drag them out.
During this process, Prince Rui's back was drenched in sweat. He was afraid that he would be exposed. However, he didn't dare to raise his head or make any strange movements. After all, if he didn't do anything, he could still say that he was innocent. If he jumped out and said that he was the one who exposed himself, it would be a confession without being pressed. Last time, because of the grain incident in the northwest, he was grounded. Because of the birth of his "son", he was released. This time, if he was caught in this incident, then it wouldn't be as simple as just being added to the production team. After he was dragged out, Prince Rui clearly heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Prince Rui didn't know that he had breathed a sigh of relief too early. He didn't know that because he wanted to act as if this matter had nothing to do with him, and perhaps because he was afraid, he had gone a bit too far. Everyone else was whispering to each other, but he was the only one who was too quiet. Wouldn't that expose him again? So much so that Le Chengdi saw it all.
This was a classic example of a cover-up...
Prince Rui used to be the son that Le Chengdi thought the most highly of, but he was disappointed time and time again. Le Chengdi now felt that this son was really like his mother, used to putting on an act in front of him. So much so that he was deceived by this mother and son for so many years. If it wasn't for the fact that he was his son, he would have killed him long ago.
Minister Su of the Board of Rites discreetly looked at Prince Rui, then looked at Le Chengdi. He frowned slightly and sighed helplessly in his heart. In his opinion, Prince Rui's temperament was actually not bad, but in the end, he was facing his own father, and the monarch at that. He had a natural fear, and with two identities, this fear was doubled. Thus, once the Emperor got angry, he couldn't control his emotions. In this aspect, he was far worse than Prince Jin.
"Prince Rui … …"
Prince Rui was suddenly called out by Le Chengdi and was clearly startled. He was clearly guilty and afraid. "Er … … this subject is here." Prince Rui tried his best to maintain his composure and didn't let himself stutter.
Le Chengdi knew very well about the real mastermind behind the scenes. Just two court officials, because the Minister of the Board of Rites offended them unintentionally, they would gamble their future and do this kind of stupid thing? With the current situation, it was obvious who was behind it. There were only a few people. If the tail was swept clean, showing cowardice was the same as being exposed.
Le Chengdi unceremoniously reprimanded Prince Rui. He was becoming more and more mediocre and incompetent, making people disappointed.
For Prince Rui, this was definitely the most unbearable thing. However, after being scolded as "trash" last time, his ability to accept this inexplicably increased a lot. After being scolded by Le Chengdi, he calmed down instead. When Le Chengdi finished scolding, he knelt down and asked for forgiveness.
Le Chengdi stared at this son, his face expressionless, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry. After a moment of silence, he waved his hand, "Court is dismissed."
Luo Peishan and the others were completely unaffected. They did what they should do.
As for the aftermath of this cheating case, it was quickly and cleanly dealt with. No one had the time to care about the mood of those troublemakers.
Jiang Wanli quickly came out of the Blackguard's prison. At this time, he naturally had to go back first to get rid of the bad luck and calm down.
There were still many people paying attention to him, but seeing that he was in good spirits and the way he walked was still calm, it seemed that he didn't suffer much in the Blackguard's prison. Sure enough, Sheng was wise and had long seen that something was wrong.
Jiang Wanli was taken back by a servant in a carriage. It was a small house that he and Luo Peisong used to live in. However, it was believed that soon, Jiang Wanli's family would be in shock, and Luo Peisong could also return to the Luo family.
Seeing his little disciple approach, Luo Peisong glanced at him and silently looked away.
"Teacher, I just came out of prison. Didn't you have someone prepare a brazier?"
"Look at your rosy face. You've put on a lot of weight. Are you sure you need to get rid of the bad luck?" Luo Peisong didn't hold back.
Jiang Wanli smiled. He was indeed a little fat, but people who weren't familiar with him shouldn't be able to see it. He knew that his teacher had a strange temper, so it was best to stop before going too far.
