Chapter 163 The Minister of Revenue was injured in the waist by his own wife
Emperor Mingde saw that he had frightened those who needed to be frightened and that it had served as a warning to the monkeys, so he let everyone stand up.
After everyone stood up, no one dared to act rashly. They obediently reported everything that should be reported and reported everything that should be reported.
Xie Chuyue: [Tong, you ask too many questions. Do you want to hear some gossip? ]
Xie Chuyue quickly diverted the system's attention. She did many things behind the system's back, so it was normal that the system didn't know.
When the civil and military officials heard the gossip, they trembled all over. They were excited, happy, and afraid. All kinds of emotions came to their mind in an instant, and their faces showed various wonderful expressions.
During the year that the little troublemaker was away, they almost forgot about the past when their secrets were exposed.
Emperor Mingde: Very good, very good. His court should be lively again. This is also good. He is really fed up with this dull year. It is good to have Yue'er in the court.
Xie Yunqing adjusted his sleeves and stood straighter.
Xie Yunshen also became very alert and prepared to listen to the gossip!
In fact, he rarely attended court that year, and he avoided it whenever possible. But after his little sister came back, he attended court every day.
He knew that as long as his little yellow sister was there, the morning court would be very lively, so he would come to join in the fun even if he didn't like it.
Only Xie Yunqi had a blank expression when he heard the gossip.
System: [Gossip? I haven't heard gossip for a long time, host, please tell me.]
Xie Chuyue: [Commander Lu knows, right? He worked diligently and climbed up to the position of Commander-in-Chief step by step. He was originally a villager.
Some time ago, those excellent relatives from their village came to the capital under the pretext of visiting him. Admiral Lu was a kind and honest man, and he warmly entertained all the relatives.
But these relatives not only ate the food, but also took away the pots and pans from Lieutenant General Lu's house before leaving. This made Mrs. Lu very angry, but she could do nothing about it. In the end, she fainted from anger. 】
System: [Tsk tsk tsk, this is too much, these relatives are really shameless. Every family has top-notch relatives, and there are especially many in the poor family. ]
The minor officials around Brigadier General Lu all looked at him with sympathy.
But Lieutenant General Lu just blushed, but didn't react. Those relatives insisted on taking it. What could he do? Stop them? Stopping them would make him look stingy. He would also say that he was an official and couldn't bear to give up such a small thing. But if he didn't stop them, they took a lot of things, which was another huge expense.
The officials in the front row also felt a little sympathetic towards this Brigadier General Lu. Such a relative with no sense of boundaries was not desirable. This Brigadier General Lu was a commoner before and did not understand these things. It seemed that they would have to teach this Brigadier General Lu after leaving the court.
Emperor Mingde was stunned. Did the people under his rule live such a hard life? Even pots and pans had to be stolen?
It seems that he is still not doing a good job as an emperor.
Xie Chuyue: [In fact, Lieutenant General Lu is also quite poor. His salary is not enough to cover his family's expenses. But what can we do? Who told us that Nanyue is so poor? ]
When the civil and military officials heard Xie Chuyue talk about poverty, they immediately lowered their heads. Poverty had nothing to do with them. They didn't want to be robbed again. If this happened once a year, would they still be alive?
Xie Yunshen frowned. All right, he was so kind-hearted that he would go to comfort Lieutenant General Lu after the court session and provide some relief if he was able.
The prince and Xie Yunqing also looked at Xie Yunshen at the same time, and it seemed that they had to find a way to get some money from this kid.
Someone was thinking about being a good guy, but he didn't know that his two royal brothers were already counting his money.
System: [Your father is really poor, and your fourth brother is really rich. These old foxes are unwilling to pay.]
Xie Chuyue: [Alas, we don’t need to worry about this. If it really comes to that, the brothers will take action, so I’d better stop worrying about it. Alas, every family has its own problems!] At the end, Xie Chuyue still sighed.
Everyone mourned for Admiral Lu in their hearts for a few seconds. It was pitiful. What could they do when they met such a bad relative? They could only swallow their anger.
When everyone thought that the court was about to end, a voice came, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
The Minister of Revenue walked to the center of the hall with his back straight, and spoke without any greeting.
All the civil and military officials had the same thought in their minds: this Minister of Revenue really didn't take the Emperor seriously. How could he even forget to perform etiquette in front of so many people in the court?
Or does he just not want to salute at all?
Emperor Mingde also saw it and frowned.
System: [Host, what is your uncle doing? He didn't seem to salute just now. If he has something to do, shouldn't he salute with his fists and then say what he wants to report? ]
Xie Chuyue also secretly glanced at his uncle, and then explained to the system: [Hey, what are you thinking about? Uncle can't bend his waist. Speaking of this, it's very funny. ]
Everyone: This Minister of Revenue doesn't perform rituals. Is there some other hidden reason?
When they were puzzled, Xie Chuyue's smiling voice came: [Hahahahaha, last night uncle snored and aunt reminded him many times. Every time he responded well, and when he fell asleep, he still snored. Finally, aunt couldn't stand it anymore and kicked uncle off the bed. Uncle broke his waist.]
Civil and military officials pursed their lips, tried to hold back their laughter, and looked up to the sky or the ground.
Emperor Mingde raised his hand to hide the smile on his lips.
Xie Yunqi's mouth twitched. His aunt was quite tough. But his uncle deserved it.
Xie Yunshen: What terrible women! It turned out to be right not to get married. Otherwise, a delicate beauty like him might be beaten to death by these vicious women one day, and no one would know.
Xie Yunqing: Fortunately, I don’t snore. Ugh, that’s not right. Even if I snore, so what? I’m not married yet and don’t have a wife, so there’s no chance of me being kicked off the bed.
Old Master Su blushed and lowered his head. What could he do if his daughter-in-law was too tough? Being tough was good, as it could help manage the family, but it would just be a bit of a waste for his son.
It doesn’t matter. He has a grandson now, so it doesn’t matter if his son is useless.
The Minister of Revenue, who was being discussed by everyone, wanted to find a hole to hide in. He was the uncle of this little girl, so how could she not distinguish between friend and foe when gossiping? If such a thing was said, how could he, as an uncle, survive in the court in the future?
System: [Hahahahaha, what a poor uncle! Snoring is not something that humans can control. Isn't your uncle being wronged? ]
Xie Chuyue: [Actually, my uncle often snores, and my aunt often reminds me. Yesterday, my aunt was tired during the day, and wanted to have a good sleep at night, but the noise was so loud that she couldn't sleep, so she kicked my uncle down. I guess he was sleeping, and she didn't control the strength well, and he broke his waist after the kick. He was tossing and turning in the Grand Tutor's Mansion until late at night.]
