I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 242: Front Stick 1 Back Stick 2

Emperor Hongde stopped Empress Luan Xiying and said, "Hey, don't panic! Listen to me first."

The queen turned and looked at Emperor Hongde.

"Don't worry!" Emperor Hong De said, "Think about it, Rongyue is now living with the old lady and two ladies of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion in the Banshan Manor. Can she be short of flowers now?

Even if she returned to Beijing, would Duke Anguo let his granddaughter go without money?

Besides, there are still a few shops and farms!

Also, you are busy delivering things now...where are you planning to deliver them to?

Send it to Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion?

Send to Anguogong Mansion?

Or send it to Mid-Levels Manor?

Giving me a Banshan Manor... is not necessary at all.

Rongyue is now with her grandmother and aunt, so she doesn't need it at all;

Send it to the Anguo Mansion?

Isn't that unnecessary? Rongyue isn't there. "

Emperor Hongde looked at the Queen and said with a smile, "Could it be that... you want to send the goodies and banknotes to the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion?

Isn't that just putting fish into a cat's mouth?"

After hearing this, the Queen glared at Emperor Hongde and asked, "Why would I send these things to Marquis Qinxing's Mansion?

Even if I were to throw the banknotes into the moat, I would never send them to the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion!

Send it to Marquis Qinxing's mansion to help that scumbag Marquis Qinxing and that Yin family member out of trouble?

Humph! Your Majesty, you might as well just say it... I am a fool!"

Emperor Hongde quickly smiled and said, "Not stupid, not stupid. My queen is very smart! How could she be stupid?

My queen is a good mother-in-law who loves her future daughter-in-law!"

The queen glanced at Emperor Hongde, then leaned back on the couch again, with a hint of gloating on her face, and said with a smile: "What do you think, how will the Marquis Qinxing's mansion live in the future?"

"Difficult!" Emperor Hong De shook his head and curled his lips, "Although we have never lived without a penny, we can imagine it!

Just based on Leng Xian's character, the things he had done, and the hatred he suffered from the Anguo Mansion, it was destined that no one would lend him a helping hand or provide him with timely assistance at this time!

Besides, he doesn't deserve it!

You said, if the owner of a marquis's mansion cannot afford even a tael of silver, how should the servants in the mansion view their master?

There are at least dozens of people in his house, if not a hundred.

There is a well for drinking water.

But what will feed so many mouths?

Oh, by the way, Yu Feng said that when he came out of Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion, he saw a lot of shop owners and clerks blocking the entrance of the Mansion, saying that they were going to settle old debts.

Haha! I don’t know where these shops heard about the theft at Marquis Qinxing’s mansion, but they are quite well-informed!

As a result, Qinxing Hou Leng Xian became even more anxious and worried! "

The Queen also laughed when she heard this. "Marquis Qinxing has enjoyed Baozhen's dowry for so many years and has lived a comfortable life to his heart's content. It's time for him to enjoy a different kind of life!"

“That’s true.

However, Leng Xian is indeed quite mean in doing things!

I heard that Leng Xian asked the servants in the mansion to announce to the public that something happened in the Marquis' Mansion and he has sent someone to pick up the eldest lady.

When the young lady comes back, the problem will be solved naturally!"

"What?" The Queen was shocked and angry, "That Leng Xian is so shameless!

Something happened in the Marquis of Qinxing's mansion, but he, as the Marquis, did not step forward to solve it, but pushed the matter onto a little girl. How shameless and vicious! "

Emperor Hongde nodded, "If I didn't want to give Fu Baozhen and Rongyue some dignity, just based on Leng Xian... I would have demoted him to a commoner long ago!"

“That Leng Xian, he can still bear the title of Marquis Qinxing, he should thank Baozhen and Rongyue!

Humph! However, this incomprehensible thing is still there, making mischief and jumping around.

Your Majesty, you have to think of a way to deal with Leng Xian. Even if you can't beat him completely for the time being, you can't let him have it too easy!"

Emperor Hongde nodded, "I originally thought so.

It’s just…” Emperor Hongde sighed with regret: “Alas! Leng Xian missed the morning court again today and didn’t ask for leave.

I was thinking... of adding more crime to his crime, and more punishment to his punishment!

But now... something like this has happened in the Marquis Qinxing's mansion, and it's hard for me to take action."

The Queen looked at Emperor Hongde and listened to what he said.

Emperor Hongde took a sip of tea and continued, “Just think about it, I have already fined him three months’ salary and ten strokes of the cane;

Now, the mansion of Marquis Qinxing was completely robbed and he was penniless. After that, he had no salary for three months.

If I continue to deduct his salary, people will accuse me of being unkind!"

"Oh, Your Majesty, just because you're afraid of being accused of being unkind, will you let him go this time?" The Queen pouted and said dissatisfiedly.

"Of course not!"

Emperor Hongde shook his head, looked at Yu Feng who was serving beside him, and ordered: "Draft an edict."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Yu Feng took two steps forward and bowed to listen.

"Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian missed the court again and did not ask for leave. He has made the same mistake over and over again and should be severely punished.

He should have been fined half a year's salary and given twenty strokes of the cane.

But considering that his mansion was robbed and the incident happened suddenly, the marquis's mansion fell into trouble.

Qinxing Marquis Leng Xian was still ill, so his missed court session was understandable and had its reasons.

However, the imperial laws are so majestic that they cannot be violated lightly;

Moreover, he has repeatedly missed court sessions due to family matters. This trend must not be allowed to continue!

Therefore, the half-year salary deduction can be exempted, and only twenty strokes of the cane are given to blame for the mistake and to serve as a warning to others!

Oh, I will give you ten strokes of the cane in front and twenty strokes in the back. You can receive them after Marquis Qinxing recovers and returns to court."

Emperor Hongde looked at Yu Feng and asked, "Did you remember this?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I have made note of it!" Yu Feng replied with a bow.

"Just make a note of it. Send someone to pass on the order now!"

"Yes, I'll go right away!" Yu Feng obeyed the order and went out.
