Chapter 40 The Gao Family, a Mentally Ill Family
The old emperor almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Is he that kind of person?
Is that him?
The old emperor is preparing to strike first!
"Shen Zhiyi, is it the same for you to come here?"
What's the same?
Shen Zhiyi's eyes widened in surprise.
[Slander! This is slander! I'm just here to join the fun; I might not even get to see the live version.]
[Hey? Why are there so many familiar faces behind those trees?]
The ministers hiding behind the woods trembled.
They'd better get out of here quickly, otherwise Shen Zhiyi will definitely dig out why they came here.
But who should go out first?
This is a good question.
In the end, everyone unanimously decided to throw out Chen, the Assistant Minister of Rites, who had just offended the old emperor.
Chen, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, stumbled and couldn't help but curse the immoral person behind him in his heart.
[Oh my, is this Chen the real deal?]
Then, high-ranking officials from the three provinces came out.
Shen Zhiyi was stunned.
[No way, the entire court has this peculiar habit? The whole army is wiped out.]
No, no, this is called "if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too," it's all the old emperor's fault.
The old emperor gritted his teeth fiercely.
It's clearly all the Minister of Personnel's fault.
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel wiped the cold sweat from his face, wishing he could faint on the spot.
"Haha, what a coincidence to see you all here."
Chen, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, felt like he wanted to die.
As the officials exchanged pleasantries, Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but force a smile.
I'm feeling restless; I feel like a lazy sheep who accidentally fell into a wolf pack.
The old emperor's smile was forced and insincere.
Want to go?
None of the doors!
"I didn't expect that after giving you guys a day off, you all would come here one by one."
"Haha, yeah, yeah."
The old emperor nodded: "In that case, let's go in together."
The old emperor strode forward, preparing to walk at the front, but then remembered something and moved the newly appointed Minister of Personnel to the front.
Zhuangzi's doorman clearly recognized the newly appointed Minister of Personnel and came running over very attentively.
The Minister of Personnel is a frequent visitor.
After the doorman finished his attentive service, he walked towards the direction of the Vice Minister.
"Master Lin, it's been a while since you've been here. We recently got a new batch of wolfhounds; they're fierce enough to satisfy you."
Unbelievable!
Shen Zhiyi secretly marveled, while the others stared in disbelief.
The Vice Minister's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
If you can't speak, just shut up.
【Holy shit! 】
Everyone shuddered.
The living Yama is about to announce the death list again!
This vice minister is a complete freak!
[Minister of Personnel, I misunderstood you. Your own perversion is at least directed at yourself, but this Vice Minister of the Chancellery is truly something else. No wonder he needs a fierce, male wolfhound.]
[This guy enjoys watching his concubine being raped by wolfhounds, ahhhh, what a beast! No, he's even worse than a beast!]
[When the Minister of Personnel comes here, it's like carrying out a dead pig; when the Vice Minister of the Chancellery comes here, it's like carrying out a dead person.]
You rich and powerful people are disgusting.
Other innocent people who were indiscriminately shot at: ...
The old emperor snorted coldly, and everyone else trembled.
He stepped right in.
The doorman instinctively tried to stop him.
In the end, he was kicked away by Chen, the Assistant Minister of Rites.
The estate was very large, and guests would go directly to their usual rooms after arriving.
After all, a large forest needs all kinds of birds, but this species is still rare.
Therefore, Zhuangzi did not receive many guests, but they were all either rich or noble.
Most were wealthy businessmen, with a small number of officials, the highest-ranking of whom was...
[Hey, I knew it! For something like this to persist, besides having buyers and sellers, there also needs to be some kind of protection...]
All I can say is, it's true what they say, even among the nine sons of a dragon, each one is different; old emperor, your sons are all more eccentric than the last.
The old emperor, who was on his inspection tour, suddenly trembled.
How did this get dragged into him?
The Eighth Prince, also known as Prince Rui, works in the Ministry of Justice; no wonder he can wield so much power.
Upon hearing the words "Ministry of Justice," the Minister of Justice trembled and almost knelt down.
No, how did this get involved with him?
Hey, Prince Rui is right there in the backyard right now. This guy... likes...
Shen Zhiyi paused for a moment, a pause that seemed to last a long time.
The others couldn't help but look in her direction.
A broken face and an abruptly stopped smile aroused everyone's curiosity.
What does Prince Rui like?
Shen Zhiyi, hurry up!
The newly appointed Minister of Personnel likes pigs, and the Vice Minister of the Chancellery likes fierce dogs, so what about Prince Rui?
What does he like? Shen Zhiyi, tell me quickly!
【Ugh, I'm so angry! Monkeys are so cute, how could you treat them like that?!】
Everyone was stunned.
monkey?
The official from Shuzhou frowned as he thought of the monkeys on Mount Emei.
What's so cute about that mischievous monkey?
Shen Zhiyi's aesthetic sense needs improvement!
[Such an adorable golden monkey! Prince Rui, you beast, how could you do such a thing!]
what!
Golden monkey!
How could the adorable golden monkey, Rui Wang, bear to do such a thing!
The old emperor felt as if his spine was being stabbed by ten thousand men.
"cough."
[Is this old emperor out of his mind? Cough cough cough, cough again. Can't he reflect on himself? He's had this weird gene for so many years. Sometimes he should look for the reasons within himself.]
[Hey, is the old emperor alright?]
The old emperor's unpleasant mood was easily cured by Shen Zhiyi's words.
[But so what? After all these years, have the quality of the concubines in the harem improved? Have they undergone premarital checkups? Don't just throw anyone into the harem. Prince Rui's birth mother is Consort Gao, whose father is the Duke of Yong, and the entire Duke of Yong's lineage is insane.]
Upon hearing this, many ministers present nodded vigorously.
Yeah, yeah, they really are a bunch of lunatics!
[This Consort Gao is the epitome of madness; her son is also a madman.]
The Minister of Justice wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.
They were so eager to file a complaint with the old emperor on the spot.
Looking at the complicated Gao family, Shen Zhiyi didn't know where to begin.
To fully understand this story, we need to start with Consort Gao's father's father.
Old Emperor: Why don't you just say "Grandpa" and that'll be fine?
Long, long ago...
Everyone: It's bird language, we can't understand it.
[The father of Consort Gao's father committed an unforgivable crime against Consort Gao's father, resulting in a genetic defect in the descendants of the Gao family, causing one of them to be mentally ill.]
[For example, Consort Gao's father suffered from bipolar disorder and had a violent temper. No wonder he was called Duke Yongguo. The old emperor mistook his violent temper for bravery. Hilarious! Hahahaha.]
The old emperor: ……
As for Consort Gao, she's practically bipolar disorder; one minute she's irritable, the next she's depressed, hahaha. The old emperor initially favored her for a while because of her face, but later he couldn't stand it anymore.
The old emperor almost burst into tears on the spot. Yes, yes.
He doesn't dare tell anyone about the hardships he went through back then.
Hey, wait...
Shen Zhiyi, you're not allowed to look!
