Chapter 2597 - 2597 What Did the Brat Do?

2597 What Did the Brat Do?
Everybody looked at this Imperial Censor Wang in bewilderment.
This fogey was an extreme stickler for the rules. He disliked it the most when people challenged law and ethical code.
Logically speaking, the Eastern Palace was truly being excessive in its methods…
Who would freakin’ send people to the person’s front door before morning court to shout ‘collecting debt by imperial decree’ while clanging the gong!
The emperor silently twitched his mouth. There was no noticeable change of expression on his face.
However, Eunuch Hu standing to the side knew the emperor too well. He could detect even the most minute change in expression.
Eunuch Hu knew that the emperor must be breaking down on the inside.
Four to five old imperial censors subsequently walked out. They cupped their hands while declaring righteously to the emperor, “This subject concurs.”
“Same here!”
“It is absolutely justified for the Eastern Palace to collect debt.”
“Same here!”
“There is nothing wrong to say that they are collecting debt by imperial decree.”
“It is wrong of the Vassal King of Jianping to make such a big deal out of nothing!”
Minister Gao jerked his mouth. He looked at those old imperial censors like they were monsters.
These imperial censors normally thought themselves to be high and pure. They looked down on everyone and simply wouldn’t “associate with evil, but this time… Why were they taking the Eastern Palace’s side so resolutely?
It was truly abnormal.
Logically speaking, it had not been long since the crown prince returned. The emperor was having him first get familiar with state affairs in the Eastern Palace. The crown prince was not yet attending morning court.
The crown prince also rarely left the Eastern Palace. When did he get on such good terms with these old imperial censors?
The Vassal King of Jianping glowered at those old geezers and cursed.
In his view, these old geezers must have been scared out of their wits from the young couple’s actions in the imperial study yesterday. That was why they were so adamantly standing on the Eastern Palace’s side today.
These old sons of b*tches were simply unreasonable and out of their minds.
The Vassal King of Jianping was incredibly angry. He wanted to rush up to the emperor and wail some more, but then the emperor waved his hand at him. “Alright, go back early today and prepare the compensation. You should pay the Eastern Palace asap to avoid the crown prince consort sending people bright and early every morning to ask for it!”
Was this brother related to him by blood?
Absolutely not!
After morning court was adjourned, the emperor returned to his Empyreal Hall with a dour expression. He beckoned toward empty space.
A person in black appeared beside him like a phantom. He bowed and said respectfully, “What instructions does Your Majesty have?”
“Go investigate what exactly that brat went to do last night?”
In less than an hour, a concise record of events was presented to the emperor.
Sure enough, that brat ran to chat with the imperial censors in the middle of the night last night.
The emperor was simply angered to laughter.
The brat had truly covered his bases. He anticipated the Vassal King of Jianping making such a scene today, so he first pulled the imperial censors over to his side.
Ha ha!
The emperor didn’t know whether he should laugh or be angry. However, a smile inexplicably remained on his lips.
On the other end, the Kang Prince, who had similarly told his hidden guards to investigate the imperial censors’ estates, couldn’t resist smacking his desk and roaring with laughter.
Jianping had better not go against those two brats from the Eastern Palace with his brains.
They would definitely wipe the floor with him.
The next day, the Vassal King of Jianping’s Estate had collected a third of the compensation. They first delivered this to the Eastern Palace and wrote a guarantee to deliver the remainder in seven days.
Only then did Her Highness the Crown Prince Consort redirect the ‘collecting debt by imperial decree’ team to the Shi Clan, the Gu Clan, and the Long Clan for their compensation.
