Chapter 729: So You're This Kind of New Marquis?!
andmother her pillar of support, and Master Ye her guardian angel.Her secret, Young Master Ye knew the most about, but he never asked a word.This complete trust and protection freed her from anxiety a...As soon as the voice fell, the guards waiting outside the main hall escorted three young masters into the hall.
They were caught in their beds, naturally disheveled and with messy hair.
But that's not even the worst part, it's their expressions right now that could scare you to death.
Each person was crying, their faces covered in snot and tears. Their pain was like that of a demon.
The guards threw them to the ground, and they began rolling around wildly, their eyes vacant and mouths babbling incessantly.
"Give me the elixir of immortality! I need it! Just one sip, just one sip!"
"Woooo, please, give me a bite! Help me, I'm dying!"
Among the ranks of officials, these three young masters' fathers and brothers had turned pale with worry.
They were unsure whether they were shocked by the first meeting, or angered that their family's secrets had been exposed.
But the other officials disappeared without a trace, staying far away from them.
The Marquis of Xiting glanced at them, stepped on the back of a young nobleman, and said, "I'll give you elixir for immortality, but tell me, what secret does your grandfather have"
“Give it to me, give it to me!” The young master went crazy, hugging the Marquis of Xinting’s other leg and stammering, “My grandfather raised a pretty boy in the small courtyard in the south of the city, only sixteen years old! Oh, oh, please just let me have a puff! I already said, just give me a puff!”
Everyone's faces turned strange.
But this young master's grandfather, a usually rigid old man who always talked about etiquette and rules, was now blushing like a monkey's butt!
At this time, another guard brought a young servant in from outside.
The little servant fetched a long smoking pipe and a small lampstand, trembling hands, dug out a bit of frangipani ointment from the jade box, and started to soften it...
The young men under Marquis Xin's feet, and two others, seemed like zombies who had seen blood, and rushed forward frantically.
Unfortunately, the guards held them tightly.
Unable to struggle, they roared like beasts.
"My grandfather died, oh no, I don't know what secrets he had! Please, give me a drag, just one!" Another young master was practically spitting out his eyeballs. He wanted to pull his grandfather out of the coffin just to ask him what secrets he held, desperate for a puff of that life-saving smoke!
Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he shouted loudly, "That's right, my father... My father has a secret! My father and my second aunt had a private meeting at the ancestral hall! They only came out an hour later!"
The last young master had two companions who set an example, as if they had found the code to survival, and they started shouting too.
But his father was quick-eyed and fast, he rushed out, pounced forward, and fiercely covered his son's mouth...
Everyone, including the Emperor, was dumbfounded.
Okay, the promised performance critique site turned into a gossip session...
The old censor secretly kept a courtesan, a pear tree suppressing the peony!
The middle-aged Minister of Rites, having a private meeting with his sister-in-law in the ancestral hall, delayed for an hour...
Even Xin Ting Hou fell silent.
He intended to have this kid reveal the truth about his grandfather's bribery, how did things turn out so strangely
What went wrong!
Li Laoer and Mr. Wen looked at each other across the distance, their eyes filled with astonishment.
The Marquess should still be the Marquess, but when was he replaced with a gossipy core!
In the main hall, an eerie silence hung in the air.
Besides three young men running around frantically under the flickering lights, no one else dared to speak, nor did they know what to say.
It was the emperor who finally spoke, setting things straight.
"My Lords, have you witnessed the power of this Fusheng Paste It can strip a person of all shame and fear."
"To take a puff of this so-called smoke, these people will sell anything, including their ancestors, their teachers, and even Tianwu! "
If the general guarding the border were controlled by this Lotus Cream, he would open the gates himself and allow foreign invaders to overrun the country.
If officials from the Ministry of Personnel are controlled by Rouge Powder, would appointing officials also have to follow someone else's orders
If the entire court, including scholars, officials, noble families, and new graduates, were all controlled, then Tianwu would no longer be Tianwu, but simply a plaything manipulated by the Fu Rong膏!
And as for the noble ladies, once they become addicted to the Fusheng Paste, they are just like these fools on the ground, what honor can they claim
For the sake of "Fu Rong Gao," perhaps even a courtesan from the most prestigious brothel wouldn't be as desirable!
With every word he uttered, the heads of civil and military officials bowed lower, and the fear in their hearts deepened.
Although there was a small mishap in the middle, they did indeed learn about the dangers of Fuhong Paste!
It was truly unexpectedly vicious and powerful!
At this time, the little maid had already boiled the smoke bubbles and placed them in the smoking pot, continuing to roast gently over the fire.
And several guards also loosened their grip on the young master.
The usually suave and handsome young masters, were now like rabid dogs, frenziedly lunging at the cigarette holder.
But the three people, there was only one cigarette holder, and each wanted to take the first puff.
Then, the three of them fought into a ball!
After all three had taken a mouthful, they lay comfortably on the ground, lost in their haze. By then, they were bruised and battered, with bloodstains all over their necks...
All the courtiers, gazing upon these three individuals, or rather, these three piles of rotting flesh, fell silent once more.
A rare and neutral official, knelt down first.
"Your Majesty, such a harmful object will truly corrupt the backbone of Tianwu. It must be eradicated completely!"
Then, Lao Chen's nephews and disciples also knelt down seven or eight.
All the civil and military officials looked at each other, their faces resolute as they knelt down together.
"Your Majesty, please issue an imperial decree to eradicate these evil beings root and stem, and punish them severely!"
The Emperor locked eyes with Marquis Xinting, a hint of joy finally gracing his face.
He knew that after this, regardless of whether he could completely remove the influence of Fusheng Paste, his prestige among the court officials would definitely increase!
Over time, neutral officials would gradually be subdued, and Tianwu's court would inevitably have that day...
In the world, there is only his voice!
All the civil and military officials, only one person was loyal to him!
Over thirty households were raided and captured, the Chang princess's mansion was ransacked, and at Yaochi, the ruins stood desolate, wisps of green smoke rising amidst broken walls. Officials hurriedly entered the palace!
Every single incident, every small detail, made the entire new city feel like a hair-triggered cat, on edge and unable to relax.
Even the street vendors have disappeared!
Friends and family, all familiar faces, gathered together, speculating about what had happened.
Behind a certain house, two sisters-in-law were drinking tea and chatting.
The sister-in-law asked, "What happened to the Chang Princess's mansion They were having a flower viewing party the other day, how come their house was raided"
The younger sister shook her head and replied, "I don't know either. Although I know the Emperor doesn't like the eldest princess, he shouldn't be that bad off. At least the third princess gets along very well with the eldest princess's granddaughter!"
Sister-in-law sighed, somewhat regretful.
"I also made my daughter Hui'er often associate with the granddaughter of Princess Chang because of this. If there is a chance, I would like her to befriend the Third Princess. In the future, even if it comes to marriage prospects, it will raise our status!"
"Your sister-in-law is so smart! I can't believe I didn't think of that!"
While the two were chatting animatedly, the young girl sitting on the side suddenly burst into tears.who made mistakes in the dark guard and were left alive by the Marquis, some were soldiers who didn't want to continue fighting on the battlefield, and some were retired people from the rivers and lak...
