Chapter 414: The Manchu-Han Family
Chapter 414: The Manchu-Han Family
The ministers followed suit and made a fuss.
"You can't sue me."
"You can't sue me."
The Emperor threw his folding fan away and said, "Stop arguing and let him sue. As the ruler of a country, I am a role model for the people. If I take the lead in infidelity and then abandonment, how can I gain the trust of the people?"
He Shen burst into tears and said, "Your Majesty, you cannot be fooled by Mo Li."
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Mo Li, since you have accused me, what sentence will you give me?"
"The sentence should be..." Mo Li looked at He Shen and said, "Hey, Lord He, what do you think the sentence should be?"
He Shen cried and said, "My emperor is innocent."
The ministers followed suit and made a fuss.
"Yes, my emperor is innocent."
"My emperor is innocent."
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "I really want to marry Xiumei, but the whole court is against it. What can I do?"
Mo Li said: "Oh, the entire court is full of civil and military officials..."
Thinking of something, he looked at someone and said, "Hey, Your Highness, I heard that you were the leader of the group that knelt down to make a petition that day."
The prince said, "I will defend the rules of the Great Xuan Imperial Family to the death." He clasped his fists.
Mo Li said, "Good Prince, you are truly a good descendant of the late emperor." He gave a thumbs up.
"Hahahaha... Hey, Your Majesty, is Chunlan okay?"
"Chunlan?"
"Hey Qiuju, how are you?"
"It's all good, it's all good."
"Ah hehehe... The prince has taken in two new concubines. One is called Chunlan, and the other is called Qiuju. Both are Han women. Hey, prince, why aren't you afraid of violating the rules of the Great Xuan Imperial Family?"
Mo Li said with a smile.
"I am a prince. The rules of the late emperor only limit the emperor to marrying Han women." The prince said with a matter-of-fact expression.
Mo Li said, "Then I don't know. Who is more important, the Emperor or the Prince?"
The prince cupped his hands and said, "Of course the emperor is older."
Mo Li said, "The Emperor is great. If the prince can do something, why can't the Emperor do it? What's going on?"
At this moment, someone rushed over and Mo Li quickly dodged. The person said, "Mo Li, how dare you say anything about the affairs of the Great Xuan Imperial Family?"
Mo Li said, "Lord Beile, I've finally been waiting for you to speak. May I ask what you may have to say?"
The prince said, "We oppose the emperor marrying Xiumei, not because she is a Han woman. But because she comes from a humble background and has a low status. How can she be a match for the true dragon emperor?" He bowed.
He Shen hummed in satisfaction and said, "Your Highness, what you said makes sense."
Mo Li looked at him, then at Prince Beile, and said, "Hey, Prince Beile, please pay your respects to the young wife on my behalf first."
He bowed and continued, "Lord Beile will marry a concubine first. I heard she is a popular girl in the Eight Great Hutongs."
The prince's face turned very ugly.
Mo Li continued, "Hey, Lord Beile, aren't you afraid that she's of low birth?"
The ministers couldn't help laughing, and everyone in the room was in a good mood.
Mo Li said: "Hey, my fellow ministers, the Manchus and the Han are one family is not just an empty talk to you. You are the ones who take concubines, and the ones who take second wives. The emperor wants to take you as an example, so he decided to advance and retreat with you. Am I right, Your Majesty?" He went around in a circle.
Emperor Gai Zhang stared at Mo Li without saying a word.
He Shen said seriously, "Your Majesty, you must not listen to Mo Li's evil words and mislead the people."
"Ahahahaha... Mo Li, my dear ministers are kneeling to advise me out of loyalty. I will not blame them."
Emperor Gai Zhang smiled first, then spoke seriously.
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty is wise."
