Chapter 400: Emperor Gai Zhang finally admits that he is Xiumei's man
Mo Li said calmly: "Master He, why not?"
"Because..." He Shen thought for a moment and said, "Because the child's father cannot marry the child's mother."
When Emperor Gai Zhang heard this, he frowned and thought that this was going to be very difficult.
Mo Li said, "This is strange. If the child's father can't marry the child's mother, then who will give the child a legitimate status? Who will give Xiumei justice?"
Du Xiaoyue looked at him and said, "Brother Li, what you said sounds like a human being."
Heshen said angrily, "You clearly know who the father of the child is, yet you still dare to be so presumptuous. You." He wished he could swallow Mo Li in one gulp.
Mo Li said, "Because now it has come to the critical moment of Xiumei's life and death. If I don't give Xiumei a name, then the child in her belly will be born."
Du Xiaoyue looked at him with pity and said, "Then he would become a wild child." Xiumei lowered her head when she heard that.
He Shen said nervously, "Your Majesty, this matter must be considered carefully. I suggest that we withdraw from the court immediately."
Emperor Gai Zhang nodded and said, "Let's take a long-term view. I'll follow what you said and take a long-term view."
Mo Li pulled He Shen away and said, "Your Majesty, you can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever. Give Xiumei a name, and she can live a clean life."
Emperor Gai Zhang said angrily, "Mo Li, don't push me too far."
Xiumei said, "Your Majesty, Xiumei is not afraid of rumors. Please withdraw from the court."
Mo Li said, “Your Majesty, please announce that Xiumei’s man is willing to marry her.”
He Shen panicked and said, "Mo Li, you...you shut up right there."
Mo Li said loudly: "Your Majesty, please announce it."
Xiumei said loudly: "Your Majesty, please withdraw from the court."
Du Xiaoyue immediately understood and said, "So the Emperor knows who that bastard is. Your Majesty, please tell me now, or Xiumei will be humiliated for the rest of her life."
He Shen was extremely nervous and panicked. He said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please adjourn the court first, and then... then discuss this with Mo Li, okay, Your Majesty?"
Xiumei said, "Your Majesty, please withdraw from the court."
Heshen and Xiumei both knelt down and called out "Your Majesty".
Mo Li also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the ruler of a country, the head of all people, you don't even dare to acknowledge the woman you love, Your Majesty."
Emperor Gai Zhang knew that he could no longer hide the truth, so he stood up and said loudly: "I am Xiumei's man."
"Your Majesty is wise." Mo Li knelt down and kowtowed to him. Then he stood up again.
Du Xiaoyue said "Your Majesty", but she was a little hesitant to believe it.
Emperor Gai Zhang said: "I don't want to be a heartless person, so I decided to marry Xiumei."
He Shen stood up, looking distressed, as if he had lost millions of taels of silver, and said, "Mo Li, do you know how big a mess you've made?"
Mo Li was not afraid either, and said, "Heshen Heshang, the storm is bound to come sooner or later, and no one can cover it up."
"you……"
Heshen wanted to poke Mo Li's head with his index finger, but before he could do so, Mo Li counterattacked and also poked him on the forehead.
Du Xiaoyue was like a wounded quail, saying, "Xiaoyue deserves death. I scolded the emperor many times just now."
Emperor Gai Zhang acted calm and said, "I deserve the scolding, and it's a good scolding."
The Minister of Justice knelt down and said, "I risk my life to report to the Emperor that Xiumei is a Han Chinese commoner. According to the rules of the Great Xuan Imperial Family, Your Majesty cannot marry her as a concubine."
All the civil and military officials knelt down and shouted:
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
The Emperor slammed his folding fan on the table and said, "My ministers are not allowed to interfere in my family affairs."
