2593 Compensation!
The Vassal King of Jianping forced the remonstration memorial down his throat. He cried out unclearly as he swallowed, “Your Majesty, just treat what this younger brother said as a fart and let it go like this! Treat it as you’ve never seen this remonstration memorial! Okay?”
The emperor: …
All the imperial censors were flabbergasted!
Was the Vassal King of Jianping’s stroke of genius not too heaven-defying?
Mo Lian secretly twitched his mouth.
He was still maintaining a poker face. He didn’t say anything nor express an opinion, yet he was roaring wildly in laughter in secret.
It wouldn’t do. It was truly too hilarious. He hurt too much from laughing!
No matter how he looked at it, this uncle of his was such a clown…
Qiao Mu swept the Vassal King of Jianping an indifferent look. “Humph!”
The Vassal King of Jianping hastily scrambled forward and said to Qiao Mu obsequiously, “Crown Prince Consort, how about you let me eat this statement of confession too!”
“Pfft…” Hu Dequan lowered his head, hastily swallowing his laugh, but he saw that those old imperial censors next to him were having an even harder time holding their laughter!
He couldn’t, he couldn’t!
Are you sure this Vassal King of Jianping and the emperor were born from the same father?
“Alright!” The emperor’s eyelid jerked. He spoke sternly, “Everyone stop talking. This matter should only be a misunderstanding. Jianping, you have to properly go back and discipline Mo Kun! If he dares be so reckless next time, he won’t be let off so easily next time!”
Qiao Mu lifted her chin and said pridefully, “It’s not impossible for me to pretend this incident never occurred, but you have to compensate me!!”
Mo Lian: …
The emperor: …
The imperial censors: …
“I will pursue the Vassal Prince of Jianping’s responsibility in compensating me!” Qiao Mu opened her black eyes wide as she said to the emperor, “Imperial Father! This is the compensation list that this daughter-in-law has drafted! Please stamp your seal for Imperial Uncle!”
Everyone: …
The Vassal King of Jianping was simply about to cry. How come he had to deal with such a shameless couple?
His Kun’er had suffered such a great shock, and he was still lying in bed unconscious. He didn’t expect for the young crown prince consort to still refuse to let him off!
Fine, they would compensate. It was a stroke of good luck amidst the bad that they could settle this with money in private.
It had to be known that this statement of confession could be played up or played down.
If they were set on pursuing responsibility, it was questionable whether Mo Kun could escape execution.
The Vassal King of Jianping took the compensation list that Eunuch Hu handed him. He did not comprehend the pity in Eunuch Hu’s eyes.
However, when that compensation list unfurled into a long scroll that hit the ground, everyone was gobsmacked.
The imperial censors sized up the young crown prince consort beside them like she was a little monster.
The Vassal King of Jianping looked through the scroll with distress. His face contorted after looking at each line.
In the crown prince consort’s compensation list, things like food, tools, buildings, and land were commonplace items at least, but there was also a collection of many rare treasures and forging materials he had never heard of before!
The Vassal King of Jianping looked at the crown prince consort in shock. His face was completely distorted!
The emperor expressed his sympathy for this younger brother, but that was it.
“C-Crown Prince Consort! This, is this not a bit too excessive?”
“How is it excessive??” Qiao Mu barked, her petite face immediately turning stern.
