Liu Zhou still remembers that Xin You urged Zhang Xu not to tell the adults at home. Doesn't this mean that the young people will resolve their grievances by themselves?

 If it were him, he would do this to avoid being scolded by the elders in the family.

Shopkeeper Hu is older and doesn't think so from the perspective of an elder: "My boss has done the right thing. Mr. Zhang has an unusual background, and today's fight was seen by so many people -"

Liu Zhou couldn't help but correct him: "I was beaten."

Is that a fight? It was clearly a unilateral beating by the owner.

Shopkeeper Hu glanced sideways at him: "As long as you extend your hand, it's a fight. In short, sooner or later, this matter will reach the ears of his elders in the family. When the time comes, his elders will ask for an explanation. If Long Live Grandpa doesn't understand anything, it will be detrimental to the boss."

 “The shopkeeper is very thoughtful.” Liu Zhou nodded, feeling a hint of contemptuous sympathy for Zhang Xu who was beaten into a pig’s head and refused to go home to complain.

 The silly boy is far worse than his boss.

Xinyou went straight to the palace, and the guard at the gate recognized the face and let him go.

Emperor Xingyuan had previously said that Xin You was qualified to enter the palace directly like Princess Zhaoyang. Of course, whether we can see Emperor Xingyuan still needs to wait for the news.

Xin You didn't wait long before he was led in.

 “I have met your Majesty.”

Emperor Xingyuan was in a good mood because Xinyou took the initiative to come to him. When he saw the person, he couldn't help but frown: "What happened to Ayou?"

Xin You went to the Qingsong Bookstore after taking off her green official uniform and putting on ordinary clothes. It could be seen that her clothes were wrinkled and her bun was a little messy.

 Looks like it's been pulled with someone.

Xin You lowered his eyes and said, "I got into a fight with someone."

Emperor Xingyuan thought he heard wrongly: "Fight?"

Xinyou nodded.

"Who are you fighting with? Why are you fighting? Did you win?" Emperor Xingyuan asked a series of questions, which were both a little angry and a little fresh.

 Of course she was not angry at Xin You, but at the person who dared to beat her daughter. As for freshness, this is indeed a feeling that Emperor Xingyuan has never experienced as a father.

Even if the six princes have some small thoughts, they will not take action directly. It may have happened, but they will not make trouble in front of him. Not to mention the three princesses, they all spoke softly in front of him.

 Ayou can actually fight.

 After being fresh, you feel proud.

 He used to fight every day when he was young. Sure enough, among all the children, Ayou is the most like him.

“Today I went to the bookstore, and Zhang Xu came to see me—”

“Zhang Xu? Is he the grandson of Zhang Shoufu?”

 Zhang Shoufu is a veteran minister from the founding of the country to the present. His son died early, leaving only such a grandson, so Emperor Xingyuan was impressed.

"It's him."

 “Why is he looking for you?”

“He and Dai Ze were good friends. Something happened to the Guchangbo Mansion and Dai Ze was sent to the border area. He felt that it was the appearance of the minister that was responsible, so he came to settle the score with the minister.”

"How unreasonable!" Emperor Xingyuan became angry when he heard this.

What kind of thing is this kid? He confuses right and wrong and is so audacious!

Xin You pursed her lips, showing a bit of grievance: "What's even more outrageous is that he also angered Duan Shaoqing's nephew Duan Yunlang and made a black move against Duan Yunlang..."

After hearing Xin You's story about Duan Yunlang being beaten with a sack while walking on the road, Emperor Xingyuan was not surprised by Zhang Xu's domineering attitude, but rather surprised by his stupidity: "Did Zhang Xu admit it?"

There is nothing you can do about this kind of unfounded thing if you don't admit it. Zhang Shoufu is also a wealthy man, why is his only grandson so stupid? "He admitted it himself." Xin You raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes and said coldly, "Considering that his grandfather was an important minister in the court, I didn't want to cause too much trouble. But not only did he unabashedly admit that he was beaten in front of me, Second Young Master Duan, when he saw that I was angry, he even ridiculed me whether I had developed feelings for Second Young Master Duan—"

 “You bastard!” Emperor Xingyuan shouted, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

As the founding emperor who conquered the country, Emperor Xingyuan didn’t think it was serious when young people got into fights. As long as her daughter didn't suffer any loss, she could call Zhang Shoufu back to the palace to say a few words and be done with it, but after hearing that, she couldn't let it go.

How dare a dandy dare to slander his daughter’s innocence?

 Which father can endure this?

 “The chief assistant of the Chuanzhang enters the palace!”

 Zhang Chief Assistant received the summons and hurried into the palace: "I have seen your Majesty."

As a cabinet minister, Zhang Shoufu might be summoned to discuss matters at any time. He didn't think much about it at first, but when he saw Emperor Xingyuan's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but feel surprised.

Did a disaster and rebellion break out somewhere, or did Deng Geluo bring the fire to him?

 The former is a state matter, he has nothing to fear, but if the latter -

  No, he has been keeping a low profile recently, and he has also reminded people in the same faction to be cautious in their words and deeds.

 “Get up.”

 After Zhang Shoufu got up, he realized that Xin You was also there.

This discovery made his heart tense.

Three of the three people involved in Liu Gei's incident are still squatting in the imperial prison, which shows the emperor's love for this daughter. If entering the palace today is related to Xin You, it might be a bit troublesome.

“Does Mr. Zhang know why I summoned you to the palace?”

 “I don’t know.”

Emperor Xingyuan slapped the armrest of the chair and said, "Today, my grandson Xun Daizhao is in trouble. His words are very insulting. Although Xin Daizhao has a low official position, he is also an official of the court and represents my face. Zhang Qing, you should take good care of your grandson." ”

When Zhang Shoufu heard this, he cursed in his heart: Zhang Xu, this bastard, will not only cause trouble for him, but also cause trouble!

 Zhang Shoufu, who knew his grandson's temperament very well, had no doubts about Emperor Xingyuan's words.

　　I will teach that little **** a lesson when I get back. People will report him to the emperor, which will really bring shame on his old face.

“It’s my fault for not being able to discipline him properly. I will discipline him well when I get back.” Zhang Shoufu quickly knelt down again.

Emperor Xingyuan was not satisfied: "Lingsun is a man and a student of the Imperial College, but it is really unseemly to go to the Imperial College to trouble a little girl. Zhang Qing might as well take Lingsun home and teach him by words and deeds, and then send him to the Imperial College when he becomes sensible." .”

 Zhang Shoufu's face looked a little ugly.

The emperor's words sounded nice, but he actually ordered his grandson to drop out of school.

 The Imperial College mainly recruits the children of officials. These classmates of the same background and age have developed deep relationships since childhood and will help each other once they enter official careers in the future.

 The grandson of the dignified chief minister of the cabinet was expelled from school, which can be said to be a disgrace.

 However, Zhang Shoufu did not have the courage to disobey the holy order, so he endured his heartache and thanked him.

“Sun Yan, accompany Zhang Shoufu to the Imperial College, and send someone to talk to Meng Jijiu.”

 Zhang Shoufu was even more upset after hearing this.

It was humiliating enough for my grandson to be expelled from school, and he had to be watched by eunuchs.

“Zhang Shoufu, please.”

Meng Jijiu was already at home at this time. After receiving the message from the palace, he hurried back to the Imperial College.

"Zhang Xu beat Miss Xin, are you going home with Zhang Shoufu?" After hearing Sun Yan's intention, Meng Jijiu suppressed his surprise and ordered someone to call Zhang Xu.

I have long wanted to expel this dandy, Your Majesty.
