Chapter 978: Teaching His Wife Under Imperial Decree (1)
It was the 29th day of the Lunar New Year.
Heavy snow fell.
The ministers went out for court early in the morning and had lunch in the palace.
In the afternoon, he discussed state affairs with His Majesty in the royal study.
When she left the palace, the lanterns were already lit up, and candles were lit everywhere.
There was already a thick layer of snow on the ground. Fortunately, the palace was cleaned in time, so it did not affect anything.
Many of the lords came to the palace gates and smiled as they bid farewell.
“Everyone, when you go back, you must properly restrain the juniors in the residence and take care of the wives and concubines in the residence. When a man was outside, his face was worth thousands of gold. I can’t tolerate women jumping on my head.”
“Don’t be like our Lord Yang, a dignified official of the Imperial Court, yet you let a woman scratch your face. What kind of words was it to be reprimanded by His Majesty? What a disgrace!”
Lord Yang’s face was slightly red. I’ll discipline her later.”
After today’s incident in the court, he lowered his head in the royal study, not daring to attract the Emperor’s attention.
The lords nodded lightly. That was true.
“Moreover, His Majesty is a man of indomitable spirit. He doesn’t like women to begin with, so how could he value officials who bow down in front of women? When he returned, he had to properly restrain the women in the residence. Lord Yang, if you still want to be promoted, you have to restrain your women when you go back. Don’t let a woman ruin your future.”
Lord Yang’s heart was filled with courage.
“Milords, you are right. When I return, I will regain the Patriarch’s prestige. Moreover, this is His Majesty’s intention. This is an imperial edict!” Lord Yang’s ears were red and his face was firm.
After chatting for a while, they slowly climbed into the carriage with a head of snow.
The squeaking carriage moved along the official road. Lord Yang sat in the carriage, holding a cup of warm tea in his hand.
“Hmph, with His Majesty backing me up this time, let’s see if you still dare to slap my face!” Lord Yang was very smug in his heart.
After getting off the carriage, the snow was falling heavily. The gatekeeper came out with an umbrella to pick up Lord Yang.
Lord Yang flicked away the snow on his shoulders, his brows carrying a bit of arrogance.
“Where’s Madam? Does she know she was wrong?”
The gatekeeper was startled, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
After a long while, he said faintly, ” Madam has moved all of Master’s belongings to the woodshed. Master, what do you think?? ”
In any case, Lord Yang would be chased out a few times a year.
Lord Yang flew into a rage. When he thought of His Majesty’s support, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
“This is outrageous. Is the Yang family surnamed Yang or Zheng? You guys are receiving my money, but you’re siding with a Zheng!”
“This Yang family is my Yang family. Who dares to move a firewood house for me?”
“His Majesty said in front of the civil and military officials that the husband is greater than the heavens, and women should rely on men. How dare she defy the divine order!” Lord Yang roared.
“This official is obeying the imperial decree to teach his wife. Hmph, this official will teach her a lesson today!”
He immediately strode into the house.
Snowflakes fell from the sky.
Da da da da…
The guards on horses rushed out of the palace gates.
The snow on the ground was crushed, and mud splashed all over his body.
The guard arrived at the gates of the manors and smashed them one by one.
“His Majesty urgently summons you. Please enter the palace as soon as possible.”
“His Majesty urgently summons Lord Yang to enter the palace as soon as possible.”
“His Majesty has summoned you urgently. Please enter the palace quickly.”
His Majesty urgently summoned…”
Armored guards knocked on the doors of four or five houses in succession. The adults who had just arrived home and had not had time to eat.
He ran out again, rolling and crawling.
