The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1817 Tingfeng Nunnery is not the same as Lingchen Temple

"You stay here. I have something to say to Shang Xi!"

Ge Dongqing realized that if Shang Xi were given the opportunity to meet the Emperor alone, Shang Xi's stubborn and straightforward personality would surely lead her to reveal everything about him. Rather than having Shang Xi tell him, he might as well confess himself!

So Ge Dongqing knelt down on the ground with a thud, and as soon as he opened his mouth, tears were streaming down his face, "Your Majesty, your subject is guilty!"

Wan Lianxing never expected this person to put on this show for him here.

Wan Lianxing wanted to kick him, but remembering the demeanor a monarch should have, he held back. "There are juniors here. What are you doing? Can't you wait until we get out of this door to talk about it?"

"Brother, it'll be too late once we leave this door!" Ge Dongqing said hesitantly, as if he had been wronged and had suffered unfair treatment.

But who would dare to wrong the emperor's sworn brother!

Wan Lianxing saw his behavior and was furious. This man had no bearing whatsoever of a high-ranking official; he was truly embarrassing him.

Wan Lianxing looked at this person from every angle and felt increasingly angry and frustrated. He wanted to hit him but couldn't bring himself to do it; if he didn't, the man wouldn't learn his lesson! He had come to visit a sick person, and his sister-in-law was lying in the inner room, also ill! This was not the time to plead his case!

Wan Lianxing finally uttered only two words in a deep voice, "Get up."

Ge Dongqing, however, was stuck to the floor and refused to get up. Not only that, he pitifully said, "If I get up, His Majesty will surely punish me."

Wan Lianxing wanted to curse, knowing full well that it would be a crime, so why did he break the law?

Wan Lianxing forcefully flicked his sleeve, "If you make a mistake and violate the laws of Fengqi, it won't do you any good even if you kneel on the ground until you die. I will not show you any favoritism! Everything will be handled in accordance with the laws of Fengqi."

When Wan Lianxing mentioned that he was not biased towards Ge Dongqing, he glanced at Shang Xi, whose face was cold and indifferent, as if it were an unintentional glance. He clearly saw Shang Xi's mouth twitch involuntarily, and her thoughts were self-evident.

Shang Xi stood there watching the two sworn brothers with a cold eye, and his nephew sat there grinning foolishly. Although their expressions were completely different, they both looked like they were enjoying a good show.

Wan Lianxing turned to leave, but a pair of hands grabbed the hem of his robe. "Brother, I know I was wrong!"

Wan Lianxing sighed, "You've only been back from the Southern Yan Kingdom for a few days, what trouble have you caused me this time? Tell me, let me hear it, and see if this crime is punishable by beheading. If it is, just behead me, so as not to cause me any more trouble every few days. I'm too lazy to protect you anymore!"

However, Wan Lianxing knew that Ge Dongqing wouldn't make any major mistakes. The only thing that was beneath him was his fondness for frequenting various entertainment venues!

"Big brother!"

"It's no use clinging to my leg. I'm going to deal with you severely this time. Make your point, let's see what kind of news you've stirred up this time!" Wan Lianxing said this to Ge Dongqing, and also to Shang Xi, who was watching coldly. From Shang Xi's eyes, Wan Lianxing saw a lot: mockery, distrust, and skepticism. How could he let a woman look down on him!

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Ge Dongqing stammered and wouldn't continue!

Wan Lianxing's hands itched at the sight of Ge Dongqing; he was so angry he wanted to hit him! "Speak properly! Why are you looking at Shang Xi like that!"

Ge Dongqing sniffed, steeled his resolve, and said tearfully, "Brother, I've been to Tingfeng Nunnery a few times lately. Brother, I've only been there a few times, and I haven't done anything!"

Wan Lianxing frowned. "Tingfeng Nunnery? What kind of place is that? It sounds like a temple!"

Ge Dongqing nodded, "It's a temple!"

"What's there to cry about at a temple? I go to Lingchen Temple twice a year to offer incense! This is just making me sick!"

Ge Dongqing bit his lip and said with a look of grim determination, "Brother, Tingfeng Nunnery and Lingchen Temple are different."

! ”

"They're all places for offering incense and listening to sutras, what's the difference! Why haven't I heard the Imperial Preceptor mention that there's such a temple in Fengying City before!" Suddenly, Wan Lianxing lowered his eyes and looked at Ge Dongqing, who was kneeling at his feet and tugging at his robe, and asked for confirmation: "The Tingfeng Nunnery you mentioned is inside Fengying City, isn't it?"

"It's inside the city, in the north, in a relatively secluded location!"

Wan Lianxing nodded, his voice softening considerably. "Sincerity is key; it doesn't matter where you go. I don't care if ministers offer incense, and none of the laws we follow restrict you ministers from going to temples to offer incense. Get up!"

Ge Dongqing dared not get up; his trip to Tingfeng Temple to offer incense was far more than that.

Suddenly, Ge Dongqing let out a howl without warning, startling Old Madam Wan, who was sleeping in the inner room, into opening her eyes! Shang Xi also took a step back!

Ge Dongqing tapped Ge Dongqing's head lightly with his fan, causing the jade crown on Ge Dongqing's head to tilt to one side. "This is my sister-in-law's courtyard, not my Yangxin Hall! You think you can cry and wail as you please? Hold it back, or I won't listen to you!"

Ge Dongqing wiped his tears and snot with Wan Lianxing's robe. Wan Lianxing wanted to kick him, but he was a very clean person. In order to maintain his dignity and demeanor as a monarch, he endured it.

Ge Dongqing steeled himself once again, risking his future, and said with a stiff upper lip, "Brother, Tingfeng Nunnery is a nunnery!"

Wan Lianxing looked at Ge Dongqing's face buried in his robe, then at Shang Xi who was watching coldly, and then at Cheng Feng who was still grinning foolishly. After thinking for a long time, Wan Lianxing finally spoke incredulously, "Ge Dongqing, you flirted with the nun!"

Upon hearing this, Ge Dongqing suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with accusation, and cried out, "I was harassed by the nun!"

After saying that, Ge Dongqing leaned back and pounded the ground with his fists in agony, as if he had lost his virginity.

Cheng Feng couldn't help but stand up. How could this person have the nerve to lie on the ground and cry so loudly in their Prince's mansion! Cheng Feng said mockingly, "Uncle, should we call back the imperial physician who treated my mother and have him take a look at Uncle Ge? If he keeps crying like this, he'll probably cry himself to death!"

Wan Lianxing was already used to it. In the past, he often had headaches because of Ge Dongqing, but now when he saw him cry, Wan Lianxing's nerves didn't even flinch.

Wan Lianxing waved his hand dismissively, "Even if he rolls around crying and cries himself to death here, you don't need to be afraid. His death is my responsibility. You worthless wretches, you've even learned to flirt with nuns! I think you're all birds of a feather! If you didn't go to the nunnery, why would the nuns bother you!" Only after saying this did Wan Lianxing realize that it was a temple, not a brothel! "Temples are places for nuns to cultivate themselves. How could you possibly have anything to do with nuns!"
