Chapter 167 Punishment Effect

Luo Wenqian's feelings for Wen Jin are actually a bit complicated.

Luo Wenqian still remembers the joy he felt when he first discovered that Wen Jin was from the same hometown as him.

At that time, Luo Wenqian did not get the top spot in the exam, and he was deeply ostracized in the court, with no one to talk to.

People around him laughed at him because he was not strong enough and he came from a rural area.

He spoke with an accent from the beginning, so the locals naturally excluded him.

When he was buying things on the street, the vendors would laugh at him because of his accent.

Some people even directly mocked: "Where did you come from? If you want to fit in here, you must first learn the local language.

Where did this country bumpkin come from, begging for a living here?"

At this time, it was Wen Jin who came to the rescue. At that time, Wen Jin was also a young man who was full of righteousness and vigor.

Wen Jin immediately scolded the vendors: "What's wrong with you being from outside the province? Do you know how many of the civil and military officials in the court are from outside the province?

The current emperor has never discriminated against outsiders. You are just a vendor selling sesame cakes, why do you discriminate against others?

You are a local here, but you are just a sesame cake seller.

He is an outsider, but he is still an official in Dayun Dynasty. Who should laugh at whom?"

At that moment, Luo Wenqian looked at Wen Jin, and a golden light appeared on his body, so bright that he couldn't open his eyes. Luo Wenqian felt a sense of admiration for Wen Jin.

With tears in his eyes, Luo Wenqian looked at the carriage getting smaller and smaller in the darkness, and then he came to his senses.

Luo Wenqian seemed to have made up his mind. He immediately turned around and strode towards the Luo Mansion.

After Luo Wenqian arrived at the Luo Mansion, he slammed the door shut and stood in the dark for a long time, feeling like a deflated balloon.

After a long while, Luo Wenqian recalled every detail of his time with Wen Jin.

An unprecedented determination appeared on Luo Wenqian's face, and he threw a string of bracelets into the darkness.

The moment the bracelet fell to the ground, the beads scattered all over the ground. In the silent night, a loud noise was made, just like Luo Wenqian's heartbreaking voice.

Luo Wenqian knew the road ahead, and he would be walking alone. The friend who once shared the same ideals with him had now completely parted ways.

At the court the next morning, Wen Shang emphasized to all the civil and military officials: "Luo Wenqian and Wen Jin have been suspended for three months due to their bad morals.

During these three months, they need someone to take over and handle things temporarily. Is there anyone among you willing to do so?

From what they said, all the ministers in the court were worried about the crown prince of Dayun Dynasty.

After Heng'er gets married, I will tell everyone who the crown prince is!

Regarding this matter, everyone should stop being self-suspicious and secretly slandering others.

If I find out that someone is secretly forming a clique for personal gain, you will think about whether your head is worth losing!"

After hearing this, all the ministers knelt on the ground, and no one dared to look up, for fear that the emperor would notice them.

The emperor didn't even look at the crowd. After he finished speaking, he adjusted his hat and left without looking back.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the emperor leave.

Most people in the court form cliques for their own interests. If the emperor investigates, I'm afraid no one can escape responsibility.

However, when some ministers heard that Luo Wenqian was suspended, they couldn't help but start to hold back their laughter, and their faces turned red.

He knew very well that although the emperor was gone, he might not have taken his eyes with him.

Everyone was very quiet in the court, and most people ran away as soon as they left the hall.

The emperor was a very suspicious person. Even though he was not in the court, he was always keeping an eye on what was happening in the court.

After the court session today, all the ministers had a meeting. Everyone knew that the emperor had released two pieces of news.

The ministers gathered together to analyze the current situation and see what to do next.

Those who can stay in the court for many years are all very capable.

If we want to continue our prosperity and wealth, I'm afraid everyone needs to carefully observe the situation. If we make a wrong move, our lives will be in danger.

Although Luo Wenqian has won over many people in the court over the years, now that he is down and out, no one will miss their old friendship.

Luo Wenqian's house was also very lively today, and many friends came to see him.

Luo Wenqian was so excited when he saw his friends coming. At this moment, Luo Wenqian felt that he had finally grasped something after years of being in a daze.

Luo Wenqian warmly invited those people to come to the study, and ordered his servants to take out the tea that he had collected for many years and brew it.

He believed that those who came to see him at these times must have regarded him as a friend.

Luo Wenqian was even searching around in the study, thinking of sharing some of his good things with them.

Those people were not polite in Luo Wenqian's study, looking around.

Occasionally, a few people would point at the study door and say with a smile: "Is this door made of golden nanmu?"

Others followed suit: "Our Prime Minister Luo has been making waves in the court for so many years, how could he not be?

The upper limit of this door is golden nanmu, but the upper limit of our Prime Minister Luo is not. How can you be so blind as to not recognize Mount Tai?

Prime Minister Luo, what do you think? "

Luo Wenqian's hand, which was still searching for something, paused. The smile on his face froze instantly, and he was dazed for a moment.

Someone poked Luo Wenqian, and he came back to his senses.

There was no longer a smile on Luo Wenqian's face, it had long been replaced by a fake smile.

Luo Wenqian stared at the two people who had just spoken, and said to them with full vigor: "Officials must be honest.

As the Prime Minister of the Dayun Dynasty, I have done my duty to heaven, earth, and the people.

I don't think I have any upper limit. I have been working diligently for Dayun Dynasty over the years.

I just take my salary honestly. The study is just a place to read books. What's the point of using such a nice door?

Besides, that door is not cheap, and I have never seen what golden nanmu looks like.

You all must be really capable. Do you know what golden nanmu looks like?

This wood is almost rotten. To you, does it look like golden nanmu?

It's just like a wooden head!"

Those people didn't expect Luo Wenqian to dare to do this, and they directly mocked him. Those who came here to gain the upper hand were naturally dissatisfied.

The other two also glanced at Luo Wenqian and cursed in the local dialect: "We came to see you just because we look up to you!

Who doesn't know what you have been like over the years?

You finally got into trouble recently, didn't you? Do you think the emperor will still use you? You are just a rat crossing the street now!

Why are you still so arrogant in front of us?

Look at it, in the past three months, with all the changes in the court, is there still a place for you?

Do you know how many people hate you and stay away from you now?

Do you really think of yourself as the former Prime Minister Luo?

What everyone respects is the position of Prime Minister, not you, Luo Wenqian!"

When he heard the same accent as he did more than ten years ago, Luo Wenqian was so angry that he started shaking all over and his lips felt numb!

Luo Wenqian didn't want to argue with them anymore, so he just took out his fists and started punching them both.

Luo Wenqian imagined that those people would fall down with one punch, but he didn't expect that his punch was like hitting cotton.

Although the two men were thin, they were strong. Luo Wenqian punched them, but the two men did not fall down. Instead, he hit their backs and his hands hurt.

No one else cried out, but Luo Wenqian cried out first: "You are just bullying me. How can there be such a hard bone? This is not called a bone, this is called a weapon!"

His behavior caused everyone to burst into laughter. No one expected that Luo Wenqian could be so funny.

The two men pretended to be weak, touched their backs, and shouted weakly: "Wow! Our Prime Minister Luo is so great! He is worthy of being Prime Minister Luo!

Not only is he a talented writer, he's also famous for his martial arts skills. He can even hit my spine!

No one else can hit it! Wow, that's awesome!

No wonder he was able to sit on the prime minister's seat. If it were someone else, they might not be able to do it!"

These words were so heartbreaking that Luo Wenqian had nowhere to hide. He awkwardly found a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment on the spot.

The other two people covered their backs and pretended to gasp in pain.

They immediately began to pull the hands of others, and some said sadly: "Quick, call a doctor! If you don't hurry up, my wound will heal soon!

This is not what I wanted, it was Prime Minister Luo who did it! You have to testify for us!"

The two men looked at Luo Wenqian, who was struggling on the ground, covering his hands.

The two of them then expressed some regret to the crowd: "Everyone, come and see what happened to Prime Minister Luo.

I didn't want to do that either. I don't know how, but our Prime Minister Luo was injured!

You all have to bear witness for me, it wasn't my idea, it wasn't me who started it!"

Everyone burst into laughter watching this farce, and many people even took advantage of the chaos to kick Luo Wenqian.

Luo Wenqian was kicked so far away by this unexpected kick that he was now a laughing stock in everyone's eyes.

Although Luo Wenqian became a laughing stock, he turned around in pain and carefully memorized the faces of these people. A very good plan of blaming others formed in his mind.

However, the group of laughing people were only concerned with the joke in front of them. No one looked closely at Luo Wenqian's eyes. There was madness and viciousness hidden in his eyes.

Luo Wenqian calmly stood up, dusted himself off, and sat upright. Just then, the maid brought up the freshly brewed tea.

Luo Wenqian stopped the maid and drank every bowl of tea himself.

Everyone looked at Luo Wenqian who had finished more than ten bowls of tea. They were all a little surprised. They didn't expect Luo Wenqian to do this.

The two people who had just been the first to speak out immediately came out and pointed at Luo Wenqian's head, and said with some surprise and a hint of anger: "What are you doing?

How could this prime minister be so stingy? He didn't even give me a bowl of tea? Is your prime minister's mansion so poor?

Or is this your way of entertaining guests?

Now we have finally seen what kind of person he is!"

Luo Wenqian pretended not to hear these words, and after drinking all the tea, he burped and said: "Tea is used to entertain people, not to entertain animals.

Some people know basic etiquette when visiting someone's home.

Some animals don't know, that's normal. Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.

Is this something that is difficult to understand? Or is it that you are not human and therefore naturally cannot understand it?

I'm not a mean person. You all make fun of me, but I still treat you as guests of honor?

Or are you just so shameless that you come to mock me and think I will treat you as guests.

Get out of here right now! It's disgusting just looking at you!

We will just wait and see who will have the last laugh."

Seeing that Luo Wenqian was angry, some of them became unhappy, and some even said with a frown: "Isn't it just a teasing on you? Is it that serious? Can't you take a joke?"

Luo Wenqian walked up to them, gave them a sip of water, looked at them and said with a laugh: "Laugh! Why don't you laugh?

I was just joking with you guys! How come you can’t take a joke now? You’re still so stingy! "

Several people now exchanged glances with each other, immediately surrounded Luo Wenqian, and slapped him again and again.

When the maid saw this, she immediately came to find Wang Yuyuan. Luo Chen and I were there.

After hearing the whole story, we naturally understood that it was just a fight between evil people.

Wang Yuyuan and I both pretended not to know. Luo Wenqian had sown his own seeds, so he should enjoy the fruits of his actions. There was no need to sympathize with him.

After fighting for a while, a few of them still had some reason and calmly advised: "Stop fighting! This is someone else's mansion after all. If he tells the emperor, can you guys still escape?

Although he has been suspended, he should not go too far! In this situation, everyone should be more restrained. "

After listening to it, everyone thought about it and felt that it made sense, so they retreated.

Luo Wenqian's face was swollen and his body was covered in dust. In addition, he drank too much water, so his stomach was bulging.

No one who sees it will believe that he is the Prime Minister of Dayun Dynasty.

Every day some people would come to the house to look for Luo Wenqian. After this incident, Luo Wenqian knew that those people were just there to laugh at him, so he would not see them.

Wen Jin wasn't much better. He had made a lot of enemies in the beginning, and everyone made fun of him, but it wasn't that obvious!

From then on, Wen Jin began to refuse to see visitors.

Wen Jin has been recuperating at home, he is just counting the days!
