874 A Problem of Upbringing

However, she heard a burst of mocking laughter.

Guo Bing laughed out loud, “Duke Zhengguo and Madam, is this the upbringing that you said my big brother lacks? Now I am glad for my brother. At least with his current upbringing, he wouldn’t go around calling me a bastard.”

Jiang Yunfeng was furious.

He pointed at Guo Bing and wanted to scold him.

“Shut up!” A voice as loud as a Bell suddenly rang out. Then, Duke Guo, Guo Shizhong, strode over from the intersection. As soon as he arrived, he scolded Guo Bing, “look at you! Don’t you know how to respect your elders? No matter what, what did the matter between these two siblings have to do with the Duke and his wife? Stop talking so much!”

Guo Shizhong sounded like he was lecturing Guo Bing, but there was actually another hidden meaning. Jiang Yunfeng and his wife were both elders, but they were actually making things difficult for a junior. They really didn’t act like elders and were putting on airs.

Of course, the junior he was referring to was Jiang Zhennan.

There was also another layer of meaning. ‘You and your wife can’t even educate your own children well, so what right do you have to educate my son?’

As the most favored youngest son of the Guo family, they couldn’t even bear to say a harsh word to Guo Bing, so what right did an outsider have to scold his son?

All in all, Guo Shizhong was protective of his own.

As soon as Guo Shizhong’s words fell, Jiang Yunfeng and his wife’s faces were almost distorted.

They wanted to scold Jiang Zhennan, but they lost their face instead.

Just as Jiang Yunfeng was about to come up with a rebuttal, a sharp voice rang in everyone’s ears, “the Emperor and the Empress have arrived!”

As soon as the eunuch finished shouting, a hearty and majestic laugh rang out. “haha, my Dear Ministers, what are you all talking about? ” I heard Minister Guo’s loud voice from far away!”

Then, under the light, a man in his fifties wearing a bright yellow Dragon robe, with a Nine-Tailed Phoenix hairpin on his head, could be seen. His face was ruddy, and his skin was fair. Beside him was the empress, who was in her thirties.

Behind them was the charming Imperial Noble Consort-Zhou Wenya, who was wearing a large peony green gauze and a Kasaya that dragged the floor with pink daffodils and green leaves.

“Long live the Emperor! Long live the empress!”

When the Emperor and Empress arrived, everyone, including Jiang Zhennan, immediately knelt down to welcome them.

“All ministers, rise!” The Emperor said.

“Many thanks, Your Majesty!” Everyone stood up.

After everyone got up, the Emperor asked Guo Shizhong curiously again, ” Minister Guo, I clearly heard your loud voice just now. What were you talking about?”

In fact, every move that had happened just now had been reported to him by the secret guards.

Therefore, of course, he knew that Jiang Yunfeng wanted to scold and make things difficult for Jiang Zhennan again.

For such family affairs, he, the Emperor, had never interfered and let Jiang Zhennan, this blockhead, solve it on his own.

He thought that Jiang Zhennan would tolerate the couple like before.

However, what surprised him was that this time, his beloved general actually did not hold back. He said that Wen Yujing was not worthy of being his mother.

This really surprised him, the Emperor.

In reality, he was more curious about the reason why his beloved general had stopped holding back.

Of course, he would ask him about this in private.

Now, he was just pretending not to know anything.

Guo Shizhong replied, ” Your Majesty, it was this unfilial son of mine who spoke rudely! I was teaching him a lesson!” As he spoke, he pointed at Guo Bing.

The Emperor said in disbelief, ” Oh, Minister Guo, I heard that your family values the youngest son. How could you bear to teach him a lesson? Moreover…” He made a gesture that indicated that this was a big occasion.

Guo Shizhong glared at Guo Bing and seemed to be angry at him. He said, ” no matter how much we cherish him, what he did was wrong. Therefore, I had to teach him a lesson so that he wouldn’t go around spouting nonsense, disgracing the Guo family’s face, and ruining our reputation!”

Guo Shizhong was a boorish person, and he spoke in a boorish manner as well. He did not care what the occasion was, and he just said what he had to say.

Everyone knew that Guo Shizhong was really scolding someone else through his son.

Two people in the crowd blushed because they were embarrassed.

Everyone present understood Guo Shizhong’s hidden meaning.

Jiang Yunfeng and Wen Yujing did not educate their son and daughter well and made Duke Zhengguo lose face.

Even so, Jiang Yunfeng couldn’t just refute Guo Shizhong before the emperor. It would make him even more embarrassed!
