           									Chapter 158: Punish and Cannot defy the citizens
Right after the emperor received Tiancang Pavillion’s news, he immediately made a careful arrangement .  But, who would have thought, that Xiao Tianyao would be this shameless and expose those evidence in this way . 
After the emperor received the news, he got furious and immediately sent people to suppress Xiao Tianyao’s plan, but he was too late .  Once things got exposed, no matter how much you wanted to erase it, it won’t be easy anymore . 
After an hour, the emperor’s people had collected all the papers that Xiao Tianyao has spread .  But, they cannot erase the people’s memory and made them turn a blind eye to it . 
The Chief of Investigation returns to the palace, once he made sure that no evidence could be seen in the capital anymore .  But, as for the other places, they don’t have enough time to collect it . 
Looking at the big file of crimes of his people, the emperor’s face becomes as black as the pot’s bottom: “This is all my loyal palace ministers? You all really gave me a good face . ”
No fish can survive if the water is too clean .  The emperor naturally knows that his people are not clean, but not to this extent . 
“These officials are all sinners . ” Left Prime Minister Lin Xiang and Right Prime Minister You said and kneel in front of the emperor . 
Left Prime Minister Lin Xiang and Right Prime Minister You didn’t make any mistakes, but because their servant and family member were guilty, they cannot help but also plea . 
Aside from family member, Right Prime Minister You‘s young granddaughter was badly soiled by General Jiu Mei .  So, to make his image good, he wanted to ask the emperor to strictly prosecute him . 
    Originally, for the sake of his family’s image, Right Prime Minister You doesn’t want to admit the cheap young lady was his granddaughter .  But, to avoid people cursing right in front their door, he no longer denied it . 
And after recognizing her, naturally, he must seek justice!
“Huangshang, for this old official’s sake, please severely punish General Jiu Mei . ” Right Prime Minister You burst into tears .  He is very old but he cried like a child .  So, even though the emperor was very angry, he couldn’t turn a blind eye . 
Seeing Right Prime Minister You crying like there’s no tomorrow, the other palace ministers understood his intention, so they also follow and beg .  To solidify and escape this disastrous incident, the emperor must show his power . 
The other palace ministers were also guilty, but because their misdemeanors were not severe .  They demanded to the emperor to severely punish General Jiu Mei . 
These palace ministers really know who to punish and not .  Princess Fushou Zhang and General Zhen were also guilty of their crimes, but to put away the emperor’s anger, they turn a blind eye to it .  But, will the other people involve and the citizens also do the same?
Originally, the emperor summoned these palace ministers to solve an immediate problem .  But, who would have thought that these palace ministers will seek justice and focus on a subject that he doesn’t have… … any care!
Right Prime Minister You haven’t attain justice, but a eunuch suddenly came and reported that Princess Fushou Zhang came to the palace crying and keep saying that she couldn’t live away with her husband, Prince Hou . 
Princess Fushou Zhang has never lived apart with Prince Hou .  And although she was arrogant and insolent, Prince Hou has no other choice but tolerate her .  However, now that she made a mistake, Prince Hou can now divorce her . 
Princess Fushou Zhang keeping toy-boys in her courtyard is not a secret .  After all, she was living with her in-laws, so how come they wouldn’t know? However, outsiders doesn’t know this secret, so her face was kept clean .  
                 
But now that Xiao Tianyao exposed her secret, who’s Prince will still tolerate her? No one ah . 
Princess Fushou Zhang’s husband is not an ordinary person .  He is Northwest Viscount Hou’s legitimate son .  The First Emperor originally wanted to win Northwest Viscount Hou, but he could only make his youngest son as his son-in-law .  
Northwest Viscount Hou’s legitimate son also know that this marriage is nothing but a political marriage .  So, even if he was very dissatisfied with Princess Fushou Zhang, all he could do is give her a face .  However, now that her secret was exposed, he no longer wanted tolerate her and just want to keep his face .  
The riot outside haven’t subsided, but a civil strife strike once again .  The emperor faces an endless problem, but he had no other choice but to dismissed his palace ministers and went to the inner palace to appease Princess Fushou Zhang . 
Northwest Viscount Hou is not an easy man, with this incident, they cannot appease him lightly .
