Dalbe bent down, hugged Ping Shun who ran like a little swallow, and rubbed his nose affectionately, "You little thing, why did you come here?"
"Hmph, what are you talking about, where did you take Mommy last night? I lay on your bed and fell asleep waiting, and you didn't come back."
Pingshun complained with some unhappiness, pouted her mouth and stretched out her hand for Lu Huier to hug, "Mum, Pingshun didn't see you all night, I miss you so much."
"Mommy misses you too." Lu Hui'er kissed Ping Shun's face, but didn't take him to hug him. She doesn't have as good arm strength as Dalbe.
Dalbe glanced majestically at the ministers standing in the hall, and then said in a deep voice, "If you have nothing to do, you can go down."
As soon as his words fell, Tiemu immediately knelt down, "King, I have something to say."
A look of disgust flashed in Darby's eyes, "Say!"
"King, what happened in the palace yesterday, the little girl Tie Yuan has been crying non-stop since she went back, looking for death and life, she must say that she has no face to live." Tiemu said this deliberately, wanting to be in front of all the ministers. Let Dalbe give Tie Yuan an explanation.
Looking at the calculating face of Tiemu, Dalbe snorted coldly in disgust, "So she also knows that she has no face to live? Very good!"
Tiemu was stunned, never expecting Dalbe to respond to him like this.
It stands to reason that in order to take into account the dignity of the king, Dalbe will comfort him a few times, even if he is reluctant, he will marry Tie Yuan into the palace, right?
But how did things become like this? Did Dalbe want to be a fatuous king who was criticized by others?
Dalbe didn't miss Tie Mu's astonished expression, and the corner of his mouth curled up mockingly, "Taiwei, are you surprised? According to the previous tradition, why do I have to marry Tie Yuan to appease people's hearts?"
"Yes." Tiemu nodded subconsciously, and quickly shook his head after seeing Dalbe's knowing gaze, "No, king, I really love my daughter, and there is no other meaning."
"Hmph," Dalbe snorted coldly, "it's her own fault for seeking death and life. I know better than anyone else what she did to me yesterday! I thought I didn't want to pursue it for your sake. , but now it seems that if I don’t explain the matter clearly, I will be maliciously led by you to become a bastard who is not as good as a beast!"
With that said, Dalbe turned around and told the guards outside the hall, "Go and bring the maid who made my coffee yesterday. I want her to tell the truth in front of everyone!"
"Yes!" The guard didn't dare to delay, and immediately went to bring the maid who was locked up.
The ministers looked at each other in blank dismay. They had been immersed in the officialdom for many years, but they had already heard what Taiwei Tiemu meant, and they knew the truth about it.
It's just that they didn't expect that King Dalbe would be so serious that he wouldn't leave the slightest chance of being criticized.
The guard came back quickly, and pushed the frightened maid into the hall, "Go in!"
Since the maid was caught last night, she was so frightened that she lost seven souls. Seeing Dalbe's majestic gaze, she trembled even more and kowtowed desperately, "King, these are all iron kites. Miss instructed, you can blame her if you want, it really has nothing to do with me! I beg the king to spare my life, I will never dare to do it again next time!"
"Don't be afraid, I want you to explain clearly what happened yesterday in front of all the ministers." Dalbe said in a deep voice, clasping Lu Huier's hand tightly with his big hands.
This time, he wanted to let all the ministers know what happened last night!
What's more, he must let his beloved woman know that he is indeed innocent, and he never touched Tie Yuan with half a finger!
"Yes, yes." The maid didn't dare to lie at all, and said the truth with her shoulders trembling, "Yesterday I went to make coffee for the king, Miss Tie Yuan found me, gave me a bag of gold, and asked me to put medicine in her coffee, Serve it to the king."
As soon as the maid's words came out, the ministers gasped at the same time. Although they guessed that this matter was tricky, they didn't expect it to be so exaggerated. That Tie Yuan was simply unscrupulous!
"Nonsense!" Tie Mu was furious, and gave the maid a hard look, "Don't frame my daughter! Let me tell you, you have to be responsible for what you said!"
"Master Taiwei, what I said is true," the maid turned paler after being yelled at, and took out the bag of gold from her body and threw it under Tie Mu's feet, "You can see, these are given to me by Miss Tie Yuan." , she also said at the time that as long as she can succeed in taking the position, she will give me a lot of money."
The purse containing gold fell heavily, and Tiemu's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. He gritted his teeth and stared at the maid, "You are lying! My daughter is a talented student who returned from studying abroad, how could she do such a stupid thing? "
The maid was so frightened that she kowtowed again, "King, I was really lured by Miss Tie Yuan in this matter! Please believe me! By the way, Miss Tie Yuan served that cup of coffee. There must be something on it. Her fingerprints are easy to detect! Just take the cup..."
"Enough! You lowly bastard, don't go crazy here!" Tiemu hurriedly stopped the maid from continuing, and changed the subject, "King, it doesn't matter why this matter happened. Tell me, how can I comfort my daughter who is so sad that she is dying?"
Tiemu knew that if he continued, he would only face himself, so he simply played the bitterness card, hoping to win Dalbe's sympathy.
However, Dalbe didn't accept this at all, "Why can't you continue talking? Tie Yuan has a ulterior motive, and she dared to bribe the maid to give me medicine. Do you know that this is a crime?! Mr. Taiwei, I see that you are old and weak. Mai, I didn't want to argue with Tie Yuan at first. If you continue to confuse right and wrong, don't blame me for getting into this matter, and severely punish Tie Yuan for acting recklessly!"
Dalbe said this sentence extremely sharply, Taiwei Tiemu trembled in fright, lowered his head and dared not speak.
The rest of the ministers didn't dare to say anything more, and lowered their heads, not daring to look at Dalbe's sharp gaze.
Dalbe's sharp eyes glanced again, and then he clasped Lu Hui'er's hand and raised it in the air, "Don't mention the concubine in the harem anymore. In this king's life, there is only one queen. Step down!"
His majestic voice echoed in the hall, the ministers didn't dare to say a word, lowered their heads and retreated one after another, leaving quickly.
Lu Hui'er was always standing beside Dalbei, and it was only then that she realized that she had really misunderstood Dalbei yesterday, and shook his hand apologetically, "So you were drugged by Tie Yuan, she really has no bottom line, Why don't you tell me the truth?"
