Chapter 497: A Place of Romance
At this moment a cry was heard:
"Lord Mo has arrived."
Mo Li walked in with Zhao Xinjin and Zhao Qing.
Mo Li bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am back."
Emperor Gai Zhang looked at him seriously and said, "Mo Li, are you the one who started this trouble?"
Mo Li said, "I didn't start the riot, but I did participate in it."
Emperor Gai Zhang stared at the three people intently.
Zhao Xinjin bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am the one who started the trouble."
The Emperor said, "You are very brave. You admitted everything. Heshen, according to the laws of Daxuan, how should you punish him?"
Mo Li said, "He Shen is a criminal, so he shouldn't be the one to speak."
He Shen said, "Why can't I say it?"
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Now it seems, Mo Li, you are also guilty."
He Shen said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right. I think he should be allowed to commit suicide. There are some other things I dare not say."
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Tell me, are you still afraid of him?"
He Shen said, "I am not afraid of him. I think our Lord Mo has always prided himself on being an honest official. So this time, let him commit suicide in front of the crowd to appease the public anger."
Mo Li said, "Master He, you should also commit suicide."
Emperor Gai Zhang said, "Mo Li, what do you think?"
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
Emperor Gai Zhang asked him to speak.
Mo Li said, "I originally thought that I would wait for some time to clarify the matter before reporting it to the Emperor. Now it seems that if I don't let the Emperor know the truth, Jiangnan will probably be in great trouble."
Emperor Gai Zhang smiled and said, "I'd really like to hear if you have any further excuses."
Mo Li said, "Your Majesty, verbal arguments are ultimately unconvincing. It just so happens that I'm with you right now. Please allow me and you to change into ordinary clothes and accompany you on this journey."
Emperor Gai Zhang asked him where he was going.
Mo Li continued, "Please allow the emperor to lead the way."
Emperor Gai Zhang looked at He Shen and said, "Change your clothes and go with them."
Heshen said, "I obey your order."
……
The madam flattered him, "Come in, come in, come in, come in, please. Please, please, please. Come on, please. Serve the tea, please, please. Sir, you all look very noble. I am so honored that you can come to our little shop and take care of my business. I really am..."
Look at everyone.
Mo Li stood beside her and said, "Alright, alright, stop talking, stop talking. Madam, hurry up and call all the girls here. Do you see these gentlemen? Do you see them? Especially this one. Look at him, he looks so fat and bloated. Look at the clothes he's wearing. He must be a wealthy man."
The madam said "I know" twice in a row.
Mo Li covered his mouth with his hand and continued, "I'm telling you, these guys are all lustful men, leaders among the flower bushes, and the leaders of the romantic world. They've always slept with women."
The madam smiled and understood what he meant.
Mo Li continued, "Let me tell you the truth again. Don't tell anyone else. They are all high-ranking officials."
The madam said, "I know that officials are all lustful."
Mo Li continued, "So, don't think you can get rid of them by just finding one or two girls. Go and call all the girls here. Let us take a look."
The madam said, "Okay, wait."
He shouted loudly, "Come here, girls."
Emperor Gai Zhang was a little confused and asked, "Mo Li, what are you planning to do?"
Mo Li seemed not to have heard clearly and let out a cry of "ah".
Emperor Gai Zhang continued, "Ask what you want to do."
