章 542: Punishment

Shen Zhuo wanted to say something else, but the old emperor did not give him a chance to speak.

"You can leave first. I will settle this matter. I won't let you suffer this grievance for nothing."

Shen Zhuo stood up and left obediently.

Xiao Juan said, "Greetings, Your Majesty. What instructions do you have?"

The old emperor was helped to sit up.

He leaned back on the cushion and looked at Xiao Juan, who was standing upright in front of him. He asked weakly.

"Did you get someone to rehearse Duke Lang in Liaodong?"

Xiao Juan said without hesitation, "Yes."
