In the past, every time his uncle committed a crime, the emperor would turn a blind eye on account of the empress dowager.
But this time, things were different.
His uncle actually had designs on him.
His uncle dared to hurt his consort, so who knew how arrogant he usually was?
Therefore, this time, the emperor decided to teach his uncle a lesson.
"Mother, I can not announce what Uncle has committed this time. It's just that I have to teach him a lesson. I remember that there are many places in Sichuan that need to be explored and opened up. Why don't I let Uncle go over and open up the mountains?! Since Uncle committed a crime, he has to abide by the rules there. I'll specifically remind the people there not to let Uncle have the chance to slack off!"
The empress dowager was surprised to hear that.
"Son! No matter what, he's your uncle! You can't treat him like this!"
