Unparalleled Concubine

The tall inner guard bowed his head respectfully: "Return to Your Majesty, it was the hands of the young Marquis of Pingnanhou's Mansion, and Zhou Cheng witnessed it with his own eyes."

The two inner guards were responsible for protecting Li Xin's inner guard. The one who sent Li Xinhu to the doctor was called Zhou Cheng, and the one who came back to report the letter was called Sun Jing.

Naturally, the two of them did not see Li Chun attacking and injuring Li Xin with their own eyes, but in order to shirk the responsibility, they both had to bite to death. The father-in-laws of the internal guards have pursued it, and they are not easy to explain.

Emperor Chengde's complexion became unsightly.

He snorted, and said: "Li Shen is not in the capital, his family members are becoming more and more outrageous."

The last time Pingnanhoufu attacked Li Xin, Emperor Chengde didn't feel that Pingnanhoufu did anything out of the ordinary, it was just that he shouldn't use his name of hunting in Beishan, but this time, Pingnanhoufu's What he did really annoyed the emperor a little.

He is the Holy Son of Heaven, one word, even one look, can control the movement in the capital, but now, he personally sent someone to warn Pingnanhou's Mansion, but the people of Pingnanhou's Mansion ignored his words!

Emperor Chengde slowly closed his eyes, and said, "That Li Xin, is he seriously injured?"

Sun Jing knelt down on the ground, not daring to raise his head.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Mr. Li Xin was hit on the head by the young master with a chair. He was unconscious on the spot, and the junior officer only saw him lying in a pool of blood. As for what he looks like now, the junior officer is not very clear."

Emperor Chengde showed no expression on his face, and waved his hands: "Go down, bring an imperial doctor from the palace, show Li Xin's wounds, and try to save his life."

After all, Li Xin was also Li Shen's son, and Emperor Chengde liked Li Shen, an old friend of his latent residence, so he didn't want Li Xin to die like this.

Sun Jing kowtowed respectfully.

"Humble job, let's go."

After Sun Jing stooped out of the warm pavilion, Emperor Chengde's face was still not very good-looking. He picked up the ancient books on the table and continued to flip through them.

"Chen Ju, do you think this Li Chun of the Pingnanhou's Mansion committed a crime on impulse, or is he deliberately disobeying my will?"

Chen Ju, the chief eunuch of the inner servant, had been standing behind the Emperor Chengde and heard the whole thing in his ears. The pale-haired chief eunuch bent down and said, "Back to the master, this little prince of the Pingnan Houfu , quite well-known in the capital, I have never heard of such a muddy person."

Emperor Chengde said displeased: "You mean, he deliberately disobeyed me?"

Chen Ju shook his head and said: "This young master is not a fool, so naturally he dare not disobey His Majesty. This time, he probably didn't know that His Majesty sent internal guards to protect Li Xin, and secondly, it was impulsive. Knowing the rules very well, Li Chun will not, and dare not disobey His Majesty."

Emperor Chengde sneered: "I just delivered a verbal order to Pingnan Hou Mansion two days ago, telling them to be more peaceful. This little thing will come out to cause trouble today. I don't know if there are internal guards to protect him, can he hurt people with his hands? This time If it wasn't for the inner guards following him, wouldn't this Li Xin have been beaten to death by him? The mother and son are obviously arrogant because they are favored, and they don't take the Son of Heaven seriously!"

Having said that, even Chen Ju, the great eunuch, did not dare to speak for the Pingnanhou Mansion, he lowered his head and said: "What the master said is that the Pingnanhou Mansion did something out of line, what the master means is... ..."

Emperor Chengde snorted.

"I'm right here, waiting for that little guy from the Li family to come to plead guilty to me. If he doesn't give me a decent explanation, I will ask for an explanation for that Li Xin and Pingnanhou's residence!"

Chen Ju nodded, respectfully said: "Your Majesty is right."

In the high-level circle of power, there is often a set of unwritten rules. Although these rules cannot be put on the table, everyone knows it well.

After Li Chun returned to Pingnanhou's mansion, he explained the situation to his mother, Mrs. Yu. Mrs. Yu slapped Li Chun twice, and directly tied Li Chun up with hemp rope. The wife of the mansion found out her life uniform, and personally led her son to the gate of the imperial city to plead guilty.

On weekdays, the suave young master of the Pingnan Hou Mansion was tied tightly by his mother with hemp rope, and then he held the little prince by the hand. This scene was completely seen by the dignitaries in Yonglefang , Li Chun's face turned red, but he didn't dare to refute, so he could only lower his head, and was honestly led by Madam Yu. After more than half an hour, the mother and son knelt at the gate of the imperial city, kowtowing to plead guilty.

Regardless of the outcome of the subsequent handling of this incident, after this incident, Li Chun was considered to be in the capital and lost a lot of face.

The princes and nobles in Yongle Square saw this scene, and they were discussing in private, wondering what trouble this son of the Pingnan Hou Mansion had caused.

The mother and the son knelt down from the afternoon to the evening, and when the sky was completely dark, the emperor still didn't summon her for a long time. Madam Yu remained expressionless and knelt at the gate of the palace respectfully.

It wasn't until about You hour that an old eunuch who walked slowly walked up to the mother and son. The old eunuch stopped and said to Madam Yu: "Madam Li, Your Majesty said that it is cold at night and it is easy It's freezing, you can go back."

Madam Yu looked up at the old eunuch, still kneeling on the ground, her cold teeth chattering.

"Chen Eunuch, this time the dog was framed by a villain, please Chen Eunuch to inform on your behalf, the concubine and the dog will meet with His Majesty, and explain the matter clearly!"

The person who came was Chen Ju, the great eunuch in the palace. The old eunuch bent over and said slowly, "Your Majesty is very angry about this matter..."

Madam Yu wept and said: "Eunuch Chen, I can explain myself clearly to Your Majesty!"

A faint smile appeared on Chen Ju's face.

"Mrs. Li, it's the twelfth lunar month. If you kneel here at night, if someone dies, our family can't afford it."

Madam Yu looked up at Chen Ju.

The eunuch in the palace said indifferently: "Mrs. Li, this matter has nothing to do with you. You can go back first. As for Mr. Ling, kneel here and kneel here. Your Majesty calmed down and will naturally meet him."

Li Chun on the side also turned blue from the cold, he lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, you go back quickly, my son will just kneel here alone..."

Chapter 27 Li Xin's Injury

While Li Chun was kneeling and suffering in the cold winter night, Li Xin on the other side also woke up from his lethargy.

He didn't actually pass out.

When he hit himself, he was very particular. If he hit himself straight on the forehead, he might turn himself into a fool, or even endanger his life, but as long as he slammed it obliquely and with a little effort, the result would generally be a stroke. Breaking the skin and bleeding a little more, it can only be regarded as a skin trauma.

In order to bleed, he also deliberately used the sharp part of the chair to cut a long cut on his forehead, so that he bleed all over the ground, so that when Sun Jing, the inner guard, entered the palace to answer, he said, "I don't know if I live or die." ".

In fact, all animals, including humans, need a lot of courage to hurt themselves. If Li Chun hadn't completely angered Li Xin, he would not have smashed his own head.

At that time, he really had no choice but to use this extreme method to take revenge on the Pingnanhou Mansion. Apart from that, with Li Xin's current capital, there was no way he could hurt the little lord of the Pingnanhou Mansion. .

After Li Xin was carried out by inner guard Zhou Cheng from the Ningcui Building, Li Xin was carried into a medical clinic. The doctor briefly checked Li Xin's injuries, shook his head and sighed, and briefly helped Li Xin clean the wound and sprinkled Some wound medicines went up, a simple bandage was done, and some medicines for nourishing qi and blood were prescribed.

In this era, there are no instruments of later generations. It is generally difficult to distinguish the degree of injury. For example, Li Xin, with blood all over his head and face, looks quite scary. The doctor will naturally not say that he The injury was minor.

Moreover, in this era, there is no suture technique of later generations. No matter how serious your injury is, you can only recover slowly with your own healing ability. Therefore, the treatment methods of doctors are generally similar.

Later, when Sun Jing led the imperial physician to treat Li Xin's injuries, he did the same thing.

If there is any difference, it is that the medicine applied to the wound may be different.

Together with the doctors in the medical clinic, the imperial physician spent a long time around Li Xin. Because he was a little sleepy, he simply closed his eyes and fell asleep. When it was dark, he "woke up leisurely" and opened his eyes. He sneaked a look at Zhou Cheng, who was guarding beside him, and coughed lightly.

Zhou Cheng and Sun Jing, who were standing by the side, were overjoyed when they heard the movement, and hurried to Li Xin's side, letting out a sigh of relief.

"Young Master Li, you are finally awake."

The two of them were ordered by God to protect Li Xin. If Li Xin had any mishaps, they would both be punished when they returned to the inner guard camp. Now that Li Xin has woken up, that means there will be no major incidents. Even if he and Sun Jing were responsible, they would not be punished too severely.

Li Xin looked around pretendingly, and said, "Both... elder brother, where is this place?"

Zhou Cheng said, "This is the Zheng's Medical Clinic in Nanshi Street. During the day, Mr. Li was...fighting with others and accidentally got injured. I brought Mr. Li here to treat his injuries."

Although Li Xin is pretending to be unconscious, the wound on his forehead is serious, and there will be faint pain when he moves at this time. Li Xin frowned, sat up reluctantly, and pointed at Zhou Cheng. Nodded: "Thank you, big brother."

Zhou Cheng shook his head again and again: "Young Master Li, we were originally ordered by His Majesty to protect you secretly. It was the two of us who failed to protect you, which caused you to be hurt like this. Don't blame us, young master..."
