Unparalleled Concubine

The man stepped in, shook his head and sighed: "Your Highness, you have gone too far."

Ji Zhong turned around in astonishment, only to find that Chen Ju, the Grand Duke of the Inner Palace, was standing behind him at some point.

"Grandpa, when did you arrive?"

"It's been a while."

Chen Ju glanced at Li Yan, who was covered in blood, with a flash of joy in his eyes, and then bent down towards Li Yan.

"Li Shilang, the Third Highness is ignorant and has made you suffer. The court will give you an explanation for this matter."

Li Yan glanced at Chen Ju indifferently, and the hanging heart was relieved.

He was not worried about his own life, but worried about the safety of the Chengde Emperor.

If the emperor was only slightly injured, then the Pingnan army would have to raise the flag to rebel.

But now that Chen Ju is here, it means that even if the Emperor of Chengde is not dead, he will not have a long time to live.

Chen Ju untie the rope for Li Yan himself.

Li Yan had wounds all over his body, and he had long lost his strength. As soon as the rope was loosened, he collapsed to the ground.

Li Yan, who was sitting on the ground, looked up at Chen Ju, and said respectfully, "Grandpa, how is your majesty?"

Chen Ju squinted his eyes and said, "It's just a minor injury. It will be fine after a few days of recuperation. There is nothing serious."

Li Yanchang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's fine if there's nothing to do, it's fine if there's nothing to do, please tell your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with Li Yan or the Pingnan Hou Mansion, it's all Li Ji's random pursuit bite!"

Chen Ju glanced at Li Yan with a half-smile.

"Your Majesty knows what Li Shilang said, otherwise His Majesty would not let our family come and let Li Shilang go out."

"Li Shilang, do you think so?"

Chapter 231 You are stepping on their tails

The third prince, Ji Zhong, was a little anxious. He led Chen Ju to the side, and said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, this man has a very important role in this assassination. Don't let him go easily!"

The gray-haired Chen Ju glanced back at Ji Zhong, shook his head and sighed.

"Your Highness, you know the old slave. The old slave never goes out of the palace, nor does he interfere with the affairs of the court."

What the great eunuch meant by saying this was that he was appointed by someone, and in the entire Jin Dynasty, there was only one person who could instruct and move this grand duke.

Ji Chong's body shook: "Father is awake?"

Chen Ju glanced at the third prince indifferently, and said indifferently: "Your Highness, Your Majesty said that you have no rules and don't follow the rules. This is a very bad thing."

"No matter what Li Yan said, he is also a third-rank official of the imperial court. According to the rules, even if you want to arrest someone, you have to go through His Majesty or the Shangshutai first. Before someone is convicted and deprived of his official status, he cannot be executed privately."

Chen Ju glanced at Li Yan who was still sitting on the ground in the distance, and said quietly: "He has not been convicted yet, but he is still the Minister of the Ministry of War. If you use lynching to beat a minister of the Ministry of War into this state, where is the face of the Sixth Ministry? Where is the face of the three provinces?"

Civil servants like to report to the group.

Moreover, what these people pay attention to most is the rules, especially the rules that are beneficial to them. For example, the "Protection of Scholars and Officials" regulations of the Jin Dynasty, those civil officials must swear to protect them no matter what.

Because no matter what crimes Li Yan has committed, he is still the Minister of the Ministry of War. Your Ji family can beat a Minister of the Ministry of War without going through any procedures, and tomorrow you can kill the Minister of the Six Departments and the Minister of the Three Provinces without any explanation!

No one knows if this kind of thing will fall on their own head.

Ji Chong gritted her teeth, and snorted, "Grand Duke, these people murdered the emperor. As a son of man, I really can't take care of much."

Chen Ju shook his head: "Your Highness is true as a son of man, but at the same time he is also a prince, the son of the royal family. His highness beat Li Yanyi here today, and the anger in his heart has disappeared, but have you ever thought about how to deal with those people?" The impeachment of civil servants?"

Ji Chong glared and said, "They dare!"

"This matter involves the royal father. Could it be that the life of the royal father is not as good as that of Li Yan?"

"Of course they dare."

Chen Ju shook his head and sighed: "Your Highness, just wait and see, at most tomorrow, the memorials like snowflakes will be reported to the Shangshutai, and they want to join you in destroying the ancestor's testimonials."

Chen Ju shook his head, turned around and walked to Li Yan's place.

"Your Highness, you are stepping on their tails."

Originally, Ji Chong was the prince, and those civil servants would not dare to sue him, but after they were stepped on their tails, they would not pay so much attention to the distinction between top and bottom.

This is what Li Yan said just now, and there will be people who don't behave well to Ji Zhong.

At this time, Li Yan was still sitting slumped on the ground, gasping for breath to relieve the pain all over his body. Chen Ju squatted down and sighed: "Li Shilang, your highness is still young, and he is too reckless. Don't mind it." .”

Li Yan grinned: "As long as His Majesty is safe and sound, it doesn't matter for us courtiers to suffer some grievances."

Chen Ju nodded: "Can Li Shilang still stand up?"

Li Yan smiled wryly and shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't happen."

"Then our family will send someone to send Li Shilang back to Pingnanhou Mansion?"

The right servant of the Ministry of War shook his head: "It is enough for the Grand Duke to let someone inform the Pingnan Hou Mansion."

Chen Ju nodded and stood up: "I have wronged Li Shilang."

After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Li Yan sat on the ground unable to move, he turned his head to look at the third prince Ji Zhong with some difficulty, and smiled: "Your Highness, do you still want me to draw a bet now?"

Veins popped out on Ji Zhong's forehead, he snorted angrily, shook his sleeves and left.

………………………………

The news that the emperor was safe spread quickly throughout the capital,

After hearing the news, the entire court was quite excited.

Everyone knew that the emperor of Chengde could not die at this time. If the emperor of Chengde died, the chaos in the capital without the heir would be a trivial matter, and there would even be a few princes working independently, thus setting off a civil war.

It's just that although there was news from the palace, the Chengde Emperor still did not appear in front of anyone, and all government affairs in the court were handed over to the three provinces and six ministries for joint handling.

Even the seventh prince, Ji Wen, who had been guarding the gate of Changle Palace for two or three days, was persuaded by Chen Ju to go back to the mansion, but failed to meet Emperor Chengde.

After the Seventh Prince left the palace, he was a little confused. He sat in his carriage, frowning slightly.

"Go to Datongfang."

In Princess Qinghe's mansion in Datongfang, Li Xin could barely walk around, but his chest was still a little tight, and the wound on his back was still hurting all the time.
