Unparalleled Concubine

In the past few days, he didn't have to go to Habayashiwei to work, and he was much more relaxed, and he was able to calm down and think about things. The turbulent situation in the capital gradually became clearer in his mind.

While he was recovering from his injuries, the news from Prince Wei's Mansion was first sent to Ninth Princess Ji Lingxiu, and then Ji Lingxiu chattered to Li Xin. After coming and going, the relationship between the two became closer.

But in the past few days, the Ninth Princess was not in a good mood, after all her father and the "chef" were both injured.

It was already late at night when His Royal Highness King Wei came to the door. Li Xin was already lying on the bed. After being woken up, he came out wearing a piece of clothing.

At this moment, the Seventh Prince's eyes were bloodshot and his complexion was not very good-looking. In the past few days, he stayed in the palace early and late, and basically did not have much rest.

Li Xin reluctantly poured him a cup of tea, and said slowly, "Is there any movement in the palace?"

The Seventh Prince nodded, and said: "There is news from the palace that the father is only slightly injured, and now there is nothing serious, as long as he rests for a period of time, he will be cured."

"Who said that?"

"Several imperial physicians."

His Royal Highness King Wei picked up the tea, took a sip, and continued, "But Father still hasn't seen anyone. I was guarding the gate of Changle Palace, but I couldn't see him."

Li Xin slowly sat on the chair, the pain from the knife wound on his back made him frown slightly.

"Is there any other news?"

The Seventh Prince shook his head: "The court has not yet decided how to deal with this assassination case, but today the third brother arrested Li Yan and beat him up in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Li Yan was released."

Speaking of this, the Seventh Prince smiled slightly: "It is said that Li Yan was beaten dozens of times by the third brother, and when he was picked up by the people of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, there was not much good meat left on his body. Brother Xin, it is his retribution to suffer this kind of pain at this time."

Li Xin frowned.

Chen Ju is the confidant of the Emperor Chengde, and Chen Ju's release is equivalent to the release of the Emperor Chengde.

That is to say, in this case, the imperial court will probably find Li Ji.

But it doesn't make sense, the Pingnan Hou Mansion has done such a big thing against the sky, there is no reason for the Holy Son of Heaven to continue to tolerate them...

Even if he was afraid of Li Shen, he wouldn't be afraid to such an extent!

Li Xin frowned, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

His face changed slightly, and he slowly looked at the Seventh Prince.

"Your Highness, in the capital...something might happen!"

Chapter 232 The Emperor's Revenge!

"I feel it too."

His Royal Highness King Wei narrowed his eyes and said.

"That day in Beishan, the few of us saw it with our own eyes. The emperor's injury was definitely not a minor injury. He would have to recuperate for at least a year and a half to recover. With this level of assassination, the emperor will never let it go easily... "

"But father, he did just that."

The Seventh Prince exhaled slowly, with a trembling sound in his voice: "There must be something strange in this."

He has vaguely guessed some clues.

The Emperor Chengde originally had enough energy to deal with Southern Xinjiang, and now he has enough reasons to turn against Nanjiang, but he just endured it, which means that the current Emperor Chengde may have lost the ability to deal with Southern Xinjiang.

The power of the imperial court has not changed, but the power of Emperor Chengde has changed, that is, something is wrong with his body.

Li Xin coughed, covered his chest, and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty may not be long..."

Emperor Chengde's physical condition, until now no one dared to speak out, inside and outside the palace, including those imperial physicians, were silent about it, but now, because of some small details, not only Li Yan, the Minister of War, but also Li Xin and the Seventh Prince , have guessed the general condition of his body.

Li Xin exhaled slowly, and said, "Your Highness, our critical moment has arrived."

The Seventh Prince lowered his head, and after thinking for a long time, he whispered, "What should we do now?"

"Let's just wait and see what happens."

After coughing, Li Xin said, "Your Majesty is probably just…seriously injured, otherwise he wouldn't hide from His Highness and the other three princes. At this time, His Highness just needs to visit the palace every day and do his own thing well."

"The more it is at this time, the more you can't be impatient. Your Highness will pretend not to know about this matter, and do things for the court when he should do things for the court."

The Seventh Prince took a deep breath and said, "What brother Xin said is true."

It is now the middle of August in Chengde's 18th year.

The Chengde Dynasty, which had been peaceful for 19 years, began to become turbulent.

The two young men in Princess Qinghe's mansion were inevitably agitated.

The throne, fame, and status are all in front of them.

Now it depends on whether the two of them have the ability to get it.

..........................................

After Emperor Chengde woke up, the imperial court's imperial decree for the assassination was quickly dispatched from Shangshutai.

Zhou Danian and Li Ji were undoubtedly killed by the barbarians. Among the [-] people in the Yulinwei Youying who participated in the autumn hunting, apart from the [-] people under Li Xin's command, the other [-] people also All were executed along with Li Ji.

Not only that, except for the 1000 people who originally belonged to Li Ji in the right battalion of the Habayashi Army, except for the [-] who were beheaded, the remaining [-] or [-] people were all kicked out of the Habayashi Guard, and some were assigned to The frontier troops went, and some directly dispersed and went home.

That is to say, there were originally eight battalions of captains in the Habayashi Guard, but now there are only four Habayashi Guards under Hou Jingde's command.

Habayashi Guard is personally led by the emperor, and the most important thing is loyalty. If something goes wrong, they will all be fired and recruited again.

Not only that, Habayashi Wei Zuorang general Hou Jingde and Zhonglang general Ye Lin were also frustrated by this incident, each was whipped thirty times, fined three years' salary, and cut one level of position.

After this imperial decree came down, basically all the people involved in this matter had a fate, but Li Xin was the only one left out in the imperial decree. Originally, Li Xin, as one of the parties involved, was also unforgivable, but he just By saving the emperor, he cleared himself of suspicion.

There is not a single word about Li Xin in the imperial decree, neither was he promoted nor dismissed, Li Xin seemed to be forgotten in a corner by the court.

But this is also good, he is injured now, but he can take a good rest for a while.

After the imperial decree was issued, the people of the imperial court immediately began to carry it out. Immediately, a person's head fell to the ground on the West Market Street, and there was a lot of blood in the capital for no reason.

Murders in Xishi Street cannot be seen in the palace.

At this time in Changle Palace, Emperor Chengde was snuggling up on a soft couch. After a few days of work, his body had recovered a little, and some blood could be seen on his face, but his lungs were still aching because of the internal injury.

He could barely sit up with Chen Ju's support.

At this time, the former high-spirited Emperor Chengde had disappeared, and in just a few days, he seemed to have changed from a middle-aged man in his prime to an old man in his twilight years.

This is a change in his mentality.
