Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 26 Kneel

Originally, although Li Xin was the son of Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, he did not have much importance in the eyes of the emperor, that is to say, whether this person was alive or dead, the Emperor Chengde did not care about it. It was because the Pingnanhou Mansion and the Jingzhao Mansion, who committed evil in the name of the emperor, sent people to protect Li Xin, and they just did it casually.

However, since Emperor Chengde intervened in this matter, it represented the will of the emperor. Even if he only sent two people to protect Li Xin symbolically, as long as the people were sent out, the people in the capital had to give the emperor face. .

   Now, the little Marquis of Pingnan Marquis Mansion seriously injured Li Xin in front of the inner guard. This kind of behavior is no different from hitting the emperor in the face.

   You must know that just two days ago, Emperor Chengde personally sent Dong Cheng, the **** of Tianmu Supervisor, to Shenyu Pingnanhou Mansion. Just two days later, Pingnanhou Mansion did such a thing!

   This is clearly against the emperor!

  Emperor Chengde put down the ancient book in his hand, glanced at the inner guard kneeling under the steps, and said indifferently: "Are you sure it is the hand of Li Chun of the Marquis of Pingnan?"

  The Chengde Emperor and the Marquis of Pingnan Li Shen were good friends. He naturally knew the name of the son of the Marquis of Pingnan. Even when Li Chun was born, the Emperor Chengde, who was still the prince at the time, held the child with his own hands.

   This tall inner guard bowed his head respectfully: "Returning to your majesty, it is the hand of the young marquis of Pingnan Houfu, and Zhou Cheng saw 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 find a doctor was called Zhou Cheng, and the one who came back to report the letter was called Sun Jing.

The two of them naturally did not see Li Chun shot and injured Li Xin with their own eyes, but in order to shirk the responsibility, they both had to bite to death. The father-in-laws who have the internal health supervision are investigated, 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 getting more and more outrageous."

The last time Pingnanhou Mansion attacked Li Xin, Emperor Chengde did not think that Pingnanhou Mansion had done anything out of the ordinary. What he did, really made the emperor a little annoyed.

   He is the Holy Son of Heaven. A word, or even a look, can control the movements in the capital, but now, he personally sent someone to warn the Marquis of Pingnan, but the people in Marquis of Pingnan ignored his words!

  Emperor Chengde slowly closed his eyes and said, "Is that Li Xin seriously injured?"

  Sun Jing knelt down on the ground, not daring to look up.

   "Go back to Your Majesty, Young Master Li Xin was hit on the head with a chair by the young marquis, and the personnel didn't wake up on the spot, and the rank and file only saw him lying in a pool of blood. As for what he is like now, the rank and file is not very clear."

  Emperor Chengde had an expressionless face and waved his hand: "Go down and bring an imperial physician from the palace to see Li Xin's injury and try his best to save his life."

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

  Sun Jing bowed respectfully.

   "Let's go now."

  After Sun Jing bent down and exited the Warm Pavilion, Emperor Chengde's face was still not very good-looking. He picked up the ancient book on the table and continued to turn it over.

   "Chen Ju, do you think this Li Chun of Pingnan Hou's mansion has acted impulsive on a whim, or is he going to rebel against me on purpose?"

Chen Ju, the **** who was the eunuch, had been standing behind Emperor Chengde, listening to the whole thing, the pale-haired **** bent over and said, "Go back to the master, this little prince of Pingnan Houfu. , is quite famous in the capital, and I have never heard of any scumbag."

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

Chen Ju shook his head and said, "This little Marquis is not a fool, so naturally he dare not rebel against His Majesty. This time, he probably didn't know that His Majesty had sent an inner guard to protect Li Xin, and secondly, it was a spur of the moment. Li Chun knows the rules very well, and he doesn't dare to disobey His Majesty."

The Chengde Emperor sneered: "I only sent an order to the Pingnan Houfu two days ago, asking them to be more peaceful. This little thing is going to cause trouble today. I don't know if it has the protection of the inner guard, can it hurt people? This time If it weren't for the inner guard, this Li Xin would not have been beaten to death by him? This mother and son are clearly arrogant and arrogant, and they don't take this emperor 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 lord said is that the Pingnanhou Mansion is indeed doing something out of the ordinary. What the lord means is... "

   Emperor Chengde grunted.

   "I'm here, waiting for that little thing from the Li family to come and apologize to me. If he doesn't give me a decent explanation, I will ask for an explanation for that Li Xin from the Marquis of Pingnan!"

  Chen Ju nodded and said respectfully, "Your Majesty said yes."

  In the high-level circles of power, there are often a set of unwritten rules. Although these rules are not on the table, everyone knows them well.

After Li Chun returned to the Pingnan Hou Mansion, he explained the situation to his mother, Mrs. Yu. Mrs. Yu slapped Li Chun severely and directly tied Li Chun with hemp rope, and then the Pingnan Hou. The manor's wife, who found out her own order, personally led her son to the gate of the imperial city to plead guilty.

On weekdays, the suave and suave young marquis of Pingnan Hou's mansion was tied firmly by his mother with hemp ropes, and then he held the young marquis with his hands. This scene was thoroughly watched by the dignitaries in Yonglefang. , Li Chun's face flushed, but he didn't dare to refute, so he could only lower his head and be led by Madam Yu honestly.

   And no matter what the result of the follow-up is, after this incident, Li Chun was in the capital and lost a lot of face.

  The princes and nobles in Yonglefang saw this scene, and they were talking about it in private.

  The mother and son knelt from the afternoon until the evening, until the sky was completely dark, the emperor still did not summon him, Madam Yu was expressionless, and still respectfully knelt at the gate of the palace.

It wasn't until around You Shi when an old **** with a slow pace walked slowly in front of the mother and son. The old **** stopped and said to Madam Yu, "Mrs. Li, Your Majesty said, it's cold at night and 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.

   "Eunuch Chen, this time the dog was framed by a villain, please let Eunuch Chen report it on your behalf. The concubine and the dog will meet with your majesty and explain the matter clearly!"

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

   Madam Yu said with tears: "Eunuch Chen, I can explain clearly to Your Majesty!"

   A faint smile appeared on Chen Ju's face.

   "Mrs. Li, it's the twelfth lunar day now. You kneel here at night. If you die, our family can't afford to suffer."

   Madam Yu looked up at Chen Ju.

   The big **** in the palace said indifferently: "Mrs. Li, this matter has nothing to do with you, you can go back first. As for the son, kneel here and kneel here, His Majesty is relieved, and naturally he will meet him."

Li Chun on the side of    also turned blue from the cold. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth: "Mother, go back quickly, my son can just kneel here alone..."
