The palace buildings of the Sui and Tang dynasties, which are both functional and safe, and at the same time rich in a sense of ceremony, are often based on one or more palaces as the core building, surrounded by ancillary buildings such as corridors, pavilions, and chambers, etc., such a building cluster is called a courtyard.

Since Shangguan Wan'er relayed the Divine Emperor's dictation, the Di clan also had a difficulty in her heart, knowing that this errand was not easy to handle, but it was also difficult to delay. After thinking about it for a long time, he chose to arrange the Yongwang family in Renzhi Hospital.

Renzhiyuan is located in the northeast of the west of the city, and in the old years, the emperor was stationed in Luoyang, and often placed a group of palace doctors here, so as to educate the children of the emperor nearby, and the emperor also often came to the Renzhi Hall in the courtyard to ask the children of the school to study their homework. It's just that after the emperor Bintian, this palace has been uninhabited for a long time, so it has been slightly deserted.

The reason why the Di clan chose to settle the Yongwang family here is mainly because Renzhiyuan is adjacent to the Qianbu Pavilion in the west, and the Qianbu Pavilion leads to the Guiyi Gate of the city, and the Guiyi Gate is the subsidiary gateway of the Xuanwu Gate of the North Gate of the Great Inner City, which together constitute the northern defense system of the palace.

Qianbu Pavilion was built by Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty in the past, higher than the surrounding courtyard, self-contained, originally as a place for the guards to enter the direct ban, to monitor the palace changes, after entering the Tang Dynasty, one should be the cause. In other words, if the Yongwang family is placed in Renzhiyuan, then their daily life and every move will be under the supervision of the Xuanwu City Guards who are on duty in the Thousand Step Pavilion.

Li Tong naturally didn't know about many of these considerations, and even if he knew, it would only add to his troubles. But all that aside, the living environment of Renzhiin was much better than the dark and damp back corridor of the five halls of the city where he was before.

To the south of this house is the famous Jiuzhou Pond in later generations, the cool breeze on the pond blows slowly, mixed with the fragrance of birds and flowers, and it is also a beautiful scenery of the Imperial Garden, which makes people feel refreshed and feel much better.

When Li Tong and the others arrived, other relevant people had already come here first.

Some simple palace maids are busy cleaning pavilions and corridors, and there is a curved water nullah introduced into the courtyard in Jiuzhou Pond, because of negligence in cleaning and silting, making the water flow turbid, and breeding many mosquitoes. At present, there are palace maids who use bamboo hooks and vines to hook out the rotten branches and leaves, dredge the channels, and transplant some cattails, green wormwoods and other aquatic plants that can not only beautify the environment but also repel mosquitoes.

When Li Tong walked through here, those busy palace maids also peeked at him with curious and fearful eyes, obviously they had also heard about the strange things that happened to this young county king.

Li Tong was not in the mood to break the superstition with those palace maids at this time, and his mood was a little apprehensive, because after all, he was about to meet the so-called family members. He is wearing the skin of the young Li Shouyi, but he has changed another soul inside, and how to get along with his family in this life is also a big test for him.

When he entered the hospital, he saw a large wall, and after bypassing the wall, Li Tong saw many people scattered in the court. Before he could carefully identify the appearance of those people, Zheng Jin, the woman who had returned with him, was already excited and said loudly: "Xiao Langjun is back, Xiao Langjun is back!" ”

Everyone's eyes were attracted, Li Tongzheng was not lacking in crampedness and wanted to squeeze out a smile, a young man had already walked over, the young man looked about the same age as Li Shouyi, but his body was taller.

The young man was wearing a bearded robe with lapels, the corners of the robe were tucked up at the waistband, revealing purple robes, Persian trousers with fat trouser legs, and the soap gauze head was slightly tilted on the top, revealing a sense of restlessness all over his body.

At the moment, his face was full of anger, and as he walked, he pointed at Li Tong and shouted: "It was just a coincidence that Xunnu came back, do you know that Niangniang was injured by the palace slave?" The eldest brother is too cowardly to seek revenge with me, I have prepared the stick, do you have the courage to go with me to the rod to blame my mother's palace slave? ”

Hearing the young man's shouting, combined with the memories that came to his mind, Li Tong recognized that the anxious and angry young man in front of him was his second brother, so the second son of the crown prince Li Xian was also the heir to the title of King Yong, Li Shouli.

Li Tong didn't respond to Li Shouli immediately, but just looked at the restless young man and was slightly distracted.

Li Xian left three sons, in addition to the youngest son Li Shouyi, who died early and was replaced by himself, there is also the eldest son Li Guangshun and the heir Li Shouli. Among them, Li Guangshun was whipped to death by cool officials in the first year of the Wuzhou Revolution, and only his heir Li Shouli survived this long and cruel torture, but also suffered a lifetime of injuries due to this perennial confinement life.

Li Tong was so distracted, because the impetuous young man in front of him was slightly inconsistent with the impression he imagined of enduring humiliation and burden, and stealing his life, and there was no historical record that he cried in front of Xuanzong and complained that he was sick due to punishment.

Where did Li Shouli know what Li Tong was thinking at the moment, he stepped forward and wanted to hook his shoulders to hug his younger brother, but Zheng Jin, who was eager to protect the calf, pulled Li Tong behind him, waved his hand and said: "The king is slower, Xiao Langjun is seriously ill and injured, but now he is very weak!" ”

"Sunnu, are you sick? Is it serious? ”

When Li Shouli heard this, the anger on his face subsided slightly, and his expression changed to concern, he looked Li Tong up and down a few times, then stroked his back and said: "Come on, you quickly return to the room to recuperate and help me take care of my mother, I will seek revenge!" ”

He was also detained from elsewhere, and had just been sent to Renzhi Hospital, when he saw his mother-in-law Fang's injuries, his heart was already furious, and he rushed out of the door to shout for revenge despite Fang's drinking, not to mention that his younger brother Li Shouyi was already a demonic person who had come back from the dead.

As he spoke, Li Shouli had already turned to the courtyard gate with his head held high, and took out two bamboo canes from under the porch, which seemed to be tools used by the maids in the outer palace, and he was about to go out with his armpits, looking like he was not stingy.

Li Tong reacted at this time, and just as he was about to open his mouth to shout to stop, another woman's rather poignant scream sounded in his ears: "How long will the king be willful?" Are you deeply afraid that my family's disaster is not deep, and you will invite disasters, and you will not give up until you die? ”

When Li Shouli heard this cry, his body stiffened, and he turned around with a look of grievance and resentment.

Li Tong followed the prestige, only to see a pale plain skirt woman standing under the corridor, the woman clapped the bar with one hand and pointed at Li Shouli with the other halberd, her haggard face looked a little hideous because of anger, a gritted tooth, angry look, and the background color was full of fear.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Tong remembered that this woman Zhang was also one of his father's concubines Li Xian, called Zhang Liangyuan, who was Li Shouli's biological mother. Later generations will be recorded as Zhang Liangdi, and it will be posthumously gifted.

was stopped by his biological mother's painful shouting, Li Shouli suddenly fell into despair, and lowered his head and said: "Where is the son, is it willful, it's just that the mother was killed......

After Zhang Liangyuan stopped Li Shouli, he didn't listen to his explanation, his expression swept at everyone present, and his eyes became more complicated after staying on Li Tong for a while, and then raised his hand to hide his face and retreated into a house that had been cleaned out and closed the door.

Li Tong glanced at the embarrassed and aggrieved Li Shouli, and sighed faintly in his heart, this is his brother in this life, or he has not been cruelly worn away by the more difficult life in the future, and he does not realize that his small ability is not enough to protect his family, and he still has a pure thought, which is sympathetic and regrettable.

"Brother, don't be dry, my mother is injured because I'm tired, not because of others."

Li Tong stepped forward and took the bamboo cane under Li Shouli's armpit, although he was completely awkward to call a young man who was much younger than him in his actual age, but he couldn't find any better name at the moment.

When Li Shouli heard this, he was about to ask a question, and another woman came out of the corridor door of the courtyard and greeted him loudly: "The concubine invites Shangguan Cairen to come in, and the two Langjun enter together." ”

Shangguan Wan'er took a few female histories to the house, and Li Tong also pulled up Li Shouli, who was obviously half a beat slower, and stepped forward together.

The main residence of the courtyard is transparent and spacious, but after entering it, Li Tong still smells a very strong smell of medicine. He remembered Fang's injuries a lot, and he bypassed the barrier and hurried inside.

The interior layout is simple, Fang's has already stood up under the support of the palace maid, and after she wandered her eyes for a moment and saw Li Shouli and Li Tong, she was obviously relieved, and made a salute to Shangguan Wan'er with some difficulty, and praised in her mouth: "Thank you for your righteous words, so that my mother and son can forgive the Queen Mother......"

Shangguan Wan'er naturally didn't dare to accept the courtesy, so she hurriedly took two steps to hold Fang Shi and hurriedly said: "The concubine is serious, although the dust is disturbed for a while, but the jade quality is difficult to deceive after all." This time, the clouds are turning cloudy, it is the queen mother's royal view, grace and protection, concubines and others are bowing and walking, how dare you take credit! ”

Fang's did not put away her gratitude, she grabbed Shangguan Wan'er tightly and turned her head and said: "You three sons should not be idle, the Queen Mother does not dare to disturb lightly, first thank Ende and then thank Cairen Huiyi." ”

Hearing this, Li Tong found that there was another young man standing in the corner of the room where the palace maids were standing, it was Li Guangshun, the eldest brother in the memory of the young Li Shouyi. Compared with the slightly impetuous Li Shouli, Li Guangshun is much quieter, his appearance and temperament are lacking, and he stands there so silently that people can't notice it.

But after Fang's order, Li Guang walked to the middle of the room by the way, stood on Li Shouli's left side, and threw a look full of concern at Li Tong, and then pulled the corner of Li Shouli's clothes, who seemed to be still ignorant, and made a gesture of saluting.

After that, the three of them went down the corridor in parallel, and under the guidance of the eldest brother Li Guangshun, they bowed again in the direction of Shangyang Palace. Originally, Li Tong was worried that he lacked the etiquette of the ancients, but when he saw Li Shouli's strange posture of pouting his ass and stumbling, he felt more and more that this heir King Yong should most likely be a living treasure.

After returning to the room, Li Guang took the initiative to take a step forward and bowed to Shangguan Wan'er in front of Li Shouli. Before worshipping Shangyang Palace, it was a minister to thank Jun, so he wanted Li Shouli, the heir of the king's family, to be in front. But now thanking Shangguan Wan'er is a bit of a sense of respect and humility, so Li Guangshun has a bit of a taste of saluting in front of him.

Seeing Li Guangshun's grasp of this detail, Li Tong couldn't help but suspect in his heart, although the contact was short, he could see that the family was handed over to Li Guangshun's leadership, how could it be more reliable than Li Shouli, but why did Li Shouli inherit the title of his father King Yong?
