Chapter 5: Bombshell
Zhou Guogong's Mansion, Wu Minzhi at this time can be described as extremely miserable, lying motionless on the bed with medicine and bandages on his limbs and torso in several places. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
If it weren't for hearing Wu Minzhi's occasional gasp, he would have thought it was a dead man.
After treating Wu Minzhi's wounds, looking at his face, the doctor in his forties packed up his medicine box, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked out of the room a little tired.
Wu Minzhi's wife, Yang, who had been waiting anxiously outside for two hours, hurriedly stepped forward to ask when the doctor came out, "Doctor, how is my husband's injury?" ”
"Hey, madam, Gui Xun's life is worry-free, but the injury is a little serious. Several ribs in one of Guiyang's hands have been discounted, and the old man has also tried his best, whether he can connect the bones without crippling it depends on the will of God. ”
The old doctor shook his head, it was really hard to say whether the broken bones could be connected.
"How can you be so badly injured...... Yang panicked now, if the husband is crippled, how will he raise his head and be a man in the future?
"Doctor, you are a well-known doctor in Chang'an who treats bruises and broken bones, you must cure my husband, whatever you need, I can give you the Zhou Guogong Mansion."
Yang had no choice but to beg the doctor in front of him, because Chang'an really has no higher medical skills than this doctor except for the Imperial Doctor's Department, but how could she be a little woman who had the right to ask the imperial doctor of the Imperial Doctor's Department.
The old doctor was also worried, and in the face of the Duchess's request, he could only reply helplessly and carefully: "Madam, the old man has already said that if Ling Xun wants to recover, he can only look at the will of God, and what the old man is doing now can only try to increase the possibility of Ling Xun's broken bones being successfully reconnected." ”
"Hey, maybe this is the fate of the husband!" Yang's eyes were red, and seeing that the doctor had said it so clearly, he sighed bitterly: "There is Doctor Lao, Xiaopu will send the doctor for me." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
"Old man farewell!" After the old doctor bowed, he left the Zhou Mansion under the guidance of Xiaopu.
Yang came to Wu Minzhi's bed, looked at his husband who was covered in injuries and had fallen into a coma, and couldn't help crying sadly for a while.
"Boom...... It's just that you're usually out and about, but why did you provoke the prospective crown princess? Still want to rape? Don't you know that this will anger the two saints and bring disaster to our family? If you die, leave our mother and son, how can we live? Woohoo......"
Yang couldn't stop sobbing in front of the bed to her husband, wiping her tears and whispering accusations.
is a woman with a weak personality and no opinions, otherwise she wouldn't be able to control her husband from messing with flowers outside, but she can only endure it silently at home.
"The slave maid visits Mrs. Rongguo." The maid who was guarding outside the room hurriedly saluted when she saw Mrs. Rongguo coming.
Yang heard the voice and looked up from the bed to the door, and it was his maternal grandmother, Mrs. Rongguo. Hurriedly stood up and wiped the tears from his face, packed up and saluted his grandmother, "My granddaughter has seen my grandmother." ”
Mrs. Rongguo ignored her granddaughter-in-law's courtesy, and came to Wu Minzhi's bed in a hurry.
looked at his grandson who was lying unconscious on the bed in front of him, with bandages wrapped in several places on his body and exuding an unpleasant smell of medicine.
The psychology is like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, is this still my handsome and dashing grandson?
As her old hands trembled and stroked Wu Minzhi's bruised and swollen face, she couldn't see her original appearance, and Mrs. Rongguo's eyes were confused with tears.
"Minyang, why are you hurt like this?" Seeing that her beloved grandson was beaten unconscious, Mrs. Rongguo was sometimes sad and sometimes angry with old tears.
She was angry that Li Yu actually beat her cousin for a woman who had not yet become the daughter-in-law of the Li family, did he take his grandmother in his eyes?
"Grandmother doesn't have to worry too much, after being treated by the doctor, the husband will recover in a few days!"
Yang secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and persuaded his grandmother, who was in grief. After all, my grandmother was already 90 years old, and she was afraid that she would be sad and hurt herself, so she told her husband's injury against her will.
"You don't have to persuade the old body, you can't see how heavy Minyang's injury is when I'm old?" Mrs. Rongguo was angry in her heart, Li Yu was vicious, and she was angry, and she choked without appreciation for her daughter-in-law's persuasion.
"Grandmother ......" Yang originally had good intentions to persuade but didn't want to be choked back by his grandmother, so he stood aside with tears in his eyes.
Mrs. Rongguo looked at her unconscious Aison, tears of sorrow and anger. Okay, you Li Yu, after staying in Youzhou for a year, don't you take my old bones in your eyes?
"Sun Erniang." Mrs. Rongguo called her personal servant with a gloomy face.
"Ma'am." Hearing Mrs. calling for herself, Sun Erniang, who was waiting outside the door, immediately entered the house, saw Mrs. 's ugly face, and said in her heart that this matter was a big deal today.
"Go to the Yanwang Mansion and call Li Yu to me."
"No." After Sun Erniang received the order, she left the Zhou Guogong Mansion and went to the Yan Wang's Mansion, but she was very skeptical about whether she could call the Yan King.
"Stop, this is the Yanwang Mansion, don't let the idle people and others break in."
Sun Erniang came to Yanwang's Mansion and was about to go in, but was stopped by the guards guarding the door.
"A certain is Mrs. Rongguo's servant, and I came to invite King Yan to the Duke of Zhou's mansion on the order of Mrs. Rongguo."
"Your Highness is not in the mansion when you go hunting on the outskirts of the city today, please go back." The guards refused Sun Erniang without going to report.
Sure enough, Sun Erniang thought silently in her heart.
As Mrs. Rongguo's family servant, Sun Erniang has served Mrs. Rongguo since she was a child, and she has had a lot of contact with the temperament of several princes, and she has also figured out the temperament of the five brothers.
Regarding the matter of King Yan beating Wu Minzhi, King Yan must have guessed that his wife would severely reprimand him, and he would definitely not go to see his wife. Hunt? It's just a pretext.
Sun Erniang had no choice but to go back to her wife first.
Hearing that Sun Erniang came back to report that King Yan was no longer in the mansion, Mrs. Rongguo had a calm face and didn't know what she was thinking, and Yang stood aside in cringe, not knowing what to do.
"Prepare the car, I want to enter the palace to see Erniang." Mrs. Rongguo got up, walked out of the Zhou Guogong Mansion with slightly red eyes and no color on her face, got into the carriage and drove in the direction of Daming Palace.
In the Hanliang Palace, Empress Wu persuaded her with good words, and sent several famous doctors from the Imperial Doctor's Department, and even Liu Shenwei, the apprentice of Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, to send her out of the palace.
Empress Wu, who was sitting on the seat, had a cold face, and the temperature in the entire palace seemed to have dropped by a few degrees, and the palace maids stood nervously in their respective positions and did not dare to move, for fear of angering the queen's brows.
Empress Wu secretly sulked, Wu Minzhi's attempt to rape Yang Yuanniang was found by Yu'er to stop and beat Wu Minzhi, and he learned about it at lunch.
I really can't imagine that Wu Minzhi is so bold and reckless now, and he no longer takes the royal family seriously.
It's just a matter of messing with women in general, and even the crown princess he chose for Hong'er dares to it? If it weren't for taking care of his mother's feelings, Wu Minzhi would still be able to lie at home to recuperate?
The mother is also old and confused, and it has become an open secret in Chang'an City that she has fornicated with her grandchildren at a large age. You old and young have done such a ridiculous thing, where will my face be put on the queen?
Empress Wu thought for a while, and finally decided to summon Yu'er into the palace, otherwise her mother would not be able to make trouble again.
"Come on, go to King Xuanyan and enter the palace."
"No." After receiving the order, the eunuch slowly withdrew from the main hall.
If the summons of the grandmother can be avoided, then the summons of the grandmother Li Yu dare not hide from anyone.
After all, in addition to the army, Datang now relies on A-Niang's strategy in terms of national political affairs, and he will need A-Niang's help in many things in the future.
Li Yu walked into the Zichen Hall and saw A-Niang's busy figure, with thick documents from all over the country on the bookcase, and he was a little dizzy in his eyes, and his admiration for A-Niang was incomprehensible.
"The child has seen A-Niang."
Empress Wu raised her head from the paperwork, rubbed her dry eyes, and saw Yu'er's straight figure, and her tired face showed a faint smile.
"Yu'er is here, come and sit next to her mother."
A-Niang was very happy to see her coming, and her originally apprehensive heart suddenly calmed down a lot.
Li Yu knew that his grandmother had sent someone to find him in the palace after he didn't call him, and he originally thought that A-Niang would inevitably reprimand herself in order to take care of her grandmother, but now it seems that A-Niang is still protecting me.
"Okay, Auntie." Li Yu approached Ah Niang's side in a few steps, but pretended to be a little puzzled and asked, "Ah Niang, I heard the eunuch who announced the decree say that Ah Niang has something urgent to see the child?" ”
"Hey, what can you do for your mother? It's not your grandmother's business yet. Empress Wu shook her head and said with a wry smile, she was proud of her mother's spoiling of Wu Minzhi, causing him to be pampered and arrogant, and he had no scruples about doing things, except for being secretly annoyed, but he was helpless.
Li Yu naturally knew what was going on, but he was still at a loss: "What can grandmother do?" ”
"You kid beat your grandmother's heart and liver to a serious injury, and still pretend to be innocent in front of your mother?" The Empress Wu pretended to be angry and stared at Li Yu, who was pretending to be stupid, and Li Yu was very embarrassed and smiled stupidly.
"A-Niang, since you say so, you must also know the cause and effect of my beating Wu Minzhi. Wu Minzhi did such a rebellious thing as wanting to commit rape with the quasi-crown princess today, and if Nuo Zi'er didn't teach him a profound lesson, maybe one day he would do something that damaged the royal majesty. Li Yu said sonorously.
"But you beat Wu Minzhi to a serious injury, and sent someone to ask you to ask the reason, you hid and didn't see it, and your grandmother was sad and angry, and they all ran to cry for your mother. If it weren't for the kind words and persuasion of your mother, your grandmother wouldn't know how sad it was, how could her ninety-year-old body withstand the turmoil. ”
Ah Niang's soft reprimand Li Yu was a little unacceptable, and retorted: "But my grandmother favors Wu Minzhi so much, and her actions are unfair, and she doesn't take the Datang law in her eyes." ”
"Yu'er, your grandmother is very old, and she is a little inconsiderate, you are a younger generation to be more tolerant, and today's matter is over."
"Then Yang Yuanniang, what does my mother think?"
"After discussing with your father, I decided to cancel Yang Yuanniang as the crown princess and find another good partner to marry your eldest brother."
"Oh." Although Li Yu was a little disappointed on his face, he was actually happy in his heart.
Yang Yuanniang's natural appearance is not moved by her mental age in her thirties, otherwise why did she deliberately get acquainted with Yang Yuanniang when she was a few years old, she was curious at first, and now she loves her beauty.
Now this kind of ending is my favorite to see, I really want to laugh, hahaha! Ahh I am a righteous man and a gentleman, keeping in mind that "a gentleman has three precepts"
But there is one more thing that I have to mention to A-Niang when I remember: "A-Niang, does my little sister often go to visit her grandmother?" ”
"Well, why do you ask this?"
"Auntie, Wu Minzhi often stays in his grandmother's house, and when the child heard that the little sister went to visit her grandmother, Wu Minzhi forced the little sister's entourage."
"Bang."
"Is this serious?" Empress Wu directly slapped the document in her hand on the bookcase, but you can imagine her anger after hearing what Li Yu said. The palace maids and eunuchs serving in the palace were all frightened.
As the only daughter of her mother, Xiaomei can be said to be favored by her father and queen mother, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a mother's reverse scale.
Seeing A-Niang's angry eyes glaring at him, Li Yu was a little weak-hearted and nervous, and hurriedly said: "A-Niang, I just returned to Chang'an to pay New Year's greetings to my grandmother and learned from the maid in Mrs. Rongguo's mansion, it seems that it happened when my little sister went to visit after my grandmother's illness at the end of last year. ”
"Whether this matter is true or not, Ah Niang can summon the maid who went with Xiaomei last time and ask about it."
Empress Wu was annoyed, what Yu'er said was true, and immediately ordered to the palace: "Zhang Yi go and bring me all the princess's maids!" ”
"No."
The eunuch Zhang Yi, who had been serving on the side in the main hall, immediately took a group of little eunuchs to find all the maids who served beside the little princess.
After the personal interrogation of the Empress Wu, it was as Li Yu said.
At the end of last year, Mrs. Rongguo fell ill, and the princess went to visit. Wu Minzhi lived in Mrs. Rongguo's mansion at that time, and took the opportunity to force the two maids accompanying the princess.
The two maids who had been interrogated knelt in the hall in silence, looking nervous, and they did not know if the queen would put them to death for this.
"Wu Minzhi, you are really daring." Empress Wu was furious, and walked back and forth in the hall.
Li Yu, who was sitting on the side, could see that although Ah Niang was angry, she couldn't immediately deal with Wu Minzhi because of her grandmother.
But it doesn't matter, the reason why I threw this bombshell was not to kill Wu Min. As long as his grandmother is still alive, he will not die. The purpose he wants to achieve is to arouse Ah Niang's vigilance against Wu Minzhi and prevent the same thing from happening again.
There are a lot of maids accompanying Xiaomei, but fortunately, only one happened now, and only two people were forced to commit adultery by Wu Minzhi. Not like in her previous life, the maids brought by Xiaomei to visit her grandmother were all forced by Wu Minzhi, and later found out about this situation.
Li Yu looked at A-Niang and was furious, and for the safety of the little sister in the future, he proposed: "A-Niang, the next time the little sister goes out of the palace, no matter where she goes, she will arrange two guards to accompany her to ensure that she is safe." ”
"Yu'er is right, she was really negligent before her mother, and she actually gave such wolf-hearted people a chance."
Empress Wu gritted her teeth and said that Wu Minzhi's work was all given by her, and she originally hoped that he would become her help. Unexpectedly, this person not only had no help to himself, but also had no gratitude at all, and threatened the safety of the little girl. If he is blind and does not get rid of this wing, how can he relieve the hatred in my heart?
Li Yu saw from Ah Niang's demeanor that Ah Niang had murderous intentions towards Wu Minzhi, and it seems that history has to repeat itself in Wu Minzhi.
