Chapter 59: If you want to fall asleep, send a pillow
Huangfu Shaojie was still howling when he was carried home, and the doctors who arrived in time immediately stepped forward to treat him.
The skin and flesh of the wound looked very miserable, and when they heard the cry of pain, several wives of the Huangfu family were distressed and cried continuously. Then he continued to curse the perpetrators, and at the same time complained that Huangfu Jixun failed to protect his nephew.
At this time, Huangfu Jixun was upset and had to be angry. In today's situation, can the Zhou family and Princess Zheng be offended? He wants to defend his nephew more than anyone else, but is it useful? Now, treating his nephew's injuries is the top priority.
Mrs. Zhou really sent trauma medicine over, and Mrs. Huangfu muttered and wanted to throw it out directly, but was stopped by Huangfu Jixun.
As soon as I saw the bottle and the medicine, I knew that it was the imperial medicine in the palace, which was obviously sent from King Zheng's mansion, and what would be the consequences if I threw it out like this and passed it back into the ears of some people?
If you have already been beaten, you have to be beaten, so why bother to cause these unnecessary troubles?
I have to say that Huangfu Shaojie's injuries are really not light, the two strands of skin that have been beaten are open, and the doctor said that he needs to recuperate for more than a month.
As for the dislocation of his arm, although it has been reset, Huangfu Shaojie still screams in pain, almost dead and alive, and curses the doctor repeatedly. The wife of the Huangfu family also constantly complained, and even directly accused the doctor of poor medical skills.
The doctor felt very wronged, the young son of the Huangfu family was inevitably delicate, just dislocated, and had been reset, a little painful is certain, but as for this Cheng dΓΉ? It seems that he is pampered, weak and can't help the wind, and he can't even bear this pain. The ladies are even more spoiled and too unkind.
Alas, the healer sighed in his heart, and more of it was contempt and anger.
He didn't know that this was the result of Zhao Zheng's use of special techniques, and he could and would only treat it according to ordinary dislocations. Reset can, can be effective...... If the pain is enough for two days, it will not stop at all. But Huangfu Shaojie didn't think so, and insisted that his medical skills were not refined, and he didn't care about treatment, and he kept scolding.
Although the doctor was afraid of the power of the imperial family, he was also dignified, and when he saw this situation, he hurriedly confessed and left. As for the injury on the waist of the emperor's son, he didn't take a closer look, but he just thought that the injury was caused by medicine.
As a result, some dark injuries delayed treatment, and the final result was that Huangfu Shaojie went in and out of the latrine frequently in the following years. The multi-room wives and concubines are alone in the empty boudoir, and the ** Chu Pavilion is no longer visible, and the pain in it is only known to him. Of course, that's all for later!
Listening to his nephew's wailing, Huangfu Jixun's heart became more and more uncomfortable. It's not that he doesn't hate Mrs. Zhou and Emperor Zhou E in his heart. But it's useless, revenge is impossible, and even resentment is not daring to be revealed.
So all the hatred in his stomach turned to Zhao Zheng, not to mention that today's incident was caused by him, and he personally injured his nephew.
Can this revenge not be avenged? But how to report it?
Huangfu Jixun had no clue, Zhao Zheng was an envoy of the Song Dynasty after all. How to treat him can only be decided by the lord of the country, Li Jing, and he can't interfere at all.
Is it just insulted and indifferent? When Huangfu Jixun was in a rage, the porter came to report that a guest asked to see him.
"Nope!" How could the distraught Huangfu Jixun have the heart to meet guests?
I didn't want the porter to say, "General, the guest said that he came for your troubles." β
Oh? Huangfu Jixun is a little curious, what kind of person thinks of me? Is this an open mouth, or is it prepared? Think about it, why not see it?
However, after meeting, I was very disappointed, it turned out to be a hunchback, roe head rat eyes, and the image was really unbearable. Huangfu Jixun couldn't help frowning again and again, his expression was quite displeased.
"Who are you? What is the matter of asking to see General Ben? Huangfu Jixun was casually perfunctory, and did not immediately brush his sleeves away, which was already very face-saving.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that I know the information that the general desperately needs!"
"Tell me, then, what do I need?" Huangfu Jixun asked with interest.
"Zhao Zheng!" The hunchback gently spat out two words.
Huangfu Jixun was shocked suddenly, it seemed that he really wanted what I thought, and after a trace of surprise and hatred flashed in his eyes, he asked calmly: "Then you can talk about it!" β
"This person's surname is Zhao Mingzheng, the small character Wulang, nineteen years old, he was originally a monk in the Bianliang Dingli Academy, and his law name is abstinence, but now he should be vulgar."
"Monk?" Huangfu Jixun suddenly realized that Zhao Zheng's short hair was obviously abnormal, and it turned out to be because of this. Two times to confirm, and I also believed the words of the hunchback.
"Yes, on the night of the Chenqiao Mutiny, this person came forward to protect Zhao Kuangyin's family, and he should be a close confidant of the Zhao family."
"I see!" Huangfu Jixun even guessed whether Zhao Zheng would be a relative of Zhao Kuangyin's clan.
The hunchback continued: "Ling Zun is a northerner, General Huangfu is certainly no stranger to Hedong, a few days ago, the Luzhou Zhaoyi Army made Li Yun unite with the Northern Han Dynasty to oppose the Song Dynasty, presumably the general also heard about it. β
"Naturally, I heard about it, could it be that this matter is also related to Zhao Zheng?" Huangfu Jixun became more and more curious, and was secretly a little shocked.
"That's right, it was he who deceived Li Yun and made a big fuss in Luzhou, the matter of guiding the troops was delayed, the strategy was disrupted, and as a result, he was ambushed by Zhao Kuangyin, and the whole army was annihilated."
"What?" Huangfu Jixun was quite shocked, he didn't take Zhao Zheng in his eyes, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful!
The hunchback took the opportunity to say: "So, the general must not underestimate this person, after experiencing the incident of the Qinhuai River tonight, I believe that the general will not be taken lightly!" β
At the mention of Qin Huaihe, a trace of deep hatred flashed in Huangfu Jixun's eyes, his expression was a little uncalm, and his expression was slightly complicated when he looked at the hunchback.
"What does the general think he is doing in Nantang?" The hunchback smiled and asked, "The general really thinks that he is here to celebrate the birthday of your majesty?" β
This question aroused the strong interest of Huangfu Jixun and asked, "You know? β
"Of course I know, in fact, if the general thinks about what Song Guo is most afraid of now, he can also know."
"Afraid of what?"
"Of course, I'm afraid that Tang Guo will send troops to Jiangbei!"
The hunchback's voice was not high, but every word was bitten very hard, and Huangfu Jixun listened to it in his ears, and his heart was shocked.
"There was Li Yun's rebellion first, and many festivals made Li Chongjin intentionally oppose Zhao Kuangyin, and the Huainan war was about to start. At this time, Zhao Song was most worried that your country would send troops to recover the fourteen states in Jiangbei, so Zhao Kuangyin sent this person to come, wanting to stir up unrest in Jiangnan and prevent Tang from sending troops. β
"Who are you? How do you know in such detail? Huangfu Jixun's heart moved, and he turned to stare at the hunchback and asked.
"Because I am the same as the general, I am an enemy with that Zhao Zheng, and the hatred of killing my father is not shared! I've been following him for a long time...... At the beginning of the year I was in Bianliang, in April I went to Luzhou, and now I have just crossed the river from Huainan. β
The hunchback was Han Wei, and after learning that Zhao Zheng arrived in Jinling first, he began to spy on him. Today, by the Qinhuai River, I witnessed the conflict between Zhao Zheng and the Huangfu family.
In the eyes of Han Wei, this kind of scene is an excellent opportunity. It is not good for him to act openly in Jinling City now, it is not easy to deal with Zhao Zheng, and the best way is to borrow a knife to kill people.
But where should I borrow this sword? Han Wei was originally quite distressed about this, but after seeing Zhao Zheng do it to Huangfu Shaojie today, he also had eyebrows.
The Huangfu family was powerful in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and Huangfu Hui and Huangfu Shaojie were both impulsive, not old and cunning. This kind of person is easy to use, at least in dealing with Zhao Zheng, he can be a gunman. As for other things, it depends on whether they have the potential to be "used".
So, he struck while the iron was hot and boldly came to visit.
Huangfu Jixun was not stupid, and said in a deep voice: "From Huainan? Are you Lee Chongjin's man? β
"The general is wise, and he was indeed sent by Li Chongjin to supervise the army!"
"What are you doing in Jinling?"
"Of course, it is to invite the Southern Tang Dynasty to send troops to recover the fourteen states in Jiangbei and fight against Zhao and Song together!" Han Wei said in a deep voice: "The old general Huangfuhui died in Huainan in the past, and the general wants to go back to pay respects, right?" Ling Zun was brave, but he was plotted by Zhao Kuangyin and died under his knife, didn't the general want to take revenge? β
"Revenge!" Why doesn't Huangfu Jixun want to? If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have hated the Song envoy from the beginning, but he would ......
"To recover the fourteen states of Jiangbei, what General Ben said does not count, it needs to be decided by His Majesty. Since you represent Li Chongjin, why don't you go to see His Majesty? β
Han Wei said: "I also want to do it below, but the Song envoy will take the lead and go to Jinling first, is your majesty still willing to see me?" β
"That ......" Thinking of the character of the lord of the country Li Jing, Huangfu Jixun vaguely understood Han Wei's difficulties.
"This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, and the general must help, the first one is to prevent Zhao Zheng from entering the palace to meet your majesty."
Huangfu Jixun said in a deep voice: "He is here to celebrate His Majesty's birthday, and he will not delay his birthday at the latest." β
"That's good, until then, try to delay!"
"What do you want to do?" Huangfu Jixun asked with a frown.
"Of course, it's to deal with Zhao Zheng, about his own situation, strengths and weaknesses, can the general be interested?"
"Speak, speak!"
Huangfu Jixun is very urgent, this information is too useful. In addition to seeking an opportunity to deal with Zhao Zheng for revenge, this is also the most needed intelligence for the Southern Tang Dynasty.
If he can preemptively report before Han Xizai, he will definitely be able to get the appreciation of the lord of the country, Li Jing. Then the bad impact of offending Princess Zheng tonight will be reduced, and it will not affect the future of himself and the Huangfu family.
Thinking of this, Huangfu Jixun became more and more urgent, and he was still a little excited in his heart, if he really wanted to fall asleep, someone would send a pillow!
