"Hua Tiju, the prince sent our family to get the medicine. "A eunuch walked into the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"Manager Xue, that's good. Hua Simiao replied, motioning for Hua Wenjun to bring the boiled medicine over.

This eunuch is the chief eunuch of the East Palace, called Xue Ba, as his name suggests, he has always been domineering in the palace, but he only respects Hua Simiao, probably because he is afraid that he will get sick one day.

There is also a reason, the prince has regarded Hua Wenjun as his sister since he was a child, and the relationship between the two is very good.

"Mr. Xue, when did Brother Prince come back? I haven't seen him for a long time. Hua Wenjun walked in small steps with the medicine.

"Yo, auntie, give the medicine to our family, don't burn you. The eunuch behind Xueba hurriedly took the medicine.

"This jar of plums was specially brought back from Jiangnan, and I bothered Mr. Xue to bring it to the prince's brother, so that when I take the medicine, I will not feel bitter. Hua Wenjun said.

"My aunt and grandmother have a heart, why don't you just go to the East Palace with our family to meet the prince, he also thinks about you, he mentioned you before our family comes." Xue Ba replied.

"That's a good feeling, Daddy, then I'll go to the prince's brother to play for a while. Hua Wenjun said.

"Go ahead, and remember not to lose your manners. Hua Simiao advised, but he knew that this was also in vain, his daughter grew up in the palace since she was a child, with a well-behaved personality and a beautiful person, so that everyone from the queen mother to the emperor loved it, and allowed her to enter and leave the palace freely, without being bound by the palace rules, and even all the princes were worried about marrying her back to be the imperial concubine.

**The solemn East Palace is heavily guarded, and countless Xuanlong flags are displayed in the wind.

Here is inhabited by the future Son of Heaven of the Southern Han Kingdom.

Prince, Ji Yubing.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Hua Wenjun bowed.

"Sister Wen Jun, hurry up. Ji Yubing was lying on the couch on her side, closing her eyes and recuperating, and when she saw Hua Wenjun coming, she got up very happily and said.

"Brother Prince, where have you been going to play lately, have you encountered something new, tell me about it. Hua Wenjun got up and jumped on the prince's dragon chair and sat next to him.

"Your Highness, this is the sweet plum and medicine specially prepared for you by the Hua Judgment Bureau, the slave has come all the way, the temperature is just right, and please use the medicine first. Xue Ba respectfully handed over the medicine.

Ji Yubing picked up a sweet plum and put it in his mouth, tilted his head, and drank the medicine.

"Xue Ba, you can wait outside the palace. Ji Yubing handed the bowl back to him and said.

"Yes, Your Highness. Xue Ba hurriedly retreated.

"Brother Prince, is Gan Mei sweet?" asked Hua Wenjun with a tilted head.

"Well, sweet, I haven't seen you for a few months, Sister Wen Jun seems to be emaciated, could it be that someone bullied you, tell me, I'll clean him up." Ji Yubing said with a smile.

"No, in the past few months of your absence, I went out of the palace to run an errand, there was a plague in Jiangnan, and the doctors of the Taiyi Bureau went down to Jiangnan, I am the judge, and naturally it is my responsibility, you don't know this, Brother Prince, you don't care about people at all. Hua Wenjun pouted and said.

"Well, when I went back to the palace, I heard my father say this, okay, why are you still angry, okay, okay, okay, this time I went out of the palace but I also did a big thing, do you want to listen to it?" Ji Yubing hurriedly reassured.

As soon as she heard a story, Hua Wenjun immediately settled down.

"Talk about it quickly, people like to listen to the prince's brother tell stories outside the palace. She hurriedly urged.

The two sat on the dragon chair together and talked about the experience of these days, and there were bursts of laughter from time to time.

After a while, a little eunuch hurried over.

"Stop, what are you panicking, Your Highness is resting inside, what's the matter?" Xue Ba scolded.

"Manager Xue, Chunmei has thrown herself into the well. The little eunuch said in a panic.

"Which Chunmei?" asked Xue Ba.

"It's Chunmei, the maid who broke a vase yesterday and was whipped by you. The little eunuch said.

"Hey, what's the matter, is it worth the panic. Xue Ba said with a relaxed face.

"The trouble is that the second prince knows about this, and he is saying that he will be held responsible. The little eunuch replied.

"Second prince, how can he take care of such a trivial matter. Xue Ba asked.

"You said that it was a coincidence, this Chunmei turned out to be the niece of the second prince's nurse, Manager Xue, you better be careful, at this time the people of the second prince are rushing to the East Palace. The little eunuch hurriedly replied.

Xue Ba was also panicked at this time, even though he was the head of the East Palace, but with the respect of the second prince, it was still easy to deal with him.

He looked around and saw the guards of the second prince coming straight to the East Palace from afar, this is to ask Xue Ba for the crime.

"You...... Go in and report to Your Highness. Xue Ba was so frightened that he stammered.

The little eunuch hurriedly ran into the main hall with a smoke.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince......" he shouted in a panic.

"Nonsense, don't you see I'm busy? Ji Yubing scolded loudly.

"Oh no, Manager Xue was taken away by the second prince's people. The little eunuch replied breathlessly.

"Second brother, what's going on?" Ji Yubing asked.

The little eunuch hurriedly told the ins and outs of the matter.

"Hmph, this Xue Ba, who relies on me to support his back on weekdays, is arrogant and domineering, if it weren't for the old man beside him, even I would have to deal with him, I had already told him that he should be cautious, but he just didn't listen. Ji Yubing said angrily.

In fact, everyone knows the things in this palace, but all the minions who have a little more power behind the master are somewhat arrogant, after all, the dignity of being a man is gone, of course, you have to make up for it in other things.

This is probably the reason why there have been many wicked eunuchs since ancient times.

"Young master, although Xue Ba is arrogant on weekdays, he is the head of the East Palace after all, so it is not the turn of the second prince to deal with it. A man's voice came from the corner of the hall.

He stood far away, but his voice was clear to everyone's ears.

"I also said, how could there be no you by the side of the prince's brother, it turns out that you are hiding aside. Hua Wenjun was obviously very familiar with this person who was talking in the shadows.

"Young master, the second prince has been on the move recently, we didn't rush back to Beijing because of this matter, I think he caught Xue Ba and he didn't mean to drink, we have to prevent him from using the topic to play. The voice continued.

Ji Yubing pondered for a while and stood up.

"Let's go, follow me to the chamberlain. ”

If a person in this palace commits a crime, he will generally be escorted to the inner chamberlain, who will be in charge of the trial.

At this moment, Xue Ba had been taken to the inner chamberlain by the second prince, kneeling under the hall, trembling and trembling.

"Father-in-law Xue, Chief Manager Xue. The second prince, Ji Lie, was sitting in the hall, cutting his fingernails, and he didn't even look at Xue Ba when he spoke.

"II...... Second Highness. Xue Ba's words are not good, after all, in front of the royal family, he is like an ant.

"You are so majestic, who gave you the courage to disregard people's lives. Ji Lie asked, still not raising his eyelids.

"Slave...... No...... It is also punished in accordance with public regulations. Xue Ba replied hesitantly.

"Now that someone has died, according to what you say, can I also cure you to be pampered and arrogant, and lawless. Ji Lie said.

Xue Ba lay on the ground and didn't dare to speak, he didn't know in his heart that it was normal for a palace maid and eunuch to die in this palace.

It's just that this time he touched the moldy head of the second prince, which can be regarded as bad luck.

In fact, the two princes and the crown prince are twin brothers, but when the queen gave birth that year, the prince was born half an hour ago, so he became the prince as the eldest son.

The crown prince Ji Yubing has been gentle and frugal since childhood, and the second prince Ji Lie is smart and witty, each with its own merits.

But the second prince Ji Lie has always felt that he is better than his brother, just because he was born half an hour late and missed the position of the prince, he was indignant in his heart, so he wanted to overpower the crown prince Ji Yubing everywhere, and it was rumored that he had coveted the crown prince for a long time.

Therefore, he usually looks for Ji Yubing's moldy head everywhere in the palace, and Ji Yubing, as a brother, naturally will not blame him more, so he is even more fearless.

"Chief Manager Xue, why don't you speak?" Ji Lie's face suddenly sank, he stood up suddenly, slapped the table and scolded loudly.

Xue Ba was startled, his legs weakened, and he collapsed on the ground.

"Hahahaha, the people in the eldest brother's palace are just like this, how much ability do I think they have?" Ji Lie suddenly laughed out loud again and sat down.

Looking at Xue Ba again, he had already been frightened to the point that his face turned pale and trembled like chaff.

"Xue Ba, it's easy for me to take your life today, but I can give you a chance to live, not only that, but also let you continue to enjoy the glory and wealth, do you want to hear it?" asked Ji Lie.

"II...... The second highness has a life, slave ...... Ten Thousand Deaths...... Never give up. Xue Ba's tongue was knotted at this time.

"Very good, haha......" Ji Lie's sinister laugh spread throughout the Inner Chamberlain.

It didn't take long for Ji Yubing to rush to the Inner Chamberlain with someone.

I saw that Xue Ba was being pressed to the ground, slapping the board, and the screams were endless.

"Yo, big brother, no, I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince. Ji Lie's mouth was very polite, but he didn't want to get up when he sat in the chair.

"Second brother, even if Mr. Xue is not, shouldn't you also inform me, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for you to deal with it yourself. Ji Yu asked with a dark face.

"I'm sorry, I acted in a hurry and forgot to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, but this Xue Ba acted arrogantly and forced the palace maid to death, and it was time to teach a lesson, but since the prince has spoken, stop. Ji Lie raised his hand and signaled.

The execution guard stopped, only to see Xue Ba's buttocks being beaten open and fleshy, and the flesh and blood were blurred.

"Help Manager Xue back to heal first. Ji Yubing said.

The little eunuch on the side hurriedly helped Xue Ba up and took him out.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, my good eldest brother, you have to control your subordinates well, this is my younger brother I met this matter, if this is known by my father, your majesty is not strict, what do you say his old man will think. Ji Lie said angrily.
