Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 167
With Qin Qiong in charge, everything in the East Palace is proceeding in an orderly manner.Just as Qin Qiong thought, since he took over the Eastern Palace, people have been trying their best to inquire about the prince's injury through various channels.

However, this was solved one by one by Sun Chong, the living king of the Ministry of Integrity. In the past few days, he arrested seven court ladies and three imperial physicians from the corners of the East Palace, and finally emptied the stinky fish and rotten shrimps inside. .
"Show yourself, it's up to you, let's get rid of the folds." After taking a sip of the medicine in the bowl, Chang Sun Chong babbled while feeding Li Chengqian who was lying on the couch.

"Master Changsun, you can't slow down and choke His Highness." Zhang Sizheng tried to open Li Chengqian's mouth with one hand, and wiped the corner of Li Chengqian's mouth with the other hand.

"I haven't even served my daughter-in-law like this before, please be content!" It was really hard for him to let men like him and Zhang Sizheng do such delicate things.

But it is also something that has to be done, who can trust it at this time.

"You want to feed Princess Changle, and you are not afraid that His Majesty will break your leg." Zhang Sizheng replied with a look of disdain.

As Li Chengqian's confidant and the always stubborn eldest Sun Chong, he has had a lot of contact with him on weekdays, so he naturally speaks so politely.

"Tch, you are naked jealousy. Don't worry, when the crown prince wakes up, let him tell you about your relatives, so as not to cut off the incense in your Zhang family." After finishing speaking, he fed Li Chengqian another spoon.

"Ahem, your uncle." Li Chengqian, who had been lying down for five days, was finally woken up by Li Chengqian, his chest heaved violently, and his eyes were staring at Changsun Chong viciously.

"Oh, Your Highness, you've woken up. I'm going to invite Mr. Sun immediately." After speaking, he ran out quickly, still shouting, His Highness woke up.

"Hey, Your Highness, cousin, you finally woke up. You don't know, in order to ensure the safety of your food and clothing, cousin, I smashed my mouth, ran and broke my legs, and my body was almost exhausted, brother of the East Palace." Seeing Li Chengqian waking up, Chang Sun Chong also spoke incoherently with excitement.

Listening to Chang Sun Chong's chattering chatter, Li Chengqian looked at the familiar environment around him, and let out a long breath, it's good to be alive. .
"Mr. Sun, how is Gan'er's health? Will there be any sequelae?" Empress Changsun held Li Chengqian's hand and turned to ask Sun Simiao who was writing a prescription.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Your Highness has a solid foundation. As long as you take the medicine on time, you will recover soon."

"Chengqian, rest assured. I have asked the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple to jointly handle the case. Li Daozong and Dai Zhou will lead the investigation. Those rebels will never be let go."

During the period when Li Chengqian was in a coma, Li Shimin's temper was extremely irritable. There were more than a dozen eunuchs and maids in the Chengqing Palace alone, which showed how much the emperor valued this prince.

But what is strange is that Li Daozong and Dai Zhou, two veteran criminal officers, didn't even find out a single hair, as if these people appeared out of thin air.

What's even more intriguing is that even the people from Lijingmen didn't find any traces. It's so strange that they managed to create such a large force in Chang'an that they managed to hide it from their own eyes.

"The minister thanked the royal father. Originally, Mr. Sun was invited to take care of you and the queen mother's health. I didn't expect that I would use it first. Mr. Sun, do you always say that this palace is too foresighted? gone."

Li Chengqian's self-mockery eased the atmosphere in the hall, and even the dazed-eyed Empress Changsun laughed and cursed at him.

"Since His Highness can make jokes, it seems that there is no problem, then the old minister will retire." Qin Qiong finally showed a smile on his face after a few days of gloom.

He didn't dare to imagine what kind of blow the Qin family, Changsun family and other families that were firmly tied to the East Palace would suffer if Li Chengqian couldn't survive.

I'm afraid these families will disappear in a few years, and they have to worry about the attacks of the new crown prince and those aristocratic families from time to time.

Even the emperor might abandon them because of timely interests, and that would be a dead end.Fortunately, all this was a false alarm, and he could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Well, it's been really hard, Uncle Bao, Chengqian, you should thank your teacher well. You must know that those little guys under your command are not very worry-free."

Regarding the emperor's allusion, Li Chengqian could only smile helplessly.Before the emperor came, Chang Sun Chong babbled to him in detail what had happened in the past few days with his broken mouth, including of course the matter of those school captains breaking into the palace. .
After the emperor and others left, Li Chengqian's face immediately fell down.He believed that the emperor was telling the truth, even if his two younger brothers were the masterminds this time, Li Shimin would not let them go.

This directly proves that a mysterious new force is secretly rising, whether it is the aristocratic families, sectarian forces or those princes who eat, drink, whore and gamble on the surface, but always make small moves secretly?

He doesn't know who it is, but what he knows is that he must not wait to be beaten. This is not his temper, it is the time to take that step, even if he is misunderstood by Li Shimin, there is nothing he can do.

"Minister Zhao Jie and Qiu Shenji are meeting His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." After meeting the main staff members of the East Palace, the whole day was exhausted, and Li Chengqian had to bear the pain to summon the two most important people after dinner.

"Forget it, the people in the Eastern Palace have been constantly promoted in the imperial court in the past few years, but the two of you are standing still and helping Du Gou with some miscellaneous tasks, don't you think it's unbalanced?"

"The ministers and others have meager talents and virtues. If they can do this, they will be satisfied. How dare they feel resentment." Li Chengqian's words frightened the two of them, what good can they do if this hat is buckled?Then he kowtowed again and again to explain.

"Okay, okay, I didn't say anything to you, and you all got up. Cousin asked Zhang Sizheng to prepare some ginger soup, let them drink it to warm their stomachs when it's cold at night.".
"In the past, I deliberately suppressed you, which is also a kind of protection for you. Especially you Zhao Jie, according to your temper, can you live to this day if you don't?"

After listening to Li Chengqian's words, Zhao Jie lowered his haughty head. Since his father passed away, the Zhao family began to go downhill, and he became an orphan.

Without the support of the emperor and Li Chengqian, I wouldn't have known where to beg for food, and why should I be an official? Go ahead and dream.

As for his mother, Princess Guiyang, she didn't mention it, she didn't care about the relationship between father and wife and mother and child, and even before the filial piety period was over, she took the initiative to ask the Supreme Emperor for a marriage, how shameless.

But after that, Zhao Jie no longer recognized him as his mother.

At the same time, he was always against the Yang family on different occasions. If it wasn't for his uncle who still remembered his father's friendship and sent him to the East Palace to be Li Chengqian's companion, it wouldn't be easy for the Hongnong Yang family to kill him. .
