The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 16 Yue Peng Gets Beaten
Those craftsmen didn't know what the emperor was hiding in the room, but they only knew that he had ordered a lot of ceramic jars and lead wires.

When discussing privately, they only wondered if the little emperor was tired of crickets and crickets, and now he wanted to change his taste.

But today, they were talking about a different topic, related to Yue Peng.

Zhao Dongting was tinkering with land mines and bombs in the room, and he didn't care at all when he heard the whispers outside, but when he heard Yue Peng's name by accident, he became a little concerned.Yue Peng is the person he fancy. Although he has been demoted to the head of the guards, he is still his direct descendant.

Putting down the ceramic pot in his hand, Zhao Dongting opened the door and asked several busy craftsmen outside, "What are you talking about?"

Several craftsmen hurriedly knelt down on the ground, not daring to answer.

Zhao Dongting smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, I just want to hear what you are talking about, I think I heard General Yue's name."

The craftsmen were a little relieved, and one craftsman replied: "Go back to the emperor, let's talk about the beating of General Yue."

Yue Peng was beaten?

Zhao Dongting asked in surprise, "How could General Yue be beaten?"

A few craftsmen look at me and I look at yours, but no one dares to speak.

Zhao Dongting waved at the craftsman who spoke just now, "You come in with me."

The craftsman followed Zhao Dongting into the house.

Zhao Dongting was afraid of scaring him, so he said in a low voice: "General Yue is very good, who beat him?"

The craftsman replied: "I heard that the villain was beaten by the guards."

"Is it serious?"

"It seems that the injury is not serious, and I won't be able to get out of bed for a few days, but the villain also heard what the guards in the infantry said."

Zhao Dongting couldn't help being surprised, "How is this possible? Who can match General Yue's kung fu among the infantry guards?"

He thought to himself, could it be that there are still great masters in the guard infantry that he has not discovered?

Then the craftsman replied: "General Yue was beaten by hundreds of guards."

Zhao Dongting was even more surprised, thinking how could this be possible?Yue Peng is also a coach after all, how could there be hundreds of guards beating him?
Maybe it was the craftsman who heard the rumors and spread the rumors.

At that moment, Zhao Dongting didn't ask any more questions, and let the craftsman go out, and then he also left the workshop and went to the barracks of the infantry guards.

The master Li Yuanxiu and the maid Ying Er are naturally by his side at all times.

When they arrived at the barracks, they asked the guards to find out where Yue Peng lived. Zhao Dongting finally saw Yue Peng.

Yue Peng was really beaten badly, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, he could not help but hum softly as he lay on the bed, the room smelled of medicine, and there were many blood-stained gauzes on the ground.

Zhao Dongting immediately became angry, walked over and asked, "How are you, General Yue?"

Yue Peng had to force himself to get up and salute, but was held down by Zhao Dongting, "You just lie down obediently like this, why do you salute?"

Yue Peng couldn't get up, so he could only nod apologetically to Zhao Dongting, "The end will be fine..."

"Is it all right with you?"

Zhao Dongting said angrily, "I heard that you were beaten by hundreds of guards. What happened?"

Everyone knew that Yue Peng belonged to him, and hitting Yue Peng was slapping him in the face!
It is impossible for the guards to have the guts to beat up Yue Peng in groups, and it was clear that someone was instigating behind it.

But Yue Peng refused to say it, knowing: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, the last general...the last general is really fine."

Zhao Dongting lowered his face, "Tell me, who ordered those guards to beat you!"

Yue Peng hadn't seen Zhao Dongting angry yet, so he didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said, "Yes... General Su wants to test the martial arts of the young general."

"Su Quandang?"

Yue Peng was talking about General Su, so there was no doubt that it was Su Quan.Zhao Dongting said: "Find hundreds of guards to besiege you, Su Quandang is clearly punishing you, is it because you have some trouble with him?"

At this moment, Zhao Dongting was already full of anger.

Su Quandang got his wish and got the post of deputy official in charge of the infantry guards, but he still deliberately punished Yue Peng.

Yue Peng said with some embarrassment: "The last general missed and injured General Su during the whole army meeting before."

"It turns out that there is still this matter..."

Zhao Dongting nodded lightly, and helped Yue Peng tuck the quilt again, saying: "You can heal your injury first, and I will help you to uphold justice."

Hearing this, Yue Peng said, "Your Majesty, it's just a trivial matter. You really don't need to..."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand to stop him from continuing, saying: "You are my man, I can't let you be bullied for nothing."

After speaking, he walked outside.

He thought to himself, if Su Quandang dared to disregard his own face and beat up Yue Peng on the pretext of beating him, it was obviously because he did not have real power in his hands and did not take himself as the emperor seriously.For me, this may not be a good opportunity to stand up.

On the next day, Zhao Dongting woke up early and took Li Yuanxiu and Ying Er straight to the Palace of Political Affairs.

Concubine Yang Shu and the ministers were discussing important national affairs, when Zhao Dongting suddenly rushed in angrily, she said in surprise, "Yes, what's the matter?"

All civil and military officials saluted Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting didn't answer, and took Li Yuanxiu straight up to Su Quandang, "Beat him!"

Without hesitation, Li Yuanxiu raised his leg and kicked Su Quandang, who was bent over, to the ground, causing Su Quandang to groan in pain.

All the officials were shocked.

Li Yuanxiu rushed up again and kicked Su Quandang fiercely.

Su Quandang was also born as a military commander, he was familiar with martial arts, so he fought back naturally, but his kung fu was still far from Li Yuanxiu's, so he only got beaten.

Su Liuyi watched his own nephew being beaten, and couldn't stand it, so he hurried over to ask, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why is this?"

All the officials close to the Su family also came to stop Li Yuanxiu.

Zhao Dongting shouted coldly: "Whoever dares to intervene, beat them together!"

Although Li Yuanxiu's face was pale and needless, but his eyes stared at this moment, which also scared off those officials who were going to stop him.

Su Quandang was pitiful, and soon his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Howling in pain, he hurriedly shouted: "Help the Queen Mother! Help the Queen Mother!"

Concubine Yang Shu felt a little funny in her heart, but she was too embarrassed to read any further, so she said, "Elder-in-law, please stop."

Only then did Li Yuanxiu give up.

Su Quandang was already lying on the ground and couldn't get up.

Concubine Yang Shu asked Zhao Dongting, "Why are you so angry at General Su?"

Zhao Dongting was angry all over his face, "Coach Yue is the one I like. This is something that everyone in the court knows. This Su Quandang didn't know what to do. He didn't care about my face, and encouraged the soldiers to beat Coach Yue, just to vent his anger. Personal anger. If I don't teach him a lesson, how can he take me seriously?"

As he spoke, his eyes glanced coldly at all the officials present, "And you, do you take me seriously?"

This immediately frightened the court officials, and they knelt down on the ground quickly, shouting: "I dare not despise the Holy Majesty."

"It's good to know if you don't dare."

Zhao Dongting straightened his waist and pointed at Su Quandang on the ground, "If anyone dares to underestimate me, the end will be worse than him!"

After speaking, he took Li Yuanxiu directly to the outside of the hall, looking like a dandy, leaving all the officials stunned.

It seems that although the little emperor's temperament has changed drastically, this child's temper has not changed, so he must pay more attention in the future, and must not touch his brow.

As everyone knows, just as Zhao Dongting walked out of the palace, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Killing chickens and monkeys like this should make these courtiers think about it in their hearts.However, it really hurt Yue Peng.

He didn't go back to the bedroom, and went straight into the weapon workshop without mentioning it.

After the early court dispersed here, Concubine Yang Shu left behind a few ministers who were close to the pillars and asked: "What do you think is the intention of this son's move today?"

Of course she knew that it was impossible for Zhao Dongting to play childish temper again.

The ministers looked at me and I looked at you. Finally, Lu Xiufu stroked his beard and smiled softly: "The emperor deliberately erected his majesty in front of us. Queen Mother, you do not allow the emperor to take power personally. The emperor uses this Ways to demonstrate his status to everyone. Although he is not in charge, he is still the emperor of the Song Dynasty."

Looking at his eyes, he clearly admired Zhao Dongting's move.

Chen Wenlong said beside him: "Isn't the emperor afraid of the empress dowager's anger?"

Lu Xiufu said: "General Su avenged his personal revenge and beat Coach Yue. The Emperor's anger is reasonable and reasonable. The Empress Dowager may not be able to blame him."

Concubine Yang Shu nodded in approval.

If she had mistakenly thought that Zhao Dongting was possessed by another soul, she might have gotten angry.But now she only thought that Zhao Dongting was still Zhao Shi, so how could she get angry?
Of course, he nodded following Lu Xiufu's words.

The more Lu Xiufu thought about it, the more he felt that Zhao Dongting's move was clever, and he couldn't help laughing again, "The emperor's thoughts are really beyond the reach of my ministers..."

The corner of Su Liuyi's mouth twitched uncontrollably, "I just feel sorry for my poor nephew, I'm afraid he won't even be able to get out of bed for a few days."

But no one comforted him among the few people present, they just couldn't help laughing secretly.
