Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 444 Palace Envoy
Li Dai's painful wailing sounded from the gate of the Sui Palace to the upper room in the west courtyard, and blood dripped all the way.There were countless people who witnessed this scene on the road, and the news quickly spread throughout the palace, and everyone rushed to the west courtyard to visit the injured.

The resident physician of Sui Palace gave Li Dai emergency treatment, but his injury was not optimistic.

Li Dai's horse was frightened for unknown reasons, and after throwing him off the horse, he dragged him for several tens of feet before stopping because the stirrup leather tether that tied his right foot broke suddenly.The horse was later subdued by an accompanying guard, but because Li Dai also fell and dragged the horse, as well as being trampled by other horses nearby when he landed, not only his right leg was broken, his left foot was turned, and there were many injuries on his body. Severe scrapes and bruises, both hands bloody.When he was sent back to Sui Palace, he looked like a blood man.

Seeing her husband's miserable appearance, Princess Pei almost fainted on the spot.But even if she tried her best to keep calm, ordered a doctor to treat her husband's injury, and asked someone to change his clothes and clean the wound, it still couldn't change the fact that she had never had a similar experience, and she was extremely flustered.When Sui Wang and his wife arrived, she quickly fainted in the arms of her confidant maid, and handed over the on-site command to Princess Dou, and she was sent back to the East Courtyard to rest and have a baby.

Zheng Yuchai stayed with her mother to take care of her, and Zheng Wen rushed to Pei's house to ask a doctor who is good at gynecology.The safety of the fetus in Princess Pei's womb is also very important. The Sui Wang couple have both spoken, so she doesn't need to worry about the affairs of the West Court, she just needs to take care of herself first.

On Li Dai's side, the King of Sui invited an imperial physician who was good at surgery orthopedics to treat his son's injuries.Not long after, the sage also heard the news and sent envoys to the Sui Palace to ask why the incident happened.Then came the palaces of various clans and palaces, especially the ones that were closely related to the King of Sui.The front yard of the palace was soon filled with the royal relatives who came to care and visit. Everyone had various speculations and discussions about Li Dai's shocking accident, but they all had the same thought in private - after suffering such a serious injury, Li Dai Toi must not be able to be an official anymore, right?

Later, even people from Li Linfu's house came to express condolences.The brothers and sisters of the Yang family in Xuanyangfang remained silent.

Li Dai has been in a state of impotence and rage since his injuries were dealt with.Even if the palace envoy came into the room to express his condolences, he almost couldn't hold back the anger in his heart. Fortunately, the third younger brother Li Lang and the eldest son Li Jianrang were there to smooth things over, so he didn't offend the palace envoy.Afterwards, Concubine Dou stuffed someone with a thick purse and signaled her granddaughter Li Lijun to see off the guests, so she could deal with them.

The messenger of the palace, Gao Lishi, walked in the corridor, took out a heavy purse from his sleeve, poured out a few round pearls, stuffed them into Li Lijun as pocket money, and then asked her: "What's the matter with the king? Lost a horse? I remember his pet horse was very docile, and it never happened."

Li Lijun said: "Someone did something wrong, right? This is actually not the first time." She talked about the time when Li Dai's entourage was almost bribed, not mentioning that the second saddle was actually something that she did. It is the third time that Yang Guozhong's confidant has gone up to this day.

The little Gao Lishi listened solemnly: "Who is so bold? He did this to the King of the Sui Dynasty?! The matter of throwing the horse is not a joke. I just heard the third master mention it. The leather tie rope of the stirrup that held his feet broke suddenly, and he was afraid that he would be dragged to death by the horse! If it was just a little quarrel, someone wanted to teach him a lesson, and make him fall and make a fool of himself, that would be enough This almost killed someone, but it seems like there is some deep hatred, ordinary people can't do it!"

Li Lijun didn't tell little Gao Lishi that she actually broke the stirrup leather tie around Li Dai's right foot.When Li Dai went out, she noticed it immediately, she just felt bored and impatient at the time, so she quietly sent a little paper crane with invisibility effect to follow him, to see what stupid things he could say to Yang Guozhong.Seeing him fall off his horse on the way, and he was about to be dragged to death, she had no choice but to let the little paper crane explode and cut the stirrup leather tie to save her stupid father's life.Fortunately, the situation was chaotic at that time, there were no monks among the people present, and Li Laodao, who was traveling separately, was far away, so she couldn't detect such a small fluctuation of spiritual power, so she didn't reveal her whereabouts.

However, this method of using spells in the air is quite labor-intensive.Even if the issue of confidentiality is not mentioned, there is no guarantee that it will be successful every time.Li Lijun only felt that his stupid father was really lucky.If she hadn't chosen to send the little paper crane to follow him, perhaps he would have died today.Such good luck may not always follow him, so it's better for him to calm down in the future.Li Lijun would rather have a lame father than to see him commit stupidity for fame and power, and then ruin his own life for no reason.

Thinking of this, Li Lijun whispered the name of the official who tried to buy Li Dai's entourage to Little Gao Lishi: "If there is no accident, this person is behind the scenes. He was the one who tried to buy people around me, Aye, just It’s just unsuccessful. I, Aunt, found out about this person a few days ago. Aye felt that he must have acted without telling Yang Guozhong, so he wrote a letter to Mrs. Guo Guo, asking her to inform Yang Guozhong of this matter. Afterwards, the Yang family brothers and sisters did not Any action, that person is still an official. Aye is in a hurry to go out today, just want to ask why Yang Guozhong didn't deal with this person, unexpectedly something happened on the way..."

Young Gao Lishi immediately had an association: "Although this person also has arrogance at times, it is impossible for him to openly attack the heir of the clan without Yang Guojiu's approval. The heir and the brothers and sisters of the Yang family have a relationship with each other on weekdays." The communication must be due to inadvertently offending someone with words but not knowing it?"

He looked at Li Lijun sternly: "Li Niang, you haven't returned to Chang'an, and you don't know what's going on at home, so I didn't ask you. Do you know why the heir king suddenly wants to seek a phase? Mrs. Guo Guo and Mrs. Han Han The first time I laughed at the prince in front of the noble concubine, saying that he was daydreaming, and that Princess Pei was also wishful thinking, so she would enter the palace to speak for her husband. The concubine felt that it was not easy for Princess Pei, so she didn't follow her to laugh at her, but she also felt that the prince was too whimsical Well, Tao is a sage who never considered appointing an heir. Once Li Xiang passed away, Yang Guojiu was the first choice to succeed him. Yang Guojiu was seriously ill, and there were still a few important ministers in the court. The sage has never thought of using a close clan, wishing that all the kings would not interfere in the government."

In fact, Li Lijun also couldn't figure it out. In the past, Li Dai just wanted to be a high-ranking official with real power, but now he has his eyes on the position of prime minister of a country. This is not a little bit of anger. Who gave him the courage?
Little Gaolishi said again: "This time, if the successor king's accident is really related to Uncle Yang Guo, I'm afraid he can only swallow it. The saint is favoring Uncle Yang Guo, but he regrets that he is seriously ill and cannot be the successor king. Those who reprimanded him. If the successor king is entangled, I'm afraid he will also annoy the saint."

Last year during the Lantern Festival, the slave of the Yang family offended Princess Guangning and even beat Princess Guangning's son-in-law. The princess' son-in-law went to the palace to file a complaint.From this it can be seen how much the sage favors the Yang family, even his own daughter can only stand aside, let alone his nephew?

Little Gao Lishi worried that Li Dai, the king of the Sui Dynasty, was reckless and offended the saint, but implicated the innocent children, so he specially told Li Lijun to be careful, and asked her to explain the relationship clearly with the king of Sui, so as not to offend the saint again. self-knowledge.

Li Lijun pursed her lips: "Don't worry, uncle, I understand it in my heart. Please be careful when you do things in the palace, and your own safety is the most important thing in everything."

She wouldn't let the brothers and sisters of the Yang family step on her head!
