Chapter 311 How about I send a message to Wu Riji tomorrow to ask him to come and accompany Her Maje
After getting rid of the prefect of Yanqi City and his officials, Cheng Yuheng no longer had any worries in the northern border. He only had to wait for the emperor's edict to be issued so that he could declare war on Beiji.
At this time, the prince's petition for war had already been presented to the emperor. Cheng Yuheng was afraid that this petition would be plotted against, so he did not pass it through the court channels, but used the internal channels of Tianying to send it to Cheng Zhiyuan, who then presented it to the emperor in person.
Jun Jingli stared at his son's vigorous and freehand handwriting, and his eyes became wet again. His son had been away for many years, and he always knew where he was. In the first few years, he did not dare to contact him, for fear that the traces he had hidden with great difficulty would be exposed.
Later, his son's power grew and he investigated his relationship with the Yu family behind the scenes. He knew everything. In order to avoid the Yu family's discovery, he had to help erase some traces in secret. It was also because of this that he was able to hide safely for ten years.
My son's handwriting reveals a unique temperament, which is very different from the conventional handwriting when he was young. His current handwriting is both independent and contains a different kind of momentum.
Lai Fu saw the tears flowing from the emperor's eyes and comforted him: "Your Majesty, why are you still sad after seeing the memorial from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has grown up, you should be happy!"
Jun Jingli wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief: "You old thing, you dare to laugh at me, aren't you afraid that I will chop off your head!"
Lai Fu smiled brightly: "Your Majesty, I know you are reluctant to chop off my head, so I dare to act so recklessly. Isn't it you who gave me the confidence?"
"You! You're so old, and you're still so smooth-talking!"
"Your Majesty, I am not old. I still have to serve you for a few more years. Please don't look down on me for being useless."
In Changchun Palace, Gao Huaizhou, who had just been severely beaten, was as pale as paper and lying on a stretcher with a weak breath. Several young eunuchs carried him back with expressionless faces.
After entering the Changchun Palace, Gao Huaizhou endured the severe pain and weakly asked the eunuchs to put him on the ground. At this time, the wound on his back had already been bleeding profusely, and the blood had penetrated through his thin coat, dyeing it a shocking blood red, looking bloody and horrible.
However, despite being extremely weak, Gao Huaizhou struggled to move his limbs. He used his hands and feet to crawl towards the imperial concubine's palace at an extremely slow speed. Every inch he moved forward was accompanied by heart-wrenching pain, but he still kept shouting: "Madam, you have to help me! Madam, I am really wronged!" His sad voice echoed in the palace.
In this way, Gao Huaizhou dragged his wounded body slowly on the stone floor. Wherever he passed, bright red bloodstains were conspicuously imprinted on the road.
Arriving at the palace gate, Gao Huaizhou did not dare to take another step forward, as he knew that he was filthy and was afraid of defiling the imperial concubine's bedroom.
"Your Majesty, I am wronged! Please help me!"
Before this, Yu Pingting already knew that Lai Fu had dared to send someone to beat her. After learning about this, she was furious and flew into a rage in the palace.
In a rage, she grabbed the precious porcelain, jade and other objects around her and smashed them to the ground. For a while, the crackling sound was endless, and many priceless things were destroyed.
However, even so, Yu Pingting's anger still could not be calmed. She suppressed her anger and ordered Qiangwei to invite Yunhai again. But who could have expected that Qiangwei would be turned away by the emperor this time and returned empty-handed.
This gave him a bad feeling and made him want to get rid of Yunhai and Yunjia Village even more.
At this moment, there was a sudden burst of sobbing outside the palace. After hearing the palace servants report that it was Eunuch Gao who was beaten with a stick and came back, Gao Huaizhou lay on the ground, crying so heartbroken and heartbroken. The crying was like sobbing and complaining, disturbing Yu Pingting's already restless heart even more.
"It seems that I have underestimated Yunjia Village and Yunhai. They are really powerful and can even make the emperor stand up for them," Yu Pingting said to Aunt Xu who was serving her while fiddling with the red nails and gritting her teeth.
The cries outside were getting weaker and weaker. At this time, Qiangwei, who had gone to check on Gao Huaizhou's injuries, walked in and said, "My queen, I've checked. Eunuch Gao's injuries are quite serious. It seems that the Ministry of Punishment has dealt a heavy blow to him."
Yu Pingting suppressed her anger and ordered: "Qiangwei, ask someone to go to the Imperial Hospital to find a doctor to treat Eunuch Gao's injuries. Tell Eunuch Gao that I already know about this matter, and let him go back to his room to recuperate for the time being. He can come back to serve me after his injuries are healed." After that, she waved her hand, signaling Qiangwei to do it quickly.
Qiangwei bowed and left the palace. She first had the injured eunuchs carried back, and then ordered a young eunuch to go and get the imperial physician. After everything was arranged, she returned to the palace, waved away the young palace maids in the palace, and closed the palace door.
Only Nanny Xu and Qiangwei were left in the hall.
After Yu Pingting's fit of rage, her emotions gradually calmed down.
At this moment, she was elegantly holding up the tea that Qiangwei had carefully filled for her. After taking a sip, she cast her eyes on Madam Xu who was standing beside her and asked slowly, "Madam, can you arrange for someone to find out how long it will take for the Second Prince to arrive in the capital?
Also, Mammy, please remember to give my father a message tomorrow and ask him to send someone to investigate my brother's situation at the border.
This Jun Mingyu, I underestimated him. I thought he would return to the capital with Cheng Zhiyuan, but who would have thought that he would choose to stay in the northern border. I really don’t know if my brother can handle him. "
Madam Xu bowed slightly and replied, "As you wish, Madam. I will deliver the news to the Marquis in time tomorrow, please rest assured. Madam, please do not worry too much. The Crown Prince and the Cheng family have been away from the capital for ten years. Even if they have returned to the capital now, the power in the capital cannot compare with that of Madam and His Royal Highness the Second Prince.
How much power could the prince have cultivated after living under the nose of the master for so many years? Otherwise, he would be discovered by the master. Even if he stayed in the north, he might not be the opponent of the master.
The eldest master has a large army and that place, plus that hidden place. Don't worry, madam! How can the Cheng family, who have retired from the court for ten years, be compared?
This time, the eldest master has reached a consensus with Beizi. If there is such a day in the future, Beizi will also help the second prince to take that position. Besides, the Marquis and the eldest master have always been far-sighted and resourceful. I believe they have already had a comprehensive plan for this. "
Yu Pingting was relieved by Aunt Xu's comfort: "I hope so! Aunt, my right eye has been twitching recently. I wonder if there is a disaster."
"Your Majesty, you have been too worried lately and haven't had enough rest. How about I send a message to Wu Riji tomorrow and ask him to come and accompany you?"
