In the imperial palace and the royal study room, hearing Eunuch Huang's screams, Li Shimin stopped correcting the memorial in displeasure and reprimanded Eunuch Huang.
After hearing His Majesty's reprimand, Eunuch Huang wiped the sweat from his forehead, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, something really happened, something big happened!"
"Tell me, what happened to make you so panicked?" Li Shimin also felt that something was wrong. Eunuch Huang had been with him for many years and had always been calm. He said something had happened because he was afraid that something had really happened. This made Li Shimin put aside his displeasure and hurriedly asked. road.
"The eldest grandson... Mr. eldest grandson is unconscious. Several doctors have visited him and there is nothing he can do. I'm afraid... I'm afraid that it won't work. Now there are rumors that Mr. eldest grandson has passed away." , but the Changsun family is afraid of being tricked, so they keep it secret for the time being. Your Majesty, do you think?" Huang Eunuch hurriedly explained.
"What? What did you say? Changsun Wuji is dead? Is this news confirmed?" Li Shimin stood up and said.
"This is news from the Secret Intelligence Department, and I asked people to inquire among the people. There is indeed such news leaked out. I'm afraid... I'm afraid it's true. If you want to verify it, just send someone to Changsun Mansion. Got it!" Eunuch Huang reported.
"Tell Li Xiaogong to go to Changsun's house on my behalf. If the news is confirmed, report back immediately!" Li Shimin said with a solemn expression.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Huang bowed and replied.
"By the way, bring the imperial doctor with you, and bring a few more. If Changsun Wuji is really ill, let the imperial doctor take a good look at him. If Changsun's family dares to stop him, tell them that this is my will. !" Li Shimin ordered again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Eunuch Huang nodded hurriedly, and then hurriedly retreated. He was going to deliver the order. This was a major event and could not be delayed.
Li Xiaogong got His Majesty's order immediately. Looking at the three imperial doctors standing in front of him, Li Xiaogong couldn't help but curled his lips and cursed in his heart. This eldest son Wuji was already dead, why should he go and see it.
However, thinking that the reason why Changsun Wuji was like this was inseparable from Luo Zhang, there was nothing wrong with helping Luo Zhang to take a look, so Li Xiaogong suppressed his dissatisfaction and got on the sedan chair to the Changsun Mansion. In any case, if Changsun Wuji really dies, then Luo Zhang is probably not exempt from the blame.
Although Changsun Wuji asked for it, his death was caused by Luo Zhang. When the time comes, the Changsun Mansion will definitely try its best to retaliate. This has become a life-or-death situation. If Luo Zhang can't resist, this is no joke.
When Li Xiaogong's sedan chair landed outside the gate of Changsun Mansion, there were already people waiting in front of the gate. After all, Li Xiaogong represented His Majesty, and someone had reported it in advance to go to Changsun Mansion.
After getting off the sedan, Li Xiaogong saw the eldest elder of the Changsun Mansion. The second young master of the Changsun Mansion was standing outside the door. This reception was considered grand.
"Welcome the Prince of Hejian County. I wonder why the Prince of Hejian County came to Changsun Mansion?" the elder asked, cupping his hands.
Li Xiaogong was naturally able to deal with such an old fox. He coughed and said, "Your Majesty is concerned about Lord Changsun, and has specially ordered me to bring three imperial doctors to see how Lord Changsun is doing and to treat him. After all, he is the pillar of the country. Your Majesty is sympathetic and hopes that he can return to the DPRK as soon as possible and take up his important responsibilities!"
The elder's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the steward. The meaning was self-explanatory. How could His Majesty know that Changsun Wuji was not in good health?
The second son's eldest son, Sun Huan, also changed his face slightly. This matter was strictly guarded. How could it be exposed? Could it be that there are His Majesty's spies in the eldest son's family?
It is really possible. In order to control the movements of important court officials or confidential officials, His Majesty would secretly send spies to sneak into their houses. Once they find any disobedient behavior, they will be arrested and interrogated. I am afraid that this is how the story about my father will be spread. into His Majesty's ears.
"It turns out that the Prince of Hejian County is here to visit the family master, but the master of the house is indeed ill. The doctor said that he should not be disturbed and needs to rest. He is afraid that he will not be able to see the Prince of Hejian County." The elder prevaricated.
"Your Majesty has an edict!" Li Xiaogong did not refute the elder's words and directly read out the edict.
"I accept the order!" The great elder was suddenly startled and hurriedly knelt down, as did Changsun Huan beside him.
"I am very concerned about Changsun Wuji's service to the country and the people. I specially ordered Li Xiaogong to visit me, and the imperial physician will accompany him for diagnosis and treatment without any mistakes!"
After saying that, Li Xiaogong stood there and looked at the great elder quietly. With His Majesty's will, he didn't have to argue with him and bring out the imperial edict. If you dare to stop it, that's fine. I won't go. I will just report back to Your Majesty. He didn't need to get angry because of his eldest son, Wuji. This matter had nothing to do with him in the first place.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After hearing His Majesty's decree, the First Elder sighed in his heart. Knowing that this matter could not be concealed, he had no choice but to respectfully welcome Li Xiaogong into the mansion, and at the same time asked the housekeeper to immediately find out what was going on and who was going to The news got out.
Before the elder could invite Li Xiaogong into the hall, the housekeeper hurried back, his face even pale and his lips trembling.
Seeing this, the great elder asked Chang Sun Huan to greet Li Xiaogong on his behalf, while he pulled the housekeeper aside and said, "What's going on? Why are you looking like this?"
"Great Elder, something happened, something big happened, outside..." the housekeeper swallowed.
"Tell me quickly, what's going on outside?" the great elder urged.
"Everyone outside knows the news that the master of the family is seriously ill and unconscious. People in shops, restaurants, and teahouses are all talking about it. Now I am afraid that everyone in Chang'an City knows about it. I am afraid that His Majesty also heard about it before sending someone. Come!" the housekeeper explained hurriedly.
"What? What did you say? Everyone outside knows it? How is this possible?" The great elder was shocked and said, his hands trembling a little.
"Everyone knows it. Even the common people know that the head of the family is dying, and they are all talking about it. There are many people talking outside the gate, and some people have even come to inquire!" the housekeeper said anxiously.
"Damn it, it's extremely abominable, who, who spread this news, who spread the news, is trying to destroy my eldest grandson's family!" the great elder cried sadly.
"Great Elder, what should we do now?" the steward asked hurriedly.
"How to deal with it?" The eldest elder took a deep breath. He also knew that now is not the time to grieve, but to solve the problem and tide over the difficulties. Otherwise, the Changsun family may not be able to withstand it.
"In this way, whenever someone comes to your door, you tell the truth. The master of the house is indeed ill, but it is not like the legend in the market. Let those people go back first. When the master of the house gets better, he will definitely visit and thank you. As for what they are inquiring about, Ignore them at all. As for those words in the public, send me someone to investigate. We must find out who did this. I will cut him into pieces!!!" the great elder ordered.
"Yes, Great Elder, I'll do it right away!" The housekeeper nodded and hurriedly retreated.
The great elder looked at the steward's leaving figure, his eyes full of murderous intent, but the murderous intent was restrained by him in the next moment, he straightened his clothes and headed towards the hall, where there was a more difficult person waiting for him.
When they came to the hall, Li Xiaogong was holding a cup of tea and drinking tea in the presence of the old god. When he saw the great elder coming, he quickly put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "How is it? Has the great elder also received the news from the public? ?The reason why His Majesty sent me here is also to check after receiving such news. So, don’t hide it. You can hide it from others, but it is wrong to hide it from Your Majesty. You said Am i right?"
Looking at Li Xiaogong's wretched smile, the First Elder wanted to give him a punch. This matter was full of strangeness and he had no way of starting. Now His Majesty also knows about it. If Li Xiaogong is not allowed to investigate, His Majesty will definitely become suspicious. Wonderful, just as Li Xiaogong said, just generously bring someone to Li Xiaogong to have a look, explain the matter clearly, let His Majesty know what is needed now, then raise the problem, and ask His Majesty to help find Dr. Sun. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises.
Thinking of this, the Great Elder also said calmly: "It's not that I didn't inform Your Majesty, it's just that this incident just happened, and I didn't expect it to spread like wildfire. I originally thought of letting a few more doctors take a look before talking about it, but I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so concerned." Subordinate, three imperial doctors have been sent here. Your Majesty’s love for my eldest grandson’s family is really unrequited!”
The two old foxes looked at each other and smiled knowingly, saying nothing.
