Chapter 523: Prince, Prince Qing
"Are you OK?"
Qi Ya looked at Young Master Liu holding his mouth and sucking in cold air, and asked softly for humanitarian reasons.
"It's not a big problem. It's just that I've been busy with court affairs recently and neglected to exercise. In the past, I had a green dragon on my left and a white tiger on my right, with my skin hanging around my waist. I didn't even have to use my hands for these little brats."
Although he had suffered a big loss and almost had a bruise on his nose and face, Liu Mingzhi still refused to admit defeat for the sake of the man's poor dignity, speaking tough words.
As for the pain in my heart, only I know it.
Qi Ya is a very intellectual woman. When she saw Mr. Liu's appearance, she nodded lightly and said nothing.
"Stop it. He actually committed a murder on the spot in broad daylight. Do you have any other methods?"
"Which grandson... His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Master Liu? Why is it you? What's going on?"
Prince Li Baiyu looked at Liu Mingzhi with a wound on the corner of his mouth in surprise and confusion.
"Your Majesty, Liu Mingzhi, is polite. I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"Uh... I've met His Highness Prince Qing."
Liu Mingzhi looked in surprise at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Baiyu and Prince Qing Li Baihong standing side by side, a little stunned.
The two brothers fought fiercely in private over the supreme chair. They were the kind of people who never interacted with each other until death. Even though I had not been in the capital for a long time, I had heard about it.
But the sun was out in the west today, so it was incredible that these two brothers would travel together.
"No gift."
The two said in unison, seemingly in harmony but with the feeling that neither one was convinced by the other.
This kind of reaction made Liu Mingzhi even more puzzled. They were obviously competing with each other, so why would they go out together?
Forget it, as long as you love it, I don't want to get involved in royal matters.
"Thank you, Your Highnesses."
"Master Liu, what are you..."
"Oh, your Highness, don't be alarmed. I met some dandy boys who molested women from good families. I couldn't stand it for a while and taught their father a few lessons. When he was a teenager, he dared to molest women from good families in broad daylight. When he grows up, he is not allowed to change his mind. Heaven."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not believe Liu Mingzhi's words, and looked sideways at Du Yu and the others who were lying on the ground wailing in different directions.
But because several people were holding their heads, it was impossible to identify them.
"real?"
"Zhu Tou, stop it. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness Prince Qing are here, how can they be so unbecoming as to move their hands and feet?"
Hearing this, Zhu Run stopped his fists and kicked, packed his clothes and came over: "Zhu Run, the Marquis of Guannei, meets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Prince Qing."
"Marquis Guannei, why is it you?"
The prince smiled slightly when he saw Zhu Run. Although the coal business was proposed by Young Master Liu, it was Zhu Run who handed him the real money. These days, the prince's personal relationship with the Marquis of Guannei is quite good.
There is a faint trace of someone who could become a prince.
Although the prince did not benefit from the first wave of 7 million taels, after receiving the second balance of 9 million taels, Li Zheng may have realized his conscience and gave the prince a dividend of more than one million taels of silver.
The acquisition of more than one million taels of silver notes almost made the prince so happy that he could not find the north and south. Since he was established as the crown prince, the inner treasury of the prince's palace did not have more than one hundred thousand taels of silver.
Although the prince has money from the national treasury, he still has to win over people in order to gain a foothold.
I don't dare to touch the right to reward ministers at will, so I can't win people's hearts except gold, silver and jewelry.
Therefore, it can be said that I am quite satisfied with Zhu Run, the prince who is a big financial lord.
He is even closer than Liu Mingzhi, who is nominally the prince's companion.
After all, Young Master Liu is now in the ascendant of the Holy Family, and he is even closer to his father.
When King Qing saw Zhu Run's appearance, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes. The private affairs between the prince and Zhu Run were no longer a secret.
Nowadays, Zhu Run, the Marquis of Guannei, is a household name in the capital. Of course, he is famous and not the 'household name' he used to be.
It's strange that Prince Qing was so happy that a person who gained such power favored the prince line.
Zhu Run put down his sleeves and said, "Your Highness, there are some bastards who teased my unmarried wife in public. I was so angry that I gave them a few lessons."
Prince Zhou Yuhe naturally knew about Zhu Run's fiancée. He looked quietly and saw the fingerprints on Zhou Yuhe's face, which made him completely believe Liu Mingzhi and Zhu Run's words.
I just saw Prince Qi Ya looking a little surprised at the side, but I didn't expect that another master with a great reputation in the capital was also here.
The prince looked at Du Yu and the others who were lying on the ground wailing, and their expressions turned cold: "To be so arrogant and molest a good woman in public is simply lawless. A few lessons would be too light. In my opinion, the prince should be imprisoned pending trial and handed over to the police." The Yamen in Kyoto will be reopened."
"Prince Shengming, I've just given him a lesson, so I'll just put him in jail pending trial."
Liu Mingzhi hurriedly tried to dissuade him. If the sons of three ministers and two ministers were imprisoned pending trial, they would be completely at odds with them.
The prince doesn't know their identities now. If he does know, he must treat them with caution. After all, the three ministers of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Punishments play a very important role in the court. If one of them is not good, they will be in trouble.
If the prince thought that he and Zhu Run deliberately tricked him, it would be really hard to argue with him.
"Brother is right. He dares to tease the Lord and his wife and must be severely punished. If Lord Liu is not willing to take action, why not leave it to the king to deal with it? I guarantee that Lord Liu will be satisfied."
When King Qing opened his mouth, it seemed like he was helping the prince, but in fact he was trying to win over Liu Mingzhi, a man with a prosperous holy family. Although his official position was not high, he had a lot to do.
Although he was teased by him when they first met, King Qing planned to take him under his command regardless of past suspicions.
For this person who has been in and out of his father's imperial study for a long time, a few nice words for him would be several times better than having to spend all his time to please his father.
Liu Mingzhi naturally understood what King Qing meant, and sighed silently. He was really fighting openly and secretly, and kept suppressing and coaxing him.
"His Royal Highness Prince Qing has thanked his kind minister, but he really cannot be imprisoned for trial. They..."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Prince Qing, you have to make the decision for us."
Liu Mingzhi had not yet revealed the identities of the others. After they recovered, they rushed to the Crown Prince and Prince Qing and started wailing.
His grief-stricken voice made people shed tears, as if there was truly a great injustice.
Although the prince and Prince Qing felt that the voices of several people sounded familiar, they could not recognize them at all because their noses and faces were as bruised and swollen as a pig's head due to Zhu Run's punches and kicks.
Hearing their wails, it was natural to think that they were evildoers who complained first.
This is the advantage of Liu Mingzhi explaining the situation in advance.
No matter who they are, they have preconceived notions, especially the presence of witness Zhou Yuhe, which is more convincing.
"Have you guys teased Miss Zhou?"
The prince looked solemnly at Du Yu and the others, who had bruises on their noses and swollen faces.
"Speak quickly, if you dare to tell a lie, I will punish you severely."
King Qing was also unwilling to lag behind and asked.
It seems that he has to compete with the prince for everything, but he is at a disadvantage invisibly.
"Your Highnesses, little Du Yu."
