"Hmph~! Zhao Song has been tortured by you brat, and you still have time to sneer here~!"
In the front hall of the Qin Mansion, while everyone was discussing the magical functions of Tai Chi, a powerful voice suddenly came from outside the door, and then Li Er, dressed in regular clothes, stepped into the main hall.
Everyone in the room couldn't help being shocked, and quickly stood up and saluted: "See you, Your Majesty~!"
Li Er waved his hand and said: "I am here today to congratulate Shubao on his recovery, no need to be polite~!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Qiong said gratefully: "I'm scared, my Majesty, thank you for your trouble~!"
Li Er stepped forward and personally helped Qin Qiong up, and said with a smile: "Shu Bao is the pillar of the country, isn't it my duty to care about him~?"
Qin Qiong's lips moved slightly and she said in a trembling voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty~!"
Li Er smiled, and then he did not say hello to the other ministers in the room. He looked directly at Li Zexuan, paused, and then said: "Zhao Song tried to forcefully break through last night, and he used the Qi compressing device you mentioned last time. As a result, 30% of his meridians were damaged. If the two royal ministers had not given their full help at the last moment, his life would have been lost~! Even so, his strength has dropped from the peak of a master to the early stage of a master~! "
Li Zexuan opened his mouth in shock. He never expected that lunatic Zhao Song would actually dare to play like this, and he would play it so big that it would go to heaven~! He wiped the sweat from his forehead (I don't know if it was cold or hot) and said:
"Your Majesty, why is Mr. Zhao so anxious to break through the situation~?"
To be reasonable, now that the Tang Dynasty is at peace, although there are Turks in the north who are eyeing it, these national events cannot be a eunuch's turn to worry about, right? So what reason does Zhao Song have to rush to break through~?
Putting aside the self-blame in his heart, Li Zexuan was very curious about the reason why Zhao Song was eager to break through.
Li Er was obviously very speechless about this. He looked away and was silent for a long time, as if he was considering his words, and then he said angrily:
"What he means is that he recently saw Dugu Xin break through to the master level at a young age. With you, there are two younger martial arts masters. He feels the pressure and feels that if he doesn't take the risk and try, he will wait until he gets older. He had no chance at all, so he took a desperate risk last night, and the result...the result, if the two royal ministers hadn't been present, he would have risked his own life~!"
Li Zexuan couldn't help but break into a cold sweat after considering the cause and effect. If Zhao Song really lost his life because of compressing the Qi to practice, then even if he was not punished by Li Er, he would probably not be able to feel at ease.
He thought for a moment, then stepped forward and bowed: "It's all because of my inarticulate speech in the court that day, which misled General Manager Zhao and almost caused him to die. Please punish me~!"
This apology contains three parts of Li Zexuan's guilt, and seven parts of retreating in order to advance, because when Li Er first came in, his tone was obviously not good, and Lao Li came with a bad temper today~!
Seeing this, Qin Qiong stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, if we look into this matter more deeply, no wonder Xiaoxuan, when Eunuch Zhao used the method of compressing the true energy to break through, he himself must have known the danger, but he still did that If you do it, you can’t blame Xiaoxuan~!”
Cheng Yaojin then echoed in a rough voice: "Your Majesty, Xiaoxuan is really not to blame for this~! There were so many ministers and generals in the court that day, and Eunuch Zhao was not the only one who knew how to compress the true energy. Yes, no one else had an accident, only Eunuch Zhao had an accident, can you blame Xiaoxuan~?"
Li Jing also rarely spoke and said: "Your Majesty, what Shu Bao and Zhi Jie said is right. Eunuch Zhao has passed his forties and is not a three-year-old child. There is no reason for him to blame others for his own decisions. I think Zhao must have My father-in-law himself has never blamed Xiaoxuan~!"
Li Er saw that everyone in the room was speaking for Li Zexuan. His face was indifferent, and he could not see any emotion or anger. He paused and said, "I haven't convicted this boy yet. Why are you all doing this?" Anxious~?”
Then he turned to Li Zexuan and said: "Although you are not to blame for what happened to Zhao Song, it was partly because of you. However, today Shu Bao was injured and broken again because of you. You, boy, have saved another member of the Tang Dynasty for me." Tiger General, nothing can be exchanged for this. In the end, the merits outweigh the faults. I will give your wife a sixth-grade imperial edict as your reward this time. Do you have any complaints~?"
Li Zexuan said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have no complaints~!"
The longer he gets along with Han Yuxi, the more Li Zexuan understands the inferiority complex in Han Yuxi's bones. He is getting higher and higher now, but the pressure on Han Yuxi is getting bigger and bigger. He is also very distressed sometimes. He just wants to get over it. There is no interference from any external factors, and the family lives a simple and happy life together, but Han Yuxi still can't get rid of the worldly concept of being a good match in her heart.
Maybe she agreed to marry him because she was just moved by his persistent pursuit, but since marrying into the Li family, she has never had a moment of leisure. She studies this and that every day, and even learns poetry and calligraphy. Li Zexuan once told her No, she said she wanted to improve, she wanted to be worthy of him.
Humble love, humble self, many people think that this kind of humble love is not worth cherishing, but Li Zexuan doesn't think so.
In love, if some people love more, others will naturally love less. They cannot be equal. People who love more will give more and suffer more. This is not because she is being mean, it is because she loves him and doesn’t want to lose him~!
After understanding this, Li Zexuan will no longer cherish this relationship, and will only feel that this woman is really distressing~!
The sixth-grade imperial edict that Li Er gave to Han Yuxi today was a timely blessing. In this era, imperial edicts were very rare. When a sixth-grade imperial edict was placed in a local place, the county magistrates had to perform the courtesy of lowering the official to meet him.
Li Er nodded, Qin Qiong and others quickly clasped their fists and said, "Your Majesty, you are wise~!"
Li Er laughed loudly and said: "Okay~! Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm really happy that Uncle Bao has recovered today~! Zhijie, pharmacist, Jinda, Jingde, since you are here, let's Don’t leave, we monarchs and ministers are just here to celebrate with wine today, we won’t go back until we get drunk~!”
Speaking of drinking, Cheng Yaojin suddenly became excited. He didn't care about the etiquette of monarchs and ministers. He clapped his arms and laughed loudly: "Okay~! We originally planned to have a drink at the second brother's place at noon. Your Majesty is here. Just in time~! By the way, we brothers haven’t had wine with His Majesty at the same table for a year, right~? Haha~! Yes, yes, yes, Xiaoxuan is here today. This guy’s cooking skills are incredible, so it’s just the right time to go Wouldn't it be wonderful to cook a few plates of good food for us to go with the wine~?"
