Chapter 590 Untie the knot(1/2)
Seeing Yang Fan coming out, His Majesty Li Er asked anxiously: "How is Li Zhi's injury?"
"We are not out of danger yet. As long as we survive tonight and wake up tomorrow, there will be no big problem." Yang Fan said softly, looking a little worried.
His Majesty Li Er's eyes widened, he raised his foot and kicked Yang Fan staggering, and cursed: "In order to prevent you from being in danger, beauty, you actually risked your life, how can you be so virtuous and capable?"
"If beauty has two shortcomings, even if you are crushed to pieces, it will not be worth a hair of beauty. If you dare to betray beauty in the future, I will chop off your head."
After being kicked by Li Er, Yang Fan remained silent. He could completely understand Li Er's feelings as a father.
When his children are hurt, as a father, his worry, resentment, self-blame and helplessness are simply beyond words. Li Er wants to find someone to vent to.
It is undeniable that all this is caused by His Majesty Li Er's pride.
But as an emperor, Li Er was indeed too kind to his daughter.
Cheng Yaojin endured the pain and quickly advised: "Your Majesty, don't blame Wannian County Duke, everything is caused by those rebellious ministers and traitors."
Seeing Cheng Yaojin's body covered with wounds, His Majesty Li Er's anger in his heart eased slightly, and he even felt a little lucky.
He really didn't expect that people like Li Yuanchang and Hou Junji could gather so many people, and he didn't expect that Hou Junji was so cunning that he actually committed a murder with a borrowed knife.
Fortunately, Yang Fan saw through the conspiracy of Hou Junji and Helan Chushi, and if he followed them back to the palace, he would be surprised.
The emperor must have fallen into the hands of these people through mental calculations and unintentional calculations, and the consequences are definitely something that Li Er can bear!
Thinking of Yang Fan reminding him several times to strike first, leading his guards to withstand the fierce attacks of Li Yuanchang and Hou Junji, and even seeing through Hou Junji's plan at the most critical moment.
No matter from which point of view, Yang Fan has made great achievements.
The reason why Li Er was angry was because his daughter had a life-threatening incident in order to protect Yang Fan, and he felt a little jealous.
But let it be said, as long as Yang Fan is here, everything can be done with ease and danger can be turned into safety. It is really a great blessing.
Today, Yang Fan risked his life several times to save himself from danger. In fact, Li Er was very grateful in his heart.
But how did Li Er know that if Li Er wasn't about to go to Jiangnan and Li Er was seeking death, Yang Fan wouldn't want to care about his life or death.
From the bottom of his heart, what Yang Fan cared about was that he was afraid that Chang Le and Gao Yang would be sad.
Seeing that Yang Fan was being scolded honestly, His Majesty Li Er asked again: "How is Changle doing now? Can you go in and visit?"
Yang Fan nodded lightly and said sadly: "Lizi is bleeding too much and is in a coma. Of course, as long as it's not too noisy, you can still go in and have a look..."
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er walked in impatiently.
I saw a brocade quilt covering the soft bed, and on it lay Princess Changle, whose face was bloodless and had passed out.
His Majesty Li Er felt as if his heart was being pinched severely, and he almost staggered. The old eunuch Wang Huangui on the side quickly held him up.
Looking at the extremely ugly bandages wrapped around the wound, His Majesty Li Er said displeasedly: "Did you handle this bandage?"
"It's Wei Chen." Yang Fan stepped forward and said loudly.
His Majesty Li Er became angry again and shouted loudly: "That's nonsense. You don't know how to bandage, why didn't you call the imperial doctor? Besides, beauty is a precious thing, but you bastard is so perfunctory and careless. If an accident happens,
Even ten of your heads are not enough!"
Yang Fan twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled bitterly.
He felt that His Majesty Li Er was obviously concerned but confused. He was a completely irrational father and there was no reason to explain at all.
I don't know what Princess Changle actually heard, or whether it was a subconscious reaction, her pale lips squirmed slightly.
"Father, it's not Lang Jun's fault for this. If Li Zhi had not made a decisive decision at that time and escaped from Helan Chushi's control, both my father and Lang Jun would have been helpless, and the consequences would be really unimaginable."
His Majesty Li Er was overjoyed. He leaned down and called softly: "Li Zhi, are you awake? Don't worry, my father is by your side, don't be afraid!"
Unfortunately, Li Er did not get a response from his daughter, and it was obviously because he was subconsciously talking in his sleep.
However, Li Er did not get angry at Yang Fan again.
From the bottom of his heart, he actually did not resent Yang Fan, but rather blamed himself for his willful behavior.
Of course, it was more because my daughter was willing to stop Yang Fan from committing a dangerous crime and almost lost his life, which made her feel a little depressed and jealous!
My own daughter has a noble status, so why is she so devoted to Yang Fan just after she got married?
Seeing that his daughter did not respond, Li Er took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, turned to Cheng Yaojin who was standing by and said: "You immediately send someone to inform Yuchi Gong, once Taoist priest Sun Simiao comes to treat Changle
Bring them in directly to the injured area. Now the Lishan Palace is surrounded by Nanya imperial guards. Without the imperial order, we can neither go up the mountain nor get out."
"No!" Cheng Yaojin immediately accepted the order and left quickly.
Yang Fan suddenly realized that with such a huge change, Li Er would not dare to be careless in the slightest.
Naturally, the Lishan Palace will be under martial law and a blanket search will be conducted for the rebels.
Even if Xi Junmai could bring Sun Simiao to Lishan Mountain, he would not be able to fly to the Lishan Palace even if he had wings.
In his opinion, the reason why Yang Fan would not bandage or let the imperial doctor do it was because he was obviously waiting for Sun Simiao.
Seeing Cheng Yaojin leaving, His Majesty Li Er paused and then told Wang Huangui: "Pass on my order and order people to go to Chang'an City and ask the chief officials of Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Yushitai to come to see me.
.”
"I want to immediately try the relevant personnel of this rebellion. As long as they are directly involved, no matter who is involved, whether it is the founding meritorious service or the royal family members, once they participate, they must be severely punished!"
In ancient times, many things could not be decided by the emperor with just one word.
Especially for some extremely involved cases, if you want to be convincing, you must have a public trial.
In the Tang Dynasty, Dali Temple served as the highest judicial organ, equivalent to the Supreme People's Court in later generations.
Regardless of whether they are relatives of the emperor or high-ranking officials, they are all qualified to hear the case.
The Ministry of Criminal Justice is a judicial investigation agency that is responsible for interrogating low-level officials and verifying evidence from all parties. It is actually equivalent to the public security agency in later generations.
The Yushitai is a supervisory organ responsible for supervising the judicial activities of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment, and preventing unjust, false and wrongful convictions.
Of course, sometimes I also participate in the trial of certain cases.
Therefore, in fact, the division of labor among the three divisions in ancient times was not as clear as that in later generations of public prosecutors and prosecutors.
Therefore, in ancient times, whenever a major case was encountered, the minister of Dali Temple, the Minister of Punishment, and the Censor Zhongcheng would jointly try it, which was often called the "Trial of the Three Divisions"!
Due to the sudden incident, none of the chief officials of the Third Division Yamen were in Lishan, and the situation in Chang'an City was now unclear. His Majesty Li Er certainly did not want to take risks easily, so it was the safest way to ask the chief officials of the Third Division to come to Lishan for an audience.
Wang Huangui took the order and left: "I obey the order. I will go and make arrangements now."
As soon as the old eunuch left, there was a burst of noise outside the palace, and His Majesty Li Er's face suddenly darkened.
Soon Li Junxian went inside and reported: "Your Majesty, some of the officials who went up to the mountain to cause trouble have already confessed. Many of them claimed that they were instigated by others. This is a confession..."
Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er was uncertain, his face turned red and white.
He hesitated in his heart. If all these people were investigated, tens of thousands of people might be involved.
She looked at Princess Jinyang who was lying unconscious next to her, then raised her eyes to look at Yang Fan and said softly:
"I will go meet these people first. When Taoist Master Sun Simiao arrives, you can come over quickly."
With that said, Li Er glanced at his daughter and walked towards the temporary office next to him.
For a moment, the whole thing became normal and quiet.
And Yang Fan looked at the limp Princess Changle who was unconscious. She seemed to be experiencing a nightmare at this time. She frowned slightly, struggled for breath, and murmured in a vague voice: "Husband... don't leave me...
...If Changle does something wrong, I can change it...there are bad people...be careful..."
As she struggled, blood soaked out of the bandaged wound again, dyeing the white bandage blood red.
Yang Fan's heart couldn't help but twitch.
Yang Fan was actually very conflicted about how to treat Princess Changle.
In terms of aesthetics and personality, Princess Changle is the best choice for a wife.
Unfortunately, because of her relationship with her eldest grandson Wugou, Yang Fan kept aloof from her during this period.
This is also the reason why Yang Fan has not consummated his marriage with Princess Changle even though it has been almost a month since they got married.
Because Yang Fan was afraid in his heart, he was afraid that he could not handle the relationship between them well and hurt Princess Changle's heart.
But now Yang Fan is completely relieved.
Since Princess Changle is so devoted to herself, why should I look forward and backward?
What's more, in ancient times, it was not uncommon for mothers and daughters to serve the same husband. What's the big deal?
If you really have no face to face His Majesty Li Er, the most you can do is take your own woman and settle overseas in the future.
After thinking about it, Yang Fan no longer struggled, leaned over and sat next to Princess Changle, and whispered something softly into her ear.
After a long while, Princess Changle gradually calmed down and fell asleep peacefully, with a smile on her lips.
When it got completely dark, Xi Junmai also arrived with Sun Simiao.
After a diagnosis and treatment, Princess Changle's injury was completely stabilized.
****
It was getting late, but the lights inside a palace in Lishan Mountain were brightly lit.
Li Yuanchang, Hou Junji and others were killed one after another, and the rebels who conspired to rebel were quickly annihilated under the joint attack of Nanya Forbidden Army and Zuowu Wei.
