Li Mu completely told Li Shimin how Sun Simiao helped Yuchi Baolin treat him.
After hearing this, Li Shimin frowned deeply and said, "Go to Chai Shao yourself and tell Chai Shao about this matter. He knows what to do."
"Yes!" Li Mu bowed and retreated.
Empress Changsun walked behind Li Shimin, put her hands on Li Shimin's temples, and pressed them gently.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Duke Qiao knows what to do." Queen Changsun said.
Li Shimin closed his eyes comfortably and said, "I'm just afraid that he won't be able to let go."
If Yuchi Baolin only had a sprain, it would be normal for him to fine him with firewood and ban him from martial arts for half a year.
Even if Yuchi Gong was dissatisfied, he would not do anything to Chai Lingwu when his anger subsided.
But now that Yuchi Baolin is almost destroyed, how can Yuchi Gong be willing to do so?
If Yuchi Gong is not given an explanation, Yuchi Gong will definitely take revenge on Chai Lingwu.
Whether it is Yuchi Gong or Chai Shao, they all have some good relationships. If one of them is not handled well, it may cause turmoil in the court.
Empress Changsun consoled her: "Duke Qiao is a sensible man, and he also understands the seriousness of the matter."
Li Shimin murmured: "I hope so!"
Li Shimin had always thought that Chai Lingwu was pretty good, but he didn't expect that he was so narrow-minded.
Li Shimin even regretted betrothing Princess Baling to him.
…
Li Mu came to the Duke of Qiao's Mansion and told Chai Shao the matter according to Li Shimin's instructions.
Chai Shao looked expressionless and asked, "What does your Majesty mean?"
Li Mu said: "Your Majesty said that Duke Qiao will know what to do after hearing this."
Chai Shao nodded and said, "Excuse me, Eunuch Li, please report back to Your Majesty. I know what to do."
Li Mu cupped his hands and said: "I know this. If Duke Qiao has nothing else to do, I will return to the palace first!"
Chai Shao said: "I'll give Eunuch Li a gift."
Li Mu smiled and said: "The Duke of Qiao has something to do, so there is no need to send him away."
"I really have something to do, so I'll see you off not far away."
Although Chai Shao said this, he still sent Li Mu out of the hall.
Seeing Li Mu's figure disappear, Chai Shao stood at the door in a daze.
Li Shimin asked him to give Yu Chigong an explanation and let Yuchi Gong calm down.
Putting it into perspective, if his eldest son Chai Zhewei encountered this situation, he would definitely go crazy.
If Yu Chigong is not allowed to calm down, who knows what Yuchi Gong will do.
Chai Shao understood this truth, but found it difficult to accept it.
But it’s hard to accept, so I still have to accept it.
"Come here! Call Erlang." Chai Shao ordered.
"Yes!" Someone immediately ran to find Chai Lingwu.
Chai Shao then ordered someone to find a stick and sat down in the hall to wait.
Not long after, Chai Zhewei and Chai Lingwu walked in.
"Dad!" The two of them saluted Chai Shao.
Chai Shao nodded, without looking at Chai Lingwu, and said to Chai Zhewei: "Sit down!"
"Thank you dad!" Chai Zhewei sat down.
Chai Lingwu didn't notice anything unusual about Chai Shao and sat down.
Chai Shao said in a deep voice: "I asked you to sit down?"
Chai Lingwu was stunned and said: "Dad, the child is just grounded. Why don't you let me sit down?"
Chai Shao said coldly: "If it weren't for Sun Simiao, Yuchi Baolin would have almost been disabled!"
"Isn't he not disabled? Besides, His Majesty has already punished me." Chai Lingwu said disdainfully, with some pity in his tone.
"boom!"
Chai Shao slapped his hand on the coffee table and said angrily: "You bastard, you still don't understand the seriousness of the matter? Come on!"
"Master!"
Four soldiers in armor walked in from outside the hall and bowed.
"Catch this traitor, I will enforce the family law!" Chai Shao said coldly.
Those soldiers only listened to Chai Shao, but regardless of whether Chai Lingwu was the second master or not, after hearing Chai Shao's order, they stepped forward and caught Chai Lingwu.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Chai Lingwu shouted with a panicked expression.
"What are you doing? I'm going to beat you to death, you traitor!" Chai Shao grabbed the stick on one side and was about to hit Chai Lingwu.
"Dad, second brother already knows that he was wrong." Chai Zhewei quickly stopped in front of Chai Lingwu and said to Chai Lingwu anxiously: "Second brother, admit your mistake quickly."
Chai Lingwu said with a panicked expression: "Dad, I know I was wrong."
Chai Shao also had a hint of intolerance, but he quickly put it away and said: "It's too late. Your Majesty asked me to give an explanation to Yuchi Gong, so I must give him an explanation. Wei'er, get out of the way!
"
When Chai Zhewei heard that it was Li Shimin's request, he did not dare to stop him anymore and had to get out of the way.
Chai Lingwu said in panic: "Dad, Your Majesty is my uncle, why do you still need to answer to that old man Yuchi Gong?"
"Shut up!" Chai Shao shouted and said, "Someone, drag him into the yard."
The soldiers did not hesitate at all and carried Chai Lingwu out. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free.
"Dad, my second brother is spoiled and weak. It's better to just pretend and deal with it." Chai Zhewei said in a low voice.
Chai Shao glared at him and said, "Can Yuchi Gong tell if it's true?"
It's okay to fool others with this kind of thing, but how can it fool Yu Chigong?
"Dad, our family is not afraid of him. As long as he gets through, there is no reason for Yuchi Gong to hold back, right?" Chai Zhewei said.
Chai Shao looked at Chai Zhewei and said, "Do you think I did this because I was afraid of Yuchi Gong? I did this to protect Ling Wu!"
Chai Zhewei looked at Chai Shao with some confusion.
Chai Shao sighed and said: "Ling Wu plotted against Yuchi Baolin, and Yuchi Baolin is Yuchi Gong's successor. Whether it is to establish his authority or to protect Yuchi Baolin, Yuchi Gong must do something."
"If I fight Lingwu, he will only suffer some physical pain. If I wait for Yuchi Gong to take action, it will not be so simple."
Chai Zhewei said with some disbelief: "Yu Chi Gong dares to attack his second brother?"
Chai Shao snorted coldly and said: "Why don't you dare? This matter was originally our fault. If Yuchi Baolin only recovered from the sprain, but this time he was almost disabled. As long as he didn't kill Ling Wu, His Majesty would not pursue it. Otherwise
Why do you think His Majesty sent someone to tell me?"
The eldest son is the hope of the family's future inheritance, and cannot be compared with other heirs.
Li Shimin's face appeared in Chai Zhewei's mind.
He really couldn't believe that his uncle who was very good to him and Chai Lingwu would make such a decision.
But there was a voice in his heart telling him that his father did not lie to him and that everything was true.
Chai Shao ignored Chai Zhewei and went directly to the yard with the stick in hand.
"Dad, I know I'm wrong, please go around me!" Chai Lingwu was pressed on a bench. When he heard the footsteps, he shouted quickly.
Chai Shao didn't say anything. He walked to Chai Lingwu and said, "I hope this beating today will make you sensible."
After saying that, Chai Shao raised his stick, gritted his teeth, and swung it down!
"Ah...ah~Dad, get around the child!"
When Chai Shao heard Chai Lingwu's cry, he felt very distressed, but he did not stop his movements and struck him with a stick one after another.
When Chai Zhewei heard Chai Lingwu's screams, he came to his senses and hurriedly ran to the yard.
"Ah...ah~ Dad, you might as well kill me!"
Chai Lingwu, who had been beaten more than a dozen times, was already a little hoarse in his screams.
Chai Zhewei advised: "Dad, it's almost done. If we continue to fight, my second brother will be dead!"
Chai Shao ignored him and struck him with a dozen more sticks, then dropped the stick and said, "Tear off his coat and carry him with me to the Duke of E's Mansion!"
