After Plum Blossom Witch Mihong left, Huang Wuji also began to prepare to go to Fangwai. In order to minimize the risk of this trip, Huang Wuji was thinking about how to recover from his injuries in public.
Time will definitely not be suspected by others.
When the sky is cloudy and the rain is leaking, Kyoto has been very quiet recently. It seems that the aftermath of the death of Cui Hongyi, the former Minister of Punishment, has not yet passed.
Huang Wuji decided to stay in the prince's palace for a few days to pretend and see what the outside world was saying. Just when Huang Wuji was worrying about how to pretend to be injured, a memorial from Cai Hu had been sent to Emperor Tang.
in hand.
Looking at the memorial in his hand, Emperor Tang realized for the first time that his youngest son had really changed and had become a bit strange. He could kill a stranger. It was time for him to improve his memory.
Cai Hu had some influence on Emperor Tang, and seemed to be from the lineage of Lao Shisan. At that time, a lot of effort was spent on helping Cai Hu to be promoted to the post of governor of Xuzhou, but in the end he got it right.
The purpose of what the Tang Emperor did was to prevent the eldest prince's line from becoming dominant in the court. As a king, you must always show your majesty, let your presence exist in the hearts of every minister, and let the ministers have
feared.
"Come here!" Emperor Tang shouted majestically, and an old eunuch who was guarding outside the imperial study quickly ran in, knelt on the ground and pinched his throat and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, what are your orders?".
"According to my decree, the nineteenth prince Li He is arrogant and domineering, and has no regard for the king's laws. He pulled him to the Xuanwu Gate and punished a hundred people with a stick, as a warning to others!" There was no sloppiness in the words of Emperor Tang. This time he was determined and let the emperor
Infinitely long memory.
"Yes, maid, go and do it now!" The old eunuch took the imperial edict prepared by Emperor Tang early in the morning and walked out of the imperial study quickly. In the imperial study, Emperor Tang once again picked up the memorial in his hand and gave instructions one by one.
The old eunuch was not slow and quickly arrived at Huang Wuji's residence with a group of imperial guards. This was an aristocratic area, where all the princes and nobles lived. Seeing the posture of the imperial guards, they thought they were going to raid someone's house, so they all hid in the house.
He didn't dare to come out, so he excluded his servants and quietly followed behind to see what was going on.
In front of the prince's house, the old eunuch straightened his clothes and signaled the Imperial Guards to slow down. The prince was the one who was going to be slapped this time. Every prince had the qualifications to become a prince. If you offended here, don't expect anything good in the future.
day.
The guards of the Prince's Mansion were also startled by the Royal Guards. They thought something had happened, so they quickly came to the old eunuch and asked: "My father-in-law, what have you discovered?".
"Go and tell the Nineteenth Prince that we have come with a decree. Let the Nineteenth Prince come out to receive the decree!" The old eunuch said and raised the imperial edict in his hand. When the guard saw that it was true, he ran in quickly.
The guard did not report it directly to Huang Wuji, but went to the guard commander Li Chong. After hearing this, the guard commander Li Chong asked the guard some information and immediately turned around and walked towards Huang Wuji's room.
At this time, Huang Wuji was in the room worrying about how to cause an accident. "Bang bang bang!" The knock on the door interrupted his thoughts, he calmed down and said: "Come in!".
"Your Highness, something bad has happened. There is an imperial decree coming, and the person who comes is not good!" After the guard commander Li Chong finished speaking, Huang Wuji's face lit up, he really got what he wanted.
Li Chong, the commander of the guards, saw Huang Wuji's happy face and felt a little confused, but he didn't ask. He must have had some considerations for his master.
Huang Wuji put on the prince's uniform, which was a must-have for the Tang Dynasty when receiving orders. After putting on the prince's uniform, Huang Wuji walked towards the front yard in a hurry. The old eunuch felt a little angry after waiting for a long time, secretly
It’s strange that Emperor Wuji doesn’t know what’s good or bad.
Looking at the belated arrival of Huang Wuji, a trace of anger flashed in the old eunuch's eyes. After all, the old eunuch was also a person working around the Tang Emperor. The princes, nobles, empresses in the palace, and princes outside the palace all had to pay for him.
I don't dare to neglect my noodles, but this is the situation when I get to Huang Wuji.
"Your Highness, it's too slow!" the old eunuch said in a reproachful tone. Huang Wuji glanced at the old eunuch coldly, and his eyes clearly did not take him seriously, as if he was talking about a dog slave.
"You!" The old eunuch was so angry at Huang Wuji's eyes that he almost shouted loudly. This was the first time he had encountered such a person in many years. He now represents the Tang Emperor, and even a small prince dared to
It was unreasonable in front of the Tang Emperor.
"How dare you not kneel down to receive the order!" The old eunuch became angry and lost all scruples, shouting loudly.
"Slave dog, you are nothing but how dare you ask me to kneel down and bring me the imperial edict!" Huang Wuji snatched the imperial edict from the old eunuch's hand and slapped him in the face.
The old eunuch was so nakedly humiliated that he was trembling all over. His face turned red, blue, and white, and the three colors took turns. He pointed a finger at Huang Wuji and said nothing.
"Too much bullying!" The anger in the old eunuch's heart rushed to his head like a raging fire, and he shouted desperately: "Your Highness, I represent the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. You dare to steal the imperial edict, do you want to rebel?".
The old eunuch's words shocked the people around him. These words were completely heartbreaking. They just stole the imperial edict once and turned it into a rebellion. This scapegoat is big enough.
Huang Wuji didn't care at all and didn't even look at the old eunuch. He opened the imperial edict with one hand and read it. After seeing the content of the imperial edict, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
However, it cannot be revealed on the surface. After putting down the imperial edict, he didn't even look at the old eunuch. He said to the officer who seemed to be the leader of the Royal Forest Army: "Hey, hey, it's you. Let's go. It's just a hundred big boards. It's nothing big."
of!".
Huang Wuji led the imperial guards in a swaggering manner, regardless of the old eunuch's attitude, and walked directly out of the prince's palace towards the Xuanwu Gate. The princes and nobles along the way also got the news, but when they saw Huang Wuji's actions, they felt a little bit in their hearts.
Strange, is this going to be punished or to attend a banquet?
When they arrived at the Xuanwu Gate, there were already three executioners waiting there, and a bench was placed there quietly. Each of the executioners held a solid wood stick in their hands. People with slightly lower cultivation levels, in this kind of situation
You can't get better with a stick.
Huang Wuji didn't waste any time and immediately lay down on the bench. The executioner was stunned for a moment. He looked at the leader of the Royal Forest Army and had a strange expression on his face. This was the first time he had seen such a situation.
At this time, the old eunuch ran over panting, pointed at the executioner and shouted loudly: "Hit, hit hard, don't show mercy!".
The arrival of the old eunuch gave the executioner a direction, and he raised the stick in his hand and struck Huang Wuji hard on the buttocks. At this time, the princes, nobles and ministers who came to watch the excitement also arrived, and Huang Wuji's interest in the performance also increased.
was inspired.
Following Huang Wuji's shrill screams, the old eunuch felt a sense of relief for no reason. It seemed that the anger just now was extinguished by a basin of cold water, and he felt as comfortable as soaking in a hot spring.
The executioner's physical strength was also a problem when the executioner didn't let go of his strength. Soon the forehead was covered in hot sweat and the strength in his hands was much reduced.
"Ninety-nine, one hundred!" One of the executioners counted, and immediately called the other two to stop when they reached one hundred. At this time, Huang Wuji only made sounds of breathing and gasping, and he seemed to be dying.
There is a possibility of death at any time.
When the princes, nobles and ministers around saw Huang Wuji's appearance, they secretly calculated in their hearts that they would not be able to get out of bed for half a year. The old eunuch looked at Huang Wuji with a beaming look on his face, with a proud look on his face, and said to himself: "You little bastard,
If I make you look down on our family, this is what will happen!".
Li Chong, the commander of the guards who followed him from the prince's mansion, was also deceived by Huang Wuji. Seeing his master's miserable condition, he quickly asked someone to lift him up gently and rushed back to the mansion.
Huang Wuji groaned all the way as if he was about to faint, which made Li Chong, the commander of the guards, anxious and ordered a guard to find the imperial doctor. At this moment, Huang Wuji's hand moved and gently pulled Li Chong's hand.
Clothes corner, eyes blinked.
The guard commander Li Chong understood immediately, and quickly stopped the guard who was looking for the imperial doctor and said: "No need to go, I just remembered that there is a doctor in the house, no need to trouble the imperial doctor!".
The guards Li Chong brought with him were just ordinary guards in the mansion. Although these guards were wondering when the prince's mansion had a doctor, they did not dare to ask out their doubts.
Soon, the gate of the Prince's Mansion appeared in the eyes of the guard commander Li Chong. When he arrived at the gate, a man carried Huang Wuji on his back, and then said to the other guards: "Close the door, and say that starting from today, the Prince's Mansion will be closed for half a year."
Close the door to thank guests, and say whatever you say to anyone who asks!".
The guards accepted the order and thought it was human nature. The people who came to the door at this time were basically not friends, they should be the ones who came to ridicule!
