Chapter 155: Broken Sleeves

"Second brother!" Su Lanzhang pushed the door open and came in.

Su Fengzhang, who was applying medicine, quickly pulled his clothes together and frowned, "What are you doing rushing in? Didn't you knock before coming in?"

He moved very quickly, but Su Lanzhang still saw the wound on his back and screamed, "Second brother, you..."

Su Arong came over and covered his mouth with his hands. "Sanlang, stop yelling. The lady might hear you later."

Su Lanzhang nodded quickly, and Su Arong put his hand down. Su Lanzhang then asked hurriedly, "Second brother, what happened to you? Why are there wounds all over your back? When did you get injured?"

Su Fengzhang glared at him helplessly. "You asked so many questions in one breath. Which one do you want me to answer?"

Su Lanzhang frowned, but couldn't hide the worry in his eyes: "Second brother, are you still in pain?"

Su Fengzhang reached out and tapped his forehead, then said with a smile, "What's with that expression? Second Brother was just injured and is almost healed now. There's no need for you to look so sad."

Su Lanzhang sniffed and asked, "Second brother, how did you get hurt? Why didn't you tell us?"

Su Fengzhang explained, "I was accidentally injured. It's all in the past. Telling you about it would only make you worry."

"But..." After being in the capital for more than half a year, Su Lanzhang is no longer the silly little boy from Yuexi Village. He knows that although his brother downplays it, something that can injure an imperial official is definitely not a trivial matter.

"Okay, no buts. Now, besides Su Arong, you're the only one in the family who knows I'm injured. You have to keep this secret." Su Fengzhang patted his head and said, "You don't want Mom to worry too, right?"

Su Lanzhang nodded and said, "Second brother, I will help you keep the secret, but next time you have to ask me to apply the medicine. Arong is clumsy and will definitely hurt you."

Su Arong was unhappy after hearing this: "Sanlang, when have I been clumsy? It's you who are always clumsy. You even helped Erlang apply the medicine. Don't make his condition worse."

Su Fengzhang smiled and shook his head, then asked, "What were you doing barging in like that just now?"

Su Lanzhang then exclaimed, "Brother Meng and Brother He are here to visit. They're in the hall now. Mother asked me to come and call you."

"Why are they here at this time?" Su Fengzhang felt strange. Today was not a day off, but Meng Ting and He Tang came together. You know, it was already night.

He quickly put on his clothes. The medicine given by Doctor Wang had no smell, and there was nothing unusual once he put on the clothes. This was why Su Fengzhang was able to hide it from Su Zhaoshi.

The lights were on in the living room. Meng Ting and Tang were sitting side by side. Su Zhao had already brought them tea and snacks.

"Brother Meng, Brother He, why are you here at this time?"

"Brother Su." The two called out at the same time. Meng Ting said, "I just happened to be looking for you for something, but I didn't expect to run into Brother He at the door, so we just came over together."

Su Fengzhang asked curiously, "What's the urgent matter?"

"This..." Meng Ting subconsciously glanced at He Tang, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

He Tang also looked at the two of them and said through gritted teeth: "Brother Meng, maybe we are here to find Brother Su for the same thing."

"What's the matter that makes you two come to see me so late?" He and Meng Ting are colleagues in the Hanlin Academy. If it is not an urgent matter, Meng Ting can wait until tomorrow.

Meng Ting and Tang looked at each other, Meng Ting pointed to the sky, and Tang nodded.

He Tang sighed and said, "I'm afraid it is indeed one thing, so let me tell you first."

"Brother Su, did you meet the prince yesterday?"

Su Fengzhang wasn't surprised they knew this. The teahouse was crowded with people, and the Fourth Prince was always watching the Crown Prince. It was only a matter of time before these things got out. "Are you wondering why I offended the Crown Prince?"

He Tang's eyes were filled with worry: "That's exactly what happened, Brother Su. You know what kind of person the prince is. Why is he still..."

Su Fengzhang said helplessly: "This is not my wish, I really have no choice."

He Tang hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Today, I was painting for His Majesty in the palace, and happened to encounter the Fourth Prince in person. I barely overheard some of what he said. From what he said, the Crown Prince personally whipped you."

"What?" Meng Ting exclaimed in surprise, "The prince hit you, are you okay?"

He Tang was surprised when he heard this: "Why, Brother Meng, you rushed here in such a hurry, isn't it because of this?"

Meng Ting said: "No, Brother He, I thought you were here for the Fifth Prince's matter as well."

He Tang heard this and said, "The Fifth Prince? He is indeed involved. Brother Su was able to escape unscathed in the end thanks to the Fifth Prince's mediation."

"Brother Su, the Fourth Prince has complained to the Crown Prince in front of His Majesty. Now the Crown Prince must hate you even more. You...you must be more careful in the future." In fact, as an official from the southern lineage, although He Tang had no contact with the Crown Prince, he had no good feelings towards him, so he hurried over after hearing about this.

"The Crown Prince has always disliked us southern scholars. With him around, even if we are extremely careful, it won't be enough." Compared to He Tang, Meng Ting was completely the Fourth Prince's man, and he felt even more indignant.

"Brother Su, if you ask me, the prince is being unreasonable. Let's just go for it and file a complaint against him in front of the emperor." Meng Ting said.

It was naturally impossible for Su Fengzhang to complain to the emperor, not to mention that the prince had found a reason. Even if he punished the officials for no reason, would the emperor really punish the prince?

It is possible if we replace him with an emperor who is clear about rewards and punishments and strict in governing his people.

But the current emperor is notoriously partial. A legitimate daughter of the Xu family died. In the end, the crown prince and the fourth prince were only confined to their homes for a few days, and the ones who suffered were all the officials around them.

Su Fengzhang did not argue with Meng Ting, but simply asked, "Brother Meng, you didn't come here just to ask the Fifth Prince to save me, did you?"

Meng Ting seemed to be hesitant to speak, and seemed to be having trouble opening the mouth.

Seeing this, Su Fengzhang could only say, "Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

After hearing this, Meng Ting said, "Brother Su, I'll be frank. If there's anything I said that's not right, don't mind. I definitely don't mean to slander you or look down on you!"

Su Fengzhang felt even more puzzled. Meng Ting had always been a straightforward person. To put it bluntly, he was a little outspoken from time to time. What was it that made him feel a little difficult to say?

Meng Ting gritted his teeth and said, "I heard this from the place where fireworks are held. Rumor has it that the Fifth Prince is in love with Brother Su, and that's why he's willing to go against the Crown Prince to save you, Brother Su."

"What?!" Su Fengzhang felt a little dizzy when he suddenly heard this.

"Brother Su, don't you know?" Meng Ting continued, "The Fourth Prince and the Fifth Prince are only one year apart in age. Now the Fourth Prince has three children, but the Fifth Prince is still unmarried. Don't you find it strange?"

He Tang asked curiously, "The Fifth Prince hasn't married yet?"

Meng Ting glanced at them helplessly and said, "Indeed, the Fourth Prince has moved out of the palace after getting married, but the Fifth Prince still lives deep in the palace and is unmarried."

He Tang asked: "Why is this? Does he have a hidden illness?"

"It's not a hidden illness." Meng Ting thought for a moment and then said, "It can be considered a hidden illness."

"Is that true?" He Tang asked hurriedly.

Meng Ting then lowered his voice and said, "I've said this. It's out of my mouth and into your ears. You must never tell anyone else. Otherwise, if it gets out, the three of us will suffer."

Su Fengzhang and Tang naturally agreed.

Meng Ting personally went to check the gatehouse and confirmed that no one was around before saying, "The Fifth Prince, that's the one!"

Su Fengzhang and Tang looked at each other: "Which one?"

"That, that's it!" Meng Ting tugged at Su Fengzhang's sleeve, "Broken Sleeve!"

"The fifth prince is a homosexual!" He Tang screamed, frightening the two people next to him so much that they quickly covered his mouth.

Meng Ting cursed, "You want to die! If this gets out, no one will survive."

Su Fengzhang was more rational and asked, "Since it is a confidential matter, how did you know?"

"It's not really a secret. I'm sure everyone in the capital who should know already knows about it. It's just that we just arrived in the capital, and everyone is keeping their mouths shut about this matter, so we have no way of knowing."

"It is said that when this incident was reported, His Majesty was furious and severely punished a group of people. He also exiled the Fifth Prince to Qingzhou to do the hard work of river management. He stayed there for two years before being allowed to return to the capital."

"After that, everyone knew about it, but no one dared to talk about it openly."

"The Fifth Prince's marriage was delayed, and His Majesty agreed to it. The major families also breathed a sigh of relief."

Su Fengzhang felt that something was wrong. Even if his son was gay, it would not delay marriage. The emperor did not seem like the kind of person who would consider whether the future princess would live a happy life. After discovering that his son was gay, it would be more reasonable for him to arrange a marriage directly.

But now, not only did the emperor not arrange a marriage, but he allowed the fifth prince to live in the palace and adopted a laissez-faire attitude, which was totally inconsistent with the temperament of an emperor.

Sweeping away these suspicions, Su Fengzhang continued, "Even if the Fifth Prince is gay, what does it have to do with me?"

Meng Ting looked at him with some sympathy: "This is a big deal. The Fifth Prince has taken a fancy to you now!"

"What!" He Tang shouted again, then he lowered his voice and said, "What should I do?"

Su Fengzhang's expression was also a bit strange, but he still said, "What are you imagining? The Fifth Prince only came to our aid that day because he saw injustice. There's no such thing as this."

Meng Ting and Tang looked at him in unison. The more they looked, the more they felt that this was not a rumor. Su Fengzhang had fair skin, was handsome, kept himself clean and had no wives or concubines at home. More importantly, he was extremely talented and was a man of both inner and outer talent.

Especially now under the candlelight, Su Fengzhang looks even more outstanding in the light and shadow.

He Tang swallowed his saliva and said, "If I were gay, I would also like someone like Brother Su."
