Chapter 39 Your Majesty, Youyou wants to complain
Cong An ran over and knelt on the ground. With trembling hands, he wanted to hug his own prince, but he didn't dare to touch him. He stretched his hands in the air at a loss: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
The Thirteenth Prince originally wanted to kill Xue Yili to prevent future troubles, but he was only ten years old after all. When he saw the blood flowing from Xue Yili's shoulder and half of his clothes were red, he panicked and forgot to throw away the dagger in his hand. With a look of horror in his eyes, he kept making excuses: "I didn't do it. It wasn't me. It really wasn't me."
Just now Xue Yili deliberately adjusted his position, with his back to the crowd, so everyone only saw the Thirteenth Prince chasing and stabbing Xue Yili, and did not see the brief confrontation and incident between the two.
Therefore, even if the Thirteenth Prince was telling the truth, no one believed him.
Hong Yu ran up to him with a cold face, stepped forward and snatched the dagger from the Thirteenth Prince's hand, and ordered the eunuch who brought him with him: "Go and call the imperial physician, quickly."
The young eunuch agreed and ran away.
Hong Yu then instructed another eunuch: "Help the Thirteenth Prince."
There are no fools in Furong Palace. The young eunuch immediately understood what Hong Yu meant. He stepped forward and held the Thirteenth Prince, whose hands were stained with blood, tightly to prevent him from going crazy again.
The two young eunuchs brought by the Thirteenth Prince were so frightened when they saw a real bloody incident that they sat paralyzed on the ground and could not even stand up.
Xue Yili's face turned pale, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his voice was weak: "Cong'an, I may die. If I die, please ask His Majesty to let you go home."
Cong An cried loudly: "Your Highness, if you die, I will not live either."
Hong Yu squatted down, gently cut open the clothes on Xue Yili's shoulders with the dagger in her hand, took out a handkerchief, carefully wiped the blood, and carefully examined the wound.
Seeing that it was only a superficial wound, Hong Yu felt relieved and said, "Don't worry, young prince, there is no injury to the bones."
Cong An was so happy that he burst into tears. He put his hands together, swayed his body back and forth, and kept bowing: "Thank God, Your Highness, you will not die, you will not die."
Xue Yili knew, of course, that he would not die. He stabbed the man himself, controlling the force and avoiding the vital parts. He would definitely not die or become disabled. Otherwise, he would be extremely stupid.
But he has to pretend and make trouble.
He didn't know how long he would have to stay in Dasheng, so he had to make a big fuss about this matter and bring it to the attention of that old Emperor Wen Zhao.
Otherwise, it will be the same as before, with one person giving me some medicine today and another doing something bad behind my back tomorrow. There will be no peace in the life, and it will be very annoying to be on guard day and night.
"Will I not die?" Xue Yili looked at Hong Yu with a frightened look in his eyes.
"You won't die. I'll apply some medicine to stop the bleeding first, and then let the imperial physician take a look." Hong Yu comforted him. She reached out and took out a bottle of medicine powder from her waist, unscrewed the lid, sprinkled it on the wound on Xue Yili's shoulder, and pressed it with a handkerchief to stop the bleeding.
Xue Yili nodded: "Thank you, Sister Hongyu."
Cong'an also bowed to Hongyu, expressing his gratitude: "Thank you, sister Hongyu, for saving me."
Hong Yu nodded without saying anything more. She continued to press the wound, waiting for the bleeding to stop.
When the Thirteenth Prince heard that Xue Yili would not die, his legs went weak and he could not even stand. Two young eunuchs simply held his arms and lifted him up.
The Fifteenth Prince folded his arms and looked coldly at the Thirteenth Prince.
The Fourteenth Prince was frightened by the Thirteenth Prince's previous crazy behavior. He stood stupidly beside the Fifteenth Prince, and seeing the madman looking at his brother whom he once followed in the same way, he felt a pang of fear in his heart.
He heard the mysterious man say that Thirteen would kill him in the future, but he never thought of killing Thirteen first. He was even hesitant about breaking off contact with him.
After all, the man's origin was unknown, and it was unknown whether what he said was true or false.
Moreover, he and Shisan grew up together, and they had been brothers for many years, but he had to give up their relationship all of a sudden. He was really sad.
But unexpectedly, Thirteen would come here directly to kill Little Proton.
Thirteen. He is so scary.
Regardless of whether what the man said was true or false, he would stay away from Thirteen from now on.
After a while, the blood on Xue Yili's shoulder stopped flowing. Hong Yu took her hand away and reached out to pick up the little boy: "Little Prince, I'll take you inside and call the imperial physician."
"Sister Hongyu, I want to see His Majesty." Xue Yili shook his head and handed his hand to Cong'an, who carefully picked him up horizontally.
Hong Yu looked at the little proton held by Cong An and confirmed, "Your Highness, the imperial physician should be here soon. How about letting the imperial physician examine him first before going to see His Majesty?"
Xue Yili shook his head: "I'm fine for now, so I'll just go like this, so as not to delay everyone's business. I can go to the Imperial Hospital to have a look later. My place is remote, and it's not good to trouble the Imperial Doctor to run so far."
Hong Yu thought about it for a moment and then realized that this little proton wanted to show his majesty his miserable appearance.
She thought it was okay. Anyway, this Thirteenth Prince and his mother, Concubine Li, were both stupid and vicious people. The Empress and her own queen had never liked them. Since this little hostage wanted to see His Majesty, she would help him.
"Okay, but you have to come with me to meet the Royal Concubine first." Hong Yu nodded, turned around and led the way. The little eunuch carried the Thirteenth Prince and followed closely. The Fourteenth Prince and the Fifteenth Prince also followed them out.
Cong An, holding Xue Yili, walked at the end. When they reached the door, he looked at the two eunuchs still sitting on the ground and said in a stern tone, "Get out! You are not welcome here."
Seeing Hong Yu taking the frightened Thirteenth Prince to see His Majesty, the two were terrified. They stood up and crawled, walked out of the door, ran back along the wall, and hurried to find Concubine Li.
When Hong Yu came, the two of them were restrained by Cong An's stick and could not do anything, so Hong Yu ignored them. Even if they did something wrong, their master was here, so they could not run away.
---
The Royal Concubine held Xiaojiu in her arms, peeled melon seeds for the little girl, and listened to Yiwa and Yitong chatting. However, they didn't talk about anything important during this time, just idle chatter.
As they talked, Tong began to praise the baby, and the baby also began to praise Tong. They praised each other back and forth, which made the imperial concubine laugh.
Just as he was laughing, Qingshuang came back to report that she had asked the imperial physician to examine Concubine Chun and prescribed some medicine. The Royal Concubine nodded, indicating that she understood.
Not long after Qingshuang left, Hongyu came back and walked in with a serious face: "Your Majesty, the three princes are here, and the little prince of Dayao is here too, they..."
Hong Yu succinctly explained what had just happened.
Ji Jinyou was stunned when he heard this. [Everyone, the Thirteenth Prince went to kill the little proton. Check to see if there is such a plot today?]
System: [No, I have watched today's plot several times, and there is absolutely no such thing.]
Hearing what Tong Tong said, the Imperial Concubine didn't even think twice, she got up and walked out holding the little girl: "Let's go, let's go to His Majesty together, this matter is of great importance, I can't intervene."
As the Imperial Consort, she could discipline the underage princes.
But it involves the Dayao Proton. At the very least, it is just a conflict between children. At the most, it is a big matter. If it is not handled properly, it will sow the seeds of war. No matter what, it is not right for her, a concubine, to take action.
When they got outside, Ji Jinyou looked at the little proton who was held in someone's arms. She saw that his clothes were all covered in blood, and it looked bloody and very bloody. She was so scared that she immediately turned her head and buried her face in the Royal Concubine's arms.
The imperial concubine secretly thought that she was careless, and hurriedly patted the little girl's back, comforting her softly: "Don't be afraid, mother is here."
Jin Xing looked back at Xiao Yuzhong, then quickly moved a little to block the girl's sight.
Xue Yili saw that the little princess was frightened, and whispered, "Cong'an, walk slowly."
When His Highness An Jian's eyes fell on the little princess and he saw that the little princess had buried her face, he understood His Highness's intention, slowed down his pace, and distanced himself from the Imperial Concubine.
Ji Jinyou lay there for a while, but couldn't resist her curiosity and showed half of her face from over the Royal Concubine's shoulder, but Jin Xing stood in front of her and didn't let her see.
Thinking of Xiao Yuzi's clothes that were stained with blood, Ji Jinyou asked worriedly: "He lost a lot of blood. Will he die?"
System: [Probably not. I read the character synopsis to the end and he didn’t die.]
Ji Jinyou felt relieved: [That's good.]
Listening to the conversation between the little girl and the man, Xue Yili remained calm and quietly looked at the people walking in front.
He wanted to see if there was anyone else who could hear the conversation, but all he saw were people's backs and he couldn't make out anything.
The group soon arrived at Chongde Hall. Liang Quan was guarding outside the hall. When he saw the Thirteenth Prince, who was being held up, with blood on his hands and the little hostage who was being held in a terrible state, he was horrified and pale with fear. After a brief inquiry, he hurried in to report.
Under normal circumstances, the Imperial Concubine would have gone in directly, but the hypocritical man was still angry with her and said he didn't want to see her, so she had better behave herself.
Soon, Liang Quan came out: "Your Majesty, His Majesty wants you and the Ninth Princess to go in first."
"Thank you, Eunuch Liang." The Royal Concubine nodded to Liang Quan and walked in carrying Ji Jinyou.
Liang Quan extended his hand to Xue Yili again, making a gesture of invitation, and said politely, "Your Highness, please go to the side hall and rest for a while. His Majesty has already ordered the imperial physician to be summoned, and he will be here soon."
Xue Yili bowed weakly, "Thank you, eunuch."
Liang Quan led the way in front, and Cong'an followed him into the side hall holding Xue Yili.
The Imperial Concubine carried Ji Jinyou into the main hall. As soon as they entered, they put the little girl on the ground and the two of them paid their respects to Emperor Wen Zhao.
"Get up." Emperor Wen Zhao didn't even look at the Royal Consort, and directly stretched out his hand to Ji Jinyou: "Xiaojiu, come here, father."
The Imperial Concubine was too lazy to talk to the Emperor, so she gently pushed the little girl and said, "Xiaojiu, go and tell His Majesty what you said to your mother earlier."
Since you are all here, just leave the matter of Thirteen and Fourteen bullying Fifteen to Your Majesty. If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of the father. Since they are all Your Majesty's children, let him worry about it himself.
The little girl was eloquent and good at speaking. After she finished talking about the princes, she went on to talk about Thirteen and the little proton.
Although Ji Jinyou didn't know why, she knew that the Empress and His Majesty were disliking each other, so she nodded her head, walked to Emperor Wen Zhao on her short legs, clasped her fists and bowed, raised her head, and said in a soft and serious voice: "Your Majesty, Youyou wants to complain."
Seeing the chubby little girl calling him "Your Majesty" in a serious manner, Emperor Wen Zhao found it very interesting. "Okay, tell me who you want to sue and I will make the decision for you."
Ji Jinyou told about the scene in Yu Garden and the injury on the fifteenth prince's arm. She spoke the truth without hiding anything and without exaggerating.
Finally, he warned, "Your Majesty, Thirteen is extremely bad, you must beat him severely."
"Although Fourteen is not as bad as Thirteen, he is also an accomplice. The two of them stole Fifteen's food and teamed up to beat him up. They should be beaten up too, so that they won't dare to bully Fifteen again in the future."
Emperor Wen Zhao initially thought it was funny to hear the little girl talking with her head tilted, and he even laughed. But the more he listened, the gloomier his expression became. When Xiao Jiu finished her story, he shouted coldly, "Let those two evil creatures get out of here."
The Imperial Concubine hurriedly stopped him and whispered, "Your Majesty, there is no rush for this matter. No matter how fiercely the three princes are fighting, behind closed doors, it is a matter between brothers. But the Dayao hostage is still waiting in the side hall covered in blood. Can you take care of this matter first?"
Emperor Wen Zhao had just heard Liang Quan's description of the situation of several people. He frowned and said, "Oh, by the way, I was so angry with those two evildoers that I almost forgot about this matter. What's the matter with Dayao?"
The Imperial Concubine briefly relayed Hong Yu's words, and at the end she threw up her hands: "I dare not interfere in this matter, nor can I interfere. Your Majesty, please make the decision."
Emperor Wen Zhao was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "You evil creature, you are really going to piss me off to death."
Ji Jinyou climbed onto the chair and patted Emperor Wen Zhao on the back: "Father, don't be angry."
Emperor Wen Zhao reached out and touched the little concubine's head, his heart melting: "Our little Jiu is still sensible and filial."
Ji Jinyou asked again: "Father, don't you go and see the little prince? He has lost a lot of blood. It's so pitiful."
"It's time to go and take a look," Emperor Wen Zhao nodded, stood up, picked up the little girl and walked to the side hall, "Xiao Jiu, accompany your father."
