Chapter 16 Sir Song, are you interested in sparring with me?
Jun Tianyi looked at Song Yunchu with a look that almost spitted fire. "Song Yunchu, although you are a first-rank official in the court, I am a member of the royal family. How dare you talk back to me like this? Who gave you the right!"
"I am only speaking the truth. Why should Your Majesty be so angry?"
Song Yunchu said calmly, "Your Highness, who gave me the right? Of course it was His Majesty. My marriage with Miss Jiang was granted by His Majesty, so I naturally have the right to protect Miss Jiang. Your Highness, you have no relationship with her now, but you still want to come to her territory and be aggressive. How can I sit back and watch?"
"I have long heard that Prime Minister Song is eloquent and good at sophistry. Today, I finally got to see it for myself."
Jun Tianyi sneered, "I have heard that Lord Song is a martial arts master, and he is almost unrivaled among his peers. Are you interested in sparring with me today?"
When Song Yunchu heard this, he clapped his hands in his heart.
The scumbag men of this period were no match for her.
He obtained the lost martial arts secrets after Jiang Rumin was disfigured and he led people to the cliff to look for herbs, but unfortunately fell off the cliff.
Seeing Jun Tianyi's confident look, she despised him in her heart, but pretended to be embarrassed, "Your Highness is a rich man, how can I fight with you?"
"I allow you to take action." Jun Tianyi said without hesitation, "You are hesitant, are you afraid to fight?"
Seeing that he was trying to provoke her, Song Yunchu agreed to his intention, "Since Your Majesty does not blame me, I will accept the challenge. How about we find a free place to spar? Don't destroy the flowers and trees in Rumin's yard."
Jun Tianyi naturally had no objection to this proposal.
Jiang Rumin hurried forward to persuade them, "Your Majesty and Lord Song are both people of prominent status, why do you have to fight over a few words? Calm down first..."
"I am very calm. It's just a sparring match. We should stop when it's enough." Jun Tianyi was determined to teach Song Yunchu a lesson, so naturally he would not listen to any advice at this moment.
Song Yunchu raised his eyebrows slightly and made an inviting gesture to Jun Tianyi, "Your Highness Prince Yi, please come in."
…
That night, the breeze was cool, but the lights in the imperial study were still brightly lit.
Chief Eunuch Li took the freshly brewed tea from the eunuch and brought it to Jun Liluo, "Your Majesty, it's getting dark. You've been reading memorials for too long today. Why don't you take a break and don't get too tired?"
Jun Li Luo took the tea and took a sip when a secret guard came in to report, "Your Majesty, as you expected, Prime Minister Song and Prince Yi had a dispute. It was not just a verbal dispute, but they also fought in the Duke's Mansion. Prince Yi was defeated and suffered some internal injuries."
Hearing this, Jun Li Luo raised a very slight arc at the corner of his lips, "The Emperor's uncle has always been arrogant. It would be fine if they just fought in private, but they fought in the Duke's Mansion, in front of everyone. The Emperor's uncle must be very frustrated in his heart because so many eyes witnessed his failure, right?"
Although Song Yunchu is a civil servant, his martial arts skills are extremely high. He currently cannot figure out Song Yunchu's strength. He only knows that the younger generation of generals are no match for Song Yunchu. As for the few powerful veterans in the court... they have never fought with Song Yunchu.
Jun Tianyi was still too confident. Now that he had suffered such a blow, he would probably hate Song Yunchu even more.
"Your Majesty is right. After Prince Yi returned home, the Queen Mother sent many guards to block the door of the Prime Minister's residence, saying that Prime Minister Song was too harsh. They had clearly agreed to stop at a certain point, but he still injured the prince internally. She wanted Prime Minister Song to come to the palace in person to give an explanation, otherwise the guards of the palace would not withdraw."
Jun Liluo chuckled, "The Concubine Dowager has always lived in seclusion and kept a low profile. Now that she has created such a big scene, she must be venting her anger on the Emperor's uncle."
It stands to reason that coming to cause trouble after losing a competition shows that one cannot afford to lose, but Song Yunchu has a bad reputation after all. As long as Prince Yi's Mansion seizes on this point, emphasizes Song Yunchu's arrogance and arrogance, and claims that he is jealous of Prince Yi and is relying on the emperor's favor to vent his anger in the name of competition, Song Yunchu will suffer more abuse and condemnation from the outside world.
The Concubine Dowager has been a vegetarian and chanted Buddhist scriptures all year round. She has also opened porridge stalls several times for good deeds and has a very good reputation. When she competes with Song Yunchu like this, most people will stand on her side and admire her motherly heart.
"The quarrel between Prince Yi's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion has come to this point. I'm afraid I have to intervene to mediate."
Jun Li Luo put down his teacup and said leisurely, "But, the emperor's uncle is my elder after all. Even if Prime Minister Song is my right-hand man, it is a foregone conclusion that he injured the emperor's uncle. If I side with him, it would be a bit unreasonable."
Upon hearing this, Li Zongguan asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, are you not going to intervene in this matter?"
"If I want to intervene, I must have a good reason, otherwise others will say that I am biased. Prime Minister Song is always smart, maybe he can come up with a solution himself? I believe that he is not the kind of mediocre person who sits in the mansion and waits for me to help him out when things happen."
