Chapter 17: Prince Yi and Prime Minister Song are jealous of each other?
His original purpose was to use Jiang Rumin to stir up conflict between Song Yunchu and Jun Tianyi. As long as these two people were at loggerheads, it would be beneficial to him.
Now his goal has been achieved. Jun Tianyi is such a face-conscious person, but Song Yunchu took away his beloved, beat him up and sent him back to the palace. I'm afraid he wants to kill him.
With Jun Tianyi's current ability, he cannot kill Song Yunchu.
But in Song Yunchu's prediction, Jun Tianyi's strength will continue to grow, and one day he will master the ultimate kung fu, and by then it will be close to the time of Song Yunchu's death.
Although the relationship between him and Song Yunchu as a monarch and his subject was only superficial, it was mutually beneficial after all, so - he could not allow Jun Tianyi to be superior to Song Yunchu.
He was waiting for an opportunity. He must snatch the martial arts secret book that Jun Tianyi would get. Only when the secret book fell into his hands could he feel at ease.
"You continue to inquire." Jun Liluo glanced at the secret guards in front of the imperial desk, "See what tricks Prime Minister Song can come up with."
At the same time, in the Xiangfu——
"Sir, the crowd outside the gate is still there. In my opinion, they intend to stand there until dawn. You still have to go to court tomorrow morning. As soon as the gate is opened, they will definitely block your way and force you to go to Prince Yi's mansion to apologize."
"There are rumors circulating outside that are unfavorable to you. Those officials in the court who are not on good terms with you will definitely severely report you when they see the opportunity."
Song Yunchu half-lay on a rattan chair, looking at the bitter faces of his men, chewing melon seeds leisurely, "Anyway, I, your master, have always had a bad reputation. The outside world has long said that I bully men and women, and am a traitor and villain. Am I afraid that my reputation will be even worse?"
"But now they have begun to spread rumors that you despise the royal family. This is really too much."
The red-dressed woman on Song Yunchu's left frowned and said, "Although it was Prince Yi's mother, Concubine Yi, who sent people to block the door, if Prince Yi can afford to lose and force the Concubine not to come, will she be persuaded?"
"He probably didn't persuade her and let the Concubine deal with me. Anyway, he didn't need to intervene in this matter. Concubine Yi just needed to tell the outside world that it was her own idea. As a loving mother, she came to seek justice from the perpetrators. Outsiders would have no reason to criticize Prince Yi. Besides, Concubine Yi has a very good reputation, so people's opinions would naturally be in her favor."
The moment she agreed to the sparring, Song Yunchu already knew what the outcome would be. She also took into consideration Jun Tianyi's status and knew that the sparring must be done in moderation. But when the fight actually started, she realized that she lacked practical experience and accidentally... caused internal injuries to the opponent.
This body is a top-notch master with amazing speed and strength. Every time she attacks, her muscle memory allows her to be unstoppable in a fight. This is the most precious resource given to her by the original owner.
But because her kung fu is so advanced, one careless move could easily result in death, so she has to control the strength when she does it. However, when it comes to practicing, she finds that this is not an easy task.
At the beginning, she only used 70% to 80% of her strength, while Jun Tianyi was ruthless and obviously intended to beat her up. After dozens of moves, Jun Tianyi obviously lost his patience and punched her hard in the chest.
Because swords have no eyes, she and Jun Tianyi did not use weapons, but fought with bare hands. After coming to this world for so many days, this was the first time for her to experience such flesh-and-flesh fighting. It was really exciting and interesting.
But such a fight involves a lot of physical contact, so when Jun Tianyi hit her chest, she instinctively wanted to resist this invasion. She dodged the attack with a turn of her feet, and then turned around and kicked -
He kicked Jun Tianyi away.
Jun Tianyi was injured, and the Jiang family immediately called a doctor for him. The doctor took his pulse and said that his blood was surging, his internal breathing was disordered, etc. Finally, the conclusion was that he had suffered serious internal injuries and needed to rest for several days. It would be best for him to lie in bed for a few days and not use force during this period.
"well."
Song Yunchu sighed, "The truth is often not as good as we expect."
She didn't need to take responsibility for the assassin who had previously tried to kill Jiang Rumin on the street, even if she kicked him until he vomited blood, because he was a bad guy and there was no need for her to show mercy. If she had known that she would have to fight Jun Tianyi today, she should have practiced her skills with those assassins first.
"Sir, should we ask for help from His Majesty?"
The red-dressed maid's voice rang out from the left, "We don't know how long those guards from Prince Yi's Mansion will block the door. We can't attack them now, or we will be in the wrong."
"Ask your majesty for help?" Song Yunchu raised his eyebrows slightly. "Honglian, how long has it been since Prince Yi was injured?"
"About two hours."
"Yes, it's been two hours. Prince Yi was beaten by Prime Minister Song and was injured and bedridden. If such a big thing hasn't been reported to His Majesty in two hours... do you believe it?"
Honglian's face showed surprise. "You mean, His Majesty knew everything but chose not to intervene? He didn't intend to help you?"
"Our emperor is a man of deep thoughts, and likes to sit on the mountain and watch tigers fight." Song Yunchu said, "It is unlikely that I can expect him to help me."
The Dog Emperor might be happy to see such a situation.
It was he who had arranged the relationship and brought her into trouble with Jun Tianyi. She guessed that he was either sleeping or speculating enthusiastically about how things would develop, with a completely spectator-like mentality.
Would he think of coming to her rescue? Unless the sun rises from the west.
"People from Prince Yi's Mansion like to block the door, so let them do it. The worst that can happen is that I won't go to court tomorrow morning."
Song Yunchu said, and instructed the man in white at the side: "Baizhu, ask a few people who are good at Qinggong to climb over the wall from the backyard, take enough silver, and go to teahouses, wine shops, brothels and other places where people like to gather. There are many people in these places who will help spread rumors for money. Didn't Prince Yi say that I despised the royal family and deliberately hurt people? I also have a story to tell everyone."
Hearing this, Bai Zhu said sternly, "Prime Minister, please give me your orders."
"If you don't want to be cursed, you have to bring out a more infuriating incident to divert attention, that is - use rumors to suppress rumors. Prince Yi's Mansion made me into an arrogant and domineering villain, so I want their prince to be a heinous and heartless man."
…
The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the streets of the imperial city were as bustling and lively as usual.
The fight between Prince Yi and Prime Minister Song over jealousy became a hot topic in all major teahouses and taverns.
"Prime Minister Song is really arrogant to the extreme. I heard that he bullied officials in the past, and now he even dares to beat the emperor's uncle."
"Has Prime Minister Song not done enough evil? He has no regard for etiquette and laws. Your Majesty was deceived by him before, which made him proud for a while. This time he has caused such a big mess and severely injured your Majesty's uncle. Your Majesty may punish him severely."
"Severe punishment is better!"
While people at one table were discussing Prime Minister Song's faults, people at another table had a completely different opinion.
"They all say that Prime Minister Song was arrogant and beat people up. I don't know where they heard it from. Wasn't it the prince who was at fault this time? The daughter of my cousin's eldest aunt's neighbor is a maid in the Duke's mansion. My cousin has found out the truth of what happened."
