Chapter 1900 Kicking People
The Queen watched, then she took Princess Gong's hand and stepped forward, interrupting them and saying, "Carry the man to the back hall so Xiao Yuanzheng and the others can see him."
The emperor then remembered this matter. The most important thing now was to treat his injuries, so he quickly ordered people to carry Prince Gong to the back hall. Xiao Yuanzheng and others were waiting outside and followed Prince Gong directly.
Before leaving, he looked at Zhou Man who was kneeling on the ground with concern.
As soon as they left, the emperor sat back in his chair and said in a deep voice, "Okay, now you can tell me what happened."
No matter who reported this matter, there would be some bias. In the end, it was the leader of their guards who reported it.
From the discussion between the Crown Prince and Prince Gong, to Princess Mingda asking Zhou Man to examine Prince Gong, to an unknown conversation between the Crown Prince and Prince Gong, to Prince Gong getting so angry that he kicked the table and broke his leg, to their sudden decision to return today.
Although these are all superficial things, they are enough for the emperor to understand the whole story.
The emperor was furious with the prince. Sanlang was not good at martial arts at all. He was out of breath when he walked. But you actually dragged him to practice martial arts. Aren't you just looking for an excuse to beat him?
The prince stood there listening to the scolding without much reaction.
The queen also felt that the prince did it on purpose, so she did not stop the emperor from scolding him.
After scolding the prince, the emperor went to Zhou Man.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Man suspiciously, "As an imperial physician, you actually let Prince Gong break his leg right under your nose?"
Manbao lowered his head.
The emperor snorted coldly, "Go out and kneel outside."
Manbao obediently stood up and knelt down. Bai Shan hesitated for a moment, glanced at Princess Mingda, and then retreated.
Bai Erlang had no choice but to follow. He didn't expect that he would end up kneeling after coming to watch the fun.
He was still a little confused when he and Manbao knelt outside the hall. He turned around and asked Bai Shan, who was separated from him by Manbao: "Why did we come here?"
Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "No one will stop you if you leave now."
Bai Erlang pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, I'm already here, I'm already kneeling."
I always feel that leaving now will be worse.
Zhou Man and the other two were punished to kneel outside. The leader of the imperial guards and the eunuchs also left. Only their family was left in the room. Princess Gong followed Prince Gong to the back hall, so there were no outsiders. So the emperor rushed down from above and kicked the prince, making him kneel on the ground with a bang.
The prince knelt, then supported himself with his hands and stood up again.
Seeing that he was so stubborn, the emperor kicked him again. The empress did not stop him. Changyu, who was standing by, was frightened and her face turned pale.
Mingda rushed forward and blocked the emperor's third kick. "Father, no one could have imagined that my third brother would break his leg. You can't blame it all on my eldest brother..."
She hugged the emperor's arm and cried, "Father, are you going to break my brother's legs too?"
The emperor finally suppressed his anger and pointed outside, saying, "You go out and kneel down too!"
The prince turned around and went out.
The three people kneeling outside were startled when they saw the prince limping out, then they quietly moved and huddled together. Even the prince got beaten...
The prince didn't even look at them and knelt down three steps in front of them.
Aunt Shang quickly ran out with a cushion and placed it under the prince's knees.
When Manbao and the other two saw this, they involuntarily moved their knees, feeling that the already hard bluestone slabs had become even harder.
They also want a futon...
In the palace, Mingda was soothing the emperor's chest to calm his anger, and calmly pleading with the crown prince and Manbao, "Father, this matter really cannot be blamed on my elder brother and Manbao."
The emperor was very suspicious. "What did they say in the room? Why did Sanlang kick the table in anger? He has always had a good temper. He wouldn't kick the table if he wasn't furious."
In the family, apart from my father, the only one who thinks that Prince Gong has a good temper is probably Chang Yu.
Mingda knew Sange's temper, and the Queen knew it even better. She raised her eyelids and glanced at the Emperor, but didn't bother to pay attention to him. She asked Mingda directly, "Besides the broken bones, does Sanlang have any other injuries?"
"No, the injuries he sustained while sparring with my eldest brother were minor. Manbao said they were nothing serious," Mingda said after a pause. "Father, you know my eldest brother's martial arts skills. If he really wanted to beat my third brother, he would have left more than just scratches if he had caught him for a fight."
The emperor puffed his beard and glared, "Then we should thank him for showing mercy?"
Mingda suddenly spoke frankly, "Father, what Third Brother did before was too extreme. Not to mention the fights he and Big Brother have had in the court over the past four or five years, just look at what he did to Big Brother in private. And that child Big Brother lost two years ago..."
The emperor was speechless for a moment. After a long pause, he said dejectedly, "I have already punished your third brother..."
"But as long as my eldest brother is still angry, they can't reconcile. Father, if they keep arguing with each other like this, what will happen in the future?"
The emperor's eyes turned red, and he said sadly, "Yes, but what can I do? I am Dalang's father, and I am also Sanlang's father. I have flesh and blood. Should I chop off Sanlang to apologize for his crime?"
The more the emperor spoke, the angrier he became.
The Queen said, "If you can't treat them equally, then don't get involved in the children's disputes. Let them fight among themselves and everything should be done according to the law."
The emperor sat there without saying a word.
Mingda still held his hand, half-knelt at his feet and said, "Father, this is an opportunity. Bai Shan and Zhou Man said that if we let the eldest and third brothers vent their resentment this time, their relationship can be repaired with more interactions."
The emperor snorted coldly, obviously not believing it.
Mingda repeated what Bai Shan had said that night. She said, "Father, have you ever thought about what Third Brother will do after Big Brother takes over?"
The emperor fell silent. He had obviously thought about it, but with his two sons' current situation, he obviously had no better solution. He just hoped that they would not become enemies in the future.
Mingda said: "Bai Shan also asked the third brother this question."
The emperor raised his head and looked at Mingda.
Mingda nodded slightly and said, "Third brother is a smart man. He has naturally thought about this, so he wants to have a good relationship with the eldest brother."
The emperor immediately slapped his thigh and said, "I knew Sanlang was the most obedient, but now it's your eldest brother who has a stubborn temper..."
Mingda immediately said, "Big brother has also softened his attitude."
The emperor looked at Mingda suspiciously.
Mingda nodded confidently. "Manbao said that the eldest brother cursed the third brother for some reason that day, calling him an idiot. That's why the third brother lost control and kicked the table. But Manbao said he felt that the eldest brother wasn't cursing the third brother, but rather cursing himself. After that, his temper towards the third brother improved a lot. He not only sent good medicinal wine to the third brother, but also arranged for a bicycle for him. He even asked about trivial matters like his diet."
