"You beat me so hard that my face was disfigured, and you dare to say it was just a few punches! You are not human!"
Liu Yi complained angrily.
He didn't need to look in the mirror to know that his face must be red and swollen.
Maybe his face will really be disfigured.
When Liu Yi thought about how he had hit his royal brother, completely offended him, and had his face disfigured, he suddenly felt that his future was bleak, as if he had lost his parents.
He felt hopeless and sat on the ground, wiping his eyes.
"You might as well order my death, so that I don't have to suffer in this world. Death will put an end to everything, and you won't have to look at my face every day and feel disgusted."
Liu Zhao is tired of fighting!
Once the excitement wore off, he lost interest in doing it.
He lay on the ground and kicked Liu Yi, "I said, unless you rebel, I will not kill you."
"If I hit you, it would be equivalent to rebellion." It was very difficult for Liu Yi to find various excuses to die.
"Bullshit! You think you can beat me with your mediocre skills? What a joke. I was the one holding you down the whole time, just like when we were kids."
Liu Yi was very sad.
"I can never beat you, what's the point of living?"
"There are so many people you can't beat. Do you always want to die when you're not as good as others? Where did you learn these woman's tricks? Don't let me look down on you."
Liu Zhao snorted twice.
Although fighting is tiring, it is also very exciting!
The feeling of comfort after the game is incomparable and priceless.
He could fully understand Gu Ting, Liu Zheng and others' desire to fight on the battlefield.
The feeling of satisfaction after winning a fight is incomparable to anything else.
Liu Yi wiped his tears and said, "Don't talk nonsense! I beat you, and this cannot be concealed from anyone. Even if you are willing to let me go, the court officials will not let me go. You might as well issue an order to deprive me of my title and lock me up in the Zongzheng Temple now."
"I've said so much to you, but you haven't listened to a word. When have I ever compromised because of threats from court officials? Am I a petty person? I told you that if you tell the truth and do something hateful, I won't blame you. I've watched you grow up, and I know your temper very well. I have enough patience to tolerate you."
Liu Zhao was also very sincere.
Liu Yi was a little dumbfounded, "You don't dislike me?"
"Disgusted!" These words were spoken very loudly and with certainty, without the slightest hesitation.
"You don't hate me?"
"I don't hate you! You are not qualified to make me hate you."
Liu Yi laughed at himself, "I really am useless."
Liu Zhao kicked him and said, "I just can't stand your self-pity. It's really annoying."
"I've lost completely, and you're not allowing me to feel sorry for myself. You're a bit too quick to intervene."
After Liu Yi knew that he didn't have to die, he became arrogant again.
There is indeed some despicable behavior.
Liu Zhao looked down on him, and for good reason.
Liu Yi asked curiously, "Will you execute Concubine Xiao?"
"You care about her? Do you have any contact with her?" Liu Zhao narrowed his eyes, feeling a little oppressed.
But he was lying down, and Liu Yi could not feel his oppression at all.
Liu Yi shook his head. "I haven't had any contact with her for many years, let alone caring about her. I just asked. If she died, Qin'er would be considered a half-executioner. If the Xiao family gets involved, and Old Nine is involved, there will always be a lot of bad debts."
Xiao Shu'er's son is the half-brother of Liu Zhao and Liu Yi.
If Xiao Shu'er died, it would be a pile of bad debts for Liu Yi.
The Xiao family certainly didn't dare to go to the palace to ask Liu Zhao for justice.
Similarly, Lao Jiu doesn't have the courage to do so.
They will all direct their attacks at Liu Yi and Xiao Qin'er.
This is a big trouble.
Liu Zhao gave him some advice, "Sometimes you have to learn from your fourth brother's wife and fight back directly. It's simple and efficient."
"The Queen never does things so crudely and crudely! The Queen is so tolerant of you, it's really hard!"
Liu Zhao gritted his teeth. "If you dare mention the Empress again, I will punish you severely."
Liu Yi snorted twice and decided not to mention it.
"I'll take my leave if you're fine! I still need to find a doctor to treat the wound on my face."
Liu Zhao was gentle for once. "I will take care of this for you. This is just the first time, and it won't happen again."
Liu Yi was a little confused.
Liu Zhao was too lazy to explain to him, so he waved his hand and told him to get out.
Liu Yi rolled away smoothly.
…
Liu Zhao got up from the ground, grinning.
"Hey, that's pretty shady."
The door of the main hall was opened from the outside.
Gu Jiu walked in carrying a medicine box.
Liu Zhao laughed at her, and the part where he was hit moved, and he bared his teeth again.
Gu Jiu looked disgusted.
"At his age, he still fights like a child. He's quite remarkable. Lin Shuping shouldn't have kicked everyone out and asked the attendant to stay in the main hall and record every word so that future generations can witness the majesty of an emperor's hand-to-hand combat."
Lin Shuping bent down and bowed, not daring to speak.
Whatever you say is wrong.
Liu Zhao waved his hand, and Lin Shuping quickly retreated as if he had been pardoned.
He said to Gu Jiu, "I have to save face! If the attendant records every word, where will I put my face?"
Gu Jiu sneered, "You still have some dignity! If you have dignity, why would you fight with Prince Duan? Hand-to-hand combat, you're really capable!"
As she complained, she took out the ointment from the medicine box.
"Take off your clothes and let me see where you are hurt."
"I'm not injured! I could have knocked the fourth brother down with one hand, so how could I have been injured? Don't make a fuss."
Gu Jiu smiled.
Without saying anything, he slapped him.
Bang!
Hit him on the back.
Liu Zhao gasped, "How come you hit me right where it hurts the most?"
Gu Jiu laughed at him, "Didn't you just show off and say you weren't hurt? How can you cry out in pain now? How embarrassing!"
Liu Zhao chuckled, "I also want to save face."
Gu Jiu said with a stern face, "Take off your clothes for me. If you don't, I will strip you off myself."
Liu Zhao muttered a few words weakly and took off his clothes obediently.
Several bruises.
Gu Jiu was very disgusted. While pouring the medicated oil and preparing for the massage, he complained to him:
"The dog's brains must have been beaten out."
"That can't be! You didn't see the look on Fourth Brother's face. He was nearly disfigured. I specifically hit him in the face, making him too embarrassed to see anyone for a month. It's a good opportunity for me to reflect on my mistakes."
Liu Zhao looked very proud.
Gu Jiu rolled his eyes.
"Look at you, a dignified emperor. You have plenty of ways to deal with the Fourth Brother. Why do you have to fight? Even if you win, it's dishonorable. If you lose, it's even more shameful. The Fourth Brother is also a fool. He actually chose to fight with you. Did you bully him too much, so he was impulsive and wanted to fight with you?"
"I didn't bully him. Don't try to be mean." Liu Zhao snorted. "But you're right about him being brainless. Guess who caught that man and left him at the gate of the Shaofu?"
"Fourth brother's wife?" Gu Jiu guessed casually.
"Old Four is crying out for justice in front of me. What a coward! Even a woman knows how to take revenge, but he dares not do anything and even puts the blame on me. It's as if I'm forcing him not to take revenge. Don't you think he's a jerk?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "He's really a jerk. He's a coward, and yet he dares to make excuses. He deserves a beating."
Liu Zhao laughed heartily, "I knew you would support my actions."
Bang!
Gu Jiu slapped him again.
Liu Zhao took a breath of cold air.
"I support beating up the Fourth Brother, but I don't support you fighting. Anyone can beat up the Fourth Brother, but you can't! There are so many people in the palace, why don't you ask someone to do it for you? And you dare to look so smug, you deserve a beating."
Gu Jiu scolded him.
Liu Zhaohao didn't care.
He was just excited and happy.
He was very happy that Gu Jiu and he had the same idea and both believed that the fourth brother needed to be punished.
Gu Jiu was thinking about other things. "Fourth brother's wife and Concubine Xiao are sisters from the same mother, yet she was so cruel as to tie up that man and throw him directly at the gate of the Shaofu. I heard earlier that the sisters were not on good terms, but I never saw it with my own eyes. This time, it was really an eye-opener. But how could Concubine Xiao, who is such a smart person, do such a stupid thing? Is there any misunderstanding here? It must not be a frame-up."
"I've been thinking about this too, and have already ordered the Intelligence Department and the Jinwu Guards to conduct a secret investigation. It's also not a good idea to make this matter public, as it would damage my father's reputation."
Gu Jiu asked him, "If this is true, how do you plan to deal with Concubine Xiao?"
"Do you think I should sentence her to death?"
Gu Jiu said directly: "You have to make your own decision on this matter. I can't interfere."
"Why can't I interfere? I want to hear your thoughts."
Gu Jiu still refused.
"When it comes to the late emperor's reputation, nothing I say would be appropriate."
She said that if Xiao Shuer's life was saved, if Liu Zhao regretted it one day in the future, it would be her fault.
She wanted to say that if she killed Xiao Qin'er, if something else happened in the future, it would be her fault.
When it comes to matters concerning the previous generation of emperors, the smart thing to do is to stay away, never interfere, and certainly not offer any opinions.
Liu Zhao asked him, "Are you really not going to say anything?"
Gu Jiu nodded heavily, "You make the decision yourself. You can do whatever you want with her."
Liu Zhao held her hand and said, "I know what you are worried about. But in this palace, there are only the two of us, husband and wife. Why should you worry?"
"I'm not being cautious, but I'm sticking to my bottom line. I have my own principles. I won't say anything I shouldn't, and I won't say a single word I shouldn't."
"Forget it, forget it, I won't force you."
Liu Zhao could see Gu Jiu's determination from her eyes.
Knowing that she had already made her decision, he gave up asking her opinion.
"I'll deal with this matter after I find out the truth!"
