When Liang Jiugong was only two steps away from the door, Kangxi called him again.
"etc!"
Liang Jiugong's body stiffened, and then he turned around.
"Your Majesty?"
"Tell Lin Weikai to go to the Tong Mansion and take a look!"
Lin Wei Kai was the newly appointed judge of the Right Court. As for the original two, they were stripped of their positions by Kangxi and became the lowest-level clerks in the Imperial Medical Service.
“Hey!”
Liang Jiugong immediately agreed and then quickly left the bedroom.
The atmosphere in the bedroom was too depressing. He suspected that if he stayed any longer, he might offend the Emperor and be dragged out to be beaten with a stick!
The fact that Tong Guowei was escorted out of the palace by four imperial guards did not escape the eyes of those who were interested.
Seeing this, many people thought that Longkodo would be pardoned.
After all, given the emperor's favoritism towards the Tong family, even if it was only for the sake of blood, it was impossible for the emperor to take Longkodo's life directly.
Tong Guowei knelt outside the Qianqing Palace for an entire afternoon, and even the emperor did not see him. Only a small group of people knew about this.
Yinzhen had already returned to the prince's residence at that time and was fortunate enough to witness the entire process of Tong Guowei being carried out of the palace.
The north wind was blowing through his bones. Just by standing at the door for a moment, he felt the chill running through his body. Tong Guowei had been kneeling on the stone slab for the entire afternoon.
Haha... He has now forgotten that Tong Guowei is his uncle. How cruel he is!
Yinzhen withdrew his gaze and walked back to the yard.
The eighth prince's wedding date was set for February after the New Year. He moved to the Beile Mansion outside the palace some time ago, while the tenth prince was still in the military camp on the outskirts of the city. He would only come back during the holidays or to attend some important occasions.
As a result, Yinzhen didn't even have anyone to talk to in the prince's residence.
As for the remaining brothers, he thought they were too young and didn't want to associate with them at all.
He has been holding back a lot of things these past two days but has no one to talk to, and he's feeling so miserable.
No, he would have to harass the starling again tomorrow.
As soon as Tong Guowei arrived home, the imperial physician from the palace came to visit.
But by then, Tong Guowei had already fallen into a deep coma.
A new round of chaos started in the Tong family.
When Lin Wei Kai came out of Tong's house, it was so dark that he could not see the road clearly.
Lin Wei Kai breathed a sigh of relief. The palace gates were probably locked at this time, but he still had to go to the palace to report the situation.
At this time in the past, he would have already lain down in bed to rest, but now he can only run around outside in misery.
It was better when I was an imperial physician.
If his two immediate superiors had not been suddenly demoted to clerks, he would not have been forced to be promoted to court judge by the emperor.
Being a judge is not that easy...
"You said Duke Tong is in a very bad condition?"
"yes."
Lin Wei Kai knelt on the ground, his eyes only daring to fall on the footstool beside Kangxi's bed.
"When the Duke was young, he fought in battles and had some hidden injuries on his body. If he had taken good care of these injuries, they would have had little effect on his health. But he's been out there for too long today, and his emotions have been turbulent..."
In fact, the blood he vomited is very telling. If the Duke had received acupuncture from an imperial physician immediately when he vomited blood, his current condition might have been better.
But how could Lin Wei Kai dare to say it directly now?
If you say it out loud, you will be suspected of accusing the emperor. At the very least, you will be scolded, and at the worst, you will be dragged out and beaten with a stick.
Just imagining it made Lin Wei Kai feel his legs tremble.
Upon hearing this, Kangxi gripped the edge of the bed tightly with his hands.
It is undeniable that Kangxi had a moment of panic when he heard that Tong Guowei was in a very bad condition.
He has very poor relationships with his elders in this life, and Tong Guowei is the only elder he has left in this world with whom he has a close relationship.
"Is his life...in danger?"
Lin Weikai pursed his lips, thought carefully for a moment, and replied,
"The Duke is in such a state that he cannot withstand any severe blow."
In fact, even if he had endured it, Duke Tong would not necessarily be in danger of his life, but he would most likely have to take medicine every day for the rest of his life.
It’s just that imperial physicians tend to exaggerate the severity of illnesses.
If something goes wrong in the future, they can still avoid disaster.
Kangxi's expression became even gloomier.
He understood what Lin Weikai meant, but he was unwilling to let Longkodo go.
Now only Yinzhi, Yinreng and Yinzhi know the inside story of the incident. If Longkodo is released, there is no guarantee that more people will not know about it in the future.
If Longkodo had not uttered the word "silence", he might still be concerned about Tong Guowei's health and choose to let Longkodo go.
Unfortunately, there is no if...
"I place the safety of Duke Tong in your hands. You must save his life!"
Lin Weikai raised his head slightly, no matter how reluctant he was, he could only nod in agreement.
"Your humble servant obeys your order."
"You go ahead..."
"yes."
Lin Wei Kai got up from the ground, bowed and walked out.
It wasn't until the moment he walked out the door that his face completely fell.
Why is his life so miserable...
That night, Kangxi tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
So during the morning court session, people who were closer to the throne could see the haggard look on his face.
Coincidentally, there was nothing to report to Kangxi today, so the morning court ended very early.
After the court session, everyone gathered together and started whispering again.
"I heard that Master Tong knelt outside the Palace of Heavenly Purity for nearly two hours yesterday, and the Emperor didn't even see him..."
