Qinghe Palace.
The guards of Qinghe Palace and the people led by Ye Shiheng started fighting.
Ye Shiheng wanted to enter the Qinghe Palace to look for someone, but the people in the Qinghe Palace would not let him, so the two sides started fighting.
The people in the General's Mansion were well-trained, some even having fought on the battlefield, so it goes without saying how skilled they were. Ye Shiheng and Wu Jing were even more skilled, and they quickly broke into the Qinghe Palace.
"Go find someone!" Ye Shiheng ordered the guards behind him.
The guards dispersed to look for someone.
Prince Qinghe arrived slowly and shouted, "Ye Shiheng, how dare you! Who allowed you to trespass into my palace?"
Ye Shiheng said defiantly, "You are the one who is so presumptuous! Zhao You, you detained this general's son and tortured him!"
Prince Qinghe was puzzled. "Who detained your son? Nonsense!"
"Your Majesty."
Liu Dong came over and whispered something in King Qinghe's ear, and King Qinghe's angry face quickly darkened.
Ye Shiheng looked at Prince Qinghe and asked quietly, "Prince, where is my son?"
Qinghe's face was sullen, and he said unhappily, "Your son seduced my daughter and trespassed into my palace. What's wrong with me giving him a small punishment and a big warning?"
Ye Shiheng snorted coldly, "It takes two to tango. You said my son seduced your daughter, and you said it was true? I said it was your daughter who seduced my son."
Not long after, the guards who were searching came back and said, "General, the Fourth Young Master is in the torture chamber in the backyard."
"Walk."
Ye Shiheng walked past Prince Qinghe and hurried to the backyard.
"Ye Shiheng!"
Prince Qinghe hurriedly chased after Ye Shiheng and soon caught up with him. After all, he was a prince, so how could he allow a minister to break into the palace at will?
It's such a disgrace to him!
Prince Qinghe tried to stop Ye Shiheng, but Ye Shiheng, a warrior with great strength, pushed Prince Qinghe away and said coldly, "Zhao You, if anything happens to my son, we will settle all our grudges together!"
Led by the guards, Ye Shiheng quickly arrived at the torture room in the backyard, where he saw a young man tied to a cross. He was in tattered clothes, had messy hair, and his body was covered in blood. It was a shocking sight!
Seeing this, Ye Shiheng hurried forward, brushed aside the messy hair hanging in front of Ye Songyan's forehead, held Ye Songyan's head, looked at the boy's pale face, and said anxiously: "Son! Yan'er, wake up! Yan'er!"
"Wujing, untie me!"
"Yes!" Wujing untied the hemp rope that bound Ye Songyan.
Soon, the hemp rope was untied, and Ye Shiheng supported Ye Songyan and let him lean on him.
Wujing checked up and down and said, "General, the Fourth Young Master is not in danger for the time being."
Ye Shiheng nodded, feeling relieved.
"Xiao Si, can you walk?" Ye Shiheng called his son.
Ye Songyan wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't. He wanted to raise his hand, but his hand rose a little and then dropped again.
"Wujing, lend a hand." Ye Shiheng said.
Wujing supported Ye Songyan and held up his body. Ye Shiheng bent his back, and Wujing placed Ye Songyan on Ye Shiheng's back.
Ye Shiheng hunched over with all his strength, and Ye Songyan was on his broad back.
Ye Shiheng and others walked out of the torture room, and were surrounded by guards led by Princess Qinghe.
"Catch them all for me!" Princess Qinghe said sternly.
The guards of the Qinghe Palace were about to attack with swords drawn, but Ye Shiheng shouted sternly, "Let's see who dares!"
The guards of the palace stopped and looked at Ye Shiheng. He was the most heroic general of the Song Dynasty, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops from the western border. Who would dare to attack him easily?
Princess Qinghe raised her voice, "Whoever dares to take a step back, I will chop off his head!"
The guards looked at each other, holding their swords and facing Ye Shiheng and others, and took a step forward.
They were also in a dilemma. They had to obey the princess's orders, and General Ye was an important official and general, so they could not touch him!
Ye Shiheng cast his hawk-like eyes at Prince Qinghe. After all, the person in charge of the Qinghe Palace was Prince Qinghe, not Princess Qinghe. He said, "Prince Qinghe, tell your people to get out! Otherwise, don't blame me, Ye Shiheng, for slaughtering people in your palace!"
Prince Qinghe glanced at Ye Shiheng and his son, then at the guards on his left and right. "Step back and let them go."
The guards glanced at Prince Qinghe, and seeing that their master had no other intentions, they stepped back a few steps.
Princess Qinghe said dissatisfiedly, "Your Highness, no, we can't let them go."
Prince Qinghe asked Princess Qinghe, "Could it be that you want to kill Ye Shiheng?"
Princess Qinghe choked, "Me?"
Ye Shiheng is a great general, and she knows how important he is. How could she dare to kill him?
King Qinghe signaled the guards to step back and make way.
"Let's go." Ye Shiheng said to Wujing and others.
Ye Shiheng took a step forward and headed towards the palace gate, followed by Wujing and others.
Prince Qinghe said calmly, "Ye Shiheng, for the sake of General Ye Gucheng, I will forgive your crime of trespassing into my palace today. Please also take good care of your son. If you have any other ideas again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Ye Shiheng glanced at Prince Qinghe from the corner of his eye and strode out of the Prince Qinghe's mansion.
Prince Qinghe watched Ye Shiheng and the others walk away, with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes.
General Ye, today I am repaying your help back then.
In the future, if the Ye family hinders my great cause again, I will show no mercy.
After Ye Shiheng returned home, he took Ye Songyan directly to Rongliyuan, kicked open the door, walked into the room, and put Ye Songyan on the couch.
"Rongyue, go and call Huaer!" Ye Shiheng couldn't suppress the urgency in his eyes and directly urged Madam Ouyang.
Madam Ouyang nodded and sent Cuizhi and Ayu to Guanju Pavilion to invite someone. "You two go and invite the young lady over."
Cuizhi received the order and was about to go to Guanju Pavilion to ask for flowers to bloom.
Ye Shiheng said: "Yue'er, you and Cuizhi go, hurry up!"
Madam Ouyang was a little confused. When had Ye Shiheng ever urged her so urgently? But looking at the fourth boy lying on the couch with wounds all over his body and half dead, she still took Cuizhi and hurried to Guanju Pavilion to find Hua Fushu.
As soon as the master and servant arrived at the gate of Rongliyuan, they bumped into Hua Fushu and Sanqiao.
"Flower, I'm looking for you——"
Before Madam Ouyang could finish her words, Hua Fushu interrupted her, "Mom, stop talking. I know everything. I'll go treat Xiao Si's injuries first."
Hua Fushu walked away quickly.
"Hua'er, the fourth boy is in the guest room, the one next to his mother's bedroom." Mrs. Ouyang shouted.
Hua Fushu didn't look back, "I know!"
Ye Shiheng took off Ye Xiaosi's clothes and carefully examined the wounds on his body, including whip marks, burns from branding irons, and so on.
Hua Fushu took Xiao Si's pulse, checked Xiao Si's wound, prepared a potion, and asked Ye Shiheng to clean Xiao Si's wound.
Hua Fushu took out a bottle of secret golden medicine and gave it to Ye Shiheng. With the help of Wujing, Ye Shiheng applied the medicine to Xiao Si and bandaged the wound.
Hua Fushu wrote another prescription, instructing that three bowls of water be boiled into one bowl, and that Xiao Si be given one bowl each morning and evening.
