Upon hearing this, Xu Hui immediately stepped forward to examine the wound. Seeing that it was only superficial and not a serious injury, she immediately offered words of comfort.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. When I was a child, I saw my father punish my younger brother. His injuries were even more severe than this. He was able to get out of bed after lying in bed for half a month."
"I hope so..."
"Oh, by the way, could you help me take off my grandson's wet clothes? I'm clumsy and afraid of hurting him..."
"promise!"
Sanglin Village was not far from Xianyang. Xu Hui had just taken off Li Jue's clothes when Yuchi Fan rushed over with the imperial physician.
"Your Majesty..."
"No need for these formalities, hurry up and treat the child's injuries!"
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Wang Jingyun hurriedly examined the injury. After just one glance, the old man gasped in shock.
"hiss……"
"Who hit so hard? How could they beat the child like this!"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin was so ashamed that he wished he could cover his face with his sleeve.
"Physician Wang, just tell me, is this injury serious or not!"
"It's not heavy, but the child is probably going to suffer a bit!"
Upon hearing that it wasn't serious, Li Shimin immediately felt relieved.
"Let him suffer, he really deserves to suffer a bit!"
"Huh!"
"Your Majesty, the birthmark on this child's back..."
Wang Jingyun was an experienced physician who had treated Li Jue when Li Jue was very young. Therefore, upon seeing the distinctive birthmark on Li Jue's back, he immediately recognized Li Jue's identity.
"Your Majesty, wasn't our eldest grandson supposed to have perished in the fire? How could this be..."
"Cough cough..."
"This is a long story, and I will explain it to you another day. However, you are not allowed to tell anyone what you saw and heard today, not even your wife!"
"Your Majesty understands!"
"Your Majesty, I will treat your injuries immediately!"
Seeing that the injured person was the eldest grandson, Wang Jingyun knew that this was a serious matter. He quickly took out a stack of fine linen cloth to absorb the blood from the wound before gently applying the family's secret ointment to the affected area.
"Your Majesty, I will prescribe another dose of herbal medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. I guarantee that the eldest grandson will be able to get out of bed within three days!"
Upon hearing that he could be out of bed in three days, Li Shimin was immediately in high spirits and rewarded Wang Jingyun with ten bolts of brocade.
Of course, these ten bolts of brocade were not just a reward, but also hush money for him.
"You know what to say when you get back, right?"
"Know!"
"When I return, if anyone asks, I will say that an old friend is ill and I have asked to go and take a look at him!"
"Um!"
"Go and rest. I'll call you if I need anything!"
"Your Majesty, I will go and prepare the medicine first, and then leave after the Imperial Grandson wakes up..."
"good!"
Whether it was due to the miraculous effect of Wang Jingyun's ointment or some other reason, Li Jue slowly woke up shortly after Wang Jingyun left.
"pain……"
"It hurts so much, waaaaah..."
Li Shimin was overjoyed to see his grandson awake. But when he heard his grandson cry out in pain, he was so ashamed that he wanted to disappear into the ground.
Why are my hands so dark!
When Li Shimin saw Li Jue reach out to touch his buttocks, he immediately pressed his hand down.
"Big Sun, bear with it. Your butt has just been treated. Don't touch it!"
"It hurts so much, waaaaah..."
"Um... I really went too far, I apologize to you..."
Li Jue was annoyed just hearing this person's voice, so he snorted and turned his head inside.
"Hmph!"
"I am too unworthy to be associated with you. I will return to Qianzhou tomorrow and never come back to this wretched Chang'an again, sob sob sob..."
"well!"
"Didn't I apologize to you? Why are you still angry?"
Li Jue immediately became furious upon hearing this.
Why should I accept your apology?
"We're not related, why are you hitting me like that!"
"From childhood to adulthood, have I ever eaten a single grain of rice from your family, or spent a single penny of your family's money?!"
"I...I..."
Li Shimin was rendered speechless by Li Jue's barrage of retorts, and could only let out a helpless sigh in the end.
"well!"
"I'm not going to argue with you now, we'll talk about it after you've recovered!"
"What?"
"You still want to hit me?"
Li Shimin also had a temper; who has he apologized to all these years?
I'm already doing my grandson a huge favor by apologizing to him now, but he still doesn't appreciate it!
"Hmph!"
"If you ever dare to ignore my words again, I'll still beat you up!"
Li Jue collapsed on the spot upon hearing this.
"Aaaaaah... I can't live like this anymore, waaaaah..."
"How pitiful I am! I finally made it to the Tang Dynasty, but all I've encountered are utterly wicked old men, boohoo..."
Li Shimin was extremely embarrassed upon hearing this. Seeing that Xu Hui was trying hard to suppress her laughter, he immediately entrusted her with the important task of taking care of Li Jue.
"Xu Hui, please look after Da Sun for me. I'm going outside for some fresh air!"
"Yes, ma'am! Hehe!"
Xu Hui really wanted to laugh; in all her years in the palace, this was the first time she had ever seen His Majesty suffer such a setback.
"Your name is Li Zhong, right?"
"No!"
"My name is Shi Dakai!"
"Don't be angry with your grandfather. He was only doing it for your own good, that's why he punished you."
"snort!"
"You don't know, your grandfather is usually so busy that he doesn't even have time to sleep. This time, he just finished a day of work and didn't even have dinner before coming to see you."
