Chapter 334: The Palace Doctor Goes Crazy
As the mother and son talked, they walked towards their own tent. The younger brothers in the mansion were still young and did not participate in the hunting. They just gathered together and talked and laughed.
Luo Ji felt stuffy in the tent and wanted to go out for some fresh air, but as soon as he came out he saw the two men.
Luo Jingfeng was listening to General Xiaofeng's report: "We caught a lot of prey and fed them drugs, so our movements became much slower. But unfortunately, Master Cheng's archery skills were really poor, and most of the prey escaped."
Luo Jingfeng laughed casually: "Haha, it doesn't matter, as long as he has fun."
General Xiaofeng continued, "Also... the prey was caught from two other forests, and one of them was taken away by the eldest son."
Luo Jingfeng raised his eyebrows.
“…”
Luo Ji heard it all.
What those young men said was right. The Luo family had indeed blocked a road. It was his father's doing. No wonder he encountered so few prey today, and they were all very small. It turned out that they were all given to Zong Jincheng.
"Young Master..." General Xiaofeng reminded him. Luo Jingfeng turned around and found that he had heard him.
He waved his hand and General Xiaofeng retreated.
Luo Ji looked at him and didn't speak first.
"Blame me?" Luo Jingfeng walked over and asked condescendingly.
Luo Ji said calmly, "Father, you are overthinking it. It's just a small hunt. I don't care."
Luo Jingfeng smiled, patted his shoulder and said, "Well, you are worthy of being my son, Luo Jingfeng, you are not fussy about trivial matters."
Luo Ji lowered his eyes and asked, "Why is father so kind to that adopted son?"
He didn't want to care about these things, nor did he care whether his father gave all his favor to that child. But he had to ask clearly, otherwise his mother would definitely ask him if she knew about it. With her irresponsible personality, it would be better to let him ask.
Luo Jingfeng's smile faded, and he squinted his eyes and said, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask."
Luo Ji understood.
You can't ask about that person's affairs.
He bowed his head and took his leave. When he got home, he had to tell his mother not to go against that child in the future, so as not to anger his father.
Far away from the Marquis's Mansion.
As soon as Zong Jincheng jumped off the carriage, he quietly told Shunzi, "Go ask the court doctor to check the prey to see if there is any poison in them. I think they are not in good spirits and may not be normal."
He thought about it and still felt that something was wrong. Regardless of whether it was Luo Jingfeng who did it, those large prey always seemed weird.
"Ah?" Shunzi was confused. "Not very energetic? Aren't all the prey already shot dead?"
"I mean before he is shot to death." The little devil suddenly remembered, "Oh, by the way, check the little wild boar that Shen Yibai has been holding. That idiot will have to eat it for three days. If there is any poison, the medicine will kill him."
Shunzi hissed and said quickly, "Yes, I will go find the palace doctor right away."
The court doctor who received the news was so shocked that he shouted three times: "Ah! Ah? Ah!"
Shunzi plugged his ears and said timidly, "This is all Master Cheng's idea. Could you please take a look?"
The court doctor was mad and said, "I am a doctor. I am here to treat people and keep them alive! What do you mean by sending me a bunch of prey? And they are all dead!!"
Shunzi was spitted all over his face. He blinked and said, "Ah, this... I can't ask a coroner to perform an autopsy..."
Palace doctor: “…”
He had a thousand dirty words in his mind.
The court doctor went to check the prey with a curse, especially the little wild boar, and then shouted angrily: "Call the chef to cut open the pig's belly!"
Shunzi coughed and went to do it immediately.
As he ran, he was still thinking: autopsy? Isn't this the job of a coroner?
As soon as Zong Jincheng returned, he called He Zheng over to talk in private.
He Zheng said excitedly: "Brother, are you going to teach me the secrets of learning?"
The little devil rolled his eyes at him and said, "There is no such thing as a secret book for learning. I learned well because of my natural talent."
He Zheng said with a gloomy face: "Ah... Well, that's disappointing. I was still thinking about how to catch up with Brother Wen Xiu, but I can't catch up... "
Zong Jincheng said with a complicated look in his eyes: "You were just enlightened late. If you studied at the same time as me, you would not necessarily lose to him. Moreover, your personality is more suitable for the officialdom than his. You will definitely have a bright future in the future."
He Zheng was so shocked that his eyes widened and blinked like dragonfly wings. He said in disbelief, "Brother? Did I hear you right? Are you complimenting me? Or are you complimenting me that I'm better than Brother Wen Xiu?"
He was used to being a younger brother to the older brothers in the key classes, and to be suddenly praised like this by Zong Jincheng was like a dream, so unreal.
The little devil nodded: "I didn't lie to you. I was telling the truth."
He Zheng was so happy that he almost wanted to punch him: "Thank you for your appreciation, big brother. When I enter the officialdom in the future, I will be your most loyal little brother. I will do whatever you tell me to do!"
"He Zheng."
"Brother, please give me your orders." He Zheng smiled and clasped his fists towards him.
Zong Jincheng asked him, "What do you think when Minister He apologizes to you today?"
He Zheng's smile froze. He shook his head and lost interest in joking. He sat down on the steps and said casually, "I don't have any idea. It feels even more unreal than your praise of me, big brother. My father is not a person who will bow his head. I think he is possessed by my mother."
Zong Jincheng also sat down with him. The two brothers supported themselves on the ground with their hands and stretched their legs out in front of them. Finally, they didn't mind the pain in their waists and just lay down on the steps, looking at the sky where there was still a little sunset.
"If he really didn't come to apologize to you voluntarily, would you be sad?" Zong Jincheng asked.
He Zheng said without hesitation: "That's the most normal thing, right? I've been his son for more than ten years, how can I not understand him? He is just that kind of person, what can I do? Who calls him the father and I the son?"
Zong Jincheng was amused by him: "It would be nice if we could switch people. You can be his father and let him be your son. Then you can beat him up every day until he can't get up."
"Hahaha, big brother, you have a good idea. It is unethical for a son to beat his father, but it is natural and reasonable for a father to beat his son." He Zheng chuckled when he thought about it.
Zong Jincheng laughed with him for a while before saying, "He was called here by Luo Jingfeng to apologize."
"Ah..." He Zheng was disappointed, then smiled calmly, suddenly realizing, "So that's how it is. Now it makes sense. Luo Jingfeng is really amazing. Everyone in the capital is afraid of him."
Zong Jincheng said: "I was not afraid of him. He almost strangled me to death, but I was not afraid of him. This is called being powerful and unyielding."
He Zheng laughed loudly: "As expected of you, big brother. Please accept my greetings."
"Okay, okay. I'll protect you from now on."
"good."
The two young boys lay on the steps, their hands behind their heads, their right legs crossed, lazily basking in the sunset.
