Li Zhi rested for a while and then continued to beat Yun Jin. When he was tired, he beat Yun Jin again after a break. Yun Jin clearly felt that there must be some personal grudge in this beating.
Li Zhi's strength is not very strong, and his body has deteriorated greatly over the years. Hitting someone, especially someone like Yun Jin who has rough skin and thick flesh and is wearing soft armor, is naturally ineffective.
In order to prevent Li Zhi from becoming the first emperor in history who exhausted himself to death because of beating his son-in-law, Yun Jin fainted with a loud cry under the look of Ruichun, the governor of Baiqisi who came in a hurry.
The eunuch and Chun came over to test Yun Jin's breathing, and then said to the emperor: "I fainted."
Ruichun, the chief governor of Baiqisi, also quickly begged for mercy: "The fault does not lie with the prince-in-law. Your Majesty should not criticize him harshly."
Li Zhi, who was out of breath, waved his hand and said: "Send it to the imperial physician for treatment."
So, Yun Jin, who fainted, was carried by the eunuchs to the imperial doctor's office.
Hearing that his emperor father was beating Yun Jin endlessly, Prince Li Hong hurried over and when he saw the emperor, he knelt down to plead for Yun Jin without saying a word.
Li Zhi, who was breathing evenly, took a sip of tea and said, "I will beat Yun Jin just as Yun Chu beat you back then."
Hearing what the emperor's father said, Li Hong's chest felt like a ball of cotton was blocked, and he was choked and speechless. When he came here, he thought his father was angry about Taiping, so he beat Yun Jin.
I understand that my father feels sorry for the fact that he was beaten so badly by his master...
"The master beat the child because the child was at fault."
"This time I beat Yun Jin because Yun Chu was at fault."
Li Hong did not continue to defend. He knew that this was the love from his father. Nothing he said seemed redundant, so he just accepted it with peace of mind.
"I have conveyed the decree that anyone who gets involved with artillery will die, but you are different. The prince's sixth command must be equipped with artillery. I have left six artillery pieces for you. They are in Wannian County. Remember to take them with you when you return to Chang'an.
Walk."
Li Hongdao: "Where is the Queen..."
Li Zhi sneered and said: "If she dares to bother about the artillery again, I will give peace to Yunchu."
Li Hong quickly said: "Absolutely not."
Li Zhi said: "Since she is willing to strip her daughter naked and send her to other men's bathhouses, why shouldn't I reward Taiping to Yunchu? At least, I can guarantee that Taiping can live happily in the Yun family."
Li Hong shook his head and said, "This is not good for Taiping."
Li Zhi sighed and said: "Many years ago, I no longer wanted everything to go smoothly, let alone have a top-notch result. I would be satisfied if I only got a mid-range result if I wanted to do the best.
You go and see Yun Jin, he may be seriously injured today. In the final analysis, it is because I have nowhere to vent the anger in my heart, so I can only vent my anger on the people close to me."
Regarding Li Zhi's weak side, Li Hong could only sigh secretly in his heart. His father is now a harsh and cruel emperor. Even if he gives an order, he can destroy countless families. This kind of toughness just means that he
Very weak now.
Killing is always the last option for an emperor. After all, negotiation in politics is far more important than killing. If you can successfully negotiate in an environment with a hundred people and a thousand ideas, you can finally achieve your goal.
The emperor is the truly powerful emperor, not whoever kills more people is the most powerful emperor.
Yun Jin was beaten very miserably by the emperor today. When Li Hong arrived at Yun Jin's residence, he found that Li Si was feeding Yun Jin loquats.
These large orange-yellow loquats come from Baidi City. It is said that the loquat trees there drank the tears of Han Lie Emperor Liu Bei, so they grew extraordinarily large. And because Liu Bei's tears contained salt, after the salt and sugar were mixed, they would only
The sweetness is more obvious, so the loquats from Baidi City are more delicious than those from other places.
When Yun Jin saw Li Hong coming, she coughed and said, "My lungs were injured after being beaten by His Majesty, so I took some loquat to moisten my lungs."
Li Hong pulled up his robe, revealing his still blue arms and said, "I am the one who needs nourishment."
After saying that, he picked up the loquat on the plate and started eating it.
Li Si said angrily: "You didn't even try to persuade my father to beat my husband like this."
Li Hong spit out a huge loquat core and said: "Father, you should have asked me to help you, so that you wouldn't be exhausted and you wouldn't fail to achieve the goal.
Besides, when the master beat me, I remember that you seemed to be standing by and watching."
Yun Jin saw that her uncle and brother-in-law could see everything clearly, so she stopped pretending, sat up from the bed and said: "The Queen is still camping outside Jiucheng Palace. Your Majesty does not see the Queen like this, I am very worried.
Over time, the queen will misjudge and make things get out of hand."
Li Hongdao: "It seems that my father is a little afraid of meeting his mother."
Yun Jin frowned when he heard this and said, "Afraid? Where do you start talking about this?"
Li Hong sighed and said: "That's what it means. The father seems to have a strong sense of guilt towards the mother. The father knows that he cannot indulge the mother. However, every time he restrains and hits the mother, he will give her more compensation later.
, at the same time, the mother queen will also become more powerful.
?????55.?????
Although I don’t know where this feeling comes from, I just feel that my father is afraid of seeing my mother.”
Yun Jin didn't doubt Li Hong's views on the emperor and the empress at all. After all, he was their biological son. The so-called son was like a father. Sometimes, he could also hear the opposite of what he said.
The conflict between the emperor and the empress cannot be reconciled by outsiders, and they are not worthy of being reconciled. If it is good, they can only slowly understand and tolerate each other. If it is bad, they will fight and kill each other.
Yun Jin knew this, and Li Hong certainly knew it too. As for Li Si, she felt that all the faults in the world were her mother's fault. Although this was unreasonable, that's what Li Si thought.
"My father threatened my mother and planned to marry Taiping off to my master if she didn't stop."
Yun Jin raised her head in surprise and said, "Be a concubine?"
Li Si burst out laughing after hearing this and said to Li Hong: "If I see Taiping in the future, won't I have to call her mother?"
Li Hong frowned and said, "That's what my father said."
Li Si smiled and said: "Anyway, my father's daughter is not worth anything. One of Xiao Shufei's two daughters was married to a city gate official, and the other was married to a Jinwu guard who patrolled the streets. I married Mei Yuer well, but I didn't expect that.
Taiping can marry better.
Although my father-in-law is almost forty years old, he looks very young, and with his strong body, he is much better than the handsome boys Taiping likes."
Yun Jin slapped Li Si on the back and said, "Stop talking nonsense."
Li Si said with a cold face: "It's not uncommon for royal princesses to marry octogenarians, and it's not uncommon for princesses to serve their families for three generations. To be honest, it's really a good marriage for Taiping to marry Aye."
Li Hong looked at Yun Jin and said, "You have to be careful. I don't think my mother will refuse Taiping's marriage to the master."
Yun Jin shook her head decisively and said, "I, Aye, can't pass that level."
Li Hongdao: "Do you want to tell the master about this?"
Yun Jin ignored the worry in Li Hong's eyes and laughed and said: "No need."
This kind of decision also comes from a son's understanding of his father.
Jiucheng Palace was tightly guarded by Xue Rengui's troops, but this did not prevent Wu Mei, who lived in Famen Temple, from learning about the conversation between the emperor and the prince in the evening.
Famen Temple is only a hundred miles away from Jiucheng Palace, and a quick horse can kill it in half an hour. Therefore, just when Li Hong, Naha, Yun Jin, and Li Si were talking about Taiping's marriage as a joke,
Wu Mei already knew everything.
After Wu Mei, who was sitting in meditation in front of Sakyamuni Buddha, read the note brought by Aunt Chun, she said to Taiping, who was also kneeling in front of the Buddha in silk clothes: "Your father is planning to marry you to Yun Chu.
.”
Taiping's body trembled for a moment, then he immediately regained his composure and said softly: "The Lord treats me as a baby."
Wu Mei said: "Is that really the case?"
Taiping sighed and said: "The child's eyes are not blind."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "The Yun family is deeply involved with the Li family. He is even your sister's sub-father. He has raised your sister since she was a child. He loves her so much that he treats you as an adult baby."
Taiping raised his head and looked at his mother's face and said, "Mother's plan failed, and she made the child shameless to see the king again in the future."
Wu Mei raised her hand and scratched Taiping's fair face with her long nails and said: "The reason why Yunchu treats you like a baby is because of His Majesty and for his children. To put it bluntly, these are all due to etiquette and law.
.
If etiquette does not exist, a beauty like you will definitely become the favorite of a tiger-like man like Yun Chu."
Taiping hesitated and said, "The Lord doesn't know how!"
Wu Mei smiled and said: "So, you still fall in love with Yun Chu after all."
Taiping opened his mouth and said: "Mother, Chang'an cannot be taken away."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "The queen mother naturally knows that Chang'an cannot be taken away."
Taiping said doubtfully: "The Queen Mother suffered heavy losses in the Chang'an bombardment, especially the two brothers Wu Chengsi and Wu Sansi. I am afraid they will have many complaints against the Queen Mother."
Wu Mei laughed loudly and said: "The Wu brothers are no longer under the Queen Mother's command. As early as two years ago, these two brothers have become puppets in Yun Chu's hands. What does it matter to the Queen Mother whether they die or not?"
Taiping said in surprise: "Everyone in the world knows that their brothers are the lackeys of their mother's backdoor."
Wu Mei looked at the tall Sakyamuni Buddha and said, "You are wrong. They are the lackeys of Yunchu's sect. Although their brothers are unwilling to admit it, the lackeys of the sect are the lackeys of the sect and they have no control over them."
When Taiping saw that the queen was unwilling to tell her the cause and effect of the Chang'an bombardment, she knew that she was not the most important person in the eyes of her mother. After coming to this conclusion, Taiping paid homage to Sakyamuni Buddha seriously.
, this time she did not pray for others, she only wished her life to be safe and smooth.
