The crown prince who was only granted a title by the British Duke actually fell off his horse!
He also broke his leg, and the imperial doctor said it couldn't be cured, so he came out of the British government palace shaking his head.
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the capital.
My leg was broken. I don’t know if one leg was broken or both legs were broken. Can I still walk?
If he can't walk, he will be paralyzed in bed. I'm afraid he will no longer be the heir apparent. Then wouldn't the title of the British Duke be advantageous to others?
Oops, this young prince has a really hard life. Just like his mother, he has not enjoyed any blessings.
If I had known this, I might as well not have gone back home!
Although he is just a commoner outside, at least his legs are still good and he can run and jump. He might have lost his life inside the gate of this mansion.
Look at Dingbeihou's house, didn't all three legitimate sons die in infancy? In the end, the concubine got the advantage. I heard that Dingbeihou's wife is going crazy now, how pitiful she is.
Oops, what's going on inside this big house, it looks so bright, but it's still so dirty inside.
The news that Huo Nian had thrown his horse suddenly spread in the capital, and all the noble houses were informed of the news. There was a lot of discussion.
Originally there were people who sympathized with Zhang Jie and felt that as soon as Huo Nian showed up, he would take Zhang Jie's position and complain on his behalf.
Huo Nian is innocent, but what did Zhang Jie do wrong? The young master who has been called for so long thought he could attack the prince, but was suddenly robbed. The gap is too big, how can it be accepted?
Originally, many people were fighting for Zhang Jie, but suddenly there was no voice.
Great sympathy for Huo Nian.
Huo Erhuai and Yang were so distressed that they ran over early in the morning, hugged Huo Nian and cried, blaming Huo Xi for not notifying them yesterday.
"Does it hurt? Oh, it's going to kill my mother!" Ms. Yang kept wiping her tears.
The child who grew up in her hands has always been happy and joyful since he was a child. He would lie in bed and couldn't even get out of bed.
Huo Erhuai's eyes were also red, and he wanted to go to Wu to fight for his life.
Huo Xi and others persuaded him to stop him.
"What a cruel heart. Her own son is a human being, but someone else's son is not a human being? Doesn't he deserve to live? She stepped on Nian'er's mother. It's not enough to enjoy the blessings for so many years, and she came to harm me.
Your son?"
Huo Erhuai thought that he would never have any children in this life, which was because it hurt to hold Nian'er in his hands. He had Nian'er riding on his neck since he was a child, and when he went to sell fish, he was afraid that his son would not be able to reach the road, so he had to carry his son with a fishing basket in the air.
Now when I see my son lying on the bed, he is shaking with anger and wants to tear Wu to death.
After only one night, not only Zhang Fu but also Huo Xi found out the matter.
It was a maid in Wu's courtyard who bought a drug that made the horses go crazy. She then approached the groom who was in charge of the stables and lured him into feeding the horses.
The groom didn't take the beating, so he immediately attacked.
When the maid in Wu's courtyard saw the defeat, she committed suicide without even being able to get in front of Zhang Fu.
She only confessed that she had watched Zhang Jie grow up, and that Huo Nian had robbed Zhang Jie of his position as heir apparent, and she did it to express regret for Zhang Jie.
There is no symptom of death.
But who knows that it was ordered by Wu?
Zhang Fu wanted to send Wu to Zhuangzi, but Wu yelled that Zhang Fu was unfair and had to blame her for things that were not her fault! She wanted to see the prince's concubine, the prince, and the emperor to argue her case!
Huo Xi laughed angrily and did not agree with her going to Zhuangzi.
When she got to Zhuangzi, she still had to find someone to watch her. Moreover, Zhang Fu couldn't bear her and couldn't bear her death. She also had two bargaining chips, Zhang Biyao and Zhang Jie. If she died, Zhang Fu would be able to control her.
The guilt for her was transferred to Zhang Jie, which was not worth the loss.
It's better to keep her under your nose.
Huo Xi stopped Zhang Fu and kept Wu in her courtyard.
However, Zhang Fu personally sent people to guard the courtyard gate.
"Xi'er, how about your mother and I take Nian'er home to raise him for a few days, and then let him come back until he is well?" Huo Erhuai suggested.
"Why are you coming back? Just let the child live at home! He was raised well in our house, but something happened as soon as he came back. If you don't feel sorry for me, I feel sorry for you!" Yang hugged Huo Nian and refused to let go.
When Qin Huaiyu and Yang Fu saw it, they both went to persuade him.
"Sister, you are stupid. If you take Nian'er back, won't you be giving others an advantage?"
Yang choked and tears fell again: "What should I do? If I watch him suffer all kinds of disasters, it would be like cutting off my flesh."
Huo Xi had no choice but to step forward to comfort her. After talking for a long time, they no longer insisted on taking Nian'er home.
"Then we need to add more people to guard Nian'er. If something happens next time, wouldn't it cost my life and your father's life? Can Zhufeng and the others do that? If not, let's spend more money to hire a few more guards.
My parents still have some money, so let your father and uncle go out and find some powerful guards."
Huo Xi couldn't resist her, so she had no choice but to agree and go look for her again.
As for Nian'er's horse-throwing incident, it all reached the emperor's ears. As soon as he came to court, he called Zhang Fu over to inquire about the situation.
After Zhang Fu explained the situation, the emperor looked at him intently.
Sighing, "My dear, now you should understand how I feel. The palms and backs of my hands are all flesh, and every one of them is my own. Like you, I only have three children. What if there are a few more?"
,Aren’t you afraid that you will be exhausted?”
Zhang Fu's head dropped even lower.
Although he and the emperor both have three sons, he is not as vacillating as the emperor.
On the one hand, the emperor made a big cake for the king of Han, saying that the prince was in poor health and asked him to be more considerate.
Can the King of Han be compassionate?
Perhaps he thought that the emperor was hinting to him not to make any small moves. The prince was not in good health and it would be his turn to wait a little longer?
He would not paint a cake for Zhang Jie.
He gave Nian'er a title, and his position will belong to Nian'er a hundred years later. Nian'er is gone, and Nian'er's descendants will also belong to Nian'er. In a few years, Nian'er will be able to get married, not to mention that he is now very powerful.
, I’m afraid I can’t even wait until my great-grandchildren.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the emperor sigh.
"These heirs have many troubles, and few have their own troubles. Just you and me, there are only three sons. The King of Han said that Yunnan was bitterly cold and refused to accept the vassal, and wanted to change places. I felt soft-hearted, so I moved him to Qingzhou.
, that place is good, close to mountains and rivers, not far from the capital, but he still doesn’t want to go, saying he can’t bear to leave me. He said that his mother has gone and is afraid that I will be alone..."
Zhang Fu only regretted that he was suddenly deafened and couldn't hear.
What did the emperor want to say, what did he want to imply.
Do you think he is equally merciful?
Does the Emperor really care about the King of Han?
The emperor has suppressed the prince in these years, not allowing him to perform his duties as prince, and not allowing the king of Han to go to the vassal state. Keeping him in the capital has violated the ancestral system. Now the civil and military officials and nobles are fighting against each other, and there are many people who support the king of Han.
Cold sweat broke out on Zhang Fu's face.
"Your Majesty, my son's leg bone has not been broken. He will be fine after a few months of nursing. At that time, he can go with me to the north to mount a horse and kill the enemy, and drive away the Oara, Tatar and other tribes for the Emperor."
The emperor paused and nodded: "Very good. I believe that the tiger father will never have a son. The nobles in the capital are afraid that their fighting spirit will be weakened by staying in the capital for a long time. If they can be like you, I have nothing to worry about."
"Yes. I will dedicate myself to the emperor and protect my kingdom."
