male concubine

Chapter 11 Assassination

"Where did Yehe go?" Haotian asked who had just entered the door.

"My Majesty, just now the golden leaf girl next to the imperial concubine came and said that she invited Mr. Yehe to the imperial garden to attend the gathering of ladies in the harem. Mr. Yehe has passed." A court lady stepped forward and reported to Haotian.

"What?" Haotian was surprised, turned around and was about to go out.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, Lu Xi ran out in a hurry. As soon as he reached the door, he saw Lu Xi hurried over, "Your Majesty, it's not good. I heard that Concubine Li Gui was holding a banquet in the Imperial Garden just now. The noble concubine pushed him to the ground, Young Master Yehe has been brought down by the noble concubine to take care of him."

"Yehe pushed Li Yan to the ground?" Haotian said in surprise, "How could he push Li Yan, it must be Li Yan's new method." Haotian said coldly.

"Let's go, take a look." Haotian strode ahead and hurried to Fenghua Palace.

Before entering the Fenghua Palace, the maids and eunuchs came in and out in a hurry, seeing Haotian, he only gave a slight salute and left.

"Why did the palace keep you quack doctors? I can't move at all now, and you still say that the palace is fine. Believe it or not, the emperor cut you off." As soon as he walked to the door, Haotian heard the words in the inner room. Li Yan cursed.

Haotian walked in, and saw the court ladies and eunuchs and many imperial doctors kneeling on the ground, and the imperial doctors even buried their heads on the ground, bowing their heads in silence.

Li Yan looked up and saw Haotian. Li Yan, who was blushing and thick-necked by cursing, quickly turned sickly, "Your Majesty, forgive me, I can't get up and salute." His face was full of grievances and weakness.

"Nothing, how did you make it look like this?" Haotian asked lightly

"Your Majesty, you want to be the master for my concubine. The concubine thinks that Yehe is a bit bored to be alone in the palace, so I also invited him to this concubine's banquet. Who knew he would give me embarrassment at the banquet. Look, I don't think anything, the young master is inevitably angry with me, who knew that when I passed by him when I left, he actually pushed me to the ground, and now I feel like I can't even move my feet." Li Yan was full of grievances, and said There were also a few tears in between.

Haotian frowned, didn't speak, turned around again, looked at the imperial doctor kneeling on the ground and asked, "How is your mother's injury?"

The imperial physicians looked at each other, and no one dared to get up to answer for a while. To be honest, they were afraid that Li Yan would blow the pillow wind in the emperor's ears, saying that they were dereliction of duty, that Li Yan was serious, and that the emperor would commit a crime of deceiving the emperor. No one would know for a while. How to answer, I can only lower my head, wishing to find a place to slip.

"Physician Hu, come and tell me the truth." Haotian was slightly annoyed.

"Yes" Imperial Physician Hu straightened his body, "in my humble opinion, the imperial concubine's body is fine, but I'm afraid that my medical skills are not good enough, and the diagnosis may be wrong."

Haotian laughed and said, "You doctor Hu dare to say that your medical skills are not good. I'm afraid this hospital is full of mediocrity."

"The emperor praised it absurdly," said Imperial Physician Hu.

"Forget it, you all go down, and prescribe some medicine for the imperial concubine to recuperate," Haotian said.

The imperial physicians breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated.Haotian looked at the maids and eunuchs kneeling on the ground again, "You are so good at serving your mother, don't be negligent, you know?"

"Yes" everyone answered

"Just stay here to recuperate well, don't leave Fenghua Palace if you have nothing to do, your health is important" and walked out without looking back.

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and called out to the emperor, Haotian didn't stop, and turned to look at Li Yan.Li Yan saw Haotian go out and fell on the bed without any strength, don't leave Fenghua Palace if you have nothing to do, hahaha, the emperor would ground her because of a male favorite, Li Yan shouted in her heart, "Yehe, I am Li Yan Even if I bet on my position as the noble concubine, I will put you to death and make you pay the price."

Haotian left Fenghua Palace, and Lu Xi followed closely, "Your Majesty, Mr. Yehe was locked in the forbidden room, do you want to go there now?" The so-called forbidden room is used to punish the court ladies and eunuchs who have made mistakes. Died slowly and silently in a small dark and damp room.

"Let's go now," Haotian said.

"Your Majesty..." Lu Xi called out

"Do you have anything else to do?" Haotian asked in amazement, Lu Xi has never been a hesitant person, and said everything directly, seeing Lu Xi's appearance now, it is unavoidable to be a little surprised.

"The little four beside Young Master Yehe was taken to Xinzheku, do you want to bring it back too?" Lu Xi asked tentatively

Haotian stopped when he heard the sound, turned around and looked at Lu Xi with a strange look, and jokingly said, "Why are you so interested in him? Could it be you..."

"I just think that Master Yehe is more suitable for Xiaosi to take care of him by his side. If something happens to Xiaosi, it is inevitable that you will be sad. I am also thinking of the emperor," Lu Xi explained awkwardly.

Haotian looked at Lu Xi's rare embarrassment, and couldn't help but smile, "You go to Xinzheku, just say my will, and bring Xiao Sier out."

"Yes" Lu Xi led the order and ran towards Xin Zheku, Yehe strode forward again and came to the forbidden room.

The guards guarding the forbidden room saw Haotian approaching from a distance, and hurried over to salute, "See the emperor".The guard was thinking about how Haotian came to this place, when he heard Haotian order "open the door"

The guard hurried over to open the door, and retreated tactfully,

Haotian pushed the door and went in, a damp musty smell came out, Haotian frowned, and saw a group squatting in the corner of the narrow room, Haotian looked carefully, Yehe squatted in the corner with his hands He hugged his feet tightly and buried his head in his arms, looking extraordinarily pitiful and charming.

Yehe raised his head to look at the person standing at the door, rubbed his eyes, looked at it carefully again with the light behind his back, froze for a moment, got up and hugged Haotian, buried his head in Haotian's chest, and sobbed .

Haotian rubbed Yehe's head, and said fondly, "Why are you crying again, didn't I come to pick you up?"

Yehe raised his head, his eyes were moist, and he said solemnly, "I really didn't push her, she fell by herself, but no one believed it, and locked me up in this rotten place."

Haotian smiled, and continued to comfort him, "I know you didn't push him. If others don't believe me, how can I not believe it? Let's go, the humidity here is too heavy, let's go back."

Yehe followed Haotian out of the forbidden room, and suddenly remembered Xiaosi, "Little Sier was taken to Xinzheku"

"It's okay, I have asked Lu Xi to let him out, let's go, let's go back to Qiankun Palace and have something to eat, after such a long day, aren't you hungry?" Haotian asked.

In the middle of the night, Haotian called Lu Xi.

"I remember you practiced martial arts since you were a child, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army may not be as capable as you," Haotian asked inexplicably.

"Your Majesty, as the Emperor's personal bodyguard, I naturally need to protect your safety, but the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is a general anyway, how can I compare with him?" Lu Xi replied.

"Then I'll just ask you, who is better between you and Li Gui?" Haotian asked.

Lu Xi seemed to be aware of something, "Although Li Gui is a general, but after all, he has a lot of brute force and resourcefulness in fighting. The minister may be slightly better than General Li."

"Okay then, I want you to go to Li Gui's mansion. I will hear the news that Li Gui was assassinated and killed by an assassin early tomorrow morning," Haotian ordered.

Lu Xi was taken aback, "Your Majesty, after so many years, why did you suddenly think of moving him?"

"I have intended this for a long time, it's just that there were unavoidable wars in the past few years, and he is still needed. Now that the world is stable, it's time to move him, but if I clearly cut his official position and beheaded him, he will be fine." With heavy troops in hand, it is inevitable that he will not rebel, and he has deep minions in the court, so it is difficult to do anything. Only when he is assassinated by others, will the military power return to me. As for some other minions, they are naturally scattered. Sha, there is nothing to be afraid of," Haotian analyzed coldly.

"Is the emperor also doing it for Young Master Yehe? Your majesty, do you want to touch Li Yan?" Lu Xi asked tentatively

"There must be some reasons for this," Haotian said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, there are some things that I shouldn't have said. It's just that the emperor treats Mr. Yehe like this now, so he has to say a few more words. Do you really love Mr. Yehe, Your Majesty? Or do you never forget your old man?" Lu Xi said in the voice Small down.

"I have my own sense of propriety, why do you need to talk too much here, hurry up and get things done," Haotian was angry.

Realizing that he touched Haotian's bottom line, Lu Xi hurriedly retreated.

Early in the morning of the second day, the news that Li Gui was assassinated and killed by an assassin spread throughout the capital.Although Li Gui knew that Haotian had the intention of the East Pagoda, he felt that Haotian would not dare to touch him in the clear. How could the majestic emperor use such a dirty method as assassination.So the defense is low, but it is a pity that he made a mistake in the calculation, Haotian still killed him with a method that could not be put on the table.

The capital city was full of wind and rain for a while, and everyone thought that Li Gui had offended someone and was assassinated by Master Gu, but he died so gloriously that the emperor not only chased after him, but also gave him a state funeral. A posthumous scenery.Let’s say Li Yan was originally confined in Haotian’s palace, but the news of his brother’s assassination came the next day, and he was heartbroken for a while, but he hated Yehe even more, she had to rely on the emperor to survive in the harem, and now without him Brother's protection inevitably requires a lot of effort on his own, and the most important thing is to get rid of the thorn in Yeho's side.
