When Li Jun woke up from his deep sleep for the second time, Qin Yao was no longer by his side. He seemed a little confused and wanted to get up to see the situation, but he discovered the problem with this movement.
He couldn't move.
This is different from physical weakness caused by an injury. He could clearly feel his own condition. Although there was still a dull pain in the wound, and there were tickling sensations all over his body where he was injured after falling down the hillside, these did not affect his ability to get up. Li Jun originally thought that this might be caused by not being active for many days, so he forcibly mobilized his true energy to verify his idea. However, as the internal energy wandered, he gradually felt a pain like gangrene attached to the bone. In an instant, it swept through the whole body, and there was a dull pain in the heart. This pain was not the pain of piercing the flesh, nor was it the pain of breaking the ribs. The pain was not the feeling of a knife cutting the flesh, it was the pain coming from deep in the flesh and blood. corrupts the human will. And as he mobilized his Qi, the feeling of pain became clearer and heavier. Li Jun seemed to understand something and hurriedly dispersed his Qi. As expected, the severe pain all over his body was instantly relieved a lot. . But the same process of rising and dormant poisonous gas also caused him to suffer a lot, and after being stimulated, the poisonous gas rushed straight into his heart, forcing him to gather his inner strength to protect his heart again. This process inevitably required After suffering some hardship, Li Jun had no choice but to wait for the poisonous energy to dormant on its own. Only the constant stimulation of this pain could make him realize that this was not a dream, and that he really could not move his limbs. I can't move or speak. What kind of poison is this? It's so weird that even a person like Li Jun, who has practiced martial arts all year round, can't resist it. It's really a bit vicious.
As the poisonous gas calmed down, Li Jun was slowly able to think. The reason why he chose not to tell Qin Yao the truth at that time was because he knew that even if he told Qin Yao the truth, Qin Yao himself would never be able to compete with the prince, and it might even lead to death. At that time, Li Jun was thinking that it would not be too late to settle accounts with the prince when his injury was better, but he did not expect that the fate did not go as planned and he was actually poisoned.
It stands to reason that under the protection of the personal guards, even if Qin Yao is in trouble, he will never let anyone poison him. I just don’t know what happened in the meantime. Qin Yao Not in the room either. And from the time he woke up to now, he has not seen anyone come into the room. This is not consistent with common sense. Even if it is just the prefect's mansion and the prince is injured and staying temporarily, there should not be a lack of maids, doctors, etc., I just don't know what this is. situation, but presumably it has something to do with the prince.
After a long time, the door was finally opened from the outside, but no sunlight came through, and the person who came in was not the person he expected.
Prince Li Hao saw that Li Jun was completely awake. Although he was a little surprised that his physique was indeed unusual for ordinary people, there was no look of surprise on his face. It seemed that this was what he had expected.
The prince sat beside the bed and helped Li Jun up, still a little worried.He asked: "I heard that you want to report me? Do you want to get rid of me? Do you want to take my place? Haha."
While chuckling, the prince suddenly grabbed Li Han's abdomen. The wound, which was originally bandaged, was soaked with blood in an instant. Cold sweat dripped from Li Jun's forehead. The already weak man looked pale with no trace of blood. Seeing Li Jun's painful look, the prince seemed to finally feel satisfied, so he let go of his wound, wiped his bloody palm clean on Li Jun's white clothes, and then continued: "What do you think?" If I fail, can you win? Stupid. In the past ten years in the military camp, you have learned nothing but tricks like your mother? Are you afraid that you have forgotten what you are like in the royal family? There is an eleventh brother below you. Even if you defeat me, you will definitely not be the next crown prince. Humph, poverty in the military camp? In the days to come, you will gradually feel what true poverty is. ”
Li Jun felt very baffled by the sudden surge of hatred from the prince, which was why he had never been able to guard against the prince. The two are indeed at odds. Of course, to be precise, Li Yan has no good relationship in the entire royal family. The root of all this is because of their father, Emperor Yan Ping. Under Emperor Yan Ping's deliberate instigation of isolation, Li Yan obviously He is the eldest son of the current queen. He has a very noble status, but he is like an abandoned son and can be bullied by everyone in the royal family. Although the situation was miserable, there was actually no deliberate embarrassment from Emperor Yan Ping. Li Han lived a good life at other times, except for being a little lonely.
Li Hao and Li Han, the Crown Prince and the King of Jin, on the surface they have a bad relationship, often argue and even fight, but in fact Li Hao has often asked Li Hao for help over the years. Li Hao was not completely alienated from his younger brother, but they were in the royal family and had to avoid taboos. Moreover, the first thing they had to do to survive in the palace was not to disobey their father, Emperor Yan Ping, otherwise they would end up in trouble. As miserable as Li Jun.
Until now, Li Jun still doesn't understand what the prince said. What about reporting or overthrowing the prince? When did he have such thoughts? He knew that the prince was indeed not as smart as him, but he wasn't so stupid that he didn't realize he was being plotted, right? Of course it’s not necessarily the case. Tigers all take naps, let alone the prince.
"Your Highness, the concubine Xie is here."
At this time, Lu Tong has brought the concubine Xie of King Jin here, which makes Li Jun even more confused about Xie. Why did Shi appear here? Shouldn't she be in the palace? As a feudal prince guarding the border, Emperor Yan Ping was extremely worried about him, and even went against common sense and demanded that his family members must stay in the capital. What did this prince mean by asking the feudal family members to stay in the capital? This shows that Emperor Yan Ping was extremely afraid of him. However, Li Jun didn't feel much about this. He only knew the name of this Xie family. He was in the army all year round and rarely returned to Beijing. The concubine Xie family and a concubine were all given to him by the palace. , no one asked him for his opinion at all, and Li Jun didn’t have any reply.Yes, I only know a name, and even one of them has forgotten his name.
Seemingly understanding Li Jun's confusion, the prince kindly replied: "This is the Prince of Jin's Mansion. My seventh brother hasn't been home for many years. Doesn't it feel a little strange here? Humph, Mrs. Xie."
Ms. Xie quickly replied: "My concubine is here."
"Watch your prince carefully and don't let him die. No one is allowed to approach him without Gu's permission. Outside the mansion Gu has sent people to guard the house, and you must keep an eye on Gu. Also, don’t forget the bowl of medicine every day.”
“Yes, I will obey the order of Prince Jun.” "
The prince waved his hand and let the frightened Xie go down.
After Mr. Xie left, Lu Tongcai said: "Your Highness, the matter of the Huben Army has calmed down."
The prince nodded and said to Li Jun: "The matter of the Tiger Army has been settled." Don’t you know? My father decreed that Zhendong General Fuliang and Military Advisor Zhang Guang colluded with the Northern Ye tribe to commit treason, causing our army to suffer heavy losses in the battle of Dingyun City, so they were sentenced to death.”
The prince deliberately paused for a long time. Seeing that Li Jun’s expression was really unremarkable, he had to continue: "It’s a pity that the guarding soldiers let the two of them go, which made the father furious and sentenced him to this. The two hundred and thirty-eight soldiers involved were killed, but unexpectedly it caused a mutiny among the soldiers. "
This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.
The prince seemed to be quite critical of Emperor Yan Ping's order, or rather looked down upon it.
"In the end, I can't just let him go and calm down the public anger. Speaking of which, your personal guard commander Qin Yu is also very loyal to you. Originally, he was the first person I wanted to attack. In the end, he ran away. But it doesn't matter anymore, your personal guard has been disbanded by me, and Qin Yu can't do anything."
Prince Li Hao seemed to have thought of something, and turned around again. And he asked Lu Tong: "Can the guards outside the door be trusted?"
Lu Tong replied: "The five hundred guards are all carefully selected, with three layers inside and three outside." The Prince Jin's Mansion was completely surrounded to ensure that not a single insect could fly in."
The prince nodded and asked, "Are there any of these people from the Hu Ben Army?"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, these people all know the truth, and absolutely no one has anything to do with the Huben Army or the King of Jin."
The prince felt relieved after making sure that there were no mistakes.
Lu Tong said hesitantly: "But there is one more thing that I need to ask Your Highness for permission."
"What is it?"
"The prince-in-law Yang Zhuming has been here for five consecutive years. I asked to see the King of Jin every day, and today I went to the imperial palace to ask for an imperial edict to meet the King of Jin."
The prince twitched his lips and said, "What did the emperor say?"
"Your Majesty. He said that King Jin was seriously injured and needed to rest, so he was not allowed to visit.
The prince nodded, as if he was not surprised by this, but still said: "Keep a close eye on Prince Jin's Mansion, but don't let them break in."
Lu Tong knew it well. Who do these "they" refer to.
"Is there anything unusual about the queen?"
Lu Tong shook his head and said: "No. The queen only said, 'Since you are injured, take good care of yourself.' There were no unnecessary words. It seems that he doesn’t intend to send anyone to ask.”
“What does King Chen say?”
King Chen Li is the youngest son of Emperor Yan Ping, the eleventh prince, and Queen Lu. The second son of the Jin Dynasty, the younger brother of Jin Wang Li Jun.
"King Chen and the Queen mean the same thing, but they said they would not visit King Jin until his injury improves."
The prince sneered, but did not take what King Chen said He took it to heart, but turned to Li Han and said, "This is your queen mother, your good brother. Are you sad?" The prince felt that something was wrong with Li Han's face.
Li Jun forced a smile, his face turned slightly red, and then he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted. The prince was shocked, thinking that he had gone too far, which made him angry to death. Fortunately, his breathing was still there and his pulse was still there, so he felt relieved and had no intention of continuing to play. He only ordered the guards to strengthen their guard and not allow anyone to get close, and then left.
