Chapter 13

Luo Ping returned to the bamboo forest and buried the wooden box.He lit three sticks of incense, stood quietly in front of the tomb, and listened to the wind and wind for a while.

Feeling sorry for this innocent person, but no pain from guilt anymore.

In the past and present lives, I have seen such things too much, and my heart has become numb.

After tidying up his emotions, he went to Fudong Palace to take a look at Zhou Tang.

Zhou Tang just drank the tranquilizing medicine prescribed by the imperial physician and was sleeping soundly.

Luo Ping touched his forehead, it was still a little hot, thinking that the illness might take a few more days, but he couldn't stay here to guard him all the time.

Help him tuck the quilt, Luo Ping is about to leave.

Yun Xiang hesitated to speak several times, but finally couldn't help asking: "Master Luo, the emperor didn't make things difficult for you, did he? You, will you come here again?"

Luo Pingan smiled reassuringly: "Don't worry, I'm fine, but I can't visit him recently. If His Highness asks, you can say that I have to be busy with the assessment of Dali Temple, please forgive me."

"Well, the servant girl knows."

Rue Xiang sent Luo Ping away, looked at her sleeping master and sighed.

When he was awake before, he had been clamoring to see Luo Ping, but he was so confused by the fever that he refused to listen to any persuasion.

Now he is restless when he falls asleep, and he repeats two words over and over in his mouth, either "little master" or "sexy little master".If you want to tell him that Mr. Luo can't come, he might lose his temper.

The next day, Luo Ping was ordered to deliver a volume of documents to the third prince's residence.After the notification, it was said that the third prince was entertaining the sixth prince and asked him to wait for a while.

He drank two cups of tea in the side hall, but still did not see the third prince, so he got up to look for him.

The third prince, Zhou Pu, and the sixth prince, Zhou Yang, were born of the same mother. Their relationship is very close. Their mother, Concubine Yu Gui, is the only daughter of Prime Minister Zuo and is quite powerful in the court. Therefore, the two brothers have the same problem: Bullying.

Zhou Tang was often excluded and bullied by them when he was a child, and he didn't dare to go to Taiyuan Academy because the third prince had set the dog to scare him.For the other brothers, Zhou Tang just had no feelings, but for Zhou Pu and Zhou Yang, he was extremely disgusted.

Luo Ping crossed the Jiuqu corridor bridge and heard the barking of dogs not far away, so he knew that the sixth prince and the third prince were there.

Prime Minister Zuo's family were all dog lovers. Concubine Yu raised seven or eight puppies in the palace, and the third prince's house had even more, and most of them were trained wolf dogs.The sixth prince didn't have one, he was afraid that the emperor would say that he was too lazy to play with animals, but he also loved dogs very much and often came to play with the third brother.

Turning around the round arch is Zhou Pu's dog garden, Luo Ping was hesitating whether to go forward to salute, when he suddenly heard what they said, he stopped in his tracks.

"Third brother, just lend me that mad dog, I will be careful!"

"No! I told you that the dog is sick, and it will kill you if you bite it. I'm about to find someone to kill it. Don't mess around here."

"Hmph, that little bastard is already sickly now, multiple bites are no big deal, and then he will say that he died of illness himself, and the emperor won't care at all."

"If you say no, you can't. I'm not afraid of what will happen to him, but I'm afraid that you will be bitten. Yang Er, you don't know, the dog went crazy and the three of us couldn't hold it back."

"Then give it some perspiration medicine first, let me take it back to the palace first, and I will find a suitable time to put it in the Fudong Palace."

"Yang Er, don't be willful..."

"Just give it to me, and I promise not to make a big deal up." The sixth prince begged, pulling his brother's sleeve, "Third brother, don't you think that kid Zhou Tang has become more and more arrogant recently? No Talking about the last time I answered the question of my father in the palace, I said that he now runs to Chaoyang Palace to lie there every day. Heng'er is still young and ignorant, can't you see that he just wants to curry favor with the elder brother and Heng'er, the third brother , A shameless person like him shouldn't be tolerated!"

To put it bluntly, he still remembered Zhou Tang's grudge against him when he threw ink all over his face last time.In his perception, Zhou Tang is lowly, unworthy to be his brother, let alone compete with them for the throne.

Zhou Pu was annoyed by his begging. In fact, he also felt that Zhou Tang owed a lesson. Besides, Yang Er has a childish temper. chatter……

After thinking about it, he still agreed: "Okay, okay, I'll just give it to you. But Yang Er, listen, I'll give you a few more good wolfhounds, and you bring them into the palace together. When it’s over, you just say that you don’t know which dog is crazy, and you put the blame on the dog, do you hear me?”

"Well, I see, thank you third brother! It's still the third brother who thinks well."

……

Luo Ping retreated back to the side hall, his palms were sweaty.

He did not expect such an accident.He wanted Zhou Tang to take less detours and suffer less grievances, so he paved a road for him that he thought would be smooth.Unexpectedly, it was such an arrangement that actually brought him life-threatening.

This won't work, he can't let Zhou Tang stop here.

Luo Ping clenched his fists, thinking about the countermeasures in his heart.

----

After delivering the document to the third prince, Luo Ping went back to the Hanlin Academy to find a name to enter the palace.

From what Zhou Pu said, it seemed that the Mongolian sweat medicine had little effect on that mad dog, and maybe the sixth prince would act today.And Zhou Tang was still lying on the sickbed, how could he fight back?

Thinking of this, he didn't think much of it, so he brought the sauced beef soaked in enough arsenic and entered the palace.

He waited near the Fudong Palace, and sure enough, two hours later, the sixth prince came over with some dogs, as if he was going to the Central Stable Supervisor to ask for some leather ropes to tie the dogs.

One of the dogs was locked in a cage and carried by two eunuchs. Due to the effects of the medicine, the dog looked a little groggy, barking its teeth and drooling.

Zhou Yang asked people to put the cage on the ground, and led the two eunuchs into the middle stable with the three wolf dogs in their arms.

Seeing the opportunity, Luo Ping came to the cage, smeared a lot of arsenic on the sauced beef, knelt down and threw it to the mad wolf dog.

The dog smelled the meat, struggled a few times and raised his head, put his nose on the sauced beef and sniffed it, then looked at Luoping.

Luo Ping stretched out his hand to caress its neck. The dog's eyes were blurry, and he was unconscious. His saliva dripped to the ground, and his barking sound was low but full of threats.

Luo Ping quickly withdrew his hand, and pushed the sauced beef towards its mouth: "Hey, eat."

The dog opened his mouth and put the sauced beef into his mouth, tore it and ate it.

At this time Luo Ping was suddenly pulled away by a strong force: "Bold slave, what are you doing!"

Hearing the prestige, it turned out that the sixth prince came out with his men and dogs.

Luo Ping saluted: "Luo Ping sees His Highness the Sixth Highness. This dog is insane, and it may be a disaster to stay in the palace."

Zhou Yang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "Who said this dog is sick? This is a good dog I just brought back from my third brother's house. I saw that my seventh brother is not in a good mood recently, so I want to give him one. Dog relieves boredom, what's the matter with you?"

Luo Ping said seriously: "Your Highness, absolutely not, this dog will kill people with one bite."

"Hmph, did you say that if you are sick, you will be sick? This hall will say that he is good!"

"Your Highness, knowing that this is a mad dog, you still want to give it to His Highness Seventh. Are you going to harm him?"

"you!"

Being told what was on his mind, Zhou Yang was furious, and at the same time, he was a little scared. Does this Luo Ping know something?Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly saw the mad dog barking loudly a few times, then foaming at the mouth, convulsing and dying.

Seeing the sauced beef left in the cage, and looking at the stains on Luo Ping's hands, he panicked—this man poisoned the dog to death, he must know everything!

Zhou Yang was distracted, his head was dazed, he untied the dog leash in his hand, pointed at Luo Ping and shouted: "You slave is really presumptuous, how dare you kill the dog in this hall!"

Those wolfhounds were all trained, and when they saw the command from their master, they rushed up and attacked Luoping.

Luo Ping couldn't dodge in time and was thrown to the ground.The clothes were torn to shreds in an instant, and there were several wounds on his body, and bright red blood oozed out.

Seeing that he was covered in blood, Zhou Yang panicked even more, and was stunned for a moment.

Fortunately, when a whistle sounded, the dogs immediately left Luoping and ran back to the whistleblower.

With a blank face, Zhou Yang stammered, "Third, third brother! He...I...what should I do!"

Zhou Pu angrily scolded: "What should I do! Save people! Do you know who he is! He is now a big celebrity next to the father! If you offend anyone, you must offend him!"

Luo Ping heard their brothers quarreling, and slowly moved the arm protecting his head, touching the wounds all over his body, and suddenly felt a sharp pain.

"Well……"

He slowly got up from the ground, with bloodstains on his face, but as if he didn't care, he said respectfully: "It's okay, it's just a few dogs going crazy, it has nothing to do with the two princes."

Hearing what he said, Zhou Yang calmed down a little.Zhou Pu had already ordered someone to invite the imperial physician, he didn't want to make a big fuss, but now that Luo Ping is so knowledgeable, it saved him a lot of trouble.

"Lord Luo, what happened today is all a misunderstanding. The most important thing right now is to heal you as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Third Highness."

After Luo Ping finished speaking, he had already fallen down, and Zhou Pu hurried forward to help him.

He was surprised to find that a pool of blood had gathered where this person was standing, and there were several deep canine tooth marks on his thin chest, which could be vaguely seen in the torn clothes.

He, a martial arts practitioner, felt pain when he saw it, but this frail and thin man didn't even yell, and he still insisted on talking to them.The group of dogs biting, I didn't see how panicked and afraid this man was, only when he was lifted up, he felt a slight trembling.

Zhou Pu was shocked, this man is shrewd and forbearing but also knows how to advance and retreat, no wonder he is said to have won the trust of his father, he was even promoted yesterday, he is the most popular among the newly promoted officials.If he can be brought under his command, it must be a lot of help.

At this moment, Luo Ping was so painful that he was about to faint, but his mind was very clear.

He thought a little amusedly, he wouldn't just die like this, wouldn't he be thrown into the endless hell by the Grand Judge.

In front of his eyes was the clear blue sky, as if a god was looking down on him.

The guard blocked the emperor's punishment for him, and he blocked this disaster for Zhou Tang...

Probably in the dark, there really is karma.
