The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

Empress Changsun shook her head.

"You three, get up, don't kneel on the ground. Your uncle has specifically told me that this matter is over, and I won't punish you." Empress Changsun said gently: "I also know that you feel sad and guilty because Yu Zhining, Du Zhenglun and your uncle were beaten, but in the end, they all hope that you can get better and better, and not go astray when growing up. Now your performance is enough to make me, your father, and the three of them happy."

"If something like this happens, it's abnormal if you don't feel anything in your heart."

"Don't think too much. You know how to study and how to be a person in the future." Empress Changsun said: "Let's stop here, Ke'er."

Empress Changsun looked at Li Ke.

"Your son is here." Li Ke responded.

"Go back to your mother later and tell her what happened today. I guess she is worried about you in the palace, but she is not in a position to interfere in the affairs of the Eastern Palace." Empress Changsun said.

"Yes."

"Okay, let's go. I'll go see your uncle." Empress Changsun said.

Empress Changsun stood up and returned to the side hall where Li Shimin and Li Fu were.

Li Shimin was having someone prepare a carriage to send Li Fu back to the Jingyang Palace according to his wishes.

Seeing Empress Changsun coming, the couple exchanged glances.

Li Shimin didn't know what happened in the Eastern Palace Hall and what Li Fu said to the children, but he couldn't ask Li Fu directly. If so, it would seem that he didn't trust Li Fu's teaching of the children.

So Li Shimin didn't say much in front of Li Fu.

Li Ke returned to Concubine Yang's residence.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai were hesitant, following Empress Changsun.

They said they were going to do their own things, but this was the East Palace, where Li Chengqian lived, and his father and mother were here, so where could the two brothers go?

The eunuch carefully helped Li Fu get off the couch.

Li Fu grimaced in his heart every time he took a step.

"Slow down." Li Shimin warned.

The carriage was waiting outside the side hall, and Li Fu was the first to receive such treatment.

Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun went back by themselves.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai followed Li Fu closely with worried eyes.

Li Fu grinned at the two children.

It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.

After getting on the carriage, Wu Liangye drove the carriage, and the other guards of the palace followed silently. The carriage slowly drove out of the palace.

Until it was out of the palace gate.

Li Fucai began to groan in the carriage.

"Hiss~~"

"It hurts so much."

"Ah, why did you hit me so hard, you stupid fool!"

"Wu Liangye! Where are we? How long will it take to get home?"

"Sir, at this speed, it will take another quarter of an hour." Wu Liangye said, "I have tried my best to make the carriage stable."

"Hurry up and send someone back to tell Lao Zhao to find a doctor to wait in the house." Li Fu said, "Boil the medicine and prepare the medicine."

"Sir, these things are already being done in the mansion. The Queen has sent someone to the mansion and brought the secret medicine from the palace. Please bear with it for a while. I will apply it to you when we get home."

Every shake and bump of the carriage is a great test for Li Fu.

Even if the carriage is padded with a thick mattress.

When a person lies on it, his buttocks will sway with it, and it hurts when it sways.

After a lot of effort, he finally made it home.

The carriage went directly into the yard from the side door of the house.

Wu Liangye jumped off the carriage frame.

He lifted the door curtain.

"My dear, are you okay?" Wu Liangye asked worriedly.

"I'm still breathing." Li Fu bit his back teeth and endured the pain and said, "Are you there?"

"I'm here, I'm home now." Wu Liangye pulled out the horse stool, put it on the ground, stepped on it himself, and went to help Li Fu in the carriage.

Lao Zhao and Xiao Tao learned that Wu Liangye had parked the carriage directly in the side yard, and hurried over to greet him.

Wu Liangye helped Li Fu get off the carriage, and Li Fu grimaced again when he moved.

"My dear, I'll carry you back." Wu Liangye half-squatted and stood in front of Li Fu.

Li Fu waved his hands.

"No, no, I still have to walk back. If you carry me back, won't that be even worse?"

He walked back to his yard trembling.

Xiao Tao hurriedly came to the other side and supported Li Fu with Wu Liangye.

"Oh my God, my dear, how could you suffer this after entering the palace?" Xiao TaoSurprise, anger, and more distressed expression on his face.

"Oh, don't mention it. I ordered myself to be beaten." Li Fu said with pain: "It was necessary to beat myself, otherwise I would offend people."

Being beaten not only did not offend anyone, but also made Yu Zhining and Du Zhenglun convinced, which would also be good for Li Chengqian in the future.

As the prince's uncle and the prince's tutor, he has come to this point, so he can suffer a little.

At worst, he will just lie at home for a few days. Anyway, the New Year is coming soon, and there is nothing important before the New Year. It will definitely be better before the New Year's Day meeting.

As for the gifts before the New Year, everything will be done by Lao Zhao. According to the previous practice, they will be sent to each family in Chang'an City. The gifts to the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion will be sent separately, and the gift list can be read even if you are lying on the bed.

Li Fu entered the room, and Xiao Tao also spread a thick mattress on the kang in advance.

Li Fu struggled to get on the kang and lay on it, then he calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief.

Lao Zhao immediately brought the doctor in, holding the medicine sent from the palace.

"Hurry up and take a look at our young master. Also, this is the medicine sent from the palace. Please take a look and apply it to our young master." Lao Zhao pulled the doctor to Li Fu.

The doctor wanted to check Li Fu's injury. Lao Zhao and Wu Liangye helped Li Fu unbutton his clothes and take off his pants.

Xiao Tao blushed and hurried to the corridor.

After the doctor made a diagnosis, he began to apply medicine to Li Fu.

"Your Excellency is weak and delicate. You were beaten with 20 strokes of the cane. Fortunately, you wore thicker clothes in winter. Otherwise, you would not be beaten like this now." The doctor said while applying the medicine: "Change the medicine once a day and rest for a few days. It should be fine. After all, your muscles and bones are not injured."

"I will prescribe another internal medicine. Take the medicine once in the morning and evening."

"Thank you." Old Zhao nodded in response.

After sending the doctor away, Old Zhao carefully covered Li Fu with a quilt.

"My dear, what happened in the palace? Why did you get beaten like this?" Old Zhao sat on the edge of the kang, looking worried: "We have been in the manor all the time and have not offended His Majesty."
