Chapter 465 The storm is about to arise
Duke Zhao's Mansion.
After Changsun Chong was carried back in a chariot by the palace guards, he was placed back in his room. Changsun Wuji had already invited an imperial doctor from the palace to treat him immediately. Whip injuries are very troublesome. Although they generally do not damage bones, the damage to muscles and tendons is extremely obvious. If you are not careful, you may be permanently disabled.
Seeing his son's injuries, Changsun Wuji was shocked: "Why is the injury so serious?"
Changsun Chong was in pain and embarrassed, and said angrily: "The execution guard was talking and laughing with the Fang family. From my child's point of view, he must have colluded with the Fang family and deliberately framed me. Otherwise, even if His Majesty punishes me, , where is the need to beat him so hard?”
But he didn't understand that it was precisely because he was so proud that he kept silent, so he tried harder and harder. Otherwise, how could he explain to the emperor?
Changsun Wuji was furious!
"It's really lawless. Under His Majesty's eyes, they actually dare to do such a crazy act. What do they want to do? Chong'er, please take good care of yourself. There is no need to be angry. As a father, I will make the decision for you. I will never spare the prison guard who is responsible for the punishment. ! ”
Changsun Chong quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why he wanted the guard to die was not just because he was whipped too hard, but because the guard discovered that he was incontinent...
As long as the guard is alive, there is a chance that he will spread the word. By then, his eldest son, Sun Chong, will not be alive either...
The guard who was in charge of the punishment was still very measured. Although he had a lot of strength and wanted to make Changsun scream a few times, his muscles and bones were not injured. It was just that the injuries were frightening when he saw the flesh was torn apart. The imperial doctor invited by the palace had no problem treating such a small injury. He simply cleaned the injury, applied medicine, and then prescribed a prescription for nourishing blood and qi, and then left.
Changsun Wuji had no choice but to ask the housekeeper to give someone a little thought...
After the imperial doctor and servants all left, Changsun Wuji sat in front of the couch, looked at the deserted room, and sighed: "Li Zhi still refuses to come back?"
Changsun Chong's face froze and he was speechless.
"It's not a problem to always be like this. There is no woman in the room, and she is not popular at all. Since Li Zhi is acting petty, you should at least try to persuade her. Although men are superior to women, Li Zhi is a princess after all, let alone Your cousin, there is nothing shameful in being humble." Changsun Wuji reluctantly advised.
Changsun Wuji liked Princess Li Lizhi of Changle very much.
He is virtuous and intelligent, but not blindly opinionated. He is very knowledgeable about some political affairs. No one knows his son better than his father. Although Changsun Wuji dotes on his eldest son, he is also well aware of Changsun Chong's shortcomings.
This child is too smooth and has never encountered setbacks, which inevitably leads to the problem of pride and arrogance. On this point, Li Lizhi often politely advises him, which is good.
But after all, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Changsun Wuji also knows that even the emperor cannot let his children live completely according to his own settings. When children grow up, they will always have their own ideas, and they can only be dissuaded.
After thinking about it, Changsun Wuji said: "Lizhi has been married to you for many years, but has never had any children. This is a worry in my father's heart. A few days ago, I thought about begging your majesty to let you take a concubine, but... There has never been a chance. Looking at it now, there is no time to delay. Tomorrow, I will be a father. If you go to the palace to express your love to His Majesty, even if you are scolded by His Majesty, you don't have to worry about it. However, you have to remember as a father that taking concubines is just to carry on the family line. If you do something like neglecting a beautiful woman, you don't need to be punished by Your Majesty. I won’t spare you the first one!”
Changsun Chong looked stiff and said calmly: "Well... although the child and Li Zhi often quarreled and argued, their relationship has never changed. Let's forget about taking a concubine? After all, this matter is not good-looking for Li Zhi."
"You don't need to say anything more about this matter. My father has already thought about it for a long time." Changsun Wuji waved his hand and interrupted Changsun Chong: "It's a big deal to carry on the family line. You can understand it even if you think about it, so be it. You are well-educated. The father will take care of things. However, you, the admiral of the Shenji Battalion, rely on you. Father, why don't you hand it over. Your strength lies in confidential documents. The army is too rough, which is too much for you. You don't have to think about face-saving things. Use your strengths and avoid weaknesses. That's what a wise man does. It is foolish to compete in something you are not good at! ”
"No!" Changsun Chong said with a ferocious look on his face: "My child will never give way to the Shenji camp! Everyone in the world says that my child is not as good as Fang Jun, and my child refuses to accept it! Previously, my child just lost because he had no experience. It is his first time to control an army, so he will inevitably care about one thing and not the other. This is not thoughtful. Over a period of time, my son has gradually figured out the ways. How can I hand over the Shenji Camp so easily? I must run the Shenji Camp well and let outsiders see that my eldest son, Sun Chong, is better than others in every aspect. Junqiang! ”
Changsun Wuji looked helpless.
It is a good thing to have ambition and not give up easily. But if you don’t hit the wall and don’t look back, that would be worrying...
But it doesn’t matter. Isn’t this still me?
Even if something goes wrong with his son, with him here, he can completely protect his son from the wind and rain. Is that young man not frivolous? Who didn't do something stupid when they were young? As long as you practice enough, you will naturally become enlightened, and then you will be able to take on big responsibilities.
"Okay, it's up to you! I'm a little tired as a father, so you can rest and think about how to rectify the Shenji Camp."
After saying this, Changsun Wuji put his hands behind his back and left.
In the room, Changsun Chong's face was ashen!
Changsun Chong felt as if his heart was being pricked by a needle when he thought of the words his father had just mentioned about his heir!
A wave of resentment rises uncontrollably!
Li Chengqian!
It's all your fault...
You are already ashamed of me. Just now in front of His Majesty, you did not favor me but wanted to fight fifty points each with Xini. It is simply unreasonable!
That deep resentment made Changsun Chong's eyes turn red, and a crazy idea arose in his heart!
"Chang Sun Bao!"
Changsun Chong shouted, and a young man walked in immediately outside the door, crossing his hands and saying: "Dalang, what's the matter?"
This young man is in his thirties, with a fair face and no beard. He is dressed in a blue shirt and looks quite elegant and elegant.
Changsun Bao is a branch of Changsun's family. His family is in decline. He has always taken shelter in Changsun Wuji's house. He watched Changsun Chong grow up and was very loyal.
Changsun Chong said in a deep voice: "Come here with your ears!"
When Changsun Bao came closer and leaned down, Changsun Chong leaned over and whispered in a low voice.
After hearing this, Changsun Bao was stunned for a long time, and said urgently in a low voice: "Da Lang, think twice! This matter involves a huge amount. Once the news leaks out, it will be a huge disaster! Besides, the head of the family will definitely not agree to this..."< br>
"Shut up!" Zhangsun Chongli shouted, but the injury on his hip was affected. He gritted his teeth in pain and sucked in air-conditioning. "If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. Who knows? Arrange someone close to you to handle this matter. Then someone will give you a sum of money, fly away, hide your name, and live happily. Wouldn't it be much better to spend the rest of your life as a slave in the house? If you haven't married yet, you can give your descendants a good background when you get married and have children in the future. If you stay in the eldest grandson's family and be a slave for generations, you will always have a low status. , are you willing?”
Changsun Bao was silent.
This last sentence struck a chord with Changsun Bao.
He was very intelligent, and he knew all the Four Books and Five Classics from hundreds of schools of thought. Changsun Wuji once said more than once that if he were born into an ordinary family, he would be recommended by the village elders to gain fame.
It's a pity that he is a cheap person...
The Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System divides people into different levels from birth. If you are a lowly person, you will always be a lowly person. Even if you have extraordinary abilities, you will still be a lowly person!
A person with a lowly status has no land or land. He can only live dependent on his master's family. He cannot be an official or become an official. He will always be a lowly citizen for the rest of his life!
He has passed the age and is still alone. Why?
It's not just that he looks down on those bitch women who were born as slaves, but the daughters of good families look down on him! He doesn't want to settle for the rest of his life, so he remains single!
Maybe... we really should give it a try?
Although the stakes are huge, the benefits are too generous!
Even if you don't think about yourself, shouldn't you fight for a future for your descendants? !
Gritting his teeth, Changsun Bao said in a deep voice: "Just follow Dalang's orders!"
After a pause, he said emotionally: "I have been taken in by my master since I was a child. I have no repayment for my deep love and kindness! I will go out this time so as not to bring danger to Da Lang. I don't plan to come back. From now on, I can't be by Da Lang's side." Waiting, I hope you will take good care of me! The master’s kindness in raising me will be repaid in the next life.”
Changsun Chong held his hand and said with emotion: "I can't bear to leave you... But this matter is of great importance. How can I rest assured if it is left to others? After the matter is completed, I will send someone to give you a huge sum of money. God The higher ground is far away, let’s try a new way of living!”
"If Changsun Bao is shattered into pieces, he will definitely live up to Da Lang's trust!"
Changsun Bao knelt down and kowtowed, with tears in his eyes, he turned and left.
Changsun Chong lay on the couch and clenched his fists fiercely... (End of chapter)
