Traveling through Du He, Li Chengqian's rebellion begins

The group of people in the lobby on the first floor of Baihua Tower had just finished giving their statements. When they saw Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu coming down, covered in wounds, they all shut their mouths.

After the two men left, they pointed at the backs of Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu and started talking in low voices with excited expressions.

"Did Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu take the wrong medicine today?"

"For just eight courtesans, they dared to attack Du He and Cui Shenji, and even ordered the guards to draw their swords!"

"Du He, the Minister of Works, was carried away covered in blood. Cui Shenji and Wang Jingzhi also had blood at the corners of their mouths!"

"It looks like Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu are going to be in big trouble!"

Conflicts and conflicts often occur in places like Baihua Tower, but most people will stop at a certain point and will not make such a big fuss like today.

Just as these players were whispering, a group of officials suddenly walked in from outside the gate, and the leader was wearing a purple official robe.

When Lai Fu, the security guard of Baihua Tower, saw the face of the visitor, he quickly pushed aside the onlookers and went to greet him.

"Dear guests, please make way."

Lai Fu came up to Sun Fujia and bowed respectfully.

"Lord Sun, the incident happened on the third floor. The young masters involved are temporarily returning home due to injuries."

"County Magistrate Yang and County Magistrate Zhang have already recorded their statements and are now on the third floor helping to treat the injured."

Although Jiang Fu was just a small guard, he often went to the county government and the Dali Temple to report to the authorities, so he remembered all these important figures clearly.

Especially in these two departments that he often deals with, he can basically recognize all the officials, big and small, in them.

Sun Fujia frowned and looked around, then spoke to the middle-aged man behind him.

"Bi Zhengyi, you come and record the statement. I will go up and take a look first!"

As he said this, he took a few people from the Dali Temple, lifted his official robes and walked upstairs.

"As ordered!"

Dali Temple Deputy Minister Bi Zhengyi responded with a serious expression, and then began to interrogate the confession with Dali Temple Direct Marquis Shanye and others.

Although these players were a little unhappy about being interrogated twice in a row, they did not dare to complain in front of the people from the Dali Temple and could only cooperate honestly.

Just as Bi Zhengyi led his officials to interrogate people and finish their confessions, Bi Zhengyi's Sun Fujia, with a livid face, came down from upstairs accompanied by Yang Gan.

Sun Fujia said in a deep voice: "Let's go to the homes of several parties involved to record their statements!"

Those involved in this matter are not ordinary people. Sun Fujia must personally lead people to figure it out, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Just after the people from Dali Temple left Baihua Tower, these players also left and told their relatives and friends about the incident.

As a result, the news of the bloody battle between the two gangs of young masters in Baihua Tower spread quickly in Chang'an City like a whirlwind.

Whether it was the Minister of Works Du He who was covered in blood, or Cui Shenji, Wang Jingzhi and Xiao Kai who had blood at the corners of their mouths, or Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu who had bruised faces and noses.

Every point is worth discussing and has triggered various speculations among the people.

...

East Palace.

Mingde Hall.

When Li Chengqian received the news that Du He and Fang Yiai had a conflict in Baihua Tower and were covered in blood, he immediately became furious.

"Oh!"

Li Chengqian slammed his fist on the table and cursed in anger.

"How dare you, Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu, attack Du He? I think you are courting death!"

"Somebody come!"

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Qin Huaidao, who was guarding outside the hall, rushed in and clasped his fists respectfully.

"Your Highness, what do you want?"

He heard all of the Crown Prince's roar inside from outside the hall door, and he was extremely anxious when he learned that Du He was injured.

But as the commander of the prince's guards, he still has to act stupid sometimes.

Li Chengqian stood up, supported by the table, and gave the order with a frown.

"Huai Dao, get ready. I'm going to Princess Chengyang's mansion to visit Du He!"

"By the way, send someone to the Medicine Bureau to bring the two medicine storekeepers to the Princess's Mansion for Du He to treat!"

The Medicine Bureau is a department under the Zuochunfang of the Eastern Palace. It is in charge of the medicine of the Eastern Palace and specializes in treating the crown prince and his family.

The two Yaozanglang were the chief officers of the Yaozang Bureau, usually imperial doctors of the palace. Their medical skills were not much different from those of the imperial doctors of the palace's Shangyao Bureau.

"As ordered!"

Qin Huaidao responded and then quickly went downstairs to make arrangements.

Half a minute later, Li Chengqian left the East Palace with two medicine storage officers and quickly headed for Princess Chengyang's mansion.

...

At the same time, Sun Fujia, the Minister of the Dali Temple, and Yang Gan, the magistrate of Wannian County, wrote a memorial on the case and submitted it to Li Shimin.

“That makes sense!”

"Absolutely lawless!"

Li Shimin took the memorial written by Sun Fujia and started cursing angrily.

The case was not complicated and was quickly sorted out based on the oral statements of the five parties involved, as well as the confessions of the Baihualou staff and a group of guests.

In particular, the two troublemakers, Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu, confessed to the serious mistakes they had committed, which made the investigation of the case easier.

After cursing for a few words, Li Shimin turned to ask Sun Fujia.

"Sun Fujia, is Du He's injury serious?"

"There are also Cui Shenji, Wang Jingzhi and Xiao Kai. How are their injuries?"

What he is most concerned about now is Du He's injury. If anything happens to that brat, it will definitely cause turmoil in the court in the future.

Given Du He's vengeful character, it is impossible for him to swallow this anger and he will definitely launch a crazy revenge on the Duke of Liang's Mansion and the Duke of Qiao.

And Du He is the person the prince relies on the most, so maybe the prince will come down personally to help.

Thinking that the palms and backs of his hands are all made of flesh, Li Shimin felt an extremely headache at this moment.

Sun Fujia said with a strange expression, "Your Majesty, Minister Du has suffered some serious external and internal injuries. I'm afraid he needs to rest in his mansion for a few days."

"Cui Shenji, Wang Jingzhi, and Xiao Kai all suffered some internal injuries and need to stay in bed to recuperate for a day or two."

When he visited Du He, Du He was lying on the bed with gauze wrapped all over his body.

Except for the strong smell of medicine on Du He's body, his complexion looked very good and he didn't look like he was injured at all.

Although Sun Fujia did not see the specific injuries on Du He's body, he saw that Princess Chengyang's eyes were red and he did not dare to ask anyone to check the injuries.

In addition, before he went to visit Du He, he first went to Liang's Mansion to visit Duke Liang, and Duke Liang also asked him to severely punish Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu.

Therefore, Sun Fujia and Yang Gan did not mediate for them, but quickly submitted the case.

When Li Shimin heard that Du He was seriously injured, his face suddenly changed, and then he raised his voice and spoke.

"what!"

"Du He actually suffered serious internal injuries?"

Seeing Li Shimin's angry face, Sun Fujia and Yang Gan hurriedly lowered their heads and did not dare to look him in the eye.
