The Journey of Immortality of the Peerless Medical Concubine
Chapter 44: Deafening Drums
Hearing this, Tang Tianyi was immediately filled with gratitude and hugged Zhao Chuchen in his arms.
He had been through so much that day.
First, Zhao Chuchen was critically ill and suffered for a whole afternoon. Later, his mentality changed and his cultivation level increased dramatically. With the help of Tang Tianyu's teaching, his wife is now fine.
How could Tang Tianyi not be excited?
"Thank you, Fifth Brother!"
After letting go of Zhao Chuchen, Tang Tianyi turned around and bowed to Tang Tianyu.
Today, he had received so much favor from Tang Tianyu, and he performed this gift willingly.
Thinking back to what he had done in the past, Tang Tianyi felt extremely guilty.
Although Tang Tianyu had never cared about it, this matter had become a knot in his heart.
However, Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli did not care about it. As Wen Liuli often said, it was just a piece of cake.
The problem was solved, the sky gradually darkened, and the kitchen had already brought the prepared food to the table.
Today's dishes are really good, including big plate chicken, pork with minced garlic, braised pork trotters, and a pot of sour radish and duck soup.
In addition, the kitchen also fried a few vegetarian dishes, filling the entire table, which made everyone's appetite increase.
Tang Tianyi and Zhao Chuchen hadn't eaten for the whole day and were already very hungry, but they couldn't help but frown when they saw the dishes on the table.
Chicken and duck are fine, but why is there pork on the table? Is this food worthy of being served?
However, since this was in Prince Wu's Palace, the two of them didn't say anything and just sat down obediently.
"Fifth brother, do you usually eat pork?"
Seeing Tang Tianyu pick up a piece of garlic pork and put it into his mouth, Tang Tianyi frowned even deeper.
Is Prince Wu’s Mansion very poor?
But no matter how poor you are, you shouldn't eat pork, right? That thing is so disgusting.
"Yes, Fourth Brother, try it too, it tastes very good."
Tang Tianyu nodded when he heard this. These people were just surprised by what they had never seen before. Tang Tianling and Tang Ling'er were also like this at first.
Isn't it just pork? If it tastes good, I'll eat it! There's no such thing as expensive or cheap meat.
After hearing Tang Tianyu's words, Tang Tianyi and Zhao Chuchen looked at each other and awkwardly followed Tang Tianyu's example to pick up a piece of garlic pork.
He closed his eyes and put it into his mouth.
"Ok?"
The moment the rich garlic aroma entered their mouths, their eyes suddenly widened and they looked at the dishes on the table in disbelief.
Is this pork?
How can it be so delicious?
After just a quick bite, the two of them could never forget the taste and picked up the plate of pork belly frantically.
When Wen Liuli and the other two saw this, they couldn't help but twitch their lips. You two are really rude. If you eat like this, what should we eat?
In a short while, the small plate of garlic pork was finished by the two of them, and even the cucumber shreds at the bottom of the plate were not spared, leaving only a plate with some chili oil hanging on it.
With the start of the garlic pork, the two turned their attention to the big pot of pig's feet. What does it taste like?
After the meal, the whole table of dishes was cleaned up by a few people.
Tang Zhiqian was very dissatisfied at this time. I am still young, how can I eat as fast as you? How long has it been since the fourth uncle and his family had a meal? They even ate my portion.
Helpless, Tang Zhiqian could only lick the chopsticks, feeling like crying but without tears.
It was Wen Liuli who was attentive and noticed this, so she quickly asked the kitchen to make some more, which was enough to fill Tang Zhiqian's stomach.
After this meal, Tang Tianyi also understood why Tang Tianling and Tang Ling'er would go to Prince Wu's Mansion every now and then.
Damn, if it were me, I would come here every day.
This food tastes better than what the imperial chef in the palace prepares.
The next morning, Tang Tianyu and Tang Tianyi went out early. Today was Mid-Autumn Festival, and even Tang Tianyu rarely attended the morning court.
Wen Liuli and Zhao Chuchen dressed up nicely because it was the Mid-Autumn Festival and there was a palace banquet in the palace. All princes, princesses and consorts had to attend, and they were no exception.
Today's morning court was exceptionally quiet. After a few brief discussions on a few major issues, the court was almost over.
After all, it was Mid-Autumn Festival, and who hasn't had a reunion dinner? Considering everyone's eagerness to go home, Tang Zhentian was also very happy to give the civil and military officials a day off.
As for the princes, including Tang Tianmo who had just recovered from a serious injury, they all stayed in the palace, each accompanying their mother to chat and talk about family matters.
The mother of Tang Tianyu and Tang Tianling had passed away, and while they were secretly sad, they went to Shengqian Palace.
I can’t see my mother anymore, but it would be nice to see my grandfather the Emperor.
Tang Zonglun had always liked these two brothers since he was a child. One was extremely intelligent, and the other was gifted. That was why they were called the two kings of literature and martial arts.
The other grandchildren are actually also very outstanding, but compared to these two, they are a little dull.
"Grandson greets Grandpa Emperor!"
"Haha, it's rare for you two brothers to come visit an old guy like me, how about playing a game of hand-to-hand?"
Seeing the two of them, Tang Zongluan smiled slightly, and then ordered someone to bring out the chess board.
Recently, Tang Zongluan has been staying in Shengqian Palace playing chess every day. He has pulled all the living people in the palace to play chess with him. Now he can be said to be invincible in the palace.
Of course, there is also a certain element of leniency from others, such as Tang Zhentian.
Because of this, Tang Zonglun felt bored. What's the point of always winning? Playing chess is just like playing cards. It's fun to win and lose.
And these two brothers will not give in to anyone. Only by playing chess with them can you show your level.
"Haha, Sixth Brother, please accompany Grandpa Emperor. I'll just watch."
"Then it would be disrespectful to refuse it?"
Hearing this, Tang Tianling smiled and said, "I can't beat you in a fight, but I can still defeat you in chess?"
He had played this chess game with Tang Tianyu before. It was extremely profound. However, with Tang Tianling's intelligence, he quickly mastered the tricks. In just over a month, even Tang Tianyu could not beat him.
The two began to play chess. Out of boredom, Tang Tianyu came to the courtyard of Shengqian Palace and started to play with flowers and birds. At this moment, a drum sound that resounded through the sky suddenly spread throughout the imperial city.
Naturally, it also fell into Tang Tianyu's ears.
"Heaven-shaking drum!"
Hearing this voice, Tang Tianyu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Not only Tang Tianyu, but even the two people who were playing chess in the room were stunned.
This drum is a giant drum placed in the east of Donghuang City by the first Donghuang Tang Bingyang. It was not used for war, but only to redress the grievances of the people of the world.
Anyone who encounters a great injustice can strike this drum, and after striking it they can go directly before the emperor, who will administer justice for them.
Of course, beating the thunder drum at will is a serious crime, so the number of times the drum has been struck has been very few since it was placed there.
Upon hearing this voice, Tang Tianyu's great master's divine sense immediately spread out, and he soon sensed the two people beside the Zhentian Drum.
The two men were one old and one weak. The old man looked to be around 80 years old, with a hunched back, as if he could be blown down by the wind at any time.
Next to the old man stood a woman, who was in her early twenties, with a pretty face and clothes that had traces of mending.
"Yu'er, go see what's going on."
"Yes!"
Hearing Tang Zongluan's voice inside the house, Tang Tianyu bowed slightly towards the house, then jumped onto the wall of the imperial palace, and then rushed towards the east of the city.
In addition, Tang Zhentian also heard this voice and couldn't help but frown. How could someone seek justice during the Mid-Autumn Festival?
However, no matter how doubtful you are, the emperor must come out when the thunderous drum sounds. This is a rule set by our ancestors. No matter who the other party is or what their identity is, the emperor must meet anyone who beats the thunderous drum.
So Tang Zhentian, who had just finished the morning court, turned around and walked out of the palace again, heading towards the Dali Temple.
"What is this sound?"
Hearing the deafening drumbeats outside, Wen Liuli frowned. The drumbeats were so loud, and he didn't know where they were coming from. Even Prince Wu's Palace could hear them.
"Heaven-shaking drum, there is injustice!"
Wen Liuli didn't know, but Zhao Chuchen beside her knew it very well and couldn't help but frowned.
"Grudges?"
Hearing this, Wen Liuli was slightly stunned. Isn't this the sound of war?
But after thinking about it, she understood the meaning and couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of the first generation of Donghuang.
"Can we go take a look?"
"Well, of course you can."
Zhao Chuchen nodded. This was also the rule set by Tang Bingyang. In order to ensure that the emperor was fair, after the thunderous drum sounded, everyone in the world could be a witness and everyone could see the trial process of the case.
If ordinary people can see it, how much more can the two princesses see it?
Hearing this, Wen Liuli's eyes lit up. She liked this kind of lively event. So she left as soon as she said she would. Wen Liuli pulled Zhao Chuchen and walked out of the gate of Prince Wu's Mansion.
The Dali Temple is not far from the imperial palace, and it is convenient to go there. I have to go to the palace soon anyway, so I would be a fool if I didn’t go to see the excitement.
On the other side, Tang Tianyu jumped over the palace wall. No one who saw him dared to stop him. Are you kidding? That was His Majesty the King of Martial Arts. Who dared to stop him? Didn't he want to live?
Not to mention climbing over the palace wall, even if he jumped into the imperial study, others would just turn a blind eye.
Walking out of the palace gate, Tang Tianyu put two fingers together and hooked at the palace guard. The long sword that was originally inserted in the guard's scabbard suddenly flew out and went straight towards Tang Tianyu.
Then Tang Tianyu stepped on the long sword, and a long rainbow was drawn in the sky. In less than an incense stick of time, he arrived at the Zhentian Drum.
At this time, the old man and the weak man had been surrounded by officers and soldiers, led by the commander of the Imperial Guards, Wu Che.
"Who are you? Why are you beating the Heaven-shaking Drum?"
When they saw the officers and soldiers, they immediately knelt down, tears streaming from the corners of their eyes uncontrollably.
"Sir, I want to seek justice!"
Without waiting for the young woman to speak, the old lady kowtowed immediately.
When the young woman saw this, she slammed her head to the ground.
"What grievances have you had?"
Wu Che frowned upon hearing this. Who has come here to beat the drum without any grievances? What nonsense!
