016. Yue Peng was beaten
The craftsmen didn't know what the emperor hid in the room to tinker with, but they knew that he had asked for a lot of ceramic jars and leads, etc.
When discussing privately, I only guessed whether the little emperor was tired of playing with crickets and now I want to change my taste.
But today, the topic they are talking about is different, and it is related to Yue Peng.
Zhao Dongting was fiddling with land mines and bombs in the room. He heard the whispers outside and didn't care at first, but when he accidentally heard Yue Peng's name, he became a little concerned. Yue Peng was the one he liked. Although he has been demoted to the head of the guard, he is still his direct line.
Putting down the ceramic jar in his hand, Zhao Dongting opened the door and asked several busy craftsmen outside the door, "What are you talking about?"
Several craftsmen hurriedly fell to the ground and dared not answer.
Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I just want to hear what you are talking about. I seem to hear General Yue's name."
The craftsmen were a little relieved, and a craftsman replied, "Go back to the emperor, let's talk about General Yue's beating."
Yue Peng was beaten?
Zhao Dongting said in surprise: "How could General Yue be beaten?"
Look at me, look at you, and no one dares to speak.
Zhao Dongting waved to the craftsman who had just spoken, "Come in with me."
The craftsman followed Zhao Dongting into the house.
Zhao Dongting was afraid of scaring him and whispered: "General Yue is so good, who was beaten?"
The craftsman replied, "I heard that the villain was beaten up by the guards."
"Is it serious?"
"It seems that I am very injured. I will never get out of bed for a few days, but the villain also heard from the guards in the infantry."
Zhao Dongting couldn't help but be surprised, "How is this possible? Who can match General Yue's kung fu in the guards and infantry?"
He thought to himself, could there be a great master in the guards and infantry that he had not discovered?
Then the craftsman replied: "General Yue was beaten by hundreds of guards."
Zhao Dongting was even more surprised and thought to himself how could this be possible? Yue Peng was also the coach, so how could there be hundreds of guards hit him?
Maybe this craftsman heard the truth and spread rumors.
At this moment, Zhao Dongting stopped asking, let the craftsman go out, and then left the workshop himself and went to the barracks of the guards and infantrymen.
The great master Li Yuanxiu and the maid Ying Er naturally followed him all the time.
When he arrived at the barracks, he asked the guards for clarity about Yue Peng's residence. Zhao Dongting finally met Yue Peng.
Yue Peng was really beaten very hard, his nose was bruised and swollen. He couldn't help but hum softly when he lay on the bed. The smell of medicine was everywhere in the room and there were a lot of blood-stained gauze on the ground.
Zhao Dongting immediately became angry and walked over and asked, "General Yue, how are you?"
Yue Peng still had to hold on to salute, but was held down by Zhao Dongting, "You can lie down honestly like this, what kind of tribute can you do?"
Yue Peng really couldn't get up, so he could only nod at Zhao Dongting apologetically, "The last one is fine..."
"It's okay if you do this?"
Zhao Dongting said angrily: "I heard that you were beaten by hundreds of guards. What's going on?"
Everyone knows that Yue Peng is his person. If you hit Yue Peng, you will be hitting him in the face!
The guards could not have the courage to beat Yue Peng together, because there was something behind this that someone was instructing him.
Yue Peng refused to say it, knowing: "Thank you for your concern, the last general... the last general is really okay."
Zhao Dongting lowered his face, "Tell me, who instructed those guards to beat you!"
Yue Peng hadn't seen Zhao Dongting get angry, so he didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said, "Yes... it's General Su who wants to test the martial arts of the last general."
"Su Quandang?"
Yue Peng was talking about General Su, so naturally Su Quandang was undoubtedly Su Dongting. Zhao Dongting said: "Let hundreds of guards besiege you. Su Quandang is obviously a ruling of you. Is it because you have any holiday with him?"
At this moment, Zhao Dongting was already filled with anger.
Su Quandang got the position of deputy in charge of the guards and infantry as he wished, but he deliberately punished Yue Peng, which was really a petty person.
Yue Peng said a little embarrassedly: "The last general accidentally injured General Su when the entire army met with martial arts."
"So there is still this thing..."
Zhao Dongting nodded slightly, then helped Yue Peng tuck the quilt, and said, "You should take care of your injuries first, I will help you with justice."
When Yue Peng heard this, he said, "Your Majesty, it's just a trivial matter, you really don't need it..."
Zhao Dongting waved his hand to stop him and said, "You are my man, I can't let you be bullied for nothing."
After saying that, he walked outside.
He thought to himself that Su Quandang dared to beat Yue Peng with the excuse of not taking real power in his hands and not taking him as the emperor seriously. This may not be a good opportunity for him to establish his authority.
The next day, Zhao Dongting got up early and took Li Yuanxiu and Ying'er straight to the Political Consultative Hall.
Concubine Yang Shu and the ministers were discussing national affairs. Seeing Zhao Dongting suddenly rushed in angrily, she said in surprise: "Xi'er, what's wrong?"
All civil and military officials saluted Zhao Dongting.
Zhao Dongting did not answer, and took Li Yuanxiu straight to Su Quandang, "Beat him up!"
Without hesitation, Li Yuanxiu raised her legs and kicked Su Quandang to the ground, causing Su Quandang to snort in pain.
All the officials were shocked.
Li Yuanxiu rushed up again and kicked Su Quandang hard.
Su Quandang was also a general. He was familiar with martial arts and naturally fought back. However, his kung fu was still far from Li Yuanxiu, and he could only get beaten.
Su Liuyi saw that his nephew was beaten, but he couldn't stand it. He hurried over and pulled him, "Emperor, Master, why is this?"
There are also officials close to the Su family who also come to stop Li Yuanxiu.
Zhao Dongting shouted coldly: "Who dares to interfere? Let's beat them together!"
Although Li Yuanxiu had a pale face, she glared at this moment and scared away the officials who were about to come and stop him.
Su Quandang was pitiful and was soon beaten to the point of bruising and swelling, and howled in pain, and shouted quickly: "Hello, Queen Mother! Help!"
Concubine Yang felt a little funny, but she was embarrassed to look on, so she said, "Don't stop quickly."
Li Yuanxiu stopped.
Su Quandang was lying on the ground and couldn't get up.
Concubine Yang Shu asked Zhao Dongting, "Why did Xier get so angry at General Su?"
Zhao Dongting looked angry, "Teacher Yue is the person I like, this is something everyone in the court knows. Su Quandang is ungrateful. He ignored my face and encouraged the soldiers to beat Teacher Yue just to vent his personal anger. If I don't teach him a lesson, how could he take me seriously?"
As he said that, he glanced coldly over the officials present, "And you, do you take me seriously?"
This immediately scared the officials of the court and quickly fell to the ground, shouting: "I will definitely not dare to despise the emperor."
"Just know if you don't dare."
Zhao Dongting stood up straight and pointed at Su Quandang on the ground, "If anyone dares to underestimate me, the outcome will definitely be worse than him!"
After saying that, he took Li Yuanxiu directly out of the hall, looking like a playboy, leaving only the ministers stunned.
It seems that although the young emperor's temperament has changed drastically, the child's temper has not changed. You must pay attention to it in the future and never touch his eyebrows.
Little did he know that as soon as Zhao Dongting walked out of the palace, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
This kind of killing the chicken to scare the monkey should always make these ministers think a little bit in their hearts. However, it really made Yue Peng suffer.
He did not go back to the bedroom, and he plunged into the weapons workshop again.
After the morning court dispersed here, Concubine Yang Shu left behind several close ministers and asked, "What do you think is this to do today?"
Of course she knew that Zhao Dongting could not play a childlike temper anymore.
Look at me, I look at you, and finally Lu Xiufu caressed his beard and chuckled, "The Emperor is deliberately erecting his dignity in front of us. Empress Dowager, you do not allow the emperor to rule in power. The emperor will use this method to show everyone his status. Although he does not take power in power, he is still the emperor of the Song Dynasty."
Looking at his eyes, he clearly admired Zhao Dongting's move.
Chen Wenlong said from the side: "Aren't the emperor afraid that the Empress Dowager will be angry?"
Lu Xiufu said: "General Su took revenge and beat Teacher Yue. The emperor's anger was reasonable. The empress dowager was afraid that it would be hard to blame him."
Concubine Yang nodded in approval.
If she used to mistakenly think that Zhao Dongting was a soul occupying the body, she might really get angry. But now she only thinks that Zhao Dongting or Zhao is, how could she get angry?
Of course, he nodded according to Lu Xiufu's words.
The more Lu Xiufu thought about it, the more he felt that Zhao Dongting’s trick was so clever, and he couldn’t help laughing again, “The emperor’s thoughts are so hard that I can’t meet…”
Su Liuyi couldn't help but twitched from the side, "I just feel sorry for my miserable nephew. I'm afraid I can't even get out of bed for many days."
