Chapter Twenty-Eight: This Is Slander!
Before this incident, Li Xin and Pingnanhou had never been in direct contact with the Pingnanhou Mansion, and at best they could only be regarded as indirect contact, but this time, it was the first time that Li Xin collided head-on with the Pingnanhou, and with his meager strength, he won the battle skillfully.
The price was a cut in his head.
But this is all inconsequential, if it is an ordinary person in Li Xin's position, let alone being injured, even if he is dead, he may not be able to shake it to the Pingnan Hou Mansion, Li Xin can do this, it is already commendable.
But what Li Xin can do, that's all, he can only start this matter, how to develop in the future, and what the result is, are not something that he can control, if Li Xin doesn't go through the Seventh Prince's side, he doesn't even have the qualifications to know the result.
After resting in the room for a night, the pain in Li Xin's forehead had slowly eased, and due to excessive blood loss, his mind was slightly dizzy, and he lay on the bed too lazy to move.
Although the charcoal girl can't make any decent meals, but the simple rice porridge can still be made, the little girl was busy in the kitchen early in the morning, and served a bowl of thick rice porridge to the charcoal seller and Li Xin.
Li Xin reluctantly sat up from the bed, holding the rice porridge in both hands and drank it, and he was only halfway through it when he heard a knock at the door of the courtyard.
Li Xin stopped drinking porridge and whispered to the charcoal girl squatting beside his bed: "Go and see, if you have come to our house, open the door for him to let him in, if you have not come, don't open the door, come back and tell me." ”
Judging from the current situation, no matter who is in the capital, they don't dare to attack themselves for a while, but there are always accidents in everything, so Li Xin still has a heart and asks the little girl to help pay attention.
At present, several people who are relatively friendly with Li Xin, Seventh Prince, Zhou Cheng, Sun Jing and others, have all come to this small courtyard, and the little girls also recognize them, so there is naturally no problem for these people to come, but if someone else comes, Li Xin will get out of bed and deal with it personally.
The little girl nodded, and then ran out, she looked through the crack in the door with one eye, and found that the person at the door recognized herself, so she tiptoed to open the deadbolt and let the person at the door in.
After the man at the door came in, he closed the door casually, smiled and said to the charcoal seller, "Where is your brother?" ”
The charcoal girl looked up at the man, and then whispered, "Brother, he'...... It's hurt, and he's recuperating in the house. ”
The person who came nodded, followed the little girl into Li Xin's room, Li Xin had already lay back on the bed at this time, and after sneaking a look at who the person was, he supported himself with both hands and sat up.
After sitting up, Li Xin smiled reluctantly at the visitor: "Why did the Seventh Prince come in person?" ”
Just two days ago, the seventh prince also said in person that it was inconvenient for him to contact Li Xin again, and just two days later, this seventh prince with a mysterious origin actually came to the door in person.
The seventh prince, who was dressed in cyan clothes, found a stool in the room and sat down, he first looked up at the injury on Li Xin's head, and then replied indifferently: "The people in the internal guard prison have withdrawn, and now the people sent by the palace to protect you are the elite of the Tianmu Prison, and this son still has some connections in the Tianmu Prison, so I am not afraid that they will go to His Majesty to complain." ”
Li Xin has heard of the name Tianmu Prison for the first time, but although he doesn't know what this Tianmu Prison does, he can guess a rough idea by listening to the name, it should be an institution that acts as the eyes and ears of the Son of Heaven.
This seventh prince obviously has his own power in Tianmu Prison, so it is not so unusual that his original big-character poster can be successfully delivered to the Son of Heaven.
Being able to bury his own power in the institution directly under the Son of Heaven, the ability of this seventh prince has risen to a new level in Li Xinxin.
The Seventh Prince sat down, put his hands into his sleeves, and whispered to Li Xin: "The injury on your head, is it okay?" ”
Li Xin shook his head: "The injury is not serious, and it will not be a big deal to rest for a few days." ”
The seventh prince glanced at Li Xin with a smile, and said softly: "The little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, but you were miserable, he knelt at the palace gate last night for most of the night, and it was not until the third watch that His Majesty saw him, and at that time, the little marquis was almost frozen to death. ”
In the cold winter, it is possible to freeze people to death, even if they stay at home on weekdays, it is unbearable, not to mention kneeling at the empty palace gate, last night, the strong and strong little marquis of Pingnan Hou Mansion almost couldn't stand it, and almost fell at the gate of the palace gate.
When Li Xin heard this, his heart was a little happier, he put down the porridge bowl in his hand, and said, "Then what?" ”
Letting Li Chun punish him for kneeling is just that the Son of Heaven wants to put on a show, since this matter has come out, and the Son of Heaven has also asked about it, there will inevitably be a result of this matter, and this is what Li Xin asked.
The smile on the face of the Seventh Prince froze, he shook his head, and said softly: "The Pingnan Hou Mansion is a taboo in this matter, this matter is placed in any powerful family in the capital, it may attract the thunder and wrath of His Majesty, but the Pingnan Hou Mansion will not. ”
Li Xin picked up the porridge bowl next to him and lowered his head to take a sip.
"I've thought of that."
The Seventh Prince said softly: "This morning, Li Chun was whipped forty times by His Majesty, driven out of the palace, and ordered him to be grounded for half a year, and not allowed to step out of the Pingnan Hou Mansion for half a year. ”
Speaking of which, the Seventh Prince did not continue to speak.
Li Xin frowned slightly: "That's all?" ”
"That's all."
The seventh prince nodded affirmatively, and then continued: "Although the Pingnan Hou Mansion has done something wrong in this matter, they have remedied it very well, and it can only end here, but if the Pingnan Hou Mansion is sensible, it should be on the way to visit you at this time, and eighty percent will pay you a compensation." ”
Speaking of this, the Seventh Prince narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "When the time comes, that Lady Yu of the Pingnan Hou Mansion may pay a large amount of money for the soup and medicine, and you will not be wronged for this injury." ”
Li Xin lowered his head and said softly: "I am just a weak person who is powerless to resist, and no one has offended, so I was indiscriminately beaten like this by the little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion......"
"Less."
The Seventh Prince unceremoniously interrupted Li Xin's words, looked at him with a smile and said: "According to the story that came out of the palace last night, the little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion burst into tears in front of His Majesty, crying that the injury on your head was caused by yourself......"
"Nonsense!"
Li Xin shook his head without hesitation and vetoed: "In this world, how can anyone beat himself?" The people of Pingnanhou Mansion really don't want to have any face, they have become like this, they can still come up with such a shameless reason to slander themselves and excuse themselves! ”
The seventh prince looked strange, and said with a smile: "The two generals of the Pingnan Hou Mansion also bit to death, and it was your own hand." ”
"The Seventh Prince also said that they are the generals of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, how can what these two people say be true?"
Speaking of this, Li Xin was indignant and clenched his fists fiercely.
"If the people of Pingnanhou Mansion slander you like this again, you will have to write poems and Mingzhi below!"
The Seventh Prince's face became strange.
He naturally knew what Li Xin's so-called poetry was, and he wanted to post big-character posters again......
