Chapter 360 Shengdong
"How is Jiro?"

Li Yuan urged all the way, and after arriving at the Prince of Qin's Mansion, he waved his hand at the people who came to kowtow and went all the way to the backyard.

At this time, the Qin Palace was in a mess. The Qin Princess Gao and his wife Wei, two female relatives of higher rank, were standing outside the door with their children, while the doctors were inside providing treatment.

After seeing Li Yuan coming, Gao and Wei hurriedly paid their respects to Li Yuan. Although Gao was extremely anxious and tears were streaming down her face, she still told him everything about the current situation.

His left leg was broken, his shoulder was bruised and bleeding, and his face was scratched by stones.
After hearing this, Li Yuan was so angry that he couldn't control himself, but he had no place to vent. Finally, he could only say, "Why not? Forget it. You can't stop him. With his temper, no one can stop him from doing things."

After a while, Princess Pingyang, Madam Li, also arrived. After asking about the second brother's injuries, she turned around and comforted the Princess of Qin.

"Don't worry, Erlang has fought in battles for so many years and has weathered many storms. He only has some minor injuries now, and he will be fine."

After a long while, the doctor came out and reported Li Er's condition to Li Yuan in detail.

The most important thing is the leg injury and the old shoulder injury. Both injuries require a long time to recover and cannot be worked casually. In addition, the wound on the face is deep and may leave scars.
Li Yuan listened with a frown on his face. He did not put any more pressure on the doctor but just told him to treat the patient with all his heart.

The doctor naturally assured again and again that he would do his best and would not dare to be negligent.

Li Yuan was still worried, after all, the injured one was his biological son, his legitimate son. He was also his eldest son. Although he was not immediately named the crown prince, he actually preferred the second son.

It's just that he didn't want to hand over power so easily, nor did he want his son to overshadow him just after he became emperor.

After all, he is a founding emperor. He wants to wait for ten or eight years until the world is pacified and he is almost old. Can't he appoint a crown prince by then?

Who would have thought that such a thing would happen again.

All the staff members of the Prince of Qin's Mansion were waiting for news outside the inner residence.

When Li Yuan came out, he saw that the whole group of people were kneeling on the ground. He was furious and said, "As guards, you can't protect the King of Qin from harm. As staff, you can't persuade the King of Qin to take such a dangerous action. Is this the behavior of a minister? Come on, take all of you to the Dali Temple to await trial!"

After listening to Li Yuan's interrogation of them, none of the staff and generals cried out that they were innocent. After all, what Li Yuan said was well-founded, so they were all escorted to the Dali Temple.

Liu Jingde, the Minister of Dali Temple, was from the Hedong Liu family. He had been an official of Li Yuan in his early years. After hearing about this, he was also a little surprised. He also knew that these people were all innocent, but Li Yuan's orders had to be carried out at this time, so he locked them all up in the cell, but instructed the clerks to take good care of them.

Among these people were the staff of the Prince of Qin's palace, Fang Qiao, Du Keming, Xue Shou, Xue Yuanjing and other civil officials and advisers, as well as all the guards and accompanying generals who went hunting with the Prince of Qin or not, including Zhang Jin, Yang Xianguo, Zhai Changsun, Qiu Xinggong and others.

They are all the core team of the Qin Palace.

Li Yuan really didn't want to take this opportunity to launch a major purge to eliminate the power of the King of Qin. He simply had no place to vent his anger, so it was only natural to punish these people.

It doesn't have to be killing them, but at least they should be locked up for a few days to cool down their temper.

And it is only natural for him to lock these people up. After all, you are all the King of Qin's men. If something happens to the King of Qin and I punish you, who can find fault with you?

Li Er woke up in the evening and then fell asleep again.

Li Yuan went to check on him again at noon on the third day. He was no longer in any serious condition and his complexion had improved a lot, though he was still a little pale.

The father and son looked at each other in silence. Li Yuan wanted to scold him severely, but seeing his son's state, he didn't have the heart to do it. In the end, he just left a message, asking him to cultivate himself, and Li Er took the opportunity to plead for mercy to his men.

Although Li Yuan said "take care of yourself", after returning to the palace, he still ordered the officials to go to the Dali Temple and release the man.

So, Fang Du and others were released after being detained for three days.

The first thing everyone did when they came out was to go home to bathe, change their clothes, and then gather at the Prince of Qin's Mansion to visit His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin who was still bedridden.

Li Er saw everyone and smiled, saying, "I have caused trouble for you all. I have made you spend a few days in prison in the Dali Temple. I am sorry for the injustice you have suffered."

When everyone heard this, they all fell to the ground and cried.

Qiu Xinggong, who was known for his bravery in the army, said in a tearful voice, "I'm glad that Your Highness is safe. I am not wronged for waiting for such a small matter. It's all because of my incompetence. If I had followed Your Highness closely that day, this would never have happened. Please admit your guilt."

Li Er said: "We are all real men, why are you crying? I am fine, right? In half a month, I will be able to ride again. By the way, leave the tiger's skin to me. A tiger that can hurt me is the king among tigers."

Seeing that Li Er was in good condition, the staff finally felt relieved and talked to him for a long time. However, Li Er laughed too loudly and pulled his wound. Princess Gao, who had been standing outside the door, rushed in and drove everyone away.

Then she looked at the wound carefully again and almost cried again, which made Li Er feel helpless. He apologized and promised to take good care of his wound before Princess Gao stopped crying.

The storm caused by this incident seemed to pass quickly.

Li Er's health was recovering day by day, and the Tang Dynasty court did not think that this incident would have any far-reaching impact.

In the third year of Wude, war was no longer the most important thing for the Tang Dynasty, because in the past few years, starting from the Li family's uprising in Shu, first annexed Longyou and Liangzhou, and then moved into Guanzhong and seized the Central Plains and Luoyang, a series of wars had consumed a lot of resources.

The people's strength needs to be restored and they need to recuperate.

Therefore, the theme of the third year of Wude was agricultural production. In any era, food is the primary issue.

Li Yuan said that he was quite good at governing the people and managing the government. In addition to ensuring that there were enough garrison troops and mobile forces in various places, he basically invested all his efforts in agricultural production.

The entire court and government offices at all levels were busy with spring ploughing.

When the news of Li Er's injury reached Luoyang, Li Yuanhui didn't take it too seriously. After all, his second brother was also a horse rider for many years. What could a fall do to him? That was a great blessing for Li Erfeng.

Li Yuanhui, who was in Luoyang, had to keep an eye on Liu Xuanji in Hebei to the north. Although the Yan army lost the Battle of Jinyang last year, the losses were not serious, and the casualties might not even be higher than those of the Tang army.

To the north of Luoyang is Hanoi, and further north of Hanoi is Hebei. There are many places to cross the river along the lower reaches of the Yellow River. Li Yuanhui's most important task in Luoyang is to resist Northern Yan.

Secondly, in the direction of Qingzhou, the Yang family is currently ready to make a move and has fought several battles with the Tang army in Xuzhou.

But Li Yuanhui felt that if Yang Kan attacked again, the most likely place would still be the Central Plains.

As for the rest of Xuzhou, it should be a cover-up. What's the point of attacking Xuzhou? Could it be that they want to go south and surrender to Jiangdong?
