Film and TV: People in Joy of Life become stronger by reading

Chapter 24 Everyone is shocked, a sleepless night!
Zuixianju is a top-notch entertainment venue, often visited by dignitaries in the city.

Such a big thing happened and the news quickly spread throughout Kyoto.

Guo Mansion.

Guo Youzhi and his wife had just finished their conversation and lay down to rest when suddenly there was a hurried knock on the door.

"Why are you knocking? I'm already asleep. We can talk tomorrow if you have anything to say!"

Guo Youzhi said impatiently.

"Master, please come out quickly, the young master...he's in trouble!"

The butler's voice was trembling and panic-stricken.

Guo Youzhi frowned, realizing something was wrong, got out of bed, picked up his clothes and put them on, then hurriedly opened the door.

"Where is he? Take me there!" Guo Youzhi urged.

The butler did not dare to say much. He suppressed his inner panic and walked in front, leading Guo Youzhi to the hall.

Guo Youzhi glanced at the scene and found that the furnishings in the house remained the same, and there was no sign of Guo Baokun at all.

Just as they were wondering, several servants came into the house carrying a stretcher.

The candlelight was cool, and when Guo Youzhi saw the person on the stretcher clearly, he felt a rush of blood to his heart and staggered backwards.

Fortunately, the servants on both sides reacted quickly and stepped forward to help the man in time.

After drinking two cups of tea, Guo Youzhi's surging blood and qi gradually calmed down.

With the help of the servant, he walked forward cautiously, looked at Guo Baokun who was covered in blood, and carefully put his finger in front of his nostrils.

Feeling the faint breath, a glimmer of hope ignited in Guo Youzhi's dead heart.

"Send someone to find a doctor quickly, and make sure to find the best doctor in the city!" Guo Youzhi said.

The butler turned and left in a hurry.

Guo Youzhi ordered people to carry Guo Baokun in, and then called over several servants who were responsible for sending Guo Baokun back.

After understanding the situation, his face instantly turned gloomy.

"How dare you hurt my son!"

Guo Youzhi's eyes were filled with rage.

At this moment, the servant stepped forward, bowed, and took out a letter from his arms.

"Minister Guo, our steward asked me to give this to you."

Guo Youzhi opened the letter with a gloomy face.

What was written inside was not an apology or anything like that, but a poem.

When Guo Youzhi saw the first sentence of this poem, he was deeply attracted.

Soon, the entire poem was read, but Guo Youzhi's anger did not dissipate at all.

"Humph! What do you mean by that? You think I can keep quiet just by reading this poem? Don't dream on!"

Guo Youzhi said angrily.

Guo Baokun is the only son of the Guo family. Even he is reluctant to beat or scold him on normal days. Now that he has been injured like this, who knows if there will be any sequelae.

"Master Guo, anger cannot solve the problem. Think about it carefully. Who in Kyoto can write such a masterpiece of poetry?"

After saying this, the servant bowed deeply and left with the rest of his companions.

The voice echoed in his ears, and Guo Youzhi quickly calmed down and picked up the poem again.

After reading it carefully, a name came to my mind.

"Could it be His Royal Highness Prince Wen?"

Thinking of this, Guo Youzhi broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly sent his servants out to investigate.

Now that the news had spread throughout Kyoto City, it was not difficult to investigate. Within a few minutes, the servant hurried back with the news.

"Master, after much inquiry, I found out that the white-haired swordsman who injured you was from Prince Wen's Mansion."

"According to people familiar with the matter, the young master had a conflict with a young man on the bank of the Liujing River. This man looked very similar to His Royal Highness Prince Wen."

Upon hearing the news, Guo Youzhi felt like the sky was falling and he wished he could strangle Guo Baokun to death.

Things are urgent now and there is no time to think too much.

Guo Youzhi immediately changed his clothes and rushed to the palace. He had to apologize to Emperor Qing before anyone else, so that he could save his son and the only bloodline of the Guo family.

……

The Second Prince's Mansion.

It was late at night and Li Chengze was sleeping soundly on his side in bed when he was suddenly awakened by a hurried knock on the door.

"Your Highness is in trouble. Just now, Guo Baokun and the Third Prince had a conflict in Zuixianju."

"The people he brought with him were all killed by the swordsmen under the Third Prince, including the constables of the Kyoto prefect!"

Xie Bian said.

Hearing such exciting news, Li Chengze instantly became excited.

"Haha, the third brother is really good at making a splash. As far as I know, Guo Baokun is a member of the prince's party. It looks like there will be something interesting to watch tonight!"

"Bi'an, prepare the carriage. I need to go to the palace to see the emperor now!"

"Your Highness, I want to see how you end this time, hahahaha!"

Some are happy and some are sad.

East Palace.

Li Chengqian was sleeping soundly while holding the palace maid, when suddenly a hurried voice was heard outside the palace.

"Your Highness, something big has happened!"

"Guo Baokun led the Kyoto prefect's detectives to arrest the Third Prince, but they were all killed by the Third Prince's guards!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian instantly lost his sleepiness. He had just put on his clothes and got up from the bed when eunuch Hou also arrived with his men.

"Your Highness, you are up just in time. His Majesty has ordered you to go to the Imperial Study now."

Hearing Eunuch Hou's cold tone, Li Chengqian knew that Emperor Qing had already known about the matter.

Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to go.

Guangxin Palace.

Li Yunrui was sitting on the bed in a white robe. After listening to the palace maid's report, her red lips curled up slightly.

"The third brother looks gentle and polite on weekdays, but I didn't expect his subordinates to do such crazy things."

Li Yunrui muttered, then asked, "Such a big thing has happened, where are the three old men now?"

"This... to answer the princess, the third prince is now resting in Zuixianju." The maid whispered.

"Haha, this guy knows a lot at such a young age. I think I need to spend more time with him when I have time."

Li Yunrui's eyes flickered slightly, and his slender fingers brushed across the curvy figure. No one knew what he was planning in his mind.

……

now.

The current Kyoto prefect Mei Zhili was awakened by his subordinates. When he learned that Guo Baokun led Captain Zhao and others to capture the third prince, he was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

When he learned that these people were dead, he felt relieved.

"Good riddance, good riddance! These bastards, who have been trying to curry favor with their superiors all day, deserve this!"

Mei Zhili cursed and muttered a few words, put on his clothes, and called his sleeping wife and daughter to come.

"I am going to the palace to see the emperor now. You should pack your clothes and leave Kyoto immediately. The farther you go, the better."

After saying this, without waiting for his wife and daughter to ask any questions, he just rudely drove the person away.

Mei Zhili sat quietly in the house for a while, then stood up and walked to the room where ancestors were worshipped, lit incense sticks, and kowtowed several times respectfully towards the spirit tablet above.

"Ancestors, may everything go smoothly for me this time."

After saying this, Mei Zhili got on a carriage and hurried straight to the palace.

Overnight.

The originally quiet city of Kyoto was in complete turmoil, and officials from all departments stayed awake all night.

No one expected that Guo Baokun would be so bold as to attack the third prince.

What is even more unexpected is that the third prince, who is usually gentle and reclusive, can be so ruthless!
