The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 172

[Chapter 172 Complaint]

Two days later, it was a holiday, and Sun Zhi had someone prepare a sedan chair to enter the palace early in the morning.

Sun Zhi arrived at the palace gate, got off the sedan chair, took out the token, and after checking it with the palace gate guard, he was taken to the emperor’s bedroom by a eunuch.

Because today was a holiday, there was no need to attend court, and ordinary ministers usually went directly to the bedroom to ask for an audience.

“Eunuch, please inform him!”

Sun Zhi quietly handed over a silver note. The eunuch who led the way took the silver note, nodded, and went in to say something to Shun Gonggong inside.

This eunuch who passed the message usually needs to be arranged. If you are not a minister of the Prime Minister or the Three Departments, it is difficult to see the emperor. After all, whether to help you pass the message is something he can control.

“Your Majesty, Sun Zhi, the Earl of Sun Zhi, wants to see you!”

Shun Gonggong heard the little eunuch say that someone was waiting outside, so he spoke to the emperor.

“Huh?”

The emperor thought about who this Sun Zhi was, and then asked in confusion.

“What does Sun Zhi have to ask for an audience in person? I haven’t seen him write a memorial!”

“Your Majesty, what could be urgent?”

Eunuch Shun reminded from the side.

“Little Shunzi, how do you know he has something to do? Never mind, let him in and see what he wants!”

The emperor glanced at Little Shunzi and said with a bow.

Little Shunzi also suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he had to bow his head and go out to let Sun Zhi in.

“Eunuch Shun, how are you?” Sun Zhi

greeted Eunuch Shun when he saw him come out.

“Well, please come in, the emperor lets you in.”

After saying that, Little Shunzi opened the door and took Sun Zhi in.

“Your humble servant greets the emperor. Long live the emperor!”

After Sun Zhi entered the inner room, he knelt down and saluted the emperor.

“Stand up!”

The emperor put down the book in his hand, glanced at Sun Zhi, and said slowly.

“Sun Qing, what do you want to talk to me about!” “Your Majesty,

I have something important to report. This.”

Sun Zhi looked around, as if someone was there and he couldn’t talk about his things.

Seeing him like this, the emperor thought that something was wrong, so he signaled Xiao Shunzi to dismiss the attendants. Shun Gonggong waved his hand to signal the servants to leave, and he also went out, closed the door, and stood at the door waiting.

“Tell me, what’s the matter!”

“Your Majesty, I found out that someone used your imperial seal and imitated your handwriting to use it as a signboard for himself!”

Sun Zhi said softly, afraid that others would hear it.

“Oh, who dared to steal my handwriting and seal?”

The emperor was also very confused. Ordinary people could not get his handwriting, and who would dare to be so bold!

“I suspect that it was someone around you, and he also used your name to send a plaque!”

Sun Zhi paused for a moment, glanced outside the door, and continued.

“This person is none other than the young master of the Lin family who has just arrived in the capital, Lin Tian!”

“Oh, how do you know something that I don’t even know?”

When the emperor heard Lin Tian’s name, he understood instantly. It turned out that he was talking about Lin Tian.

He wanted to know what Sun Zhi’s intention was in suddenly mentioning Lin Tian.

“My son Sun Qi saw someone using the emperor’s name, so he went to expose it, but he met Eunuch Shun.”

Sun Zhi suddenly burst into tears and cried.

“That Lin Tian was very arrogant. He directly broke my son’s hand. My poor son was preparing to take the imperial examination this year… Now his hand is broken, what should I do?”

Sun Zhi said, and then he knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

“Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!”

The emperor continued to ask in a leisurely manner.

“There is such a thing, so how do you think I should deal with it?”

“I think your majesty should put that Lin Tian…”

Sun Zhi said, and suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

How can I teach the emperor to do things! ?

He really went too smoothly, and now he is a little too proud of himself, so he forgot to restrain himself.

So he paused again, changed his voice, and continued.

“I beg your majesty to deal with it impartially and give my son justice!”

Sun Zhi said, and kowtowed again.

“Well, I understand. Is there anything else? I have to review the memorials. If you have nothing else, please leave!”

The emperor ignored him and turned to sit at the desk to read the memorials.

“By the way, let Xiao Shunzi take you to see my imperial physician and go back with you to see your son’s hand!”

The emperor also knew that the Sun family only had this one child.

The Sun family also made a lot of contributions to the imperial family in the past. If they can save him, they should save him, so as not to disappoint the old minister.

“Thank you for your grace, I’ll take my leave!”

Sun Zhi was very grateful when he heard that the emperor still remembered his son’s injury and that he was the emperor’s personal imperial physician. He might be able to cure

it. Seeing that the emperor was busy with state affairs, he dared not disturb him and had to take his leave.

Anyway, the emperor would definitely investigate after he had said the matter.

“Xiao Shunzi, send Sun Bojue off for me, and let my imperial physician go to see his son.”

The emperor shouted to the outside of the door.

“Hey!”

Xiao Shunzi answered after hearing it, and then opened the door and sent Sun Zhi out.

“Sun Bojue, please!”

“Thank you, eunuch Shun!”

Sun Zhi went home, and the imperial physician came later. After seeing it, the imperial physician said that Sun Qi’s hand could be cured.

But now that it has been cured, there will be some sequelae, that is, he will have no strength from time to time, but writing is still not a problem.

Sun Zhi felt relieved after hearing this. If he could write, he could take the imperial examination, and there was still hope.

After all, the Sun family can still be saved! With his son’s ability, he will definitely be able to pass the imperial examination.

Sun Zhi sent the imperial physician out and wanted to give him a banknote, but the imperial physician refused.

“Sir Sun, a doctor should save the world, and I am working for the emperor. You should keep the money!”

After the imperial physician finished speaking, he took the medicine box and got on the carriage and left.

Sun Zhi didn’t say much. When he returned to the mansion, the gray-clothed servant came in and asked.

“Sir, what is the emperor’s attitude?”

“I think the emperor doesn’t seem to care much, but he did call the imperial physician to help my son with his illness. There shouldn’t be any big problems.”

“Master, to be on the safe side, I think we can add more fuel to the fire!”

said the gray-clothed servant.

“Oh, how do you add it?”

Sun Zhi hoped that Lin Tian would be finished as soon as possible, so that he could vent his anger and get the hot pot restaurant over.

“Master, don’t you have someone else in the palace? You can mobilize him. If this is successful, the benefits will be far more than what we see now!”

“Oh, you mean the one in the harem?”

Sun Zhi asked with some doubt. He had spent a lot of money to plant that person in the palace. He couldn’t use him easily unless it was absolutely necessary, and that person would only help him once.

“Yes, master, pillow talk is the most useful, and now is the best time!”

The gray-clothed servant said softly.

Sun Zhi thought for a while, knocked on the table, and said as if he had made up his mind.

“I will write a letter, and you find a way to send it to the palace today!”
