Chapter 454 Pervasive
Chapter 454 Pervasive
All these people will stand on Wei Zhongxian's side. There's a saying that goes, "Punishment doesn't have to be given to everyone," which is exactly the point.
But now, the emperor was targeting him, which terrified the traitor. His official robes were soaked with cold sweat.
However, to the Emperor's surprise, Ma Dazhi had already taken the Imperial Guards away, and now those standing outside were mostly people from the Eastern Depot and the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Zhang Shaoqing said, "His Majesty ordered me to strip this traitor of his official robes."
Zhang Shaoqing grabbed the traitor's hair with both hands and slammed his fists against the ground repeatedly.
After knocking the traitor to the point of vomiting blood, Zhang Shaoqing finally became obedient and stripped off his official robes. The emperor just watched him quietly, as if he hadn't seen what had happened.
Those who knelt down were all completely silent, and some of the more timid ones were already terrified.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of feces, which the emperor also inhaled. In an instant, the emperor glared angrily at the people kneeling on the ground.
"I'll say it three times: anyone who kneels on the ground will suffer the same fate as this traitor." After the Emperor finished speaking, he went up and gave the traitor another kick. The traitor, who was already weak, had been knocked unconscious by Zhang Shaoqing, but the Emperor kicked him awake.
Now that's settled, those people who were kneeling on the ground no longer dared to hesitate. Today, they all stumbled and stood up. They weren't stupid; the Emperor was truly furious.
Just then, the door to the room opened, and a frank-faced imperial physician walked out. The physician was startled when he saw the emperor and was about to kneel down to pay his respects, but the emperor stopped him.
"Stop wasting time! Tell me quickly how Chen Er's injuries are? Is his life in danger? I'm telling you imperial physicians, if Chen Er suffers any loss today, I will exterminate your entire family!" the Emperor said angrily.
The cold sweat poured down the imperial physician's forehead. He hesitated for a moment before finally speaking helplessly.
"Your Majesty, Chen Er's injuries are extremely serious, and one of the stab wounds is only one centimeter away from his heart. This cannot continue indefinitely, and we have no choice but to do everything we can to save him," the imperial physician said once again.
However, the emperor kicked him instead: "Let me tell you, if Chen Er is alright today, you will live a life of luxury from now on. But if Chen Er loses even a single hair, I will pay with your whole family's lives. Get inside right now!"
At this moment, the imperial physicians sighed and ran back inside. They didn't know how long they had been inside, but unfortunately, Chen Er's injuries were too serious. Just when the emperor was very uneasy, an imperial physician suddenly ran over.
"Your Majesty, this is terrible! Lord Chen Er has lost too much blood. We must find a suitable blood type to replenish his blood." After the imperial physician finished speaking, the emperor was immediately furious.
"Then what are you all standing there for? Quickly find a blood type that matches Chen Er's. Start by looking within the imperial court. Don't overlook anyone, whether it's the three thousand beauties in the harem or the eunuchs and palace maids. Test them all and see who has the same blood type as Chen Er."
The Emperor issued another order, and now, to everyone's surprise, the Emperor went to such lengths for Chen Er. The imperial edict immediately stirred up a huge uproar in the palace, and it seemed that many people were filled with fear and unease.
Inside the house, the Emperor saw the injured Chen Er for the first time, especially noticing his pale face and the blood-stained clothes on Chen Er's clothes.
The imperial physicians had changed Chen Er's clothes countless times, but each time, the clothes were completely stained red.
Originally, the imperial physician was not going to dress Chen Er, but there were many maids in the room, and Chen Er was not used to it. With no other choice, the imperial physician had to change Chen Er's clothes again.
At this moment, Chen Er seemed to sense that the Emperor had arrived, and the weak Chen Er opened his bright eyes.
Chen Er immediately looked at the Emperor and smiled: "Your Majesty, why have you come? I am a very resilient person, and I believe I can withstand this." Chen Er said very quietly.
Chen Er's words made the Emperor sigh. The Emperor patted Chen Er's shoulder and said angrily, "I believe you can hold on. Don't worry. I am completely enraged. I will capture all those assassins who harmed you and make them pay with their lives."
The Emperor's words pleased Chen Er greatly. Not to mention the Emperor's anger, even Chen Er himself was furious. At the same time, Chen Er thought of something and immediately looked at the Emperor to ask.
“Your Majesty, there is a man named Zhu Wenlong in the Embroidered Uniform Guard. You should know this guy, right? He led the team with me yesterday. However, he was afraid of offending Wei Zhongxian, so he didn’t let the Embroidered Uniform Guard interfere.”
Chen Er paused here, then continued.
"By the way, this has nothing to do with Brother Zhang. I hope you won't use Brother Zhang as a scapegoat. Even if you want to stand up for me, you should do it to Zhu Wenlong."
Although Chen Er was already very weak, he still heard the Emperor's roar at the door.
When Chen Er heard that the Emperor was going to target Zhang Xingchen, he naturally disagreed. Chen Er had always been very grateful to Zhang Xingchen; without Zhang Xingchen, there would be no Chen Er today. So how could Chen Er allow the Emperor to harm his good brother?
The Emperor felt a little helpless upon hearing Chen Er's words. He was unaware that Zhang Xingchen had not gone yesterday, so he ordered Zhang Xingchen to be arrested.
However, the Emperor did not speak. The Emperor was already displeased with Zhang Xingchen, after all, Zhang Xingchen was a stubborn man, so the Emperor planned to take this opportunity to make things difficult for Zhang Xingchen.
Let Chen Er take over direct management. Wouldn't that be wonderful? With a little effort, it wouldn't be impossible for Chen Er to contend with Wei Zhongxian.
The only person the Emperor currently favors is Chen Er. Apart from Chen Er, the Emperor can't think of anyone else who can rival Wei Zhongxian.
Although the emperor did not speak, Chen Er understood what was going on just by looking at him.
Chen Er said: Your Majesty, you must not harm Zhang Xingchen. He is my friend.
The Emperor was startled by Chen Er's serious injuries. "Hey, Lord Chen Er, please don't get agitated. Let's talk things out. Please don't harm us."
