Chapter 252: Foolishness

"This palace doesn't look at the process, only the result. Sanbao is getting old, and besides, he is the father emperor's confidant, not this palace's confidant. Do you understand what this palace me...Chapter 252: Foolish

Li Chen did not kill Wei Dangxian.

This has nothing to do with appreciating talent.

...Wei, who had almost taken his own life, was the kind of person Li Chen wanted to chop up and feed to dogs immediately in order to deter others from acting recklessly. ...

But right now, it's absolutely not possible to kill Wei Dangxian.

It's all for the soldiers of Nanyang Camp. We have to put on a good show for them.

You should know that Nandaiying is more than just the thousand people in front of you.

Out there, there are still seven thousand!

...The number of people in the program is the same as Peking University camp....

Those seven thousand people didn't come in, perhaps because they couldn't agree, or maybe because there were too many. Anyone could see there was a problem. Once the capital city gates closed, none of them would be able to get in.

In short, Li Chen's top priority at the moment was to appease the 8,000 soldiers of Nanding Camp who were feeling anxious and uneasy.

Otherwise, once this group of elite troops at the capital gate mutinies completely, it will be a deeply painful blow to Qin.

Turning into the General's Mansion, Li Chen grasped Su Jinping's hand and said, "Thank you."

Su Jinpa said calmly, "You can't die, at least not now."

Li Chen was taken aback for a moment and chuckled lightly, "When will I die"

Su Jinpa glanced at Li Chen, but said nothing.

As they spoke, Li Chen had already stepped into the General's Mansion.

Back in the inner chambers, Duan Jinjiang sat imprisoned, his eyes wide with astonishment as he stared at Li Chen. “Surprised to see this Palace alive and well” Li Chen asked.

At this time, Li Chen's shoulders were still oozing blood. It was easy to tell he was injured.

Du Jianjiang didn't know what had happened outside. He only heard a short burst of shouts and then everything went quiet.

Li Chen came back alive, which means he's almost finished.

"Your Highness, the gauze for stopping the bleeding is already soaked through. Allow me to change it for you."

Three treasures came over and said with concern.

Li Chen glanced at San Bao. An old saying goes, "Don't avoid seeing a doctor when you are sick, but avoid eunuchs." He really couldn't stand the sight of an old eunuch with a pained expression touching him all over, so he said, "Go call the doctor in and let the doctor change it."

Soon, the doctor hurried in with his head bowed. After receiving Li Chen's permission, he stood behind him and untied Li Chen's clothes to change the dressing. He dared not look around, wishing he could cover his ears.

At this moment, a report came from outside the door that Wei had finished his punishment.

"Come in."

Soon, Wei entered, shirtless and covered in deep whip marks and blood.

Even with his hands bound behind him, held down by two of the strongest guards, he still carried himself with an air of arrogance and disdain.

Li Chen allowed the physician behind him to move, he did not pay attention to Duan Jinjiang's complicated expression, but addressed Wei first: "Tell me, how did Zhao Xuanji instigate you."

"Wei smiled coldly first and said, "Your Highness need not act like this. No one ordered me to do anything; everything was my own volition."

With a nod, Li Chen took a scroll from Sanzhao's hands and said, "This records your entire life story. You are an orphan with no parents or relatives. In this case, the threat of genocide wouldn't apply to you."

Wei sneered again and said nothing.

"Well then."

Li Chen put down the memorial and said, "Since you won't say, then this palace shall assume you did it yourself."

"Spread the word: Nan Daying Commanding Officer Wei, who assaulted the Crown Prince, is guilty of a grave offense. However, considering his years of meritorious service in leading troops, I will reduce his punishment from execution to thirty lashes and a year's forfeiture of salary. Since the lash sentence has already been carried out, he is now subjected to a year's forfeiture of salary and ordered to return to the military camp for reflection and repentance."

This statement, let alone the astonished stares of onlookers, even Wei himself was dumbfounded.venth Emperor, Emperor Jingren of Qin.Li Chen became interested and said, "The paper on military strategies, the first of the Taizu, naturally has nothing to say. But Emperor Jingren, while not partic...
