Chapter 107: My Son
Xie Xun's screams like those of a slaughtering pig could be heard in the room. It was the imperial doctor who was applying medicine to him. Those who didn't know the method might have thought he had a grudge against him.

The Su family members stood in the yard. The night wind blew away her drunkenness and sent a chill down her back.

[The old emperor is really scary. If someone is drinking in the Duke’s Mansion, he will know it even in the palace]

Liu Miaoqing knew from her father that the emperor sent people to protect the Su family secretly, but what she didn't expect was that His Majesty even wanted to know what the Su family did, who they met, and what they said.

Not even an hour after drinking, someone came to the palace.

Liu Xuan pondered with his eyes. If Duke Pingguo's palace had your Majesty's eyes, then the people in the palace should not have come so quickly. Otherwise, Duke Ping knew that your majesty's move would hurt the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.

His gaze fell on Su Juan calmly. Could it be that there was His Majesty's spy around Su Juan?

But why did His Majesty place an informant around her? What's so special about her?
Duke Ping came out of the house and saw that several people were still guarding him. He waved his hands and said, "It's okay. Don't worry. The imperial doctor has seen it. It's nothing serious. It's just a skin injury. I think I'll be able to jump around tomorrow."

Several people breathed a sigh of relief, and it was okay.

Liu Xuan said with concern, "I still have to stay in bed for the next two days." After all, it takes a hundred days to break the bones.

The Su family members thought, "The old emperor has made quite complete preparations. Both the beaters and the rescuers have come together. Once this good medicine is applied, the Duke of Guo will not be able to vent his anger even if he is angry." 】

[Xie Xun probably choked on this sweet date. 】

Duke Ping still had a smile on his face, "It's okay, he's thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and twenty sticks are still missing."

If this were me, I would give him fifty sticks at least.

【My dear son.】

Soon, the imperial doctor came out and said, "It's not a big deal. Just stay in bed overnight and you'll be fine tomorrow. Don't worry, Mr. Guo."

The person in charge of the cane punishment in this palace is well versed in the art of beating people. Some of the beatings may seem severe, but they are actually skin injuries. Some may seem like light beatings, but in fact they can damage the muscles and bones, and even kill people.

This Prince Xie, His Majesty is just teaching him a lesson. After all, he has not committed anything, so there is no way he could really injure someone.

Duke Ping smiled and said, "What can I worry about? Your Majesty is willing to teach this boy a lesson for me. It's too late for me to be happy. Doctor Liang, I'll see you off."

Imperial Doctor Liang held the wooden box and said politely, "There is no need to send it away, Mr. Guo. It's a two-step process. How can I be embarrassed?"

Duke Ping is a real person. Since you said no, I won't send it away. "Since Imperial Physician Liang has said so, I won't send it away. Physician Liang, please go away slowly."

Dr. Liang: "." I'll just be polite.

As soon as the imperial doctor left, Ping Guogong asked the steward and two young men to take care of Xie Xun in the room. He turned to look at Su Juan with a happy look on his face, "Come on, I will show you the yard." .”

If it hadn't been for someone from the palace, he wouldn't have known that Su Juan had arrived and let this brat be abducted to the courtyard to drink.

He even wants to rob someone like me, he really deserves a beating.

Your Majesty's twenty sticks really did not accuse him in vain.

Duke Ping looked at Liu Xuan and Liu Miaoqing, "Are you two going together or staying here?"

The two looked at each other, and then Xie Xun's shout came from the room, "Help! Someone come quickly. I feel so hurt!"

Liu Miaoqing looked at Su Juan and said, "I'd better follow Ajuan."

I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate for me to stay here alone as a girl.Liu Xuan nodded slightly, "My nephew also wants to go and take a look at the courtyard that the Duke has arranged for Miss Su."

Su Juan: "?" [But I didn't say I wanted to go, why don't you ask me? 】

Ping Guogong and Liu Miaoqing pretended not to hear, and they left Xie Xun's yard. It was not until the pig-killing shouts gradually disappeared that their ears were quiet.

The courtyard arranged by Duke Pingguo for the Su family is very large. As soon as you enter the courtyard, you can smell the fragrance of flowers. There are lights along the road and the courtyard is kept very clean.

When Liu Miaoqing saw the yard, she was stunned. Behind a large area of ​​colorful flowers, there was a swing. The wood of the swing looked like sandalwood. Only then did she notice that these flowers were very expensive, and many of them were rare species, but Unavailable.
The Xie family is truly wealthy.

No wonder Xie Xun wears new clothes every day when he goes out. He is accustomed to wearing a bunch of rings on his body, and he always has the best food and clothing.

Previously, many prominent figures in Beijing had written articles criticizing Xie Xun for spending money like water, being too extravagant, and being such a playboy who did not understand the sufferings of ordinary people.

But she has been raised like this by the Duke since she was a child, and she has no chance to understand this kind of suffering.

Duke Ping was very satisfied with his arrangements. He looked at Su Juan with a smug expression on his face, "Girl, what do you think?"

You know, many of these flowers are not available in Beijing. He specially sent people to ship them back from outside.

It was exactly the same as the courtyard in the impression. Surprise appeared on Su Juan's face, "Thank you, Mr. Guo. I like it very much."

Duke Ping squinted his eyes and knew that his vision was correct. Look at how much his niece likes her, which shows that his arrangement is absolutely right.

The Su family sighed, "This flower is so fragrant." [In the future, you should prepare more medicine to prevent insect bites. This is not a trivial matter if it attracts bees. 】

Duke Ping: "."

Su Juan crossed the large sea of ​​flowers with a happy face and walked to the swing. The swing was still wrapped with vines and had flowers on it.

She sat down on the swing, but it turned out that the swing was too short. The master who made the swing thought it was for little girls to sit on, so naturally it was made shorter for fear of being thrown by others. As a result, as soon as the Su family members sat down, they fell. It was like sitting on a chair, with my legs bent and unable to swing up at all.

Duke Ping: "."

Liu Miaoqing smiled and said nothing. The people who built this yard probably thought that this yard was for young girls.

Su Juan's face was filled with surprise, and she looked at the Duke with a smile on her face, "I like this swing too, thank you so much, Duke."

[It’s a pity that this fine sandalwood cannot be used for swinging, so it is wasted.]

Duke Ping coughed lightly and said, "This swing looks a little small, and there seem to be too many flowers. It's okay. I'll call someone to repair it tomorrow."

He looked at Su Juan and scolded several colleagues, "Who are you recommending? He can't even make a swing."

Su Juan wanted to laugh, but she held it back. After all, this was the old man's heartfelt wish, and she had to cherish it and express her gratitude.

Liu Xuan's eyes fell on Su Juan, and then he looked at Duke Ping, his crimson thin lips pursed slightly. Wasn't Duke Ping too kind to Su Juan?

Xie Xun was still lying in the house, but he took Su Juan here to visit the yard.

The decoration of this whole courtyard probably cost a lot of money and manpower. It shows the importance that Duke Ping places on the Su family. It shows that Duke Ping attaches great importance to the Su family.
Thinking of what his father said to him that day, he looked at Su Juan and his eyes were slightly startled. Could it be that that girl was the Su Juan in front of him?
