Rumor Has It That I'm Pregnant with His Highness' Child Chapter 239

   Chapter 239 Tang Pei

  Du Tao hesitated.

   "But General Tang is still in a coma. Even if you go, you can only watch, and you can't even say a word."

   Xiao Juan: "It's okay, we just need to see him."

  Du Tao had no choice but to agree.

   "Then I'll take you to see General Tang now."

   The group got up and walked out.

  Du Tao introduced them to the general situation in the military camp as he walked.

  The coach of the Eastern Expedition Army was Tang Pei, and there were four generals under him.

  During the period when Tang Pei was seriously ill, Du Tao took care of everything in the barracks, and the other three generals assisted.

   The four of them are not small, and they manage the large Eastern Expedition Army in an orderly manner.

   Lu Luiguang was full of praise for them along the way.

   Xiao Juan suddenly asked a question.

   "This king heard that some people in the Eastern Expedition Army kept military prostitutes, is this true?"

   Du Tao and Lu Luiguang's expressions changed.

   They were a little worried when they met Xiao Wan's deep gaze.

  Du Tao forced a smile.

   "His Royal Highness is joking. The emperor has already decreed that the keeping of military prostitutes is prohibited. Even if we borrow a hundred courage, we will not dare to disobey the imperial decree!"

  Xiao Juan: "In that case, let the Eagle Guards generals search the camp. After the search is complete, it is determined that the rumors are false. If someone says something like this later, this king will immediately send someone to arrest them and punish them severely."

   The smile on Du Tao's face was almost unstoppable.

   "This, this is not good."

  Xiao Juan asked, "What's wrong?"

  Du Tao: "We are the camp of the Eastern Expedition Army, not the Justice Department. The Eagle Guards shouldn't have the right to search, right?"

   Xiao Juan said calmly.

   "When the Emperor established the Judicial Division, he once said--

   As long as someone violates the law, the Justice Department has the power to investigate and deal with it.

   By doing this, this king is actually protecting the reputation of your Eastern Expedition Army.

   As long as you can find out the truth and confirm that the rumors are false, no one will slander you in the future. "

  The cold sweat on Du Tao's head was all down.

   He went to see Lu Luiguang, hoping that the other party would help him with a word.

   But Lu Luiguang turned his eyes elsewhere, obviously not wanting to swim in this muddy water.

  Du Tao had no choice but to grit his teeth and said as if he was going out of his way.

   "Since His Royal Highness the county king insists on a search, let's do a search.

   After visiting General Tang, you can search at will.

   Anyway, we are sitting upright and we are not afraid of being investigated! "

  Xiao Juan seemed to be satisfied with his answer and nodded slightly.

   "That's good."

   The group walked into the courtyard.

   Before opening the door, Du Tao said to the others.

"I'm sorry.

  General Tang is still in a coma, and the military doctor told him to rest in peace.

   It is easy to disturb General Tang's rest due to the crowd.

   So we can only go in at most four people at a time, the rest please wait outside. "

  Xiao Juan instructed Meng Xizhou who was following behind him.

   "You and the others stay outside and wait."

   "Here."

  Du Tao knocked on the door. After a while, the door was opened, and a servant came out.

   When he saw so many nobles standing outside, he hurriedly knelt down and gave a big gift.

  Du Tao called the person up and asked.

   "How is General Tang now?"

   The little servant replied honestly: "I haven't woken up yet."

  Du Tao sighed, then turned sideways and made a gesture of inviting in to King Min and King Lang.

   King Min and King Lang Jun walked into the house first, followed by Du Tao and Lu Lingguang.

   When the four entered the house, the door was immediately closed from the outside.

   King Min frowned and asked, "Why do you want to close the door?"

  Du Tao explained with a smile: "The door is closed so that the voices outside will not disturb General Tang."

  They went around the screen and saw the bed.

  The bed was surrounded by gauze curtains, through which one could barely see a person lying on the bed, but could not see the specific appearance of that person.

  Du Tao walked over, stretched out his hand to lift the bed curtain, turned his head and said to the other three.

   "This is General Tang."

  Xiao Lian and King Min walked to the bedside and were slightly taken aback when they saw the person lying on the bed.

   When Tang Pei went to Beijing to report his work, Xiao Juan had met Tang Pei before, and he remembered Tang Pei as a man of extraordinary bravery, cheerfulness, and finesse.

   But now, Tang Pei lay motionless on the bed, his face was bloodless, his eyes were tightly closed, and his lips were blue.

   At first glance it looks like he is dead.

  Xiao Lian's eyes moved.

   He wanted to reach out to probe Tang Pei's breath, but was stopped by Du Tao's hand.

   "What is His Royal Highness going to do?"

  Xiao Lian lied without changing his face: "This king has read a lot of medical books and has a little understanding of the way of Qihuang. This king wants to give General Tang a pulse to see how his condition is?"

  Du Tao said slowly.

   "General Tang's condition is very serious.

   The last general not only asked the military doctor to see him, but also specially invited a famous doctor to diagnose and treat him, but there was no improvement.

   Even if it is useless to check the pulse of His Royal Highness, I will not bother you. "

  Xiao Juan: "It's just a pulse, it doesn't require any thought."

  Du Tao: "Forget it, this is not something His Royal Highness should do."

   "Are you teaching this king to do things?"

   "His Royal Highness has misunderstood. The last commander just doesn't want to waste your time."

   The two were **** for tat, and neither was willing to back down.

   King Min flicked his whisk and said slowly: "King Langjun just wants to give General Tang a pulse. It won't take much time, so it's okay to let him try."

   Both His Royal Highnesses opened their mouths. Du Tao couldn't bear it alone, so he turned to look at Lu Luiguang.

   "Lord Lu, what do you think?"

  Lu Luiguang was trying his best to reduce his sense of existence. Unexpectedly, Du Tao called his name directly, and now everyone looked at him.

   He had to bite the bullet and say.

   "Didn't His Royal Highness just say that he will wake up just by looking at General Du? Now that people have seen it, shouldn't we also leave?"

  Xiao Lian looked at him fixedly: "It seems that Lu Junshou and General Du have a very good friendship."

   Lu Linguang smiled contemptuously.

   "We just know each other. We don't have a deep friendship. Compared with General Du, Xiaguan and General Tang have a deeper friendship. After all, the Tang and Lu families are family friends."

   Xiao Juan continued to ask: "Since you are a family friend, why has General Tang been seriously ill for a long time, but you have not reported this to the court?"

  Lu Yuguang choked.

   He quickly defended himself.

"Before I saw that General Tang was not seriously injured, plus General Du actively asked someone to treat him, thinking he would get better soon, so he didn't report the matter to the court, who would have thought that his injury would be What about the sudden deterioration? If I had known this would happen, I would have reported it to the court long ago."

  Xiao Juan: "That being the case, this king will now send a letter back to Yujing to inform the emperor of this."

   After saying that, he raised his feet and walked out.

  Du Tao stopped him again: "Why is Your Royal Highness so anxious?"

   Xiao Wan spit out two words coldly.

   "Go away."
