Chapter 710: Shame
"How can you do that?! What are you going to do? It's none of anyone's business!"
Zheng Yingniang suddenly stopped crying, stroked her funny hair, and shouted with wide eyes.
Those people helped her, why should they be punished?
Zhao Wensong looked at Zheng Yingniang with an idiot-like look:
"You are righteous, but this is in the wrong place! You have violated military law by messing around, and you have your own fault, but they will never forgive them for helping and conniving at your nonsense!"
Zheng Yingniang glared at Zhao Wensong fiercely, and begged Xiao Shaotang with a pitiful look:
"Xiao Shaotang, this is really my own business......"
Xiao Shaotang rejected her mercilessly:
"This son is still confident in the methods under his rule, and in my military camp, there will never be a thing where someone can successfully infiltrate without help!"
Seeing that someone had already gone out to arrest someone, Zheng Yingniang couldn't hold her breath at all and shouted:
"Xiao Shaotang, my father has been deprived of his military rank by you, and you are still doing this to me now, are you going to kill all of us, the old people of the Qin Palace?"
Xiao Shaotang ignored her, and only looked at Zheng Baobao:
"Does Uncle Zheng think so?"
There is no military rank, and Xiao Shaotang can still call Zheng Baobao an uncle, which is enough to show respect for him, and such a question fully shows the questioning of him-
After all, his daughter who had just come to the capital could say such a thing, except that his father had a strict grudge in private, was there any other possibility?
Zheng Baobao broke out in a cold sweat, the conscience of heaven and earth, since he suffered a big loss that day, he has never said such a thing!
But at this time, even Zhang Shide and Zhao Wensong looked at him with suspicious eyes, Zheng Baobao secretly complained in his heart, he was going to be killed by his precious daughter!
He hurriedly knelt on the ground to show his loyalty:
"My subordinates have never said such a thing! It's all nonsense from this rebel girl, and I ask His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive me!"
Xiao Shaotang nodded lightly:
"This son believes in Uncle Zheng's loyalty. ”
But in his expression, it was impossible to tell whether he really believed or was still suspicious, and Zheng Baobao was also beating the drum in his heart.
The captain of the queue that Zheng Yingniang mixed in and a few soldiers who helped her cover up were quickly arrested, and the matter soon came to light.
Zheng Baobao and some lieutenant generals had already ordered someone to pick up their family members before, and they had told Xiao Shaotang about this, and Xiao Shaotang didn't think much about it at the time, after all, they had been separated for a long time, and it was normal for them to miss their families.
A few days ago, their families had already arrived in the capital.
Among these family members who came from afar, there were quite a few young women, who became the most eye-catching scenery in the Qin army camp for a while.
Fortunately, there are rules in the army, and the soldiers are just watching from a distance, and they don't dare to come forward to provoke.
And the ladies of other families are all in a regular manner and follow their families to live in the residence specially arranged for them in the military camp, but Zheng Yingniang never likes to be restrained, so she quietly slipped into the military camp while her family was not paying attention.
The soldiers in the army have not seen a woman for many years, and there are only the princesses and a few of her maids in the barracks, and ordinary soldiers dare not take a second look.
A female Jiao'e suddenly fell from the sky, even if her appearance was not beautiful, it was enough to cause a group of men in their youth to be disturbed.
In addition, Zheng Yingniang's personality jumped out, and she was even more proud when she saw that someone was willing to help her, but she didn't expect that at this time, it was really a large number of people.
The Wu Commander who helped Zheng Yingniang was beaten with 20 military sticks and took away his rank and military merits, and those who helped her cover up were also beaten with 10 military sticks, and all the previous credits were also taken away.
These people's military sticks were received on the empty school grounds, and in the cold wind howling, the screams of these people spread far and wide, and the entire barracks could come and watch.
Not to mention that those people were beaten and embarrassed, such a long time of fighting has become useless, not to mention, they really hate Zheng Yingniang in their hearts.
Zheng Yingniang, the culprit, did not suffer any flesh and skin, but she was held aside to watch with her hair disheveled, embarrassed, and the onlookers only inquired a little about the cause and effect.
Everyone's eyes suddenly became weird when they looked at Zheng Yingniang-
Although there were precedents in the previous dynasty of women disguising themselves as men to gain fame in the army, they were all at the time of the invasion of foreign enemies and the crisis of defending the homeland and defending the country, and they could not be reasoned with normal theory.
Moreover, although the constraints on women in the Great Qi Dynasty have been reduced since Queen Dugu, and women are not absolutely forbidden to join the army, they must be above board, and there can be conditions in the military camp to arrange women's military camps.
Like Zheng Yingniang, who acted recklessly and was found in the men's barracks, didn't she pour dirty water on herself?
No matter what you say in the future, you won't be able to say it innocently!
Zheng Yingniang was angry and ashamed, her tears couldn't stop flowing, and she hated Xiao Shaotang for being ruthless and unrighteous in her heart.
"It's a pity, the reputation of the second lady of the Zheng family is over......"
Zhao Wensong couldn't bear it and sighed silently.
Zhang Shide didn't think there was any pity:
"She is not a child, and the military camp is not a place for people to mess around, since the Zheng family has no tutor, it is no wonder that others have today's results!"
Zhao Wensong pondered Zhang Shide's expression for a while, and always felt that something was not right-
Could it be that Zhang Shide's insistence on exposing this matter was a grudge against Qin Jun for threatening his family when he was in Hangu Pass, Yuzhou?
At that time, it was indeed Zheng Baobao's idea first, but ......
Zhao Wensong persuaded:
"Now that we are all a family, there were some things at the beginning, and the situation had to be done at that point, you also want to open some, why bother?"
Zhang Shide was stunned for a moment, then understood what Zhao Wensong meant, and sneered:
"Vice Admiral Zhao thinks that I have a personal vendetta?! Then it was you Zhao Wensong who put the blade on my family's neck, so what do you say?"
Zhao Wensong was questioned by him like this, and after asking himself, he found that his guess was really untenable, after all, Zhang Shide has mostly fought side by side with him so far, and he has never made trouble for him.
But he still felt uncomfortable:
"Then why are you suffering? The Zheng family has fallen to the bottom, and now that Miss Zheng Er's incident comes out, everyone will know that she once mixed into the barracks and lived in the same room with men, and the Zheng family will be able to raise their heads in the future?"
"That's their Zheng family's business. The family style is not right, and the goddaughter is not strict, but he dares to stretch his hand into the barracks...... Vice General Zhao, you are so sympathetic to them, but please ask His Royal Highness the Prince how he feels in his heart? If Zheng Yingniang is a spy, what will be the consequences?"
After Zhang Shide finished speaking, he turned his head and walked away, obviously not wanting to tell Zhao Wensong about it again.
Zhao Wensong couldn't say anything, he smiled bitterly and walked away - yes, he patronized and sympathized with the Zheng family, but he forgot that the military camp was not an ordinary place.
For the Zheng family's actions, it is already the mercy of His Royal Highness the Prince.
Zheng Yingniang cried and watched the execution, and then was sent back to the place where the Zheng family lived, hiding in the house alone and still crying bitterly.
Mrs. Zheng was busy comforting her daughter who couldn't stop crying, and on the other hand, she wanted to stop her husband, who wanted to beat her daughter to death, so she couldn't help crying:
"What kind of sin have I done, you are angry with me one by one!"
The family was in a lot of trouble, and someone outside came to knock on the door.
Mrs. Zheng had to collect her tears and ordered someone to open the door.
The one who followed the servant in was a tall and graceful woman with a very good appearance, who was the daughter of the Wang family who settled next door to their house, Wang Dashun's nephew Queen Huiniang.
"Hui Niang is here......"
The relationship between their Zheng family and the Wang family is the best, and Mrs. Zheng did not shy away from being seen by Wang Huiniang in the chaotic appearance of the family, but directly let her in:
"You unconscious sister, you are simply trying to force me to death, Hui Niang came just in time, you help me persuade her, let her stop doing evil to me......"
Wang Huiniang did not refuse, smiled lightly and comforted Mrs. Zheng a few words, and then went inside to see Zheng Yingniang.
Zheng Yingniang was crying sadly, and when she heard someone coming in, she became irritable, so she simply covered her head with a quilt and ignored it.
Wang Huiniang was not in a hurry, sat down on the edge of her bed, waited for a while, heard the sobbing sound in the quilt quieted down, and then reached out and patted her gently.
"Sister Yingniang, how did I tell you before I came to the capital? Who is His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, how can you be so anxious and make trouble?"
"You're here to blame me too?"
Zheng Yingniang was spoiled by her family, and she couldn't listen to others blaming her, at this time, hearing Wang Huiniang, who has always been mild-mannered, also say this, Huo Ran lifted the quilt on her head and sat up, and asked aggressively.
When Wang Huiniang saw her like this, she was not impatient, but sighed before she said:
"I'm not blaming my sister, I'm distressed my sister!"
Zheng Yingniang spent the whole day in chaos and the scolding of others, and suddenly heard Wang Huiniang's words, no matter how big the anger was, it was instantly extinguished, and she looked at Wang Huiniang blankly.
Only then did Wang Huiniang reach out and stroke her hair that had been tied up again, her eyes full of pity:
"I feel sorry for my sister's infatuation, not only wrong payment, but also hurt my own body! How important is the hair of my daughter's family, His Royal Highness the Prince doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and he doesn't show ......mercy at all."
Hearing someone mention her disgraceful hair like this, Zheng Yingniang's heart seemed to be poked with a knife, and she couldn't help but start sobbing again:
"He wasn't like that before, and he didn't bother me when I made him angry...... It must be that after he came to the capital, he was instigated by a foxy woman like the princess with a cold heart and lungs, so ruthless!"
Hearing her say that His Royal Highness the Prince had never bothered with her, Wang Huiniang was out of her mind for a moment, and then said earnestly:
"Sister, listen to my sister's advice, now that you know that he is no longer His Royal Highness the former prince, then take back this piece of infatuation!"
"Regardless of whether the princess is charming or not, and whether it is Her Royal Highness the prince instigated by her, the current princess is not something you can compete with, in terms of appearance and family background, where can we ordinary women compare, not to mention, I seem to have heard that the princess ......"
Wang Huiniang wanted to speak and stopped.
Zheng Yingniang was listening to the heartbreak, and when she saw that she didn't say anything, she immediately pricked up her ears and asked:
"What else did my sister hear?"
Wang Huiniang was very embarrassed:
"My uncle told me not to tell anyone about this casually......"
"What else can't be said? What about the princess? If it weren't for her to get into the Weibei Hou Mansion, then the Bai family, she would not be as good as us!"
As long as Zheng Yingniang thought of the princess she had never met, she couldn't help but be angry, and said hatefully:
"If you have anything to say, just say it, no matter what happens, I will never tell others that my sister told me!"
Wang Huiniang seemed to have made a lot of determination, and said hesitantly:
"We've been here for a few days, and I seem to have heard that the princess is pregnant...... Uncle Zheng was dealt with by His Royal Highness the Prince of Military Law last time, and then he was pardoned because of the princess's pregnancy......"
After another pause, he said:
"Sister, think about it carefully, the princess originally had a backer, and now she is pregnant, how can you beat her?"
"She's pregnant?!"
This news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and a deep sense of jealousy immediately came out of Zheng Yingniang's heart, and she grabbed Wang Huiniang's hand:
"Sister Huiniang, you are usually the smartest person, you teach me how to do it!"
Wang Huiniang shook off Zheng Yingniang's hand as if she was burned by fire, looking frightened and scared:
"Sister Yingniang, what do you mean by this! The princess is pregnant, what can I teach you! I can only teach you to regress and withdraw, don't have such delusions again!"
Zheng Yingniang stood up and stomped her feet:
"I can't regress and get out! I have seen a lot of men in the world, but none of them can match His Royal Highness the Son of the World! Those who are better looking than him are not as capable as him, and those who are more capable than him are not as young and good-looking as him!"
"But now that it's come to this point, he's done this to you, what's the use of you continuing to obsess!"
"But he didn't do this before, it's all because of the princess......"
"Then you can't deal with the princess, it's useless to say more!"
Wang Huiniang seemed to be unable to stand Zheng Yingniang's nonsense, frowned and said, and was about to leave.
"The family affairs of my daughter's family are all decided by the parents, where can we be allowed to mess around. Since I can't persuade you, then I'll go first, and you should think about it, whether it's worth it or not!"
Seeing Wang Huiniang throw her hand and leave, Zheng Yingniang followed after two steps, then stopped, and stayed alone and thought for a long time.
At this time, she couldn't care about what Wang Huiniang was thinking, she had to think about it, what should she do-
Who said she couldn't deal with the princess?
A woman who relies on the Xu family and is pregnant is not in her eyes!
In the gradually blank night, Wang Huiniang took her maid and walked away.
When he walked to the door of his house, the maid who had been hiding outside the door and eavesdropping covered his mouth and snickered:
"It is said that this Miss Zheng Er is not ashamed, she is really shameless! She has seen a lot of men in the world, so she simply said that she is as good as she can do!"
"Shut up, all day long, you talk a lot!"
Wang Huiniang frowned and scolded.
But the maid just grinned, as if she was used to it, and there was no fear at all, and she followed Wang Huiniang, who had already turned her head, into the house.
