It's a pity that a few maids are also meat buns and beat dogs, and there is no one to go, until the sun is in the west, he is so hungry that his chest is close to his back, and his thirsty throat is smoking, Zhang Yang rushed over again.

"Oh, I'm sorry, father-in-law." Zhang Yang smiled and bowed, and responded, "Our mother fell asleep after drinking the medicinal soup before, and the imperial doctor ordered it, so it's not good to disturb." No, the mother just woke up, and she's ready to go out. Da Zongzheng's appointment clearly said that if the mother wants to pass today, she must not be confined to this morning or evening. ”

"No, no!" The old eunuch only felt that half of his old life was about to be confessed at this time, where did he dare to make things difficult, and he couldn't wait to get out in one step. As long as he brings people to Zongzheng Mansion, he will complete the task, and when the time comes, he will take a cup of tea and watch this damn princess Niangniang unlucky, no matter how much hatred he has, he will also return it.

Zhang Yang saw that his lips were dry and bursting, and he was also relieved, smiled and asked him to sit for a while, and then went down to order the carriage and horses to be prepared.

Dong Rong rested for such a day, her spirit was much better, and she felt that she could deal with the temptations and fists of the wicked, so she changed into her imperial clothes again and got into the carriage. The old eunuch was afraid that something would happen again, so he refused to take his own carriage anymore, but instead sat on the wheel of Dong Rong's carriage.

Dong Rong didn't know how to do it, and he didn't pay attention to it. For him, it doesn't matter how these little minions are, what matters is the attitude of the big guys. According to today's situation, it is difficult to guarantee whether the bulk has also been bought and become a pawn of others. If that's the case, she may have some twists and turns today.

Thinking like this, the carriage arrived in front of the gate of Zongzheng Mansion, because this time it was recruited to come for questioning, so the carriage did not have the right to enter the gate. Dong Rong climbed the stone stairs step by step with the support of the maid, and finally arrived in front of the two vermilion gates. When the little eunuch saw this, he hurriedly opened the side door. Dong Rong was about to go in with the people, but the old eunuch didn't know where to go, a black-faced eunuch stopped at the door, and said hard, "It's good for the princess to go in alone, and the rest of the idle people can't enter." ”

"This father-in-law," Zhang Yang smiled and took two steps forward, and with one hand in his cuffs, he was about to send some silver tickets to open the way. But the eunuch didn't even raise his eyelids, and directly threw out another sentence, "The royal land, idle people are not allowed to enter." ”

Dong Rong made up her mind to be tough this time, otherwise she would blindly tolerate it, I am afraid that cats and dogs will think that Zhongshan Wangfu is easy to bully.

"Steward Zhang, take someone to wait outside." Dong Rong commanded lightly.

How could Zhang Yang rest assured, when he opened his mouth to persuade him, Dong Rong turned to the black-faced eunuch.

"Where is this Fair Day, and does he have the emperor's special gold medal?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but Zhang Yang immediately understood Dong Rong's intentions, and he was really a little crying and laughing. is about to fall into the mouth of the tiger, at this time if you don't feed the tiger cattle and sheep, how can you repay the favor and brush the tiger's beard?

That eunuch has been fooling around in Zongzheng Mansion all his life, and naturally he is not a fool, his face instantly turned pale and pale, which is extremely exciting. But in the end, he still bent down unwillingly to salute Dong Rong, "Slave Li Quan greets the princess." ”

Dong Rong raised her chin high, as if she hadn't seen his luggage, her expression was still faint, and she refused to respond.

Li Quan couldn't, tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, knelt down again and said loudly, "Slave Li Quan asks the princess Niangniang to say goodbye, Niangniang is blessed." ”

Dong Rong smiled slightly and responded, "Oh, it's Manager Li, get up." It's not easy for you to be a slave, and if you kneel around all day, I'm afraid your knees are weak. We still have some good medicine from the south in our palace, and if my knees are uncomfortable one day, I can just come to the door to ask for it. ”

"Thank you for your generous gift." How could Li Quan not hear the naked disdain and warning in Dong Rong's words, he gritted his teeth with hatred, but he still had to kowtow and thank him.

Dong Rong didn't pay attention to her at all, turned her head and nodded slightly at Zhang Yang and the others, and then walked into the door. Although Zhang Yang knew that Jia Yi and the others were secretly protecting, his heart became heavier and heavier when he saw the door of Zongzheng Mansion creak and slam shut. But remembering my sister-in-law's many previous instructions, I had to clench my fists tightly.

According to Dong Rong's thoughts, the person who framed her was afraid of her identity, so she had to be tricked first, and she would tear her face if she didn't succeed. But she obviously underestimated their rampantness, she was led by the little eunuch, and as soon as she entered the lobby of Zongzheng's mansion, she saw the black-faced Dazong Zhengzheng sitting on the main seat, with an obviously annoyed expression. Dong Rong's brows furrowed slightly, and she bent down to salute, "Lord Zongzheng, this palace is polite." ”

On weekdays, Dazong was about to stop her with a smile without waiting for her to bend down, but after she finished her salute today, he didn't wake up, but scolded, "Dong, you are really bold?" I sent someone to announce the summons, and you actually came at this time? Do you have Zongzheng Mansion in your eyes? ”

Dong Rong was angry when she heard this, slowly straightened her waist, and asked coldly, "Lord Zongzheng, is this blaming the palace?" The palace never knew when the Zongzheng Mansion represented the entire royal family? Do you want me to send someone into the palace to see the Empress Dowager and ask her to comment on the old man's opinion. This palace is for the first order of the dynasty, Princess Zhongshan, because she was falsely accused for no reason, even if she was seriously ill in bed, she had to support her self-defense. Da Zongzheng not only did not sympathize, but opened his mouth to reprimand. Could it be that before the case was tried, Da Zongzheng had already treated this palace as a prisoner? Is it rudeness or rudeness? ”

"You," Dazong Zheng's beard was curled, and he said in annoyance, "don't use the Empress Dowager to scare the old man, since the old man is sitting in this position, he has the right to issue an edict to any person from the royal family to defend himself." ”

"Da Zongzheng also knows that Zongzheng Mansion only has the right to inquire, I thought you were going to be tortured and tortured in this palace." Dong Rong smiled contemptuously, where could he see the slightest fear, "Since this is the case, Da Zongzheng should hurry up and start asking, the cold in this palace has not healed, but it may not be able to last for a quarter of an hour." ”

Da Zongzheng also felt that if he continued to say this, his goal was not achieved, and he was about to roll his eyes, so he hurriedly glanced at Li Quan, who was waiting beside him. Li Quan bowed his head and hurriedly walked to the back hall.

Dong Rong didn't care about how they acted, just found a chair at random and sat down with Shi Shiran, and finally asked, "Isn't there any tea in Zongzheng Mansion, isn't there tea in the Internal Affairs Mansion?" ”

This is a bit vicious, if it spreads, Xu Yes will become the Zongzheng Mansion complaining about the corruption of the Internal Affairs Office and deducting materials. Although in fact, the Zongzheng Mansion was indeed troubled before, but since the noble man in the palace said hello, it has never happened again. However, those villains in the Internal Affairs Office are still not easy to offend.

Thinking of this, Da Zongzheng could only hold back his anger and motioned to the little eunuch at the door to make tea and serve snacks.

Soon, four plates of dim sum and a pot of tea were delivered, and Dong Rong played with the teacup in her hand slowly, without any drops of water touching her lips. She asked for tea just to fight Da Zongzheng, planting a tough impression in his heart, and he thought he was too easy to bully. As for this tea, she was in the enemy camp, if there was something mixed in it, wouldn't she suffer a big loss, and she would definitely not be able to drink half of it.

Seeing this, Dazong snorted coldly, and no longer opened his mouth to provoke. After a while, Li Quan made arrangements, and led two officials wearing the four-grade official mansion to walk in from outside the door. Dazong was getting up to greet the two of them, and finally said to Dong Rong, "These two are the auxiliary officials of Dali Temple, and they are in charge of archives and files on weekdays, and they are the most careful. Today, the old man invited them to record, saving some people from saying that Zongzheng Mansion had wronged her by covering the sky with one hand. ”

Dong Rong also ignored the thorn in Dazong's righteous words, nodded with a smile and the two auxiliary officers, and said lightly, "Today, the two of you have been recorded." ”

The two auxiliary officials didn't know anything before, and they had been called by Zongzheng Mansion to make records before, and they came with Li Quan as soon as they saw him come to the door today. Where did they think that they were actually going to wade into troubled waters, both of them had a terrible headache, but they were already standing in Zongzheng Mansion, and it was not easy to find an excuse to slip away. So he hurriedly saluted Dong Rong and made up his mind, today is to start writing, and he won't speak anymore.

Dazong has a bottom in his heart, so he naturally doesn't pay attention to the careful thoughts of the two of them.

The two auxiliary officers sat behind the bookcase with a bitter face, and Da Zongzheng cleared his throat and asked, "Dong, some people complained that when you returned to Kyoto that day, you stayed in a small town fifteen miles outside the city the night before, and the innkeeper and his companion were insulted by you because of their poor service, and when you left the next day, you ordered your subordinates to kill the shopkeeper and his companion. Are you guilty? ”

Dong Rong's eyes flashed, and she slowly put down the teacup in her hand and responded, "Lord Zongzheng, would you order the slave to take his life because he didn't serve him well?" ”

"Of course not!" Dazong Zheng immediately retorted, and then frowned and scolded, "Dong, don't confuse the question, hurry up and answer." ”

"Since Lord Zongzheng won't, then I naturally won't." Dong Rong smiled coldly, "Although the prince and I don't live in Kyoto for a long time, you can ask the people of Kyoto, how many of them haven't been taken care of by our palace?" Not to mention the giving of cotton clothes and quilts in winter and medicine in summer, even in the filial piety garden outside the city, there are still more than 700 widows and orphans. Let me ask, if the prince and I don't have good intentions, how can we care about the lives and deaths of the people? ”

After saying this, not to mention others, the two record assistants nodded first, but then remembered the previous plan and quickly lowered their heads.

Dong Rong also ignored the black-faced Da Zongzheng and continued, "So, Lord Zongzheng said that I ordered the killing because the innkeeper and the guys were not well served, and there is no possibility at all. Master Zongzheng still sent someone to investigate whether the person who complained was instructed by someone to frame me is the right thing. ”

Dazong Zheng picked up the herbal tea in his hand, poured it down, and his mind instantly turned countless persuasions, and then he spoke again, "The duty of Zongzheng Mansion is to restrain and punish the royal family, so as not to oppress the people. Dong, don't leave anything to chance, it's better to confess your crimes earlier. The king of Zhongshan is the prince of Daqi, so you can order to kill two people, and there is not much blame, just give more money to compensate. Otherwise, once this case is passed into the palace, with the jealousy and hatred of His Majesty the Emperor, I am afraid that this matter will be difficult to handle. ”R638
