141 Humble Youth

Qi'er couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do the prince and the dustless young master also have nightmares?" This morning, I saw that the young lady also had dark circles under her eyes, and asked her, she said that she had a nightmare, but she didn't expect that there was more than one nightmare. ”

Dustless forced a smile "Really?" And what about the young lady now? Did you fall asleep again, or did you already get up? ”

Finch looked at Wuchen, "Miss washed up and dressed up early in the morning, and she has already gone out, let me tell you that you don't need to look for her, and you don't have to worry about her, she just went out to go shopping, and came back before dark." ”

How could Ruthless and Dustless not look for her, after listening to Qi'er's words, it was useless to even have breakfast, so he went out of the palace to look for Xiao Xiao directly.

It turned out that the more Xiao Xiao thought about it after being ruthlessly questioned yesterday, the more aggrieved she became, she obviously didn't do anything, but she had to be blamed by a half-hearted person with a fragrant hug. When you want to question ruthlessly, but you feel bored, what kind of answer do you want? Ruthless is just a joke? Ruthless will also have three wives and four concubines? will make you angry and disappointed. Ruthless is no longer the original ruthlessness, he is now the prince, and he will have his own fief and mansion in the future, how can he not be three wives and four concubines as a prince?

Thinking about his past again, although the shadow that Gu Xiaochuan brought to him has dissipated from his mind, there are some things that he has to bear for life, for example, she is no longer a virgin in people's mouths...... In this dynasty of extremely strict feudal etiquette, can a man accept that his wife has another man before him?

Is it fate or no fate for me to be ruthless? If not, how could he have traveled thousands of years to come to him; If there is a fate, why do you want to carry the pain all over your body, and you want to get close but don't dare to get close.

Xiao Xiao walked aimlessly, and unconsciously came to a stall selling noodles, looked at the sun, it was almost noon, Xiao Xiao's stomach was rumbling, so he sat down and asked for a bowl of noodles.

While eating noodles, I heard the person next door say, "Have you heard?" General Guan Da was arrested by the Zongren Mansion. ”

"I heard it, it seems that in the early dynasty, the crown prince took out evidence that General Guan betrayed his official position and perverted the law."

"Such a person should be arrested! His entire family should be killed in order to relieve the hatred in the hearts of our people. ”

Xiao Xiao couldn't help but turn his head to look at the people eating noodles when he heard this, they were just two ordinary people, Xiao Xiao didn't understand, why their hatred would involve General Guan's family and affect the innocent.

The person who said that the prince presented the evidence said, "I have a relative who works as an errand in the palace, that is, a eunuch...... He just saw him go out of the palace on an errand and asked him about it, and he said that although hundreds of members of General Guan's family have now been arrested, only the general and his eldest sons will be beheaded. ”

"How could this be, he committed such a big crime......" was full of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"It seems that the prince pleaded and said that the innocent should not be implicated."

Xiao Xiao listened to the prince's plea, remembering what he said last night, it seems that Shen Zhongkun listened to it and made efforts, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull a smile, it seems that he is still very benevolent, if such a person is the emperor, then there will be fewer deaths.

Xiao Xiao was thinking about it when she heard another person say, "Are they innocent? They eat well, live well, and General Guan's Mansion is like a palace, can't their family feel it? Don't you feel that General Guan and his sons can't get so much money just because they are officials in the imperial court? Even the subordinates who have finished brushing are like a mirror in their hearts, knowing how much General Daoguan has embezzled, they have never said it, are they still innocent? Why didn't the prince intercede for them? Who did we ordinary people recruit and provoke whom? General Guan said that if you expand the mansion, you will occupy the land! The money he collected wasn't all blown up from us! ”

Xiao Xiao felt a little in a trance for a moment, what this person said was reasonable, and the words were sonorous, yes, the family of the corrupt official would not know if the officials of his family were honest? But aren't they spending this incorruptible money the same way, and putting on the official authority that they shouldn't have? If they are innocent, then who should redress the grievances of the people who were oppressed to death? But do they really deserve to die?

Xiao Xiao was a little confused, it turned out that the so-called politics really couldn't make everyone feel satisfied.

Xiao Xiao remembered his attitude towards Shen Zhongkun yesterday, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, he invited himself to drink the best wine, and took himself to steal such an important thing, Shen Zhongkun believed in himself so enthusiastically, but in exchange for a meal that he didn't understand.

Xiao Xiao hired a sedan chair and walked to the prince's mansion after settling the bill, Xiao Xiao just entered the sedan chair, dustless and ruthless walked out of the fork in the road, people and the sedan chair passed by, no one saw anyone, although they converged, it was indeed two directions, and they went farther and farther.

Xiao Xiao arrived at the door of the prince's mansion, and was thinking about how to tell the guards that he was a friend of the prince, and when they let him in, he saw two sedan chairs coming from the west, the sedan chair stopped in front of the door, and a man in Tsing Yi got off the sedan chair first. Ruthless like a spring, dignified and left; Then the person in front of him is like a gentle piece of jade, although it is not very glamorous, but it makes people feel comfortable.

There was also a person in the sedan chair beside him, it was the crown prince Shen Zhongkun. Shen Zhongkun saw Xiao Xiao standing in front of his mansion, his heart was indescribably happy, he stepped forward quickly, and said with a smile, "Why are you here?" Waited a long time? ”

Xiao Xiao shook her head, "I just arrived." I was wondering what to do with the guards so they could let me in. ”

Hearing this, Shen Zhongkun took a token from his waist and handed it to Xiao Xiao, "You take this, just show them when you come back in the future, you don't have to say anything, naturally no one will snub you." ”

Xiao Xiao took the token, it was heavy and golden, it looked like it was made of pure gold, with "Prince Order" written on the front and dragon and phoenix engraved on the back.

"I'm afraid that when people see me holding this thing, they think it's stealing, and they will arrest me." Xiao Xiao said and handed it back to Shen Zhongkun.

Shen Zhongkun didn't answer, and smiled, "No one dares to steal me yet." I haven't introduced it to you yet, this is the third son of Lord Shangshu, Liu Ziqian. This girl is a friend of this king, Xiao Xiao. ”

Liu Ziqian stepped forward half a step forward and gave Xiao Xiao a gentleman's salute, Xiao Xiao smiled and nodded in response. "Since you have friends, I won't bother."

"Don't get in the way, Brother Ziqian and I often meet, and we talk about things above board, so we don't need to be taboo." Saying that he had already walked towards the door of the mansion, Liu Ziqian made a gesture of taking the lead to Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao had no choice but to smile slightly and follow Shen Zhongkun, and put the prince order into his bag.
