Chapter 15: Beauty Comes Out of the Bath
Listening to the words of the man in the lead, Dawn just smiled indifferently and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, like Miss Ben, only came back from Huguo Temple this morning, and you met the assassin immediately in the evening. Could it be that General, do you suspect that the Assassin has anything to do with me, or even with our General's Mansion? Good manner, why did my father send someone to assassinate the prince, do you think my father wants to rebel? ”
Zhou Shichong didn't say a word, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Sikong Liang, who came in after him: "General Mingjian, the last general definitely doesn't mean this." ”
At this time, Zhou Shichong hung his head and was in cold sweat on his forehead, how could he have the arrogant and domineering appearance just now?
The emperor and the general are not harmonious, but this news can only be known by a few important ministers of the court, in the eyes of ordinary people, Sikong Liang is still the marshal of soldiers and horses who holds a large army and is a very human minister, even if he is angry and kills one or two generals like Zhou Shichong, I am afraid that the emperor will not blame.
Rebellion is a great crime to exterminate the nine clans, who dares to casually pour dirty water on the general? Zhou Shichong didn't expect that Miss Sikong Er was so bold that she could easily say such a thing, and she was heard by the general by chance, and she immediately became frightened.
Twenty years ago, Sikong Liang had already become famous, and now although he is old, his majesty has not diminished, not to mention Zhou Shichong, and the combined number of commanders of the forbidden army are not necessarily his opponents.
After finishing speaking, Zhou Shichong turned around and kowtowed to Sikong Xiaoxiao again: "Second Miss forgive her sins, the last general will definitely not mean this." ”
He can see that this second young lady is only afraid that she is more difficult than the straightforward general.
At first, Sikong Liang was indeed moved, and when he returned to Beijing this time, he already clearly felt that the emperor's trust in him was not as good as before. If something happens again, it will reach the ears of the suspicious Son of Heaven, and I am afraid that there will be something more.
Lian is quite old, Sikong Liang has been guarding the border all these years, in fact, he also has some meaning of staying away from right and wrong, but he didn't expect it to be like this, the emperor is no longer the good brother who could eat and drink together with him. is full of courtiers and villains, and it's not interesting to continue to stay in the court.
Sikong Liang is not the kind of man who only seeks power, and when he gets power, he doesn't want to let go no matter what, things have come to this point, he wants to take off his armor and return to the field to retire.
That's why I don't want to have a head-on confrontation with that person. He wants to retire, so why bother with this last moment? It's just that he didn't expect that it was his daughter who was tougher than him, the second Miss Sikong who had always been considered arrogant and willful and liked to make trouble unreasonably.
And seeing the appearance of dawn at this moment, it is obvious. She was just bathing. It's no wonder that those maids and mothers-in-law have repeatedly blocked them, how can a young lady come out to meet people?
He, a father, is not even as good as his younger brother, so he let it go and let his daughter be wronged.
Immediately felt a little sad in his heart, Sikong Liang glared at Zhou Shichong fiercely, but turned his head to smile softly at Dawn: "Girl, good, you weren't frightened, right?" Don't worry, this adult is just a routine, and it's over. I will tell him to kneel and plead for you. ”
As soon as he said this, Zhou Shichong was annoyed on his face, but he could only attack in his heart. Hmph, old don't cultivate, you love your daughter, wait until you really find the assassin, see how you explain it to me.
Sikong Xiaoxiao ignored the man, just turned to the side slightly, and said lightly: "If you really want to search, go in and search." But the ugly words Miss Ben said ahead, this general, you just promised, if you really can't find anything. Even if it gets to His Majesty the Emperor, I believe that my father will seek justice for me. ”
The words were said to him, but the person did not look at his side, Zhou Shichong's face froze, but he really hesitated.
Look at the appearance of Miss Sikong Er, that upright and generous appearance. It seemed that they were not afraid of them going in and searching, and the reason why her men were angry and angry was only to blame him for his recklessness, and should not have broken into the young lady's boudoir.
Now seeing the second lady like this, Zhou Shichong also understands that if the female dependents in his house are disturbed by outsiders and a group of men while bathing, he will also be angry.
If nothing is really found, let alone this second Miss Sikong who has a bad temper, even if it is a general, I am afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around.
was hesitating, but suddenly heard an angry shout ringing in his ears: "Bastard, aren't you going to go in and search, and keep saying that there are assassins in my house?" Go, I've been on the field for many years, and when I fought the world with the emperor, I was still playing in open crotch pants. Now, it has bullied me, and tomorrow I will go to the palace to ask Your Majesty, do you think that you don't need me as a martial artist in this peaceful and prosperous world, and you can let you and others be bullied like this. ”
Originally, Sikong Liang wanted to calm things down, but he didn't expect that after these people entered the mansion, they were bullied by Dawn. It was the baby bump that he had put in the palm of his hand that hurt him for all these years, but he was bullied by these stinky men, how could he swallow this breath?
Anyway, I have to seek justice for my daughter.
The general's words really went to Zhou Shichong's heart, his action tonight was to use chicken feathers as an arrow, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invited the emperor's holy decree to search the whole city, but it was not aimed at the general's mansion.
If he really gets into trouble with the emperor, he won't be able to please him at all.
If the rumors are true, no matter whether Miss Sikong Er will eventually marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as a side concubine or marry the third prince, her identity is destined to be superior.
And tonight he made such a fuss...... Thinking of this, not only was there a cold sweat on his forehead, but his whole body was almost soaked with sweat, Zhou Shichong only felt that he was in a dire straits now, in a dilemma.
No wonder the Lord told him to do this, it was not a good errand at all. Now, it's better not to offend the general and the second lady.
Immediately, he stood obediently to the side with his hands down, and showed a slightly flattering smile at Sikong Liang: "General, where are you talking about, this is all a misunderstanding...... Misunderstanding, don't be angry, the last general will only lead the troops here after listening to the instructions of his subordinates, we are just doing things for the emperor. ”
"The general's loyalty to the monarch is well known to the country, how can he have anything to do with the assassins? It must be a false alarm, a false alarm," he said, turning back to the soldiers and saying, "Let me mix it all up." ”
Having said that, his eyes that looked like thieves were still peeking into the dawn room, and it was rare to come once, and he was really unwilling to return empty-handed like this.
Dawn sneered, but Jiumei didn't care about it, and began to do things in front of outsiders. There was already a rough envoy waiting to serve on the side, and the four of them carried the oversized bathtub out of the inner room again.
Not to mention Zhou Shichong, the officers and soldiers under him also had round eyes, and their mouths kept secreting all kinds of liquids. Oh my God, Miss Sikong Er was really bathing just now, and there were petals floating in the water with a faint fragrance.
At this moment, Zhou Shichong is not giving up.
Dawn secretly lowered his head and didn't speak, and Sikong Liang didn't pay attention to Zhou Shichong, but he glanced at the housekeeper next to him.
The butler was kicked by that man, and his chest still hurts faintly, if he hadn't helped the general with a breath, I'm afraid that he would have sent someone to ask for a doctor.
For these so-called people who came to search by order, they also held back their grievances and laughed evilly, but Fu Bo instructed the little servants who followed him: "Let the various stewards go separately to inquire if anyone is injured or if anything valuable has been damaged, especially to see if the lady and young lady have been disturbed." If you have damaged anything or anything in the house that needs to be touched, you will report it to me. ”
Speaking of which, he deliberately glanced at Zhou Shichong, and deliberately said these words in front of him.
Zhou Shichong's first thought was that the old guy dared to play with him like this, it was not enough, he just wanted to raise his foot and kick it again, and directly let the dead old man fly into the sky.
However, what he saw was Sikong Liang's eyes that were still full of anger, and the angry little flame in his heart was just like his previous hair, which was drenched on his head and face, and there was no spark.
was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat, and bowed directly to Sikong Liang and said: "General, the last general was also ordered by the prince to search, if there is any offense, I hope to forgive the sin." ”
After saying that, he didn't care about the reaction of the others, and regardless of the group of people under him, he strode away. As soon as he left, the group of officers and soldiers naturally followed.
Sikong Liang looked at the dawn with a smile, and was about to say something, but heard her say, "Father, it's not too early, please go back too." Early tomorrow morning, my daughter will go to greet you again. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and stepped into the room, Peony Jiumei was tightly guarding the door, like two door gods. No matter if Sikong Liang is the general, the real owner of the entire mansion, for them, the second lady is the one who should be served the most.
The smile on the general's face became a little bitter, this afternoon, because of his partiality towards the Jiang family, Dawn already had some opinions, plus tonight, he was obviously at home, but he indulged those people into the courtyard of the second lady, no matter what happened in the end, I am afraid that it will damage Dawn's reputation.
As a result, I felt more and more guilty in my heart.
After learning that the searched people had left the General's Mansion, Jiang took Wang's mother and hurried to the backyard, just to see Sikong Liang standing at the door of Dawn Garden with a wry smile. (To be continued.) )
