Chapter 191: My sister is back
After waiting for most of the day, I didn't see the maid fetching hot water back, but I heard the maidservant and people arguing. Tana hurried out, and saw her two handmaidens arguing with the two soldiers.
Tana hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "Tell you to go and fetch water, what are you arguing with others here?" ”
As soon as the two maidservants saw her, they hurried over and explained, "Princess, it's not that we are quarrelling, it's that they are looking for trouble. I said that the princess wanted to take a hot bath, but they said no, what else did they say, why do they wash so clean? Do you want to seduce the emperor? And scolding you for ....... ”
"What is it?" Tana's face sank and she asked sharply.
The two maidservants were startled, looked at Tana's gloomy face, lowered their heads and moved their lips, and said like a mosquito and fly for a long time: "They scolded you for being a demon girl, a vixen, and went specifically to seduce the emperor." ”
After hearing this, Tana's eyes breathed fire, and she shouted at the two soldiers, "Your eye saw me seducing the emperor's brother." I won't make it clear today, I'm not done with you. ”
The two soldiers sneered: "You didn't go to seduce the emperor, then why did the emperor just come back from his inspection, and you ran to his dragon tent?" The phoenix tent where the queen lived here, you don't want to replace it, why do you want the magpie's nest dove to occupy and live in the phoenix tent? He also said that he was not a vixen, who would believe it? ”
"This ...... How do I know that this is the phoenix tent where the queen lives and your general arranged for me to live here. I really didn't seduce the emperor's brother. Tana hurriedly explained.
The two soldiers were willing to believe it, and said coldly: "If you don't want to seduce the emperor, then why are you not in your own house, why did you follow the emperor to Chu State?" is relying on his youth and beauty, bullying the queen's mother with red face and white hair, wanting to serve the king with color and compete for favor with the mother! ”
"I'm not, I don't want to serve the king in Israel, and I don't compete with my mother for favor." Tana's face was pale, her confidence was lacking, and her voice became quieter and quieter. In the end, I'm afraid she is the only one who can hear it.
Seeing that their princess had been wronged, the two maidservants hurriedly ran to Jun Mowen's tent and stammered: "Your Majesty, the princess has been bullied, go and take a look!" ”
"What? Who dares to bully the princess. Jun Mo asked Huo Ran to get up, strode to Tana's tent, and saw Tana's pale face from a distance, unable to explain.
A few soldiers next to her, you and I scolded her for being a demon girl, a fox spirit. ”
As soon as Jun Mowen saw this scene, he suddenly understood in his heart that it turned out that these soldiers had served Zhong Lichun, followed her for a while, misunderstood Tana, and fought for the queen's mother.
Jun Mowen was angry and funny in his heart. He shouted, "What are you doing here? ”
As soon as several soldiers saw the emperor coming, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed their heads and remained silent.
As soon as Tana saw Jun Mo asking, she immediately ran over and wanted to pounce into his arms, but suddenly saw a soldier staring at her fiercely, hurriedly stopped, and smiled bitterly, "Brother Emperor, you see that they have misunderstood, what should I do!" ”
Jun Mo asked to take out the Jinpa, wiped the tears on her face and said, "It's okay, I'll tell them." ”
At this time, Zhang Shaoqing also heard the report, hurried over, and saluted Jun Mo, "The emperor forgives the sin, it is the minister who did not think it through, wronged the princess, please forgive the princess." ”
Tana looked at the soldier kneeling on the ground, and tears broke down in her heart. She asked Jun Mo with a blank look: "Brother Emperor, you quickly explain to them." ”
A soldier next to her looked up and stared at her fiercely, "Vixen, explain what?" If you want to find Your Majesty to support you, you just have an embroidered pillow, and you don't deserve to carry shoes for the queen's mother. ”
"Shut up, Princess Tanaqige is the pearl of the grassland and my benefactor, if you dare to be disrespectful to her, you are disrespectful to me, so don't go and ask the princess for sin." Jun Mo asked and shouted.
"I stand up to the heavens and the earth as a man, kneel down to the heavens and the earth, kneel down to my parents and kings, why do I kneel to her? If the emperor wants me to kneel to the demon girl, would I rather die? ”
"Okay, there is backbone, but it's a pity that it's used in the wrong place. You keep scolding him for being a witch vixen. I just thought that she came back with me, just like other women, and wanted to be my concubine. You say, "Am I right?" ”
"Isn't that so?"
"You are wrong, and you are very wrong, I don't need to explain to you, I can directly arrest you and sentence you for a great crime of disrespect. But for the sake of your loyalty to the Queen. I might as well explain that Princess Tana is my sister-in-law, and she deceived me into getting the Soul Restoration Grass from his father in order to help me get the Soul Restoration Grass. That's why I have to go back to Chu with me to live for a while and then go back, so she is not a fox spirit, she is a great benefactor of me and the queen, and the queen mother you are loyal to is also very likely to recover her previous appearance because of the soul rejuvenation grass, and she will not be as gray-haired as she is now. Tell me for yourself, how to be disrespectful to the benefactor of the queen's mother! ”
"Really? The emperor and her have no daughter's love? ”
It's true, it's true, the princess and I only have a brother-sister friendship, and we don't have a daughter's personal relationship. Jun Mo asked with a frank face.
The soldier stood up and knelt down in front of Tana with a plop, "The villain has no eyes, offending the princess, please punish the princess!" ”
Tana was taken aback by his actions, and asked Jun Mo: "Brother Emperor, forget it after the matter is explained clearly, and if you read him loyalty, you will be exempted from the crime of great disrespect!" ”
"How can it be, if the law is not correct, how can the discipline be clear, the law is not good, how can the world be governed. Please condemn the emperor! ”
Jun Mo asked, his eyes lit up, good one, the law is not correct, why is the discipline clear, the law is not good, how can the world be governed. What a rare talent. Then his face sank, "What's your name, then tell me yourself, how should I punish you?" ”
"Your Majesty, the villain's surname is full, and his name is legal, and his father often says that the law is the first to discipline oneself and the one is to be right. named the villain Luzheng. ”
"Okay, Manluzheng, then what crime do you condemn yourself and what punishment should you receive?"
"I don't distinguish between right and wrong, slander the princess, disrespect the emperor, two crimes are punished together, and they should be beheaded."
"Hmmm! It seems that you are still familiar with the law, why did you come to be a soldier? ”
"The villain's father was originally a county magistrate, but because he was implicated in the case of the regent, he died of illness in prison, and there was no one in the villain's family, so he wanted to put pen to paper and serve the country."
"Okay, in that case, I remember that you are loyal to the queen, the death penalty is temporarily exempted, you will be whipped a hundred, and after the injury is healed, you will report to the criminal department."
"No, Your Majesty, a hundred whips are too light to convince the public, please whip two hundred."
"Man Luzheng, do you know that if you go down with two hundred lashes, it will be difficult to survive nine times out of ten?"
"The villain knows, but the law is not merciful, even if the emperor is extrajudicial and gracious, the villain can't let himself go. Otherwise, how will it be enforced in the future? ”
"That's right, but after two hundred lashes, my life is gone, how can I take charge of the criminal law for me, so be it! First give 100 lashes, and then 100 lashes after taking up a post in the Criminal Department, so as to warn yourself not to be reckless in the future, and you must be cautious. Once the pen is written, human life is at stake. ”
"The villain obeys the emperor's teachings!" Manyu bowed respectfully to Tana three times, took off his clothes, and waited for the execution.
When Zhang Shaoqing saw him like this, he also secretly praised him, what a person who is upright and strict in law enforcement. A person who is ruthless to himself will definitely not bend the law for personal gain when he handles a case.
Tana saw his beaten flesh flying, dripping with blood, and closed her eyes in fright. Quickly ran back to his tent and hid.
Jun Mo asked that after his execution was completed, he ordered the military doctor to heal him. and then returned to his account.
Zhang Shaoqing transferred several other soldiers to his side, preparing to bring them back to the palace as guards in the future.
The next morning, I set off for Beijing and plunged into the pile. It took several days to complete the handling of government affairs. went to Feng'an Palace, looking at the empty palace, it became deserted because the master was not there. He was lying on the phoenix couch, smelling the familiar smell of her body still lingering in the brocade quilt, and couldn't help but miss it very much. I don't know how she is doing in Qi Country, but she is still fine, and I can't help but want to go to Qi Country to find her. Remembering that he had only been back for a few days, he immediately went out again, and felt a little inappropriate. I had to put down my temperament and count my fingers to live.
And after Zhong Lichun, who was still in Qi Kingdom, arrived in Linzi, he first found an inn to live in, and ordered Bai Sha to go out to inquire about the situation. Bai Sha went out and came back to report, "Tian Yujiang is terminally ill, and the crown prince Tian Ning is dealing with government affairs."
Zhong Lichun was silent for a long time, wrote a letter, and ordered Bai Sha to send it to the general Xu Wennuo and asked him to forward it to Tian Ning.
When Xu Wennuo received the letter, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly entered the palace and forwarded it to the crown prince Tian Ning.
Tian Ning took the letter and opened it, and jumped three feet high happily, "My sister came back to see me, she really didn't break her promise, she is there, go and invite her into the palace." ”
Xu Wennuo looked at Tian Ning's excited appearance, and couldn't help but sigh, this is like a child, he usually sees him with a serious face, looking like a young man, and his heart aches for him. If it weren't for the queen's early death, why would he have to bear so much!
Tian Ning saw that Xu Wennuo was stunned and didn't move, and said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you hear what this king said?" ”
Xu Wennuo nodded hurriedly, "The minister will immediately go and pick her up into the palace to reunite with His Highness." ”
"Go, go back, go directly to Fengwu Palace, what is the king waiting for?" Tian Ning saw Xu Wennuo and went down to pick up people. Only then did he come to Fengwu Palace happily and shouted to Wang Guifei: "Mother, mother, there is good news." ”
"What's the good news that makes Ning'er so happy?" Wang Jinxian asked with a smile.
"Mother, my sister has come back to see me." Tian Ning raised the letter in his hand.
"Who, what did you just say?" Wang Jinxian asked again.
"Mother, look at the letter written by my sister." Tian Ning respectfully handed the letter to his mother.
Wang Jinxian took it and looked at it, and stood up suddenly. "My sister is really back, she's there, hurry up and please."
Erchen, I have ordered Xu Wennuo to take my sister into the palace. The concubine waited a while. ”
"Good, good, good, so good, after all these years, she finally came back to see us." Wang Jinxian couldn't sit happily and walked back and forth in the room.
Tian Ning also ran to the gate of Fengwu Palace excitedly and waited. Xu Wennuo ordered someone to carry Zhong Lichun directly to Fengwu Palace.
