The court of Chu did not say anything about the beating of the prince yesterday, and early the next morning, a guard came to report that someone from the East Palace came.

The East Palace is where the prince's power lies, and when Tang Ning came to a certain hall, Lu Teng was already inside.

Lu Teng pointed to the official of the prince's mansion and introduced, "This is the crown prince Zhan Shi, Lord Wang." ”

Tang Ning arched his hand and said, "I don't know what happened to Wang Zhan here, what happened?" ”

Prince Zhan Shi looked at him and said, "Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was beaten by thugs in the Splendid Palace, and the Prince's Mansion hopes that the two adults can hand over the villains led by him and let the Prince's Mansion deal with them." ”

The young general standing behind Lu Teng's body trembled.

Tang Ning looked at the crown prince Zhan Shi and asked, "Is this the meaning of your imperial court, or the meaning of the East Palace?" ”

Prince Zhan Shi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there a difference?" ”

Tang Ning looked at him, suddenly smiled, and said: "It's really unfortunate, after knowing that yesterday's assassin turned out to be the crown prince, we have already severely punished him and asked him to pack up his things and go back, Wang Zhan is a step late." ”

Prince Zhan Shi looked at him, narrowed his eyes and said, "Beating the prince is a serious crime, I hope your envoy can understand." ”

Tang Ning said: "So we severely punished him and let him go back." ”

Prince Zhan Shi's eyes narrowed even more, revealing a fierce light from the narrow gap.

Tang Ning looked at him and said in surprise: "Is Wang Zhan sleepy, if he is sleepy, go back and rest early." ”

"You ......"

Prince Zhan Shi stretched out his finger and pointed at him, and finally just waved his sleeves and strode away.

The prince's mansion and the imperial court are naturally incomparable, if these envoys of the Chen State are unwilling to hand over people, they are not good at using any tough means, even if the reason used by the other party to prevaricate is too casual, he can only temporarily suppress his anger.

After Prince Zhan Shi left, the young general behind Lu Teng immediately stood up, bowed down and said, "Subordinate Chen Zhou, thank you Lord Tang!" ”

"You're welcome, your every move here is related to Chen Guo's face, so naturally I can't hand you over." Tang Ning patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you have time, teach me how to tie the rope last time......"

Lu Teng's subordinate, although his name is not very auspicious, he does have a bit of craftsmanship.

"I'll go see the princess." He said a word to Lu Teng and walked out of the hall.

Yesterday I promised Zhao Man to fish, but unfortunately there are no fish in the lake of this Splendid Palace, so I happen to be fine today, I can take her out to breathe.

She helped Zhao Man paint her makeup, she changed into the palace maid's clothes, and walked out of the dormitory with a swagger.

At the door, a young general named Chen Zhou raised his head and took a look, his eyes immediately widened, he quickly stood up, bowed and said, "Gong ......"

Lu Teng's gaze looked over, Chen Zhou looked at Tang Ning, then at Zhao Man, and said loudly: "......, send Lord Tang ......"

Walking out of the Splendid Palace, Zhao Mancai patted his chest and said, "I think he seems to have recognized me just now." ”

Tang Ning looked at her, today is in a hurry, her makeup has indeed changed little, but generally no one will look at her face, anyway, it has already come out, and there is no need to go back.

However, this is the State of Chu, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no people with ulterior motives around the Splendid Palace, Lao Zheng left, just in case, Tang Ning still brought a few elite disciples of the beggar gang.

Yesterday, he was deceived by that lady and ran all over half of Kyoto, Tang Ning also knew where there was a river, and Zhao Man brought a fishing rod and found a suitable location for fishing.

They weren't the only ones fishing here, and the best spot was occupied, a middle-aged man dressed in a Confucian shirt and holding a fishing rod in his hand, looking calm and relaxed.

Tang Ning and Zhao Man passed by him and saw that there were already a few small fish in a jar beside him.

This shows that there are fish to catch here, Tang Ning made a nest here and threw off the hook, so he and Zhao Man sat on the stone and waited for the fish to bite the hook.

It's a pity that their luck is not very good today, since they sat down, the middle-aged man has already caught three in a row, and he and Zhao Man haven't even caught one.

After the middle-aged man caught another one, he looked over and said, "Young man, there are no fish in that place, so you should come here." ”

"Thank you."

The middle-aged man seemed to be very familiar with this water, and should have been fishing here a lot, Tang Ning and Zhao Man moved to his place, and soon she caught the first small fish with the size of a palm.

Zhao Man said happily: "I caught it before you!" ”

"You're amazing, you're amazing......" Tang Ning helped her take the fish off the hook and said, "Be quiet, don't make noise about people fishing." ”

"It's okay, I'm going back too." The middle-aged man poured all the fish in the jar into the river, put away the fishing rod, slowly wound the line, and said casually: "I have been fishing here for many years, and it is the first time I have met a young man like you. ”

Tang Ning shook his head and asked, "Why can't young people have leisure?" ”

Middle-aged humanitarian: "Young people should take reading books to serve the country as their own responsibility, books of sages as entertainment, and poetry and articles as pleasure, how can they waste time on these pastimes?" ”

Tang Ning lifted the fishing rod, took off a small fish from the hook, and said: "Young people may not all like to read, not everyone loves poetry and articles, everyone has the right to choose, if you can't even choose what to enjoy, even being an emperor is not good." ”

The middle-aged man put away the fishing rod, stood up, and asked, "Young man, do you know how good it is to be an emperor, above ten million people, what can't you choose by yourself?" ”

Tang Ning threw down the hook and asked, "When the emperor wants to fish, can he sit here and fish?" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he was stunned at first, then looked at him with a strange gaze, nodded and said, "Yes, the emperor can do a lot of things, but it is impossible to sit here and fish like you." ”

I don't know if it's because the middle-aged man just released a lot of fish, Tang Ning just threw off the hook, and the fishing rod trembled.

This time, though, instead of paying attention to the rod, he stood up, turned around, and looked to the shore.

A dozen paces away from them, several figures appeared shrouded in cloaks.

Several people with weapons in their hands were rushing towards the river.

Tang Ning's first thought was that someone wanted to assassinate Zhao Man, the water in this Chu country was really deep, the prince and grandmother didn't love his uncle, and no one came out when he was beaten, and the day after the mission arrived, someone dared to assassinate the princess in the street......

He waved his hand, and the ten beggar gang disciples standing not far away stood in front of these people.

In an instant, they formed a formation and surrounded the men.

These disciples are the elite of the elite, they have been trained by the old beggar himself, and they are very extraordinary when they form a formation, and there are only five people on the other side, although their skills are not bad, but they are trapped in the formation, and they can only be beaten.

After a while, the five of them were knocked unconscious by the sticks in the hands of those disciples.

Not far away, there were already officials rushing over.

Zhao Man ran out secretly, and there would be trouble if they found out, Tang Ning threw down the fishing rod, grabbed her hand, and said, "Hurry up!" ”

The ten beggar disciples also left quickly, and more than a dozen officials ran over and took down the five who were lying on the ground and had passed out.

A man ran out of the crowd, ran in front of the middle-aged man, and asked, "Why did you come out alone again?" ”

The middle-aged man handed him the fishing rod and said, "With you here, the fish are scared away, what am I fishing?" ”

The man frowned and said, "But it's too dangerous!" ”

"Isn't that nothing?" The middle-aged man clapped his hands, looked at the direction in which Tang Ning and Zhao Man had disappeared, and said, "Go back, don't tell the county lord and princess about today's matter." ”

The man looked in the other direction and said, "The county lord already knows. ”

The woman in white walked over from the crowd, looked at the middle-aged man, and said, "If you want to fish next time, don't come out alone, I'll accompany you." ”

"Okay, good, Lan Lan is whatever he says...... the middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "You are late this time, just now I met a young man who likes fishing as much as you......"
