Chapter 17 King and Princess Yi II

After Guicheng listened to Gao Huaiyuan's words, for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of peace of mind in his heart, and his confidence suddenly became full, and he took a deep breath and said: "What the eldest brother said is that this matter was originally his fault for Xiao Liang, how could I be afraid of him as a little guard?" You wait here, I'll go to the inner house first and ask to see my mother!" He has now changed his name to Princess Yi and called her his mother.

Gao Huaiyuan nodded, reached over and patted Guicheng's arm as a sign of encouragement, this is the first test you accept, I hope you can be stronger!

Guicheng nodded, straightened his waist, strode towards the door, and greeted the guards and servants who were present at the time, and walked towards the inner house.

And at this time, in the inner house, he has also gotten the news, after all, people like Xiao Liang have been on an errand in the palace for many years, how can there be two good people around, when he sees Xiao Liang, he is afraid that he will suffer, so the first thing his cronies think of is to run to the inner house to deliver the letter, so that the princess in the inner house can come forward to protect Xiao Liang.

The princess is now in her fifties, since the death of King Yi Zhao Shan, she has lived in the palace of the king of Yi, over the years, guarding her son Zhao Guihe is now the crown prince Zhao Hong, to this time, now she sees her son Zhao Hong being established as the prince, and her mood is also very good, she feels that although she can't be the queen in this life, at least her son can be the emperor, which is also a good ending, after all, she will become a generation of queen mothers, although nominally she can only be a princess, can't replace the status and status of today's Empress Yang, but her son Zhao Hong will definitely not forget his mother.

In the past two years, since King Yi was established as the crown prince, he moved to live in the prince's mansion in Long Live Lane, making her, an old man, feel a little lonely, but in the past six months, the saint has set up a stepson for her deceased husband, Guicheng moved into her palace, which has somewhat relieved her of some loneliness, but the princess does not like this Guicheng, because she always feels that the appearance of Guicheng may affect the status of her son Zhao Hong, but if you think about it carefully, you don't think it will be, after all, Guicheng is just a very remote branch of the royal family. How could it affect the status of Zhao Hong, the nephew of today's saint?

So she silently accepted the fact at present, and deserved to have an extra son! On weekdays, this Guicheng is also sensible, and he will go to the inner mansion every day to greet her and talk to her, which can be regarded as filial piety, so her attitude towards Guicheng at these times is also much better.

But after hearing about this today, the princess couldn't help but be surprised, she was very familiar with this Xiao Liang, after all, Xiao Liang had been on an errand in the Yiwang Mansion for many years, but today he was injured by a new servant by Guicheng's side, and Guicheng also tied him up and wanted to punish him, so when the princess heard it, she was very unhappy in her heart.

Just as the princess was about to send someone to find Guicheng to come to interrogate, and by the way to intercede for Xiao Liang, the maidservant girl outside came in and said that Guicheng was asking to see him outside the inner mansion.

"Xuan Guicheng came in to see the old man!" The princess, who was feeling unhappy, nodded and ordered, and said in her heart that Cao had arrived! I want to hear how you explain it to me!

After a while, Guicheng walked quickly to the lobby of the back house, looked up and saw the princess sitting on a chair, hurriedly walked a few steps, came to the princess, knelt down and said, "Er Guicheng greets the concubine!" ”

After the princess saw Guicheng, the unhappiness on her face was slightly put away, but she immediately said to Guicheng: "Guicheng is not polite, get up and speak!" You're here just in time, and I'm looking for you for something! The old man just heard that a new attendant by your side injured Mr. Xiao this morning, but you also tied up Mr. Xiao and said that you would punish him! But is there such a thing? ”

As soon as Guicheng heard it, he knew which damn bastard ran here first and sued him and Gao Huaiyuan, and he also saw the princess's unhappiness, and knew that the person who reported the news must be the wicked person who sued first, and said that he and Gao Huaiyuan were not, so after taking a deep breath to stabilize his emotions, he nodded and said, "Back to the words of the concubine!" Indeed! ”

When the princess heard this, she immediately became a little furious, the phoenix crown trembled slightly, her hand slapped on the chair's deputy hand, and raised her voice: "Bold maniac!" Your servant doesn't know the rules, this is the palace, not the market, how long has he been here, and he dares to commit murder in the palace, how can this be reasonable, Guicheng! This is your fault, since your attendant General Xiao was injured, not only did you not punish him, but tied up Manager Xiao back, how can you do such a thing? Don't hurry up and release Chief Xiao and hand over your attendant to Lin'an Mansion for investigation! ”

When Guicheng heard this, this is good, the princess is gullible in other people's words, and blames Gao Huaiyuan and him for the matter, so he also has a trace of anger, but he restrained his emotions, thought of Zheng Qingzhi and Gao Huaiyuan's explanation, straightened his chest, hugged his fists and said to the princess: "The mother concubine is angry, the mother obviously listened to the villain's instigation in this matter, but she only knows one and doesn't know the other, can you listen to the details of the incident to the mother concubine, and the mother concubine will not be too late to make a decision?" ”

The princess only cared about maintaining Xiao Liang at this time, thinking that if she reprimanded Guicheng, with Guicheng's identity and character, she would definitely do what she said, but she didn't expect Guicheng to be surprisingly calm today, and she wanted to refute it, so she thought that since this incident happened, it would not be without a little reason, and listen to what Guicheng had to say first!

"Oh? Could it be that there is another hidden reason for this? Well, let's listen to you for details! ”

After Guicheng got the permission of the princess, he told the princess what happened this morning, and then told the princess that the guards and servants of the outer house who were present this morning were now waiting outside the gate of the inner mansion, waiting for the princess to summon them, and they could all prove that what he said today was not half a lie, and I hope the princess can deal with it impartially!

After the princess heard what Guicheng said, her mind began to liven, knowing that she was a little too impatient when she was angry just now, Xiao Liang is an old man in the house, but this incident will not happen for no reason, she was in a hurry just now, and she seemed to be a little biased.

So after the princess pondered for a while, she agreed to summon those guards and servants, and after a while, Tian Katsuji took a few guards and servants into the inner palace and knelt in front of the princess.
