Chapter 017: The Truth
Before leaving the West Building, Zheng Hao inadvertently saw that Yang Huaixin was holding something in his palm.
It looks familiar, like ...... The sheep's horn hairpin on He Quanhao's head. He stared at it twice, and knew in his heart: it was really not simple, it was not a sheep's horn hairpin, but a sheep's horn dagger.
That's why He Quanhao is wearing a cloak.
Everyone who enters the inner palace must unload their weapons, and he actually has the courage to bring the dagger into the palace as a hairpin.
Zheng Hao couldn't guess the truth. Because since he met the princess, he found that the experience given to him in his previous life was getting weaker and weaker, and he even wondered, is this because he is getting closer and closer to the death period of his previous life?
Li Xuan'er took her mother back to the Mingyi Palace.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jieyu and the Nine Emperor Princes were already waiting for her in the Mingyi Palace.
"Jiulang, go and kowtow to Concubine Chao, thank your eldest sister for saving our mother and son."
Li Xiao lifted his robe, kowtowed to Chao Meiren in a decent manner, got up and waved the eldest sister again: "Eldest sister, Xiao'er doesn't dare anymore, the eldest sister is dedicated to the good of our mother and son, and Xiao'er will listen to the eldest sister in the future." ”
Li Xuan'er saw that her mother looked puzzled, so she smiled and asked her mother and Concubine Liu to sit down, and told her mother what happened on the west floor today.
Liu Jieyu was instructed by Lu Min and went downstairs to find the Nine Emperor Princes, and happened to meet the Eighth Prince and the Nine Emperor Princes, who were pestering He Quanhao for betel nut.
"Finished eating all of you just now? I don't believe it. ”
The Eighth Prince grinned and said, "It's not the first time we've tasted it, at first we thought it was too unpalatable, and when we put it in our mouths, we spit it out, but now that we taste it, we think it's wonderful, and I want to taste it again." ”
He Quanhao glanced at the two princes with disdain: The fledglings raised in the palace still want to rule the world in the future? He took out two betel nuts from his bosom and handed them to them.
When he was on the betel nut just now, Gonggong Yang gave him some more, and said with a smile: "General He, your health is healthy?" The military salary allocated by the Northern Division to Wei Bojun last month still satisfied the general and major general? ”
General He Shao is not a fool, and when he saw Yang Gonggong, the privy envoy, he suddenly mentioned his friendship with them, and immediately replied:
"My father is all right, and I have a memory of my father-in-law. If your father-in-law has something to say, please speak. ”
"It's not a big deal. The Nine Emperors asked the old minister for betel nut, but the old minister didn't dare to give it, one was the saint, the other was the prince, and we as ministers didn't dare to offend ......"
This is really not a big deal, He Quanhao understood it and agreed.
"A few little princes are playing under the west building. Lao Chen...... But I don't know anything. Yang Xuanyuan bowed down and walked away with a smile.
After drinking the medicinal wine peach blossom brew, coupled with the catalysis of betel nut, when He Quanhao saw Liu Jieyu, it was like seeing a stunning beauty, hot-headed, where can I think about whether to start?
He stuffed all the betel nuts in his hand into Jiulang's hand, and was about to pull Liu Jieyu: "This lady is so good-looking, have you met this general and you anywhere?" ”
"Let her go! She's my mother! Seeing that it was wrong, the Nine Emperor Princes threw all the betel nuts in their hands on He Quanhao and roared loudly.
Li Xuan'er, who was pretending to be asleep behind the screen, heard Jiulang's cry, her heart was not good, and she couldn't care about Lu Min, who was sitting outside, so she lifted her skirt and rushed downstairs.
Not far away by the stairs, it is not that there are no guards, but Ma Yuanzhen has explained that the nobles don't care about whatever happens.
Lu Min was startled when she saw someone rushing out of the screen, and recognized it as the princess, and she also ran downstairs. When she rushed over, the princess had already pointed at He Quanhao's nose and scolded:
"Presumptuous! Adjutant Ho, open your dog's eyes and see who you are arresting? My father allowed you to go crazy in the main hall, but the harem didn't allow you to go crazy! ”
He Quanhao was red from his face to his neck, and when he heard the word "harem", he stumbled under his feet, let go of Liu Jieyu, staggered to Hachiro and Jiulang, and said vaguely:
"I'm here to deliver betel nuts to the Nine Emperor Princes, and the Nine Emperor Princes want to eat betel nuts......"
The princess took the lead in front of her brother and shouted, "Nonsense! How can children eat betel nut? It's clear that you're quibbling. Concubine Liu, take my two younger brothers away, don't let the drunk rush into them. ”
Liu Jieyu reacted from the fright, and hurriedly pulled Hachiro and Jiulang to leave in a hurry.
He Quanhao shook his head, but he was even more dizzy, knowing that there was a woman in front of him, he just wanted to catch a woman and solve it on the spot, so that his beating heart could be calmed.
Liu Jieyu's mother and son left, and the elder brother did not come to the apse, but it was this arrogant and domineering General He Shao who came. But Li Xuan'er didn't want to clean him up today, she wasn't ready yet.
If she is reckless and reckless just to vent her anger, then she will live in vain. The only thing she wondered was, who did He Quanhao come for?
She glanced at Lu Min out of the corner of her eye, and said deliberately:
"General He asked for marriage in the palace in public just now, didn't he come to the apse to find Mrs. Lu? It's shameless to use my brother, who is a few years old, as an excuse. ”
He Quanhao saw that there was a woman behind the princess, he staggered over, and said with a smile: "Who is General Ben looking for, and he still needs to make excuses?" Joke ......"
A figure flickered, and Yang Huaixin stood in front of He Quanhao. His cronies just ran to report to him and asked him: Vice General He did not break into the apse, but he was bullying the princess, should he be arrested?
Yang Huaixin hated him so much that he didn't care about kicking him, and he didn't care about the "release" order of his father-in-law and General Ma, so he rushed to the West Building.
Seeing He Quanhao walking towards the princess from a distance, he didn't care so much, rushed over to block in front of He Quanhao, supported his shoulder with his left hand, and said coldly:
"General He, please respect yourself, this is Daming Palace, not your Weibo Town."
He Quanhao wanted to push him away from his hand, and pushed it twice, only to find that the hand of the servant was trapped like an iron tong, and he didn't move at all.
He smiled drunken and said, "Why, could it be that the Holy Lord invited General Ben to Daming Palace as a guest, you dare to ...... Blocking General Ben's way? If you don't take your claws away, don't blame General Ben for treating you as a criminal and dealing with it by military law! ”
He Quanhao is bold because the three towns of Hebei, including Weibo Town, have always been independent and autonomous feudal towns, and they do not pay taxes to the imperial court, but they still have to take military salaries from the imperial court as a condition for them to abide by their duties and not make trouble.
The three towns echoed from end to end, with 300,000 troops, while the other feudal towns often had less than half of their troops. Not to mention that they have been self-governing by force for many years, and their individual force is much stronger than the forbidden army that rarely has military training.
clashed with him, and the last person to be punished must be Yang Huaixin.
Li Xuan'er didn't want to see the people who defended her suffer, she smiled slightly, stepped forward and said, "Let him go." ”
Yang Huaixin hesitantly let go of his hand.
"That's right! Or the little beauty is considerate......"
He Quanwan was drunk and squinted.
Yang Huaixin gritted his teeth and was about to push him away again, only to see Li Xuan'er pull out the horn dagger on He Quanhao's head and stuff it in his hand with lightning speed.
Li Xuan'er clapped her hands and smiled:
"Adjutant General Yang, now you can arrest him. This person was drunk and held the princess hostage with a knife, and wanted to break into the inner palace to commit murder, even if his father came, he was unforgivable. ”
Yang Huaixin saw that the princess stuffed the dagger in He Quanhao's hand, he had already done it, and when the princess finished speaking, He Quanhao had been subdued by him, snatched the dagger, and cut his hands behind his back:
The princess is so powerful, I didn't even see that it was a sheep's horn dagger disguised as a hairpin.
