Chapter 1: Forced to swagger
In the imperial capital of Xicheng, on the corner of a small alley behind the downtown area, Tang Mengzheng pinched his fingers, rolled his eyes, and muttered something in his mouth, and then slapped his thigh violently, and smiled at the woman with a big belly opposite.
"Congratulations, this baby is a boy!"
"Really!" The woman was overjoyed, and she had to take out of her baggage.
Tang Meng hurriedly waved his hand, twisted a fake beard, and pretended to be profound, "The fetus is not born, and I don't collect cashiers, just send someone to send me the silver when his wife is happy with the noble son, I have been doing this business for more than ten years, and I can't run." ”
After that, he also pointed to the half of the signboard flag beside him, on which a few big characters were written like ghostly characters: "No money!" ’
The woman couldn't be happier, she came for this god sign, I heard that there are already several families who have called this Master Tang to calculate accurately, one spread ten to hundred, it is amazing.
Now I heard that I can't do without money, if I don't have some real skills, who would dare to say such a big thing!
The woman was reassured, and she was ready to go home and give birth to her son.
The woman here was busy thanking her, and before she finished her polite words, there was a commotion from the street, and the sound of weapons colliding rushed into the narrow alley in a blink of an eye, and the officers and soldiers surrounded Tang Meng solidly.
The sword was unsheathed, and the woman screamed and fell back into her chair.
The officer and soldier at the head were a big man, his eyes swept wide, and one finger was pointing directly at Tang Meng.
"Get this liar back! Idle people don't hurry up and get out! ”
"This official has something to say, I am doing some small business here, when have you deceived people, are you mistaken?" Tang Meng replied with a smile, and calmly helped the woman up and sent her out of the alley.
After making sure that she would not hurt the innocent, she rolled her eyes slyly, "Call me to go and ask questions, don't worry, just watch...... Can you catch me! ”
Before the words fell, he jumped onto the alley wall in three or two steps, his posture was as cool as a whirling blade in the wind, and he arrived at the end of the alley in a blink of an eye.
The big guy was frightened and led people to chase after him.
As he ran, he took out a small jade pendant from his arms and shouted, "If you run away again, he will die!" ”
Tang Meng turned his head and glanced at it, and was shocked, this is the cub's personal thing!
When she was escorted to the lobby of the Yamen in Xicheng, she saw the little cub who had been tied into a small zongzi.
The child was three or four years old, with a pair of big black eyes on his round little face, and he had no stage fright.
I heard that Lai Ming was easy to feed, and Tang Meng unceremoniously gave him a resounding milk name: cub!
When he saw Tang Meng coming, he turned his head and called sweetly.
"Mother!"
Tang Meng quipped, "This look is good, what did you do, why did you implicate me?" ”
"Didn't my mother cheat and be discovered?"
"Am I cheating? It's impossible, how can you be ...... with such a high rank?"
Smack!
The prefect slapped the shocked wood twice, "Why are you still talking, the emperor cheats, you are guilty!" ”
Tang Meng tilted his head, "The villain has never cheated, what is the crime, the adult must have made a mistake, right?" ”
"Presumptuous! You are a charlatan, and when you meet people, you say that it is a male fetus to defraud the silver taels, and the facts are conclusive and you still don't admit your guilt, and you have to use the official to punish you! ”
"Wronged, my lord, what is written on my signboard is clear, you are not allowed to ask for money! It's calculated, people have to give me two silver taels, and it's hard for me to refuse, if it's not calculated, I'm confiscating a penny, how can I get a deception? ”
"Be bold and sharp-toothed, someone complains to this official, and if you are not punished, you can't be popular!"
"Who is making false accusations? The grass people asked to be confronted to see if I had deceived anyone in the slightest, and if there was evidence, I would immediately confess! ”
"This ......"
She raised the corners of her mouth and looked at the prefect in the palace, "If your lord has nothing to do, let us go first, arrest people without evidence, and it won't sound good to spread it." ”
While talking, he gave the cub a look, and the cub understood, jumping out like a meat ball, and Tang Meng also took advantage of the situation to slip away.
The prefect didn't have a trick for a while, and cautiously cast an inquiring glance at the side hall beside him, but he bumped into a cold look, and his heart trembled in an instant, and he was drenched in cold sweat.
Duan Jingyi listened to it all in the side hall, Tang Meng was so eloquent, it was indeed very different from what he remembered.
He walked out unhurriedly, like a walking mass of low air pressure, casting a heavy shadow everywhere he went, and the people who were pressed could not breathe.
"Wait."
These two words were like thunder that hit Tang Meng in place.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Although Tang Mengcai had only passed through the past year, he had never personally experienced the ruthlessness and brutality of the year, but this voice was deeply engraved in his mind like a nightmare.
Now that it sounded again, it still made her instinctively stiff and her legs and stomach weak, and all the unbearable memories of that night many years ago swept back in an instant.
Tang Meng turned his head stiffly, and sure enough, he saw the face in his residual memory.
She laughed dryly, picked up the cub and turned to run, but unfortunately before she could jump up, she was stopped by the guarded guards.
With the dangling blade on his neck, Tang Meng swallowed his saliva with difficulty and turned around stiffly.
"Ahh It turned out that King Yi was here, and I said why is the weather so good today, you are busy with you, and I will disappear. ”
Duan Jingyi looked at His Highness's woman coldly, it was really not a small change after not seeing her for a few years, and now she dared to say a complete sentence in front of him.
"This king said slowly."
"Yes, yes, slowly, slowly, what else do you have to command? Could it be that there are nobles in your house who want to give birth, and you want me to count men and women? Rest assured, I promise you won't take a penny! Tang Meng adheres to the principle that a hero does not suffer immediate losses, and tries his best to give full play to the spirit of a dog's legs, not to mention how honest and well-behaved.
Duan Jingyi sneered and approached step by step.
Tang Meng didn't dare to look directly with a smirk, and retreated step by step.
Until they are cornered.
His low voice exploded in his ears, making people shudder, "You should know why this king is here today." ”
Tang Meng rolled his eyes in his heart, what kind of is this?
The original owner has been drifting outside for three or four years and has not seen him come to find him, and now he appears coldly and says that he should know his thoughts? I'm not sick.
Before she could speak, the little cub was picked up by Duan Jingyi.
"You let go of me, big badass!" The cub fluttered in the air, and Tang Meng's heart was also twisted.
"What the hell do you want to do!"
Duan Jingyi threw the cub to the guards behind him, and said coldly, "Take your mother and son back to the house!" ”
"What!" Not only Tang Meng, but even the prefect was taken aback.
"Lord Wang, this Diao Min is a liar, you ......"
"Liar?" Duan Jingyi narrowed his eyes.
The prefect chuckled in his heart, and knelt down, "Then this ...... It's ......"
Duan Jingyi ripped off Tang Meng's fake beard at once, and his voice was cold and firm.
"This princess was lost with her young son three years ago, and today I am fortunate to be able to find it, and the prefect has made great contributions!"
With that, he strode out of Jingzhao West Mansion with long legs, leaving only the prefect who was confused and trembling.
Duan Jingyi threw Tang Meng into the carriage and didn't give her a chance to escape at all.
The guards lined up in two rows to open the way and cleared the field loudly: Princess Yi returns to the house, pedestrians avoid! Princess Yi returned home, and pedestrians avoided it......
Tang Meng was extremely depressed when she heard this voice, was she afraid that others would not know that she was back?
Looking at the man beside her who was full of cold air, she was determined:
It's a bad thing!
