Chapter 21: Lord of the Lotus Flower

The prince met with the bookkeeper and asked them about their situation.

They said that after escaping from the scale mountain, they finally arrived in the capital, and they wanted to seek the help of General Banyue, but the gate of the general's mansion was heavily guarded, and they did not dare to go in, so they found someone to send a message to the general asking for help.

But the general said that he could not protect himself and could not protect them, so he asked them to go to the yamen to report the case themselves.

When the prince heard this, he understood in his heart that Banyue had commanded his own army.

Mr. Bookkeeper appeared in this way, and everyone was watching, how dare he get rid of them again.

After all, this is the root of the imperial city, and there was a murder case, which alarmed the emperor, and if he used his Qingtianwei to investigate the case, with their ability, they would inevitably find out their heads.

The prince persuaded these bookkeepers to judge the situation and say that it was a sure thing for Banyue to step down, and if they could prove that Banyue had embezzled military salaries, he would treat them well.

They were embarrassed to say that the ledger had been lost in the Scales Mountain, and no matter how they testified, they had no evidence.

The prince said that it was all right, you just have to testify, and there is no need to worry about the account books.

And they agreed.

The prince was overjoyed, thinking that everything was ready, and only the east wind was owed, so he urged the Criminal Department to hold a trial as soon as possible.

Before waiting for the trial, he was bored, and remembered to smile again, thinking about her figure in the water, and his heart was itching, so he asked a plumber to investigate to see if there was suitable groundwater in the palace that could be made into a clear water pool.

At this time, someone sent a secret letter, saying that the emperor was going to let him marry the lord of Lotus County as a side concubine.

"What?" When he heard this, he felt a headache.

This county lord has not had a lot of dealings with her himself.

When he was learning martial arts from Wang Jiaotou, he was beaten by her.

If you marry her as a concubine, then you don't want to be at ease in the East Palace, she must be a super "housekeeper mother-in-law" with a whip and a slap.

How can it be so easy to fool like the crown princess?

No matter how much he wants a woman, he doesn't want a woman like the Lotus County Lord who is too strong and doesn't obey discipline at all.

He lay on the collapse in a daze with a sad face, and when he saw Father-in-law Ochre bringing in pastries, he asked, "You say, how should this palace make the emperor change his mind?" ”

Father-in-law ochre knew about the Lotus County Lord before him, and the people placed by the crown princess next to Emperor Xuan were more efficient than the people he installed, but Father-in-law ochre only pretended not to know before, for fear of exposing the relationship between himself and the crown princess.

In his hand was a pastry made by the crown princess herself.

The crown princess wanted to see the prince and asked him to match.

The rules of Puguo, a woman stays at home, she doesn't dare to go out of the backyard, but the prince doesn't go to the backyard all the time, she can't see the prince, and she misses it in a panic.

"The villain is stupid, how can he come up with any way? This is a pastry sent by the crown princess, you can taste it, maybe you will be in a good mood. ”

"Don't eat it." The prince has no appetite.

"The crown princess is very smart, maybe she has an idea, you go and ask her?"

"Pull it down." The crown prince never thought that the crown princess was smart. She's stupid, and she can bluff her with just a few words.

"The crown princess asked people to talk about it, saying that there were two full moon days when she was looking at the moon alone, and she wanted to enjoy the bright moon with Her Royal Highness."

The prince looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, and snorted with his nose: "Where is the moon?" ”

Now I am very annoyed by the princess's pestering of people, and I send people to urge me in three days. If she is pregnant, she will take care of the fetus, she can't do the things of men and women, what will she go to do by herself?!

And when she came to her, she only had some topics of old sesame seeds and rotten grains in her mouth, which was very boring, so she didn't want to see her.

It's better to go to the prison and see the smile. This girl is a goblin, hooking herself but not letting herself touch it, which makes her heart itch and panic.

Seeing her, even if she splashed her face, her heart was beating with joy.

Otherwise, go and see her, and the mood will definitely be much better.

-------------------------

Seeing that the backyard was unguarded, the Lotus County Lord quietly climbed up the tree, and then climbed the side branches to move his body.

As soon as his toes stepped on the wall, he suddenly heard a shout: "Lotus! ”

This startled her, and she almost fell down, so startled that King Yuan Wei hurriedly rushed to the corner of the wall and spread his arms to catch her.

She shook her head like a tumbler several times, finally got to her feet, made a frustrated face, and looked back at her father.

"Come down, don't come nonsense!" King Yuan Wei glared at her angrily.

"Father, stand tall and see far away, I just want to see the scenery outside."

"Get down!"

"I can't get down." Lotus looked back and forth, and she really wanted to jump outside, and if she didn't find Banyue again, she was afraid that it would be too late.

"Someone!" King Yuan Wei drank the order.

Immediately, a government soldier ran over.

"Okay, Father, I'll come down by myself." The Lord of the Lotus County had to reach out and grab the branch, and then flew to the ground with its droop.

"The person who is going to get married, and he is still running around!" King Yuan Wei blamed.

"I'm not married." The Lotus County Lord pursed his lips.

"The emperor's marriage is the glory of our Yuan country, and being the crown princess is a dream that many women can hardly hope for in their lifetime." King Yuan Wei taught a lesson with a straight face.

"I only like Banyue!" Lotus muttered.

"Be bold, don't talk nonsense!" King Yuan Wei immediately stopped it, looked left and right, fortunately, those soldiers saw that the county lord had come down, and retreated to stand in the distance, so they should not have heard what she said.

"You come with me." King Yuan Wei dragged her to his study.

Lotus kept stirring her fingers, very unconvinced.

I just want to find Banyue, inform him of the news that the emperor is going to issue a holy decree to give marriage, and ask him to help him think of a way.

But my father always told people to watch him, and he was not allowed to go out, and he finally found a way to sneak out, but he was intercepted.

"Do you know that Banyue is in trouble right now?" King Yuan Wei asked solemnly.

"Of course you know, so what? It must have been the prince who framed him! How could he be that kind of person? Lotus crackled and defended Banyue.

King Yuan Wei's eyes became even more stern: "You should understand a truth, no matter what the truth is, the prince will definitely make it a fact!" ”

"Then you still let me be with such a person!"

"The winner is the king and the loser is Kou, if you don't even understand this truth, you are not worthy of being the future queen of our Yuan Kingdom!"

"Isn't it humiliating for me, the future queen of Yuan Kingdom, to marry the crown prince as a side concubine? What's more, I hate the Princeβ€”"

"Smack!" King Yuan Wei directly slapped her and interrupted her words.

Lotus covered her face and glared at her father aggrievedly, tears welling up in her eyes.

King Yuan Wei couldn't bear to look at it, turned around, and said word by word: "Any words that insult the imperial authority of Puguo are a capital crime, and it is light to beat you, and you must be made to remember this lesson." ”

"......" Lotus wiped her tears fiercely, desperately holding back her crying, but she still couldn't help but sniff her nose frequently.

King Yuan Wei could feel the depression in the air, his heart ached, and he didn't want his daughter to be wronged, but the holy will was difficult to violate, and he and his daughter must obey.

"Do you know why the emperor gave him a marriage?" He asked Lotus.

"Hell knows, he's insane!"

"You!" King Yuan Wei raised his hand again, and Lotus puffed up his chest, stared at him with red eyes, and looked directly at him fearlessly.

His open palms clenched into fists in the air, releasing his impulses, and slowly lowering them.

Lotus, a child, has always eaten soft rather than hard, and beating her can't solve the problem, so she must reason with her.

"The emperor's marriage is to test whether our Yuan Kingdom is loyal!" He explained with restraint.

"Isn't it true that if I don't marry the crown prince, our Yuan Kingdom will not be faithful?!" Lotus retorted angrily.
