Chapter 18: The Zongren Mansion Comes to the Door
Just when Xia Ao was chic and happy in the Bibo Palace, a team of more than 100 people and armor with bright red armor came to Yunhai Mansion with great momentum.
The royal family of Daxia respected gold, followed by red, so the Zongren Mansion, which specialized in managing the affairs of the imperial family, used red as the main color.
Like this red and bright armor style, it symbolizes the identity of the internal guard of the Zongren Mansion.
Inside the gate, Xu Shang, who found this scene, couldn't help but turn pale, and his expression became anxious.
"It's over, it's over, it's really here......"
Rong Luo frowned, a flash of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, and her tone was a little stiff.
"Uncle Xu, you are also the head of His Highness's mansion, why are you so afraid?"
Xu Shang turned his head angrily, blew his beard and glared, "What do you know!" The current Zongren Mansion is the arm of the three princes, and the Zongren who led the team is the prince's person! ”
"Your Royal Highness has offended the crown prince and the third prince now, if this is taken to the Zongren Mansion, can you please it?"
"If they seize this matter and make a big fuss, and Your Majesty is unwilling to come forward to pay attention to it, Your Highness is afraid that in the future, you will not even be able to seal the king of the county!"
Rong Luo pursed her lips and sneered: "Uncle Xu, I think you are really a little confused, they have someone behind them, isn't there one in our Royal Highness?" ”
"With the great general here, who dares to be too embarrassed by His Highness?"
Xu Shang's face twitched, and his expression became even more annoyed, but Rong Luo turned a blind eye and continued to speak.
"What's more, Your Highness is not really crazy, since Your Highness dares to do this, he must have the bottom in his heart."
"Didn't you notice that the people from the Ministry of Rites haven't shown up yet?"
Hearing this, Xu Shang couldn't help but be stunned, and seemed to have some understanding in his heart.
Although the affairs of the royal family need to be handled by the Zongren Mansion in the end, the relevant ministries and departments can still intervene in the early stage.
The Department of Rites is subordinate to the Ministry of Rites, and such a big event has happened, according to common sense, the people from the Ministry of Rites should always come to the door to ask for an explanation, right?
But the people from the Ministry of Rites, who bore the brunt of the matter, didn't see it for a long time, but it was the Zongren Mansion who received the news that came first, which is indeed a bit strange......
Thinking of this, Xu Shang's heart settled down a little.
At this time, the internal guards of the Sect Mansion had already surrounded the gate of the Yunhai Mansion, and the middle-aged man at the head was striding towards him with a gloomy face.
This person is the third-in-command of the Zongren Mansion - Zongren, and he is also the king of Pingchuan in the current dynasty, named Xia Yongning, and is Xia Ao's uncle.
Xia Yongning's background is average, so he only won the reward of a county king.
However, his choice was also decisive, and he voted for the prince's line when he was still young, which is also the main reason why he can become a sect member.
"Where are the six princes? Let him come out immediately, and go to the Zongren Mansion with the people of the sect to be questioned! ”
However, in the face of Xia Yongning's questioning, what responded to him was an extremely unceremonious cold snort.
"Get out!"
As soon as this voice came out, everyone was stunned.
Not to mention that Xia Yongning was stunned in front of the door, even Xu Shang and Rong Luo were startled.
"Bastard!"
After coming back to his senses, Xia Yongning's face instantly turned red, and he glared angrily at Zhou Ying who was standing in the middle of the gate, with an amazing murderous intent in his eyes.
"Little guard, dare to insult the royal family!"
"Come on, take this guy down! If there is resistance, kill on the spot! ”
"No!"
The two youngsters immediately rushed out from the rear and were about to rush towards Zhou Ying.
Zhou Ying's eyes were cold, and his eyes also popped up with murderous intent.
At the last moment, Xu Shang and Rong Luo rushed out in time.
"Wait!"
"Zongren, he is the chief of my Royal Highness's personal guard, and his temperament has always been upright and reckless. He was just open-mouthed for a while, and he still looked at the sect people Haihan......"
Xu Shang smiled bitterly and explained to Xia Yongning, but Xia Yongning didn't want to listen at all.
"Hugh be noisy! This man is a heinous sin and must be punished severely! You'd better go and ask the six princes to come out immediately, otherwise, the people of this sect will have to bring people in person to 'please'!" ”
At this time, Rong Luo took a step forward and snorted coldly.
"King Pingchuan, I know that you are so positive, but you just want to vent your anger for the crown prince. But have you ever wondered if you're taking your actions too lightly? ”
"The matter between the crown prince and my royal highness, is it not clear that you can meddle in it at will?"
"Presumptuous!"
Xia Yongning suddenly became angry, glared at Rong Luo fiercely and scolded: "Hugh is talking nonsense!" What this sect member does is completely performing his own duties, so what does he have to do with others? ”
"The six princes made a big fuss about the sect division, relying on their identity as the prince to do mischief, if my sect's mansion does not punish according to the rules, how can I explain to the people of the world? How to explain to Your Majesty?! ”
Rong Luo chuckled and shook his head, not directly refuting, but just said a few words calmly.
"I want to teach King Pingchuan to know that today the crown princess once again invited my royal highness on behalf of the prince. After His Royal Highness left the Teaching Division, the first place he went to was the East Palace Annex......"
"King Pingchuan, do you really know what you're doing?"
Hearing Rong Luo's meaningful words, Xia Yongning's face remained unchanged, but his pupils shrank sharply.
After gritting his teeth, Xia Yongning was about to say something, but Rong Luo took the lead.
"There is another thing that needs to be reminded of King Pingchuan, the people from the Ministry of Rites have not shown up for a long time, haven't you thought about why this is happening?"
Xia Yongning was stunned for a moment, then his face changed, and he became a little surprised.
Isn't it really wrong to be a bird?
Just when he was a little suspicious, he suddenly heard a voice behind him.
"Zongren, Xu Lang, the sect leader, has arrived."
Xia Yongning's eyes suddenly lit up, and he glared at Rong Luo and Xu Shang and laughed.
"The people of this sect were really almost deceived by your tricks! Didn't you say that the Ministry of Rites wouldn't come? What now? ”
"Humph! Now I'll see how you still have doubts! ”
While he was smiling, Xu Hua walked over from behind.
Xia Yongning turned around and looked at Xu Hua with a smile on his face.
"Xu Langzhong, you came just in time, and you need to be recognized. After you finish the identification, the Six Princes' Mansion can directly take over this matter, and your Ministry of Rites will not have to bother with it. ”
However, Xu Hua had an ugly face, gritted his teeth and saluted Xia Yongning, and then stepped forward and whispered in his ear.
Before long, Xia Yongning seemed to have heard something unbelievable, his eyes widened and he screamed in astonishment.
"What do you say? This didn't happen?! ”
Xu Hua hurriedly made a silent gesture and pointed up vaguely.
Xia Yongning was stunned for a moment, and then his pupils shrank.
This, it turned out to be the meaning of His Majesty?!
How could His Majesty be accustomed to the Six Princes? And it's such a big deal?!
Xia Yongning couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't think about it at this time, and he didn't even care about finding trouble with Zhou Ying anymore, so he hurriedly led people away with a black face.
And Xu Hua didn't stay long, and disappeared quietly after passing the word.
In front of the door, Zhou Ying shook his head in disappointment, and continued to close his eyes and become the door god.
As for Xu Shang and Rong Luo, although the two of them were also a little inexplicable, their hearts finally let go.
Just as they were about to go in, they saw the five princes' chariots coming in volley......
