Chapter Twenty-Three: The Devil Pays for His Life

Hong Tang sat on the sedan chair outside the palace wall for a long time.

Today, the sky is clear and the sun is shining, so I can give Hong Tang a good mood.

There's nothing more gratifying than this, right?

But.

Hong Tang stroked his two lips.

Xue Daoping or something, it will have nothing to do with him in the future.

In the past few months, these past few days, it has been really evil.

I've seen all the ghosts and gods.

I have seen what heart is moving, what heart is dead.

Sitting in this four-lifted sedan chair, on the purple cushion, thinking about it, I lost my mind.

……

Tang House.

The eldest lady of the Tang Mansion, Tang Shang Jiang was supported by the maid and cried a lot, but the tears dried up last night, and now it is a dry howl.

A pair of jasper bracelets were tightly cuffed in his hands, and he wore a white dress. Liu was born obese, but now he seems to have lost more than three pounds, his face is red from crying, and now he is a widow, how can he not cry.

"Today...... I want to talk to the emperor, how can the lord die so unjustly? Liu gritted his teeth and said.

She didn't know that Tang Shangjiang had slaughtered the Hongfu Manmen, but that Hong Tang had killed her poor husband.

She shook the Hongfu Jiapei in her hand, and just wanted to smash it, but unfortunately she had to use it as a testimony later, so she had to take a deep breath and hand it to the maid.

"Sister Xiang, last night's incident, I have you to testify." Liu Shi turned his head slightly and said.

Behind her is the concubine Xiang who served Tang Shangjiang last night, and now a pair of big dark circles are applied to the swollen eyelids, describing her haggard and in a trance, and a pair of slender hands pinching the chrysanthemum silk handkerchief in her hand. It seems that she can't forget all the things she had last night, her eyes were empty, like a down-and-out female ghost, but she didn't agree to Liu's words.

"Sister Xiang?" Liu said again.

In the past few days since Xiang got married, Liu has been unhappy with this dusty woman from a Qinglou, but now she dares to ignore her, which makes her so annoyed.

"Huh?" Only then did Xiang react, saluted in a panic, and said, "Yes." ”

When Liu heard this, he turned around and sat in the small sedan chair.

Liu didn't prepare a sedan chair for Xiang's, so Xiang could only follow like a maid beside the sedan chair.

There are also Tang Shangjiang's two sons who are gentlemen, and they lingered in the Desire Immortal Building last night, and they sent someone to find them overnight before they came back, and now they are wearing linen and filial piety, with a bitter face, and there is no prestige of the Qinglou last night.

In addition, a few family members, carrying baskets, scattered some paper money as they walked, and two walked in front of them holding a piece of rice paper with the words "Evil Ghosts Pay for Their Lives", and a team went on the road in a mighty way.

Tang Shangjiang's other two concubines stood by the door and watched, one of them was still holding a baby baby, the baby didn't know what was going on, and smiled innocently.

The resentment of the Tang Mansion collided very much with today's clear sky.

Xiang put away the silk handkerchief embroidered with Xiao Ju, and the corners of his lips hooked up a smile, and the smile was gloomy.

……

"Retreat!"

His Royal Highness's officials in various court robes withdrew one after another.

Today, I didn't see Tang Shangjiang.

Tang Shangjiang is already the prime minister of the official residence, and he will not go to the court without asking for leave, which is not in line with the rules, of course, no matter where the official residence is, let alone the head of the hundred officials?

The emperor's brows have been wrinkled since the last dynasty until he retreated.

Later, I will see the prospective brother and sister who crawled out of the pile of dead people.

I don't know what grievances she has, it's really a lot of brains.

The emperor rubbed his temples.

……

Outside the palace walls.

"The emperor is invited!"

The little eunuch who only heard the screaming voice was outside the sedan chair.

"You can't take a sedan chair in the palace, and I hope that Miss will get off the sedan chair and walk."

He leaned out of the sedan chair with his bare hands and lifted the curtain.

Even the little eunuch couldn't help but glance at it.

What kind of girl did she look like when she crawled out of the pile of dead people?

Oh.

The girl stepped on a pair of orange embroidered shoes, embroidered some willow leaves, a pair of silk socks, brown bottoms, and a goose yellow top, all of which were only decorated with a few small flowers and grasses, and did not make too many embellishments.

Wear a Yingluo on the neck, double fish earrings on the ears, and only one yellow flower hairpin.

The facial features are smart.

It's like the appearance of a dead ghost in the palace, and it's clearly a lively girl.

"This way, please." The little eunuch bowed and saluted.

Hong Tang nodded, and followed the little eunuch away.

Dignified, dignified, this trip is not only to see the emperor, but also the future husband and brother.

"Wait!" Suddenly, a sharp female voice behind him said, "Is that Miss Hongfu?" ”

"Exactly." The little eunuch replied quickly.

Hong Tang heard the sound and turned his head to look.

I saw a group of people dressed in linen and wearing filial piety, scattering paper money all over the sky, holding a large piece of rice paper with the words "evil ghosts pay for their lives".

Menacing and full of bad luck.

And the person who held Hong Tang was the lady of the Tang family who had just gotten off the sedan chair - Liu.

"Mrs. Tang, what's the matter?" The little eunuch said.

That Liu took out a handkerchief, wiped the corners of his eyes, and looked directly at Hong Tang with his eyes: "There is a murder to report!" ”

The little eunuch said strangely: "This is not the official mansion, why don't you go to the official mansion to report?" ”

"Because...... In this kind of bloody case, it is the Prime Minister who died, and he must explain it clearly to the Holy Lord! For some reason, Liu was talking to the little eunuch, but his bloodshot eyes stared at Hong Tang.

……

The emperor has always had a lot of complaints about this Miss Hongfu, she doesn't stay at home well, she is quiet, but she always does some naughty things, if it weren't for the fact that Lu Hesheng really likes it tightly, he wouldn't have allowed this marriage.

Now seeing that Miss Hong Tang has not shown up for a long time, her face is even darker.

Yu Wang Lu Hesheng kept pacing in front of him, frowning.

Why haven't you seen anyone for so long?

"Your Majesty, let's go out and have a look." Takihe Sheng finally couldn't help it and saluted.

The emperor nodded and said, "Go ahead, Gonggong Xu will also follow to take a look." ”

Takihe Sheng didn't dare to stop walking towards the city gate.

……

Tang Shangjiang, dead?

Hong Tang was a little surprised, a few days ago, I heard that he married a new concubine, and now the bed is not warm, why did he leave?

It seems that if you do too much injustice, you will be killed.

There are many enemies, and it is natural to be killed.

Hong Tang snorted coldly.

Tang Shangjiang alone is not enough, he has to lose his family.

The little eunuch was in a dilemma, and he didn't know what to do.

A team of people from the Tang Mansion stared at her with blood-red eyes as if they were going to eat Hong Tang.

"It's you!" The new concubine Xiang walked out from behind the Liu family, and said in horror, her poor big eyes were full of tears, and with her pale complexion, she looked like a ghost.

"It's you!" The Xiang clan rushed towards Hong Tang like crazy, ran so much that the hairpin ran away, and the silk handkerchief embroidered with chrysanthemums flew out of the clothes.

She grabbed Hong Tang's collar with one hand, tore it open to both sides, and shouted frantically: "Didn't you break your head last night?" Yes? I don't believe you don't have a scar on your neck! ”

Hong Tang let him grab the collar, his neck was torn and painful, and he couldn't breathe as if he was being choked by someone.

This woman, she didn't know at all!

"She's crazy!" Tang Shangjiang's second son shouted, originally saw that this clan was charming and wanted to take it for himself after his father's death, but now he is crazy, what a pity.

The little eunuch on the side hurriedly grabbed Xiang, but he was thrown away and screamed in pain on the ground.

The family of King Yu's mansion also came up to pull, but this woman came to beat people, and no one could get close.

"What's going on here?"
