Chapter 451: King Xiang, who wants to seize the righteousness
Geng Liang, one of the remaining guards, walked out of the side door with a knife on his hip. Although he spent less time with Shen Ao, they were still together during training, which made his eyes full of sternness when he looked at people. "Who are you? Why are you shouting here?"
He clearly saw the military uniforms on the government officials, but Geng Liang looked like he didn't recognize them, which made the officials look very ugly.
But this was the Duke of Zhongguo's residence, the residence of the famous Crazy Shen. They really didn't dare to make too many mistakes, let alone break in. The leader had to take out his own identity disk, and after showing it, he faced Geng Liang. Said: "Now the barbarians are against me and have sent many spies. Someone reported that the barbarian princess is in the house. Now please let them come out and cooperate with our investigation."
"Barbarian Princess? I don't know her and she's not here. You are mistaken. Okay, don't block our door and leave quickly." Geng Liang shook his head with a cold face. After denying it, he did not wait for those words. The government officials went to say something, and immediately closed the side door of the mansion from the inside.
To be rejected like this, all the government officials looked at each other in disbelief at first. There was no intention of hiding the fact that the barbarian princess moved into the Zhongguo Duke's mansion. Many people saw it at first. Now she actually refuses to admit it. If you don’t admit it, where is the logic in this?
"No, people must be here. Our people didn't see the barbarians coming out at all, so let's knock again." After all the government officials looked at each other, they banged on the door again. Soon, the side door opened again, but came out Geng Liang was not the only one present, but also fifty security members who accompanied him.
After enjoying the delicious food and drink, fifty burly and ruddy-faced men rushed out of the house with sticks in hand and surrounded all thirty government officials.
"What are you going to do?" Looking at these big men looking at each other eagerly, the thirty government officials looked at each other with panic in their eyes. They were just Dali Temple and ordinary government officials. It's just that, in terms of status, they are far from loyal to the country. If the other party really takes action to deal with them, they will probably be beaten in vain. Even if someone can say this for them, the one who will be beaten must be themselves. .
Noticing the evasive looks in these government officials' eyes, Geng Liang snorted coldly and said with a look of contempt for them: "It doesn't matter whose order you came here. But please remember, this is the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion. .If you mess around here again, I won't be polite. This time it's a warning, next time..."
Geng Liang didn't say what would happen next time, but the government officials could feel that the next time would be when they were dealt with. Looking at these big men looking at each other with eager eyes, he thought that if the stick hit him, , that painful feeling, after the thirty government officials looked at each other, they chose to leave without saying a word.
They wanted to report this matter to the master behind them, and then ask the master to personally come forward to deal with these lawless slaves of the loyal and loyal government.
The government officials left, and the people who were watching the fun also laughed and left. Seeing those government officials who usually took advantage of others and had their nostrils soaring, left in dejection, the people also felt very happy.
Geng Liang turned around and returned to the mansion, but his expression was not at all relaxed. The fact that they drove away the government officials this time did not mean that they would not come again. On the contrary, the Zhongguo Duke's mansion that they were targeting might come again next time.
When the time comes, the movement will only get louder.
This time he can rely on the large number of people to drive away the other party, but what about next time? What if the other party comes with an order from the court? What if he wants to enter the house to search for people? Is it really necessary to fight with these government officials and fight with them?
If this is the case, and he openly fights with the officers and soldiers, I am afraid that even the Duke of the country cannot bear this responsibility. "Alas." With a sigh, Geng Liang raised his head and looked in the direction of Dingzhou City. He didn't know that the young master had found Zhongcheng.
No, when can I come back?
In the east wing of Duke Zhong's mansion, the barbarian princess and her party lived.
The sound of banging banging on the door outside the house was naturally heard by Oyadan. At this time, she looked at Bai Qiutong with a worried look on his face, "Sister Tong, why don't you leave?"
"Leave? Where are you going? Guard Geng has already said that you are not in the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion. If you go out now, you will be asking for trouble. And it is so chaotic outside. Once you go out, no one knows what will happen.
What's going on? Don't worry, just stay well in the mansion. The Duke of Zhongguo's mansion is not open to anyone who wants to. Without the emperor's order, no one can touch this place." Bai Qiutong said firmly.
With.
After following Shen Ao for such a long time, he can be regarded as a person who has seen the world. He is no longer the pure hen who needs to see people's faces. Besides, bringing the barbarian princess to live in the mansion is what Shen Ao ordered when he left.
Unless the young master gives the order, no one can attack anyone.
Thirty government officials returned without success, and the story was soon reported to King Xiang's ears, causing him to scream in surprise. "What a courage. Duke Zhongguo doesn't even admit it. Are they trying to rebel?"
Seeing Prince Xiang's furious look, Shi Zitong didn't appear to be in a hurry. On the contrary, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, this is a good thing."
"Huh? How do you say that?" Prince Xiang showed a puzzled look.
"Your Highness, if you think about it, if we go to ask for someone, the Zhongguo Palace will release the person, and then we will not be able to embarrass them even if we want to. But now, everyone knows that the barbarian princess is in the Zhongguo Palace, but they
Dare not to admit it, this is clearly putting the handle into our hands. In this way, we have occupied the great righteousness, can't we do whatever we want?" Shi Zitong laughed, it was completely a treacherous plan to succeed.
appearance.
"Eh, that's right, hahaha. As a result, the Zhongguo Palace wants to get rid of this matter, but it can't be done." King Xiang, who knew the truth, couldn't help but laugh for a while, but then his face turned pale.
Another pain, "But now that the Duke of Zhongguo doesn't admit it, can we really go in and search forcibly? I am just one of the officials who supervises the country. Such a major matter requires the five of us to decide together. I am afraid that we want to persuade
It will be very difficult for Prince Qing."
"Your Highness, why do you have to issue this order as the supervisor of the country? You can definitely go to Concubine Yuan Huang. As long as the imperial concubine and the concubine come down together, are you afraid that you won't be able to search the Duke's palace?" Shi Zitong had obviously thought about it for a long time.
Now that we have a good countermeasure, we will come up with this idea at the right time.
"That's right." With a sudden slap on his thigh, Prince Xiang said as if he was waking up from a dream. Now that the father is gone, the imperial concubine's decree will become very important. As long as he goes to find the concubine himself, is there any reason why he can't pass it?
When the time comes to enter the Duke Zhong's Mansion and search for the barbarian princess, he will punish all the slaves in the Duke Zhong's Mansion for harboring her. Even if Shen Ao, the Duke of Zhong, can return to Daliang City, it will be of no use.
"Come here, prepare your carriage, I am about to enter the palace." The impatient King Xiang shouted out repeatedly, wishing he could appear in front of his mother and concubine in the harem right now.
...
Prince Qing's Mansion.
The yamen officer went to the Zhongguo Duke's Mansion, and the news of his expulsion had already spread.
In the study, King Qing breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the news. He looked at Zuo Pushe Fan Shitong who was sitting next to him and couldn't help but said: "These servants of the loyal government are quite stubborn and have the guts not to admit everything. It also scared away the government officials, not bad, not bad."
"Hey, Your Highness, please don't be happy too early." Fan Shitong, on the other hand, did not show any relaxation on his face. On the contrary, he was still frowning.
"Teacher, isn't King Xiang willing to give up? That is the loyal government. As long as they don't recognize it, who can search there without an order? As for King Xiang, although he is one of the officials who supervise the country, as long as I and the If the teacher disagrees, what can he do?"
Seeing that King Qing was so confident, Fan Shitong couldn't help but shook his head. He didn't think that what King Xiang wanted to do had to go through the five ministers who were supervising the country. Don't forget that although the emperor was not in Daliang City, Concubine Yuan Huang was still there. Now, with her love for King Xiang, it is not difficult to ask Yi Zhi to come out.
"There is also Imperial Concubine Yuan behind King Xiang." Fan Shitong had to point out his worries.
hiss!
Hearing these words, King Qing couldn't help but take a breath. Yes, there is Emperor Yuan's concubine behind him. In contrast, his mother-in-law passed away very early. Otherwise, he would not be like her. He is so passive now, and there is no one in the palace who can even say a word for him.
Knowing what King Xiang might do, King Qing couldn't help but become even more anxious, "Teacher, no, we have to think of countermeasures, otherwise the barbarians will definitely hate us."
The reason why Oyadan came to Daliang City this time was because King Qing wrote the letter of marriage. Although the princess came, she was looking for Duke Zhongguo, not herself. For this reason, King Qing felt betrayed. People took advantage of it.
In fact, he was indeed used by the barbarians. But speaking from a larger perspective, Oyadan was indeed invited by him when she appeared in Daliang City, so he had the obligation to ensure her safety. On the contrary, if the barbarian princess If something happens here, King Qing will take responsibility. At least the barbarians will hold him accountable.
If this is the case, not only will the barbarians not become his backers, but they will also become his enemies. This result is definitely unacceptable to King Qing.
Compared with other princes, Prince Qing already has too many disadvantages. For example, he does not have his mother-in-law to speak for him in front of the emperor, and his physical health is limited. Without the support of other forces, he will It can only be a prince.
