After the Tyrant Dressed As a Woman Disguised As a Man

East Point Alley, Chang'an, Kyoto

Qi Gaozu fought for several years and became the capital of Chang'an. After hundreds of years of development, the city of Chang'an today is very prosperous, especially Daqi Palace where Qiao Qing lived.

The surrounding area is filled with high-ranking officials and nobles. This is the place that the people of Daqi are most yearning for. Every inch of land is rich in money, showing power and wealth.

Compared with the bustling and lively outside of Miyagi, Dongjiao Alley, located at the junction of the city and suburbs, is simply too dark and barren, and it does not seem to belong to the land of Kyoto at all.

Dongjiao Alley is actually an old alley that has existed hundreds of years ago. After years of baptism, every brick and stone in the alley looks weather-beaten and mottled.

Moss came out of the cracks in the stone, and the irregular dull green patches made the gloomy Dongjiao Alley look even more barren.

Obviously in the busy city, but because of being very backward, messy, and poor, it is almost forgotten.

The people living here are the rats living in the gutter of Chang'an City, the prostitutes who sell flesh, the thugs who make a living by extortion, and the gamblers and the villains who have committed crimes.

Another small group of people are shy foreigners who can't afford to rent expensive houses in Kyoto, so they can only live here.

Located in the innermost part of Dongjiao Alley is a small courtyard with one entry and one exit.

Although this yard is small, it is very clean and tidy. It is incompatible with the whole messy Dongjiao alley. In the small yard, in addition to some small green onions and vegetables planted by the common people, there are also bamboo plants, which suddenly makes this small yard more. Kind of style.

A bamboo bench was placed in the yard, and an old lady in a coarse cloth was sitting on it, with an endless selection of water spinach on hand.

May is the best time for Chang'an water spinach. The water spinach picked from the water is watery and green, and the leaves and stems are not tender.

A lot of them were disassembled and made in two ways, the leaves were cleanly fried, and the stalks of water spinach were fried to eat the bacon left over during the Chinese New Year.

"Zong'er likes this the most." The old woman said a few words, and suddenly coughed violently, almost coughing out her lungs.

A beautiful little girl next to her panicked, and continued to follow her breath for the old lady: "Grandma, take a breath and take your time."

A tall and tall man carried a bag of medicine and pushed open the courtyard door. When the pretty girl saw the young man, her eyes lit up.

She stood up, her tone of voice was soft and judo: "Big Brother Zhang."

The young man she called Big Brother Zhang glanced at her, but his expression was cold.

The young girl seemed to be used to his attitude and hurriedly got up to take the medicine packet in his hand: "I'll help."

The latter avoided: "No need."

"Xiuying! The quilts are not dried at home, where did the dead girl go!"

There was some sharp roar from a woman in the yard next door. The young girl looked up along the source of the sound. Her mother was lying on the wall, looking at her with faint eyes.

It was too embarrassing for A Niang to do this. Seeing Big Brother Zhang also followed to look at the wall, Wang Xiuying's cheeks became hot immediately, and she wiped her hands quickly: "My mother is in a hurry to ask me to help, I'll go back first."

She looked at the man reluctantly, stomped her foot, and turned back to her yard.

The young girl went to the next door, watching her mother who had just come down the ladder and peered at the movement of the wall of Zhang's courtyard, angrily said: "Aniang, don't you think Brother Zhang is pretty good? I didn't say a few words to him. Then why call me back so soon!"

The big-waisted woman pointed her hands on her hips and pointed her daughter's accusatory gesture like a teapot: "What are you talking about? People are not willing to talk to you at all, but you like to stick to that guy's cold **** with a hot face!"

Most of the people living in Dongjiao Alley are very poor. This is the case with this young girl named Wang Xiuying.

Her family is a native of Chang'an. She originally had a small business in her family, and her family background was fair.

It's a pity that Wang Xiuying's mother is very able to give birth to six or seven children. Wang Xiuying is the only girl, so that the otherwise okay family situation is abruptly eaten by these half-sized children.

In order to support so many children, the Wang family had to sell the original house and replaced it with a two-in-one yard in Dongjiao Alley. The place was full of poor people, and many cheap things could be bought nearby.

After all, Wang Xiuying is a girl who has not left the pavilion. She has a thin face. She flushed: "This is not what you said before. When he moves out, our family will not be able to climb this kind of person."

The Queen Mother said: "It was then, and now is now. This Feng Shui ethics is flowing. That Zhang family is just a small official. Your brother and them have grown up. We will live better and better in the future. My daughter is born. It's so good-looking, and it's appropriate to match it with better people."

However, Wang Xiuying's cheeks are red, and her brows are sentimental. It is the girl Huaichun: "Big Brother Zhang is Ting Weiping at a young age, and he won't be bad in the future."

Ting Weiping ranks six hundred stones, which is equivalent to the salary of the seven-rank county magistrate. It is not good here in the capital, but it is also better than the common people.

Moreover, Zhang Zong is a court official, or under the command of the court lieutenant. He rules the law, even if he is a petty official, he has no small rights.

"What do you know, that's a fool. Otherwise, if you have been an official for half a year, you will be rich and rich. You can see that there is only a grandmother in his family who can't eat much good food, and can be so poor. The camper. Now you are innocent with him, and if you are really with him, you will suffer in the future."

Wang sneered, appearing to be very optimistic about Zhang Zong's future. She lowered her voice, "It's all right before, but mother just got the exact news. This is so bold. Just two days ago, he actually offended the princess!"

She shook her round head: "What's the use of a man with a good face, he can't live his life without a good character. Maybe in a few days, his family will be out of luck. Do you think this official lady is so easy to do? , In case he is beheaded, you still want to be a widow. Listen to your mother, your cousin will come over in a few days and meet him."

When Wang Xiuying heard that Zhang Zong had offended the princess, her face changed from pink to pale, and a string in her head was broken, and she immediately ran to the yard next door.

"Big Brother Zhang, did you really offend the princess?"

The very thin young man glanced at her, then withdrew his gaze, skillfully changing the charcoal fire in the coal stove: "Zhang's matter seems to have nothing to do with Miss Wang."

Wang Xiuying's eyes turned red, and Mrs. Zhang patted the back of her grandson's hand: "What are you talking about, so fierce to others."

Old people pay attention to making money with harmony, and they don't want to have any discord with their neighbors.

Listening to my grandmother coughing twice, her thin lips moved, and she finally gave up a few words: "Lao Wang is worried. I killed the princess who committed the crime by following the law two days ago, which is regarded as offensive. Let this princess go. Don't come here if you have nothing to do in the future, lest you get involved."

The young girl looked at him steadily, without seeing the slightest friendship in his eyes for herself, she wiped her tears, turned her head and ran away.

She really likes Zhang Zong who is as thin as a bamboo and is different from the other men she has ever seen.

But she also knows that the nobles can't offend them at all. If she is the only one, she is willing to give her life for her love, but she still has her parents and six brothers in her family. She can't involve her family because of her selfishness. .

What's more, the concubine is affectionate, and Lang has no intention. Zhang Zong didn't like her at all, so she eagerly posted what she did.

After "driving away" the girl Wang who was in love next door, Zhang Zong was beaten by his grandmother again.

The old lady Zhang blamed him: "You child, that girl Xiuying is very nice. You look like this, when will I see you getting married."

Zhang Zong removed the medicine bag in his hand, and lighted the stove by himself, and used a fan to blow the wind slightly. The thick smoke made the young Qingjun's cold face softer: "I have a straight temper and a bad temper, which makes me easy to offend. People, the family is still in debt, so I won’t delay my girl’s house."

He pushed the old lady inward: "You go back and rest. I am taking a break today. I can just boil this medicine."

What Zhang Zong didn't say was that he really didn't care about that Xiuying girl. It's just that this kind of gentle and good girl is different from those hooligans, he can only deal with it coldly, lest it be too ugly.

The amiable old lady glared at him: "What are you pushing? I haven't finished choosing water spinach."

Zhang Zong stopped talking, and honestly helped boil the medicine and wash the vegetables.

That night, Zhang Zong was woken up by the smoke.

Because of his occupation, Zhang Zong's sleep has always been very shallow, and a little movement at night makes him sober.

Looking outside, the fire was all over the sky, and the firewood piled up in the yard suddenly caught fire.

Zhang Zong immediately rushed out to fetch water into the tank with a bucket, trying to put out the flames, and then he found that the tank did not know when it was smashed.

He rushed to the middle of the yard again, and quickly hoisted water from the well.

As a result, a few dark shadows sprang up on the courtyard wall outside, not only throwing wood and tiles at him, but also pouring oil toward the fire in his courtyard.

The fire suddenly swelled several times, and Zhang Zong avoided to throw objects, but he could only watch the fire grow stronger.

These people are determined to want his life!

Think about the person I offended today, and only the great princess. Zhang Zong didn't regret that he had dealt with it impartially in accordance with the law, and he only hated the nobles of Tianhuang for not treating them like poor children as human beings.

By the way, grandmother, you don't care about everything, he has to rescue grandmother.

Zhang Zong watched the fire tongue licking the wooden house, ignored the fight with the thieves, carefully avoided the beams that had been burnt down by the fire, covered his clothes with water, and kept rushing into the house.

When he rushed in, Zhang had been fainted by the smoke, Zhang Zong hurriedly went to check her old man's breath, although it was slight, there was still a breath, and the pulse was beating.

In this case, you must stay away from here to prevent her from inhaling more smoke.

Zhang Zong unbuttoned the old woman's collar and rushed out with her.

When Zhang Zong went to rescue his grandmother, there was another fighting outside.

Because of this small yard that was only one entry, another group of people suddenly appeared.

As soon as the people in front were about to retreat, they were startled by this group of heavenly soldiers.

The first group looked at this group of very burly men in black, and couldn't help but ask: "Where did you come from?"

Does it take so many people out to deal with a low-ranking official in a small area?

The man in black at the back ignored them at all and took out his weapon: "Brothers, go to the guy, remember to stay alive!"

Some people entangled the arsonists, while others hurriedly put out the fire.

Thanks to Zhang Zongzu’s small courtyard, there was a well, and the courtyard wall was made of stone, which did not burn so quickly. These people took turns to fetch water and quickly extinguished the fire.

When Zhang Zong, who was smoky and dusty, carried his old grandmother out of the room, he saw six or seven rice dumplings **** with twine. Next to them stood a man in black who didn’t know where he came from. Each hand held a sharp blade, and the specially-made blade shone cold in the moonlight.

These weapons came from officials, but they were obviously not the same group of people who wanted to murder him.

Their purpose should still be completely opposite, because the fire set by the former has been extinguished by these latecomers. It's just a pity that the things that can be burned in this small yard are also burned a little and a half, and the scene is very bleak.

The latecomer wiped the dirt on his face from the black smoke: "Master Zhang, let us go."

The headed man in black has a slightly hoarse voice, but Zhang Zong can tell from the opponent's figure and eyes that this is a young man in his twenties.

Obviously, this is all Lianjiazi, and the lethality is extraordinary. Zhang Zong didn't struggle much, only said: "I can go with you, but my grandmother still needs to see the doctor."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old woman behind his back coughed. The bumps along the way, coupled with the fresh air breathing outside, she woke up briefly, but soon fainted again due to uncomfortable feelings.

It was the young man who was in charge of this squad that was responsible for issuing orders: "Mrs. Zhang should be fine. You will go with us, and the best doctor will treat your grandmother."

Zhang Zong steadily carried his grandmother on his back, and followed these people into the carriage.

The group drove three carriages in total, one of which was stuffed into the suspect of the previous arson.

The three cars were divided into two teams, and a single car was left for the leader of the man in black, as well as Zhang Zong's ancestors and grandchildren.

"Boss, let's go first."

Zhang Zong laid his grandmother flat in the carriage, and the curtains were rolled up to allow the cold wind to blow in at night.

He watched the carriage with the arsonist driving in another direction, and asked one more question: "But want to destroy the corpse?"

This is not like walking to the mass graves on the outskirts of Beijing, but like walking towards the center of the city.

"If you dare to set fire in Kyoto to murder the imperial order officer, these brave thieves should naturally be handed over to Dali Temple."

The headed young man took off the mask on his face: "Master Zhang, are you at ease now?"

Zhang Zong is Ting Weiping and he has seen this young face. He is Lin Ziqi, the guard promoted by the emperor. He is also the person who took Yu Linqi to copy the Zhang family.

The Zhang family copied refers to the aristocratic Zhang family in Chang'an, who has little relationship with him, a person from a small rural area and a poor background.

The best doctor in the world is the imperial physician who sees the royal family, and the identity of the one who wants to see him today is very obvious.

Zhang Zong's heart fell: "You have troubles, sirs."

The person in charge of reporting the news went ahead with the horse. Now the city has a curfew. No matter how fast the horse runs, he doesn't worry about bumping into passersby.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Zong was introduced to a hot spring villa on the outskirts of Beijing.

Together with Lin Ziqi, he carefully lifted the unconscious Old Lady Zhang from the carriage and laid it flat on the soft couch.

The imperial doctor who was rushed to wait for a while, when he saw this, he took the initiative to greet him.

"My surname is Sun. Now I am working at the Taiyuan Hospital. This is Mrs. Zhang."

Zhang Zong got out of the carriage: "Yes, let's take a look at her grandmother's current situation."

After the imperial physician had examined the pulse, he did not dislike the simple place, and showed a fine golden needle, and immediately gave the old lady the needle.

"The old lady is okay. She just breathed in some smoke and was frightened. I prescribed some medicines for clearing the lungs and relieving asthma. I decocted them with clean water, once in the morning and evening. Drinking them for three or four days is enough."

Zhang Zong sincerely thanked Dr. Sun.

The latter stroked his snow-white beard: "Don't thank me, I'm only entrusted by the whole person. If you are a doctor, thank the adult next door. He has been waiting for a long time."

Zhang Zong put a thin blanket on his grandmother, took a deep breath, and opened the door of the next room.

The room was burning with soothing incense, and there was also an exquisitely crafted screen.

Embroidered on the screen is a hunting picture. An extremely majestic saker falcon swooped down from a high altitude, and its sharp minions rushed towards the prey on the ground.

Looking at this lifelike embroidery, Zhang Zong suddenly had a strange thought in his mind: whether he and the people behind the screen are like the prey on the screen and the hunting falcon.

But he soon lost his mind as much as the people behind the screen came out.

When court officials saw the emperor, they only had to bow their heads, but Zhang Zong bowed and bowed his head to the people in front of him: "Weichen Zhang Zong pays homage to your majesty, and Xie's savior and grandmother today."

This is Zhang Zong's kowtow to himself as the person being saved. No matter what the emperor's intention is, it is an indisputable fact that he rescued him and his grandmother from the eagle dog of the princess.

If Yu Linqi didn't arrive in time, after tonight, in the small courtyard of Dongjiao Alley, there are two dry bones that were burned to charcoal besides the broken wall.

Qiao Qing held his hands behind his back and looked at the young official who dared to challenge the princess and was nearly killed.

"I heard that the first two days ago, the love slave of the princess frightened the horse in the downtown area, so you killed him."

"That person has violated the Great Qi Law. Article 3 of Volume X of Qi Law shall not be allowed to run horses in the busy city, and shall not harm the innocent."

Qiao Qing decided to look at him and pressed further: "You know that is the Elder Princess Ainu. He is dead. No one can replace him to please the Elder Princess. If you kill him, you are offending the Elder Princess."

That person was actually the guest of the grand princess, a very pleasing face, for the man, she even drove away several faces.

Zhang Zong said: "There was no princess in the carriage that day, and the carriage ran into the front in violation of the law."

The mother of the little boy was trampled to death by a horse's hoof in order to protect her child.

The face of the eldest princess is just a grassroots. Killing pays for his life, Zhang Zong does everything in accordance with the law.

Qiao Qing then asked him: "You are not afraid of offending the princess, she angered you, took your official position, and hurt your grandmother. As a capital official, you should have heard her temper."

Zhang Zong's abilities are naturally good for being able to get into the position of Tingwei as a poor student.

But Zhang Zong became a Ting Weiping, and he was just a small official. Even though he was appreciated by his superior, in the court, his appreciation would not be able to protect him.

If the eldest princess Ainu is guilty of a family like Qiao Xuan, even if she likes her lover again, the eldest princess will only reveal the matter lightly, or she might prepare a gift. Sent to Qiao's house and apologized for his own people.

At most, he kept things in his heart, and when Qiao Xuan fell into disarray in the future, the new hatred and the old hatred would be counted together.

But Zhang Zong is just from a poor family, a Ting Weiping with six hundred stone salaries! Such an official killed her person, and that would have compromised her face as a princess.

The eldest princess really likes the face, otherwise it will save her face, she has many ways to toss this oily salt, as hard as a rock, no matter how angry, she will send People came directly to Zhang Zong's life.

Zhang Zong said: "Murder pays for life, both crimes are punished together, and the law shall be executed. The minister executes the punishment according to the law and does not regret it."

But thinking of his grandmother, Zhang Zong looked solemnly: "If the minister's grandmother dies because of the eldest princess, the minister may try to kill the princess, avenge her grandmother, and then surrender to the Dali Temple."

Qiao Qing became angry: "You are really daring! How dare you say in front of me that you want to kill my aunt!"

Zhang Zong knelt down again with a thump, lowering his head: "It was just the worst hypothesis, but your Majesty saved me, so things like that won't happen."

He was betting that if the emperor wanted him to die, he would just stand by and watch what happened today, but Yu Lin took his hand and saved the two of their grandparents.

The emperor even arranged for the imperial physician to see his grandmother and gave him the opportunity to meet alone.

Although the emperor was angry, Zhang Zong was not afraid. He thought calmly that he is standing here today, which means that the eldest princess is not that important in the emperor’s heart. Of a temptation.

Qiao Qing was indeed a fake anger. She looked down at Zhang Zong and was very satisfied with his calmness and reason.

The hyena she raises must be smart and sensible, able to understand what she is saying, and good at catching prey.

As for the princess who had feuded with Zhang Zong, Qiao Qing didn't hate her, but she didn't really like it.

This eldest princess is the prince’s real aunt, and when alive she liked to give her half-brother, Qiao Qing’s cheap father, to a woman to please him.

Her rights were given to her by her father and elder brother. When Qiao Qing’s grandfather was on the throne, he loved this daughter very much, so the eldest princess also had a decent maiden army in his hands. Very prestigious on weekdays.

The eldest princess died when her first husband was twenty-seven years old. She did not remarry afterwards, but she raised a lot of amused faces in the princess mansion.

She herself is a very clever and swift person, and the people under her are also a little arrogant and domineering.

When Empress Tian was still alive, she had a good relationship with the princess, but the princess was very smooth and did not easily make promises to Empress Tian.

She felt that they were all the heirs of her younger brother, one occupying the orthodoxy of the heavenly family, another one of the elder elder, and one of the eldest son's favor. Until the end, everyone has the possibility of succession.

So no one can blame the princess. Qiao Qing's cheap brother didn't die, and when Madam Ding was arrogant, she gave charcoal in the snow and said a few good things to the poor prince.

This seems to be a speculator, but this kind of wall-to-wall grass is destined to not get Qiao Qing's sincere attention.

After all, she is not without rivals, in case the eldest princess stabbed her in the back someday.

After Qiao Qing succeeded to the throne, she tried her best not to move anyone who had no enemies. The princess was quite calm on the face, and Qiao Qing didn't intend to move her.

As long as the aunt does not give her a woman, she is willing to continue to enjoy her wealth for the princess.

Therefore, during this period of time, the life of the princess was quite moist, with all the prestige and honor she should have.

It's just that Qiao Qing didn't expect that this arrogant and self-willed aunt would be so bold and bold.

Qiao Qing looked at the calm Zhang Zong, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: "I actually heard you from my aunt."

Zhang Zong looked up as expected, Qingjun's face with great doubts.

"She entered the palace and said that a dull little official killed her love slave and let me call her the shots. As soon as I heard that she was right, I sent someone to your house to see the situation and vent my aunt. Unexpectedly, Yu Lin Qi was all fools, who made his own claim for me and brought you two back."

Of course, this was Zhang Zong's remark. She did understand this little official because of the princess's affairs.

Because he heard about Zhang Zong's fear of power, Qiao Qing checked his information and felt that this person was suitable.

People from humble backgrounds can become cruel after they have rights. But cruel staff are not cruel, and they can be regarded as rock-hearted. They need to be outstanding in their own way, not stupid stupid people who just stab people everywhere.

After listening to Zhang Zong’s words and deeds at the time, she had an idea at the time, and wanted to see this little Ting Weiping alone.

On the same day, she arranged for someone to invite Zhang Zong to come out.

As a result, Qiao Qing did not expect that the people she arranged played such a big role, and they happened to save Zhang Zong's life.

I really don't know whether to say that Qiao Qing was lucky and the person who wanted him did not die, or Zhang Zong was lucky and escaped.

Zhang Zong was shocked when he heard this, and suddenly raised his head, but saw that the emperor looked at him with a very calm expression, and the corners of his lips also smiled.

The emperor was born well, and it is even more innocent to smile like this.

Yes, maybe the emperor didn't intend to save him at first, but he wouldn't have come to kill him. The imperial doctor who appeared here to see his grandmother is the best evidence.

In this way, Zhang Zongxin settled down again.

Qiao Qing stretched out his hand towards Zhang Zong who was kneeling on the ground: "Okay, you should kneel enough, get up."

Supported by the emperor, Zhang Zong quickly retracted his hands and stood up, perhaps because his legs were still trembling after kneeling for a long time.

Qiao Qing said again: "I am very fortunate today that Zhang Aiqing's life was saved by me."

She likes the sentence just now that you should cut down according to the law, all scholars, and Confucianism speaks of great principles.

But without legal constraints, relying on morality to convince people would mess up the rules. Compared with benevolent governance, Qiao Qing obviously needs iron and blood to open the way for her and lay the foundation for the introduction of the New Deal in the future.

Zhang Zong acts in accordance with the rule of law, is a thorough jurist, and she feels very suitable.

In a society of imperial power, the emperor and the common people are guilty of the same crime. In fact, it is destined to be just empty talk.

The common people offended the emperor to be punishable, the emperor was angry, and corpses millions of people, no one can accuse him of a crime.

At most, it just says that the emperor is not caring enough and is a tyrant who ignores the people.

Whether it is a pioneer of law, or simply to please her and strictly implement the law, it is all for her, the supreme ruler of the Qi Dynasty.

Qiao Qing said in a more sincere and sincere tone: "Although I am the emperor, sitting in that high position, I can see more things than ordinary people, but I only have one pair of eyes and two ears. I can hear and see. Things are limited after all..."

She paused, and said loudly: "I don't know if Zhang Qing is willing to be my ears and eyes, distinguish the black and white of the world from right and wrong, defend the law of my great Qi, and also make a sea of ​​clear rivers."

Can be willing to be a knife in her hand, cutting off the thorns of the road ahead for her.

She gave Zhang Zong a chance to retreat: "If you don't want to, I will send you to a place away from Kyoto, and take your grandmother with you, and you will live well."

According to Zhang Zong's character, if he becomes a local official, he will certainly not be afraid of local tycoons, and be a cruel official in the eyes of a family and a good official in the eyes of the people.

The scholar dies for his confidant, regardless of whether the emperor is true or false, today Qiao Qing's remarks completely touched Zhang Zong's heart.

Zhang Zong's heart is already surging, and if it weren't for him, he's a bit sensible, he'd be afraid of tears in his eyes.

He did not say much, and bowed again, his voice choked and left three words: "The minister is willing!"

Even if the sword of the emperor would be stabbed by thorns, and it might break the blade at any time and be abandoned by the owner, Zhang Zong would not make the choice to refuse.

Because he was going to go to court the next day, Qiao Qing did not leave Zhang Zongbing to talk at night, but asked him to take a good rest and recharge his energy so as to better contribute to the people of Daqi.

Qiao Qing said with certainty: "There is only one Zhang Zong. If you break down, I will not be able to concoct a new one. You teach me how to be worthy of Mrs. Zhang and the people of the world in the future."

Sustained and healthy development is the last word. She doesn't want to have just taken a sharp edge, because the knife is too hard to make the edge.

Of course, there is another very important reason, that is, Qiao Qing's health is not good, staying up late is prone to sudden death, and she refuses to stay up unnecessary nights for the courtiers.

Zhang Zong's house had been burned, and it was impossible to go back at this time, so he accompanied his grandmother and stayed temporarily in this hot spring villa to rest.

Qiao Qing returned to the palace, got up early the next morning, and fought with the old foxes for an hour in the morning. Weary and left the chaotic hall.

When she returned to Tianlu Pavilion, she regained her vitality and wrote the zhezi for appointing Zhang Zong in one go, and sent someone to declare the decree.

Zhang Zong's residence was too shabby, even if the house could still live in after a repair, she couldn't let Zhang Zong continue to live there.

Anyway, there are many houses under her name. It is enough to choose the smallest and least valuable one for Zhang Zong and his grandmother to live with.

No, she shouldn't have sent this house. The princess sent Zhang Zong's house to be burned down, so she should pay for it.

It's great to not have to spend money on your own, Qiao Qing knocked on the tabletop: "Go and ask the princess to come over."

The eldest princess Qiao Yue, whose title is Wangshu, used the name of the moon **** in the rumor to give her daughter the title, which shows the emperor's love for this princess.

The great princess just got the news, knowing that her servant was imprisoned in Dali Temple last night, on the grounds that she murdered the imperial court order officer.

She didn't worry that these servants would bite things on her head. The confession of these people was just a death. If she fell on her head, she would have nothing to do, but their whole family would die.

But in the end, it was her own servant. In order to avenge her beloved lover, Princess Wangshu felt that they were useless, but she still planned to pinch her nose to carry these wastes back, so that she could not lose her face.

As a result, the person who turned the emperor reported again, saying that he wanted to see her today.

One side is the servant, and the other is the nephew who is the master. Who should I see first?

The eldest princess got off the carriage: "Let me go and change clothes, and then go to see your majesty."

She was too arrogant. She was going to suppress the arrogance of those people in Dali Temple, but now she is going to meet the emperor, which is really inappropriate.

After entering the palace, the princess made a noise first, intending to sue the wicked first: "Your Majesty, the concubine woke up this morning, and she learned that someone suppressed the concubine's servant to see the official last night. They didn't treat me or imperial us. Keep it in the eye."

Qiao Qing looked at her cheap aunt. In her memory, she always dressed very brightly and publicly, like a ball of flame, hot and eye-catching, and if she was careless, she would burn people's hands.

However, she is dressed a lot today. In fact, the materials of the clothes are all top grades that can only be used by officials, but the color is light and looks simple and elegant.

This dress is a bit familiar, yes, Empress Tian will soon die, Princess Wangshu wears this dress to give warmth to the former prince.

The eldest princess is really a smart person, smarter than she thought.

Qiao Qing likes to talk to smart people. She has given a seat to the princess, and her attitude is very kind.

It's just that her words are not at all kind, but very piercing.

"The servants that my aunt said were locked in Dali Temple, but the murderer who set fire to kill people in Dongjiao Alley yesterday."

The yamen of Dali Temple and Jing Zhaoyin are different. Basically, they manage serious cases, as well as matters related to officials.

The princess' eyelids twitched, and she suddenly felt bad.

Qiao Qing said again: "It's a coincidence that I was worried about government affairs. Yesterday I tossed and turned and could not sleep all night, so I wanted to see my Chang'an City. When I wandered into the suburbs of Beijing, I saw a small alley blazing into the sky. I thought it was a heavenly creature. Dry, accidentally caught a fire, I didn't expect the fire to be man-made."

Needless to say, the eldest princess can figure out the rest.

Even if the emperor travels in the city of Chang'an, it is impossible to leave him alone.

He noticed a fire in the city, so he asked the guards around him to put out the fire, and then just caught her servants who set fire.

Waste, a bunch of waste, how can people come and get personal stolen goods. No wonder the people who spread the news froze, and no wonder the case did not go to Jing Zhao Yin first, but to Dali Temple, and it took so long for the news to reach her princess mansion.

The eldest princess's prestige is no longer so prestigious, can she rival her today? Obviously not.

The princess had a decision in her heart, and she hid her face: "The servants in the house, because they have lost their master, have made such a big mistake. The concubine is ashamed, and only cares about the grief, without noticing that the servants will restrain the servants in the house. ."

She gave up those servants, but described them as loyal servants.

Qiao Qing gave her a face and no longer cares about the truth of the matter with the princess.

Even if the eldest princess instructed, but there is no evidence, who can take the eldest princess.

The eldest princess was right in saying that the royal majesty should not be violated.

"The hearts of the people are unpredictable, and my aunt didn't expect them to do such a thing. It was just that Zhang's family was rescued, but the yard in Dongjiao Alley was burned down. Zhang's family is poor and I don't know where to stay in the future. "

They are all smart people, and the princess said: "There are several houses in the concubine's name, so I should pay Master Zhang one."

Qiao Qing was very satisfied with what the princess said: "It doesn't need to be too big, it's better to be closer to Dali Temple."

After returning, the eldest princess brought gifts, some precious medicinal materials, and a title deed, and personally came to apologize, which can be said to give a lot of face.

Zhang Zong did not refuse the princess's apologize, but his attitude was still very cold.

He knew very well that if the emperor hadn't come forward, the noble princess wouldn't stand here to treat him with peace.

When the eldest princess returned home, she lifted a vase and threw it to the ground.

hateful! This insufferable Zhang Zong is hateful, and the face of the emperor oppressing her is also hateful.

She took two deep breaths and said, "Prepare paper and pen."

She wants to write to her brother Wang, so she can tell her own suffering.
