Chapter 231, caught
Chapter 231, caught
At night, the sound of neat horseshoes and footsteps resounded on the street.
Someone was curious about what happened outside, opened a gap in the window and took a look outside. Seeing so many officers and soldiers below, he hastily closed the window again.
"Puff puff-"
The gate of Prince Ming's Mansion was slammed, and the gatekeeper noticed something was wrong, so he immediately sent people inside to report it.Steward Cui got the news, hurried to the courtyard where their princess lived, and reported the matter to the master.
"Are there a lot of officers and soldiers coming outside?"
"Yes, master."
At this moment, Qiao Yi had just finished dinner and was petting their big cat, when he heard that officers and soldiers had come to their Ming Palace, his hands paused.The hand on the top of the head didn't move, the little white tiger let out a grunt, and pressed its head against the palm of the master, wanting the master to continue to caress
He heard that the emperor was not in good health, so he stopped going to court for two days.But the last time he went into the palace to check the emperor's pulse, he found that although the emperor's body was poisonous, it wouldn't happen so quickly.
Could it be the emperor's heart attack?But now it seems that someone couldn't wait any longer and started attacking the emperor.
It's probably not a good thing for officers and soldiers to come to their Prince Ming's mansion at this time.
"Since everyone has already arrived at the door, and there is no way to hide from the left and right, then go open the door and ask them what's the matter." Qiao Yi thought about it in her heart and said.
They closed the door and couldn't hide here for a while, and they couldn't hide for a lifetime. Maybe others thought they were afraid, hiding in this palace and not daring to see people.His intuition told him that those people outside were coming for Ming Palace, to be precise, they were coming for him.
Whoever made their prince not at home, only he, Princess Ming, is easy to bully.
"Yes." Steward Cui replied, and led the people outside, and asked them to open the door of the palace.
Their people had already surrounded the entire Ming Palace.
"Boom bang bang-"
"Open the door, if you don't open the door, we will smash the door open."
"Come on, prepare to smash the door!"
They took pictures for so long, but the door didn't open. Commander Zhang, the leader of the team, was about to have someone knock the door open, when he heard the sound of the door opening unexpectedly.
"Yo, the door is finally opened. I thought you were hiding inside and dare not open the door." Seeing the door finally opened, Commander Zhang said aloud.
"Who are you?" Steward Cui led the people out, stood at the gate of the palace, glanced at the general in front of him with disdain, and asked, "Do you know what this place is? Presumptuous place!"
"I know that this is the palace of Prince Ming, old man. I was ordered to arrest the murderer. That concubine or concubine in your mansion poisoned the emperor with the intention of murdering the emperor. This is an arrest order." Commander Zhang showed With a arrest order, he raised his chin and said arrogantly: "If you want to know the old man, don't stop me."
"Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
"It's nonsense!" Steward Cui didn't care about the arrest order, he didn't even look at it, "Just take a piece of paper and dare to come to the door of the Ming Palace to be presumptuous, open your mouth to arrest people, you have the ability to take the emperor's order!" The decree is coming."
"Okay, you old bastard! Can you call the emperor?"
"Since your toast is inconsistent and you have to drink a fine wine, don't blame me for being rude. Come, let me go in and search, and let me catch him." Commander Zhang made a gesture, and the two men following him The team made a gesture and was about to rush into the palace.
"Oh!"
"Zhuzi is rude!" Eunuch Cui was furious, he took a step forward, raised his hand, and sent him flying.
Commander Zhang didn't even have a chance to resist, so he was slapped out by Eunuch Cui. He fell face down and fell to the ground with a slap. One sentence: "You, you old and immortal thing, dare to beat the court officials and arrest them all, arrest them all."
"My lord, I help you up, little one." The two following soldiers stepped forward and helped their leader up.
"Give it to me, give it to me, grab this old thing for me!" Commander Zhang was helped up, apparently slapped back
Not afraid.
"Hmph, it's been so many years since no one dared to talk so much in front of our family and still be able to live well, you have to be thankful that our family
My temper is better now! "Eunuch Cui snorted and looked at the group of things in front of him with disdain.
I think back when our family went to fight with the late emperor, you little things were still in the mother's womb!Now you dare to be so presumptuous in front of our family.
''puff--"
Qiao Yi, who was inside, learned that the big butler of their family had beaten him, and the tea he drank spewed out in one gulp. He laughed and said, "Haha... Our big butler is still mighty, and the uncle is still your uncle."
Those shrimp soldiers and shrimp generals are obviously not enough to see in front of Uncle Cui. Does he want to watch a good show here before going out?
"Hey, young master, are you dirty or not? You can drink tea as long as you drink it. Why do you spit it out?" Chu Liu was so angry that his young master sprayed his face all over his face with a sip of tea.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean it, just wipe it, wipe it." Seeing that she had offended her little slave, Qiao Yi hurriedly handed over a handkerchief.
No need on the sixth day, raised his hand, wiped his face with his sleeve, and said angrily: "Master, it's already this time, you can still laugh."
"What can I do if I don't laugh? Do you still want me to cry?" Qiao Yi shook her head and said.
Everyone in the room looked worried. Wang Dahu stood at the door and looked out, holding his longbow and arrows in his hands. This posture would sieve anyone who dared to approach their master's yard.
The two servant girls, Zizhu and Chunxue, held their hands nervously, with worried expressions on their faces.
Wei San stood beside their master and said: "Master, why don't I protect you and leave first, go outside and take shelter outside, and escort you back when this place is stable."
Qiao Yi glanced at Wei San, shook his head, and said, "I'm going to run away, leaving you here?" He really couldn't do this kind of thing.
"Master..." Wei San still wanted to persuade.
"I know, you don't need to persuade me, I won't leave you all and run away." Knowing what Wei San wanted to say, Qiao Yi interrupted him and asked, "How long will it take for your lords?" to come back?"
"It will take at least seven or eight days for the prince to come back to the capital." Wei San calculated the time in his heart and said.
As soon as they discovered the conspiracy of King An and Lu Xiang, they asked Brother Qing to deliver a letter to the prince. Judging by the speed at which Brother Qing flew over, the prince had already received the letter at this time, and he should be returning to Beijing. on the way.
However, the journey back to the capital from there is far away, and it will take about ten days to come back even if it is soon.
"Well, that's fine. I'll support him here first, and deal with the rest when he comes back." Qiao Yi put down the cup in his hand, stood up, looked around at the few people in the room, and said : "During the time I'm not at home, you have to help me take care of my home and take care of Ah Nian."
"Oh, yes, there is also the medical hall. Send people to protect Ming Yi and them, and tell them to withdraw from the medical hall. Don't open the door anytime soon."
It's not guaranteed that these people will go to the medical center to find trouble. If they lose a little money, it will be a small matter. If they hurt someone, it won't be worth it.
"Okay." Wei San replied.
"Ang Wuxie Xiaonian also knew that it was his name being called, so he stood up with his front legs resting on his master's body.
Master, where are you going, take Ah Nian away with you~
"Be good, take good care of your house at home, don't go outside. You've grown up now, it's a bit awkward to pretend to be a kitten." Qiao Yi touched the little white tiger's head, explained a few words, and was about to go outside out.
The people outside were blocking the door, and they still wanted him to follow them around. If they couldn't catch him today, those people wouldn't let it go.Once he starts to fight, there will definitely be unnecessary casualties. Those are human lives. He has worked so hard to save people on weekdays. These people kill people like chopping melons. It's really...
"Master, where are you going?" Chu Liu grabbed their young master's sleeve with one hand and asked pitifully.
"Someone invited me to drink tea. I'll be back in a few days." Qiao Yi pulled back his sleeves and walked outside.
"Master, can't you, don't you want to go?" Chu Liu followed behind their young master, not wanting their young master to drink tea.Qiao Yi looked at this silly boy helplessly. If they didn't want to go, they wouldn't go, then would he still need to go?
Chu Liu also knew this truth, she lowered her head and said nothing, with an expression on her face that she was about to cry.
"Young Master, it's not like he's gone and won't come back. What are you doing with such a mournful face?" Qiao Yi looked at the few who were about to cry, with a look of dumbfounding.
Wei San led the people to follow behind their master, Chu Liu, Wang Dahu and two maidservants followed behind, each of them was deeply moved.
Silent.
The little white tiger chased after him and stuck to his master, trying to trip him while walking and prevent him from going out.
When they went out to the door, what they saw was the scene of two people and horses facing each other with swords drawn.
Qiao Yi raised his hand, and the people on their side put down the weapons in their hands, looked at the general who was being supported, and knew that this was the one who had been beaten by their chief steward just now, and said, "Let's Your people put down their weapons, I will go with you, and your people evacuate from Ming Palace."
"Impossible, you rebels intend to murder the emperor and even beat the court officials!" Commander Zhang was beaten up just now, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. distortion.
"You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. Before there is any evidence, you'd better be cautious about such things as traitors and murdering the emperor. Otherwise, I can sue you for defamation!" Qiao Yi eyed With a murderous look, he glanced at the man.
Anyway, what he meant is already very clear, if you want me to go with you, it’s okay, then let your people withdraw, and the people in Ming Palace are not vegetarians, at worst, let’s have a fight.
"Put down your weapons, and let everyone return!" Zhang Tong took the people in the Ming Palace to no avail.He is only in charge of arresting people today, if he can't even do this, he doesn't need to be an official.
Seeing this, Commander Zhang raised his hand and asked the soldiers behind to put down their weapons.
"Princess Ming, please!" Commander Zhang made a gesture of please.
Qiao Yi looked at the blue and purple face of this person, and endured so much that he didn't laugh, then turned to look at Butler Cui, and said, "Leave this place to the big steward for you to look after, make sure the people in the house All is well. I'll be fine until I get back."
"Yes, the slave will definitely live up to the expectations of the master." Steward Cui took a deep breath, bowed and said.
Seeing that these people wanted to put shackles on him, Qiao Yi took a look, with a calm smile on his face, and didn't stretch out his hands.Seeing that Eunuch Cui was still looking at them when he turned his head, Commander Zhang was overwhelmed with cowardice, raised his hand, and did not let anyone put Princess Ming in prison again.
Everyone in Prince Ming's Mansion watched their master being taken away, and the two servant girls, Chu Liu and Zizhu Chunxue, couldn't help wiping away their tears
"Go back to the mansion, close the door!" Chief Steward Cui spoke, turned around and walked back to Prince Ming's Mansion, and the rest of the people followed their chief steward back to the mansion.
After waiting for everyone to enter, the gate of Prince Ming's Mansion was closed.
