Chapter 287 Are You Kneeling?

Princess Pingyang walked into the Yamen lobby.

Standing in the center, with her hands behind her back, she glanced left and right.

The master is clever, so he hurriedly moved the grand master's chair by himself, and dusted the cushions and pillows to make it comfortable.

"Please." Master said.

The eldest princess laughed: "Tang Cho's men? What's their name?"

The master replied: "The eldest princess, the younger one's surname is He, and the single name has a single character, even if it is uniform."

Tang Tzu raised his foot and entered the lobby.

As soon as he came in, he saw such an appearance, which gave Mr. He a hard look.

idiot?
No matter how noble this man is, he is still a suspected traitor.

If you are so eager to please her, who knows how you will be implicated later.

Master He was stared at by Tang Zhou, feeling uncomfortable.

If you don't move the chair and don't serve tea, should the eldest princess sit on the magistrate's chair?
Forget it, this is not the time to gossip with Tang Choi, Master He turned around to prepare tea, and asked a yamen servant to move a chair for Tang Choi.

The eldest princess was sitting in the hall, unless she patted the gavel to start the interrogation, otherwise Tang Choi definitely couldn't sit under the plaque hung high by the mirror.

He had to be honest and stand under the eldest princess, waiting for the seat.

Thinking about it, the eldest princess would let Tang Zhou sit down.

Tang Cho has been an official for many years, and he is not a person who does not understand the rules.

The appearance of the eldest princess really surprised him. For a while, he didn't know how to treat her.

Grabbing it directly is not enough; offering a confession is not going to work either...

On the contrary, Princess Pingyang came prepared, and I am afraid that she has prepared several baskets of various speech skills.

Thinking of this, Tang Zhifu secretly sighed.

What are you thinking about.

The scene is handed over, just listen to the story told by the eldest princess.

"Elder princess," Tang Choi gave up all the guidance, speaking skills, and rhythm during the interrogation of the prisoner, and went straight to the point, "You really didn't rebel?"

The eldest princess glanced at Tang Chip.

Tang Zhao returned a reluctant smile.

The conversation was handed out, and it has nothing to do with him for the time being, it is the platform of the eldest princess alone.

"Sit down and talk," said the eldest princess.

Tang Tuo glanced at the chair brought by the yamen servant, and was a little moved for a moment.

It's okay, he can sit and listen to the story.

The tea made by Mr. He was also brought along with a plate of soybean cake.

"Qiyang is no better than the capital city, and it doesn't have such fine dim sum," Mr. He said, "You will try it soon."

Tang Cho lacked interest in pastries.

Of course, the most suitable must be a plate of pumpkin seeds.

It's a pity that in this situation, it is impossible to really take out a handful.

"What rebellion?" The eldest princess raised her phoenix eyes, "Who am I rebelling for?"

Tang Chou smiled apologetically.

This question could not be answered at the gate of the city, nor can it be answered now.

The Eldest Princess didn't want Tang Tzu to answer clearly, and asked, "What do you mean by passing the decree in Beijing?"

Tang Cho didn't answer, but asked the master to fetch the documents.

The eldest princess glanced.

The above content was almost the same as she expected.

The three families escaped from Beijing, intending to rebel, and were severely arrested.

But there is no "shoot to kill".

In Zhao Li's mind, he must have wished to kill them immediately, but he had no choice but to focus on words.

Laohou, his father and son and Nianzhi are still at the border. They made great contributions not long ago. Now there is a change in Beijing. Even if it is a sign of "rebellion", the court can arrest people, but they have to make excuses.

When a person dies, a child is born, and there is no room for repentance.

What if there is some misunderstanding?

What's more, the capital is the capital, and the lower state capital doesn't know what happened in the capital.

The government officials acted according to the will, and the common people murmured in their hearts, everyone had an account.

Before there is no "iron evidence" that convinces the common people, killing the hero without giving the hero a chance to defend himself seems to be a thunderous method, but it is definitely not a good idea.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

"If the people don't agree with each other, they will perish."

Based on Princess Pingyang's understanding of those old censors, they could stand on the Golden Luan Hall and scold for an hour.

It can't be down to words, the scale of doing things is all in the various government offices that are handled.

The eldest princess looked at Tang Chip.

Qiyang Mansion must be a place where everyone wants to be exterminated.

"That good little brother of mine didn't even ask, but actually thought I would turn against him?" The eldest princess pretended to be angry, and said, "It broke my heart!"

It's not true that Tang Cho accepts this, and it's not true if he doesn't.

When Master He saw this, he acted as an eloquent: "The Marquis of Yongning and the Duke of Dingguo..."

"They are them, and I am me." The eldest princess said.

Tang Cho understood it as soon as he heard it.

This means that the crime of rebellion has been pushed to others.

shouldn't be...

There is a female official next to the eldest princess, isn't she the aunt of Ding Guogong?

Fall out?
At the back of the lobby, outside the corner door leading to the backyard, the Sixth Old Master was listening with pricked ears.

Seeing that the eldest princess didn't get to the point, and Tang Chi didn't urge her, the sixth old master was very anxious.

Not caring about anything else, he lifted the curtain and stepped into the lobby.

"Eldest Princess," the Sixth Old Master said, "I told you in Beijing that your carriage left the capital that day, and the gate guards followed your orders..."

"You know it quite well," said Princess Pingyang, looking sideways at him, "The guard has obeyed my orders, has he seen my men?"

The sixth old man was questioned.

There was no mention of this in the news.

"Even if I personally said to open the city gate..." Princess Pingyang suddenly stood up while speaking.

No one saw her footsteps clearly, she floated behind the Sixth Old Master.

A dagger was placed on the sixth old master's neck.

The eldest princess laughed wantonly: "I let you kneel down, do you kneel?"

The sixth old man was almost too frightened by her to continue. Fortunately, he was not confused and saw clearly that the dagger was not out of its sheath.

He stopped Tang Cho and the others in a panic, and smiled dryly: "Kneeling, of course you have to kneel. You are the eldest princess, without these things, there should be thousands of people worshiping."

The eldest princess put the dagger back and sat back on the chair.

"Don't kneel," she said, "In terms of seniority, I have to call you uncle."

The sixth old man pursed his lips heavily.

Since he "recognized" him, what the eldest princess did just now was simply a blow to his authority.

He endured it and didn't care about it: "So, you mean, there was a knife on your neck at that time, and you were forced to open the city gate?"

"Almost," said the eldest princess, "They want to leave Beijing, and they will use me to open the way."

The sixth old man didn't believe her words: "Where are you all these days? Where are the two rebellious families?"

The eldest princess said: "After leaving the capital, I traveled all the way west. I was controlled by others and could only obey. It was not until I entered Chun County that I had to stop because of the official road."

"Pure County of Guanzhou?"

"Yes," said the eldest princess, "Guanzhou set up checkpoints along the road, so they can only break them up and act in batches.

Some went south, some went north, and some went west.

They discussed it behind my back, but I don't know exactly how to divide it.

I was led westward to the border between Guanzhou and Qiyang, but they didn't keep track of me, so I ran away. "

Sixth old man: ...

　Thanks to the book friend Xiaoyuanzi, deepforest, a steamed dumpling, and today I will work hard to reward Xiaoyao.
