Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 275 Meng Xin's Decision
Knowing that Meng Xin and the others had been brought back, Gao Ming immediately set off with Hegan Chengji to the barracks outside the city.

Although Gao Ming knew that Meng Xin wasn't targeting him in this incident, it was a fact that he was tripped and fell to the ground and suffered internal injuries, so the debt must be settled.

"Damn it, this stinky girl is really lawless, almost threw my shit out, this time I caught her, if I don't let her see some blood, I will write my name upside down!"

With such thoughts in mind, Gao Ming's face was full of vigor along the way, which made Hegan Chengji tremble with fear.

"It seems that His Royal Highness is really angry. Alas, it seems that Meng Chao and the others are in danger this time."

Seeing that Gao Ming's expression was not very good, He Gan Chengji didn't dare to say a word along the way, until Gao Ming got off the chariot, he stepped forward to accompany him with a smile.

"His Royal Highness, please!"

"Ok!"

Soon, Gao Ming followed Hegan Chengji to the commander's tent in the middle of the barracks, and after Gao Ming entered, Hegan Chengji saluted him again.

"His Royal Highness later, I will go and bring them all here."

Hearing his words, Gao Ming nodded immediately.

"Well, let's go, but other people don't need to bring them, just bring Meng Chao and his daughter over!"

"Yes!"

After receiving Gao Ming's order, Hegan Chengji immediately had people bring the tied-up Meng Chao father and daughter to the camp.

When Gao Ming saw Meng Xin for the first time, he was also amazed by her appearance.

One must know that Tang Dynasty did not have such superb makeup skills as later generations, so apart from Su Wan'er and Wu Mei in the palace, the only woman who can make a brilliant and stunning woman is this Meng Xin.

"Beautiful lady, how can I be a thief!"

Hearing Gao Ming's exclamation, Meng Xin spoke hastily.

"His Royal Highness, last time the little girl was rude to His Royal Highness. This is all the fault of the little girl alone, and has nothing to do with my father. I hope His Highness will let my father go, please!"

As she spoke, she lowered her head towards Gao Ming.

As soon as Meng Xin finished speaking, Meng Chao spoke.

"His Royal Highness, it is the sinful minister who taught the daughter that he has no way to make His Royal Highness suffer. I hope His Royal Highness will forgive her this time for the sake of her youth and ignorance. Therefore, the old man is willing to bear the responsibility."

After finishing speaking, Meng Xin slammed her head on the ground, making a crisp "dong".

Looking at the father and daughter who were tied up with ropes in front of them, and did not forget to help each other get rid of the crime, they immediately turned away with their hands behind their backs, and turned around after a while.

"Meng Chao, you really have no way to teach a daughter. In order to avenge Li Yun, this girl kidnapped King Liang and tripped the prince's horse with a horse rope, which caused me to hurt my internal organs. I taught such a lawless daughter, this prince! Hit you with thirty sticks, will you accept it?"

In the Tang Dynasty, there were five criminal laws: whipping, staff, imprisonment, flow, and death.

Flogging, that is, beating a prisoner with thorny thorns, is the lightest punishment; and rod, that is, beating with sticks, is the next level of punishment.

To be a disciple is to be reduced to a slave; and to be exiled is to be exiled. People in the Tang Dynasty paid attention to the relocation of their homeland, so they were exiled to remote areas. In the Tang Dynasty, it was a criminal law second only to the death penalty.

As for the death penalty, there are many methods, such as beheading, splitting, beheading, hanging, etc. If you are an official of the fifth rank or above, you can also enjoy such decent methods of death as poisoning and suicide.

At first, when Gao Ming blamed Meng Xin for his crimes, Meng Chao showed a face full of despair, because according to what Meng Xin did, it would not be an exaggeration to cut him to pieces, and his father, at least, would end up in exile, but he heard Gao Ming say that It's just that when he hit him with thirty sticks, he was stunned immediately.

"Thirty rods?"

Seeing that Meng Chao was stunned, Gao Ming frowned immediately.

"Meng Chao, let me ask you again, the crown prince beat you thirty sticks, will you accept it?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Meng Chao immediately came to his senses, and he immediately nodded his head like a chicken chopping rice.

"Submit! The guilty minister thank you His Royal Highness for your kindness!"

Meng Chao has also been an official for many years, and the criminal laws of the Tang Dynasty are also clear. In his opinion, since Gao Ming only fought him thirty battles, Meng Xin would be sentenced to prison at most, even though he was reduced to a slave. , but at least alive, it's better than being beheaded.

But he understood, but it didn't mean that Meng Xin also understood. When Gao Ming said that he wanted to beat her father thirty sticks, she immediately became unhappy.

"His Royal Highness, I did all these things alone. My father doesn't know anything. If you want to hit me, hit me and let my father go!"

As soon as Meng Xin said this, Meng Chao gasped.

"Hiss...Xin Erxiu was rude to His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is already extrajudicially merciful, please thank His Highness soon!"

"I do not!"

Seeing Meng Chao's frightened expression, Meng Xin shook his head, then turned his head and met Gao Ming's eyes without showing any weakness.

"My father also said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a wise person. I didn't expect to see you today and find out that these are all rumors. You are clearly a foolish person, hmph!"

Hearing Meng Xin's words, everyone present, including Meng Chao, couldn't help but turn pale with shock.

"shut up!"

"presumptuous!"

"Hugh is so rude to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Looking at the people filled with righteous indignation, Gao Ming immediately stretched out his palm towards them, signaling them not to speak, and after everyone was quiet, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"Hmph! How dare you use violent tactics against me? Let me tell you, I'm still going to do it!"

After speaking, Gao Ming shouted towards the people below.

"Looks like this little girl won't do well if she doesn't teach her a lesson today. Someone, come and find me some thorns!"

"Yes!"

Soon, a hundred cavalry guard came over with a thorny bramble in his hands. In order to facilitate Gao Ming's grasp, he carefully wrapped one end of the bramble with cloth.

After Gao Ming took the Vitex, he grinned at Meng Xin.

"Hey hey hey...Little girl, are you scared? Let me tell you, it's still too late to beg for mercy!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Meng Xin immediately raised her chin, and then let out a cold snort from her nose.

"Humph!"

After humming, he gave Gao Ming a provocative look. Faced with Meng Xin's provocation, Gao Ming immediately became angry.

"Hey, you damn girl, I think you have not been beaten for three days, and you are uncomfortable if you have not been beaten for five days. If I don't give you some color today, you don't even know how many eyes Ma Wang has. !"

As he said that, Gao Ming immediately waved his hand towards Hegan Chengji and the others.

"You all get me out!"

"Yes!"

After everyone went out, Gao Ming took another look at Huzi who was standing still, and then winked at him.

"You go out too, do you think I can't handle a little girl?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Huzi took another look at Meng Xin who was tied up, and then nodded and left.

After Hu Zi went out, Gao Ming walked towards Meng Xin with a grin on his face.

"Hey hey hey...You little girl, you must force me to use more tricks, right? Okay, then today I will show you my unique skill - spanking!"

While Gao Ming was talking, he held Meng Xin down, and then reached out to take off her pants. Seeing this scene, Meng Xin immediately screamed.

"Ah... what are you going to do? Don't be like this, you are shameless, woo woo woo..."

When the people standing outside the tent heard the voice inside, they immediately showed weird faces.

At this moment, Gao Ming's voice came out.

"Are you screaming? You scream louder! Let me tell you, no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken, and the more you scream, the more excited I get, wow ha ha ha ha..."

After hearing Gao Ming's voice, the faces of everyone standing at the door became even more exciting, and even Meng Chao, who was tied up, had a complicated expression.

At this time, a hundred cavalry guard standing beside Hegan Chengji suddenly spoke.

"My lord, His Royal Highness said just now that he would strike thirty rods, do you still want to fight?"

Hearing his words, Hegan Chengji immediately slapped him.

"Fuck you! You don't even wink at all, why don't you untie Master Meng?"

"what?"

Seeing the dazed Baiqiwei, Hegan Chengji immediately became impatient, and pushed him away as soon as he stretched out his hand, then stepped forward to help Meng Chao untie him, and then smiled and cupped his hands towards Meng Chao.

"Master Meng, when I got down from office, I followed orders. If there is any offence, please forgive me, Lord Meng!"

Meng Chao is also an old man in the officialdom, of course he knows why Hegan Chengji's attitude has changed so much, and he bowed back immediately.

"Master Hegan's duty is, of course Meng won't blame you, and Meng would also like to thank you for your kindness on the way, thank you very much!"

Seeing Meng Chao's knowledge of current affairs, Hegan Chengji immediately laughed.

"Haha, Mr. Meng, don't say that. You are both generals of the Tang Dynasty. It is only natural to provide a little convenience, and the younger brother will need your elder brother to take care of him in the future!"

In a blink of an eye, Hegan Chengji's self-proclaimed name changed from "lower official" to "little brother". This change caught Meng Chao off guard. For some reason, he suddenly expected Gao Ming to have something to do with his daughter in the tent. .

But Gao Ming didn't know what happened outside the tent, and he was trying to "confront" Meng Xin at this time.

Although Meng Xin's hands were tied, he was a martial arts practitioner after all. Gao Ming tried hard for a long time but failed. Instead, he was accidentally knocked to the ground by Meng Xin.

Looking at Gao Ming who was hit by him, a sneer flashed across Meng Xin's face.

"Hmph, even if my girl's hands are tied, you can't do anything to me. You still want to hit me, dreaming!"

Hearing Meng Xin's words, Gao Ming became angry immediately.

"Hmph, I just let you do it, don't say your hands were tied, even if they weren't tied, Xiaoye, I can knock you down in minutes."

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Meng Xin smiled.

"Then you have the ability to untie my rope!"

"You think I dare not?"

"You just don't dare!"

"I dare not? Oh, I have a bad temper, don't move, I will untie it for you!"

Gao Ming felt that with his physique that insisted on doing radio gymnastics every day, it shouldn't be a big problem to subdue Meng Xin, but what made him think was that he had just untied the rope from Meng Xin's body, and Meng Xin subdued him immediately.

Soon, everyone outside the tent heard Gao Ming's screams coming from inside.

"Ah... what do you want to do? Don't be like this, you show your face, stinky bully, woo woo woo..."

As soon as Gao Ming finished speaking, Meng Xin's voice came out.

"Are you screaming? You should scream louder! Let me tell you, no one will come to save you even if your throat is broken, and the more you call this girl, the more excited you are, wow ha ha ha ha..."

Everyone: "..."
