Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 221 The Toad and the Swan
Soon, the tallest bell tower in the imperial city was knocked.All the civil and military men in the city, whether they were eating, taking a nap, or teasing with their concubines in their arms, all jumped up in shock, hurriedly changed their official uniforms and rushed to the palace.

Ding Wei drove all the way into the city, and when she wanted to turn back to Marquis Wu's Mansion, Lin Liu, who didn't want to drive, followed the brigade all the way to the gate of the palace.Thinking of the last time civil and military officials blocked the door, Ding Wei couldn't help knocking on the wall and asked, "Guard Lin, why don't you go back to Marquis Wu's Mansion?"

Lin Liu bowed on the shaft of the chariot and responded, "Girl, the general ordered the girl and the young master to enter the palace."

Ding Wei frowned, but said nothing.

The carriage was guarded in the middle by the army, and soon drove directly into Zhengyangmen.In the two carriages behind, Xiaoqing, Yunya, and Mrs. Cheng and her son entered the palace for the first time. They couldn't help but lift the curtains to look outside, but before they had time to take a closer look, they quickly lowered the curtains again. Lost the face of his master.

When they stopped in front of Qiankun Palace, all the maids and eunuchs were startled. They didn't understand why the general returned to the palace early, and more importantly, he brought three carriages back, and even drove all the way to the front of Qiankun Palace. .You must know that no one in all dynasties has enjoyed this kind of grace.

Qiankun Hall, the place where civil and military officials go to court to discuss matters every day.Even the elders of the pavilion have to walk in, and they have never even sat on the bus once. Now this rule has been broken by three carriages.

Therefore, everyone couldn't help but wonder who was sitting in this carriage.

Gong Zhiming got off the black horse, walked straight to the door of the carriage, helped Ding Wei down with his own hands, and asked, "Are you tired?"

Ding Wei glanced at the "obedient" palace people around her, and said in a low voice, "I'm not tired, but I'm a little hungry."

Gong Zhiming smiled slightly, and replied, "I still have some snacks at home. You can fill your belly in a while. I'll finish it as soon as possible, and we'll go home."

"it is good."

Gong Zhiming turned around and embraced the curious-eyed An Geer, and the family of three led the maids, big and small, up the stairs and into the hall.

The popsicles that left the palace people seemed to have fallen into a hot water pot, and suddenly thawed.All those with mouths gathered together excitedly, their expressions were still cervical, their postures were still humble, but their mouths were busy all the time.

"Hey, did you see that? Did the woman and the child be raised by the general in Wuhou Mansion..."

"I saw it, I saw it! It must be, you haven't seen the general with a cold face, and now he is smiling!"

"From what I can see, this woman's appearance can only be considered delicate, and she is far worse than Princess Qingcheng!"

"Carrots and cabbages each have their own love, let's not talk about it, be careful not to be overheard. Maybe we can count on this master's wink to survive in the future!"

When a group of civil and military courtiers rushed to Qiankun Hall in a hurry, they felt something was wrong from a distance, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.After finally climbing the steps and entering the Qiankun Hall, he realized that the familiar hall had changed.

A screen was placed not far from the high dragon chair. There seemed to be a lot of people standing behind the screen, but they were very well behaved and made no sound, making it impossible for everyone to guess.

However, there were also very few well-informed aristocratic families who got the news of Nanyuan's attack and killing from nowhere, so they tried their best to suppress the excitement in their hearts, and tried hard to figure out how to get more benefits from this chaos.

Of course, most civil and military people still don't understand what's going on, and they wink at each other and ask a few questions in a low voice, all of which are full of doubts.

Fortunately, it didn't confuse them for a long time. All the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty arrived, and the eunuch in charge of the ceremony announced loudly, because the enthronement ceremony had not yet been held, and it was difficult for everyone to shout long live. They all bowed down and saluted, saying that the general is mighty !

Gong Zhiming still covered himself in armor, waved his hands coldly to signal everyone to get up, and without any fuss at the end, he ordered Yu Chihui to take the Chu family father and son to the main hall.

Some officials who had good relations with the Chu family were so startled that they almost jumped up. They didn't understand that the father and son of the Chu family, who were still alive with Long Zhigong, had committed a crime and were bound to the palace like this.

Could it be that the general couldn't wait to kill the heroes before he was enthroned?Then these people, speaking of them, are still ministers of the old dynasty. Not only did they fail to follow the dragon's merits, but they even made a foolish thing blocking the palace gate before, wouldn't it be even more catastrophic.

For a moment, everyone began to feel insecure, unconsciously softening their legs and bending their backs, wishing to hide themselves tightly behind everyone, for fear of being discovered by the general, who would be the first to try the knife...

Gong Zhiming saw everyone's expressions, but he smiled mockingly, and ordered, "Princess Qingcheng, please come to the palace!"

Yuchi replied with regret, "Go back to General, Uncle Yun has gone in person!"

Everyone didn't understand why they invited Princess Qingcheng, but the keen sense of smell they had cultivated in the court all year round made them feel at ease suddenly.

Chu Fei, who was originally kneeling in the center of the hall, heard that Gong Zhiming wanted someone to invite Princess Qingcheng to confront him, and suddenly became anxious, and said loudly, "General, the princess is quiet by nature and has a noble status. It is inappropriate to invite the princess here without proof. I am responsible for all the crimes, and I ask the general not to implicate the innocent princess."

The father and son of the Chu family were already numb to the appearance of his lover, and they didn't even have the strength to sigh. They only hoped that Prime Minister Fang would be a sensible and righteous man, and not withdraw in court.

As long as Chu Qixi marries into Fang's family, the general will absolutely pardon Chu Qixi because of Prime Minister Fang's half-teacher's kindness and the love he grew up with Fang Xin.Now the Chu family has only one hope, and each one survives.

Everyone was completely confused by Chu Fei's impassioned appearance.Could it be that the Chu family is unlucky and has anything to do with Princess Qingcheng?Could it be that Chu Fei fell in love with the princess, and the general became angry from embarrassment?

No, didn't the general disdain the princess?What went wrong?

Several elders looked at each other, and then looked at Prime Minister Fang, who was silent and seemed to be asleep with his eyelids downcast. They all cursed the old fox secretly. Maybe others didn't know it, but Prime Minister Fang definitely knew it. After all, the Fang family is the in-laws of the Chu family.Although the only son of the Fang family did not serve as an official, everyone knew that the general had great trust in him, so he followed him on this hunting trip.

No matter what happened in the hunting ground, it must not be hidden from Prime Minister Fang.But if the old fox didn't say anything, they might as well ask the general directly.

So Mr. Dong Ge went out first, and after saluting, he asked, "The old minister learned that the general was hunting in the morning, and he didn't want to return in half a day, but what trouble did the general encounter?"

Gong Zhiming nodded, and replied directly, "Chu Fei took advantage of me to go hunting, and secretly replaced the guards, intending to attack and kill the family members of Marquis Wu's mansion. Fortunately, Yuchi got the news in advance and made arrangements, otherwise now …snort!"

He didn't finish his sentence, but how can there be a fool in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.Needless to say, the family members of Wuhou Mansion, everyone knows who it is?Even if you can't guess, you've heard the news that the general took his pampered wife and children to hunt.

So everyone gasped in shock, and then looked at the Chu family in the middle of the hall, their eyes were almost as if they were looking at a dead person.

It's not that no one has ever seen a lover, but it's the first time they've heard that they have privately used weapons to attack and kill the wife and children of the future new emperor for the sake of a woman.I really don't know whether to praise Chufei for being a coward, or call him stupid!

Not to mention how surprised the officials in the hall were, but Yun Bo led the guards all the way to Liuxian Garden, and all the maids and eunuchs were so frightened that they immediately retreated to the corner and knelt down.

The old mother in the bedroom heard the movement and came out to welcome her. Seeing this, her face immediately changed. New and old hatred were added together, making her angrily scolded, "What are you going to do? Trespassing on Liuxianyuan, what a big dog! guts!"

Uncle Yun glanced at her appearance of being tough on the outside and soft on the inside, sighed in his heart, and said, "Old girl, don't talk too much. The general invites the princess to go to court, you should wait on the princess to change clothes quickly."

The old mother wanted to say something, but the door of the main hall behind her creaked open.

Shi Shiran, Princess Qingcheng, dressed in a luxurious court dress and wearing a phoenix crown, came out.She raised her chin, straightened her back, glanced at everyone arrogantly, and finally said lightly, "Is it because the general sent so many guards here because he is afraid that I will not answer the call?"

She smiled coldly, waved her hands and said, "Lead the way ahead!"

The old nanny grabbed the princess by the sleeve anxiously, wanting to persuade her, but she didn't know what to say at the moment.

Money can turn ghosts around, even though Liuxianyuan is now surrounded by everyone, but the money spread all over the sky still bought a few eyeliners.As soon as the bell rang in the previous court, she received the news that Ding Wei's mother and son had entered the palace, and the Chu family's father and son had been convicted.Needless to say, Chu Fei must have failed, and the black-robed army lost again.

If the princess goes away, even if she is not punished, nothing good will happen, she can't rest assured no matter what!
But now it is no longer Xihao from the Sima family, the princess has to rely on the help of foreign ministers to manage a cook, let alone defy the emperor's order?
"Don't worry, mother, I will be fine."

Princess Qingcheng patted the back of the old mother's hand as comfort, and finally smiled at Uncle Yun, "Let's go, Uncle Yun, don't keep the general waiting."

After shedding the cold and exiled fairy appearance of the past, Princess Qingcheng's dress is so graceful and luxurious, which is really touching.A few guards almost tripped over their feet when they were shaken by her smile, and when they stood still, they quickly cheered up and led the way.They didn't even know that Princess Qingcheng was behind them, and the disgust in her eyes was as thick as a mist.

There are those toads in this world who think that they will be favored by swans by jumping up and down to make a fool of themselves.Don't you know that there is no other use except disgusting people.Chu Fei is one, and will not be the last...

"Princess Qingcheng is here!" The eunuch at the gate of Qiankun shouted loudly, causing all the civil and military officials to come over.

The stunning woman who overwhelmed the country and the city stepped into the door with a graceful posture. The noon sun shone behind her, as if covering her whole body with a layer of golden light, making her more and more like a god, unattainable.

The ministers were dumbfounded for a while, and felt a pity for some reason in their hearts again. Why can't such a woman be loved by the general?
Gong Zhiming also narrowed his eyes slightly, but no one could see what was hidden in his eyes.
