Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 181: The Shocking Drum (7)
But before he took two steps, Shangguan Yeli grabbed him by the collar, and before he could resist, he was thrown out by Shangguan Yeli. He reacted quickly, made a beautiful leap, and fell back into the hall steadily. inside.

"Do you know what kind of military punishment you should receive for beating the war drum?" Wanqing was about to sneak in when she heard Fu Wang's deep and mellow voice like a cello resounding in the hall.

Wanqing's face turned pale when she heard that, she lowered her head honestly, and quietly rubbed behind Shangguan Yeli's back, but her voice was clearer: "Drums, they are war drums placed on the battlefield, and they are naturally an instrument for entertaining everyone when placed in the flower hall. , Could it be that the prince plans to use this flower hall as a battlefield?"

Fu Wang was stunned by her words, his tiger's eyes brightened, and his face was cloudy and uncertain: "This drum followed the king's army to fight in the north and south. It is a testimony of the victory and meritorious deeds of the king's army. It is not the soul of the army. It’s an exaggeration, you dare to treat it as a plaything, this is disrespect to the million-strong army of the Great Zhou!”

Hey, what a big hat, Wanqing retracted her head behind Shangguan Yeli's back, and grabbed his clothes, it's good to have someone to rely on, and hide if she can't win.

Shangguan Yeli really had a stinky face, and turned back to hold Wan Qing in his arms: "A drum is just a drum, how can there be so many famous tricks, my wife is only fourteen or fifteen years old, and she just loves to play, the prince should be careful when he speaks, Don't frighten her."

"Will she be frightened like this? Ah Li, I don't think your lady is afraid to do anything." The Shou Wang on the side smiled evilly, and said in a toneless way.

"Indeed, this king also thinks this woman is very courageous." Fu Wang said coldly.

"Isn't it just knocking on your broken drum? My lord, what exactly do you want?" Shangguan Yeli was very impatient, his face smelled so bad that he could freeze to death, and his deep eyes were full of storms, which might break out at any time.

A general behind Fu Wang was furious when he heard this, and shouted: "Bold, don't be rude to the prince." As he spoke, he pulled out the waist knife in his hand.

Shangguan Yeli's eyes narrowed, and he was about to make a move when he raised his hand, but when he raised his hand, he stopped abruptly and shouted helplessly, "Lady, let go!"

Wanqing grabbed his sleeve tightly and shook her head, "I won't let him go, even if I die."

"My lady..." Shangguan Yeli called helplessly.

"My lord, calm down, my lord, calm down." Wanqing laughed like a dog, hooking Shangguan Yeli's arms with both hands, her whole body was almost hanging on him.

Shangguan Yeli glared at her and said, "Then you come back with me! Don't play around outside." Saying that, he was about to drag Wanqing away.

King Shou laughed loudly when he heard this: "I said A Li won't give face to anyone, right? Brother Fifth, your banquet hasn't started yet, and he's about to leave."

The general behind King Fu blocked Shangguan Yeli's way with a horizontal knife. When Wanqing saw it, she rushed in front of Shangguan Yeli with her small body. I've knocked on your drum today, what are you going to do?"

She put on a courageous and thug face, obviously wanting to slip away, but when she saw that Shangguan Yeli was in danger, she tried to protect her with her frail and slender body like a little hen guarding her chicks. Shangguan Yeli, Fu Wang's eyes became darker and darker, he said coldly: "Of course it is a military law."

Wanqing's face turned serious, and she said coldly: "I'm just a woman, the prince doesn't think it's ridiculous to use military law on me?"

"It's not ridiculous at all. The women in this palace will be punished according to military law when they commit crimes."

For a moment, everyone in the room looked at Wanqing, Princess Ninghua gloated even more in his eyes, and someone whispered: "That's right, you should be punished if you dare to act presumptuously in Prince Fu's Mansion."

Shangguan Yeli gave the crowd a cold look. Many people immediately lowered their heads and kept silent. Ning Hua was also happy not to confront him face to face, but just watched the play from the sidelines. Normally, when encountering such a thing, she As Mrs. Hou and Wanqing's mother-in-law, she should come out and say a few words no matter what, but she doesn't even bother to pretend now. Her attitude just confirmed the previous rumors that she and Wanqing were at odds. Looking at Wanqing's eyes, it became more and more different.

Wanqing frowned slightly, and said to King Fu: "If the lord wants to embarrass me as a woman, there is nothing I can do. Tell me, how should I deal with it according to the military law? You won't kill me just because of a moment of fun, right? I don't believe that the prince is such a cruel person. Otherwise, you would not have such a high prestige in the army. The coolness will only shock people for a while, but you will not be able to control people's hearts. Only by convincing people with virtue can you win the hearts of the people. Do you think I'm right?"

A smile finally appeared on Fu Wang's cold face, although it was only for a moment.

"You are wrong. This king has always been strict in military law. He will never be merciful to women. However, in order to convince you, there is a rule in this king's army. Those who make minor mistakes can make meritorious deeds. Therefore, this king also gives This is your chance, if you can do something that this king and all the soldiers will agree to make up for the mistake just now, this king can still exempt you from punishment."

Wanqing was stunned when she heard that, making meritorious service to atone for her crime? MD, she is not a strong woman, she has never practiced kung fu, she doesn't know military skills, and she doesn't know how to... Do you want Tianlei to sing again?God, please forgive her, she doesn't know much about poetry and songs.

Wan Qing tangled her clothes, frowned at Lao Gao, and Murong Lingyun was annoyed when she heard it: "King Fu, why make things difficult for her, she is a boudoir woman, how can she know so many things, there is no woman who has made meritorious service in war in the Great Zhou Dynasty precedent."

But King Shou said: "Ah Yun, what are you worried about? It's not your wife, but her husband is the only one in people's eyes. Where did they take you into their eyes?"

Murong Lingyun's veins were throbbing when he heard that, and he glared at King Shou, but he couldn't say anything more. Although he was used to wantonness, he also knew that Wanqing still cared about her reputation, and he didn't want to make her feel worse in the future.

When Shu Xin saw King Shou coming, she had been standing aside in a gentle and dignified manner. Now, seeing Wanqing being cornered by King Fu, she came out and whispered, "Fifth Grandma Shangguan, if you want to If you don't come out, just kneel down and beg Fu Wang, Fu Wang is actually cold-hearted, if you don't keep it, he will let you go."
