Chapter 52: The prince pulls a thousand catties! 2
The prince lifts a thousand catties with four taels! (2)
When Chu Tianjiao heard that Long Xiang had received a hundred military sticks, his heart tightened slightly. Hearing the second half of the sentence, he couldn't help but become interested in seeing how He Lanji responded.
From the corner of his eye, He Lanji happened to catch the smile flashing across her lips. He coughed lightly and revealed the countermeasures he had thought of on the road.
"Go to Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion in person and say that someone pretended to be the prime minister's son and teased my princess on the street. The princess had beheaded the man in a rage. I know that such a dandy with no family education can never do it.
She is the son of Prime Minister Zhang, so naturally she will not think that the Prime Minister is deliberately trying to embarrass me!" He Lanji straightened up from his bed, "Besides, if I go to Qitian Mansion again, I will say that the princess is young and does not understand the rules.
It’s time for me to overstep my authority and let Lord Fu Yin forgive me. Long Xiang, the other murderer, has already been punished with a hundred sticks and has been reduced to an ordinary soldier. I also need to comfort the frightened princess, and I will personally come to the palace to acquit myself one day!"
After hearing this, the housekeeper secretly sighed that his master had to adapt to the situation and did not dare to neglect him, so he left in response.
Chu Tianjiao was sitting on the couch, secretly sighing in his heart that He Lanji was so good at solving the difficult problem she raised so easily.
I thought that even though the prime minister had lost his son, he did not publicly declare that he was deliberately trying to embarrass King Chiyan. After all, although he was the prime minister, his identity was under the prince. To openly embarrass the prince was to despise the royal family.
He Lanji put the charge of manslaughter on her again, thinking that when she first arrived, she recognized the prime minister's son and was molested in the street. As a princess, it didn't matter that she casually killed a gangster who molested her. Although it was a bit against the rules,
Naturally, a small palace official would not dare to actually come to the palace to ask for punishment.
In the end, this matter was just a pain for Long Xiang, who had to receive a hundred military sticks and be reduced to an ordinary soldier.
Listening to the butler's footsteps walking away, He Lanji slowly turned to look at Chu Tianjiao who was sitting in the dining room, "If nothing happens, the princess will continue to rest. There are many people in the capital. The princess has stayed in the palace obediently in the past few years and must not go out at will.
, now Long Xiang is seriously injured in bed, and I still need to prepare the things needed for the wedding. If you encounter such scoundrels again, I'm afraid no one can protect you!"
His tone was gentle, as if he was worried that she would be in danger if she went out, but Chu Tianjiao could understand between the lines that he had given her a grounding order.
