Tao Congguang was already kneeling on the ground by several shadow guards. Tao Congguang hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, your elder sister is your majesty's concubine. I hope that your highness will consider my sister's face."
, please be merciful!"
Xiao Ruxue snorted softly and said: "I don't know you, if you dare to say another word, I will break your legs!"
Of course, breaking a dog's legs is a basic operation. They were all doing this at the beginning.
But today in front of Ning'er and Xiao Shuang'er, it's natural not to be so violent.
Her image has just changed in the hearts of these two little guys, and they must not let it fall again.
Tao Congguang wanted to say more, but Wei Xiong directly made a gesture and asked the shadow guard to take him down.
What are you still doing here?
Are you causing trouble to Her Highness the Princess?
At the moment, Xiao Ruxue didn't want to argue with these forbidden troops, so she just let them lead her to the palace.
Damn Xiao Ye!
What kind of disaster did she, Princess Yongle, bring down the capital with one fist after another?
Don’t think that you can’t take care of someone if you marry him!
Many people watched Xiao Ruxue leave before wiping the sweat on their foreheads. Is this the Princess Yongle who was rumored in the old capital?
It looks as majestic as before!
Unexpectedly, His Highness the King of Han has not lost his temper for so many years.
It looks like they are all mothers now, right?
But this is good, the bad guys are finally punished.
With Her Royal Highness the Princess taking action this time, which dandy would dare to be so presumptuous?
To be honest, His Majesty has not ignored the affairs of the capital in recent years.
The dandies, big and small, still dare not say anything. Even if they are related to His Majesty, Tao Congguang still knows how to give money...
If we talk about it, Xinjing's security level has dropped from 100% to over 80%, which is still above the excellent level.
Of course, this is undoubtedly much worse than the scene in the old capital.
Now that Her Royal Highness the Princess is here as a deterrent, I think we can get another wave of points.
What happened on the main street of the capital quickly spread to the Tao Mansion.
At this time, the head of the Tao family was also a minister of the Ministry of Rites.
This position has been the most frequently changed in recent years.
The previous Minister of Rites was threatened by the wise king because he was greedy for black money and silver. He handed over his family property and bought his life. After handing over the property, he could not afford to hire guards. Without guards, Gao Lao met a group of criminals on his way home.
A very professional robber, gone...
Although the previous Minister of Rites worked conscientiously, he suffered from tuberculosis and hiccupped.
So from then on, there was the curse of the Minister of Rites!
If you don't have a strong character in this position, don't sit there.
All the major aristocratic families in the capital no longer wanted it, so it was the turn of the Tao family, which was not considered a wealthy family.
The head of the Tao family is also very panicked, wow! Why did this position fall on me!
Ask the fortune teller quickly.
The fortune teller made some calculations and felt that the Tao family would probably have the backlash from the official position of Minister of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs based on the Tao family alone, so it would be a matter of luck.
It so happened that I had a daughter who was seventeen years old, unmarried and waiting in the boudoir. Her appearance was very charming, and it happened to be the time for His Majesty's talent show.
Borrowing someone else's luck is worse than borrowing the royal family's, so with the mentality of giving it a try, I let my daughter participate in the draft.
I didn’t expect that my daughter was so determined that she was chosen!
The Tao family's position as Minister of Rites is finally secure.
Later, the Tao family was like a nouveau riche who had never seen the world. Suddenly, it was squeezed from an unpopular family to the forefront of the capital. It was easy to expand when it suddenly gained power.
So now something happened.
The Minister of Rites was walking around the house at this time. He loved his little son very much and was a bit arrogant on weekdays. How could something like this happen?
So the Minister of Rites didn't care about anything and quickly ordered someone to send a message to the daughter in the palace to see if he could ask Concubine Shu to intercede in front of His Majesty and take advantage of her brother.
If this were to be tried in accordance with the law and a woman was raped, the crime would be huge!
How could my son's body and bones stand up to the yamen's board?
…
After Concubine Tao Shu got the news, she kept pacing in the palace.
Daddy also thinks highly of her. Although she is called Concubine Shu, she seems to be one of the four concubines, with unlimited glory.
But only the people inside know that in the eyes of His Majesty, the only family members are the Queen's family.
Speaking of which, the biggest role of the four concubines was to increase the number of crown princes.
The three most unfilial things are not having descendants, especially the emperor. If he does not have three or five sons under his command, he will be embarrassed to face his ancestors in the future.
She doesn't have much face with His Majesty either.
Begging for mercy? It's definitely useless to go alone. It's better to ask the Queen first.
At this time, the queen was walking in the back garden. She originally accompanied Xin'er and Xi'er for a walk, but who knew that these two little girls left her and ran away after learning that Ning'er was back...
These two little heartless little ones, my mother's love for them is in vain.
When Zheng Waner saw Concubine Tao Shu, she also smiled and said, "How come my sister has time to come to the back garden to enjoy today?"
It's no wonder Zheng Waner said so, two or three of the four concubines often couldn't get out of bed all day long.
This is all normal. It was the same when I first got married, and I'll get used to it after a few years.
At this time, Concubine Tao Shu quickly bowed to the Queen: "Please also ask the Queen to save my concubine's younger brother..."
Zheng Waner said: "Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly."
Tao Shufei told Zheng Waner exactly what happened.
After hearing Concubine Tao Shu's words, Zheng Waner shook her head slightly and said: "What Your Majesty hates the most is the children of aristocratic families who bully others. In the past, many children of aristocratic families were kept obedient by Your Majesty. Although Your Majesty has become more and more calm after many years on the throne, this matter is probably very serious."
It is difficult to get Dali Temple to release him through intercession."
Tao Shufei immediately panicked and said, "What can we do in this case? If we are really tried for the crime of robbing a civilian girl, it will be dozens of crimes and there will be several years of imprisonment. Although I have practiced martial arts, how can I withstand it?"
Why go to such trouble?"
"I beg the Queen to think of a way for my concubine. I will be strict with my younger brother from now on. He will never make such a mistake again!"
Zheng Waner sighed and said: "It is impossible for Your Majesty to let your brother go. If I can be given a lighter sentence, I might be able to suffer less in prison. I will go with you to ask, but I'm afraid there is not much hope.
"
Concubine Tao Shu said quickly: "Thank you, Queen, thank you Queen!"
Even a small hope is still a hope!
…
After the agreement was made, Zheng Waner and Concubine Tao Shu came to the outside of Tai Chi Palace.
Zhou Guan, the leader of the eunuchs who was standing outside the gate of Taiji Palace, bowed quickly when he saw the visitor and said, "I have seen the Queen and the Concubine Shu."
Zheng Waner said, "Tong Bing, I have something to do to meet with Your Majesty."
"This..." Zhou Guan lowered his head and said, "Madam, I'm afraid it's not very convenient now."
Zheng Waner asked doubtfully, "Why is it inconvenient? Is His Majesty busy?"
Zhou Guan replied: "Go back to the Queen, Your Majesty is coaxing Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess inside now..."
Tao Shufei was suddenly surprised: "What...what?"
Zhou Guan lowered his head silently. If he said that His Majesty was being scolded by the eldest princess, he would not know what Concubine Tao Shu would look like...
