At this time, Zhang Mansion.
Before Minister Zhang could properly teach his son a lesson, he heard hurried footsteps outside and the housekeeper's panicked shouting.
"Master, Master, Master...something happened! Something terrible happened!"
"Click!" Minister Zhang couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat and he looked in the direction where the sound came from in panic.
"What happened?"
The old butler almost crawled over and held out his hand, "Master, something big has happened. The Imperial Guards have surrounded the entire Minister's Mansion!"
"What!"
"Imperial Guards? How is that possible?"
Minister Zhang and Zhang Liang's eyes widened in shock.
The Imperial Guards are not an ordinary army. They are an army directly under the command of Emperor Donglin. Only Emperor Donglin can command the army. So this time the Imperial Guards surrounded his Zhang family at the order of the emperor.
...
...
Thinking of the status of the Imperial Guards, Zhang Liang swallowed his saliva and tried to make excuses for himself, "My... my affairs with the little princess shouldn't alarm the Imperial Guards, right?"
Minister Zhang glared at his son fiercely, "You'll know when you get out!"
It would be great if this were true!
If it was something else...Minister Zhang could no longer think further.
Thinking of this, Minister Zhang felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and he walked outside in panic.
"Quick! Come with me to greet them!"
"yes!"
The housekeeper hurriedly followed Minister Zhang and went out together.
He also met several guards on the way, but these guards did not attack him. Their target was Zhang Liang.
Minister Zhang looked at these people and found that they were actually the Imperial Guards.
I just don’t know who is leading the team?
Minister Zhang ran out quickly, but after only a few steps, he saw Xiao Ruoyi and Commander Jin coming around the corner.
Minister Zhang, who had seen Xiao Ruoyi at the morning court, stumbled and fell to the ground when he saw her.
Looking at Xiao Ruoyi, Minister Zhang's tongue was tied, "Princess...Princess...!"
Sure enough, his ominous premonition was true!
Just as his son offended Xiao Ruoyi, Xiao Ruoyi came to take revenge, and she brought the royal guards with her, which shows how much Emperor Donglin loves her.
Xiao Ruoyi tilted her head and looked at Minister Zhang who was lying at her feet. She squatted down and blinked her big, dark and lively eyes curiously.
"Eh? Uncle, why are you giving this princess such a big gift? Yiyi is still young, I don't want her life span to be shortened!"
Although Xiao Ruoyi had attended the morning court before, there were so many people there and Minister Zhang was just a minor official, so he was not worthy of Xiao Ruoyi's attention.
Of course, as soon as Xiao Ruoyi saw Minister Zhang's face, she knew that he was Zhang Liang's father, but she pretended not to know him.
If Zhang Liang hadn't provoked him first, he wouldn't have remembered that his father lived in a golden house and wouldn't have remembered this place.
Minister Zhang: "..." Do you think I want to? It was because of the fall!
However, after kneeling, Minister Zhang still adjusted his posture and bowed with both hands, "Your humble servant greets the princess!"
Xiao Ruoyi blinked in surprise, "Hey, are you Zhang Liang's father?"
"Yes... yes!" Minister Zhang quickly knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake, "Little Princess, I am a rebellious son who is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and has offended you. Please forgive me!"
The Second Prince, who had climbed up to the roof to eavesdrop, heard Minister Zhang's words and snorted in his heart, "You are so young and you know how to bully others by taking advantage of your power!"
Subconsciously, the Second Prince thought that Xiao Ruoyi was someone who took advantage of the fact that she was a princess and the emperor's favorite daughter to bully the ministers' son.
Looking at the little furry head below, Xiao Ruoyi was full of disdain and ridicule.
Xiao Ruoyi rested her arms on her knees, her chubby hands touching her white and tender cheeks. She pouted her cute little pink mouth and complained aggrievedly, "But your son is so bad. He not only scolded Yiyi, but also scolded his mother!"
Zhang Liang, who was called out, leaned against the wall and hid in the corner, trembling. If he had not been leaning against the wall with his hands on the pillar, he would have collapsed to the ground.
"Enough of the fun! Time to settle the score!"
He knew that Xiao Ruoyi came to seek revenge!
Damn you little bitch, didn't he just say a few unpleasant words? Why did you have to make such a fuss and come to settle the score with him?
Moreover, he brought the Royal Guards with him!
At this moment, Zhang Liang still thought that Xiao Ruoyi brought the Royal Guards here because of him.
Of course, even Xiao Ruoyi and Commander Jin thought so. Only Emperor Donglin knew that he came for the golden house of Minister Zhang.
Even if Minister Zhang's house was small, as long as it could accommodate one person, there must be a lot of gold in it, so it was most appropriate to send the Imperial Guards there. Moreover, Commander Jin was a trusted subordinate recognized by Xiao Ruoyi.
Minister Zhang, who was still unaware of the impending disaster, knelt down and bowed his head, putting all the blame on Zhang Liang. He cursed the brat in his heart, saying that he was really looking for trouble. Why did he have to mess with the little girl who was the most troublesome person to deal with!
"Little princess, this is all my fault. I didn't discipline my son well! I will call the rebellious son out right now and let you deal with him as you wish!"
Zhang Liang, who was eavesdropping, shuddered and immediately turned around and wanted to escape.
However, Zhang Liang was discovered by Xiao Ruoyi as soon as he moved. She laughed twice and said, "The bad guy is here! Run away! Run away! But you can't escape from here today! The whole mansion is surrounded by the imperial guards!"
Commander Jin, "..." Why do I always feel that Xiao Ruoyi is a bit like the bully who raped the woman?
Commander Jin waved his hand, and two guards immediately stepped out, grabbed Zhang Liang and pressed him in front of Xiao Ruoyi.
Zhang Liang was pinned down by the imperial guards, with his hands shackled behind his back. He knelt on the ground with his head lowered, crying, "Princess, please forgive me. I won't dare to do that again! Please be magnanimous and let me go!"
Xiao Ruoyi curled her lips and secretly complained in her heart, [Do you really think I came here for you? You are wrong, I came here for your father! ]
The voice in his mind appeared too suddenly, and the second prince was not paying attention and stepped on the tiles on the roof and broke them.
This movement immediately attracted the attention of Commander Jin. He looked up at the roof where the Second Prince was, and the Second Prince subconsciously lowered his head.
Commander Jin withdrew his gaze without any excessive reaction. In fact, before leaving the palace, Commander Jin discovered that someone was following them.
If he can't discover this, then he has no right to be the commander of the Royal Guard.
But after finding out that it was the Second Prince who was following him, he didn't do anything about it. As a prince, he had no right to do anything about it.
Xiao Ruoyi's cute little ears also moved. She raised her head to look at the roof and looked in the direction where the sound came from. It was exactly where the second prince had just appeared.
