When Yu Xiaoxiao said the name "Zhao Yingshan", most of the people present were confused. In ancient times, outsiders did not know the maiden's name, so everyone knew who Concubine Zhao was, but no one knew who Zhao Yingshan was.
The two people who were protecting Concubine Zhao attacked Yu Xiaoxiao without saying a word.
Yu Xiaoxiao picked up the two guards, one in each hand, and threw them away, still keeping her eyes on Concubine Zhao.
The guards who followed Yu Xiaoxiao didn't react until the two guards of Concubine Zhao were thrown into the yard by Yu Xiaoxiao. They drew their weapons and ran forward to capture the two people who were knocked unconscious.
"Who is that person?" Madam Lin pointed at Concubine Zhao who was standing face to face with Yu Xiaoxiao and asked everyone around her.
A woman whispered, "Is your surname Zhao?"
It doesn’t mean that all people with the surname Zhao are bad people, but many people with the surname Zhao who were targeted by Her Royal Highness the Princess were shocked. Could this Zhao Yingshan be related to Zhao Qiu Ming?
A person in charge of the post station hurriedly ordered someone, "Quick, close the gate." If this is a remnant of the Zhao family, he must not be allowed to escape!
The chief guard shook his head at the person in charge and said, "No need to close the door."
Why close the door when the princess is here? Didn't you see that the two guards of Concubine Zhao were thrown half to death by the princess?
Princess Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoxiao, her mind went blank. After Zhao Qiuming started the rebellion, she left the imperial palace, thinking that even if the Yu Dynasty ceased to exist, she was the daughter of the Zhao family, and her father and brothers would never treat her unfairly. Unexpectedly, the good situation was gone with Yu Xiaoxiao's return, and within a day, the Zhao family suffered a devastating disaster.
When the Zhao residence was under siege that day, Concubine Zhao took advantage of the chaos to escape with several maids and guards. The fighting in the East City was relatively small, so Concubine Zhao and her group originally wanted to escape from Fengjing through the East City Gate. However, the gates of the four cities in Fengjing were all closed, so Concubine Zhao and her group had to temporarily stay in the East Gate Inn, which was crowded with people and convenient for hiding. As Fengjing was hunting down the remnants of the Zhao family, it became extremely difficult for Concubine Zhao to get out of the East Gate Inn.
The Gu family arranged for Ruan Tian and her group to stay in the East Gate Inn. This move made Concubine Zhao extremely frightened, fearing that her whereabouts would be exposed. After a few days of trembling, Concubine Zhao saw that no one from the Gu family came to see Ruan Tian, so she decided to take the risk and find another hiding place. Who knew, Concubine Zhao thought desperately, why did she choose today when she couldn't leave?
Seeing Concubine Zhao staring at her without saying anything, Yu Xiaoxiao asked, "Are you running away again?"
Concubine Zhao was filled with grief and indignation. Could she escape? !
Yu Xiaoxiao waved behind her.
The captain of the guards rushed forward with a group of guards.
Yu Xiao: "Catch them and send them to the palace and hand them over to my father." Even if Concubine Zhao is worthless, she is still her father's concubine. Let her father decide how to deal with her.
The guards rushed forward to capture Concubine Zhao.
Concubine Zhao said to Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, I am just a woman. I have no choice."
Yu Xiao: "Yes, if you were more capable, would I still need to live?"
Concubine Zhao...
Mrs. Lin then stepped forward, glanced at Concubine Zhao, and said, "Princess, who is she?"
"The treacherous concubine Zhao," Yu Xiao said.
Mrs. Lin's eyes widened immediately. Concubine Zhao, my God, this is the Concubine Zhao who was once the most favored in the six palaces? Mrs. Lin looked at Concubine Zhao without blinking.
The guards stepped forward, handcuffed the arms of Concubine Zhao and several others, and arrested them.
Several maids following Concubine Zhao burst into tears.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at them, and then she saw Dadong.
Dadong looked very unwell. His face was yellow and he was very thin. He looked like he could be blown down by a gust of wind when he stood there.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Dadong's face, which was exactly the same as Erqiu's. She tilted her head and thought for a while, then said to the guard who was holding Dadong, "Young man, let go. You can't just take advantage of a beauty, right?"
This guard brother... who gave the order to arrest someone just now? Is this job still possible? !
Dadong was free, looked up at Yu Xiaoxiao, and quickly lowered her head again. Although she and Erqiu were twins and had the same face, their personalities were completely opposite. Dadong was an honest girl. When Erqiu was in Huguo Temple, her forehead was broken by the collapsed wall, while Dadong was intact. Zhao Qiuming still chose to send Erqiu, whose appearance was damaged, to the palace first. Prime Minister Zhao took into account that Dadong was too honest and soft-hearted. She could sleep with Emperor Xianzong, but it was completely a pipe dream to expect this girl to compete for favors and play palace fighting.
Yu Xiaoxiao circled around Dadong, stretched out her hand to pinch Dadong's thin shoulders, and said, "Dadong, does the Zhao family often not give you food?"
Dadong didn't dare to speak.
The chief guard asked Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, aren't you going to send her to the palace?"
When Dadong heard the captain of the guards say to enter the palace, his body trembled.
Yu Xiao: "No, she is not a member of the Zhao family."
Concubine Zhao sneered, "She is the second daughter of the Zhao family. You say she is not a member of the Zhao family?"
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at Concubine Zhao. How could she say that she was a treacherous concubine? Death was imminent, and this guy wanted to take someone else with him.
"Tell me who you are yourself," Princess Zhao said to Dadong again.
Yu Xiaoxiao pulled Dadong to stand behind her and said, "So what if she is the second daughter of your Zhao family? I'm protecting her, what can you do about it?"
Everyone present looked at Concubine Zhao together. Yes, what can you do?
Concubine Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoxiao, then at Dadong who was protected by Yu Xiaoxiao, and said with a resentful look, "She is the elder sister of Lady Qiu, Princess, are you going to protect her?"
When everyone heard the name of Lady Qiu, their expressions changed again. It seemed that this matter was becoming more and more complicated!
Yu Xiaoxiao raised her hand and slapped Concubine Zhao in the face, knocking her to the ground.
Concubine Zhao fell to the ground and fainted, her face looking swollen.
Everyone..., Her Royal Highness the Princess is really cruel!
"Send this guy to the palace," Yu Xiaoxiao said to the captain of the guards.
When several maids saw that Yu Xiaoxiao had saved Dadong and was caught by the guards, they were unable to kneel down, so they begged for mercy from Yu Xiaoxiao together.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at these maids, who were able to escape with Concubine Zhao. They must be Concubine Zhao's confidants. Yu Xiaoxiao suddenly had a question in her mind, and asked Dadong, "Why did Concubine Zhao take you with her?" It couldn't be that Concubine Zhao was afraid that she would run out of food while escaping, so she used Dadong as a reserve food, right?
Dadong shook her head. When the Zhao Mansion was besieged by soldiers, she was prepared to hang herself like the real Second Miss Zhao, but Concubine Zhao ordered people to tie her up with ropes and take her out of the Zhao Mansion. Dadong still hasn't figured out what Concubine Zhao wanted to do.
"You say," Yu Xiaoxiao pointed at a maid.
The maid said in a trembling voice: "Mother, the queen said that she might be a life-guard, a life-protecting talisman."
Amulet?
Yu Xiaoxiao turned her head and looked at Dadong again. This girl didn’t look like a martial arts master.
