Chapter 182 Qi Heng comes to the rescue
Minglan knew clearly that these people were rogues. They were not students but chose to go to Gongyuan and speak nonsense in front of the Sheng family. Their intention was self-evident - to provoke and humiliate. Moreover, such behavior was obviously instructed by someone. Minglan was sure that the person who instructed her would watch her in the crowd to see how she would respond, or simply to see her make a fool of herself. After searching for a while, she saw Huang Fuxiang.
Minglan had already made up her mind and sneered. They really thought she was a soft persimmon.
Minglan turned around and was about to lead the servants and guards to walk towards those people, but someone got there before her.
A team of well-trained guards surrounded the men like an iron wall, and the air was filled with murderous aura. Then, a young man in a gorgeous robe stepped out from behind the guards. He was tall and straight, with a stern face, and shouted loudly, "Take these people down immediately!"
The guards moved at the sound, and their movements were coordinated and coordinated, and they subdued these ruffians in an instant. Since the personal guards of Prince Yong broke into the Qi family, the guards of the Qi family have been strengthening their training, and now they have become an elite guard team. At first, these scoundrels were afraid of the guards' stern aura, but after being controlled, they seemed to react and pretended to be arrogant again, deliberately shouting, "Who are you? What right do you have to arrest us? We have never violated the law."
One of them struggled the most fiercely, and he was obviously the leader of these people. His head was pressed down, but he was still struggling and turbulent, still roaring unwillingly, "In broad daylight, is there no law? Arresting people for no reason, are they the subordinates of the princess who protects the country and want to use lynching? Can the princess be so reckless? I'm afraid we have hit their sore spot, and they want to kill people in public to silence them." The leader spoke slanderously and without restraint.
Qi Heng narrowed his cold eyes and just signaled with a look. The guards quickly took off the shoes and socks of those people and stuffed the socks into their mouths, instantly stopping the shrill noise. Qi
Heng then slowly spoke in a steady and powerful voice, "Don't worry, I act openly and honestly, and will never execute people privately. I am not the princess's subordinate, but I don't like your behavior, and you don't have to make random accusations. This time I just kidnapped you and sent you to the government office, but you dared to slander the princess with empty words and show great disrespect to the princess. Such behavior is not only a great contempt for the royal family, but also a great disrespect for the royal family. "You are guilty of foul language, slandering the princess, adding to your crime. As for what sentence you will receive, the prefect will make the fair judgment." After
he finished speaking, he turned to the guards and gave a short and powerful order: "Take them away!"
After he finished speaking, he turned to the guards and gave a short and powerful order: "Take them away!" Then he turned around and faced the people outside the tribute courtyard, "My fellow officials, these people are lawless criminals, The princess is the backbone of the Song Dynasty, with outstanding achievements, and she is as good as men. But now, there are scoundrels, even spies from foreign countries, who want to use the princess's name to shake the foundation of the country. This is unacceptable! As students, we should distinguish right from wrong and not follow the crowd. "It is our duty to serve the country. When encountering such evil, we should stand up and report it to the court to set things right and eliminate the unhealthy trends!"
Qi Heng's words were sonorous and impassioned. The students were excited and their passion for justice and patriotism were aroused. Everyone responded and vowed to uphold justice, defend the princess's reputation, and jointly defend the Song Dynasty.
As soon as Qi Heng appeared, Minglan's eyes fell on him. Although she had a way to solve today's problem, the moment Qi Heng stepped forward, Minglan's heart was still filled with delicate ripples. Her brother Yuan Ruo has always been so bright and dignified. It is this kind of righteousness that can scare those villains and make his words more convincing.
After handling the affairs, Qi Heng's eyes can't help but penetrate the hustle and bustle of the crowd and fall gently on Minglan. Today, Minglan is not wearing luxurious princess clothes, but a pure and elegant dress, just like the most familiar look in his memory, which makes him infatuated. This undecorated natural beauty makes everything around it pale in comparison.
Seeing this, Rulan raised a sly smile and said softly, "Oh, Xiaoliu, don't look at him anymore. Brother Yuanruo's eyes are almost taking your soul away. Even the others can't help but look at him." Minglan's cheeks
flushed with shame, but her heart was beating like a deer, and it was difficult to calm down. She quickly turned her head away and tried to calm down. At this subtle moment, Minglan caught Huang Fuxiang's figure in her peripheral vision. She stood there, her eyes full of complex emotions, sorrow and resentment, looking in one direction. Minglan followed her line of sight and looked in the direction where Qi Heng was. Minglan's heart sank, as if something had become clear quietly - Huang Fuxiang, could it be that she also cares about Qiheng? Did all those past confrontations stem from this unspoken feeling?
Minglan pondered secretly, but her face remained calm. She withdrew her gaze, and just as she turned around, she keenly felt a cold gaze shooting at her. Minglan turned around abruptly and looked at Huang Fuxiang. Sure enough, she saw that she was staring at her with resentment, as if she wanted to skin her alive. Suddenly, she saw Minglan looking over, and there was no time to change her expression. The resentful look froze on her face.
Minglan suddenly raised the corners of her mouth, smiled meaningfully, and then ignored Huang Fuxiang.
Minglan turned back to look at Qi Heng again. Qi Heng was still looking at her. Minglan glared at him. What a disaster! She cast her eyes on Qi Heng again and saw that he was still looking at her affectionately. His clear eyes seemed to contain thousands of words. Minglan glared at him lightly and muttered in her heart: What a disaster, making people love and hate him!
Mingxi's face was filled with a happy smile. Finally, she didn't have to feel aggrieved. When those people were released from the government office one day, she would take people to beat them up. Only then would she feel better.
The mood is better. The sky is bluer, the scenery is more beautiful, and the people are more pleasing to the eye. Mingxi looks at the warm interaction between Minglan and Qiheng with an almost loving gaze. She looks at Qiheng as a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law. It is the first time that Qiheng is so pleasing to the eye. If he can always be so responsible, he will be a good match for Minglan!
The sound of the gong roared, like spring thunder. The solemn gate of the Gongyuan slowly opened. The official of the Ministry of Rites came out with the list and posted the list outside the gate of the Gongyuan in front of everyone.
