Chapter 46 Damage, real damage!
[It’s a loss, it’s really a loss! ]
[These uncles were afraid that the fire would take too long to start, so they carried a few piles of dead branches over on their backs! ]
[Wow, someone brought cooking oil! ]
[Who is General Lei? He went to shovel snow first?! ]
[There are also people who are responsible for fanning! ]
The more Duke Wang listened, the more rapid his breathing became. His body swayed twice, and he barely managed to hold back his anger.
He silently made up his mind that after the court meeting was over, he would not let those brats off!
But the atmosphere behind him, which he couldn't see, was extremely strange.
Some looked at the sky, some looked at the ground, and some simply turned slightly to the side and used their eyes to carefully trace the wrinkles on their colleagues' faces. Their affectionate eyes made the other person's scalp tingle.
Colleague: “???”
ill??
Jiang Yingcheng and 007 finished digging up the funny things that happened in the Duke's Mansion last night, and their attention turned back to the strange accessories worn by the military officers.
[You said that the things those people were wearing were looted from the room of that bad woman named Gu Yurou? ]
[Wow! The generals are awesome! They did what Cheng Cheng wanted to do!!]
This voice lifted the spirits of several people.
Finally, we are getting down to business?!
Tell me quickly, tell me, is the thing they are wearing at the risk of their lives the strange tiger talisman as mentioned in the legend?
At this moment, they only felt that the sound of court officials discussing state affairs with Emperor Mingze seemed to fade away like the tide, and the only sound left in the whole world was the little princess's silver bell-like voice.
Jiang Yingcheng's voice was full of doubt: [But they robbed it and brought it to the palace. Are they afraid that Master Wang doesn't know? Did they set the fire?]
Speaking of this, several people were very upset. They thought that Duke Wang would not attend the court today, so they each picked up the most conspicuous object and wore it on their body.
Who would have thought that the vigorous old man could rush to court as soon as he got out of prison.
Jiang Yingcheng looked around at the few people, gasping with heartache: [Why are they snatching these?! They're going to steal the Tiger Talisman!]
[Oh my! Such a good opportunity! Just wasted like this! ! ]
[Such a large white jade ball, doesn't anyone find it strange?! ]
White jade ball? ?
There was indeed a white jade ball in the package containing the clothes, but it was not convenient to wear, so several people wore other things today to let the little princess identify it.
Now we know that this is what they have been looking for... um...
Now that they knew that it was the half of the tiger talisman that they found after burning down Duke Wang’s yard, they no longer had to wear these embarrassing things!
At the front of the procession of court officials, Duke Wang looked up at Emperor Mingze, his eyes filled with astonishment.
That girl is actually the daughter of an enemy general?
There is still half a tiger talisman on the body? ?
He still found it hard to believe, but when Emperor Mingze noticed his gaze, he turned around immediately and gave him a lazy and slightly comfortable smile.
The smile was barely discernible, but it succeeded in making him dizzy.
It was a life-threatening situation. He had just been released from prison, and now he was going to be put in jail again for harboring the daughter of an enemy general? !
Jiang Yingcheng was not brought to Wuyang Hall to listen today.
As soon as the court meeting was over, Eunuch Changshun took her to the school.
On the way, several generals were eager to step forward and pretend to touch Jiang Yingcheng's soft hair casually, but they were frightened by Lord Wang's angry roar and then fled away at high speed.
“Stop right there, you idiot!” Duke Wang shouted angrily as soon as he left the Chongyun Palace.
The advantage of Duke Wang's long-term physical exercise was fully demonstrated at this moment. His speed was not much slower than those young and strong generals. He could even reach out and touch Jiang Yingcheng's head twice when he passed by her.
Then he stuffed her with a handful of candy.
Before Jiang Yingcheng could finish saying "Thank you, Grandpa Wang", he disappeared from their sight like a gust of wind.
Jiang Yingcheng was stunned by what he saw.
She raised her little face and looked at Uncle Changshun, who knew everything in her heart: "What's wrong with Grandpa Wang and the uncles?"
007 had just told her that Grandpa Wang might not know at this moment that it was a few military uncles who burned down his yard.
Eunuch Changshun looked at Jiang Yingcheng kindly, reached out to straighten Duke Wang's messy hair, and said with a smile: "Duke Wang has been in prison for a long time. It is understandable that he wants to find someone to stretch his muscles after he gets out."
Jiang Yingcheng nodded, not quite understanding.
Then he started to act like a scoundrel: "Chengcheng is hungry!"
Her calculation was very good: [You have to eat before you can go to school to study! ]
Eunuch Changshun: "..."
Today, when he had just arrived at Xingshuang Palace and wanted to pick up the little princess and leave, the palace maid had clearly told him that the little princess was having a meal and asked him to wait a little longer.
He finally experienced the helpless feeling that Concubine Wan felt when she was made to laugh and cry by the little princess.
But he had received the order from Emperor Mingze to send the little princess to the academy in time, so he could only say coldly, "Empress Wan said that you had dinner this morning."
And he deliberately procrastinated for a long time.
Jiang Yingcheng looked up in shock, her face full of hurt, as if she couldn't believe that Uncle Changshun, who had always loved her, would actually reject her request.
Eunuch Changshun hardened his heart and just focused on leading Jiang Yingcheng forward.
After a while, Jiang Yingcheng's aggrieved voice rang out: "Chengcheng is sleepy~"
Eunuch Changshun looked straight ahead and said, "When we get on the sedan chair, you can take a rest inside for a while."
After leaving this courtyard, there will be a sedan to take the little prince to the school. The journey is still some distance, enough for a child of this age to rest.
Another plan failed to work. Jiang Yingcheng pursed his lips, lowered his head and began to think of a new plan.
[Brother Tong, Brother Tong, is it okay to say that I miss my father? ]
007's voice was even more ruthless than that of the eunuch Changshun: [Your father is still in court. What's the difference between going to see him and going to school?]
Jiang Yingcheng thought it made sense, but he still didn't want to give up: [Do you have a stomachache? ]
[Is he terminally ill? ? ]
007: [……]
Eunuch Changshun: "..."
Eunuch Changshun was afraid that she would really start to act like a spoiled brat, so he quickly racked his brains to come up with the only advantage of going to the academy before the young man could speak again: "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince and your new study partner are waiting for you at the academy."
Jiang Yingcheng frowned and bowed his head to think for a while before finally making a difficult choice between a long-term plan to save his life and a short-term plan to be lazy.
Even so, she took the opportunity to make a request: "Then, then Chengcheng must bring lots of snacks!"
With snacks, she can quickly build relationships with her friends by sharing snacks!
Jiang Yingcheng thought happily.
Eunuch Changshun lowered his head and glanced at the little boy's rosy face, and finally smiled with relief: "It has been prepared for Your Highness a long time ago."
Jiang Yingcheng was easy to coax and didn't delay them for too long on the road. When they arrived at the school, they just happened to catch the morning class.
Eunuch Changshun pulled Jiang Yingcheng out of the sedan chair again. As he walked to the door, he heard several childish quarrels coming from inside.
