Chapter 6 The Prince Who Failed to Revolt
It is indeed much easier to push the car downhill, and you only need to use a little effort to control the speed.
When they were about to reach a flat road, a carriage suddenly blocked their way.
Zhang Xiaojia hurried forward and saw He Fei in the car. She quickly took out the wheelchair, carefully carried him down, and checked him carefully. Only after confirming that he was fine did she feel a little relieved.
She turned and glared at Constable Wang, demanding, "Constable Wang, who are you, and how dare you be so rude?"
Captain Wang replied, "She is the second daughter of the Sansi Envoy's family."
"The second sister of Concubine De?" Zhang Xiaojia frowned.
"Exactly."
"You didn't ask them to make way?"
"The subordinates have informed them, but their maids said that a prince who was guarding the imperial tomb was not worthy of them making way."
Zhang Xiaojia's face instantly darkened when she heard that. She was unhappy. Since she was unhappy, then everyone would be unhappy together. She would never let herself be wronged, and she would never let anyone look down on her!
"Captain Wang, give the groom ten lashes, give the maid who just spoke five lashes, and report this matter to the emperor." Zhang Xiaojia ordered.
I saw Captain Wang telling his men to carry out his orders and heard their cries.
"Captain Wang!" she ordered, "Give the groom ten lashes, give the maid who just spoke five lashes, and report this matter to the Emperor!"
Captain Wang immediately ordered his men to carry out the order. The crack of whips echoed, accompanied by the cries of the maid and the groom, and the scene suddenly became extremely tragic.
The woman in the sedan looked at Zhang Xiaojia with a face full of sarcasm: "Do you really think you are a princess? You are just the princess of a useless man, and you dare to hit him? I will ask my sister to punish you!"
Zhang Xiaojia sneered, "Even if Consort De is here today, she has to make way for me! Who do you think you are? You dare to shout like that with no official rank! Also, I am acting according to the emperor's order. His Majesty has clearly written in the imperial edict that I am free. No matter where I am, I can live in peace and no one dares to harm me! Captain Wang, arrange for two people to escort them back to the capital and hand them over to the Wude Division for disposal!"
Following Zhang Xiaojia's order, two constables stepped forward, arrested the woman and her maid, and prepared to take them back to the capital.
Zhang Xiaojia was well aware of the nature of people in the court who were sycophantic, hypocritical, and treacherous.
She knew that if she showed any weakness today, those people would take advantage of the situation tomorrow, thinking that she had fallen out of favor and would come to her house to cause trouble without restraint.
The original owner had a bad personality and had offended many people. She had offended most of the princesses in the court by relying on her power. If she took a step back today, she would be bullied to death tomorrow.
To avoid endless trouble in the future, she chose to make a scene today. This way, everyone in the court would stay away from her. After all, she dared to openly offend even the emperor's relatives, so they naturally didn't dare to provoke her easily.
"Zhang Xiaojia, please let me go. My father is the Three-Division Envoy, and my sister is Consort De. How dare you, the deposed princess of a deposed prince who failed in his rebellion, offend me?"
"My aunt is the Dowager Consort, and my eldest cousin is the Emperor. Even if I lose my position as Princess, I am still the only first-rank county lady in the Great Zhou Dynasty, with fiefdoms, taxes, and fiefdoms. What are you competing with me for? Bet on me."
In other words, if He Fei is fine, she will take her life if He Fei is in trouble.
When Zhang Xiaojia reached a flat road, he did not let He Fei get on the car. He secured He Fei with the wheelchair straps, put the cart ropes on his shoulders, pushed the wheelchair, pulled the cart, and walked quickly, wanting to get to the post station quickly.
Zhang Xiaojia really used all her strength. Seeing that it was about to rain when they arrived at the post station, Zhang Xiaojia quickly carried He Fei into the stroller, put the wheelchair away, and rushed into the post station.
Zhang Xiaojia carried He Fei down and placed him on a wheelchair. Some officials also entered the inn behind her. Her heart skipped a beat, wondering if they were going to quarrel again!
The postmaster had been standing behind Zhang Xiaojia and said respectfully, "County Lady, the upper room is ready, and the water is also ready. The food will be served shortly."
Zhang Xiaojia nodded and said, "Let's prepare a table of food for Captain Wang and the others to eat."
"yes"
The officials' families at the back heard that the entire second floor was booked and knew that the superior suite was occupied by the woman and the man in the wheelchair. However, the upper rooms on the left and right were occupied by the constables, and their faces turned unhappy.
"But aren't there three more rooms upstairs?"
The postmaster refused, saying, "What if we disturb the Lady County? His Majesty has issued an order that throughout the entire posthouse, as long as the Lady County arrives, everything will be done with her in mind. She will be given priority."
The girls of the Li family helped their grandmother into the only upper room on the first floor. They looked at the furnishings in the room and frowned.
"Grandma, let's go talk to the county lady and ask her to give us a room on the second floor! This room is no match for the second floor. Besides, she won't refuse us. We are..." Li Jiangyi
Li Jiangshang interrupted her softly, saying, "Second sister, no, grandmother, why did Prince Jing go to guard the imperial mausoleum? But the emperor can restore the princess from the position of princess to the position of county princess, which shows that the emperor values this sister. We don't know the county princess's temper. What if she is not easy to deal with? What if something happens and it affects my father's future?"
Li Jiangyi said unconvincedly, "Big sister, a princess should greet Grandma politely when she sees her. She's just a county lady, what's there to worry about?"
Li Jiangshang sighed and said, "Second sister, the Princess of Chang'an has no fiefdom or fiefdom, only an annual salary; but the title of the County Lord is Lin'an, which comes with fiefdom and fiefdom, and taxes. Do you dare to say that to a mere County Lord?"
"What's the difference?" Li Jiangyi still didn't quite understand.
Li Jiangshang looked at his delicate second sister and held his forehead with his hand. "Lin'an! Such a rich fief is given to her. How many princes and dukes in the Great Zhou can get such a title and fief? This county lady is the emperor's only cousin. She has been raised by Concubine Chen's side and has been pampered since she was a child in the palace. The relationship is different. Princess Chang'an has been raised in Jinling and cannot be compared."

Zhang Xiaojia was wet all over. She first took a bath and soaked for a long time. Fortunately, her medical skills were excellent. After soaking in the bath today, she felt comfortable all over. After a good sleep, she would be full of energy the next day.
After she finished washing, she cleaned He Fei, let He Fei go to the toilet, gave him acupuncture and massage.
Zhang Xiaojia looked at the scar on her face in the bronze mirror and felt concerned. She had always been stunningly beautiful, but this scar was so ugly! Her skin was fair and delicate. It had been exposed to the wind and rain over the past two days, but it was still so good and tender. She took out the face cream she had made from her bag and started applying it. She didn't want to make herself ugly this year. She wanted to be beautiful.
