Chapter 332: Zhao Houjing was thrown into prison
Zhao Lingmeng felt relieved after watching it. It was just two kids fighting, but the other one was the second grandson of Prince Kang Qi. Now Zhao Houjing was locked up in Jingzhao Prefecture and couldn't get out.
Prince Kang Qi is the emperor's half-brother. Although they have the same father and mother, he has always stood on the emperor's side, so he has always been favored by the emperor.
"Chun Shui, did you find out why the two of them were fighting?"
"Your Highness, I asked and it turned out that there was a disagreement. When the eldest young master returned to Yuanjing, he was dressed like a refugee and accidentally bumped into Young Master Yang. Young Master Yang then spoke harshly, and the two of them argued for a few words, and finally they came to blows."
Speaking of this, Chunshui was also angry. Originally, the two young masters had fought, and everyone was injured about the same. But the Kangqi Palace actually threw the eldest young master directly into the prison of the Jingzhao prefect. Both of them were commoners, and who was more noble than the other.
Zhao Lingmeng turned to look at General Liu, "General Liu, I have to go back to Yuanjing for two days. I'll trouble you to keep an eye on things here."
General Liu, standing nearby, had also heard the whole story. The Kangqi Palace was so arrogant that they could even throw Princess Funing's son into jail without a single word. He was afraid he'd hit a wall. He really wanted to go back to Yuanjing to watch the fun, but he couldn't leave the military camp.
He could only regret it in his heart, "Your Highness is too polite. I am watching over you here! Nothing will happen."
Zhao Lingmeng nodded gratefully to General Liu, then turned to look at Lord Fan.
Fan Yong quickly stated, "I want to go back with Your Highness. Your Highness must not get into any trouble at this time."
"Okay." Zhao Lingmeng didn't want to cause any trouble at this moment.
Then she looked at Chunshui again, "Chunguang and Qiuyue stay, and everyone else follow me back! In case anything unexpected happens on the way."
"Yes, then I will prepare the carriage!"
Zhao Lingmeng didn't apply to the emperor for permission to go back this time. It was definitely better to go and come back quickly. "No need, just prepare the horses and go back quickly. We will come back after we finish the work!"
Chunshui hesitated for a moment, because she had rarely seen His Highness ride a horse. But she agreed and immediately went down to get the horse. She had no intention of returning to the courtyard to pick up anything, so she just wanted to go and come back quickly.
Meanwhile, Zhao Houjing was sound asleep in prison, not worried at all. He had finally arrived in Yuanjing, and was just waiting for his mother to rescue him.
Dong Mian and Huai Qing, on the other hand, looked around more vigilantly. They were locked up in a large mixed cell. In addition to Zhao Houjing and the other three, there were also some other people who were stealing, cheating, and fighting.
Although the people around were staring at Zhao Houjing and the other two with eager eyes, they could also see that these three were martial artists and did not dare to approach and provoke them easily.
"Hey, why are you three here?" One of the big men shouted at them.
Dong Mian and Huai Qing glared at the big man in tacit understanding. Dong Mian even warned him, "Keep your voice down! Don't disturb our young master's sleep."
"You..." The big man was angry for a moment, then deliberately said loudly: "What kind of young master is this? You ended up in jail."
Zhao Houjing had woken up when the big man said the first sentence and wanted to sleep a little longer. However, the man kept nagging, so he could only get up speechlessly and glanced at the big man casually. "This young master came here because he had a fight with Prince Kang Qi's grandson. Are you sure you want to mess with me?"
Although the big man did not believe that the man in front of him was such a powerful young master, he knew that the man who dared to fight with Prince Kang Qi's grandson was a ruthless person whom he could not afford to offend.
The big man made a gesture to Zhao Houjing, saying, "I'm sorry, brother." Then he found a place to sit far away from Zhao Houjing.
Seeing this man was quite straightforward, Zhao Houjing felt like chatting. He swiftly got up from the ground and took the initiative to sit down next to the big man. "So, brother, why did you come in?"
The big man looked at the poor young master who was approaching and rolled his eyes speechlessly: "You should mind your own business! Prince Kang Qi is not someone you can easily mess with."
"Don't worry about that. My family will find a way to rescue me when I return to Yuanjing. But you don't look like a bad person." Zhao Houjing said as he looked at the man. He saw that he was tall and strong, but he had no intention of bullying the people in the cell.
"Just like you, he got into a fight with the young master of the Jin Mansion and ended up in jail."
"Jin Mansion, which Jin Mansion?" Zhao Houjing thought, could it be the one that has a grudge against their family?
"How many Jin Mansions can you find in Yuanjing City? Just pick the most powerful one!" The big man looked at the man who called himself the young master with suspicion. Can anyone really rescue this guy who doesn't even know about the Jin Mansion?
Oh? Isn't this a coincidence? Zhao Houjing touched his chin and asked happily, "What's your name?"
"My name is Feng Dashan. Let me tell you what's wrong. I don't have any money." The man named Feng Dashan looked at the man in front of him who seemed to have a serious illness and quickly explained his family background.
"Then tell me, why did you fight with the young master of the Jin Mansion?"
Feng Dashan sat a little further aside silently, "What's the point of telling you?"
"Tell me, if it's not a big deal, I'll take you in as a bodyguard."
"You?" Feng Dashan sat a little further to the side. This man looked even more like a liar. He smelled even worse than him. Could he be crazy about becoming a young master?
"Tell me!" Zhao Houjing knew what he was like now, so he didn't care at all about Feng Dashan's move away.
Seeing that this person would not give up until he got the answer, Feng Dashan could only briefly explain, "That bastard took a fancy to my sister and wanted to take her as a concubine. I heard he already had a wife and children at home, so he thought it would cause trouble. So a fight broke out. And then I was thrown in."
Although Feng Dashan spoke simply, his anger was evident.
After hearing what Feng Dashan said, Zhao Houjing knew who he was talking about. It must be that kid Jin Mingcheng who was punished by his mother last time.
"If what you said is true, I will ask my mother to rescue you when the time comes. But you have to be my bodyguard. Don't worry, you have money and you don't need to sign a contract to sell yourself."
Dongmian, who was standing next to him, quickly reminded him, "Master, the master has told you not to meddle in other people's business."
"Don't worry, I will tell mother in person when the time comes." Zhao Houjing felt that he could still take care of this trivial matter, especially if it could make that kid Jin Mingcheng unhappy. He would be happy.
