"But......"
"But what? If Her Royal Highness the Princess loses a hair, can you afford it?"
The maid's face turned cold, and several soldiers suddenly trembled.
How can they afford to offend the eldest princess? Even their boss cannot afford to offend the eldest princess in Chang'an City!
"Come with me!"
The leader of the team understood what was going on after just a brief thought, but at this time, he did not dare to point it out.
There are really too many gods in Chang'an City. It would be better for little people like them to retract their heads honestly. Being able to be used as chess pieces for the eldest princess is considered a blessing to them.
This matter is actually very easy to choose. One side is just a Kaifeng Hou, and the other side is the only eldest princess of the Han Dynasty.
The Jinwu Guards are all veterans. Of course they know what to ask and what not to ask.
In an instant, they and the maid went around a few corners and disappeared from Tao Qing's sight.
The dignified Marquis of Kaifeng was beaten so miserably by a group of thugs on the streets of Chang'an City.
From now on, it is estimated that he will become the laughing stock of the nobles in Chang'an City.
"Jinwuwei! Princess, remember this for me!"
Tao Qing is not blind. The eldest princess is clearly trying to cover the group's escape. This matter most likely has something to do with her.
But now, apart from sitting here and saying harsh words, he actually has no other good solution.
At least, as long as the old man and old lady in the palace are still there, he can't touch the eldest princess. The Han Dynasty governed the country with filial piety. Even if the current prince ascends the throne, there is nothing he can do against his biological sister.
"Master, please be careful!"
The groom next to him quickly got up, helped Tao Qing up, and whispered.
There are more and more people watching. If you say harsh words in front of so many people, isn't this obviously causing trouble for yourself?
"Be careful what you say? Why should you be careful what you say? I have suffered such humiliation in Chang'an City, can't I say a few words?"
The angry Tao Qing almost lost all sense and almost shouted these words in a roar.
"The Marquis of Kaifeng is so powerful! After you were beaten in Chang'an City, you have to cause trouble with Zhuo Jing. Do you feel that I, the Marquis of Tangyi, are made of clay?"
Before Tao Qing finished speaking, a middle-aged man wearing a purple robe suddenly walked out of the teahouse next to him.
Looking at the huge jade pendant on his waist, if it is not the current Tang Yihou, who is it?
The appearance of Chen Wu immediately embarrassed Tao Qing. In terms of strength, although Chen Wu had not held any actual position in the court over the years.
Moreover, the ancestors of the Chen family did not actually leave many connections, but don't forget that his wife is the direct daughter of the current emperor.
Just for Her Royal Highness the Princess to go to the palace to enjoy the pillow wind, he, the Marquis of Kaifeng, will probably be in great misfortune. Not to mention the prime minister who is about to get it, whether he can keep him or not, the position of the Marquis is open to question.
"This, I made a mistake..."
In desperation, Tao Qing could only grit his teeth and swallow back what he just said.
Although he looked down on Chen Wu, a pretty boy, in his heart, who made his wife powerful?
"Slip of a tongue? If I drag out all the eighteen generations of your ancestors and scold them now, can I also use a slip of the tongue to get over it?"
After finally catching Tao Qing's hand, how could Chen Wu give up now?
Before finishing two sentences, he went up and pulled Tao Qing's neck, preparing to drag him to Jinwuwei Yamen to explain clearly.
Now the emperor is still waiting for Tao Qing's reply in the palace. If this matter comes to the Jinwu Guards, relying on their identities, which of the Jinwu Guards officials would dare to come out to see people?
After struggling for a while, at least before nightfall today, he would not think of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Master Hou! Master Hou, please listen to me. All the mistakes in this matter are my fault alone. I was really knocked unconscious by someone today, so I said stupid words. Please Your Majesty, please forgive me!"
In desperation, Tao Qing can only do it now.
With his injuries all over his body, he humbly apologized to Chen Wu.
After a lot of good words, Chen Wu finally let Chen Wu put the matter aside for the time being.
More and more people were watching, and finally another group of Jinwu Guard patrol soldiers arrived, but when they saw the cars waiting in Tangyi from a distance, they immediately shrank into the corner.
They waited until Marquis Tangyi finished losing his temper, got in the car and left, and then they arrived late.
"See the Marquis, we heard that the Marquis was attacked by gangsters in Chang'an City today. Is there any injury to the Marquis?"
The leading soldier asked cautiously.
The corners of Tao Qing's mouth twitched. He originally wanted to say something, but in the middle of his words, he immediately swallowed the words that were on his lips.
Knowing that this was arranged by the eldest princess, what can he do now even if he is placed in a dragnet? It has been almost an hour. Those people may have already fled to Tangyihou's fiefdom at this time. On the way.
No matter how powerful I am, is it possible that I can still let these people go to the fiefdom of Tang Yihou to arrest people?
"I'm fine, I just fell down!"
After gritting his teeth hard, Tao Qing could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, swallowing this matter back in his stomach.
"Since Lord Marquis is fine, I'll take my leave!"
Although Tao Qing was now bruised and swollen, he insisted on saying that he had fallen. Naturally, these soldiers were happy to do more than to do less.
The soldiers of Jinwu Guard left. Looking at the pointing crowd, Tao Qing really felt that he was extremely unlucky today.
"Master Marquis, shall we go to the Prime Minister's Mansion now?"
After the servants of the Tao family packed up the carriage again and collected all the scattered things, the coachman asked in a low voice.
Tao Qing was speechless for a while. He looked at his clothes that were already in disarray and felt the burning pain on his face. How could he face Shen Tujia with this look?
He has always regarded himself as the successor of Shen Tujia, but now he looks like this, how can he be so popular with others!
"Go back to the house first!"
After gritting his teeth and throwing down the four words, Tao Qing could only go back to his house to change his clothes before making any plans.
Today's tone, even if he couldn't bear it, he had to endure it. Although he kept this hatred in his heart, he didn't know when he would be able to let out this sullen tone.
