Zhang Yan thought she would be rejected.
She has seen too many ways to manipulate people in the palace.
Just like boiling an eagle, you have to boil people until they are physically and mentally exhausted, helpless, and submissive before you give up.
But to her surprise, that was not the case.
Long Zuguang came out and led her in directly.
When he came to the back, Zuo Mengeng was talking to Xu Ruolin, so he asked her to sit down, as usual.
Where can Zhang Yan sit still?
"Your Majesty, this child Cixi is ignorant and got into trouble because of lack of discipline. Please be careful and don't argue with children."
Zuo Mengeng and Xu Ruolin actually knew why she came, and they laughed together when they heard this.
"What are you thinking? This matter has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Yan said nothing, but her eyes were full of suspicion.
Zuo Mengeng had no choice but to spread his hands.
"Haven't you noticed that my daughter hasn't come back either?"
Zhang Yanxin said that the palace is so big, who can know where Zuo Xuanyan is hiding?
"Your Royal Highness, the golden branches and jade leaves, are indescribably precious. How can you compare them to ordinary people?"
Zuo Mengeng sighed helplessly, thinking that as an emperor, he didn't even have the ability to convince others.
He had no choice but to signal Xu Ruolin with his eyes, then stood up and left.
After he left, Xu Ruolin stroked her forehead, full of resentment.
"Even if my sister doesn't believe it, it's true. My girl and her children are all locked up in the police station now. She won't be released until the end of the day."
Zhang Yanxin said, what drama are you two singing for me?
"How dare the people below be so disrespectful? Aren't they afraid of His Majesty's thunderous wrath?"
As the couple lives their lives, they will gradually become more and more similar, and Xu Ruolin also spreads her hands.
"Didn't His Majesty say it himself? The country's laws are above all else and cannot be tarnished. Don't say that the prince broke the law. Even if he broke the law, he must be treated equally."
Zhang Yan just shook her head.
"The so-called prince who broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people is just a way to appease people's hearts. Does your Majesty still take it seriously?"
Xu Ruolin laughed and poured tea for her with her own hands.
"Of course things in this world are not that simple. However, His Majesty will definitely not break the laws on such trivial matters, so as not to weaken his authority. Besides, these children are so bold that they dare to fight in the street. Even if they are imprisoned for a few days, they can be cured. Let them be more honest."
Zhang Yan is still worried.
"Can I go see the kids?"
Xu Ruolin took it easy and asked Pu Jingyan to bring a baggage.
"If sister wants to go, help me give the things inside to that girl."
When she said this, Zhang Yan was finally filled with surprise.
Is Zuo Xuanyan really locked up in the police station?
That's the princess of the dynasty, the emperor's daughter!
However, when she arrived at the police station, she really saw a large group of children imprisoned in iron bars, each one pitiful against the other.
"It's all children who don't know the importance of things, which makes my aunt worry."
Zhu Cixi couldn't even lift his head, feeling extremely guilty.
Ever since he was a child, he has never done anything so outrageous. Now that the country is ruined and the family is ruined, he still wants to cause trouble and make his elders worry, and he has not yet set an example for his younger brothers and sisters.
If his parents knew about it, they would definitely blame him for being unfilial.
Zhang Yan looked at him carefully and found that there was nothing serious about him except that he looked a little haggard, so she was relieved.
What's more, Zuo Xuanyan and others are locked up here, which is enough to show that the laws of the empire do treat everyone equally.
"Don't think wildly, and don't cause trouble in there. The family is waiting for you to come back."
Hearing her warm and comforting voice, Zhu Cixiang couldn't help crying, and he had grown a lot invisibly.
When Zhang Yan saw the aggrieved Zuo Xuanyan huddled in the corner, with a tiger squatting on both sides, lowering its head and admitting its mistake, Zhang Yan couldn't hold it in any longer, so she pursed her lips and laughed.
The royal family of this empire is really weird.
"Director Yan really dares to imprison the princess when Bao Gong is alive and Hai Rui is reborn."
The person who received her was Police Chief Yan Ze.
This is an unsmiling guy.
"Don't mention it as a princess. Even if His Majesty breaks the law, he must be detained. Unless the law is changed, no one can violate it."
Feeling his majestic aura, Zhang Yan couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Although officials of the Ming Dynasty often took pride in disobeying the emperor, in the final analysis, they were only fighting for their own private reputation and reputation.
People like this, who dare to fight against even the emperor in order to maintain laws and systems, will definitely live or die in the Ming Dynasty.
"Director Yan, aren't you afraid of causing trouble for yourself?"
Yan Ze still didn't change his character.
"Everything I do is in accordance with His Majesty's orders and legal framework. Since I have done nothing wrong, why should I be afraid of getting into trouble?"
Zhang Yan shook her head and realized that it was just a lump of elm wood.
Things in the world are far from black and white. When a person like this becomes an official, I'm afraid the end will not be too good.
"Of course Director Yan is not afraid. He is a member of His Majesty's bodyguard. He has followed His Majesty from birth to death and is deeply trusted by Your Majesty. This guy only listens to His Majesty's words. He will take whatever His Majesty says and will not change even a word. Without this identity, he would not be able to change a single word. How can we suppress dragons and tigers and maintain law and order in Jinan City?"
After listening to Li Yanling's story, Zhang Yan suddenly realized.
No wonder Yan Ze was an unknown person, but he was able to serve as the magistrate of the capital with numerous princes and officials.
It turns out that the foundation is here.
But even so, she could only admire him.
Not only do I admire Yan Ze's insistence on legal rules, but I also admire Zuo Mengeng's broadmindedness.
As an emperor, you can not be fettered by family ties and always adhere to rules and regulations.
Even the emperor has achieved this level, so others naturally dare not go out of their way.
"The princess is so aggressive and neglects etiquette. Aren't you afraid of causing criticism to the royal family in the long run?"
Li Yanling laughed.
"What you don't know is that our princess is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but her performance in all subjects is second to none, unmatched by anyone. It's just because she is so powerful in martial arts that other aspects have been obscured. Chao All the ministers said that Her Royal Highness the Princess is a genius whose future achievements are immeasurable."
Zhang Yan's heart moved.
"You mean..."
How dare Li Yanling talk loudly about this topic.
"Who can say for sure? Anyway, the days are still long."
Zhang Yan understood the twists and turns more clearly, nodded slightly, and was much more impressed by Zuo Xuanyan.
But thinking that Zuo Xuanyan, who is about the same age as Zhu Yuchan, can actually beat a boy who is nearly ten years older in boxing and kicking, I really don't know how Zuo Menggeng and his wife raised her.
Her thoughts drifted away, and she went through all the characters in Lao Zhu's family for more than two hundred years in her mind.
As a result, it was shockingly discovered that except for Zhu Yuanzhang, who swept the world in civilian clothes, and Zhu Di, who made a comeback in the isolated city, there was no such outstanding person.
This great Ming Dynasty did not die unjustly.
After experiencing this incident, Zhang Yan calmed down and no longer worried about Zhu Cixiang's condition.
On the contrary, I feel that the current empire seems to be more and more interesting.
