The carriage stopped in front of Dayingyuan Gate and Tang Ju got off.
Also arriving at the same time were the governors of Cangzhou, Mozhou, and Shenzhou. Together with Tang Ju, a total of four governors appeared in front of the gate at the same time.
The person who reported the news has disappeared deep inside the camp gate. Before being summoned by Princess Lanling, the governors must wait here and not move rashly.
Cangzhou, Mozhou, and Shenzhou are the "neighbors" of Yingzhou. Although the three states are far away from here, they set off a whole day in advance and finally arrived with Tang Ju.
This was something Tang Ju didn't expect.
His expression changed slightly.
And secretly looked at the other three governors——
After they got out of the car and looked up to see Tang Ju, the expressions of the three of them all changed. They looked at each other and leaned together in unison.
And kept a distance of ten feet from Tang Ju.
He neither exchanged polite greetings nor came forward to say hello, and even pretended not to see Tang Ju...
Tang Ju shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Although he had long expected that he would be collectively isolated by the governors of other states and counties, he still felt quite uncomfortable when he actually faced this situation.
That’s it!
Tang Ju let out a long sigh.
Let him go...
However, although Tang Ju silently accepted the cruel reality of being isolated by other governors, this was not the end.
The governors of the three states, who were only a few feet away, secretly pointed at Tang Ju and discussed loudly and unabashedly:
"The flower picker likes to commit crimes in Yingzhou, and Yingzhou has the most victims!"
"Her Royal Highness the Princess's pearl flowers were also stolen from the camp, and the camp is also located on the border of Yingzhou..."
"So, he is under the greatest pressure... Relatively speaking, we are much more relaxed."
"Hey, you said..." A fat-bellied governor lowered his voice and glanced at Tang Ju secretly, but his low voice still penetrated Tang Ju's ears:
"The flower-picking thief has committed a lot of crimes in Yingzhou. Among them... I'm afraid there is something hidden!"
"..."
Tang Ju raised his eyebrows and smelled a conspiracy.
But he did not have a fit, nor did he step forward to interrupt them.
Because it doesn't make sense.
I heard another governor say: "From what you said, it's really possible that the flower picker... won't be secretly colluding with him..."
"..."
"Don't say this nonsense. There is no basis for it. Your Highness the Princess may not be happy when she hears it!" said the third governor.
"..."
The three of them fell silent, with respectful and solemn expressions on their faces. After a while, the fat-bellied governor said again:
"Not only is he incompetent in handling the case, but his identity is also extremely sensitive. As a child of a wealthy family, I am afraid that Her Royal Highness will deliberately target him, even if he loses the veil on his head, it will be a trivial matter!"
"This makes sense..."
"Haha, there will be a good show to watch later!"
"..."
The three governors had a lot of free time, and they discussed loudly and glanced sideways at Tang Ju from time to time, making no secret of their gloating.
Tang Ju stood with his hands lowered, his eyes and nose concerned, and he ignored their gloating, because he himself felt that this trip might be a disaster, and it was better to think about how to deal with it now.
Not long after, a person walked out of the camp gate. He was a personal guard of the Princess Mansion, and he politely invited the four governors into the camp.
After entering the camp gate, the guards led the way, and the three governors accompanied them. Tang Ju was at the back, alone, frowning and looking gloomy.
The guard general did not take them to the Chinese army's main tent to meet Princess Lanling. Instead, he took them to a tent and said:
"Four envoys, please stay here later. Someone will come to invite you when the princess summons you."
"..."
After thanking the soldiers who led the way, the three accompanying governors stepped into the tent.
Tang Ju paused and stepped forward.
However, when he was about to leave, he stopped because there were bursts of pleasant laughter coming from the tent. There were more than three people inside!
It turned out that the governors of Jizhou, Youzhou, Dingzhou and Yizhou had already arrived.
After the governors of Cangzhou, Mozhou and Shenzhou entered, they naturally had to chat and laugh with the governors who had arrived early.
That laughter!
It was particularly harsh to Tang Ju's ears.
After hesitating outside the door for a while, Tang Ju finally stepped inside.
…
Sure enough, the moment he stepped inside, the laughter suddenly stopped and came to an abrupt end.
The governors all looked at him strangely.
Most of them were looks of ridicule or waiting to see his joke.
Tang Ju took a deep breath, regarded them as nothing, and found a seat in a corner to sit down, drinking tea while waiting for Princess Lanling's summons.
He is very calm, and his skill in cultivating Qi is top-notch.
Faced with cynicism from all directions, he remained firm and unmoved.
But even so, he was still quite uneasy. He was not afraid of the sarcastic governors, but he was very afraid of Princess Lanling...
Finally, Princess Lanling sent someone to invite them to the Chinese army's tent.
The governors did not dare to neglect and immediately got up and set off.
Tang Ju, who was isolated by everyone, fell at the back. He vaguely heard someone in front of him saying: "...We can just push him out to take the blame, and nothing will happen to us..."
After hearing this, Tang Ju frowned.
The "he" in the words refers to Tang Ju.
They actually wanted to push Tang Ju out to take the blame?
This made Tang Ju feel even more anxious.
After all, the flower-picking thief mostly committed crimes in Yingzhou. As the governor of Yingzhou, he could not arrest the flower-picking thief. His crime was the biggest among all the governors.
Under this situation, everyone pushed him to take the blame and bear all the anger of Princess Lanling. In fact, he had a lot to do!
Tang Ju secretly clenched his fists.
Soon, all the governors entered the Chinese army's tent and met Princess Lanling together.
Princess Lanling sat high on the handsome chair, raised her eyes to look at the governors, and lightly opened her red lips and asked:
"Where is Tang Ju, the governor of Yingzhou?"
"..."
We don't need to add fuel to the flames, is the princess going to have Tang Ju operated on... The governors standing in the front turned back one after another and looked at Tang Ju, who was standing at the back.
Tang Ju twitched the corner of his mouth, with a calm face, walked through the crowd and came forward, bowed and said: "I'm here."
Princess Lanling nodded, and then said calmly: "Tang Governor, you have given birth to a good daughter!"
Tang Ju's expression changed drastically when he heard this.
He subconsciously took this statement as an irony.
As a father, Tang Ju naturally knew what kind of character Tang Shujing was, always loving to cause trouble.
Today, Princess Lanling said such an ironic statement at the beginning, and Tang Ju had to make up the plot of "Tang Shujing annoyed Princess Lanling".
This damn girl usually just messes around, but now she has offended Princess Lanling... Princess Lanling is a powerful figure in the dynasty... Hey, this damn girl! I will deal with you severely when I go back!
Tang Ju's heart was turbulent, but his face remained calm. He just bowed his waist a little lower and said:
"Your Highness, please calm down. The bad girl was joking and bumped into Her Highness. She is really treasonous. I will discipline her strictly after I return and never let her step out of the house again!"
