Five-year enthronement three-year simulation
Chapter 91
"Nine...Your Highness?"
Lin Xun's voice was neither loud nor soft, so that everyone around could hear him clearly.Yu Ying and Third Sister were the closest to Ming Tan, and they were not in a daze for a while, but they all turned to look at the latter in unison, with a dazed expression on their faces.
To be called His Highness by the Commander of the Forbidden Army... What is the origin of this young woman who just showed them great kindness?
On the other side, under the focus of everyone's eyes, Ming Tan's face was almost green.She slashed at Lin Xun fiercely with her eyes, as if she wanted to slice a peony flower knife on him. Just about to start the training, Lin Shurong grabbed her sleeve by the side and said in a low voice, "It's not suitable to stay here for long, Your Highness, we Or hurry—"
Before she could finish her words, a scholar standing next to Yu Ying had already reacted, stretched out his hand in surprise, and quickly turned to his friend, "Ninth Princess! It's really Ninth Princess! Brother Qin, didn't you also read it before?" Arrived? The last time that Sun Wenliang from Jinfeng Bookstore went to Shun'an Study to make trouble, and when the Imperial Army arrested him, the Ninth Princess was among them!"
"Yes, the veil was blown away at that time, and many people saw the true face of Her Highness the Princess, who is a very beautiful young woman!"
"What? It's really His Royal Highness Ninth Princess?"
"The old man's son transferred the Imperial Army precisely because of Princess Nine. He was taught so heroically, so he voted for the martial arts exam and passed the exam! The princess is really the lucky star of my people!"
"Wait, my lord, all the girls in the arena are so pretty, which one is the Ninth Princess?"
"Oh, I don't even need to ask? The ninth princess just reached the age of Ji this year, so it must be the younger girl—this girl Ying'er, your ancestor must have been very kind, and she was rescued by the ninth princess herself. But what a blessing!"
Yu Ying grew up in Louzhou, and she came to Beijing with her brother and sister not long ago, so she has no idea about the good reputation of the Ninth Princess.When some people were confused about the situation, they saw that the person who had just talked to her was taken aback for a moment, looking around and asking, "Huh? Where's the princess? Where did the princess go?"
"Strange, why did people disappear in the blink of an eye?"
A few imperial guards quickly escorted the troublemakers and thugs, but no one cared to applaud them. All the people were busy looking for the figure of the nine princesses. The news spread to the crowd in an instant, and there were immediately The outermost people shouted loudly: "Princess! The princess is here!"
"Your Highness Nine, Your Highness Ninth! Thanks to you for recommending the imperial envoy to help Yuanzhou in disaster relief, otherwise my old father who is far away from home would definitely not be able to survive. I would like to thank you face to face even in my dreams!"
"The forbidden army patrols the city every day to keep my house safe, thank you Your Highness Ninth Princess!"
"Hey, Mrs. Li, what's the matter? Why are all the big guys looking for the princess?"
"Oh, you are so stupid! The ninth princess once found Xiangrui in the Dongfeng paddock, and she must be a person protected by the gods! If you don't go, don't get in the way. My son is going to have a spring in the near future. Hurry up and let me touch the nine princesses." Good luck, to guarantee his title on the gold list!"
"The nobles of the Tian family subdued the people, and the last time it was recorded in the previous court: it was Princess Xuanji who saw injustice, and she simply showed her identity to uphold justice for the children who were wronged and stolen. After the incident, she was admired by thousands of people. How similar is the situation of eradicating the evil and helping the weak!"
"Our Princess Yonghui has made great achievements, not much more than the former Princess Xuanji? This is the kind person who should be admired by all people!"
"What are you still doing? Hurry up, I want to see the princess' true face!"
……
The news spread quickly, and there were already many people watching the juggling of the Yuying brothers and sisters. Some of them indirectly received the favor of the Ninth Princess, some believed in the auspicious words, and some simply wanted to join in the fun. , showing that he is also the lucky one who has seen the royal family and nobles with his own eyes-in a short while, the lineup has expanded to a small half of Fangji Street.
Ming Tan wished to step on two hot wheels on the soles of his feet, and ran very fast, while running, he hurriedly turned his head, glanced at the people who were coming straight towards him, and almost fell down on the spot with his eyes darkened.
Why are there so many people!
She endured it for a long time but couldn't hold back, suddenly raised two fingers, slammed Lin Xun on the head, and cursed in a bad tone: "Look at what you did!"
Lin Xun got into a catastrophe and didn't dare to refute even half a word. His usual prestige became pitiful, and he cried while running, "I didn't expect this to happen..."
"Today is the third day of junior high school. It's rare to be free. I still want to go shopping with your sister. It's all ruined now!"
"Oh, I was wrong, I was wrong, it's all because I can't speak, sister..."
"Okay," Lin Shurong frowned, glared at his younger brother angrily and helplessly, stretched out his hand to protect Ming Tan in front of him, and briefly explained, "Ah Lun, you should go immediately and take the imperial guards who are patrolling the city elsewhere and the Shuntian Mansion. Bring from the government office, control the scene, maintain the order of the people, and avoid accidents due to the crowd; Your Highness, let's go back to the teahouse now, and we must not be accidentally injured by the crowd!"
Ming Tan supported his waist and took a breath, then nodded in agreement.
——At this point, it is impossible to talk about evacuation, so we have to make mistakes and have a temporary fan meeting.
And after listening to Lin Shurong's concise instructions, Lin Xun also turned around and left in a hurry, leaving Mingtan and Lin Shurong to look at each other, hammering his forehead with a headache, and rushing towards the teahouse right in front of him with the wind blowing under his feet. go.
Terrible!
The next time she meets Lin Xun when she leaves the palace, she must hide away and never say a word to him!
The sweat on Mingtan's face and the tears in his heart were like rain. As soon as he ran into the teahouse, he rushed to the second floor in a familiar way, startling Xiaoer who came to greet him, and was about to stop him, but Lin Shurong, who was following closely, stopped his movements and ordered in a low voice: "Send someone to guard the stairs in the teahouse quickly, and no one is allowed to go up!"
"This, this, girl..."
"Do as I say first, and then ask your Shopkeeper Zou later!"
Lin Shurong didn't want to talk nonsense, and directly took out a whole ingot of silver from her purse, stuffed it into the opponent's hand, turned around and ran up to the second floor in a hurry.
Xiaoer was left alone standing in the same place, pinching the money at a loss, thinking for a long time, and finally took the short hand, shook his head, turned around and followed Lin Shurong's instructions.
However, he just asked a few brothers to stand in front of the stairs, and before he had time to return to the counter, a large group of people suddenly poured in outside the door, saying something loudly, "His Royal Highness just entered this teahouse" , the trouble made Xiao Er very confused, hurried forward, crossed his hands and smiled: "Guest officer, what's the matter? What's the matter?"
"I don't know what Xiaoer is. Just now, Her Royal Highness Princess Yonghui appeared on the street and just happened to enter your teahouse after saving a girl who was almost robbed from a brothel." The answer was a young man dressed as a scholar. He was personable and rationally explained to Xiaoer, "We are all people who have received the favor of the princess. We are grateful and intend to see her with our own eyes. That's why we ventured into the teahouse and hope that the shopkeeper will be happy..."
As soon as the words fell, there were many responses from behind: "Yes, His Highness the Ninth Prince has shown great kindness to the people of the capital——I happened to meet Princess Weifu today, and I want to thank her personally!"
"This……"
Xiao Er scratched his head, hesitated for a moment, and persuaded truthfully: "Guest officers, Your Royal Highness is a man of gold, jade leaves, and gold, how can it be easily seen by ordinary people like us? No matter who you are, you have so many hands. Miscellaneous, what if I accidentally hurt the princess? ——His Royal Highness is kind-hearted and considerate of all people. Everyone’s gratitude must have been remembered in his heart... You should leave as soon as possible, don’t make it difficult for the small shop, or Don't make it difficult for His Royal Highness the Ninth Princess..."
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but looked at each other, and lowered their heads in shame.
After all, the people at the foot of the imperial city are quite qualified. Although they tried their best to see Mingtan, they were only dazzled by the excitement for a while. I can't stop feeling a little scared.
If it was true what the other party said, they accidentally hurt the Ninth Princess just now——then even if they had ten lives, they still wouldn't be able to pay for it!
The few people in the front row looked at each other, then looked at the large army huddled behind them, and couldn't help smiling bitterly: "Xiaoer is very right... But even if I want to go out now, I have no way out." Back off."
Xiao Er also looked at this scene worriedly, and when he was thinking of a solution, he suddenly heard a few unclear shouts from behind.After a while, the crowd at the door slowly dispersed, and two commanders of the imperial army in light armor stepped forward and looked around the teahouse. Among them, the younger one said first: "Master Geng, wait for me to go up and ask for instructions." some time?"
The older one nodded and sighed, "So many people have already gathered, it's impossible to persuade them to disperse, so this is the only way..."
So, everyone watched the young commander whisper to Xiao Er, and then went upstairs; while the elder also turned around with a serious face, calling for the imperial guards to file in, and began to clear the scene in the teahouse.
……
Lin Xun, led by shopkeeper Zou, came down to the private room, and when he knocked on the door, he saw Ming Tan leaning against the window, carefully poking out one eye to look down, and said with satisfaction, "Geng Jing is still reliable!"
In such a short while, the forbidden army and the Shuntian government officials opened a human wall outside the door, blocking the common people from the teahouse.
Ming Tan glanced down from a high place, and Wu Yaya was full of people, and there were many curious people who were attracted by this scene, and they kept joining the crowd to watch the fun.
Although it was still a mess, it was much more orderly than before, and there was no risk of a stampede. Finally, Ming Tan breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned her head and glared at Lin Xun again, "Can you learn more from Commander Geng!"
"..." Lin Xun wept with a mournful face, not daring to answer a word, and seemed to be about to kneel down to her.
On the contrary, Lin Shurong was merciful once, and did not put any pressure on his younger brother, but only explained to him in detail: "Your Highness can't hide the matter in the teahouse, and it is impossible to let them go away...so wait After a while, His Highness will speak to the people from the window, you and Commander Geng must pay more attention to security, firstly, don’t let the crowd stir up trouble, and secondly, take strict precautions against people with evil intentions, do you understand?”
"Yes." Lin Xun nodded, "The teahouse has been cleared, and I have sent people to guard it. It's just this matter... the scene is a bit big, do you want to send people to report to the palace immediately?"
"Don't worry, the palace should already know the news," Ming Tan lazily propped his chin beside him, and sighed a thousand times, "Fortunately, it's the Chinese New Year, and the court is closed according to the law, so I can still suffer from those imperial guards a few days later." Shi's scolding..."
The culprit, the younger brother of the Lin family, was silent.
"Oh, by the way, there's something else - you have to remember to tell Shuntian Mansion to make a judgment on the building where the women were robbed before."
Ming Tan tapped the corner of the table slowly with his fingertips, and reminded: "Openly despise the king's law, try to falsify the contract of sale, and force the woman into low status. Status...everything is a serious crime, and it is obviously not the first one. Acting like this this time also involves whether there is a secret corruption in the Louzhou government, and the implications are serious. You should quickly send someone to investigate in the name of the capital government, and seal up that brothel for me by the way!" She sneered, "Otherwise, They really treat the law as a vegetarian!"
——This is also the fundamental reason why Ming Tan insisted on meddling in this business.
Liu Binke, a famous poet, once said in an article in "On Heaven": Man can surpass the sky, and the law is also.
Only when the court of a country has strict laws, impartial judgments, and awe of the law can it guarantee social stability to the greatest extent.
Therefore, facing such an example of blatantly ignoring the law, Ming Tan chose to help Yu Ying without hesitation.The first is to protect the weak and uphold justice, and the second is to demonstrate the importance of the law inherited from heaven, so that the people understand that justice is not empty, it will protect every good person, and it will also make every villain suffer from them. deserved punishment.
Furthermore, if she and Lin Shurong hadn't taken the lead today to arouse the jealousy of the common people to help each other, then Yu Ying's fate just now... would be really hard to say.
So now, even if he was recognized and caused such a big trouble, Ming Tan never regretted his actions at that time.
——Hey, isn't it just being scolded by the censor a few more times?
Anyway, it's not like she hasn't been scolded before... It doesn't itch when there are too many lice, and it doesn't worry if there are too many debts.
Ming Tan thought about it, watched Lin Xun leave the private room, then tilted his head, looked at Lin Shurong with tears in his eyes, and sincerely asked for help: "Qingqing—to the people below, what should I say? What's good-"
"Aren't you pretty good at talking normally? Just play as usual."
Lin Shurong folded his sleeves and gave her a sideways glance, but he didn't intend to help at all.
It's not that she is cruel... It's that His Highness will have to face this kind of scene of having fun with the people many times in the future. She must have the experience of acting on the spot and organizing words.
Ming Tan also understands this truth.
So, seeing that Lin Shurong made up her mind to stand by and watch, she had no choice but to squash her lips, and leaned back to the window, looked at the people lined up following the order and rules for a while, and then looked at the bustling streets lined with shops, feeling in her heart Can't help but feel a lot of emotion.
Fangji Street can have the bustling appearance it is today, of course it is her handwriting.
Thinking about it now, after a hundred years, many of the changes that have taken place on this street will be included in the history textbooks of junior and senior high schools, and students will be asked to "analyze the reasons why the forbidden army patrols the city from a political and economic perspective", "Tian Cheng The era background of the lifting of the curfew", "Briefly describe the significance of the prosperity of Fangji Street" and other test questions to answer——
Persecution of candidates, just think about it!
Ming Tan's mind is filled with the vicious ideas of educators, and when he thinks of the hairs that will fall out of the students in the future, he can't help but cover his lips and smile, feeling that his future is bright.
Still have to work harder to add to the thickness of their history textbooks, test papers and reference books!
"..."
Lin Shurong sat at the side, looking at her shaking shoulders because she was holding back her laughter, with a strange and worried expression on her face.
Your Highness looks like this...you won't say anything you shouldn't say, right?
——Facts have proved that although Ming Tan always looks like a fool, he is still very reliable in major matters.
When the order downstairs finally stabilized, and Lin Xun waved upwards to give a signal, Ming Tan took a deep breath, opened the window wide, leaned half of his body out, and waved at the people downstairs. Waving his hand, the bright smile on his face was clearly visible.
The two-story building is not considered high, and some people have long looked up at it.At this moment, when the Ninth Princess finally appeared, it was as if flames had fallen into the pile of bamboo tubes underneath, and there was a burst of loud cheers.
"Your Highness Ninth! It's really Your Highness Ninth!"
"Princess Yonghui Wan'an! The princess is a thousand years old!"
"I didn't expect that I, a mere mortal, would have the honor to see the princess's face! This is really a big event that smokes from the ancestral grave!"
"His Royal Highness, thank you for changing the training method of the imperial army before, so that my son will not suffer from pain and illness in the camp, and the women will always be gracious—"
"Just now I heard from them that the Ninth Princess saved a little girl who was almost snatched into a brothel with her own hands... Sigh, if this happened a few years ago when the Ninth Princess had the worst reputation, then I would I definitely won't believe it..."
"It's different now. The Ninth Princess can hunt auspicious signs from the paddock. Doesn't it mean that she is a person deeply favored by the gods? It's a great fortune for me to have such a lucky star!"
People talked a lot, and gradually became noisy. Ming Tan didn't actually hear clearly how they thanked him, but he could guess one or two from their expressions, and a warmth that couldn't be ignored filled his heart involuntarily.
A strong country must not only have strength, but also have the trust and admiration of the people.
After she came to this era, everything she did was to help these simple and sincere people live a better life, and it was all to make them change their views on the court and themselves... …
So, has she fulfilled her duties as a princess well?
Could it be... that her soul, who has occupied the magpie's nest, can finally give the original owner of this body a perfect enough explanation?
"..."
Ming Tan gently closed his eyes, and suddenly raised his voice: "Everyone!"
After hearing Princess Nine's words, the people downstairs immediately fell silent, and all looked up at her. There was not much fear of the royal family in their eyes, but there was obvious respect and kindness in their eyes.
Because in the past few years, everything Ming Tan did was closely related to them.Everyone knows that the Ninth Princess has a heart for all people and a benevolent disposition, so why would she be afraid of her?
Those who truly win the hearts of the people do not stand high on the altar and receive incense and worship; they should stand beside the people, be respected and loved by them from the bottom of their hearts, and become an existence that they can rely on with confidence.
"—Everyone! As a child of the Tiancheng royal family, Ming Tan is supported by all people. It is only natural to do things for the court and the people. I dare not be grateful to you!"
On the tall teahouse, the young girl spoke solemnly, with a serious expression, and firmly shouted to the people: "If a country wants to prosper, military affairs must not be left behind. That's why I strongly recommend a strong forbidden army and carry forward military exercises." ; In addition, there is an old saying, "When the year is hungry, send out the millet of the farmers, and raise the people to make a profit." Therefore, the imperial court must do its best to cure the drought and relieve the disaster, and it is even more obligatory to save the crisis in Yuanzhou; During the grand ceremony, the auspicious appearance of the white fox in the Dongfeng paddock is a sign of the prosperity of the country, the peace of the people, and the benefits of the monarch, so what does it have to do with me?" She paused, lowered her eyes, and shook her head heavily, "So, today, everyone Ming Tan feels ashamed of his gratitude, and cannot bear to accept it..."
After these words, the originally noisy street was almost so quiet that a needle could be heard. Everyone's expressions were complicated and different, but their eyes were surprisingly the same, full of admiration for what she said.
Even though she has made so many great achievements, Princess Yonghui still does not claim credit or pride, and her words are modest, so that everyone present can hear the sincerity in her tone.
Throughout the past and present, it is indeed a great fortune for the people of Tiancheng to have such a royal daughter who cares about the people!
Bathed in people's admiring gazes, Ming Tan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, sighed deeply, but soon smiled again, and suddenly waved his hand and said: "However, if everyone still feels grateful, there is nothing to express. If so, why not join me in praying to God—to wish me heaven and earth, and eternal peace!"
The last sentence was so loud that people couldn't help but feel excited. Even if it attracted many people to repeat it slowly until it was uniform, the sound was as loud and trembling as a mountain roaring and a tsunami——
"Wish me heavenly inheritance, and eternal peace!"
……
At the same time, in the palace.
The Tianhong Hall was quite different from usual today, unexpectedly there was a rare visitor.He has gray hair, is wearing a short shirt, and his face is wrinkled and smiling. He looks plain and simple from head to toe, as if he is no different from those old people in the streets and alleys.
Such an ordinary little old man who is even inconspicuous, obviously has nothing to do with the luxurious Tianhong Palace, but he is actually calm, with his waist straight, sitting upright in the most noble palace in Tiancheng. Opposite the Ninth Five-Year Lord, as if an old friend who has been reunited for many years, he had a hand-to-hand talk with him.
Gently picked up a white piece, and put it on the chessboard at will. While listening carefully to Sheng An's report of the news from Fangji Street, the old man raised his head, stroked his beard slowly, and said to the emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty can now Do you know that what the old man said back then is true?... These nine princesses are destined to be extraordinary, and they are destined to do great things and bear great responsibilities!"
——If Ming Tan and Lin Shurong were present at this time, they would immediately recognize that this person was the very weird shop owner they met when they were buying river lamps in Fangji Street many years ago, old man Wen!
"...The Master of the Pochen Temple, Shangshui Daoist, has a miraculous Taoism. You Shan, divination and divination, when did I not believe it?"
With a faint smile on the emperor's lips, he slowly stepped the black chess into the game, recalling the past and said: "Since the time when the dragon scale was born, you deliberately entered the palace for divination, and asserted that she was carrying half of the real dragon's aura, In the future, there must be a female emperor's life... that is, since then, I have been cultivating her as the crown prince, and I have devoted myself to it, and I have finally waited for the grand occasion of the return of all people."
"Hey, the old man violated the way of heaven in the past, and leaked the heavenly secrets of Ziwei, the lord of the Ninth Prince, without authorization. How can he still deserve the Taoist title of 'Shangshui'?" Old man Wen waved his hand, just like back then Facing what Rong Tan and the others said, he stubbornly corrected, "Your Majesty just call me Old Man Wen."
Although the other party's tone was extremely free and easy at this time, the emperor still couldn't help but sighed, and said sincerely: "After so many years, I haven't asked Longlin to come in person to thank Dao Dao for righteousness. I am willing to sacrifice Dao Dao for my future national destiny." ..."
"Your Majesty is serious. The emperor's fate was calculated by the nine princesses, which is a symbol of the old man's perfection. How can he say sacrifice?" Old man Wen waved his hand, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Besides, A few years ago, I met the Ninth Princess on purpose. At that time, her half dragon's breath had been fully completed, and the fate of Ziwei gathered at the top and the real dragon was alive-so, Your Majesty has hidden such a secret. Years of knots can finally be resolved, right?"
"Yes."
The emperor smiled with emotion, his expression was a little more relaxed, and he said slowly: "I always remember that you have personally instructed that the day when the dragon's breath is completed is the time when the death calamity is over... I can finally rest assured..."
His words sounded like an ordinary sigh at first glance, but after careful consideration, he could inexplicably taste a bit of desolation, even a bit like a dying person but wished so without regret, which angered old man Wen His expression changed slightly, he stroked his beard subconsciously, frowned, and took a deep look at the emperor.
"Although the nine princesses are talented and have won the hearts of the people, the rest of the catastrophe has not yet been completed, and the road ahead is still extremely dangerous...Your Majesty, let me listen to the old man's advice: You should really take care of the dragon body, and don't let her alone Facing the bloody storm on the road to the throne alone."
"Yes, thank you, Daoist, for your reminder."
The emperor stretched out his hand, rubbed his aching forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Even if it's just for the dragon scales, I will definitely work harder and try to live longer."
Lin Xun's voice was neither loud nor soft, so that everyone around could hear him clearly.Yu Ying and Third Sister were the closest to Ming Tan, and they were not in a daze for a while, but they all turned to look at the latter in unison, with a dazed expression on their faces.
To be called His Highness by the Commander of the Forbidden Army... What is the origin of this young woman who just showed them great kindness?
On the other side, under the focus of everyone's eyes, Ming Tan's face was almost green.She slashed at Lin Xun fiercely with her eyes, as if she wanted to slice a peony flower knife on him. Just about to start the training, Lin Shurong grabbed her sleeve by the side and said in a low voice, "It's not suitable to stay here for long, Your Highness, we Or hurry—"
Before she could finish her words, a scholar standing next to Yu Ying had already reacted, stretched out his hand in surprise, and quickly turned to his friend, "Ninth Princess! It's really Ninth Princess! Brother Qin, didn't you also read it before?" Arrived? The last time that Sun Wenliang from Jinfeng Bookstore went to Shun'an Study to make trouble, and when the Imperial Army arrested him, the Ninth Princess was among them!"
"Yes, the veil was blown away at that time, and many people saw the true face of Her Highness the Princess, who is a very beautiful young woman!"
"What? It's really His Royal Highness Ninth Princess?"
"The old man's son transferred the Imperial Army precisely because of Princess Nine. He was taught so heroically, so he voted for the martial arts exam and passed the exam! The princess is really the lucky star of my people!"
"Wait, my lord, all the girls in the arena are so pretty, which one is the Ninth Princess?"
"Oh, I don't even need to ask? The ninth princess just reached the age of Ji this year, so it must be the younger girl—this girl Ying'er, your ancestor must have been very kind, and she was rescued by the ninth princess herself. But what a blessing!"
Yu Ying grew up in Louzhou, and she came to Beijing with her brother and sister not long ago, so she has no idea about the good reputation of the Ninth Princess.When some people were confused about the situation, they saw that the person who had just talked to her was taken aback for a moment, looking around and asking, "Huh? Where's the princess? Where did the princess go?"
"Strange, why did people disappear in the blink of an eye?"
A few imperial guards quickly escorted the troublemakers and thugs, but no one cared to applaud them. All the people were busy looking for the figure of the nine princesses. The news spread to the crowd in an instant, and there were immediately The outermost people shouted loudly: "Princess! The princess is here!"
"Your Highness Nine, Your Highness Ninth! Thanks to you for recommending the imperial envoy to help Yuanzhou in disaster relief, otherwise my old father who is far away from home would definitely not be able to survive. I would like to thank you face to face even in my dreams!"
"The forbidden army patrols the city every day to keep my house safe, thank you Your Highness Ninth Princess!"
"Hey, Mrs. Li, what's the matter? Why are all the big guys looking for the princess?"
"Oh, you are so stupid! The ninth princess once found Xiangrui in the Dongfeng paddock, and she must be a person protected by the gods! If you don't go, don't get in the way.

"The nobles of the Tian family subdued the people, and the last time it was recorded in the previous court: it was Princess Xuanji who saw injustice, and she simply showed her identity to uphold justice for the children who were wronged and stolen. After the incident, she was admired by thousands of people. How similar is the situation of eradicating the evil and helping the weak!"
"Our Princess Yonghui has made great achievements, not much more than the former Princess Xuanji? This is the kind person who should be admired by all people!"
"What are you still doing? Hurry up, I want to see the princess' true face!"
……
The news spread quickly, and there were already many people watching the juggling of the Yuying brothers and sisters. Some of them indirectly received the favor of the Ninth Princess, some believed in the auspicious words, and some simply wanted to join in the fun. , showing that he is also the lucky one who has seen the royal family and nobles with his own eyes-in a short while, the lineup has expanded to a small half of Fangji Street.
Ming Tan wished to step on two hot wheels on the soles of his feet, and ran very fast, while running, he hurriedly turned his head, glanced at the people who were coming straight towards him, and almost fell down on the spot with his eyes darkened.
Why are there so many people!
She endured it for a long time but couldn't hold back, suddenly raised two fingers, slammed Lin Xun on the head, and cursed in a bad tone: "Look at what you did!"
Lin Xun got into a catastrophe and didn't dare to refute even half a word. His usual prestige became pitiful, and he cried while running, "I didn't expect this to happen..."
"Today is the third day of junior high school. It's rare to be free. I still want to go shopping with your sister. It's all ruined now!"
"Oh, I was wrong, I was wrong, it's all because I can't speak, sister..."
"Okay," Lin Shurong frowned, glared at his younger brother angrily and helplessly, stretched out his hand to protect Ming Tan in front of him, and briefly explained, "Ah Lun, you should go immediately and take the imperial guards who are patrolling the city elsewhere and the Shuntian Mansion. Bring from the government office, control the scene, maintain the order of the people, and avoid accidents due to the crowd; Your Highness, let's go back to the teahouse now, and we must not be accidentally injured by the crowd!"
Ming Tan supported his waist and took a breath, then nodded in agreement.
——At this point, it is impossible to talk about evacuation, so we have to make mistakes and have a temporary fan meeting.
And after listening to Lin Shurong's concise instructions, Lin Xun also turned around and left in a hurry, leaving Mingtan and Lin Shurong to look at each other, hammering his forehead with a headache, and rushing towards the teahouse right in front of him with the wind blowing under his feet. go.
Terrible!
The next time she meets Lin Xun when she leaves the palace, she must hide away and never say a word to him!
The sweat on Mingtan's face and the tears in his heart were like rain. As soon as he ran into the teahouse, he rushed to the second floor in a familiar way, startling Xiaoer who came to greet him, and was about to stop him, but Lin Shurong, who was following closely, stopped his movements and ordered in a low voice: "Send someone to guard the stairs in the teahouse quickly, and no one is allowed to go up!"
"This, this, girl..."
"Do as I say first, and then ask your Shopkeeper Zou later!"
Lin Shurong didn't want to talk nonsense, and directly took out a whole ingot of silver from her purse, stuffed it into the opponent's hand, turned around and ran up to the second floor in a hurry.
Xiaoer was left alone standing in the same place, pinching the money at a loss, thinking for a long time, and finally took the short hand, shook his head, turned around and followed Lin Shurong's instructions.
However, he just asked a few brothers to stand in front of the stairs, and before he had time to return to the counter, a large group of people suddenly poured in outside the door, saying something loudly, "His Royal Highness just entered this teahouse" , the trouble made Xiao Er very confused, hurried forward, crossed his hands and smiled: "Guest officer, what's the matter? What's the matter?"
"I don't know what Xiaoer is. Just now, Her Royal Highness Princess Yonghui appeared on the street and just happened to enter your teahouse after saving a girl who was almost robbed from a brothel." The answer was a young man dressed as a scholar. He was personable and rationally explained to Xiaoer, "We are all people who have received the favor of the princess. We are grateful and intend to see her with our own eyes. That's why we ventured into the teahouse and hope that the shopkeeper will be happy..."
As soon as the words fell, there were many responses from behind: "Yes, His Highness the Ninth Prince has shown great kindness to the people of the capital——I happened to meet Princess Weifu today, and I want to thank her personally!"
"This……"
Xiao Er scratched his head, hesitated for a moment, and persuaded truthfully: "Guest officers, Your Royal Highness is a man of gold, jade leaves, and gold, how can it be easily seen by ordinary people like us? No matter who you are, you have so many hands. Miscellaneous, what if I accidentally hurt the princess? ——His Royal Highness is kind-hearted and considerate of all people. Everyone’s gratitude must have been remembered in his heart... You should leave as soon as possible, don’t make it difficult for the small shop, or Don't make it difficult for His Royal Highness the Ninth Princess..."
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but looked at each other, and lowered their heads in shame.
After all, the people at the foot of the imperial city are quite qualified. Although they tried their best to see Mingtan, they were only dazzled by the excitement for a while. I can't stop feeling a little scared.
If it was true what the other party said, they accidentally hurt the Ninth Princess just now——then even if they had ten lives, they still wouldn't be able to pay for it!
The few people in the front row looked at each other, then looked at the large army huddled behind them, and couldn't help smiling bitterly: "Xiaoer is very right... But even if I want to go out now, I have no way out." Back off."
Xiao Er also looked at this scene worriedly, and when he was thinking of a solution, he suddenly heard a few unclear shouts from behind.After a while, the crowd at the door slowly dispersed, and two commanders of the imperial army in light armor stepped forward and looked around the teahouse. Among them, the younger one said first: "Master Geng, wait for me to go up and ask for instructions." some time?"
The older one nodded and sighed, "So many people have already gathered, it's impossible to persuade them to disperse, so this is the only way..."
So, everyone watched the young commander whisper to Xiao Er, and then went upstairs; while the elder also turned around with a serious face, calling for the imperial guards to file in, and began to clear the scene in the teahouse.
……
Lin Xun, led by shopkeeper Zou, came down to the private room, and when he knocked on the door, he saw Ming Tan leaning against the window, carefully poking out one eye to look down, and said with satisfaction, "Geng Jing is still reliable!"
In such a short while, the forbidden army and the Shuntian government officials opened a human wall outside the door, blocking the common people from the teahouse.
Ming Tan glanced down from a high place, and Wu Yaya was full of people, and there were many curious people who were attracted by this scene, and they kept joining the crowd to watch the fun.
Although it was still a mess, it was much more orderly than before, and there was no risk of a stampede. Finally, Ming Tan breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned her head and glared at Lin Xun again, "Can you learn more from Commander Geng!"
"..." Lin Xun wept with a mournful face, not daring to answer a word, and seemed to be about to kneel down to her.
On the contrary, Lin Shurong was merciful once, and did not put any pressure on his younger brother, but only explained to him in detail: "Your Highness can't hide the matter in the teahouse, and it is impossible to let them go away...so wait After a while, His Highness will speak to the people from the window, you and Commander Geng must pay more attention to security, firstly, don’t let the crowd stir up trouble, and secondly, take strict precautions against people with evil intentions, do you understand?”
"Yes." Lin Xun nodded, "The teahouse has been cleared, and I have sent people to guard it. It's just this matter... the scene is a bit big, do you want to send people to report to the palace immediately?"
"Don't worry, the palace should already know the news," Ming Tan lazily propped his chin beside him, and sighed a thousand times, "Fortunately, it's the Chinese New Year, and the court is closed according to the law, so I can still suffer from those imperial guards a few days later." Shi's scolding..."
The culprit, the younger brother of the Lin family, was silent.
"Oh, by the way, there's something else - you have to remember to tell Shuntian Mansion to make a judgment on the building where the women were robbed before."
Ming Tan tapped the corner of the table slowly with his fingertips, and reminded: "Openly despise the king's law, try to falsify the contract of sale, and force the woman into low status. Status...everything is a serious crime, and it is obviously not the first one. Acting like this this time also involves whether there is a secret corruption in the Louzhou government, and the implications are serious. You should quickly send someone to investigate in the name of the capital government, and seal up that brothel for me by the way!" She sneered, "Otherwise, They really treat the law as a vegetarian!"
——This is also the fundamental reason why Ming Tan insisted on meddling in this business.
Liu Binke, a famous poet, once said in an article in "On Heaven": Man can surpass the sky, and the law is also.
Only when the court of a country has strict laws, impartial judgments, and awe of the law can it guarantee social stability to the greatest extent.
Therefore, facing such an example of blatantly ignoring the law, Ming Tan chose to help Yu Ying without hesitation.The first is to protect the weak and uphold justice, and the second is to demonstrate the importance of the law inherited from heaven, so that the people understand that justice is not empty, it will protect every good person, and it will also make every villain suffer from them. deserved punishment.
Furthermore, if she and Lin Shurong hadn't taken the lead today to arouse the jealousy of the common people to help each other, then Yu Ying's fate just now... would be really hard to say.
So now, even if he was recognized and caused such a big trouble, Ming Tan never regretted his actions at that time.
——Hey, isn't it just being scolded by the censor a few more times?
Anyway, it's not like she hasn't been scolded before... It doesn't itch when there are too many lice, and it doesn't worry if there are too many debts.
Ming Tan thought about it, watched Lin Xun leave the private room, then tilted his head, looked at Lin Shurong with tears in his eyes, and sincerely asked for help: "Qingqing—to the people below, what should I say? What's good-"
"Aren't you pretty good at talking normally? Just play as usual."
Lin Shurong folded his sleeves and gave her a sideways glance, but he didn't intend to help at all.
It's not that she is cruel... It's that His Highness will have to face this kind of scene of having fun with the people many times in the future. She must have the experience of acting on the spot and organizing words.
Ming Tan also understands this truth.
So, seeing that Lin Shurong made up her mind to stand by and watch, she had no choice but to squash her lips, and leaned back to the window, looked at the people lined up following the order and rules for a while, and then looked at the bustling streets lined with shops, feeling in her heart Can't help but feel a lot of emotion.
Fangji Street can have the bustling appearance it is today, of course it is her handwriting.
Thinking about it now, after a hundred years, many of the changes that have taken place on this street will be included in the history textbooks of junior and senior high schools, and students will be asked to "analyze the reasons why the forbidden army patrols the city from a political and economic perspective", "Tian Cheng The era background of the lifting of the curfew", "Briefly describe the significance of the prosperity of Fangji Street" and other test questions to answer——
Persecution of candidates, just think about it!
Ming Tan's mind is filled with the vicious ideas of educators, and when he thinks of the hairs that will fall out of the students in the future, he can't help but cover his lips and smile, feeling that his future is bright.
Still have to work harder to add to the thickness of their history textbooks, test papers and reference books!
"..."
Lin Shurong sat at the side, looking at her shaking shoulders because she was holding back her laughter, with a strange and worried expression on her face.
Your Highness looks like this...you won't say anything you shouldn't say, right?
——Facts have proved that although Ming Tan always looks like a fool, he is still very reliable in major matters.
When the order downstairs finally stabilized, and Lin Xun waved upwards to give a signal, Ming Tan took a deep breath, opened the window wide, leaned half of his body out, and waved at the people downstairs. Waving his hand, the bright smile on his face was clearly visible.
The two-story building is not considered high, and some people have long looked up at it.At this moment, when the Ninth Princess finally appeared, it was as if flames had fallen into the pile of bamboo tubes underneath, and there was a burst of loud cheers.
"Your Highness Ninth! It's really Your Highness Ninth!"
"Princess Yonghui Wan'an! The princess is a thousand years old!"
"I didn't expect that I, a mere mortal, would have the honor to see the princess's face! This is really a big event that smokes from the ancestral grave!"
"His Royal Highness, thank you for changing the training method of the imperial army before, so that my son will not suffer from pain and illness in the camp, and the women will always be gracious—"
"Just now I heard from them that the Ninth Princess saved a little girl who was almost snatched into a brothel with her own hands... Sigh, if this happened a few years ago when the Ninth Princess had the worst reputation, then I would I definitely won't believe it..."
"It's different now. The Ninth Princess can hunt auspicious signs from the paddock. Doesn't it mean that she is a person deeply favored by the gods? It's a great fortune for me to have such a lucky star!"
People talked a lot, and gradually became noisy. Ming Tan didn't actually hear clearly how they thanked him, but he could guess one or two from their expressions, and a warmth that couldn't be ignored filled his heart involuntarily.
A strong country must not only have strength, but also have the trust and admiration of the people.
After she came to this era, everything she did was to help these simple and sincere people live a better life, and it was all to make them change their views on the court and themselves... …
So, has she fulfilled her duties as a princess well?
Could it be... that her soul, who has occupied the magpie's nest, can finally give the original owner of this body a perfect enough explanation?
"..."
Ming Tan gently closed his eyes, and suddenly raised his voice: "Everyone!"
After hearing Princess Nine's words, the people downstairs immediately fell silent, and all looked up at her. There was not much fear of the royal family in their eyes, but there was obvious respect and kindness in their eyes.
Because in the past few years, everything Ming Tan did was closely related to them.Everyone knows that the Ninth Princess has a heart for all people and a benevolent disposition, so why would she be afraid of her?
Those who truly win the hearts of the people do not stand high on the altar and receive incense and worship; they should stand beside the people, be respected and loved by them from the bottom of their hearts, and become an existence that they can rely on with confidence.
"—Everyone! As a child of the Tiancheng royal family, Ming Tan is supported by all people. It is only natural to do things for the court and the people. I dare not be grateful to you!"
On the tall teahouse, the young girl spoke solemnly, with a serious expression, and firmly shouted to the people: "If a country wants to prosper, military affairs must not be left behind. That's why I strongly recommend a strong forbidden army and carry forward military exercises." ; In addition, there is an old saying, "When the year is hungry, send out the millet of the farmers, and raise the people to make a profit." Therefore, the imperial court must do its best to cure the drought and relieve the disaster, and it is even more obligatory to save the crisis in Yuanzhou; During the grand ceremony, the auspicious appearance of the white fox in the Dongfeng paddock is a sign of the prosperity of the country, the peace of the people, and the benefits of the monarch, so what does it have to do with me?" She paused, lowered her eyes, and shook her head heavily, "So, today, everyone Ming Tan feels ashamed of his gratitude, and cannot bear to accept it..."
After these words, the originally noisy street was almost so quiet that a needle could be heard. Everyone's expressions were complicated and different, but their eyes were surprisingly the same, full of admiration for what she said.
Even though she has made so many great achievements, Princess Yonghui still does not claim credit or pride, and her words are modest, so that everyone present can hear the sincerity in her tone.
Throughout the past and present, it is indeed a great fortune for the people of Tiancheng to have such a royal daughter who cares about the people!
Bathed in people's admiring gazes, Ming Tan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, sighed deeply, but soon smiled again, and suddenly waved his hand and said: "However, if everyone still feels grateful, there is nothing to express. If so, why not join me in praying to God—to wish me heaven and earth, and eternal peace!"
The last sentence was so loud that people couldn't help but feel excited. Even if it attracted many people to repeat it slowly until it was uniform, the sound was as loud and trembling as a mountain roaring and a tsunami——
"Wish me heavenly inheritance, and eternal peace!"
……
At the same time, in the palace.
The Tianhong Hall was quite different from usual today, unexpectedly there was a rare visitor.He has gray hair, is wearing a short shirt, and his face is wrinkled and smiling. He looks plain and simple from head to toe, as if he is no different from those old people in the streets and alleys.
Such an ordinary little old man who is even inconspicuous, obviously has nothing to do with the luxurious Tianhong Palace, but he is actually calm, with his waist straight, sitting upright in the most noble palace in Tiancheng. Opposite the Ninth Five-Year Lord, as if an old friend who has been reunited for many years, he had a hand-to-hand talk with him.
Gently picked up a white piece, and put it on the chessboard at will. While listening carefully to Sheng An's report of the news from Fangji Street, the old man raised his head, stroked his beard slowly, and said to the emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty can now Do you know that what the old man said back then is true?... These nine princesses are destined to be extraordinary, and they are destined to do great things and bear great responsibilities!"
——If Ming Tan and Lin Shurong were present at this time, they would immediately recognize that this person was the very weird shop owner they met when they were buying river lamps in Fangji Street many years ago, old man Wen!
"...The Master of the Pochen Temple, Shangshui Daoist, has a miraculous Taoism. You Shan, divination and divination, when did I not believe it?"
With a faint smile on the emperor's lips, he slowly stepped the black chess into the game, recalling the past and said: "Since the time when the dragon scale was born, you deliberately entered the palace for divination, and asserted that she was carrying half of the real dragon's aura, In the future, there must be a female emperor's life... that is, since then, I have been cultivating her as the crown prince, and I have devoted myself to it, and I have finally waited for the grand occasion of the return of all people."
"Hey, the old man violated the way of heaven in the past, and leaked the heavenly secrets of Ziwei, the lord of the Ninth Prince, without authorization. How can he still deserve the Taoist title of 'Shangshui'?" Old man Wen waved his hand, just like back then Facing what Rong Tan and the others said, he stubbornly corrected, "Your Majesty just call me Old Man Wen."
Although the other party's tone was extremely free and easy at this time, the emperor still couldn't help but sighed, and said sincerely: "After so many years, I haven't asked Longlin to come in person to thank Dao Dao for righteousness. I am willing to sacrifice Dao Dao for my future national destiny." ..."
"Your Majesty is serious. The emperor's fate was calculated by the nine princesses, which is a symbol of the old man's perfection. How can he say sacrifice?" Old man Wen waved his hand, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Besides, A few years ago, I met the Ninth Princess on purpose. At that time, her half dragon's breath had been fully completed, and the fate of Ziwei gathered at the top and the real dragon was alive-so, Your Majesty has hidden such a secret. Years of knots can finally be resolved, right?"
"Yes."
The emperor smiled with emotion, his expression was a little more relaxed, and he said slowly: "I always remember that you have personally instructed that the day when the dragon's breath is completed is the time when the death calamity is over... I can finally rest assured..."
His words sounded like an ordinary sigh at first glance, but after careful consideration, he could inexplicably taste a bit of desolation, even a bit like a dying person but wished so without regret, which angered old man Wen His expression changed slightly, he stroked his beard subconsciously, frowned, and took a deep look at the emperor.
"Although the nine princesses are talented and have won the hearts of the people, the rest of the catastrophe has not yet been completed, and the road ahead is still extremely dangerous...Your Majesty, let me listen to the old man's advice: You should really take care of the dragon body, and don't let her alone Facing the bloody storm on the road to the throne alone."
"Yes, thank you, Daoist, for your reminder."
The emperor stretched out his hand, rubbed his aching forehead, and said with a wry smile: "Even if it's just for the dragon scales, I will definitely work harder and try to live longer."
