Consort, she is reborn

In the end, Mingda only took Zhao Gongcao into custody temporarily. It wasn't that she really felt guilty, so that she couldn't kill this "Queen of Loyalty".But there are still too many things to interrogate him in detail, but the news of Han Duwei's capture of Maozhou City has already come, and they are about to enter the city, so there is no time to spend here.

Tang Zhao was hiding a secret in his heart, and he didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or what to do when he saw this, and his mood was a little complicated for a while.

After Zhao Gongcao was taken into custody, Ming Da and Tang Zhao didn't stay in the barracks for too long. They didn't wait for the army to pull out the camp and enter the city, so they rushed to Maozhou City with the Forbidden Army and the people from Lianjiazhai.

Captain Han stood at the city gate to welcome Ming Da and the others. His armor was torn in two places, his clothes were stained with blood, but his eyes were shining brightly.Seeing Ming Da coming, he hurriedly gave a military salute, and said: "I pay my respects to Your Highness, the general will not be disgraced."

Mingda's mood is actually not good, because she has already seen the panic in the city from the open gate.However, it was not the time for her to be cold-faced at this time, so she stepped forward to help Captain Han up, and praised: "The general is brave. reward."

Han Duwei immediately became happy when he heard the words, thinking that no one would be unhappy if he got promoted and made a fortune in the future.He briefly talked to Ming Da about the battle last night, then he turned around and raised his hand behind him and said, "All the rebels in the city have been executed, Your Highness, please enter the city at the end."

Mingda glanced at the city gate, and naturally did not refuse, and led everyone behind him into the city gate that had just experienced the flames of war.

Maozhou City was originally a big city in the southwest, not to mention the splendor and prosperity of the city, at least it is peaceful and happy.However, after earthquakes and natural disasters, rebellion, man-made | disasters, and the baptism of war, today's Maozhou still has the slightest elegance - when Tang Zhao, Mingda and others entered the city, they saw only broken walls and ruins scattered everywhere. Dead bodies, and emaciated victims of panic.

Smelling the bloody smell in the air, this time Mingda was not as hypocritical as he was in the barracks before.She frowned and pursed her lips. Walking in Maozhou city, she felt depressed. Suddenly, she felt so ridiculous that she felt guilty in the face of Zhao Gongcao's questioning.

Captain Han could also feel the oppression of the atmosphere, and the joy that had been born from his achievements in battle was immediately suppressed by him.Following Mingda, he said, "Your Highness, the last general has sent people to check the granaries. In fact, the city ran out of food three days ago. At the beginning of the rebellion, the rebels seized the granary and distributed food to the victims. Later, the siege of the city became less and less common. They threatened the victims with swords and hung a morsel of food so that the victims did not dare to resist. As time passed, countless people in Maozhou starved to death, and now there are almost none left... "

Mingda listened to him talk about the situation in the city, the more he listened to it, his expression became more and more serious, and finally he almost gritted his teeth.However, it was too late to say anything now. Seeing the emaciated appearance of the victims, she turned around and asked Captain Han, "How much food is there in the army now?"

Captain Han guessed what she was going to do, and replied after hearing the words: "Return to Your Highness, there is still one hundred thousand shi of food, enough for the army for a month."

Mingda really ordered: "Then give half of it to the disaster relief first. The emperor's brother allows me to do something cheap on this trip, and I will order the nearby state capitals to mobilize food for disaster relief. The food will also be supplied to the army later. .”

Han Duwei didn't dare to say anything, but he acted simply, he turned around and ordered his men to do it.

Mingda didn't say anything after that, he just led people to walk around Maozhou City, and finally went to the state government office which was still intact.At noon, a series of government orders were stamped with the seal of the eldest princess, and quickly passed on to the Quartet through the messengers.

Governing a place is far more difficult than capturing a place, especially when this place has experienced natural disasters and wars, and when it is returned to the imperial court, it is almost riddled with holes.

Mingda led a group of subordinate officials and quickly fell into a busy situation.

Taking advantage of Mingda's inattention, Tang Zhao went to see Zhao Gongcao once.Although the latter was captured, he also looked swearingly chaste that day, but he didn't have the intention to die when things came to an end. Instead, he ate and slept well to support himself after being taken into custody.

Zhao Gongcao was scolded by Tang Zhao that day, and when he saw her again, his complexion was not very good, and his mouth was full of sarcasm: "Tang Changshi, aren't you the celebrity in front of His Highness? Why don't you obediently follow her and bite her?" People, are you free to come and see me, a prisoner?"

Tang Zhao was unmoved by his ridicule. She stood outside the prison with her hands behind her back and said, "Are you really the queen of the Zhou family?"

Zhao Gongcao's face immediately changed when he heard this, and he said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, I am naturally the descendant of the Zhou family!"

Tang Zhao shook his head with an expression of disbelief, and said, "Everyone knows that Zhou Laocheng was the first to sin against the late emperor, and was beheaded by the whole family. From the eighty-year-old woman to the infant, he never let a single one go...you Where did the blood come from?!"

Zhao Gongcao stopped talking, and looked at Tang Zhao with dark eyes, as if he wanted to go forward and bite her twice.

Tang Zhao is actually not

Concerned about Zhao Gongcao's life experience, whether he is a descendant of the Zhou family or not, it has nothing to do with her.It was only after Zhao Gongcao's mood was disturbed by such words that she was able to ask the next question.

Tang Zhao waved his hand casually, and Tang Zhao looked indifferent again: "Forget it, let's just treat you as the blood of the Zhou family. Then why did you get involved in these things? Is it for revenge? I still think the blood of the Zhou family is redundant. Running to die?!"

Zhao Gongcao finally laughed angrily at her words: "Don't worry about Tang Changshi, even if I die, my Zhou family's blood will not be cut off."

Tang Zhao didn't bother with this topic, and talked a lot with Zhao Gongcao.The latter wanted to ignore her, but Tang Zhao couldn't say a few words, and he could always poke his lungs, but he was so angry that he wanted to bite her twice, and if he couldn't bite, he would swear a few more words.Then he talked more and more, and unknowingly revealed a lot of news.

Zhao Gongcao was finally poked again, and couldn't help saying angrily: "You ignorant child, now you are helping the evil, and sooner or later you will regret it. Wait for the day, my lord..." At this point, he finally realized how much he had done. Yan, quickly stopped.

However, it was too late, because Tang Zhao had already heard what she wanted from his words, she raised her eyebrows: "Why, you gangsters and thieves still have a master? It is rumored that Emperor Yanping did not die in a military disaster. , could it be true?"

Zhao Gongcao's eyes flickered twice, and then he scolded: "Bah, who are the traitors? You are the traitors!"

All right, at this point, Tang Zhao can be sure that even if the Tang family really has something to do with these traitors, even if he is really a young master, at least the person in front of him doesn't know about it, so there is no need to worry about him exposing himself.

Tang Zhao looked at Zhao Gongcao and was speechless for a while. This is not a person who is good at disguising, but with his unbearable temper, I really don't know how he has been hiding under Mingda's nose for two years.But fortunately, it made her easily ask what she wanted to know, and even after knowing this, her heart seemed to be a little heavier...

After leaving the place where Zhao Gongcao was imprisoned, Tang Zhao returned to Mingda's side, and put away all his worries for the time being.

Mingda was tired from busy work for a long time, and when Tang Zhao came back, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Brother A Ting, where did you go just now?"

Tang Zhao walked over and said casually, "I'll go out for a walk." After thinking about it, he was afraid that Mingda would know that he had gone to see Zhao Gongcao from other places, and he would become suspicious again, so he added, "I went to see Zhao Gongcao by the way." Cao once."

Mingda frowned when he heard the name, but didn't say anything.Just seeing Tang Zhao approaching, he subconsciously clung to her, wanting to act coquettishly.However, Tang Zhao, who usually let her act coquettishly and sticky, suddenly dodged slightly this time for some reason, causing the unprepared Mingda to sway and nearly fall.In the end, it was Tang Zhao who pulled her back again, so she didn't fall and get injured.

Even so, Mingda was also taken aback, and hastened to press the beating heart of "Putong", and asked puzzledly: "Brother A Ting, what's wrong with you, why are you avoiding me all of a sudden?!"

Tang Zhao helped her to sit up, and lowered his eyes slightly: "It's nothing, I lost my mind just now..."

Mingda frowned even more when she heard the words, she raised her hand to support Tang Zhao's chin, and made her look up at herself: "No, you never avoided me when you were absent-minded before, and you will only look away when you are absent-minded. I'm stronger!"

Tang Zhao could not refute this.From the age of eight to the age of eight, Tang Zhao spent ten years pampering the little princess to the core, and being nice to her has become an instinct and a habit.Even now that he has changed his identity and changed his body, this instinct has not changed a little.

Mingda was keenly aware of the abnormality, so he asked again: "So what happened?"

Tang Zhao remained silent, as if he had something to say but didn't want to talk about it.

Mingda looked a little impatient. She was already impatient because of the Maozhou City incident in the past two days, and she became even more impatient when she saw Tang Zhao like this.YouQi Mingda knew that Tang Zhao would not hide anything from her easily, but if she wanted to hide it, she would really not say it.

The little princess was so anxious that she always felt that something was out of her control when she didn't know it, and she was running towards an unknown direction.Immediately, her eyes rolled, and she leaned over and stuck to it again.Tang Zhao didn't dodge this time, but Mingda clearly felt that her body was stiff - so the dodging just now was not an accident at all, so why?

Many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, but in the end he had no clue, so Mingda glared at Tang Zhao angrily: "Are you avoiding me?!"

Tang Zhao turned his head away, not to look at Mingda who was in his arms: "I don't."

How could Mingda believe it, and said aggrievedly: "You just avoid me."

Tang Zhao still wanted to defend himself, but before he could say anything, Mingda held his cheeks with both hands, and then he couldn't help but turn back to block all his words—the softness on his lips reminded Tang Zhao that Mingda had once again violated the rules.

The soft touch, the familiar smell, the pounding heartbeat...everything is inexplicably intoxicating.

However, it was only for a moment that Tang Zhao woke up, and then an inexplicable panic arose in her heart.

She suddenly pushed Mingda away, turned around and ran away.
