The Grand Princess

After Li Rong took Sun Wen's paper and sent the person away, Cui Yulang immediately contacted Concubine Rou, and Concubine Rou met Cui Yulang in the name of King Su, and Cui Yulang informed Concubine Rou about Sun Wen.

"This Sun Wen is a fellow of the Weichen. He was robbed of the place by the local squire to come to Huajing to participate in Chunwei. He went to Huajing to find the Weichen, and the Weichen asked him to file a complaint with His Highness Pingle. As expected by the Weichen, His Highness Pingle received the paper early in the morning and sent the person out of Huajing. Now the ship that sent him out of Huajing is no longer found."

Hearing Cui Yulang's words, Rou Fei immediately sat up straight, and said: "You are really serious?"

"really."

As Cui Yulang said, he took out a copy of the certificate: "This copy of the certificate was left by Sun Wen to the minister. The empress may find an opportunity tomorrow to call His Royal Highness Pingle into the palace and show her this certificate first. , We will find someone to play this matter later."

"Why should I tell her about this in the first place?" Rou Fei frowned. "Since she dared to directly kill the accuser, I told her directly, isn't it better?"

"The empress told your majesty directly about this matter, and your majesty reprimanded Her Majesty Pingle at most, and guessed that the empress had ulterior motives. The empress had already passed Hongde's case, and it is best not to participate in this matter anymore." Cui Yulang knelt on the ground and analyzed it smoothly. But if Niangniang let Her Highness Pingle know that you already knew about her murder, she would be scared. Tomorrow Chaotang will play her and she is afraid that she will find out Sun Wen’s death, so she will resign from the Superintendent before everything happens. The position of the director, so as not to be held accountable."

"Is she so courageous?"

Concubine Rou frowned: "Pingle is a little fox. I'm afraid your trick won't work."

Cui Yulang picked up the teacup and smiled softly: "I know the empress, why did His Highness Pingle kill Sun Wen?"

"Appreciate further details."

"His Royal Highness Pingle is always the elder sister of His Royal Highness. She can't live with the family anymore. That's also a member of the family. So she can investigate a Qin case or a military payment case, but she can't touch the foundation of the family. There is too much involvement. She is already at the mouth of the storm, and naturally she dare not take it anymore. Not only is she afraid to take the case, but she also needs to be maintained. The family is unstable and the prince is unstable, so she must kill Sun Wen."

Cui Yulang spoke and took a sip of tea. Fei Rou thought: "You expected that she would kill Sun Wen long before you sent Sun Wen over?"

"I said I want to send Supervisor Chasi to Niang Niang," Cui Yulang raised his eyebrows.

Concubine Rou was stunned, Cui Yulang put the tea cup down, held the fan again, and slowly said: "We lure her to kill Sun Wen, and we have already caught her. If we force her to take the imperial examination case, she doesn't want to take it. The imperial examination case again has the handle in our hands. That is the safest way for her to leave the inspectorate department. She is gone, someone in the inspectorate department must be in control, who wants to investigate the imperial court case," Cui Yulang looked at Rou Fei. Who is the new master of the inspection department."

"But," Rou Fei hesitated, "cases that Li Rong dare not investigate, I will investigate..."

"His Royal Highness Pingle didn't dare, but didn't want to. The aristocratic family is the prince's backing," Cui Yulang leaned slightly, "Can the aristocratic family be your backing?"

Concubine Rou froze, Cui Yulang's words penetrated her heart like a poisonous snake, and entrenched in her heart: "Manny, you are born here, even if there is a family respecting you to assist you, it is completely just treating you as a chess piece. Gaming. The aristocratic family will never be your support. Your Majesty Heping is different."

"To this day, you are not relying on the family to maintain, on the contrary, you rely on your weakening of the family. What your majesty values ​​is your poor status, which is the foundation of His Royal Highness. The more cruel you are to the family, Your Majesty His love for you will be deeper. His Majesty Pingle had to set up an inspection department because of the case of the Cha Family. If you want your Majesty’s love, you can only do more ruthlessly than His Highness Pingle."

Concubine Rou did not speak. She digested Cui Yulang's words. Cui Yulang leaned on the armrest and looked at Concubine Rou's expression. He slowly said, "I know that the empress is connected with some aristocratic children. If the empress doesn't believe me, you might as well think about it. So far, have those people from the family bring any benefits to the empress?"

Fei Rou was shocked when she heard this.

She suddenly reacted, yes, although the Su family is strong, she has never benefited since cooperating with Su Rongqing.

Not only didn't get the benefits, but also got a lot of disgust from the emperor, and even something happened. In order to protect themselves, Su Ronghua turned around and confessed her, using her as a shield to win Li Ming's forgiveness.

She was originally the dark master in the sixth house, but now she has been all the way down to the concubine position. She is still suspected by Li Ming. Is it really better for Li Cheng to cooperate with the family?

Seeing that Concubine Rou's expression was shaken, Cui Yulang continued to analyze: "In fact, your Majesty has already paved the way for your Royal Highness. The position of all the emperors is only the word of war and money. Your Majesty will hand over the military power to the Northwest. For your brother, it is to build military power for King Su, and money is a matter of the court. Now there is your majesty to support the empress. What the empress should do is not to rely on the family, but to protect the majesty. While holding the empress, build the power that you really hold in your hands."

"Hanmen," Cui Yulang bit his words seriously, "This is the final belonging of the empress. But in the aristocratic family, the empress only needs to keep in touch with each other."

"Sir, I understand." After hearing Cui Yulang's analysis, Rou Fei made a decision in her heart, "I will make arrangements tomorrow."

After Cui Yulang got the answer from Concubine Rou, he planned for a while. After Cui Yulang left, Concubine Rou sat in the room, and the maid Chunxi came forward and brought tea to Concubine Rou, and said with some worry: "Manny, about this. Do you want to talk to Master Su?"

"He won't agree."

Concubine Rou said slowly: "Cui Yulang is right. For people like Su Rongqing," Concubine Rou laughed, "I am far more important than the interests of his family. They don't want Li Rong to check, so they want me to check?"

"Go and prepare the post," Roufei ordered, "Pingle, please enter the palace and chat."

The post of Concubine Roux arrived in Li Rong's hands the next day. Li Rong went down to the court and smiled when he saw the post, knowing that Cui Yulang was talking about Concubine Rou.

She didn't refuse, so she responded to the post and went to Roufei Palace.

When Li Rong arrived, Concubine Rou was alone in the palace. She saw Li Rong come in, raised her head, and said with a smile: "Pingle is here?"

She is a good person, even facing Li Rong who is extremely disgusted, but she has a very sincere smile on her face.

Li Rong nodded, and it was regarded as a salute. Concubine Roux greeted her and sat down. Li Rong looked at the tea and pastries prepared on the table and found that she liked to eat them. She couldn't help but feel a little emotional about Concubine Rou's mind.

Rao was fifty years old, and she couldn't do the tolerance that Roufei faced her enemies.

"You haven't entered the palace very much since you got married. I missed you for a long time." Concubine Rou poured tea to Li Rong, as if an elder cared about her, said gently, "After the reunion, I have a good time. it is good?"

"Lao Niangniang is concerned," the palace people are used to hypocrisy, and Li Rong is also used to it, and answered with a smile, "The supervisor is busy with work, and there is no other feeling."

"Although you are busy on official business, you still have to pay attention to your body," Roufei said, pushing the teacup to Li Rong. Li Rong picked up the cup and blew the tea in the teacup. Roufei observed her and said slowly, "Call you over this time. In fact, there is something I want to ask you for help. I have a distant relative who studied hard for ten years, and finally passed the exam last year and became a tribute to the township. I am planning to participate in the Spring Festival this year. Whoever thinks will get the spot. He came all the way to Huajing to file a complaint. I thought about it, and there was no suitable person to help, so I thought of you."

With that said, Concubine Rou took a copy of Sun Wen's paper and handed it to Li Rong, "I asked him to find you before. Did you see him? His name is Sun Wen."

Hearing this name, Li Rong froze.

Concubine Roux looked at Li Rong, tilted her head, as if she didn't know what Li Rong had done before, laughed and said, "Looking at you like this, I must have seen it."

"Unexpectedly." Li Rong seemed to have just recovered, pretending to be calm, "The thing that the empress said should be dealt with by the criminal department. The empress should call him to the criminal department, it is not early," Li Rong stood up. , "Pingle retire first."

"Yes," Rou Fei laughed, "you are also busy, let's go first."

With that said, Concubine Rou called someone to send her off. When they arrived, Li Rong couldn't wait to leave, Concubine Rou slowly called to her: "Pingle."

Li Rong paused, and Concubine Rou turned her teacup in her hand: "If you want people to know, unless you do nothing, what should be yours is yours, and it's not yours, and you can't hold it."

Li Rong turned her head to see Concubine Roux looking at her with a smile: "I can do it myself."

"Thank you, Niang Niang."

Li Rong was cold, and after thanking him, he walked out.

When she went out, Concubine Rou was stroking the tea cup and couldn't help laughing.

It was the first time she saw Li Rong panicked in so many years.

When Li Rong walked out of the palace and got on the carriage, she immediately returned to her usual leisurely appearance, sitting in the carriage drinking tea, and letting Jinglan pinch her shoulders. The panic before was wiped out, and she looked quite relaxed.

"Why is your Highness so happy?"

Jinglan couldn't help asking, Li Rong smiled and said: "I caught a fish."

Li Rong deceived Concubine Rou, and until the evening, she summoned Cui Yulang.

In order to facilitate the entry and exit of Cui Yulang, she deliberately changed the duty time of the guards, so that there was a road that would not be patrolled by the guards, and specially reserved for Cui Yulang.

Cui Yulang skillfully climbed over the wall at night and entered the princess mansion. After discussing with Li Rong on how to cooperate with the court on the second day, he walked out again in the middle of the night.

As soon as he left, Pei Wenxuan's people reported Li Rong's deployment of guards to patrol time to Pei Wenxuan.

Although Pei Wenxuan had left the princess mansion, there were many people he arranged in the princess mansion. It can be said that in the entire Huajing, he had the most information in the princess mansion. This is the third time that Li Rong has deployed guards to patrol. It was still at night, and Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but think.

He immediately asked people to find out the details of the three guard patrol time allocations, and then went to bed, but after falling asleep, he still couldn't sleep.

Thaksin still believes in Li Rong, and Li Rong should not do anything to betray her in their relationship.

But he was worried again. Li Rong was originally a pretty girl, and he was not around. What if she had some thoughts and was coaxed by some bad guys?

When Pei Wenxuan thought of this possibility, he was so worried that he couldn't sleep, and he wished to get up and look for Li Rong now, and felt that he was overthinking.

Li Rong is not a silly girl, why is it so easy to be coaxed?

After tossing around all night, it finally arrived the second day. He arrived at the gate of the palace early. After waiting there, he finally saw Li Rong’s carriage. He hurriedly had his carriage catch up with Li Rong, and went to the gate of the palace at the same time as Li Rong. Then lift the curtains together.

Seeing Pei Wenxuan, Li Rong couldn't help but smiled, "Master Pei, what a coincidence?"

Pei Wenxuan had to pretend to be indifferent in front of others, nodded, and said nothing.

He just felt a little happy after receiving such a greeting.

The two went to court, and Pei Wenxuan used his light to peek at Li Rong standing in the forefront.

Now he has been promoted and is closer to Li Rong.

Li Rong was unaware of Pei Wenxuan's emotions, she tapped her hand with a small fan, waiting for today's performance.

Halfway through the affairs of the court hall, Li Ming asked if there were other things as usual, and a small official from Yushitai suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty," the little official said calmly, "Weichen has something to play."

"Let's talk," Li Ming was bored while drinking tea, the official raised his clothes and knelt down, and said loudly, "Weichen wants to supervise His Royal Highness Si Pingle, but will not report the case and counter threats to send away the complainant!"

Hearing this, Li Ming stopped holding the cup. Li Rong heard this and immediately went out and knelt on the ground and said: "Father, my son is wronged!"

Li Rong's fierce reaction caused Li Ming to frown. Li Ming glanced at the little official, put down the teacup, and said, "How can she not report the case?

Everyone looked at the little official, and the little official couldn't help but tremble, but in Yushitai, the most important thing is courage. So he bit his head and continued: "Chen County examinee Sun Wen, who was originally the leader of Chenxian Qiuwei last year, but was persecuted by the squire, and was misappropriated by the squire, and was unable to participate in Chunwei. He went to Beijing. He came to the imperial court for justice. However, when the pleadings came to the Supervisory Department, His Highness Pingle not only failed to investigate and report the case, but also sent Sun Wen away from Huajing. He is now missing. Such bad behaviors are still hoped. Your Majesty will investigate!"

"Pingle," Li Ming looked at Li Rong, "do you have something to say?"

"Erchen...Erchen..." Li Rong was obviously panicked. She quickly organized her language and finally said: "Erchen was wronged. He said that, what evidence does he have?!"

"Weichen has evidence." The little official said neither humble nor overbearing. "Many people have seen Sun Wen go to the Superintendent to file a complaint."

"He's here to file a complaint," Li Rong said immediately, "I also received his certificate, but he left Beijing on his own before the investigation began. How can you say that I coerced and sent him away?"

"okay."

Li Ming interrupted the two of them: "Wang Yushi doesn't have any evidence for this, Pingle, you will explain it to me later."

"Yes."

Li Rong took a sigh of relief and knelt on the ground to thank Li Ming.

Pei Wenxuan couldn't help frowning as he looked at Li Rong who was kneeling on the ground.

Seeing Li Rong bow his head, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

After waiting for the next morning, Li Rong went to the Imperial Study Room. When Li Ming saw Li Rong coming in, he didn't say anything, so he let her kneel.

Li Rong knelt in the imperial study room for a while before Li Ming said, "Is Sun Wen dead?"

"I don't know." Li Rong knelt on the ground and didn't speak. Li Ming raised his eyes and glanced at her, only said, "I know all of your bends and corners. I don't care if one or two people die. I only ask you. "One thing," Li Ming said coldly, "can you investigate the imperial examination case?"

Li Rong froze. Seeing her hesitating, Li Ming raised her head and stared at her: "I am giving you a supervisor, not to make you play. The case of Sun Wen involves the foundation of Daxia's selection of talents, I You must check it out quickly. But you killed him. Tell me, don't you want to check it?"

"Erchen..." Li Rong said with difficulty, "He didn't kill Sun Wen."

"I asked you about the imperial examination case. Sun Wen's death is not important at all. Do you check or not?"

"Father," Li Rong hesitated, "My son... I dare not investigate."

"Don't dare," Li Ming sneered, "Since you don't dare, what use do I want you to do! Don't be the chief inspector, right?"

Li Rong did not speak, and Li Ming knew that she was determined not to investigate this case.

After Li Ming thought for a moment, he knew Li Rong's plan.

She was afraid that she had already seen his intentions, so at this point, she did not intend to worsen the relationship with the family.

He pays attention to checks and balances, while Li Rong talks about balance in officialdom.

But Li Ming sneered wherever she could tolerate her balance, and only said: "I write my resignation and recommend King Su to be the supervisor of the supervisor."

"Father, but..."

"If you don't write," Li Ming said straight, "Sun Wen's case will not stop here."

Li Rong froze, she seemed to be caught in her weakness and knelt on the spot. After a long time, she said dejectedly: "Yes."

"Go on." Li Ming said coldly, "You just got together recently, so it's time to rest."

"Yes."

Li Rong answered and stood up in despair.

Li Ming ignored her, Li Rong walked out in a daze. As soon as she left the house, she saw Concubine Rou who came in carrying Tang.

Concubine Rou saw Li Rong's appearance, only smiled and nodded with Li Rong, and then walked into the Imperial Study Room.

Li Rong looked at Rou Fei's proud and confident smile, suffocating her smile, and squeezed her fists as if she was trying to restrain her emotions.

At that moment, she felt that her acting skills were simply superb, as if she had reached the peak.

Such a hard performance also pleased Concubine Rou. In the evening, when Li Rong's resignation and King Su's recommendation letter were in the hands of Concubine Rou, Roufei couldn't stop laughing.

Repeatedly praised: "Cui Yulang still has a way, look at him, once he shot, he was a supervisor."

"A talent like Cui Yulang," Rou Fei said with emotion, "It's a pity that I didn't pay attention to it earlier."

Concubine Rou was overjoyed with Hua Le in the palace, while Cui Yulang rushed to the princess mansion to discuss the next step with Li Rong.

When Pei Wenxuan got the news that Li Rong had lost the Supervisory Division, he was discussing the next step with several henchmen. Hearing the news, he was a little restless for a while.

He knew that this was Li Rong's strategy, but he still couldn't help thinking that Li Rong would be sad after all.

The inspector will be lost because Li Ming treats her purely as a pawn, but if Li Ming scruples her for half a point, he will not lose the inspector so quickly, and she will write a letter to push the king up.

He missed Li Rong in his heart. After learning that Li Rong had mobilized the guards in the evening, he finally couldn't help it.

He had already obtained the time for the guards to be mobilized for the past three days. After a little comparison, he found that after the time and place of the guards' patrols diverged, there was actually a way out. This road was equivalent to no guards.

He pondered for a while, and finally changed his clothes, put on a black cloak, and took advantage of the night to drive out of the carriage through the back door.

He cleared the way and made sure that there was no stalking all the way, before sneaking to the princess mansion.

He had a black cloak on the outside, but a moonlight silver-patterned dress on the inside, and his hair was half-pulled with a jade crown, combed neatly. Before he left, he even bathed in incense, and the child industry who watched could not help asking him: "My son, are you going to discuss business matters or go to a tryst?"

Pei Wenxuan was too lazy to pay attention to him, and finally saw Li Rong once, how could he lose face?

Anyway, Li Rong's guard transfer time was only two gaps. The first gap has already passed, so I waited for the second time.

Moreover, he also took a look at the sacred purpose of Li Rong's allocation of this time.

Thinking of this, Pei Wenxuan felt a little cold in his eyes.

When he hurried to the princess's mansion, Cui Yulang and Li Rong had similar discussions. Seeing the time for the second shift of the guards, Cui Yulang respectfully said: "Your Highness, since the negotiation has been completed, the minister will leave first."

Li Rong also felt tired, so he nodded and told Cui Yulang to withdraw.

When Cui Yulang left respectfully, Li Rong got up and asked people to prepare petal bath beans in Yuquan Tang, remove their hair, and walked to the soup pond, intending to take a bath to relieve fatigue.

She came to Tangchi with a yawn, and was served in the hot soup.

She talked a lot with people today, so she didn't want to see people, so she told the maid to step back and wait outside.

When Li Rong closed his eyes and took a bath in Tangchi, Pei Wenxuan also went to the backyard wall of Princess Mansion. He calculated the timetable, and this point just left an unpatrolled area by the wall in the southwest corner of the backyard.

Pei Wenxuan got to the wall and made Tong Ye bend over. He stepped on Tong Ye to climb up.

At this time, after Cui Yulang thanked Zhao Chongjiu, he stepped on Zhao Chongjiu's shoulder and climbed up the wall with difficulty.

So Pei Wenxuan and Cui Yulang climbed up the high wall at the same time. In the moonlight, they both found that a person seemed to have emerged from the other side of the wall, as if a mushroom broke from the ground in the dark night.

Then the two looked at each other for a while, Pei Wenxuan took the initiative and cursed in a low voice: "So it's you!"

At the same time, without hesitation, it was an iron fist and smashed it hard!

When they met on the wall, they fisted hard.
