Hua Rong put down the brush in his hand and sighed. How can he imitate Han Zhongliang? Like Han Zhongliang, he took off his clothes and knelt in front of Zhao Deji, exposing Pengju's numerous scars all over his body, and asked him to be merciful and spare the lives of himself and his wife? Even though he and his wife are willing to grovel, can Zhao Deji agree? Can Qin Hui agree? These two people are bent on causing Pengju's death. Do you want Pengju to accept their humiliation needlessly
She continued to write, carefully considering each word, and Li Yian added: "Sister Seventeen, I must add a sentence to keep the whole family safe." Hua Rong shook his head, there was nothing left for him and his wife to save. Pengju was not here, and she did not need Zhao Deji to spare his life. A trace of blush appeared on her face, like a little girl secretly saying with excitement: "Laity, the tiger's head is in a safe place. I'm not afraid of the dog emperor anymore. It's just me and my husband. We don't need to pray for his life."
Li Yian's heart sank when she saw the blush on her face. She knew that Yue Pengju was doomed, and originally hoped that Hua Rong would be saved, because according to the laws of this dynasty, family members were rarely punished, and the most serious ones were only exiled. This was also the fourth sister of Gao The reason why mother and son can stay in Yiyuan with peace of mind. Seeing Hua Rong like this, Li Yian really couldn't imagine the fate of this couple.
At this time, a male servant came in and lowered his voice: "Mrs. Yue, someone is visiting..."
Hua Rong was shocked. The visitor was a very strange plainclothes boy who handed her a letter: "Mrs. Yue, this is from the princess. Please read it and destroy it immediately..."
Hua Rong asked hurriedly: "How is the princess?"
The boy didn't dare to answer, so he hurriedly said: "This slave has to go back and recover."
Hua Rong couldn't ask anything, so he could only give him some broken silver and send him away.
As soon as the boy left, Hua Rong couldn't wait to open the letter, only to see a few sentences in the letter. It was Tianwei who managed to inform the couple that the first clause in the peace agreement was to kill Yue Pengju; the second clause was She was slandered as a fake princess.
Hua Rong held the letter, her fingers trembling. Li Yian gently took the letter and put it in the stove next to her. After a burning smell, the paper turned to ashes.
As expected, it was Jin Wushu who suggested that Pengju must be killed.
What shocked her even more was that Tianwei was slandered as a fake princess. She was so angry that she filed a lawsuit. How could Tianwei be a fake? I had seen her in the Golden Camp of the Liu Family Temple and at the Fourth Prince's Mansion. She had returned from humiliation and suffering. Even if she admitted her mistake, how could the eunuch and maid who had served her earlier admit her mistake? How could Zhao Deji himself not recognize his closest sister
She stood up and sat down again. She was in a mess and her breathing was rapid. A net had been completely spread out and contracted around her husband and wife. She originally thought that only Pengju's close subordinates and friends would be implicated, but unexpectedly Wanwan... Li Qiaoniang, now coupled with Tianwei, no one can escape.
The net was already around her neck. At this moment, she realized how vicious Zhao Deji was. She had felt guilty about Zhang Xian and others, but for Tianwei, it was Zhao Deji who wanted to kill her.
He could even kill Tianwei, and he didn't even care about his biological sister. Who else could he forgive? She walked around for a few steps, thankful that her husband and wife had never asked him for help. Asking for such an inhumane thing would be tantamount to humiliating oneself.
Li Yian was also very nervous, but he was afraid that she would be impulsive, so he immediately said: "Sister Seventeen, you must not be reckless in this matter."
She took a breath, stood up, and sat down again: "I will not be reckless. I will wait for Pengju to come back before making a decision."
It's almost the twelfth lunar month.
There was an atmosphere of peace talks in the air, and the people were talking about it. They didn't know whether this peace agreement would bring disaster or blessing to the Song Dynasty. On this day, as usual, Yue Pengju and Han Zhongliang arrived at the capital hall on time for work. But for the first time, something unprecedented happened. , Qin Hui hasn’t arrived yet.
The two of them looked at each other and said nothing. They each sat at their desks and drank tea boredly. Han Zhongliang looked at Yue Pengju opposite him carefully and saw that he was wearing a purple silk robe, a jade belt around his waist, and his hair was combed. He has a very fashionable Confucian hairstyle and wears a "Three Changes" headscarf. The "Three Changes" headscarf is taken from Liu Yong's "Liu Three Changes". Liu Yong was a popular icon for many years before, with a suave and elegant style. Now Yue Pengju In this improved "Liu Sanbian" attire, he is taller and taller. In addition to elegance, he also has a bit of heroism and heroism of a military commander. He is even more powerful and handsome.
It was the first time that Han Zhongliang saw Yue Pengju dressed like this. He kept staring at him and sizing him up. After a while, he smiled and said, "Yue Wu, I didn't realize that you are so talented before."
Yue Pengju laughed loudly: "My seventeenth sister dressed it up for me, is it okay?"
"It's not that it's okay, but it's very good. Yue Wu, tsk tsk tsk, you look at it this way, it doesn't look like a martial artist, the number one scholar is not as handsome as you... Hahaha, your seventeenth sister is very good, very good, Who doesn’t envy you? Even I, Old Han, am so envious..."
While the two were chatting and laughing, they heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and soon, Qin Hui came in with a livid face.
The two stopped talking and laughing, and greeted Qin Hui as if nothing had happened. Qin Hui stared at Yue Pengju's attire. He was obviously surprised, and asked darkly: "Lieutenant Yue, is there any news about your wife?"
Yue Pengju made an understatement: "There was a fire at home earlier, and my wife and children were kidnapped by thieves. Fortunately, they have escaped and are safe and sound. What advice does Mr. Qin have?"
Qin Hui sneered: "Congratulations then."
"You are welcome."
Yue Pengju went straight to the point: "Qin Xianggong, may I ask what happened to Zhang Xian, Sun Ge and others? They were framed by others, and everything happened because of the lower officials. If there is anything, the lower officials are willing to bear it... "
Qin Hui smiled evilly and said unhurriedly: "Since Lieutenant Yue has returned to Lin'an, there is no rush on this matter. The case of Zhang Xian and others will naturally be heard by Dali Temple and judged by His Majesty..."
He was very proud of his official tone. Yue Pengju couldn't leave after he came back. Both he and Zhao Deji were more relaxed than ever before. They just waited for the charges to be more complete and closed the net immediately. When he was feeling proud, a subordinate official came in hurriedly and held out his hand. There were several papers in it. Qin Hui's expression changed greatly. He grabbed one in his hand, but failed to catch it. The next one fell to the ground. Han Zhongliang had a sharp eye and quick hands. He grabbed it and saw that he was illiterate, so he handed it to Yue Pengju. Yue Pengju took it. , took a look, and Han Zhongliang said loudly: "Yue Wu, please think about me..."
Qin Hui gave him a sinister look and tore the list into pieces. Han Zhongliang immediately realized that the content above must be detrimental to Qin Hui, and he was even more curious. The list contained detailed records of the scandals and filth of Qin Hui and his wife in the Kingdom of Jin. Okay, it reveals at a glance and in great detail how and where the couple interacted with the fourth prince of the Jin Dynasty, Zong Han, and others. Especially the big words above the head: Qin Hui was carefully crafted by a captive, which is even more shocking.
Yue Pengju smiled and threw the article aside: "Xianggong Han, this is a rumor that slanders Xianggong Qin as a captive, so don't read it."
"Qin Xianggong is a prisoner? How is this possible?" Han Zhongliang pretended to be surprised and repeated three times. Qin Hui looked angry and pressed his head, "I have a headache. I'm asking for leave today to go home and rest."
After he finished speaking, he left in a hurry without looking at their faces.
As soon as he left, Han Zhongliang was overjoyed and immediately asked: "Yue Wu, what exactly did you say?"
Yue Pengju read it roughly for him, and Han Zhongliang said happily: "The person who wrote this article seems to know the details of Qin Hui very well. This guy is vicious and evil-hearted. I have long suspected that he was a spy, but I have no evidence. It's really good. Your Majesty knows, expose his true face..."
After Han Zhongliang knelt down and begged Zhao Deji, he narrowly escaped death. Naturally, he had a little trust in Zhao Deji, always thinking that it was Qin Hui who caused the trouble. Yue Pengju shook his head, knowing that this article was just to embarrass Qin Hui. At this time, Zhao Deji negotiated peace talks Immediately, Qin Hui will never be easily shaken.
Han Zhongliang was worried: "Yue Wu, you must be especially careful these days."
"Thank you, Mr. Han. I understand." He stood up and said leisurely, "Since Qin Hui is no longer here, our painting and calligraphy boy is no longer needed. For the time being, we can go back and drink and have fun with my wife."
Han Zhongliang had never seen such a person. The situation was so critical, but the person involved was completely unaware. He was so anxious that he wanted to go to Zhao Deji for Yue Pengju, but when he saw Yue Pengju drifting away, he thought, if Yue Wu doesn't become the number one scholar, It's a pity.
As soon as Yue Pengju left the palace, he hurriedly rode home. Hua Rong, Li Yian, and Senior Sister Gao were strolling in Yiyuan when they saw that he went home early. It was the first time for Li Yian and Senior Sister Gao to see Yue Pengju dressed like this. Surprised, I stared at him for a long time, as if I was looking at a stranger. Who is this handsome young man? How could it be Yue Pengju
Li Yi'an came from a famous family. He and his husband used to travel around the scholarly forest and met many good young masters. Now, when he saw the military commander who used to be a simple linen robe, his appearance suddenly changed because of this Confucian uniform, and he remembered his impassioned song "The River is Red". ”, only then did we realize that being an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs actually meant this.
Yue Pengju felt embarrassed, rubbed his head, and said with a smile: "Sister Seventeen prepared these for me."
Hua Rong's face was as red as a little girl's. When she saw everyone's astonishment, she smiled and went up to hold his hand. Because there were more and more unfortunate news these days, she had already practiced not to be alarmed, and she only counted every moment with her husband. You have to live a good day, no matter how bad it is, you will not be scared. She said softly: "Pengju, I am waiting for you to come back. I have prepared a lot of good things for you for lunch."
"Okay, I happen to be hungry."
Everyone entered the restaurant together. The old servant prepared a sumptuous lunch and everyone ate together. The two children of the fourth sister in high school have been facing their mother's tearful eyes every day these days. Seeing that the atmosphere finally relaxed a little today, they kept eating and drinking excitedly. Hua Rong Take good care of them and put their favorite dishes into their bowls one by one.
After finishing the meal, Senior Sister Gao had settled down her son and the room became quiet. Only then did Hua Rong tell Tianwei's letter. Yue Pengju frowned slightly and was a little surprised: "He actually attacked Tianwei too?"
Hua Rong said bitterly: "It's probably Jin Wushu and Qin Hui's fault again."
Li Yian responded: "Since the Queen Mother has returned, I'm afraid the princess will have to die."
