But Liu Changsheng obviously understood. He gently took Zhou Ran into his arms, kissed Zhou Ran's forehead gently, and said softly: "Ranran, I don't regret it."
"Liu Changsheng," Zhou Ran touched Liu Changsheng's face and looked at Liu Changsheng unblinkingly with tears in her eyes, "from now on, I will not regret it."
Liu Changsheng's nose suddenly became sore and his eyes were extremely hot, but he still smiled in the end. He leaned over and gently kissed Zhou Ran's tearful eyes.

The second day of February in the 28th year of Jiasheng

Royal study room.
Lu Mingwei stared at Duan Feihong, the Minister of Rites, who was kneeling on the ground with a gloomy look on his face, until Duan Feihong broke out in sweat.
"Zhang Zi'ang is really a good master. He has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests for so many years, but he still always thinks about his good apprentice," Lu Mingwei said with a cold face, "Prince Ning did such an outrageous thing. What he did The master did not reflect on his carelessness in cultivating talents, but he still had the nerve to cry out for the injustice of Prince Ning, which is really a slap in the face!"
As soon as Ningjun Wangfu was imprisoned in the clan mansion by Long Live, Zhang Ziang went out to plead grievances for his disciples. Why did Ruan Xinhuai act rebelliously and humiliate Tianyan? Ningjunwang executed Ruan Xinhuai to protect Tianyan, which was called filial piety; Ningjunwang protected Ruan Xinhuai with the respect of his eldest brother. Prince Huai was called a traitor instead of being handed over to the Ministry of Justice for trial; Prince Ningjun served as a soldier guarding the border at the age of fifteen. Now he is disabled, but he is loyal to the country and eliminates sycophants. He has been loyal to the country for decades. Lijiangshan Sheji is called loyalty; the king of Ningjun did not hesitate to execute the court officials and punish the pregnant prince, but did not break trust with the people of southern Xinjiang, which is called trust; the king of Ningjun, a dignified royal family, has treated the refugees in southern Xinjiang favorably for many years, which is called courtesy; The prince of the county executed Prince Ruan Xinhuai, but he did not implicate his subordinates. The so-called righteousness can be said to be filial piety, loyalty, trustworthiness, etiquette and justice. In fact, he is a perfect person in ancient and modern times, and he really should not be imprisoned in the clan mansion.
Zhang Ziang is the greatest Confucian in Dali, and he has a transcendent status among the scholars. With Zhang Ziang's words of encouragement, naturally many people responded. For a time, not only the government and the public, the literati, but also the common people were discussing the issue of Prince Ning. , from the left and right ministers to the untouchables of southern Xinjiang in Xiahe Village, all complained about the injustice of Ningjun Wang.
Lu Mingwei had to show his shame, and Lu Zhishan also had to let go.
"It's so lively outside, but you, the Minister of Rites, are quite leisurely. I haven't seen you say a word from the beginning to the end." Lu Mingwei looked at the sweaty Duan Feihong coldly, and curled his lips sarcastically, "I almost forgot, You are the father-in-law of Prince Ning, so naturally you will be on Prince Ning’s side.”
"Long live Lord Mingjian! Wei Chen doesn't dare!" Duan Feihong turned pale and kept kowtowing, "Long live Lord Ming Jian, since Wei Chen's daughter Duan died of illness, Wei Chen has no contact with Prince Ningjun anymore, let alone now Prince Ningjun Having already married Princess Anle, it is even more inappropriate for me to associate with Prince Ning! Please give me a warning!"
"No more contact?" Lu Mingwei curled his lips sarcastically, "You and the Prime Minister didn't stand so rigidly outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony that day?! Didn't you want to plead with Prince Ning?!"
