A cloudy and rainy scene went away, both of them were lying on the bed panting and not moving. Pei Wenxuan wanted to hug her, but Li Rong pushed him with some disgust and said, "I'm sweating."
Pei Wenxuan smiled, but didn't move. Li Rong reacted and wondered if her attitude was too strong, so she turned to the side and gently rested her head on Pei Wenxuan's shoulder. He asked her, "Does it hurt?"
"No." Li Rong closed her eyes and rested, but she was sticky, wanted to sleep and hung up, and felt lazy when she got up. Seeing that she was not sleeping well, Pei Wenxuan knew the reason. Come back and wipe her clean.
Li Rong accepted his service lazily, and finally fell asleep satisfied.
The two slept for an afternoon, and when they woke up, they didn't wait for the edict of Heli. Li Rong couldn't help but poked Pei Wenxuan with her elbow: "Father has not ordered yet, are you lying to me?"
"Am I lying to you about this?"
Pei Wenxuan laughed, and he thought about it: "He probably has other considerations."
"Then what do we need to do?"
Pei Wenxuan didn't speak, he thought for a moment in silence, and said slowly: "I'll let someone forge a confession of Hongde first, you wait a while to go to the Superintendent, see Hongde once, and after you go, you will condemn everyone, Only you and Hongde are left inside. When you come out, take your confession and say that you have the confession. After you get the confession back, you can write a document when you come back, put the confession and the document together, and submit it together. ."
"A forged confession is always false," Li Rong frowned, "Even if it is presented, it will be known upon inspection."
"You don't have to worry about this," Pei Wenxuan laughed, "I have my own arrangements. You only need to do one thing."
"what?"
"I just absolutely believe that this confession is true."
Li Rong thought for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and nodded. Although she didn't know what Pei Wenxuan planned, she was willing to believe him once.
In her experience, when the two of them do things, one person must take the lead. If each of them thinks of his own way, it will be a disaster.
Seeing that Li Rong came down so easily, Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but feel a little happy: "Your Highness, will you ask a few more questions?"
"You have your own plans."
Li Rong waved his hand, and when Pei Wenxuan heard what Li Rong said, he lowered his head and kissed her: "It's really good."
Having said that, Pei Wenxuan got up and went to get dressed, and said while wearing: "It's not too late, I'll make arrangements now, Your Highness, rest for a while, and I'll come to you when I get the confession."
"Um."
Li Rong nodded, and Pei Wenxuan put on her clothes. Seeing her lying on the bed in a daze, she didn't know what to think, so she couldn't help but instructed: "Don't patronize the bed, get up and eat quickly."
"understood."
Li Rong responded lazily, thinking that this man was a mother-in-law.
"Also, don't drink cold things recently, and don't approach things that are not suitable for pregnant women. Although the chances are not high, it is also just in case."
"You look down on yourself too much." Li Rong sneered, "Can you still get hit in one shot?"
Pei Wenxuan was mocked by her, but he was a little embarrassed. He grabbed the jacket in his hand, walked to the bed, lowered his head and kissed Li Rong lying on the bed, and said gently, "I'll go first."
Li Rong was a little irritable when he said that he would not leave for so long, but she still held her temperament and said, "Well."
Pei Wenxuan got up and walked out the door. When he got to the door, he felt a bit chilly. He couldn't help but turn his head back: "You go out and put on more clothes, now it's changed..."
"roll!"
Li Rong finally couldn't hold back, and couldn't bear to speak out. Pei Wenxuan heard her voice and knew that she was tired of the appointment. After thinking about it, she felt that she was too busy, so she stopped delaying and turned to leave.
Hongde painted and wrote spells for many people, but he couldn't get his characters. He found a master who specializes in imitating characters and made a copy. Although it couldn't stand the test at all, it looked similar.
In the evening, Pei Wenxuan brought back a confession, which he handed to Li Rong. Li Rong glanced at the confession and found that Hongde's entire confession was actually Su Rongqing who personally went to Huguo Temple to force him to deceive Concubine Rou. , made perjury to frame Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan.
For this confession, Concubine Rou was picked cleanly, so that Li Ming would be better off.
Li Rong looked at the confession quietly, and Pei Wenxuan saw that she didn't say anything, and his eyes became a little cold, but his smile was as warm as a spring breeze, and he couldn't see the slightest haze, only softly said: "If Your Highness thinks it's not right, then May I change another statement that Your Highness thinks is appropriate?"
Li Rong paused, and after a while, she shook her head gently: "No, there is nothing wrong."
Saying that, she put the confession in her sleeve and asked again, "Is there anything else that needs to be told?"
"No, everything is arranged." Pei Wenxuan chuckled, "Go early and return early."
Li Rong nodded and got up to go out. She rushed to the Superintendent and brought Hong De out.
After a few days in prison, Hongde has long since lost the appearance of the former monk, looking haggard and pitiful. When he saw Li Rong, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness, I am also bewitched by others, Your Highness, I beg you. Let go of the grass people."
Li Rong asked everyone to retreat and sat on the chair herself. She looked calm and gently shook her fan and said, "You said someone was bewitching you, but who is bewitching you?"
When Hongde heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Li Rong poured tea for him and comforted him: "Come on, talk slowly."
Hongde fell silent, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Caomin... Caomin doesn't know either."
"You said someone was bewitching you, but you said you didn't know?" Li Rong laughed, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"No, Your Highness," Hong De said quickly, "it's Caomin who really doesn't know. Caomin only knows that a young master came to Huguo Temple that night and called Caomin back. I didn't even see the face of his guard. But he tied Caomin's son, so Caomin can't do anything about it."
"You still have a son?" Li Rong was a little surprised, and then she reacted. With Hongde's temperament, it's not surprising that he has been wandering outside for so many years, raising a woman and giving birth to a son.
It's just that she doesn't know about it, but the other party does.
But think about it, many things in those days were actually handled by him. In terms of details, he knew more than she did, and it was normal.
Just thinking about it, she felt an unspeakable nausea and pain rolled up together. Li Rong lowered her eyes, stroked the little golden fan in her hand, and asked slowly, "Then what?"
"He tied up Caomin, put it in a carriage, and told me that he was going to tell me that you wanted to refute the timing of the prince's wedding. Caomin... Caomin can't be considered a lie, right?"
"You are lying."
Li Rong looked at him coldly: "I have never done such a thing."
Hongde was stunned, and quickly said: "Yes, yes, Your Highness has never asked anyone to look for Caomin. In any case, Your Highness, there is really no way for Caomin to do this. I hope Your Highness will spare a lot of Caomin."
"My lord is a lot, yes," Li Rong nodded, "if you're willing to do as I say."
Hongde looked up at Li Rong, and Li Rong smiled: "Identify what Su Rongqing asked you to do."
"Su Rongqing?" Hong De reacted, "Eldest son of the Su family?"
Li Rong nodded and Hongde laughed: "Your Highness, what's the difference between you and letting me die?"
"Then you don't want to?"
Hongde didn't speak, and Li Rong also understood that Hongde listened to Su Rongqing because his son was in his hands. Now she has nothing to coerce him, only his life, in his identity, just identified Su Rongqing, the Su family can't spare him. Since they were all dead, he probably didn't want to cause trouble.
After all, he didn't know who the child was in the hands of.
Li Rong looked at Hongde without fear, she smiled lightly, and simply sat and chatted with Hongde.
Hongde carefully returned to Li Rong's words. He has served many dignitaries over the years, so he talked to Li Rong for a while.
Li Rong knew him well, especially the dirty things he did. Hongde didn't really want to hurt anyone. He just liked money and lied countless times in order to cheat money.
Li Rong asked him how he lied, with a respectful look on his face, Hongde also knew that he might die soon, and Li Rong also knew his details, so he showed off.
After listening to his past carefully, Li Rong couldn't help frowning: "You lied to so many people and hurt so many people, don't you feel guilty?"
Hongde's tea drinking paused, and after a while, he suddenly laughed: "Then Your Highness, don't you feel guilty?"
"What am I guilty of?"
Li Rong frowned, Hongde took a sip of tea: "I later became a monk, I had money, and after reading a lot of books, I learned a word, I have enough food and clothing to know honor and disgrace. There are many people like me in this world. Especially among the pariahs, I'm pretty good."
"You haven't seen those who kill for the sake of two or two," Hong De sneered, "that's called harm. You say that if there are one or two of people like me by chance, it can be said that we are born evil, but if Are there so many bad people in this world?"
"You always ask us why we do evil, why don't we ask ourselves, why do we do good?"
When Li Rong heard these words, her expression didn't change. If she was young, she would probably sneer at it, thinking that a good person is a good person even in the mud, and a bad person is always a bad person. But now she doesn't think so anymore. It's a saint, but how many saints are there in this world
She didn't say much, looked at the sky outside, and saw that it was late, she stood up, ordered someone to leave him some tea, and then walked out.
After going out and returning to the Princess' Mansion, Pei Wenxuan was not in the house, so Li Rong couldn't help but feel a little strange. Looking at Jinglan who was making the bed, she turned to ask Jingmei who was washing her feet, "Where's the concubine?"
"The concubine moved out of the inner courtyard."
Jingmei raised her head and said a little worriedly: "He said you understand the reason, but the servants don't dare to ask more questions. Your Highness, are you conflicting again?"
The prince-in-law and the princess in the princess' manor had conflicts once every three days, and they were all short of servants.
Li Rong thought about it and understood what Pei Wenxuan meant. Since Pei Wenxuan asked Li Ming to reconcile, even if Li Ming did not issue the edict now, he would have to pretend. I don't know how many informants there are in the princess' mansion, and they can guarantee that the inner courtyard is their cronies, but if the two of them have been doing well and spread it out, it will be hard to guarantee that it will make Li Ming suspicious.
So Li Rong nodded and didn't say much. In the evening, he wrote the essay carefully, word by word, and put the essay and the confession together. When Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong met in the early morning of the next day, Pei Wenxuan had a cold face, Li Rongyang With a smile, Pei Wenxuan whispered, "Have you written the book yet?"
"All right."
Li Rong responded, "Don't worry."
Li Rong handed over the book on the same day.
According to the process, unless there are special circumstances, the general excerpts are passed through the memorial hall and reviewed by the officials of the memorial hall. According to the different priorities, they are sorted and submitted to the emperor for approval.
Li Rong's paper entered the memorial hall. She didn't have the red letter marked "expedited", so she had to wait for the approval of these officials with the ordinary paper.
While Li Rong was waiting, Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong lived separately.
Pei Wenxuan lives in the outer courtyard, and Li Rong lives in the inner courtyard. Except for going to Zaochao together in the morning to pretend that they are husband and wife, it seems that they have really quarreled.
The news reached Li Ming's ears. Li Ming didn't speak. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Let them go."
Fu Lai listened to Li Ming's tone and asked carefully, "Then the imperial edict that His Majesty said before?"
"Let's see." Li Mingsi Chen said, "A good woman can't marry twice. If she can't break up a marriage, she doesn't have to..."
Having said that, Li Ming thought for a while: "Let's take a look."
Li Ming knew the news, and his worries were relieved, but Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan suffered.
The two of them just got married, and they were happy for less than a year in their last life. In this life, they managed to make up for it, and they were stuck here again, so the two of them were tossing and turning at night, except that they could have a little alone time in the carriage, and they were afraid It is more troublesome to light the fire, so I can only drink water and talk about business all the way.
After two days of torment, Li Rong finally got used to it a little bit. She ate dinner alone, and went back to the room bored. Just as she pushed the door, someone grabbed her mouth and pressed it against the door.
Li Rong smelled Pei Wenxuan's usual fragrance, and she knew who was coming without looking up.
She didn't know why, but her heart beat a little faster, and she couldn't help swallowing.
She guessed that Pei Wenxuan couldn't help coming to her.
She didn't know whether it was better to be more reserved at this time, or to be more cooperative with excitement, or to reprimand him and not take risks for this kind of thing.
She was hesitating when she heard Pei Wenxuan lowered his voice and said anxiously, "The documents you gave in the memorial hall were taken away. Before they respond, hurry up and enter the palace."
"It's started."
