Li Rong helped Qin Zhenzhen and immediately called others to come. She asked others to fetch the carriage and checked the surroundings. After confirming that no one saw the surroundings, she put Qin Zhenzhen on the carriage and rushed back to the princess immediately. government.
Qin Zhenzhen was injured, Li Rong took out the regular medicine from the drawer and bandaged Qin Zhenzhen's wound. Qin Zhenzhen gritted her teeth and said nothing. After arriving at the princess' mansion, Li Rong called the doctor in the princess' mansion. After coming to the consultation, the doctor cleaned the wound and prescribed the medicine again, before turning his head and saying to Li Rong, "This girl has skin injuries on her body, she can rest for a while. Your Highness does not need to worry."
Li Rong nodded and let people go down first. She stood beside the bed for a moment, Qin Zhenzhen closed her eyes as if she was resting, she thought about it, and was about to make a sound when there was a noise outside. Li Rong hurried out of the inner room, and as soon as she walked around the screen, she saw Pei Wenxuan and Li Chuan come in.
"what's the situation?"
Li Rong immediately raised her eyes to look at Pei Wenxuan. Pei Wenxuan still had rain on his body, and his expression was condensed: "There is no problem with the process of sealing up the Qin family. Now His Majesty can only send middlemen to ensure that they don't make mistakes."
"Who added?"
"Su Rongqing. He is the minister of punishment and has a high status, and he did not participate in this dispute."
After hearing Su Rongqing's name, Li Rong calmed down a little, Pei Wenxuan saw Li Rong's expression change, he paused, and then said: "I met His Royal Highness in front of the palace gate, he wants to come to you, I will Bring him back with you."
Li Rong responded and turned her head to look at Li Chuan. Li Chuan's eyes were slightly red, but his expression was extremely cold. Li Rong knew what must have happened to him in the palace, and said, "Why did you enter the palace?"
"I went to my mother."
Li Chuan made a hoarse voice, and Li Rong paused, then hesitated: "Then what?"
Li Chuan didn't speak. After a long time, he suddenly said, "Sister, let's investigate this case."
Li Rong froze in place, Li Chuan calmly said: "I'm not good at doing it, if I do, the family will react too much, I'm afraid they will immediately think of a way to abolish me, now the royal father doesn't trust me, I can't be too much to the family Too tough."
"You want to do something to the people involved in this case."
Li Rong must have said, "These are uncle's people, have you thought about it?"
"Think about it."
Li Chuan said calmly: "I don't want a disobedient knife that doesn't sharpen its sharp corners."
Li Rong was silent, and after a while, she said slowly, "What did the queen mother tell you?"
"After I learned about the Qin family, I went to the palace and questioned her. This matter is too risky. If I can confuse right and wrong like this, just relying on the relationship of the aristocratic family, the case of an aristocratic family will be turned into an iron case. Say, how terrifying is this? Moreover, the court battle, so framed and exterminated," Li Chuan closed his eyes, "It's too much."
"What did the mother say?"
"She asked me if I had an affair with Qin Zhenzhen." Li Chuan laughed, seeming to find it absurd, "asked me if I didn't want to marry Shangguanya because of this."
"She sent someone to check on me. She found out about the matter of going to Qin Lin before. She thought I was going to find Qin Lin for Qin Zhenzhen. Later, at the palace banquet, Qin Zhenzhen was the second perfumer, and Qin Zhenzhen and I were second. She really said a few words, and she knew it."
"In addition, Qin Zhenzhen has been in the limelight recently because of the fragrance, and there are rumors in the palace that the father seems to intend to make her the crown prince. The mother is worried that Qin Zhenzhen will threaten Shangguanya's position, so she spread the news to her uncle."
Li Chuan smiled bitterly: "Uncle was just about to take out a family to kill the chickens and show the monkeys, so he chose the Qin family."
"I'm not surprised that they want to use a family to operate. It's just that I didn't expect that it would be such a thunderous method."
Li Rong also guessed that the Shangguan family would choose a family to suppress, but she never thought that the charge would be for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.
Such a serious crime, everyone can see, this is a warning to Li Ming from the Shangguan family.
Now it seems that it is also a warning to Li Chuan, who is unwilling to accept the crown princess.
Li Chuan looked a little tired, but Li Rong didn't speak. Li Chuan looked up at her and said slowly, "Sister, you said that a person is strong enough to have the right to choose."
"Yes."
"Then, let me ask you a question today," Li Chuan stared at her, "are you willing to get involved in this case?"
Li Rong was silent, Li Chuan looked at her calmly, and continued: "If you are willing, I will support you with all my strength. You can find a suitable reason today to ask Your Majesty to surrender, and take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate this case. Establish a supervisory department. This department can be directly under His Majesty's responsibility, not included in the jurisdiction of the three provinces, as a supervisor independent of the court, and has the right to be killed.
"You're a princess. Looking at my mother and I, no one dares to do anything to you. It's perfect for you to do this."
"And in the future, if I ascend the throne," Li Chuan lowered his voice and promised, "The Supervision Division will still be yours."
This is the power that belongs to her completely.
Li Rong didn't say anything, and Li Chuan immediately said: "But this is too risky, and my sister doesn't have to rush to make a decision. If my sister doesn't want to, it's fine." Li Chuan looked at her, paused, and looked solemn, "Anyway, You are all princesses."
After Li Chuan finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the heavy rain outside the house, and said in a low voice, "I want to prepare for the morning, sister, rest well, I'll go first."
Li Rong finally responded and sent Li Chuan off together with Pei Wenxuan.
After Li Chuan left, Li Rong stood there and didn't speak, and Pei Wenxuan quietly accompanied her.
After a long time, he said: "You go back and add some clothes first, the Qin family has already been imprisoned, so there is no rush..."
Before he finished speaking, there was a soft call from the side: "His Royal Highness."
Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan turned their heads together and saw Qin Zhenzhen standing beside the screen.
Pei Wenxuan glanced at Li Rong in surprise. He wanted to ask something, but he didn't dare to say more. He just took a step back without a trace and stood behind Li Rong.
Li Rong looked at Qin Zhenzhen quietly, and then saw Qin Zhenzhen kneeling down with a sword in front of her.
"The girl begs His Highness to start the Supervision Department."
"You beg me, what can you give me?" Li Rong sneered, Qin Zhenzhen pursed her lips, and could only grit her teeth: "Walk through fire and water, and do whatever you want."
"Going through fire and water?" Li Rong chuckled, "You are a girl from a cold family, what can you do? Can I still let you marry?"
"The girl's life is short, and there is nothing other than the long sword in her hand. If Your Highness wishes," Qin Zhenzhen raised her head and looked directly at Li Rong, "There will be no second Miss Qin in this world."
Li Rong looked into Qin Zhenzhen's eyes, and she suddenly knew what Qin Zhenzhen wanted.
Qin Zhenzhen does not belong to Huajing, nor does he belong to the court.
"Do I want you to kill someone?"
"Can."
"Am I going to your northwest?"
"it is good."
"Qin Zhenzhen, I won't make such a decision for you alone."
"I understand. But I have to try."
Li Rong didn't speak, and the two looked at each other quietly. After a long time, Li Rong threw her sleeves and turned around: "You rest, I'll think about it."
Having said that, Li Rong instructed the people next to her to take care of Qin Zhenzhen, and went out directly.
Pei Wenxuan walked beside Li Rong, the two walked side by side on the corridor, Li Rong touched the golden fan in her hand, and did not make a sound.
It was raining heavily outside, the sky was dark with dark clouds, and the lanterns were swaying gently by the wind on the promenade. Pei Wenxuan walked beside Li Rong to shield her from the cold wind.
The two remained silent for a while, and Li Rong suddenly asked, "Do I still have a choice?"
"Your Highness, as long as you are willing to give power," Pei Wenxuan looked at the end of the corridor, put his hands between his sleeves, and said slowly, "What can't you choose?"
"If you don't set up a supervisory department, or even ignore the prince, you are still my wife, Princess Pingle."
Pei Wenxuan said, turned his head, and smiled: "Establish the Supervision Department, if you win, you will be the eldest princess, who is one person under ten thousand people. If you lose, there will be no bones left."
"If I had nothing, would I still be your wife?"
Li Rong thought it was a little funny, but Pei Wenxuan didn't speak.
The moment Li Rong asked the question in his mind, he didn't know what was going on, he felt subconsciously.
If Li Rong had nothing, she might be his wife for life.
But this thought flashed by, and he didn't delve into it. Whether it was true or not, this answer was not suitable for telling Li Rong at this time, because he knew very well that Li Rong not only wouldn't believe it, but he might have to step on it twice. foot.
So he chuckled: "Maybe one day, when that time comes, you'll know?"
"Forget it," Li Rong laughed, "the price is too high, I still don't know."
The two talked and walked to the door together. Li Rong said slowly, "Are you ready to go to court? Go to another room to change clothes, I'll think about it."
Pei Wenxuan responded, and when Li Rong opened the door, he suddenly stopped Li Rong: "Your Highness."
Li Rong didn't look back, and listened to the people behind her: "Actually, no matter which path you choose, if one day you are cut with a thousand cuts, I will definitely be in front of you."
If she was just his wife and she died, someone must have stepped over his body.
If she establishes a supervisory department, she is finished, and he must be finished too.
Whether as husband and wife, or as allies, they have long lived and died together.
"So," Pei Wenxuan said softly, "choose a path you like."
With her back to Pei Wenxuan, Li Rong couldn't help raising the corner of her mouth and said, "I see, it's noisy."
With that, she entered the room and closed the door.
After she entered the door, she stood in the dark, then she walked to the edge of the desk and found a place to sit down.
The establishment of the Supervision Department, she has done similar things in her previous life.
The source of a person's power must originate from what he holds in his hand to determine the power of others.
The more people who can decide, the wider the range of decisions, and the more power she really controls.
For example, the current Pei Wenxuan is under her control. The core is that Pei Wenxuan needs her money, her people, and her status as a princess, so that he can silently shock others in the officialdom.
But money, people, and identity are not scarce resources.
If she wants to build a center of power with herself as the core, she must involve the matter of holding authority. In the last life, she also established an agency similar to the Supervision Department, but most of it was based on the identity of the eldest princess, and did not directly establish an agency independent of the three provinces.
The Supervision Division is a sharp blade. If you don't use it well, she may hurt herself.
Li Rong closed her eyes and tapped the palm of her hand with a fan to sort out the entire situation.
Now she has three ways to go. The first one is to persuade Li Chuan to marry Shangguanya as the main concubine and Qin Zhenzhen as the side concubine. As long as Qin Zhenzhen has no influence on the crown princess, the queen will not insist on getting rid of Qin. Family.
But in this way, Li Chuan completely exposed Qin Lin's card to the Shangguan family and completely relied on the family. Li Ming will find a reason to abolish the prince in the future, and Li Chuan will have to rely on the power of the family to ascend the throne again. But the Yang family fell too early in this life, and I don't know what will change in the future. And depending on the family, the conflict between the family and Li Chuan will still erupt in the future.
The second rule is to let Li Chuan and Pei Wenxuan take care of everything, either Li Chuan will give up the Qin family completely, or Li Chuan will return to the first way. But no matter what, Li Chuan still had to accept the control of the Shangguan family.
The third article, the establishment of the Supervision Department.
Li Rong opened her eyes and looked at the dim light falling on the ground through the window after dawn. Her eyes were bright.
Aristocratic families are swords, but a sword must have a scabbard. Today's Han family is not enough for a scabbard, so she has to be that scabbard.
Establish a supervisory department, thoroughly investigate the people involved in Qin's case, use her supervisory department to intimidate the family, and then secretly connect with the rest of the Shangguan family to support the new Shangguan Patriarch.
In this way, she can completely control the Shangguan family, intimidate the family, and even have the power to directly overthrow Concubine Rou, without having to be restrained everywhere like now.
The family has become a sword with a scabbard and is under her control. Only in the future can the conflicts between Li Chuan and the family be resolved. The Shangguan family will not be like the last life, except for one Shangguan Ya who stayed in the palace, if it wasn't for her desperate protection, most of them would have ended bleak.
The power must be in her hands, and she has a choice.
Li Rong thought of this, and there was a familiar blood tumbling in her veins.
As Pei Wenxuan said, the road of the Superintendent is the best road and the most dangerous road.
"Thousands of knives..."
Li Rong tapped her fan on the palm of her hand, and after a while, she let out a low laugh.
She stood up, came to the desk, envisioned the whole plan for the establishment of the Supervision Department, and then wrote a document. While writing the document, she instructed Jinglan outside: "Jinglan, go and invite Miss Qin, let me She comes over and asks them to go to the palace, and the concubine will stop him and let him come to me."
Jinglan responded, and Qin Zhenzhen was led into the room after a while.
Qin Zhenzhen changed into a set of clothes, and her face was still a little pale. She came in to salute Li Rong first, and Li Rong raised her hand to get her up, while writing the book, she said, "I will enter the palace in a while and ask for an inspection of the Qin family. case, do you have anything for me?"
Qin Zhenzhen heard this, and looked up at Li Rong with some expectation in his eyes: "Your Highness agreed?"
"I will discuss with Your Majesty about the Supervision Division. As for you," Li Rong looked up at Qin Zhenzhen, "I will give you the choice."
Qin Zhenzhen was stunned for a while, and Li Rong said directly: "You are not suitable for Huajing, nor for marriage within the family. Today, you have two options. Bring your things from the Qin family to me, and I will have someone protect you. Send it back to the Qin family, you are still Miss Qin, and in the future, you will marry a good family in Huajing, marry a husband and teach children, and this will be your life."
"What about the second way?"
Qin Zhenzhen looked at Li Rong and asked directly. Li Rong stared into Qin Zhenzhen's eyes. She remembered the moment when Qin Zhenzhen closed the coffin in the last life.
She was lying in the coffin, holding a long sword in her arms. That was not the usual ritual of a noble concubine. It was Li Chuan forcibly put her in the coffin.
Li Rong looked at her, and after a long time, she said: "If the Supervisory Division is established to investigate the Qin family's case, it may use some extraordinary means. I need someone with strong martial arts to help me. After I do it, the family may have Extreme revenge, they dare not look for me, they will trouble my subordinates."
"You want me to be that person." Qin Zhenzhen said immediately.
Li Rong responded: "Yes, the Qin family case is over, you can't stay in Huajing anymore. I will send you directly to the northwest. The Yang family has collapsed in the northwest and is in chaos. You set up a branch of the Supervision Department in the northwest to assist you. Qin Lin got the military power in the northwest and stabilized the northwest. I will make plans in the future when I have full wings."
"But from now on," Li Rong said in a serious tone, "you are neither Qin nor the daughter of the Qin family, so as not to implicate the Qin family in what you do. I will arrange for a reasonable death for Qin Zhenzhen."
Qin Zhenzhen was silent and did not speak. Li Rong lowered her head and wrote the last sentence of the book. Then she put down her pen and raised her head: "Give me an answer."
Qin Zhenzhen stretched out his sleeves, knelt down and kowtowed, and said respectfully, "Your Highness please give me your name."
Li Rong was not surprised by Qin Zhenzhen's choice. She looked at Qin Zhenzhen quietly and said, "Don't regret it?"
"His Royal Highness walks the thorny road for the Qin family, and the girl An dares to protect herself
"I'm not doing it for the Qin family," Li Rong met her eyes, "If you repay your kindness, you don't have to."
"Me too for myself."
Qin Zhenzhen answered seriously.
Li Rong looked at her, and after a long time, she took the book and walked past Qin Zhenzhen: "In the future, your name is Xun Chuan, get up and enter the palace with me."
Qin Zhenzhen stood up and followed behind Li Rong, Li Rong took the book: "What did your family give you?"
"The family token within the Qin family," Qin Zhenzhen said in a low voice, "and grandpa's blood book from Chen Qingbai, which I brought to the northwest for my third uncle and brother."
"it is good."
Li Rong nodded and led Qin Zhenzhen out. Qin Zhenzhen's wound was bleeding, and she subconsciously raised her hand to cover it. Li Rong glanced at it and said with a smile, "I may have to aggrieve you today, and the worse it looks. the better."
"Listen to His Highness's orders."
The two got on the carriage and arrived at the gate of the palace in a short while. Li Rong waited for a while at the gate of the palace. Pei Wenxuan got a notification from Li Rong's person as soon as he went to court, and asked him to meet her at the gate of the palace. When Pei Wenxuan got the news, he rushed over excitedly next morning, happily rolled up the curtain and jumped into the carriage, and said happily, "You have something to ask for today..."
Before he could finish speaking, Pei Wenxuan froze. He raised his eyes to see Qin Zhenzhen sitting inside, and then glanced at Li Rong. After hesitating for a while, he turned around and said, "Why don't I change the carriage..."
"sit down."
Li Rong spoke directly, and Pei Wenxuan immediately sat next to Li Rong, as if getting closer to Li Rong would give him a certain sense of security.
Li Rong gave him a strange look and continued: "I went to the palace to find your majesty, and said that Qin Zhen was really your old acquaintance. After running out, I found you and rescued you. You introduced her to me, and I couldn't bear to look at the Pei family. The tragic scene, so I decided to come to the Qin family to call the shots."
Pei Wenxuan responded and only said, "Well, I will explain to Your Majesty that it is I who provoked the relationship between you and the Queen, so that you want to control your own power, and you have the heart to build a supervisory department."
"it is good."
"Look at the book," Li Rong handed the book to Pei Wenxuan, "to see if there is any problem."
Pei Wenxuan took it in response, scanned Li Rong's portfolio, and then said, "That's it."
The two discussed the details of the confession, and let Qin Zhenzhen tell the truth. Just change the person who saved people to Pei Wenxuan, not Li Rong.
The three parties made a good confession. When they arrived at the imperial study, Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong came down. Qin Zhen was really injured, so she had to rest in the carriage first. The two of them stood at the door of the imperial study and had someone inform Li Ming.
When standing at the door, Pei Wenxuan was obviously much more relaxed. Li Rong glanced at him and said indifferently, "Why are you nervous in the carriage?"
"I don't know either," Pei Wenxuan sighed, thought about it, and couldn't help but say, "It's probably just like how you felt when Su Rongqing was in the carriage."
Li Rong immediately understood this feeling, she thought for a moment, leaned over, and whispered, "I need to trouble you with one thing."
Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan had a bad intuition. He turned his head and looked at Li Rong with some vigilance: "It's not a good thing for you to talk like this."
Li Rong smiled and showed a pleasing smile: "Go to the official office later and make an appointment with Su Rongqing for me?"
Pei Wenxuan: "..."
Li Rong raised her eyebrows: "You don't even help me, how dare you call me a friend?"
"Time and place." Pei Wenxuan turned his head, with a calm expression on his face, "If you don't know where to go, I can help you."
"Then would you recommend it to me?"
"Listening to the roof of the wind building, listening to the wind and watching the moon and talking, it's very stylish."
Pei Wenxuan's suggestion to Li Rong sounded good, even if it was serious business, Li Rong liked to be more elegant. So she knocked her small fan into the palm of her hand and said happily: "Very good, then I will listen to Fenglou this afternoon. It is quite interesting to drink at dusk."
"Stop dreaming." Pei Wenxuan glanced at her sideways and sneered, "This place is lively, you have to make a reservation a month in advance, you can just find a tea house and talk about it, what style do you want?"
"You are wrong."
Li Rong immediately corrected him: "Young Master Su..."
Before he could finish speaking, Fu Lai walked out and interrupted the two of them.
"Princess, concubine, Your Majesty, please come in."
The two looked at each other, Li Rong nodded, and walked in.
The author has something to say: [Small Theater]
Pei Wenxuan: "I'm so happy that my wife came to pick me up from get off work today, I'll hurry to find my wife~"
(Raises the curtain, sees two women inside, freezes)
Pei Wenxuan put down the curtain: "Sorry, farewell, send the proposition."
