My Princess Has Been Reborn

Princess Liang is not allowed to participate in politics, and even if it affects the court, it is through the hands of her son-in-law after marriage, so the status of a son-in-law is not an obstacle to the court of Liang Guo, on the contrary, it is a great help.

Like Lu Qipei, who had no root or foundation at first, but now he can get along like a fish in water in Dali Temple. Many people think it's because of Qi Yang.

Lu Qipei didn't make any distinctions, she was a self-made young minister, she was conscientious, and she had already been recognized and convinced by her superiors and colleagues in three years.As for the rhetoric and ideas of others, she doesn't care.

Another case came out in Beijing this day, Lu Qipei led people to go out to investigate for half a day, and only returned to Dali Temple in the afternoon.

After Shangsi, the weather got hotter, and I was sweating a lot after traveling for half a day.Lu Qipei ordered his servants to fetch water, prepare meals, get ready for a rest, and then continue to sort out the case files.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lu Qipei had washed his hands and face and sat in front of the desk, before Lu Qipei had time to enjoy the belated lunch, a servant rushed in to report that the king of Chu had sent someone to invite her to stay in Taoran after she was on duty. Syria.

Lu Qipei's hand holding the chopsticks stopped, thinking about it, but he didn't think of his relationship with the King of Chu.

In the court, Qi Yang and Lu Qipei's position has always been very clear, even if the prince's current situation is not good, the two will stand firmly behind him.It's not that the kings never tried to win over, but they were all rejected by Qi Yang mercilessly, and the two sides became antagonistic over time.

Lu Qipei was a little puzzled, wondering why the king of Chu, who should have given up his mind long ago, came to him again.She held the bowl and chopsticks for a moment, then shook her head and refused: "Today there is a new case to be investigated in Dali Temple. I don't know when I will be able to come down. I don't want His Highness Chu to wait for a long time."

The servant got her reply, bowed and retreated, and conveyed the message to the attendants of the King of Chu.

But after a while, the servant who went out to convey the message ran back again.

Lu Qipei ate his meal slowly, with today's case still in his mind, he raised his eyes to look at him: "What's wrong?"

The servant bowed forward and handed over a piece of letter paper: "The king of Chu ordered someone to deliver this to your lord."

Lu Qipei finally put down the bowl and chopsticks, took the letter paper and opened it to see, there were two dates written on it.One was three years ago, and the other was four years ago. Ordinary people may be puzzled for a while after seeing them.However, Lu Qipei's mind turned quickly, and he quickly recognized these two days, and after thinking about it, he also understood King Chu's intentions and threats.

Slightly lowering her eyes, she folded the letter again, and if the servant opposite looked up, she could see the playful smile on her lips.But the servant lowered his eyebrows from the beginning to the end, so he didn't see it, he only heard his lord say: "Those who go back to King Chu, I will go as promised."

The servant didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurriedly retreated after answering.

Lu Qipei casually left the letter on the table aside, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and started eating again, without the panic and worry that the King of Chu thought.

Throughout the afternoon, Lu Qipei was very calm, as usual, he was busy sorting out the files and sorting out the case.She was busy until the afterglow of the setting sun poured into the house, and the servants outside finally couldn't help reminding her that she remembered that there was an appointment with the king of Chu.

Looking at the files on the table, Lu Qipei pressed his forehead with a headache, got up after thinking about it and went out, and casually ordered the servants beside him: "Lock the door, no one is allowed to enter without permission, and don't touch anything inside."

The little official agreed, turned around and locked the door for her, ensuring that everything would be as usual when she came tomorrow.

Lu Qipei didn't stop, he walked out and asked: "I'm a little busy today, but did you send the news back to your house?"

Dali Temple is an unusual place, and the time of the investigation is often uncertain, so in order not to worry Qi Yang, she has already told the servants around her that as long as she is on duty and cannot return home on time, there is no need to ask her, and she will go to the mansion first to send a message. message back.

The servant has long been used to this, so he naturally bowed and replied: "The news has already been passed on, Your Highness knows that Your Excellency will return late."

Lu Qipei nodded, and walked out of Dali Temple without stopping: "Did you also talk about the invitation from the King of Chu?"

The servant replied without thinking, "I have already said that, His Highness lets you do as you please."

Lu Qipei nodded in satisfaction, quite indifferent to the fact that he had no privacy at all.Although the servant knew this earlier, seeing the appearance of the son-in-law, he still couldn't help but wonder inwardly. I really don't know if this calmness is true temperament or a fake gesture?

But no matter what, the princess consort and husband and wife are harmonious, and life for these servants is easy.

Just as he was thinking, Lu Qipei had left the government office and boarded the carriage.

The servant hurriedly jumped onto the shaft of the carriage, and the driver drove the carriage to Tao Ranju.

Most of Liang Guo's official offices are on duty at Mao's hour, and they are on duty at Shen Shi. The more leisurely government offices are on duty earlier, and some of them will return to the government in the afternoon.Of course, Dali Temple is not among the leisurely ones, but the king of Chu thought that Lu Qipei was afraid, so he would definitely attend the appointment at the time of Shen.

Therefore, in order to cool off Lu Qipei and make her even more terrified, the King of Chu waited until the end of Shen before going to Tao Ranju for an appointment.

However, when I went to the place and asked, no one came yet!

King Chu's complexion was not good at that time, but he still patiently went to the private room to wait.Unexpectedly, the wait lasted more than half an hour, and the tea in front of him had been changed twice before that person came late.

Lu Qipei was able to enter Tao Ranju at sunset, thanks to the fact that this place is not far from the government office of Dali Temple.

She entered the private room and saw the King of Chu, and when she greeted him, she said apologetic words, but there was not much apology on her face: "The lower official was negligent in handling the file and forgot the time. I came late, I hope His Highness will forgive me."

The King of Chu squinted at her for a while, but he was surprised, suspicious and angry in his heart - he was surprised by Lu Qipei's calmness.Doubt is that his guess is wrong?The anger is naturally due to the other party's indifferent attitude!

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, but he quickly came to a conclusion: it must not be that he guessed wrong, otherwise why would Lu Qipei go to the appointment?Since she came, she felt guilty, and now she made such a calm gesture, but it was just for herself.

Thinking about it this way, King Chu settled down again, and all the previous emotions eased up.He stood up with a natural expression and invited Lu Qipei to sit down: "It's okay. Lu Shaoqing is busy with official duties, and he is also loyal to my leader. How can I blame you?"

Lu Qipei raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and noticed that the king of Chu called him not a son-in-law, but an official position.

After the two sat down, they exchanged a few pleasantries. Lu Qipei came here today just to hear what the King of Chu had planned, and had no intention of entangled with him.In addition, he was still thinking about going home, so he asked first: "Your Highness invited me here today, what do you mean?"

While speaking, Lu Qipei took out the letter paper sent by the king of Chu from his sleeve pocket, and gently placed it on the table between the two of them.

Seeing this, the King of Chu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "My son-in-law is a smart man, so he should know what to choose." He tapped his fingertips on the letter paper: "You should also understand that what I have in my king's hands is more than just this handy one. written on letterhead."

Lu Qipei could hear the threat in his words, but she really wanted to ask, what exactly is Chu Wang holding in his hand, and why did she think that Lu Sheng would be her handle?However, she still wanted to wait for the King of Chu to reveal the real purpose of today's invitation. After swallowing all these words, she only held the teacup and turned it gently, and asked following his words: "Then what does Your Highness want?"

The King of Chu thought she was compromising, so he immediately felt complacent, and said, "I want you to join my sect."

Lu Qipei refused without even thinking about it, put down his teacup, and said loudly, "Impossible!"

The King of Chu was not surprised by Lu Qipei's decisive attitude.After all, Lu Qipei has no foundation in the court, she has always relied on Qi Yang, and Qi Yang has always relied on the prince.

In fact, the king of Chu also understood that even if the prince is not as good as before, as long as he does not fall for a day, his power will not be comparable to that of their brothers.With a single word from her, she wanted Lu Qipei to dig her own foundation, but she would definitely refuse, maybe she would get rid of that little baby when she went back, and it would be better than cutting off her future and wealth.

When the King of Chu said this, it was just to test Lu Qipei's bottom line first.Since Lu Qipei refused, he didn't force it either. He casually said a few words to ease the atmosphere, and then the two of them started fighting again.

After Lu Qipei refilled his tea, he felt a little impatient. It was only at this time that the King of Chu said: "I heard that the Qingzhou assassination case has now been transferred to Dali Temple for trial. With Lu Shaoqing's position, there must be someone Right to ask, right?"

Dali Temple is in charge of prisons all over the world, especially when officials are involved, most cases will be directly referred to Dali Temple.As the king of Chu said about the case of the governor of Qingzhou, Lu Qipei just lowered his eyes and thought about it, and then remembered that the governor of Qingzhou invaded the fertile land in Qingzhou, allowed his children to bully men and women, tortured and killed the people, and was finally reported by the long history book , and now the case files have indeed been handed over to Dali Temple.

Lu Qipei figured it out as soon as he turned his head, the Governor of Qingzhou was probably a member of the King of Chu, and he has been tossing so long today just to protect him.Knowing this, Lu Qipei immediately lost most of his interest, and said indifferently: "The evidence in this case is solid, what does Your Highness want?"

Seeing her like this, King Chu's anger suddenly rose again.Of course he knew that the evidence was convincing. If not, would he have been transferred to Dali Temple?Dali Temple is the most ruthless place!

Taking a deep breath, the King of Chu said with an ugly face, "I want you to protect him, Lu Shaoqing will not be unable to do so, right?"

Lu Qipei remained silent, staring at the white porcelain tea cup in front of him, as if he could see a flower from the tea cup.

Seeing this, the king of Chu became more and more angry, and finally couldn't help clenched his fist and slammed it on the case table with a "bang", glaring at Lu Qipei: "My son-in-law must think clearly, this king is not trying to bargain with you! You should understand, if you Qi Yang knows about your absurdity, and you, the son-in-law, will be the end of it. You think that betraying Qi Yang will make His Majesty and the Crown Prince disgusted, and you still have a future?!"

Lu Qipei finally raised his eyes, stared at the King of Chu silently for a while, and finally stood up with a flick of his sleeves: "Let's stop here for today. The evidence in this case is solid, Your Highness still needs to allow me to think about it."

She was contemptuous from beginning to end, but in the last sentence, she seemed to have compromised.

The King of Chu was still furious in his heart, but his face was a little pale, he snorted and said, "You better know the current affairs."
