In the Gyeonggi camp, recruit training is in full swing.

Li Chengyun participated in the training during the day, and listened to the report of the capital by the dark guard at night.Perhaps no one thought that Qi Ji's old case would involve a major corruption case.

When he walked into the camp, most of the people were already lying on their beds and fast asleep.

Su Qin admired: "We are all exhausted to death, but the prince is not tired. If you didn't train with us, I would suspect that you are actually slacking off."

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I have long been used to this amount of training."

"My lord, can I ask you some advice some other day?"

As soon as Su Qin's words fell, Wang Luochen said first: "As far as you are doing, you should beat me first before talking about it."

"Wang Luochen, stop looking down on me."

Immediately, the two started arguing, and there was a faint tendency to fight.

Li Chengyun conveniently covered him with the quilt that Li Chengzhe had kicked away, and secretly said: Sure enough, they are all very tired, the two people over there are making noise, and these few people can still sleep so deeply.

"You two, stop arguing and rest." Li Chengyun said calmly.

For an instant, the two fell silent.

Li Jiu blew out the candle lamp.

On the other side, Luo Yichang was frowning alone in the study.

Mrs. Luo glanced at the night outside, and asked the people around her again: "What time is it? Master is still in the study?"

"Returning to Madam, it's already Haishi. I heard from Xiao Zhuzi that the master has been alone in the study after dinner."

Mrs. Luo thought about it, and went to the study in the front yard to persuade Luo Yichang to rest.

Luo Yichang sighed softly and told his wife the matter. "There was a flood in Jiangxi three years ago, and the imperial court distributed a total of nearly one million taels of relief money."

"Master, what does this matter have to do with you?" Mrs. Luo asked nervously.

"Liu Yaozu, the magistrate of Yuzhang, is my protégé. I was deceived by him three years ago and urged the Ministry of Households for disaster relief money on his behalf."

"Is Liu Yaozu greedy?" Mrs. Luo was shocked, she remembered Liu Yaozu.In her memory, that person was Fang Jie and upright.

"Now only the bottom layer has been investigated, but Liu Yaozu should be greedy too. Some people threatened me with this, telling Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice not to investigate further. If they continue to investigate, they will also involve me in it and will be wronged. I take bribes."

"What! Who threatened the master?"

"I don't know who it is. When I returned home today, this letter was in the carriage. I asked Lao Jin who was driving the carriage, and he said that he didn't see anyone approaching the carriage."

Luo Yichang showed the letter to Mrs. Luo.Mrs. Luo saw that it was indeed a threatening letter.

"Madam, do you still remember the big corruption case 15 years ago? Beheaded, exiled, the Holy Majesty punished almost half of the officialdom, even the current prime minister did not escape."

Mrs. Luo nodded, "At that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne, and he was extremely disgusted with corruption. In addition, the treasury was empty, so all corrupt officials were severely punished."

"Madam is right. Even today, our emperor cannot tolerate corruption."

"These black-hearted people, I don't know what they will do to frame the master. Master, what should I do?"

Luo Yichang let out a long sigh, and said: "I can only enter the palace and report the whole story to the emperor. As for the result, I can only resign myself to fate."

Mrs. Luo slumped on the chair with a pale face, "Since Xiaoyu is about to get married, how could such a thing happen?"

Luo Yichang suddenly thought of something, and suddenly realized: "This case is related to Qi Ji's case, and the emperor attaches great importance to it. The people behind this should know that I can't control it, but he still came to me. In fact, he was looking for the prince. help."

"My lord is still in Gyeonggi camp, how can I help?"

"Ma'am, send someone to call Xiaoyu over. He is a smart boy, and he will soon become the princess of the county again. Let's discuss it with him."

"Why don't we discuss it tomorrow?" Mrs. Luo hesitated, not wanting Luo Chengyu to worry.

"The night is long and there are many dreams. I can't delay it. Ma'am, this is related to the lives of our whole family."

Mrs. Luo pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Luo Chengyu had already rested, and after being woken up by the maid, she hurriedly changed her clothes and went to the study.

"Father, mother, what happened?"

Luo Yichang explained the matter concisely, and showed the letter to Luo Chengyu.

Luo Chengyu quickly understood, "The person behind it wants the prince to intercede with the emperor, so that this matter will end here."

"Exactly." Luo Yichang nodded.

"Father, mother, please allow me to think carefully." Luo Chengyu didn't want Li Chengyun to be involved.

Luo Yichang said, "Xiao Yu, this matter is life-threatening."

"I understand." Luo Chengyu lowered his eyes, "I want to ask the prince first."

"it is good."

After Luo Chengyu resigned, he let out a long sigh, and sent someone to the county prince's mansion early the next morning to deliver a message.

Li Chengyun received the news that Luo Chengyu wanted to see him in the Gyeonggi camp, so he hurriedly took a leave of absence and left the camp to meet him.

Luo Chengyu's brows and eyes were filled with indelible sadness, and he repeated what his father told him.

Li Chengyun knew that Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice were investigating corruption cases, and also knew that many officials in the court were involved in the case, but what he didn't expect was that there was a shadow of his prospective father-in-law, and his future father-in-law was threatened.

"My lord, I don't believe my father would take bribes, he was just being used."

Li Chengyun narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself, I am afraid that his future father-in-law will be implicated by him.

"Chengyu, don't worry. Leave this matter to me, and I will send someone to investigate. As long as uncle has never done anything wrong, no one can wrong him."

Luo Chengyu nodded slightly.

Seeing his depressed state, Li Chengyun felt distressed.

He thought for a while and said, "I'm a little hungry. Come with me for dinner, okay?"

"Ah."

Li Chengyun deliberately chose a restaurant by the Yu River.

Sitting by the window on the second floor facing the river, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while tasting delicious food.

After the shop assistant brought out the shop's signature dishes, Li Chengyun kept serving Luo Chengyu dishes, urging him to eat more.

Luo Chengyu could see clearly that Li Chengyun was not hungry, but worried about him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, and ate a lot of the dishes Li Chengyun had picked up.

Seeing his brows stretched, Li Chengyun finally felt relieved, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.

When paying the bill, the waiter smiled and said, "The guest officer at that table has already settled the bill for you two."

Hearing this, both Li Chengyun and Luo Chengyu looked in the direction pointed by the waiter, and looked at each other behind.

Li Chengyun glanced at the plates on the table and asked, "Xiao Er, how much is the total?"

The shop clerk replied, "It's always money."

Li Chengyun nodded, knowing it well.

"Chengyu, sit here and wait for me." After speaking, he walked towards Yan Hengrui.

Yan Hengrui got up and bowed, "I have seen the county prince."

"You don't have to be polite, Prince Yan." In the original plot, they were rivals in love.Now, Yan Hengrui took the initiative to make friends, but Li Chengyun only wanted to keep the water in the water.

"To tell you the truth, Prince Yan, the one who shared lunch with me today is my daughter-in-law who has never been married. It's not that I don't appreciate it, but that this meal should not be paid for by others. Please don't blame me, Prince Yan." Li Chengyun said and put down A bar of broken silver.

Yan Hengrui's eyes touched the broken silver, the corner of his mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, and then he said with a smile: "Your Highness, you are welcome, I am here to wish you and Mr. Luo a happy life together."

"Thank you." Li Chengyun nodded, turned around and walked back.

Luo Chengyu got up and left the restaurant with Li Chengyun.

He worriedly reminded Li Chengyun: "Uncle Zhongyong's residence seems to be low-key these years, but every time there are various banquets, people from his uncle's residence can always be seen. Looking closely, this doesn't seem like a low-key way of doing things."

"It's not easy to not be absent from the party and not to be a leader in everything." Li Chengyun thought to himself: My wife is so careful and smart.

According to the original plot, Uncle Zhongyong and his sons are the confidantes of the third prince, and they will have meritorious deeds in the future.

Luo Chengyu pursed her lips, and asked in a low voice: "Will the prince blame me for talking too much?"

"Chengyu is willing to tell me these things, I'm so happy that I'm too late. With such a virtuous wife, what more can I ask for."

Luo Chengyu slightly bent his eyebrows and eyes, like a beautiful figure coming from the sun on catwalks.

Li Chengyun looked at him, unconsciously staring blankly again.
