The Grand Princess

Li Rong didn't say anything when she heard this. Seeing what she seemed to be thinking, Pei Wenxuan couldn't help but say, "Your Highness?"

Li Rong thought for a while, and suddenly said, "In fact, you killed Hongde, right?"

Pei Wenxuan paused, and just as he was about to explain, Li Rong pressed a fan to his shoulder.

"Actually, you don't have to say more, I don't care. Now that you tell me your bottom line," Li Rong smiled, "I don't care much, just tell me next time."

Pei Wenxuan stood stiffly on the spot, and it took a long time to answer: "His Royal Highness said yes."

Li Rong didn't speak, she looked at him quietly.

She suddenly discovered that in the face of feelings, both she and Pei Wenxuan seemed to have returned to their 20s.

At that time she was a little girl, able to act like a baby, and willful.

At that time, Pei Wenxuan, he was still burdened with the anxiety and anxiety brought about by the accusations from his youth.

He was afraid that he was not the best self in front of her, and he was also afraid that she would see her dirty and nasty side.

Li Rong couldn't help laughing. She turned around, holding her hands behind her back: "Pei Wenxuan, black and white are in my eyes."

"But you want to satisfy my dream-like expectations," Li Rong thought for a while, "I also feel quite happy."

After speaking, Li Rong waved her hand: "I'm back."

Pei Wenxuan looked at her back. The girl walked on the promenade, holding the fan with both hands behind her back. The red tassels on the fan swayed gently with her movements. She briskly jumped up the steps in three steps and two steps, smart and fresh. live.

Li Rong rarely looks like this in front of others.

She has a thousand faces. Facing Li Ming, she is the eldest daughter with arrogance and cleverness. To the others, she is the decisive Highness Pingle. It is in front of him that she is like a piece of melting ice. A flower blooms quietly.

He looked at her happy and couldn't help laughing.

Watching Li Rong go away, he turned his head and went back to the bedroom by himself.

After waking up the next day, it was time to officially confirm the official transfer.

Generally speaking, the officials set for the assessment period are rarely changed, so the so-called final confirmation is nothing more than Li Ming's confirmation of the list. If there are officials who need to be replaced, they can be mentioned separately.

Li Ming hastily glanced at the confirmed list, then raised his eyes to everyone: "Do you have any objections to the list of personnel transfers this year?"

Just after Li Ming asked, Su Rongqing seemed to have been prepared, so he walked out directly.

"Su Aiqing?" Li Ming frowned, "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty," Su Rongqing knelt down and reverently said, "We are very talented and have little qualifications. Since taking office as Shangshu recently, he has been struggling, but he feels that he is not worthy. There is one Shangshu from the Criminal Ministry. Please choose him!"

Hearing this, Li Rong looked up at Su Rongqing.

Taking the initiative to send out the Shangshu from the Criminal Ministry was definitely not what he was willing to do, but after such a big event, Li Ming seized the handle to make Su Rongqing voluntarily withdraw from the competition for the Shangshu from the Criminal Ministry.

It's just that Su Rongqing is not the official book of the Criminal Department, so who will come?

Li Rong patrolled the court for a while, and listened to Li Ming said calmly: "Since Su Aiqing resigns herself, I am not embarrassed. Let's go..."

Li Mingsichen, after a long time, he slowly said: "The position of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is empty. The affairs of the Criminal Department are negotiated by the left and right servants. If they are uncertain, they will directly report to me. What does Su Shilang think?"

Reporting directly to him would be equivalent to Li Ming's direct jurisdiction over the Ministry of Criminal Affairs. Su Minzhi frowned. Just as he was about to speak, he listened to Su Rongqing respectfully saying, "Your Majesty Shengming."

"Okay." Li Ming nodded and continued, "Do you have any other opinions?"

When the people in the court did not speak, Li Ming knew that the matter was finalized. He closed the list and said indifferently: "Let’s do it. From today on, everyone will report to their respective transferred places according to the list. Be prepared for reception. In addition, there is also the reconstruction of the memorial hall, and the Ministry of Ritual is also taking time to prepare. Before the reconstruction of the memorial hall, in order not to delay political affairs, I plan to build a small cabinet to assume responsibility for the previous memorial hall. Responsibilities, review the classified memorials for me, and share my worries."

Li Ming said, without waiting for others to speak, he just said: "Pei Nayan, Su Xiang, Prime Minister Shangguan, Ning Guohou, I will trouble the four in the future. I will take some time every day to help me divide the trial. If you are busy with affairs, adults. , Then tell me in advance, and I can make other arrangements."

The memorial hall was originally set up by the family to contain Li Ming. Now the memorial hall has been burned. Li Ming built a separate memorial hall called the "cabinet". No matter how busy at this time, no one would say no.

The four named ministers stepped forward to salute. These four people almost included all the people of different factions in the entire court. They were fair, so no one said anything.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Ming continued: "However, the ministers are also extremely busy on weekdays. In addition to extremely grown-ups, there may be some people who will fill in, but this will be discussed later."

When Li Rong heard this, she knew Li Ming's plan.

Today's so-called "cabinet", the most important personnel are not at all the four ministers named today, but the people who later filled in. After all, these four people are all high-ranking, and they are busy with daily affairs. The affairs of the memorial hall are actually some coolies. The papers are divided into priorities and different types to reduce the pressure of Li Ming's approval of the papers.

If there is no memorial hall, Li Ming can't hold it. Now that the chores in the memorial hall are entrusted to these important ministers, can they handle it?

It’s just that although the memorial hall is coolie, it is really important to master the first entry procedure of the zhezi, so no one is willing to delegate power. After waiting for the later, in fact, the approval of zhezi will inevitably fall into the "fill" In the hands of these people.

So whoever fills it up is of utmost importance.

Thinking about it, Li Rong turned her gaze to Su Rongqing. At this point, she somewhat guessed the ultimate purpose of Su Rongqing's burning of the memorial hall.

A memorial hall that can be monitored by Pei Wenxuan is worse than a cabinet that can pave the way for King Su.

Li Rong thought, listening to Li Ming and the minister talking about the establishment of this small cabinet. After waiting for the next court, Li Rong walked outside the palace and got on the carriage. Pei Wenxuan was waiting for her. She couldn't help laughing: "Going down together, why did you go so fast?"

"Weichen has long legs." Pei Wenxuan poured tea for Li Rong and said with a smile, "Since I can't walk shoulder to shoulder, I want to come in and wait for your Highness."

"Dog stuff can really talk."

Li Rong said something to him like a smile, turned around and sat down, serving Pei Wenxuan's tea, and then said: "I didn't mention the imperial examinations today."

"There are too many things today," Pei Wenxuan took a sip of tea and said slowly, "You wait, there will be a decree coming down soon."

Li Rong listened to Pei Wenxuan's meaning and thought about it: "Who did you give this imperial edict first?"

"Let's do it," Pei Wenxuan raised his eyes to look at her, "I bet on two games with Your Highness."

"What are you betting on?" Li Rong raised her eyebrows, and Pei Wenxuan thought for a while, "First of all betting on the first imperial edict, who is it for?"

"Secondly, bet on our imperial decree and what is it."

"Okay," Li Rong replied decisively, "what about the bet?"

"What does your Highness want?"

When Li Rong heard this question, she didn't know what she wanted for a while. Pei Wenxuan was used to indulging her, as if there was nothing to bet on.

Seeing that Li Rong couldn't figure it out, Pei Wenxuan said, "Then I owe your Royal Highness something. Whenever your Royal Highness thinks about what you want, just come to me to exchange it."

"Then you are not at a disadvantage?"

"You have to beat me first."

"Okay." Li Rong nodded, "What about you? What do you want?"

Pei Wenxuan gave a light cough, turned his head, put his hands on his knees, and seemed a little embarrassed: "Cough, that..."

"Ok?"

"I haven't seen your Highness go out for many years."

"Do you want to hang out with me?"

Li Rong laughed: "It's easy to say."

"Well, I remember going out with His Royal Highness back then. His Royal Highness saw Persian dancers dancing and became very interested. The weather was hot that day, and there were many merchants in the city..."

"Say the key point." Li Rong interrupted him directly, and Pei Wenxuan couldn't make it up anymore, turned his head and said directly, "I bought a set of clothes, according to your size, I know your Royal Highness can dance."

Li Rong: "..."

Pei Wen proclaimed his words, put his hands in his sleeves, his ears were red, but he still said in a serious manner: "Your Royal Highness gamble or not?"

Li Rong didn't speak, she looked at Pei Wenxuan interestingly, looking from top to bottom, and from bottom to top, her eyes seemed to have substance, as if they were detecting something.

Pei Wenxuan stiffened, letting her look at it, as if an old monk had entered his mind, calmly.

"Your Highness?"

Pei Wenxuan saw Li Rong not speaking for a long time and couldn't help but urged. Li Rong sneered, raised Erlang's legs, and leaned on the small table diagonally. The phoenix eyes glanced diagonally as if they could hook people, and smiled happily. Deep and long: "Okay."

Pei Wenxuan took a cup of tea from the side and analyzed calmly: "After the incident last night, your majesty will definitely think carefully. From your majesty's perspective, the thing that can be confirmed is the Hongde incident. It is indeed a collusion arrangement between Roufei and the Su family. There is a decree for Concubine Rou."

"And there are three things left. Your Majesty can't confirm. The first is whether Hongde identified Su Rongqing, the second is who set the fire in the memorial hall, and the third is whether the majesty has colluded with the prince in private. Therefore, your Majesty now has a high probability of hitting 50 boards. He withdrew the position of Su Rongqing Shangshu, and we have not been dealt with yet, but this deal will inevitably come, so there is a decree for me or your Highness."

Pei Wenxuan raised his eyes: "Weichen gamble, the imperial edict will come to us first."

"Why?" Li Rong supported his head and looked at him.

"Intuition, where's your highness?"

"Then I'll bet it to Concubine Roux first." Li Rong swayed gently with her cocked feet, and then poked out from her skirt. The red brocade shoes embroidered with white pear blossoms flickered in front of Pei Wenxuan. Wen Xuan couldn't help but look over, Li Rong noticed, raised her eyes and looked over: "What are you looking at?"

Pei Wenxuan was caught upright, so he closed his eyes and chuckled, "Nothing."

After the two returned to the princess mansion together, Pei Wenxuan walked straight to his yard, Li Rong chased in, as if arguing, pulling Pei Wenxuan into the inner courtyard.

After entering the inner courtyard, they were determined to be their own people. The two talents finally returned to normal. Li Rong sat on the edge of the small table. Pei Wenxuan went to change his official clothes. After they came out, the two set the chess table. While talking, while waiting for the imperial edict.

According to their expectations, the imperial edict will come sooner or later, but it's just a matter of who came.

Before the two of them played a game of chess, Jing Lan stepped in. She respectfully saluted, and then said: "Your Highness, there is news from the palace."

"Ok?"

"Said Rou concubine collided with your majesty last night, and now she has been taken the position of noble concubine and has been reduced to Rou concubine."

When Li Rong got this, she smiled and raised her eyes, and looked at Pei Wenxuan: "I won."

"Isn't there another round?"

Pei Wenxuan lowered his head: "May I lose?"

"I can't win anyway," Li Rong waved to Jinglan, and Jinglan stepped back. Li Rong raised her eyes, "What to bet on next?"

"Your Majesty punishes Concubine Rou, what do you say he will punish us?"

Pei Wenxuan held the chess piece and knocked on the edge of the chess table. The chess piece hit the chess table with a crisp sound. Li Rong was attracted by the sound and couldn't help but look at the sound source.

The young man's fingers were slender and clean, with well-defined joints, and his nails were trimmed to be neat and clean. The appearance of a chess piece between his fingers was very beautiful.

"What he pays attention to is'checks and balances.' He has already cut Su Rongqing's position as a scholar, and now you have not moved your position as a servant, then the position of my supervisory department may not be preserved."

Li Rong smiled: "I guess he is going to move the inspectorate."

"It's too early to move the Supervisory Division at this time. As soon as you leave, people from the family will be able to demolish the Supervisory Division. He shouldn't move."

"So?"

Li Rong played chess and said, "What do you think he will move?"

"The news from the palace last night said that Concubine Rou and your Majesty seemed to be crying and making trouble in the room last night," Pei Wenxuan's voice was very soft, "I guess the curse comes from the harem, so maybe it's your Highness," Pei Wen Xuan raised his head with a smile, "I'm going to cut money."

Upon hearing this, Li Rong's face changed, and she hurriedly said, "It would be better for them to demolish the Supervisory Department."

Since doing big things, money has panicked, and if Li Ming still cuts money, she really doesn't want to do it.

Pei Wenxuan was amused by her sudden change of face, pursed her lips and smiled: "The result hasn't come out yet. Don't panic first. What if you don't touch your money?"

"If you don't touch money, you have to touch power. After all, it's not good. Now I also hope that Concubine Rou and Su Rongqing can fall out soon," Li Rong sighed and looked at Pei Wenxuan, "I will live up to your hard work. It's also very hard."

Pei Wenxuan smiled and refused, only reminding: "It's time for you to settle down."

The two played against each other for a long time. Seeing that it was going to night, the people in the palace finally rushed over, Xuan Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong took the order.

The two looked at each other, and Li Rong whispered: "Here."

After speaking, the two stood up, each dressed in official uniforms, and led everyone to the door to accept the order.

When the two saw the Chuanji eunuch, they greeted for a while, and then knelt down. The **** opened the **** and began to announce today's results.

Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan are waiting to see if Li Ming intends to ask for their money or their rights.

They waited with trepidation, when they heard Li Ming start the article and exaggerate Pei Wen first.

Both of them were a little bit confused, and couldn't help but glance at each other.

Then Li Ming praised Li Rong again.

They were even more panicked, and they couldn't figure out what Li Ming was. Do they plan to let them go?

At the end, they finally heard the key sentence: "Of course, even if the man is talented and the girl looks, he is jealous of the marriage. The two people have different personalities, and the marriage is unsustainable. Special permission from Pei's propaganda and separation..."

And away.

Li Rong was stunned for a moment when she heard this word, she couldn't help but look at Pei Wenxuan.

And away? ?

Pei Wenxuan was also a little confused, but he motioned Li Rong to calm down with his eyes.

The two of you took a look at me, I took a look at you, hesitated for a long time, and finally accepted the order.

When returning to the room with the imperial edict, Li Rong couldn't help but ask: "Is this over?"

Pei Wenxuan laughed lowly, knowing what she meant, and standing behind her, smilingly said: "Yes, Your Highness, you didn't lose your money or your rights, you just lost people."

"Punma is just talking nonsense," Li Rong was afraid that Pei Wenxuan would think too much, and quickly turned her head and put her hand on his waist. "People are here. As long as you don't want to run, you can't lose your decree."

Pei Wenxuan smiled without saying a word, Li Rong thought for a while, stood on tiptoe, and whispered: "Besides, Master Pei doesn't think that the ex-wife night party is very exciting?"

Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan smiled and turned his gaze to her: "Is it irritating, Weichen doesn't know. But His Royal Highness looks very excited. Weichen knows this."

Li Rong was a little embarrassed by him, and coughed slightly, "Not so excited..."

Pei Wenxuan smiled meaningfully. After a while, he reminded softly: "It doesn't matter if you are happy in the house, you still have to put on a dress outside."

"I understand." Li Rong gave him a sly look, "I have a count."

On the night when the imperial decree came down, Pei Wenxuan packed his bags and left the princess mansion, looking as if he didn't want to stay for a moment.

Li Rong chased Pei Wenxuan out of the princess mansion and stood at the door for a quarter of an hour.

On the second day, Li Rong and Pei Wenxuan left, and Pei Wenxuan moved back to Pei's house. Li Rong chased Pei Wenxuan's carriage and ran across the street, crying and begging him to come back. The news spread throughout the court.

Everyone didn't believe it, but when they saw Li Rong's swollen eyes on the second day, most of them still believed a little bit.

God knows how much effort Li Rong has made to swell these eyes.

She quietly ate a large bowl of noodles made by a Shudi chef in the house in the middle of the night.

While eating and crying, it was so spicy that the whole body was comfortable and full of pleasure.

The whole court suddenly felt a little sympathy for Li Rong. When the court went down, Li Chuan finally couldn't help it. He sneaked to the princess mansion in private, trying to comfort Li Rong.

At this time Li Rong was lying on the rocking chair, rolling his eyes with eggs. Li Chuan moved a small stool and squatted on her side to comfort him in a low voice, "Sister, don’t be too sad, Brother Pei must have his own plan. , You will get married again in the future."

Li Rong ignored him and continued to roll the eggs. Seeing Li Rong, Li Chuan didn’t want to say anything. He guessed that Li Rong was aggrieved badly, and continued: "I know you like him, otherwise your temperament would not be able to chase a carriage down the street, but speaking of it. , Sister, you are very physically strong..."

"Hold on." Li Rong raised her hand to stop Li Chuan's words. She took off the egg and cried and swollen eyes to Li Chuan, "Who chased the carriage down the street?"

"You." Li Chuan said quite rightly, "Everyone knows."

Li Rong was a little at a loss, and Li Chuan continued to comfort: "Heli is better than two people having trouble, don't be sad..."

"I'm not sad." Li Rong frowned, slapped Li Chuan's hand on the shoulder that Li Chuan wanted to pat her shoulder, rolled over, closed his eyes and prepared to rest, "I am very happy."

Wouldn't she be happy if she didn't cut her money or her officials?

On the other side, Hua Le Zhengyi and Rou Fei talked about the scene of Li Rong chasing the carriage and crying, and said happily: "You don’t know, I don’t believe it, but then people in the whole court all saw Pingle’s eyes crying. Now, I believe it. Mother, you are still taller."

Hua Le gave a thumbs up: "To attack the people and the heart, since Pei Wenxuan is now making peace for the sake of power, according to Li Rong's temper, I am afraid that he can't tolerate him in his heart. Only Li Rong, where is his mother's opponent?"

After listening to Hua Le's words, Concubine Rou smiled, although she did not agree, she did not deny it.

After being pressed and beaten by Li Rong for so long, she finally let out a sigh of relief from being deprived of the power of coordinating the sixth house to now being reduced to a soft girl.

She knew that Li Rong couldn't bear Pei Wenxuan, so Li Ming wanted to punish Li Rong's money, so she stopped and persuaded Li Ming, or to prevent Pei Wenxuan and Li Rong from being unwilling to join forces.

Now that Li Rong was crying like this, she finally felt much better.

Sure enough, in Li Rong's heart, men are still more important than power and money.

This is the biggest difference between them and the basis for her victory.

She Xiao Rou doesn't care about men.

She was so cruel.
