That night, Zhang Dongsheng, escorted by the secret guards of the Prince's Mansion, came to Jingzhao Mansion and beat the Dengwen drum to surrender.
Because it involved the legitimate son of the eldest son of the imperial merchant Rong family, Mr. Yin Lin of Jingzhao Mansion interrogated Zhang Dongsheng overnight.
Zhang Dongsheng confessed in detail the whole process of the crime committed by himself and his eldest brother. He also took out a jade pendant with the word "Xu" engraved on it that he stole from his wallet that day as physical evidence, and declared that his eldest brother's condition suddenly worsened three days after he was beaten, and he was suspected of being beaten. Unfortunately, he died after the second injury.
With all the witnesses and evidence available, the Zhang Dongsheng brothers were found guilty of stealing and blackmailing, and Rong Xu was not guilty of malicious wounding. Mr. Lin had no choice but to declare Rong Xu innocent in court.
At the same time, Rong Xu expressed his understanding for what brother Zhang Dongsheng did under his father's hint.
Dajin law stipulates that in all non-criminal cases, as long as the suspect obtains the forgiveness of the victim, the penalty can be exempted or the punishment reduced. With Li Jingxing's mediation, Zhang Dongsheng was beaten twenty times and released in court.
After Rong Xu experienced this difficulty, he was not frightened, but became more stable and wise.
On the way home, Rong Xu couldn't help but ask: "Dad, is this kid being plotted by someone?"
Rongchang nodded and said, "Yes."
Rong Xu hesitated and said a title: "Second uncle?"
Rongchang said calmly: "Sir, don't talk nonsense without evidence. Just be aware of certain things."
The old man liked the concubine in his second wife's house more closely than he did his direct grandchildren.
Rong Xu lowered his eyes and said, "I understand, kid. I wonder who helped me this time?"
"Over there." Rongchang looked in the direction of the Prince's Mansion, "That's good, otherwise we would all suffer if your second uncle only has a backer."
Rong Xu understood that he was participating in the party struggle, but this was forced by the second room.
...
Zhang Dongsheng was brought back to the Prince's Mansion. Chiyang asked him what his plans were. He had seen Du Qing's superb martial arts and was very excited, so he decided to learn from Du Qing. Du Qing threw him to the secret guard brothers and slowly trained him. .
The next day, Li Jingxing's wedding leave ended. He had to go to court early every day, and after that he had to go to the etiquette department under his supervision for routine duties, so he didn't have so much time to stay at home.
But he didn't forget to send two men to Chiyang, one named Chang Lin and the other Chang'an.
On the third day, news came out that the eldest son and the second son of the Rong family were separated. Even the property was divided into two. However, the eldest son got 20% more. People who didn't know the inside story thought it was the eldest son who got more according to the custom. In fact, it was only 10%. It was given as usual, and the other 10% was given by the old man of the Rong family to compensate the big house.
The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh, and besides, he favored the second house, and no one was killed, so he used his property to appease the first house's resentment and anger.
However, despite this, the second wife is still unbalanced. If it were not for the rule that the eldest family inherits the family business, then the power of running the Rong Mansion belongs to their second wife. How can it be divided into two and a small head.
On the fourth day, Chiyang took Chang Lin and Chang An out.
She remembered that the day Eucommia ulmoides came to Beijing in her previous life was just recently, so she thought about going out to try her luck. Maybe she would take advantage of her like she met Baili Yan by chance. However, it was obvious that there was only one coincidence, not two.
It was already evening when she returned home. Wan Hong told her that when she left, Li Jinyan came to find her and waited for her to come back. After lunch, she returned to the palace.
Chiyang wondered: "The fourth princess waited until lunch before returning to the palace?"
Li Jinyan is not a patient person. According to her understanding, she can wait for her for half an hour at most.
Wan Hong chuckled softly and said: "The fourth princess got impatient after waiting for a while, so she wandered around the mansion. Later, she wandered into the yard of Mr. Yan. She stayed there for an hour. After lunch, she I stayed there for an hour and then left."
Chiyang twitched the corner of his mouth.
"That Mr. Yan didn't chase people away?"
She was kicked out every time she went to visit.
Speaking of this, Wanhong is even happier.
"Kicked away or not, Master, you also know that the fourth princess has always been very shameless."
In other words, thick skin.
Chiyang had nothing to say, that was really what happened.
It sounds like it's fate, but I don't know if it's a good fate or a bad fate.
"By the way, the fourth princess said she would come tomorrow and asked you to wait for her at home."
Li Jingxing came back very late. Chiyang lay on the bed and read his story book for a long time before entering the room.
"Father began to look for a candidate to lead the imperial army, and Guli recommended Shen Meng."
Chiyang couldn't help laughing: "Did you do it on purpose?"
Anyone recommended by several princes will most likely be on Li Zetian's blacklist.
She thought he would use some tricks, but she didn't expect that he would also play a conspiracy.
Li Jingxing replied while taking off his clothes: "It is indeed intentional."
Chiyang gave him a thumbs up.
[This dog is quite a thief! 】
Li Jingxing was displeased and turned his head to look at the lazy and casual girl on the bed.
Chiyang was wearing pajamas at this time. Because he was lying on the bed, his clothes were loose and he could vaguely see the lotus-colored bellyband inside. His Adam's apple rolled slightly and he asked casually: "How about giving me a legitimate son?" "
[The dog is in heat again! 】
Chiyang somersaulted and sat up, staring at Li Jingxing warily: "Your Highness promised not to force me!"
Seeing her repulsive expression, Li Jingxing's charming thoughts faded away, and he lay on his back on the outside, forcing himself to close his eyes and fall asleep. However, the unique fragrance of the girl next to him always floated into his nose, causing a ball of evil fire to gather in his lower abdomen. Can't go away.
He was just looking for trouble, having to sleep together even though he couldn't eat.
But the promise was made by himself. If he breaks his promise, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
Chiyang saw that he seemed uncomfortable, guessed what was going on, and said considerately: "How about I go and sleep on the couch?"
Li Jingxing didn't say anything. Chiyang thought he was acquiescing and stood up to get out of him.
When she was just above Li Jingxing, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed her waist and pushed her down. Unexpectedly, she had no time to resist and hit Li Jingxing's body hard.
There was a muffled groan!
Like pain, but also like pleasure.
Chiyang wanted to get angry, but she noticed something strange in his body. She was ashamed and annoyed, and didn't know what to do for a while.
"Don't leave!"
Li Jingxing's voice was extremely low and hoarse, and the suppressed emotions were about to burst out. Chiyang's heart trembled when he heard it, and he was worried that Li Jingxing couldn't help but force himself.
"How about I ask a maid to come in and serve you?"
[It’s just that you are not allowed to get close to my aunt from now on. 】
"No! Yes!" Li Jingxing gritted his teeth.
Chiyang was afraid of irritating him further, so she didn't dare to twist and struggle, and said in a discussion tone: "Your Highness, can you let go of me first? It's uncomfortable."
"no!"
Chiyang's patience ran out and he couldn't help but curse in his heart.
