Chapter 157 A new situation
Cui Xiu didn't understand Li Qun before. She didn't know why Li Qun had to investigate the strange aspects of the salt affairs case. The salt affairs case had already been settled. Those who committed crimes were also punished.
The emperor doesn’t want to mention this matter anymore. After all, the people involved are his uncle and his maternal grandfather’s family.
Old Duke Xu’s reputation was implicated, but he was not convicted in the end. It can be said that the damage to Duke Xu’s mansion was very small.
But now Cui Xiu understands Li Qun better than him, because in Li Qun's view, his father cares about reputation the most, and even his life is not as important as reputation.
In the eyes of others, there was no conviction, but those false rumors had nailed Old Duke Xu to the pillar of shame. Li Qun saw with his own eyes that his father was tortured by the rumors to the point of depression, and finally died of depression.
Li Qun investigated the salt case because he wanted to clear the name of his father, Mr. Xu, and his family, Mr. Xu. However, they did not participate in the salt case and did not receive any benefits or fish out any profit.
In his life, his parents and family raised him once. If he could not fulfill his father's last wish, his life would be in vain.
"Li Qun, if you need anything, you can tell me."
"I will try my best to help you." Cui Xiu's eyes were very serious, and she did not stop Li Qun. Meaning, just like Li Qun didn't stop her ambition to be the Queen Mother.
In the last life, Li Qun's death was due to the salt affairs case, but that was the ending of the past. In this life, Cui Xiu had changed the beginning of the matter from the very beginning. Naturally, if the beginning changes, the ending will not remain the same.
As the saying goes, everything in the world affects the whole body with one move, and a hundred responses come from one move. Cui Xiu believes that Li Qun will not end up like the past this time.
Li Qun's eyes froze when he heard Cui Xiu's words. He thought that he had told Cui Xiu about this matter, and Cui Xiu would at least persuade him not to pursue this matter like others. past.
But Cui Xiu didn't. She knew what happened back then, and she didn't accuse him of "behaving like a good boy after getting benefits" like others. This was what warmed Li Qun's heart.
Cui Xiu caught the trance in Li Qun's eyes, and she explained: "What I want to do, you have to help me without saying a word."
"Then I will definitely help you with what you want to do."
"But there is one thing, I hope we can reach an agreement."
Cui Xiu Speaking of this, her eyes paused. She is a person who has lived a new life, so she will cherish this life more than ordinary people. Compared with living a good life, those so-called missions will seem thin.
“You only live this once, please cherish it.”
Li Qun heard Cui Xiu’s heartfelt words, and his understanding of Cui Xiu was refreshed again and again. At this time, Cui Xiu It was like someone who had seen their final outcome, with a serious expression that made him feel in a trance.
"I know in my heart that my life must not be lost before the big thing is accomplished."
"You should also take care of yourself in the palace."
At this moment, the two of them were talking about these heavy words. , they know that there will be a tough battle behind this.
None of them mentioned who the person behind the scenes was, but they all had a general idea in their hearts. In this land of Mingqi, there should be no one more powerful than that person to do this. The person behind the scenes.
"Li Qun, when your matter is over, I will give you good news." "So, you must not die."
Cui Xiu thought that just asking Li Qunzhen to pay attention was not enough, so she took out her chips.
She only hopes that when Li Qun encounters a desperate situation, his desire will be strong enough, and he will survive for this good news.
Surviving is a turning point.
When Li Qun heard the "good news", he had no clear direction in his mind and just aimlessly searched for the answer. Finally, he agreed to Cui Xiu's words and said: "Okay, I will definitely not die. ”
It was getting late, and Li Qun was about to leave. Before leaving, Li Qun clenched his fists to Cui Xiu and bowed, saying: "I will live up to your Majesty's expectations. When the matter is settled, I will lead my head to hear the good news from your Majesty." "
After Li Qun said that, he turned around and left without any hesitation. Cui Xiu looked at Li Qun's back. She stood up, with a more worried look on her face. It wasn't that she didn't believe Li Qun. She just believed in fate too much.
I hope God won’t play tricks on them this time.
The emperor decreed that Princess Wanning be demoted to a commoner, and she would not be able to enter Kyoto from now on. Li Qun secretly sent someone to pretend to be Princess Wanning, and left the city overnight without leaving. No matter how far, he lost his life.
From then on, there was no Princess Wanning in the world. There was only Li Qingrong, an ordinary woman living in another courtyard. She didn’t need to do anything. She just had to live well and write about what she knew. matter.
This is her daily life.
Li Qingrong wrote down a summary of what she knew. As for the princess's palace in Hezhou, Jiangnan, the emperor had sent someone to check it out. The emperor knew about the dungeon, so Li Qun's people had to hurry up. The emperor's people arrived in Hezhou before.
Li Qingrong specifically told Li Qun that there is no public key to the dungeon. The place is full of mechanisms, and ordinary people cannot find it or enter it.
Only the members of the royal family can open it, so she did not suggest that Li Qun break into the dungeon, because it would be time-consuming and labor-intensive and would also touch the locking mechanism. It was better to blend in with the people sent by the emperor.
Li Qun asked Dong Zuo and Dong You to bring a few people into the royal black guard. After arriving in the dungeon, the black guard's task was to take away a few people and kill the rest.
But among the few people the Black Guard wanted to take away, there was the person Dong Zuo and Dong You came to take back this time.
After Li Qun got the news, he asked Dong Zuo and Dong You to follow the team first so as not to disturb the black guards. After the arrangements were almost complete, he took action to replace them.
The emperor used the royal black guards to show that the escorts were not simple. At least they were useful to the emperor, otherwise the emperor would not have spent so much energy to bring them back.
Li Qun was worried that something had changed, so he rode out of the city overnight. He wanted to go there in person and see the man. If he could ask some questions, he would not have to leave the man's life in Kyoto. City.
Before leaving the city, he had arranged everything to guard against Mrs. Qiu and Li Cheng at home. Now something happened to Princess Wanning, and Li Cheng became single again, and Mrs. Qiu was very weak. He raised his head and went to find a marriage for Li Cheng.
For the time being, there was no time to pay close attention to Li Qun's troubles.
In the palace, it has been some time since the princes entered school. The master of the academy organized an assessment to test the princes’ homework.
Since the prince was demoted, the third prince's arrogance has become more and more powerful. He has to do everything before his brothers. The fifth prince is not willing to be inferior to others. The competition between the two of them has become fierce. The prologue began.
