Chapter 143: Arrests

Seeing the inscription of the Chinese character, Li Rong immediately laughed.
When meeting Pei Wenxuan, it was naturally impossible for Hua Le to make an appointment. After all, she was a princess, and it was impossible for her to surrender her status.
What Hua Le had in her heart was marrying a nobleman like Su Rongqing wholeheartedly, and it was impossible to catch Pei Wenxuan's eyes. Then Hua Le helped to meet with another girl from their Xiao family now in Huajing, Xiao Wei, Roufei's niece.
This Xiao Wei is the youngest daughter of Concubine Roux's brother Xiao Su. Concubine Roux had just appointed her concubine when she was born, so she loved her very much. At that time, the Xiao family was already in a pretty good family situation, and this daughter was trained according to everybody's lady. The etiquette of piano, chess, calligraphy, calligraphy, poetry and calligraphy are all invited by top teachers, who are not inferior to the ladies of the family.
In addition to being beautiful and docile and knowledgeable, the more terrifying thing about Xiao Wei lies in his grasp of men. It is said that few men who have been in contact with her alone dislike her.
All in all, this is a perfect female color created by Rou Fei.
Li Rong remembered that Xiao Wei was one of the four concubines of Li Chuan in the previous life. Li Chuan respected her because of her identity, but she couldn’t see her feminine charm. Later, when Li Chuan ascended the throne, the Xiao family was implicated. She was condemned for rebellion, and she also hung a white silk on the beam of the harem.
After entering Li Chuan's harem, Li Chuan's stance problem caused Li Chuan to stay away from her early, which was a waste of her talents.
Originally thinking about what she might do in this life, she chose Pei Wenxuan in the end?
Will pick.
Li Rong's face was calm, Wen looked carefully, Li Rong smiled, and returned the letter to Wen: "Thank you for the old lady who came here to tell me this. However, I have already reconciled with the same article," Li Rong sighed. He sighed, "I can't control it."
"What can't you control?" Wen said blankly, "You are a princess."
Li Rong couldn't laugh or cry: "Even if I'm a princess, don't I also announce and leave with me? Old lady, please go back, come and sit when you have time."
With that said, Li Rong sent someone to send Wen out, and Wen was blankly holding the greeting note in his hand: "Then this post?"
"Just give it to the literature."
Li Rong smiled sincerely: "He will solve it himself."
If the solution is not good, she will solve it with him.
Li Rong sent Wen out of the house, and turned her face cold. Seeing that Li Rong's face was not good, Jinglan asked anxiously, "His Royal Highness, should we do Xiao Wei?"
"What makes her a girl embarrassing?"
Li Rong's voice was flat, and Jinglan was just as Li Rong was forgotten, so she heard Li Rong turn around: "Let Pei Wenxuan come over to admit her mistake at night."
Jinglan: "???"
The sentence "What did the horse do wrong" was held in his chest, and after enduring it, he finally turned into a "Oh".
After Pei Wenxuan and General Li Chuan finished talking, they just returned to the government office and got a message from Concubine Rou. Pei Wenxuan hurried over, and after entering the Supervision Department, he saw Concubine Rou eagerly greet him to sit down.
"Master Pei is here," Concubine Rou poured her tea and said earnestly, "Sit down."
Pei Wenxuan respectfully saluted, and Concubine Rou personally served Pei Wenxuan tea, and Pei Wenxuan hurriedly thanked him, and Concubine Rou had a chat with Pei Wenxuan before sitting down and saying: "I have troubled Master Pei to run around recently, Master Pei has lost a lot of money. "
"Doing things for the empress is what the propaganda should do."
"I came here this time to discuss something with Master Pei."
Concubine Roux looked at Pei Wenxuan's expression. There was no ups and downs on Pei Wenxuan's face, but she said: "Please say the empress."
"The imperial examination case involves too many people, and it can't be handled for a while. I think it's not a good thing to drag the imperial examination like this. I want to trouble Master Pei and talk to the remaining scholars."
Pei Wenxuan paused with the teacup in his hand. He raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Roux. Concubine Roux smiled and said: "Let them directly participate in the imperial examination first. I will do a batch of the case, and then take care of the rest slowly. how is it?"
Pei Wenxuan did not speak, Concubine Rou shook the ball fan, and then said, "Of course, they also wasted a lot of time in Huajing. In order to compensate, each person gave them fifty taels of silver. How about?"
Concubine Rou's words were explicit, and Pei Wenxuan also heard Concubine Rou's meaning from the beginning.
Concubine Rou only intends to deal with cases related to the prince's side, and she intends to save the rest. Now I want him to be a lobbyist, to "appease" those scholars who have not been rehabilitated, threaten them with the future, and perhaps even grant them both gold and silver, grace and power to shut up these people.
If they agree not to pursue the case, these scholars can participate in the imperial examinations, examinations, and official positions, and get fifty taels of silver.
Fifty taels of silver, placed in the countryside, may be a lifetime expense for a family, and it is indeed a lot for these scholars who will be discounted.
Concubine Rou was a little nervous seeing Pei Wenxuan not speaking. Pei Wenxuan thought about it and laughed: "Everything will be done according to the mother's wishes. I will talk to those scholars tomorrow."
"It could not be better."
Concubine Rou was happy and hurriedly offered tea: "These days are too troublesome for Master Pei. I am here to replace wine with tea. Thank you Master Pei."
"You Niangniang."
Pei Wenxuan also offered tea in return. Seeing that Pei Wenxuan seemed to be thinking about tomorrow's affairs, Concubine Roux thought for a while, and tentatively said: "Master Pei has been peaceful and happy for some time. These days, living alone, can you feel bitter and cold?"
When Pei Wenxuan heard Concubine Roux’s words, she looked up at her. Seeing that Concubine Pei Wenxuan looked suspicious, she laughed: "My niece, Weier, is knowledgeable, talented and beautiful. I have always wanted to help her in Huajing. I am looking for a good son-in-law, but I am not very satisfied. Now I am making friends with Master Pei, and I think Dae Pei has both virtues and talents. I just want to be a matchmaker. I wonder if Master Pei has time today..."
"The empress is too worried." Pei Wenxuan hurriedly said, "Now that Wenxuan has just reconciled, whether it is for the royal family's face or his own reputation, it is not convenient to talk about marriage immediately.
"Then you can see you first." Seeing Pei Wenxuan's refusal, Rou Fei continued without feeling embarrassed, "Today Hua Le has handed her a post into your mansion. See you, and then reply to me."
Concubine Rou was very tough, and Pei Wenxuan couldn't refuse any more. Pei Wenxuan smiled, and only said: "Yes. However, there is still one important thing that the Weichen has not finished today. After it is finished, the Weichen will go back to the house and reply to Miss Xiao."
"That couldn't be better."
After Concubine Rou had finished speaking, Pei Wenxuan stood up and said goodbye. Concubine Rou sent him out of the Supervisory Department. Before leaving, she personally helped Pei Wenxuan count the people, and asked him to arrest the last Shangguan-related official.
Pei Wenxuan led the people and left the Supervisory Department mightily.
As soon as he stepped out of the Supervisory Department, Pei Wenxuan became cold. Tong Ye hurriedly stepped forward and said anxiously: "My son, you really want to see Miss Xiao? You want to see, where can your Highness explain?"
"What do you see?" Pei Wenxuan sneered, "She is unkind and I am unrighteous. She dares to give me a woman. She wants me to die!"
"It's not that serious..."
Tong Ye whispered, Pei Wenxuan drove the people forward across the street and grabbed the reins: "She sent the post into the house. According to her mother’s recent temperament, she must find a way to intercept the post. Can I read the post by myself? Turn around and I have to send it to the princess mansion."
Pei Wenxuan became more and more angry: "What kind of prudent person is your Highness, you don't know?"
"Then I don't blame you for this."
Tong Ye was inexplicable, and Pei Wenxuan choked, suddenly feeling a little sad: "She never blames other women, only me."
Child industry: "..."
Pei Wenxuan led Tong Ye to speak, and turned the corner of the street. Tong Ye suddenly felt that something was wrong. Pei Wenxuan took this road, and it seemed that it was not where they were going.
Tong Ye realized that, and everyone else realized that they looked at each other, and Tong Ye first asked: "My lord, where are we going?"
"Niangniang said that this case will not be handled afterwards," Pei Wenxuan returned calmly, "Then I have to help Niangniang catch a big fish today."
Everyone got the answer, with a little calm in their hearts, Pei Wenxuan led the people to the mansion of Wang Houwen, the official secretary, and a group of people stood up and dismounted, blocking the palace strictly.
"The official came to arrest the suspect Wang Houwen on the order of the concubine and empress," Pei Wenxuan stood in front of a group of people and said coldly, "Hand over the people!"
Seeing this posture, Wang Jiading immediately asked Jiading to stand in front of the door, and at the same time went to Wang Houwen.
Wang Houwen was teasing birds at home. Hearing Jiading's report, he sneered: "Lady Roufei is so greedy. I don't do anything with the money. There are no rules at all. I really think I am a soft persimmon?"
"Then..." Jiading hesitated, "What should I do now?"
"Go to the Criminal Department," Wang Houwen waved his hand, "Looking for Su Shi Lang, said that Pei Wenxuan had committed crimes, broke into private houses, beat the court order officer, and asked him to come over and take the people back."
"Does the lord want to see Pei Wenxuan now?"
Jia Ding was a little nervous, Wang Houwen glanced at Jia Ding with the look of a fool: "Little bunny, do you deserve to let me meet?"
As he said, Wang Houwen put down the bird cage: "I'll go to sleep, he was taken away by Su Rongqing, then call me."
Wang Houwen walked slowly into the bedroom.
Pei Wenxuan stood at the door and waited for a while. The gate of the palace opened slowly. The butler of the palace led the people out of the courtyard and said respectfully: "Master Pei."
"who are you?"
"Wang Quan, the steward of the next palace, is here to send a message to the adults. My family is going to bed now, and it is inconvenient to meet guests. I hope the adults will forgive me."
Hearing this, Pei Wenxuan laughed: "Sleep? As an official secretary, he instructed the officials to converge money and change the number of candidates. How many poor students have studied hard for a lifetime, only to be ruined by your adult. Now. Can he still sleep now?!"
"Master Pei," Wang Quan's expression turned cold, "you have to speak with evidence."
"Evidence?" Pei Wenxuan sneered, "Let me go to the Supervisory Department, right or wrong, and Empress Roufei will naturally give him an arbitration! You let him come out now," Pei Wenxuan lowered his voice, "Otherwise, just It's rude to blame."
"Master Pei wants to be rude, who can stop it?"
Wang Quan laughed: "You take it easy."
After speaking, Wang Quan rolled up his sleeves, put his back behind him, and walked in toward the gate.
Pei Wenxuan lowered his head and laughed, then raised his eyes and said calmly: "Rush in."
The person next to him was stunned. Pei Wenxuan glanced at Tong Ye and said coldly: "Isn't it possible to hit the door and arrest someone?"
Tong Ye reacted immediately and yelled: "Chong!"
Then he drew his knife and rushed towards the palace with someone.
Wang Quan turned his head in surprise and saw Pei Wenxuan quietly watching him in the crowd.
He is dressed in a red official uniform, with his hands folded in his sleeves, his eyes are not stable like a young man.
This kind of stability gave people invisible confidence. The inspectors were a little scared at first, but seeing that Pei Wenxuan had always been calm as before, he was relieved for a while.
Seeing that the guard broke through the gate of the palace, Pei Wenxuan finally moved his steps and stepped in.
He stepped into the courtyard amidst chaos, calmly entered, and then to the backyard of the palace, to the door of the master bedroom.
Wang Houwen was still asleep, he heard a loud noise at the door, and then the soldiers rushed in and dragged him out of bed.
When Wang Houwen saw Pei Wenxuan standing at the door, he was shocked and angry, and yelled, "Lazier dare!"
"Master Wang," Pei Wenxuan respectfully saluted, "Of course he would not dare to subordinate officials. However, the subordinate official is the concubine Rou concubine, and Concubine Rou concubine said that you are the official secretary, and you need to investigate it anyway. In the imperial examination case, you are too dereliction of duty. It is better for her second uncle to be organized."
"This ignorant woman insults me!"
Wang Houwen struggled to get up, and the guard immediately suppressed him. Pei Wenxuan stepped forward, squatted down, and patted Wang Houwen on the shoulder: "You are wronged first, and when you arrive at the Supervision Department, I will redress your grievances."
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Wenxuan heard a gentle voice with a bit of coldness behind him: "Who are you going to take to the inspectorate?"
Pei Wenxuan squatted and turned around, and Su Rongqing stood at the door. He stared at him with no surprises.
When Wang Houwen saw Su Rongqing rushing over, he hurriedly said: "Su Shilang, come on, he actually trespassed into the official mansion, and he treated me like this, Su Shilang, take him away quickly!"
Su Rongqing walked to Wang Houwen and helped Wang Houwen up.
"Master Wang, you rest first."
As Su Rongqing said, people helped Wang Houwen who was overwhelmed to leave.
Su Rongqing and Pei Wenxuan were left in the room for a while, and Pei Wenxuan stood up on his feet, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "I know that at this time, Su Shilang just comes early and late, and will come after all."
"Following offenses, forcibly breaking into private houses, and assaulting court orders."
Su Rongqing raised her eyes to Pei Wenxuan: "Pei Wenxuan, you have committed a felony."
"Master Su, I was ordered by Concubine Rou to do things for Concubine Rou."
Pei Wenxuan raised his hand, arching his hand toward the palace, full of arrogance: "Does Master Su, don't you even listen to the orders of Concubine Roux?"
"Take it!"
Su Rongqing shouted loudly, and the people from the Criminal Ministry immediately stepped forward, and the people from the Supervisory Department immediately stood in front of Pei Wenxuan. The two sides confronted each other. Su Rongqing stared at Pei Wenxuan: "Master Pei, this is not even the law of Daxia. In the eyes, are you blatantly resisting arrest?"
"Master Su is serious."
Pei Wenxuan put his hands in front of him and said with a smile: "It's just that I didn't act on orders, so what's the crime? If you are guilty, Master Su should go to the palace and send the Concubine Rou into the criminal department first."
"Do it."
Su Rongqing didn't intend to talk to him more, turned around and walked to the door.
When the two parties saw it, they were about to fight, and Pei Wenxuan suddenly raised his hand: "Okay, I'm afraid of you, then grab it."
Pei Wenxuan pushed aside the crowd and stretched out her hand. Su Rongqing turned her head and looked at Pei Wenxuan. Pei Wenxuan raised her eyebrows: "But I want to see, Master Su sent me to the Penalty Department. I can be locked for a few days."
"Then it depends on my mood."
Su Rongqing finished speaking, then turned and left.
Pei Wenxuan looked at Su Rongqing's back, and said loudly: "Wait, Concubine Rou will come to rescue me! Your Royal Highness Su won't watch me get into trouble! Just watch!"
His voice was loud, and everyone in the yard was listening.
Su Rongqing whispered to the side: "Got his mouth."
After speaking, Su Rongqing went out.
Pei Wenxuan brought an iron chain in his hand and was dragged out. He walked arrogantly and said, "Lady Roufei..."
Before he finished speaking, a ball of cloth was stuffed into his mouth.
"Shut up you."
Su Zhizhu uttered fiercely, Pei Wenxuan blinked, and continued to "woo woo", faintly audible the four words "rou concubine empress".
When the Wang family was in a mess, Li Rong took a bath in the room, smoked incense, and put on a light makeup, waiting for Pei Wenxuan to come back tonight to apologize.
She wondered what requirements to make at that time, and after thinking about it, she laughed out loud.
Just halfway through the smile, I heard hurried footsteps outside.
Li Rong turned her head to see Jingmei standing at the door panting.
"What's the matter?" Li Rong smiled and leaned on the dressing table, "Come on?"
"No, it's not."
Jingmei shook her head: "The consort can't come."
Li Rong frowned: "Why can't you come?"
"Puppet horse, puppet horse," Jingmei swallowed, calming her breath, "Taunted by Shi Lang Su!"
Li Rong was surprised, she wanted to turn off for a moment: "Su Rongqing found out that he came to me?"
After so many years, would Su Rongqing still manage to be so generous?
"No, no," Jingmei didn't expect Li Rong to think about this, and quickly corrected it. "The messenger entered the Wang's house and dragged Wang Shangshu off the bed. Wang Shangshu sent someone to the Criminal Ministry to report the case, and Su Shilang went to People caught!"
Li Rong was stunned. After a while, she jumped up and immediately said, "Quickly, go into the palace!"
