I ran all the way back to Li's house and was told that Li Hui and his wife had entered the palace.
Li Yue was at home with Li Heng, Li Tian, and Li Huai. Yan Yixin was not there either. It was said that he had gone out to inquire for information.
Under such circumstances, Wen Tian didn't take much with him and hurried towards the palace again.
He didn't realize until he reached the door that he couldn't get in. Although he had a rank, he was not of a rank enough to go in and out of the palace often, unless arranged by the wolf head. Just as he was running around anxiously, Luozi came out to report the news.
"Master Wen, don't worry, my uncle and aunt are both in the imperial study, the two masters of the Xiao family are here, and Grandpa Pang is also here."
With these people present, Li Hui and his wife would naturally be fine, but he was still worried and asked:
"Is any of them injured?"
"You don't believe me, or you don't believe yourself?"
Before Luozi could answer, Langshou stood behind Wen Tian at some unknown time. This made him tremble violently, and he stood vigilantly beside Luozi. It had been a long time since he had neglected to take precautions because of his anxiety. Li Hui was
The family really trapped him.
When Luozi saw Commander Chen coming over, he bowed his hands and turned around to go back.
With the two of them left outside the palace gate, Wen Tian asked directly——
"I want to go into the palace and have a look. Take me in."
"What can you do if you go in? Can you testify about things that happened more than 20 years ago?"
"I……"
"I'm sorry, they will be fine inside. Just go back and wait for the wedding."
After Wolf Head finished speaking, he turned around to leave, but was grabbed by him.
"Let me explain clearly, what is 'eating happiness'? Whose happiness is eating?"
"Of course that's Mrs. Li's happiness! You can go back and you'll find out when the letter comes."
Langshou opened his hand and strode into the palace. Wen Tian stood at the door for a long time and finally figured out what was going on.
The night before he entered the royal garden to set up the examination room, Li Hui told him about Yu's life experience and told him to take extra precautions for fear that someone would go in and silence him. Given the situation at that time, he wanted to let Yu rest at home.
He didn't want to go out, but he knew how she felt about her children, so his persuasion was in vain, so he could only be careful and guard against it.
The Xiao family simply had other arrangements. Now that the two of them are in the Imperial Study Room, their identities should be different. To say that Li Hui is really lucky. He has a daughter-in-law who is a relative of the emperor. This kind of destiny cannot be compared to ordinary people.
At the same time, in the royal study room, Cheng Xue connected all the fragments of his original memory, finished speaking in an eloquent manner, and knelt down on the ground exhausted.
Li Hui felt distressed and hugged the person in his arms. He didn't have any memory. It seems that his parents knew that he only cared about studying and nothing else, so they didn't mention the past to him.
Of course, this approach is correct. After all, the fewer people know the truth, the better.
Yan Yunchen, who was sitting on the throne, had long been furious after hearing this, and now it was so painful to see his grown-up sister-in-law recalling the past, not to mention not encouraging at all.
"Bang!" he slammed down the table, and immediately wanted to copy the Su and Gu families, but Mr. Pang felt it was inappropriate and stepped forward to dissuade him.
"Your Majesty, calm down. Your Majesty wants to clear up the grievances of the Cheng family. It is good, but it cannot be true. As the saying goes, 'There is no rule without rules.' Although the evidence of the mistakes committed by the Su and Gu families has been confirmed, they still have to be handed over to the Third Council.
The clan government will also be involved in the trial, after all, the Su family had befriended the mother-in-law of the former King of Jin at that time."
After overthrowing the previous dynasty, Yan Yunchen did not kill them all. King Jin was the ninth prince of the previous dynasty. He was only two years old when the previous dynasty fell. He was given the title of prince in name only and was raised like that.
The account book submitted contained the name of the Queen Mother of Jin, but not the King of Jin. Although he could not be punished, his mother made a mistake, and as the only son, he had to be present, which gave him an excuse to weaken her.
When he was a child, he could be more liberal. Now that he is an adult, who can guarantee that he has no second thoughts? It is a kindness to keep him alive, and we must not let a tiger become a problem.
Cheng Xue didn't care about this. She had already done everything she could for the Cheng family. As for the compensation for the title, she had discussed it with Li Hui and they had a tacit understanding that no one was going to ask for it. She could do it with her own efforts.
Yan Yunchen was afraid of becoming bigger and stronger, and the gains outweighed the losses.
What's more important is that Cheng Xue knows what kind of character she is. Once she has the title of County Lord, Princess Princess, etc., she has to attend many banquets even if she doesn't want to. She doesn't want to do that, so naturally she is not prepared to ask for these things.
As expected, Yan Yunchen proposed that compensation would be given after the trial, but Cheng Xue refused. She saw the anxious expressions of the three Xiao family masters, but she had made up her mind and would not change it.
"...I hope the Holy One can respect my decision. The Cheng family has been destroyed. I, a woman from the Li family, cannot support the Cheng family, so I'd better let the dead pass away."
"Why! You have to know, your eldest sister..."
Cheng Xue boldly interrupted Yan Yunchen's next words and kowtowed respectfully:
"My wife was still young back then, and I don't remember many of the things my eldest sister said. But now I am an adult, and I know what I want and what I should do. Now I am just the daughter-in-law of the Li family, the mother of four children.
A woman just wants a harmonious family and her children are safe and healthy, and that’s enough.”
Seeing her being so determined, Yan Yunchen didn't feel happy at all, but instead felt sad.
After all, this sister-in-law didn't believe him, didn't believe he really wanted to be ordinary for the Cheng family, and really wanted to seek justice for the Cheng family.
"Are you sure you don't want to be banned? Based on the things your eldest sister has done, it is more than enough for you to be crowned a second-grade princess."
"My wife, thank you for your love, Your Majesty."
After another polite refusal, Yan Yunchen no longer insisted and just waved his hand to let the couple leave first.
After Li Hui half-hugged the person out of the royal study, he directly picked him up by the waist and strode out of the palace gate. Two eunuchs followed behind. It was not convenient for the two of them to talk, so no one said a word.
Then he left the palace and got on the carriage.
Wen Tian had been waiting in the car, and when he saw him coming out with Cheng Xue in his arms, he wondered:
"What's wrong, sister-in-law is injured?"
Cheng Xue shook her head and replied weakly:
"I'm fine. I'm just thinking about what happened in the past and my body can't bear it."
"It's better to find an imperial doctor to take a look. I'm not worried about your health." Li Hui suggested worriedly.
No one can imagine the position Cheng Xue holds in his heart. Once this person leaves first, he will never live alone. In the past, his comrades often mentioned those novels about cultivating immortals, time travel, and cities, etc., in which veterans counterattacked one by one, how awesome they are.
But after he actually came here, he realized that those were just fabrications to pass the time.
Without Xueer to accompany him, he would be unable to move forward at all. He also has to take care of his family, find money to raise his children, study and be busy with scientific examinations. How can one person do these things? Nonsense!
