Chapter 420 Return to the original owner
Liuli couldn't hold back anymore, she had to go back and tell King Dingbei about it!

Regardless of her pregnant belly, she immediately took Little Dulu and the others to bid farewell to Queen Mother Luo, and went straight back to the palace.

Walking to the second gate, Chunxiang came out to greet her, and said, "The old prince asked if the princess is back. If she is, let's go back to him."

While walking towards Rongxi Hall, Liuli said, "There's no need to look back, I'll go right away!"

She went straight into Rongxitang's study room. King Dingbei was bending over to cultivate soil in the flowerpot, and Xiangying was beside him supporting two Molan plants. The two talked a few words from time to time, looking very relaxed.The sound of saluting to Liuli at the door startled them all. King Dingbei raised his head, and Xiangying stepped aside silently.

Wang Dingbei said: "You came just in time, I have something for you."

Liuli said, "I'll give you the things later. My lord, I have something important to tell you."

King Dingbei washed his hands and went into the house while wiping his hands.

After entering the hall, Liuli waved everyone away, and said to Wang Dingbei: "My lord, Yun Hao is your own son!"

King Dingbei stopped the hand holding the tea and turned his face away, "What do you mean?"

Liu Li then said all that Empress Dowager Luo had said, and then said: "The Empress Dowager personally testifies that my mother-in-law and the first emperor are innocent, Princess Ye has never had any second thoughts about you, and Yun Hao is your and her flesh and blood!"

The teacup in King Dingbei's hand rolled down and fell to the ground with a loud bang.His eyes were wide open, his back was straight, he stood up half a day away, walked quickly to the door, and muttered in his mouth: "How is it possible? How is it possible?" Suddenly he turned around again, frowned and stared at Liuli, as if She is a stranger.

"That's what I saw with my own eyes..." Tears welled up in his eyes, but his tone began to be filled with uncertainty.

"Seeing is not necessarily believing." Liuli got up and said, "Besides, the prince didn't see any unsightly scenes at the time, did he? What if it was out of love and out of courtesy? The prince might as well think again, since the late emperor loved Ye The concubine is deeply affectionate. If you want to tarnish her, you don’t have to wait until you are around. You also know that Empress Yuanhui hates Concubine Ye. Why can’t she deliberately misunderstand you and use you to embarrass Concubine Ye? He is not stupid, he loves Princess Ye so much, could he really do something to hurt her after drinking two glasses of wine?"

King Dingbei staggered as soon as he retreated.

There were also tears in Liuli's eyes, she firmly believed in Queen Mother Luo's knowledge.Because she couldn't figure out why she would tell such a lie. Now that Emperor Xian and Concubine Ye are both dead, and she has become the supreme empress dowager, she can't change anything by telling such a lie. Besides, Liuli can see that she The sadness that comes out when telling these things is real.

King Dingbei sat dejectedly on the armchair without saying a word, and the whole room was plunged into sorrow and resentment.

Liuli suddenly felt a little regretful, wondering if it would be too cruel to tell him so directly.He had believed deeply for decades and hated the first emperor for decades, and suddenly he knew that the facts were not what he thought. This was a good thing, but the person he loved deeply could never come back.

"You go back first."

After a long silence, King Dingbei waved his hand.

Liuli backed out of the door silently, walked to the corridor and suddenly remembered that King Dingbei had said that he still had something to give her, when she turned around, she saw him with his hands on his knees, covering his face.

Liuli spent the night in anxiety.

After breakfast the next day, Chunxiang said that the prince was coming just as she was about to go through the door.

Liuli rushed out to greet him, and met King Dingbei in the corridor.

She deliberately looked at his expression, only to see that he was very calm, and the sadness of yesterday was gone.

"Hurry up and make the prince's favorite Lu'an melon slices." She told Rui'er.She laughed with him and said, "Sit in the prince's room." She lacked fatherly love since she was a child, and she had already regarded King Dingbei as her father.I was afraid that he would not be able to bear the shock, so I wanted to comfort him.

King Dingbei entered the main hall and sat down, took the tea poured by Rui'er, and handed Liuli a few books in his hand, "These books and land deeds belong to your mother-in-law, and the government is about to be divided. It should be given to you too."

Only then did Liuli realize that he asked her to go to the study yesterday just to hand over these things to her!

"This, why don't you send it in person?" She suddenly felt a little sorry.I feel even more guilty about my own recklessness yesterday, "Yesterday, my daughter-in-law was reckless, please don't blame me, my lord."

King Dingbei remained silent, and said for a long time: "Actually, I have already thought about this possibility, because Hao'er's temper is too much like mine, but I am still stubborn and unwilling to believe the explanation of the late emperor. If I must say something wrong, The biggest fault was still mine."

After hearing this, Liuli was both happy and uneasy, "Did the lord believe it?"

He said with a smile: "Of course I believe it. Maybe I believed it from the moment Peiyin insisted on giving birth to Hao'er, but I kept deceiving myself because of my lack of self-confidence. Now that the Queen Mother is personally testifying, what reason do I have?" Continue to pretend to be confused? Pei Yin will be innocent until death, and I am the one who is dirty."

Liuli sighed deeply.She also believed in King Dingbei's words.According to Mei's explanation, he actually still had a deep affection for Qi Yunhao when he was a child, but it was only because of Mei's estrangement that they had a rift with each other, and he has been withholding Princess Ye's real estate deed and not giving it to him. It's also reluctant that he can't move to the branch office, right?From this point of view, he probably really believed that Qi Yunhao was his child.

She wondered if she should tell Qi Yunhao the ups and downs of the inside story?If she told him, it would only add another embarrassment to his rough mental journey, so she decided not to tell.Sometimes there are some things, it is actually happier to keep in the dark than to know everything.

After Qi Yunhao returned to the mansion, Liuli showed him all the land deeds, and after silently looking at them, he handed them over to Liuli.He didn't ask, but Liuli was also relieved.

But no matter what, King Dingbei was still depressed for a few days, Qi Yunhao also noticed the abnormality, and asked Liuli while eating.Liuli thought for a while, and said, "Maybe it's because I'm too lonely. Now that I'm suddenly free, it's inevitable that I'll be a little bored."

Qi Yunhao blurted out: "Isn't Xiangying accompanying him?"

Liuli laughed and said: "Xiangying is just a roommate, and she can't chat for a day, so how can she be regarded as companion?"

Qi Yunhao thought for a while, then fell silent.

After all, Liuli couldn't bear to see King Dingbei like this, so she asked Qi Mulan to go to the study to play chess with him when she was free.Maybe Qi Yunhao didn't give up, these days he always called Qi Yunke to come over for dinner, and then he naturally invited King Dingbei to come over.

Liuli thinks that this is also good, enjoying the family happiness of his children can somewhat soothe his sadness.

Because Mu Shi is pregnant, she can eat now, Liuli has a companion, and her life is more comfortable.

The eastern suburbs will be fully completed next month.All the employees on duty in each department have been personally recruited by Jin Xuan and are undergoing intensive training.

The teacher hired was Li Hong recommended by Nie Jue. Liuli had never met him, but Qi Yunhao said that he was very sincere.Later, when Lu Shi held a banquet at the Chenjiang Prince's Mansion, he greeted Liuli once. In front of everyone, he didn't talk about Lu Wanzhen again, and Liuli didn't give her the opportunity to talk about it.

But afterwards, I asked Yuegui to inquire about it quietly. It turned out that Lu Wanzhen still insisted on marrying Li Hong. Lu had no choice but to lock her up for a while, and the news spread among relatives and friends, so she had to call Li Hong in again to discuss the matter. How to do this.Lu's idea was to let Li Hong go to court to find a decent official position and then marry Lu Wanzhen, but because of his arrogant attitude, the meeting broke up unhappy.

Lu Wanzhen felt that Lu was trying to make things difficult, so she burst into tears every day.Lu had no choice but to invite Li Hong into the mansion again, and discussed with him in a friendly manner.Li Hong's heart was for Lu Wanzhen, and he couldn't bear her to suffer like this, so he slowed down his attitude and made an appointment for the marriage last month.

However, because of Li Hong's practical and patient teaching in the eastern suburbs, he won a lot of goodwill from Qi Yunhao and Nie Jue.Now the two are considering whether to step in to help this favor.

After hearing Yuegui's words, Liuli pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Even if Lu Wanzhen and Li Hong get married, they may not be able to live a happy life in the future because of the presence of Lu's mother-in-law." : "Even if Mrs. Lu doesn't make trouble, this Li Hong is arrogant. If he wants to marry someone else's daughter, he won't even bow his head. Lu Wanzhen will suffer." Shut up.

Yuegui didn't care about these things, she just said: "Our lord is planning to find an errand for Li Hong, won't the princess ask?"

Liuli said: "Don't ask. Song Bi will definitely return to his post in the future. Li Hong is his student, even if we don't pull him out, he will also recover in the future. Instead of letting others do it, it's better for us to give it to him killed him."

Laurel nodded.

Not long after Liuli finished speaking, Shuhua came into the mansion.

It was just a visit to see her and the child, but Liuli was thinking about Song Pi's matter, so she dismissed Huang Momo and the others and asked, "Does Song Pi have a letter?"

Shuhua was silent, and said: "My father-in-law sent a letter a few days ago, saying that not long ago, a visitor from the capital went to check the agriculture, mulberry and water conservancy under his jurisdiction, and he left after staying for three days. He suspected that it was the Holy Majesty The imperial envoys specially sent to Weifu specially told us to be more careful in what we say and do in daily life, so as not to provoke disputes."

Liuli thought for a while, Song Bi is a talented person, and when Lu Zhao is in need of manpower, it is not impossible to miss him.But because I didn't receive the news, I couldn't say anything to Shuhua, so I just told him: "Whether he is an imperial envoy or not, since the Holy Spirit has sent him to be a parent official, he should always remember to benefit the people and be practical in governing. Don't Don't overthink it."

Shuhua sighed: "We thought so too. Ziyu wrote to him yesterday, firstly to let him take care of his health, and secondly, to persuade him."
