Ma'am, your vest fell off again

Chapter 229 Persuasion
Yujin's eyes lit up, "Oh? There is such a thing?"

"Yeah, why don't I steal some of the medicine dregs back?"

"Of course, you should do it more covertly, and don't be discovered by others."

"Yes!"

……

Now Fu Xuanrong and Li Junhao have reconciled as before, and according to what she said before, she tried her best to win Liu Changze, the censor, but the most urgent thing is to take him to Liu's residence first.

"Princess Rong, you look thinner these two days, did that Yujin bully you?"

Fu Xuanrong nodded with red eyes, opened her eyes and said nonsense: "Yes, I have a bad relationship with the prince now, and she tries to keep me from going all day long."

"Then don't go back, stay with me for a few days."

"But I'm from Prince Li's Mansion after all, if I live here, outsiders will definitely talk about it indiscriminately."

Liu Yuan smiled purely, "It's okay, you are good at medicine, so I told others that I was sick, so please come and treat me, so that others will not dare to talk too much."

Fu Xuanrong's eyes lit up, "Yuan'er, you are so kind!"

This little girl really doesn't have much scheming, and her temperament is straightforward. If she can really be with Fu Zipei, she will definitely be a match made in heaven.

"Princess Rong and I don't have to be so polite, let's go, I'll take you to my room for a while."

"it is good."

Fu Xuanrong followed her to a small courtyard. Although the place is small, it is very elegant, "Princess Rong, this is the courtyard where I live. If you are not used to sleeping with others, there are several guest rooms next door. Tell someone to get it ready for you."

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you. By the way, isn't your father in the mansion today? I should pay a visit to him when I live with you."

"Daddy is in the study."

"Then I'd better go for a walk, and I'll ask you to clean up the room for me."

"it is good."

Fu Xuanrong was taken by the maid to Liu Changze's study room, she knocked on the door twice, and soon a voice came from inside, "Come in."

"Squeak~"

She pushed the door open, and Liu Changze was indeed sitting at the desk dealing with official documents. Seeing that it was Fu Xuanrong, he was obviously surprised, "Princess Rong? Why did you come here?"

Fu Xuanrong smiled impressively, "I hit it off with Yuan'er, so I've been bothering you at your house for a few days, I hope Lord Liu won't blame me for coming here uninvited."

"What's the matter, I haven't had time to thank you for giving me the needle before."

"Master Liu, you really don't have to be polite, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

"Well, sit down."

After all, the two had been officials in the same dynasty, so they didn't feel too embarrassed when they talked.

Fu Xuanrong held a cup of tea and sat on the stool, neither humble nor overbearing said: "I went to investigate the drought in Nanguang Town earlier, Master Liu must know about it?"

"I do know that this incident has caused a lot of trouble. Not only King Li was detained, but several officials involved in the incident also lost their black hats, and even the crown prince was reprimanded."

"Then my lord thinks, is it right or wrong for me to insist on going to investigate?"

"From the point of view of the common people, Master Rong's move is indeed benevolent and righteous, but from the point of view of the royal family, this move is too reckless, and almost put King Li in."

Fu Xuanrong smiled, "Your Excellency is wrong. In fact, I did not mean this matter, but King Li himself exposed it."

Liu Changze was quite surprised, "Li Wangming knew that he would be the target of public criticism after being exposed, why..."

"It's very simple, because he, like me, cares about the people. Mr. Liu has never been to Nanguang Town, so he may not know what's going on there. The street is deserted, and coffins are neatly placed on both sides. The corpses inside were all missing arms and legs, and some had their heads smashed into pieces."

"Hey, I've heard people say this. In this prosperous age, there are still common people killing each other and eating human flesh. It's really chilling."

"If it's really just because of the people's own problems, then there's nothing to be disappointed about, but it's the court that caused all of this. Even daring to covet life-saving money is enough to show that those officials are rotten to the bone. King Li has been wise and safe all these years. He has never openly opposed the prince, but after seeing the tragic scene in Nanguang Town, he disregarded himself and made up his mind to thoroughly investigate this matter."

Liu Changze put down the brush in his hand, "Master Rong came to me today, is it to be a lobbyist for King Li?"

Fu Xuanrong smiled, "Since Mr. Liu called me Mr. Rong, it means that he still regards me as a member of the imperial court. I have a clear distinction between public and private, and I will never influence my decision-making because of personal feelings. If King Li is a mud I don't bother to waste my time talking about a mediocre person who can't support the wall."

"This is true. I have been in the court for many years. If I say something that is not afraid of offending people, even if the prince sits on the throne, he may not be a good emperor. The emperor should care about the world and regard the people as his own, but he is still The crown prince can do this kind of embezzlement of disaster donations, but I don’t know what to do in the future.”

"That's the reason. Mr. Liu must have known about the Crown Prince recommending Zhang Shilang to the Ministry of War. What do you think of it?"

"Hmph, it's just a mob. Although the servant Zhang has made two military exploits, he is just a sack on weekdays. He hangs around behind the crown prince. He went to the Ministry of War, it's just nonsense!"

Fu Xuanrong nodded, "I also view this matter in the same way, so I came here today to ask for something."

"Your Excellency doesn't have to say anything about this matter, I won't agree."

"I didn't ask the adults to agree, but I have something to say to you."

"You said."

"Yuan'er is your only daughter, and she has always been regarded as the apple of your eye. She loves my brother, do you know this?"

Liu Changze frowned thickly, "What? Master Rong is planning to use my daughter as a threat?"

"My lord Liu is too worried. I have a close relationship with Yuan'er and treat her as my younger sister. If she can really marry my brother, I will be too happy. But I have already married King Li. If Yuan'er marries my brother, The Crown Prince will take it for granted that you have defected to King Li's faction, and you hold a lot of power in the court, what do you think he will do if he finds out about this?"

"You mean...he will strike first and ask the emperor to marry Yuan'er?!"

Fu Xuanrong's face was serious, "That's right, the crown prince is very powerful, and he can do anything for the throne. If Yuan'er really marries him, it will definitely end badly. Master Liu, Yuan'er doesn't have to marry my brother, or even Marry an ordinary commoner, but definitely not a prince!"

Liu Changze had never considered this matter before, but now that Fu Xuanrong mentioned it, he just felt terrified, "I will think about this matter carefully."

"Well, my lord, think about it for yourself, if there is anything I can help, you can just say, you are welcome, I have already been involved in this dispute, so I have no choice, but Yuan'er is so innocent, she does not It should be a pawn, let alone a victim."
