Chapter 79 Moon(1/2)

So, just when the emperor could not wait for Pingling Jun and was about to issue an order to punish him, something big happened to Pingling.

Princess Danyang issued a letter of guilt on the last day of the former Pingling Jun Li Shan’s Day, accusing her of being unfaithful and unkind.

In the second year of Daxing, Li Shan made enemies and killed people because he seized power with Wei Wei. He strangled Sun Wei Wei, who was nearly fifty years old and had been loyal to the court for many years, and threw him to the cold palace. In the third year of Daxing, he wanted to seize the concubine Feng, and forced Feng to commit suicide. He did not think about his own mistakes, but instead killed all the people in the concubine's palace.

In the same year, Li Shan was unjustly killed Xu Xian's elder brother, which made his body cold and unable to return to the border. He collected 300,000 taels of wealth from the national treasury, and was the emperor in the practice palace. He was actually for himself, and hundreds of workers were exhausted. Some people reported the memorials, but they did not reach the emperor, and the person who reported the memorials were also killed. This led to the unfair customs of the court for many years.

The eldest princess asked, why can such a person enter the ancestral temple and receive three days of worship every year? The blood of the Li family shed on him is a shame to the Li family!

As soon as this lawsuit was released, the world was in an uproar. Not many people knew whether it was true or not, so they could only discuss it.

However, later, Li Fangwu, the son of Li Shan, personally confirmed that these are indeed facts.

He submitted a report to the emperor, saying that he would never go to the capital to worship his father again in the future, and only worshipped one or two at home to express his filial piety.

This decision seemed appropriate, both filial and sufficient reason not to go to Kyoto. The emperor could not surrender his unfilial crime and could not force him to leave Pingling.

But in this way, everyone in the world knew that Li Shan was a man who did many evil deeds, far less than what was praised in the book and recorded in history books.

Someone who was interested began to verify the matter in the confession letter and found that what the eldest princess said was true. According to her, she soon found the remains of Sun Weiwei in the cold palace.

The court was shaken, and countless memorials flew to the emperor's imperial case, demanding the revocation of the ancestral temple worship of Li Shan on three days a year.

Li Huailin sat alone on the soft couch in Longyan Palace, with the windows closed, and the shadows in the corner fell on his eyes.

"Your Majesty." Liu Yunlie came in and whispered, "It's already done."

The worship of the ancestral temple was decided by Li Huailin, and Liu Yunlie knew the reason. It was impossible to change it because of a few letters from the court officials. However... the eldest princess' move really caught them off guard. The posthumous majesty that he originally planned to give Li Shan would not be possible.

Li Huailin's voice was deep: "Are what the Emperor Sister said true?"

Liu Yunlie paused and shook his head and said, "Don't you know what the eldest princess is? After many years, I suddenly ran out to talk about these things. There must be interests behind it. Whether she said true or false is no longer important. What is important is to be careful and see what she wants to do."

Huailin shook his head: "I always feel that the emperor's move seems to be telling me that she did not kill Li Shan wrongly."

Liu Yunlie was silent.

He thought the eldest princess would not mention these old things again. After all, she was not a person who liked to cleanse her own crimes. When the King of Pingling passed away, she was in power and was already a powerful force. But she would rather spend her energy on Lu Jingxing than complain about her.

I don’t know who said that in the eyes of the eldest princess, fame is the least valuable thing.

So now, what happened that made her change her mind?

"How is my business doing?" Huaiyu happily held the construction map of the Qulinhe tributary canal and shook it in front of Lu Jingxing. "Is it profitable if I change a letter to another map?"

Lu Jingxing looked at her deeply: "I made a lot of money."

She has not gone out of the first-tier city, and no one is gossiping in her ears, so Huaiyu still doesn't know that there have been earth-shaking changes outside.

Not just earning a picture...

Lu Jingxing turned his head and looked out the window. Jiang Xuanjin was standing in the courtyard. The fox-haired cloak was blown slightly, and a jade crown was tied up in the ink hair. From a distance, he looked like a young master who was unknown to anyone, and he admired the world's romance.

"He asked you to write the letter of guilt?" Lu Jingxing asked in a low voice.

Huaiyu said "Huh" and raised his eyebrows: "How do you know it was his idea? But my word is ugly, so he directly asked Jiang Shen to write. The second young master Jiang is not good at writing other things. He is good at writing words and sentences, and writes old things into big cases that need to be remembered into historical books."

His eyes moved slightly, and Lu Jingxing pinched the cold fan bone for a while before he said, "He is intent."

"He is not a loss." Huaiyu said with her belly, "Pingling Jun's thank you gift is here today. The big boxes and big boxes are almost filled with my yard. It's really generous to take action. I believe that Pingling and Ziyang will have a lot of contact in the future."

Lu Jingxing raised his eyebrows: "I remember in the third year of Daxing, who did you refute the memorial, saying that too many exchanges between fiefs will not be beneficial to the country."

"Yes, but Li Shan didn't listen, and even Huailin didn't support him." Huai Yu shrugged, "Because Li Shan is a vassal king, he knew very well that the exchanges between fiefs were conducive to consolidating the vassal king's power. If he could share the same hatred with the vassal kings in various places, it would be enough to compete with the court."

Huailin felt that Li Shan was wholeheartedly doing his best. So now he should understand that Li Shan was also selfish back then. While supporting him, he also left a way out for himself.

It was also fate that made people beat her. Now she is on the way of Li Shanliu and is going to make things difficult for Huailin.

Taking a deep breath, Huaiyu felt a little bored, so she walked towards Lu Jing: "I want to go out for a walk."

Lu Jingxing shook his head firmly.

"Oh, I've been staying in the house for a whole day, will it be boring? The doctor said, I have to walk more to have the strength to have a baby!" Huaiyu raved his mouth and looked outside, "Today is still the Winter Flower Festival of the Northern Wei Dynasty. In previous years, we all had to go out to drink, right?"

Lu Jingxing pointed at her: "The day before yesterday, you went out and threw your hair away, which made her look for you for a while. When you came back, you didn't dare to move the ground at your door for three days. You are still outside the door. The day before yesterday, you went out and went to help someone grab purse with a big belly, which scared Juwu to death and alarmed the entire yamen. The thief who stole the purse thought he had stole a large stack of silver notes, but he recovered it and there were only three copper plates in the purse. Yesterday... you finally didn't go out, Chi Jin personally cooked and cooked hot pot to celebrate."

The previous few words made her face turn red, but at the end, Li Huaiyu became angry: "Don't you call me when you eat hot pot?!"

Lu Jingxing spread his hands: "You spare them and call you. Chi Jin dares to cook things at will? You have to prepare three days in advance."

Huaiyu was a little amused and irritated: "Don't I know my own belly? It's so solid. It's fine. It's fine if I've been in prison for so long, and it's fine if I've been bumpy all the way. How could I go to the street to eat something?"

After walking two steps forward to open the door, Lu Jingxing turned around and said, "If you want to be breathable, just stand here for a while."

He stood over reluctantly, took a breath of the cold wind outside, and Huaiyu curled his lips: "There is no fresh air on the street."

Lu Jingxing's forehead jumped straight, and said with a smile on his face: "You will just give it a try."

His eyes rolled, and Huaiyu suddenly said, "Let's do it, let's compete with the throwing pot. If I win, you will let me out. What? The throwing pot is what you are best at, and I have never won it once!"

Lu Jingxing narrowed his eyes: "I won, so stay in the mansion honestly?"

"Yeah!" Huaiyu nodded.

Jiang Xuanjin stood not far away and turned his back to them, but he could clearly hear the sound of the two people joking.

She said: "You have beaten me for five years. What's wrong with me standing nearly three steps than you?"

He said: "You are slashing your legs in these three steps? Standing by the pot is called throwing it? That is called putting it in!"

She was unhappy: "That... two steps?"

He sneered: "It's better for you to stay in the mansion."

Jiang Xuanjin didn't look back, and his dark eyes looked at the clouds in the distance in silence.

Chengxu frowned slightly and whispered: "Master, let's go back to the house? Ziyang has just sent many documents, but you haven't read them yet."

There was no reply, and the man in front of him was sitting alone, his thin lips pursed white.

The posture over there has been set up.

Li Huaiyu held three arrows and stood with Lu Jingxing with despair. The line was eight feet away from the pot. She glanced for a long time and looked at the direction of the wind and calculated the fortune. In the end, two arrows fell to nothing, and only one arrow penetrated into the mouth of the pot alone.

Her head drooped, she wrapped her tiger-skin cloak wrapped around her body, and curled her lips and said to Lu Jingxing: "Don't throw it away so accurately, can you?"

Lu Jingxing pinched the long arrow and turned around his fingers a few times, humming and laughing: "I can even throw it with my eyes closed, but it's too difficult to think about it."

"Then you just close your eyes." Huai Yushun went up, "Qingshirts, bring a piece of white brocade to cover your eyes for Manager Lu!"

Lu Jingxing: "..."

Qingsi did as he did, and he took Bai Jin helplessly and covered his eyes: "Your Highness is so persistent."

It’s not that he is confident. He can play the fun of a young man like the young man who is playing with a pot. He can win no matter who he compares with. Because he won’t miss an arrow.

Bai Jin covered her eyes and could see some light and shadows. Lu Jingxing stood up straight and threw the arrow.

Huaiyu was shocked. Look at her accurate head, she really wanted to win. Once she was shot, she wouldn't be able to go out!

She felt a little desperate, and she had already begun to consider whether to force her to break out of the mansion.

However, just as the arrow was about to fall into the mouth of the pot, a stone came across the sky, and with a sharp aura, it accurately hit the arrow.

As the direction tilted, the arrow fell to the ground with a "slap".

Unexpectedly, Lu Jingxing was surprised, lifted Bai Jin and looked at it, frowned: "Have you done something?"

Huaiyu stood beside him and shook her head innocently: "No."

While speaking, she glanced at the person standing on the other end of the courtyard.

Jiang Xuanjin didn't look at her, stared at the branches that had already faded in the flower bed. Her slender hands slowly closed and put them back into his fox-haired cloak.

Withdrew his gaze, Huaiyu smiled and pulled Bai Jin on Lu Jingxing's eyes: "You have two more chances."

Lu Jingxing was puzzled and looked at the place where the copper pot was placed again. After remembering it correctly, he covered it and threw his eyes on it.

With two snaps, two quasi-headed feather arrows fell on the ground not far from the copper pot.

After pulling Bai Jin, Lu Jingxing was dumbfounded. Li Huaiyu was so happy that he almost jumped up and clapped his hands and said, "Go to the street!"

"This is impossible." He couldn't figure it out, "Why didn't you enter?"

"You have your hands!" Huaiyu comforted him as if he didn't know anything, "Just practice more in the future."

After saying that, he cheered and walked out.

Lu Jingxing frowned and looked at the copper pot for a long time. Finally, he had no choice but to take his cloak and follow the steps of the man in front of him.

People from all over the Northern Wei Dynasty like camellia, so they set up a special Winter Flower Festival, which is planned to be the day when camellia blooms the most for people to enjoy the flowers. In a deserted place like the first-tier city, there has not been a Winter Flower Festival for several years. But this year it is different. Many new Luji Restaurants and Study Houses have opened in the city, and there are even music halls that open their doors to celebrate the festival.

The people have food to eat, and the river is about to flow again. Various happy events have added up, making the streets extremely lively.

Huaiyu looked at the people around him with bright eyes and sighed: "When we first came, there was only loess on the street here."

"Yes." Lu Jing walked beside her, blocking the surging crowd for her, "I'll give you the blessing of your highness, and live in the first-tier city."

I couldn't help but want to laugh, Huaiyu rubbed the corners of her mouth, trying to be more reserved, but she was really happy: "Princess Danyang has done good things."

Finally, she was not the only thing that people would say about the chaos. If the funeral was held again, even if someone still pointed at her coffin and scolded her, someone should be able to say a good word for her.

Danyang is actually a good person.
