The next day, Xue Shao personally visited General Su to find the evidence of Li Wu's past crimes, saying that he did not deal with Li Wu for no reason, and in order to be safe, he specially found Cui Ningqian and his wife. Pei Lingniang had also heard about this and knew the purpose of Xue Shao's trip.

She knew the ins and outs of this matter, and eighty percent of the Li family thought that Cui Chenyu's marriage to Siniang was premeditated and wanted to oppose her... Maybe this hunting matter was also calculated by Lu Qingrong and them, and it happened that the younger generations of the clan came to visit, and she learned about Li Wu and the Xue family, so she instigated Xiao Li's family and conspired with others to do so, so as to return the color to Qingrong and a few people. Therefore, Pei Lingniang took the initiative to agree to enter the palace to testify for Qingrong.

Pei Lingniang's reputation and personality are well-known among the officials and relatives, so under all kinds of evidence, what is going on is very clear.

Li Wu dared to openly take the lead in violating discipline in the army, ran rampant in the army, bullied the weak, delayed the military situation several times, and caused the soldiers to die... All of this is because of the Li family's protection, so it has not reached the heavens. Xue Shaohui dealt with Li Wu because he was drunk and disorderly on the way back from the bandits, and behaved badly. Xue Shaocai cut first and then disposed of Li Wu. And afterwards, the Li family would not pursue it, also because they wanted to calm things down and protect Li Wu's reputation. But now it's the other way around, and he's suing the emperor... As for Qingrong, it was even more unprovoked to be rumored.

Therefore, Li Jin allowed Qingrong to leave the palace on the same day, cured Li Sui for the crime of bullying the king, and dismissed Li Sui and Xiao Li's husband from office. As for Xu Lingxiu, because there is no ironclad evidence to prove the truth of what Xu Lingxiu said, Li Jin only verbally beat him and did not punish him.

When Qingrong heard the news, his heart, which had been hanging for several days, fell to the ground in a flash. Not only because she got rid of her crimes, but also because Xue Shao. For this reason alone, Qingrong felt that he was worthy of his own belief in the end...

As for Li Jin, Qingrong hasn't seen him again in the past few days... It's good if she can't see it, Qingrong can't help but secretly think, although she has never said it, she is more or less aware of Li Jin's thoughts.

Before she left the palace, the queen deliberately left her to speak, and she asked: "Before you return, do you want to go to greet Concubine Xian?" ”

Qingrong was silent for a moment, and she didn't know if Concubine Xian knew about this, but she supposedly knew... But he never showed up. At this time, it's inconvenient to be too public, and I still don't plan to go in order to avoid suspicion. "Concubine Xian's body has only been good for a long time, so I won't bother you."

But these words were heard in the queen's ears, but they didn't mean anything, she nodded, and said, "Well, there will always be a chance in the future." At the end, she also ordered the female official Song to personally send Qingrong out of the palace.

On the way, the female official Song stopped, took out a waist card, and handed it to Qingrong: "Madam, this is the waist card that His Royal Highness ordered to reward Madame, and Madame can enter and leave the palace without an edict with this waist card." ”

Qingrong glanced at the bronze medal held by Lady Song in her hand, her heart shook slightly, she looked at Lady Song tentatively again, and saw that the other party nodded at herself with a smile, she dared to reach out to take it, but she couldn't stop thinking in her heart, what does the queen mean by this? Did you see that you have made your position clear, and you have already made other arrangements?

Lady Song seemed to see through her thoughts, and explained with a smile: "This is His Royal Highness's heart, if the lady has something to enter the palace to meet His Royal Highness or has a token to present, you can use this card." His Royal Highness also said that if the lady speaks, the officials and others should not be lazy. ”

Qingrong rubbed this waist card lightly with her fingers, it seemed to be a reward, I don't know what the purpose behind this is, she paused, and said with a smile: "Please also ask Ah Jian to thank His Highness on my behalf." ”

"Madame, I have followed His Highness for so many years, and I have never been so concerned about that Madame by His Highness. Madame is the first person to have this special encounter in addition to His Royal Highness's mother's family, which shows that His Royal Highness treats Madame with kindness. ”

Qingrong was a little speechless for a while, and smiled reluctantly, "Your Highness is good, I naturally understand in my heart, but how can I be virtuous?" "Although the queen is like this with a purpose, from the first time she saw her to the present, she has indeed treated herself well.

Lady Song smiled unhurriedly: "Where do you start with this?" Madame has its own merits, I and others are soft-spoken, if you can share your Highness's worries and relieve your labor, it can be regarded as living up to Your Highness's favor, what does Madame think? ”

Qingrong looked at the female official Song who was usually quiet and silent, and when she spoke, she also pointed out everywhere. Qingrong responded with a smile: "Thank you for the reminder." ”

Lady Song nodded, "Then the maid will be sent here, Madame go slowly." ”

Qingrong left in silence, just that, since she couldn't figure out the queen's plan, she didn't think about it first, so why bother asking for trouble.

……

Ah Zhen did not follow Qingrong into the palace, as soon as she heard the news that Qingrong had come back and had arrived at the door of the mansion, she hurriedly informed Xue Shao in the house. As soon as Xue Shao heard the news, he stood up stiffly, and strode to the door to greet Qingrong.

Ah Zhen saw that he was in a hurry, so he had to trot to keep up, but who knew that Xue Shao turned back from the front again, and did not forget to command loudly: "Prepare water to wash!" ”

Ah Zhen's eyes widened, Ah Lang couldn't take care of his appearance these days, he didn't wash in the morning and didn't wash in the evening, the lady is back, what are you washing at this time?

Seeing her standing still, Xue Shao urged: "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you go soon? "Qingrong is coming, isn't it faster, I don't know what to rub around here? Qingrong had paid attention to these details before, he wanted to wash his face and make himself look more energetic, and Mo went to greet her with a haggard face.

He washed his face in three or two clicks, looked at the bronze mirror, and got up and went out after feeling that there was nothing wrong.

It's just that he is not only in a hurry to see each other, Qingrong is also eager to return home, although his face is still calm, but he still unconsciously accelerates his pace.

The two were caught off guard and met head-on outside the courtyard gate.

Xue Shao froze and looked at her in a daze.

Seeing him like this, Qingrong just smiled lightly, and was about to speak, but Xue Shao held her tightly in his arms and refused to let go.

He closed his eyes, and only now that she was standing in front of him intact did his heart settle down, and all that remained was the joy of regain.

Qingrong couldn't move, her heart also stopped beating for this intimate and warm gesture, she reacted, put her hand on his back, smiled and whispered in his ear: "I'm back." ”

Xue Shao didn't raise his head, and hummed sullenly, "It's good to come back." "It's good to be back.

Seeing this, Song Yue and Yun Niang covered their mouths behind and snickered, glanced at Ah Zhen, who was a little anxious on the side, shook their heads with a smile, and signaled that she still didn't want to disturb Ah Lang and the lady, Ah Lang was really in front of the lady... Some childish.

Qingrong hugged him for a while and said, "Okay, this is still outside." ”

Xue Shao raised his head and let go of her.

Qingrong saw Ah Zhen on the side, stepped forward and whispered comfortingly: "Why are you crying?" Aren't they all right now? ”

Ah Zhen shook her head and nodded, trying to hold back that little emotion, and explained: "The lady left me alone in this mansion, and I can't be with the lady, how can the maid not worry?" In the future, the servant... You have to follow the lady there. ”

Xue Shao on the side frowned when he heard this. Qingrong was funny, and if he really wanted to speak, Xue Shao took the initiative to take Qingrong's hand, and said separately: "It's still cold outside, let's go in." ”

Qingrong turned his head to look at him, nodded in response, and the two walked side by side like an old husband and wife, walking towards the house.

Xue Shao didn't wait to return to the house before he asked, "How have you rested these days?" How are you eating? ”

"It's all good, I've been living in His Highness's palace these days, and His Highness still treats each other as before. You don't have to worry. Qingrong took off his cloak, sat down side by side with Xue Shao, looked at the person in front of him, and said, "It's you, you must not have had a good rest." Look at you, even the black green under the eyes is heavy. ”

Xue Shao hugged her in his arms and said in a low voice, "Don't worry." ”

Qingrong looked at him, her eyes were a little sour, and she was even more indescribably moved in her heart, she said, "You go and rest first, I just came back, I should go to Grandpa."

A-Niang Na took a trip. When you wake up, you will have another meal? ”

"I'll go with you."

Qingrong said: "No need, I'll go by myself." ”

"I'm not at ease."

Qingrong was amused, shook his head and said, "It's all at home, why don't you worry?" If my grandmother hears what you say, she will teach you a lesson. ”

Xue Shao didn't care much, and said stiffly: "Don't be afraid, it's not the first time." ”

In the end, Qingrong was not reluctant, and went with him to see the Lu family and Xue's father, and the two of them saw that Qingrong came back with nothing to do, so they put their minds at ease, after all, Qingrong is the daughter-in-law of the Xue family, and everyone knows what she is like.

It's just that Father Xue took this opportunity to admonish Xue Shao again, and he said: "You need to be cautious in doing things, if you didn't act recklessly, why did you let Sanniang be implicated by you?" ”

Xue Shao lowered his head, did not refute a word, accepted it honestly, and said in a deep voice: "My son knows his mistakes. ”

Qingrong wanted to open his mouth to defend him, but the hand that Xue Shao touched with suddenly pinched her and signaled her not to speak. In this way, Qingrong was also silent on the side.

Lu Shi was impatient that he would come to put that set up again, and he glanced at Qingrong intentionally or unintentionally, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, you can say a few words." Blame him for this? Isn't the Li family intent on harming him? ”

After Lu Shi turned his head and gave a few simple instructions, he asked the young couple to retreat first.

Qingrong noticed that Lu's attitude was a little strange, but he didn't take this matter to heart.

The two went back to Lide Hall, and seeing that it was still early for dinner, Qingrong asked Xue Shao to rest for a while. "After a few busy days, you must be tired, go and rest."

Xue Shao shook his head and said, "What is this, when the army is marching and fighting, it is common to have a few days of rest, and I am not tired." ”

Qingrong looked at him and couldn't help but smile, "Okay then, it's just that I see that you are tired and feel a little sorry for you." ”

Xue Shao grabbed her hand, lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "If you're okay, you're worthy of me." ”

Qingrong snuggled into his arms and mumbled, "Thank you." ”

Who knew that the man straightened her body, clasped her shoulders, looked at her, and looked serious, "Thank you, what?" You can have trusted me and you could have relied on me. ”

This is not only because he is pleased with her, but also because of a husband's responsibility to his wife.

Qingrong's heart moved, and he couldn't help but smile: "That's not right." ”

Xue Shao's face changed, his face was also straightened, and he said word by word: "You can trust each other and rely on each other." It's not just you to me, but... My heart is in it. ”

After speaking, Qingrong smiled brightly, his eyes were warm and bright, which made people's hearts surge, and he was in a trance for a while...

Just when he was out of his mind, Xue Shao suddenly found that he had been married for more than a year, as if it was at this moment that he and Qingrong really became husband and wife, not just the joy of fish and water on the body, but could really enter her heart... Occupy a place.

Seeing that Xue Shao didn't react for a long time, Qingrong stretched out his hand and flicked it in front of his forehead, and asked with a smile, "Why don't you speak?" ”

Xue Shao collected his attention and coughed lowly, the tips of his ears turned a little red, "I'm stupid with joy." ”

Qingrong couldn't help laughing, touched his ear, and said, "What a fool." ”

Xue Shao pulled down her hand and put it in his palm, "You always say that I like to use my hands and feet, what about you now?" ”

"I learned it from you, can't I?"

Xue Shao looked away and said lightly: "Yes." "Why not?

Qingrong smiled, didn't speak for a while, and after a while, she asked, "Actually, I haven't understood why you are so affectionate to me?" A long time ago... That's it. ”

She also wanted to ask the reason, what did Xue Shao think?
