Chapter 180 Confession

Being courteous for nothing is either cheating or stealing, and besides, Shen Yu was sure that Li Yanchang had something to say.

It was hot in summer, so Shen Yu sat near the door and opened the curtain on one side.

After the carriage drove out of the imperial city, Shen Yu lowered the curtain and spoke.

"Your Highness, Prince Qi, isn't he afraid that others will think that you and I are very close friends?"

"You opened the curtain in the palace just now, didn't you just hope that everyone would think so?" Li Yanchang said.

Shen Yu said: "Didn't King Qi also acquiesce in the despicable behavior?"

"Yes." Li Yanchang smiled, leaned closer, and said flirtatiously: "It's better to be closer. I think we can be closer. What do you think?"

Shen Yu's eyebrows were calm, "Let's get down to business, King Qi."

Li Yanchang clicked his tongue twice, "This is business."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her preparing to get out of the car.

"Wait a minute." Li Yanchang put down his frivolous expression, "How do you think about the conditions I negotiated at the hunting ground last time?"

Shen Yu leaned against the wall of the car, "I have thought about it. Now that I am a popular person in front of His Majesty, I am afraid that His Highness King Qi's sincerity is not enough."

"You are now a new rich man in Shengjing, but you were once an emperor and a courtier." Li Yanchang said dangerously: "How long can this new rich man be more noble?"

"Even if you are looking for a new wife, it should be the prince."

Li Yanchang laughed out loud, and then said after laughing enough: "You walk around in front of His Majesty all day long, and you only get much more information than I do. Can't you understand what the situation is now?"

Shen Yu said: "The day when Marquis Xuanping didn't speak, the prince took his seat in the East Palace."

"Can't you?" Li Yanchang said: "The king's heart is unpredictable."

Shen Yu lowered her head and looked thoughtful, "Hearing that King Qi is so sure, what are you going to do to pull him down? In other words, how are you going to get Marquis Xuanping to speak?"

Li Yanchang said: "You don't have to worry about this. You just say whether you are willing or not."

"Then it depends on what conditions Wang Kai can afford."

Li Yanchang's feminine face was full of evil, "What I have, of course you have a share. If you want the other side of my bed, I will agree to it."

"Stop the car." Shen Yu said calmly. Before getting out of the carriage, she turned back and said, "You have to hurry up."

Li Yanchang was wary, "Why?"

Shen Yu glanced sideways at Li Yanchang, "Don't you smell it? The incense in His Majesty's bedroom is getting stronger."

Shen Yu jumped off the carriage in the busy city, watched the carriage disappear, and turned into an alley.

Li Yanchang said: "When I entered the palace today, the incense in the bedroom was indeed stronger again, but it still couldn't cover up the smell of the medicine. It should be that the imperial doctor increased the dosage of medicine."

"Your Majesty, are this woman's words credible?" Scarface asked.

Li Yanchang lost his frivolity and his eyes were full of sullenness, "This king is holding her lifeline, I can't believe it or not believe it."

"Go and do something for me." Li Yanchang said.

Scarface said: "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."

"Send someone to keep an eye on Beilin Palace. I want to see if they really have a falling out."

Scarface: "Yes."

The punishment department was as solid as gold. Marquis Xuanping lay on the hard wooden bed, staring at the wall in a daze.

The walls are very dirty. The Penal Department Prison has existed for hundreds of years and has been repaired and strengthened several times, but traces of the previous generations are still left.

There were suicide notes that had not been scraped clean, there were bald walls where prisoners had dug them out, and there were even blood stains.

The footsteps stopped at the door of the prison, and Marquis Xuanping showed no reaction.

He knew that he would go through this process every day, and the jailer would come and ask him if he wanted to speak.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear any familiar words, but I heard a small sobbing sound.

When Marquis Xuanping heard the voice, he was suddenly startled, "Anan?"

He stood up and suddenly stumbled towards the door, "Why are you here?!"

"Dad." Pei Chunli cried loudly.

Pei Chunli didn't expect to see his father in such a mess. He had been like the sky since he was a child, but the sky collapsed so suddenly that he was caught off guard and didn't know what to do next.

Marquis Xuanping held his hand and said, "Dad, it's okay. Why have you lost so much weight?"

Pei Chunli wiped his tears, "Dad, what happened? They all said that dad was the mastermind of the Yanliangguan case, and it was you who killed so many soldiers."

"Do you believe it?" Xuan Pinghou asked.

"I don't believe it." Pei Chunli cried, "You taught me not to soil myself. I don't believe it."

Marquis Xuanping burst into tears, "Then don't believe it."

At least in his son's heart, he is still clean, Xuan Pinghou said in his heart.

"Visitors are not allowed in the prison, how did you get in?" Xuan Pinghou asked.

Pei Chunli wiped his tears and said, "Master Xu asked me to come."

Marquis Xuanping had a thought.

Xu Yishan definitely wanted Pei Chunli to persuade him to confess as soon as possible, but once he confessed, his days would be numbered.

"This place is unlucky. You should go back after seeing me." Marquis Xuanping said.

Pei Chunli started crying again, "I finally got in. Oh, by the way, King Qi asked me to bring a message."

Marquis Xuanping's hands shook slightly and he asked hurriedly: "What did he say?"

"He said the prince was stupid and asked you not to protect him anymore." Pei Chunli said, "King Qi said he would find a way to protect you and not let our family collapse."

Marquis Xuanping was stunned for a moment, his eyes flickered a few times, and his legs went weak as if he had lost all strength.

Pei Chunli put his arm through the railing and hurriedly supported him, "Dad, are you okay?"

"No, it's nothing." Xuan Pinghou's eyes were dull, and after a while he fixed his gaze on Pei Chunli's face, "Anan, go back."

Pei Chunli said: "Dad, when can you go home?"

"It should be... it should be soon." Xuan Pinghou was evasive.

Pei Chunli nodded happily, "Well, I'll go back first. I'll wait for you at home. I will definitely listen to you and study hard in the future."

Marquis Xuanping clapped his hand and said, "Well, go ahead."

Pei Chunli let go of his hand, but was suddenly held back by Marquis Xuanping.

"Anan, you... remember to eat well and study well."

Pei Chunli nodded, feeling something was wrong, "Dad..."

"Wait for dad to come out and check your homework."

Pei Chunli laughed and nodded with tears in his eyes, "Okay."

Seeing Pei Chunli's back disappear, Marquis Xuanping slowly backed away and finally sat on the hard bed.

"Okay, what a plan, hahahahahaha."

Marquis Xuanping laughed so hard, "What a good plan, even I was included in it."

The jailer listened for a long time and saw that Marquis Xuanping looked like he was going crazy.

"Why are you laughing? It's time to speak."

Marquis Xuanping laughed so hard that his old laughter echoed in the cell. At the end of his laughter, he raised his head, but his face was filled with tears.

"Here, I'll do it. Here, bring a pen and paper."

Pei Chunli walked out of the prison and felt a few drops of water fall on his face.

He raised his head and looked at the sky.

"It's raining."
