209 The princess is on top (21)
Chen Lian took a sip of the tea placed next to him and continued, "It's interesting that the 200,000 taels of disaster relief silver was not found in the Yuan family at that time. Therefore, before the Yuan family was beheaded, they were tortured. Bao'an still remembers the scene when he first met Wang Fu. He had a handsome face, but he was as angry as a wanderer. If it weren't for Bao'an picking it up, he would have lost his life long ago. Bao'an asked his servant to take off his clothes and found that he had many wounds all over his body."
"It's easy to think that as the legitimate son of the Yuan family, he is definitely one of the main targets of severe torture."
Chen Lian searched for the original body's memory and simply restored the situation of that year.
"Does Wang Tainu want me to overturn the case?" Song Zhe had long speculated about this, so his expression did not change at this time. "But Wang Tainu should know that it was a matter of Wulongnian, or a case decided by my father. If the case was overturned at this time, then how should people in the world view me?"
Chen Lian understood that Song Zhe had actually let go.
Otherwise, he would not be invited to speak alone today.
However, in Song Zhe's opinion, he had something to ask for him, so he got up with his airs.
If the real Yuan Chenlian was here, Song Zhe's attitude might be ignored because of the involvement of himself, but Chen Lian would not.
He stood up and said, "Since that's the case, Bao'an will naturally not make things difficult for Your Majesty Daqian. Your Majesty, it's getting late, and Bao'an should go back to the inn."
Song Zhe was stunned, and never expected Chen Lian to give up like this.
But it’s not right. I heard that this person is in love with her Han man Wang Fu. Doesn’t she really want to find out the truth?
Song Zhe intended to keep Chen Lian, but he moved quickly and opened the door of the imperial study room.
If he speaks again at this time, he would be too anxious.
No hurry or hurry.
Since this princess came to Daqian from the Western Regions thousands of miles away, she would not leave easily.
Since that's the case, he still has a chance to wait until she comes to negotiate with him.
Back at the inn, Chen Lian felt what happened on No. 2, smiled slightly, sat on the bed, and continued to practice.
If you want to be free, you must be strong.

No. 2 Chen Lian still followed Liu Changqing back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. The identity of Yuan Rui fabricated by Hu Heyu is not bad.
On the way back, he and Liu Changqing were in the same carriage, "Brother Yuan Rui, did you see it just now? The world-famous Princess Bao'an is so beautiful! It really surprised me! It's a pity that Princess Wang never went back after leaving the table."
Of course, he didn't go back, but No. 1 was called into the imperial study by Emperor Daqian.
Chen Lian laughed and said, "Yes, I didn't expect that Princess Wang is a very beautiful woman. Just by looking at her age, she is no different from a 28-year-old woman."
"That's right." However, Liu Changqing quickly shook his head, "But the Princess Wang is worthy of being in power for many years, and is neither humble nor arrogant in front of His Majesty. I can't control such a woman."
When Liu Changqing said this, he quickly changed the topic, "Brother Yuan Rui. In two days, the courtesan of Fuyun Pavilion will perform on stage. Many young men in Xijing want to support the show. The new courtesan and the girl I spoiled are friends. At the invitation of Nishang, I have to support the show. If Brother Yuan Rui goes with me, I won't be there?"
Chen Lian was about to refuse, but Liu Changqing continued, "I know that Brother Yuan Rui is talented and noble in nature, and he doesn't like this kind of scene. However, this girl plays the guzheng well, and her music is unique in Fuyun Pavilion. Why don't Brother Yuan Rui take a look? Maybe he can become a guest of the girl's entry into the curtain in the future and discuss the music together."
Now Chen Lian couldn't refuse.
After all, Hu and Yu are only interested in music, so they are discovered by Liu Changqing with the same hobby.
"Since that's the case, I'll trouble Brother Changqing at that time." If you want to become the guest of the courtesan and discuss the music with her, then this money will definitely be a lot.
Yuan Rui, who was poor and had come to Xijing to defect to his uncle but had not found his uncle, naturally could not come up with him.
Liu Changqing patted his shoulder, "Of course, this matter is bound to me."
Liu Changqing continued, "I tell you, Brother Yuan Rui, this Fuyun Pavilion is much cleaner than other brothels. Without exception, all the prostitutes here are convicted officials and their descendants, and they are much cleaner than those prostitutes who are civilians."
When Chen Lian heard the convicted lady of the official family and her descendants, his eyes flashed slightly: "Is that so? They are all pitiful people."
Liu Changqing disagreed, "These famous women in Fuyun Pavilion are not pitiful. There are countless ministers under their skirts, and many of them spend a lot of money just to see them. Maybe even the ladies of the official family don't have such a great reputation."
Chen Lian did not refute or agree.
For this Daqian woman who abides by the three obediences and four virtues, she will probably not be happy even if she lives a life of luxury.
The next day, Chen Lian said something to Liu Changqing and left the mansion.
Liu Changqing also sighed, "Brother Yuan Rui, why do you know nothing about your uncle? Even if you know a name, it's easy to find."
Chen Lian could only show an apology, "It's really a blessing, Brother Changqing is worried. I believe that God will pay off. As long as I am sincere, I will definitely be able to find my uncle."
Liu Changqing admired Chen Lian very much. He didn't say anything more now, but just stuffed him a bag of silver, "It's easy to do something if you have silver."
Chen Lian did not accept the money pretentiously. After receiving the money, he left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After he walked around outside, he knocked on the gate of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion.
A quarter of an hour later, he sat in the position he had taken before No. 1.
Mr. Jiang looked at the young man in front of him, no, if he counted according to his age, he was already forty.
However, his face was so handsome that he could vaguely match the younger generation who had guided the world.
"After that little brother Wuxin came, I was wondering if you would appear. Unexpectedly, I saw you in two days."
Chen Lian smiled: "After learning the truth from Wuxin, he thought that he would come to thank Uncle Jiang in person."
"No need to thank you." Seeing Chen Lian's gentle temperament, Mr. Jiang had no overlap with the young man full of resentment who he had watched with his own eyes run away except for a face.
Time will indeed change a lot.
"To be honest, I was also wondering whether it was right or wrong to save your life. Until now, I have confirmed that I have done the right thing."
He dreamed of Yuankang the most feared thing about him. He was afraid that Yuankang would ask him why he didn't seek justice for him, and he was also afraid that Yuankang would blame him for saving Chen Lian and let him live with hatred.
Chen Lian's expression seemed to be a smile on his face, "Uncle Jiang, what if I say, I still want to take revenge?"
