"It's already like this, Brother Zhou Shi and Miss Xie don't have to make things difficult for him. Jinxuan is willing to quit. When his father returns safely, Jinxuan will beg his father to terminate the engagement with the Zhou family!" Hearing that Zhou Chong had already married Xie Lingyun,

Wang Jinxuan's face was ashamed. Finally, after she finished talking about the above words with tears in her eyes, she turned around and left.

Looking at Wang Jinxuan's back as he left, Zhou Chong suddenly felt very guilty. Xie Lingyun lowered her head and did not dare to look at Wang Jinxuan. Cheonger was worried about what Wang Jinxuan did. She stood up and stamped her feet and turned around to catch up.

Only Zhou Chong and Xie Lingyun were left in the room. After a while, Xie Lingyun suddenly grabbed Zhou Chong's hand gently and said in a low voice: "My husband, I feel very sorry for Sister Jinxuan!"

"So too!" Zhou Chong said with a wry smile. If he said sorry, he was the one who most sorry to Wang Jinxuan. What made him feel even more guilty was that Wang Jinxuan actually took the initiative to propose a break-up. Seeing her crying just now,

Zhou Chong also felt a stinging pain in his heart for no reason.

However, Zhou Chong had to withdraw from his private affairs, because people from the chamber of commerce came to report and told Zhou Chong a good news. At the same time, he finally knew why Wang Jinxuan ran into his room early in the morning.

It turned out that just this morning, a news came from the capital. Liu Jin didn't know what he was doing, but he actually released Wang Lun from prison for his sake, and he no longer held Wang Lun's charges, that is,

Wang Lun is fine now. He is probably celebrating with a group of old friends in the capital, so he can't come back yet.

After hearing this news, Zhou Chong was also confused. According to his plan, Wang Lun should have been acquitted after Liu Jin was executed. He might even be subject to the court for being framed by Liu Jin.

Commendation, but now Yang Yiqing and Zhang Yong are still on the way to Ningxia to suppress the rebellion, and Liu Jin still holds the power of the court well. How could he let Wang Lun go so easily? This question made Zhou Chong unable to think about it anyway.

clear.

In fact, not only Zhou Chong couldn't figure it out, but even Wang Lun, who was the person involved, also made him confused after his experience. Even his head hurts for this, and he still has no clue.

Speaking of which, the whole thing came very suddenly. Wang Lun was still leisurely staying in the prison of the Ministry of Justice to bask in the sun, and then caught lice on his body. This should be his only entertainment activity in the prison, and the ancients also had lice.

The elegant things I talked about were just a pity that there was no other elegant person in prison talking about knowledge with him, otherwise he would feel that staying in prison would not be a bad thing.

However, Wang Lun's happy life in prison soon came to an end. Just as he was about to fall asleep under the sun, a little eunuch suddenly broke into the prison and read an imperial edict to him, which was nothing more than

The previous record in the palace was wrong. Wang Lun did not hand over one official uniform, so now he is not guilty. And he will be released immediately!

After the eunuch read out the imperial edict, the people from the Ministry of Justice did not dare to delay and immediately asked Wang Lun to be released from prison. As a result, Wang Lun, who had not yet turned his mind, was asked to leave the Ministry of Justice prison. By the time he woke up, he was already

Standing on the streets of the capital, watching the crowds coming and going, and thinking about the dark cell just now, Wang Lun felt as if he was a different life.

Although everything seemed like a dream, Wang Lun was indeed free. Moreover, he stood on the street and thought for a long time, but finally had no idea. He finally decided to ask for help from others. After all, he was not very clear about the affairs in the court now.

Maybe those friends in the past would know some news. In addition, now he is penniless, not only does he not even have a place to live, but even what he eats for the next meal is still a problem.

When Wang Lun thought of asking for help, the first thing he thought of was Li Dongyang. First, he had a close relationship with Li Dongyang before, so he naturally thought of him when he was in trouble. Second, Li Dongyang was in a high position and naturally had more attention to the affairs in the court than other people.

I know a lot, so I will definitely know why I was suddenly released!

It is also because of this that Wang Lun hiked to Li Dongyang's mansion. As a result, he had just come out of prison and his clothes were so embarrassed that the servants of Li's mansion would not let him in at all, until Wang Lun was outside the mansion.

When Li Dongyang returned home, he stopped the other party's sedan chair and met Li Dongyang.

"Brother Ruyan, why are you...why are you here?" What Wang Lun didn't expect was that when Li Dongyang saw him, he was shocked, and his face was full of incredible expressions.

"Mr. Li, don't you even know the news of my release?" Wang Lun also smiled bitterly. In fact, he should have thought that no one came to greet him when he was released from prison. This itself means that he

Not many people must have known about the release from prison, but he didn't expect that even Li Dongyang, who is a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, would not know about it.

"You are out of prison? What's going on?" Sure enough, Li Dongyang asked with wide eyes.

"Mr. Li, please see if we are going to the mansion and talk about it. Now Zhou is describing a miserable person. Just now, the servants in your mansion thought I was a beggar and didn't even let me in!" Wang Lun also knew at this time.

The matter of his release must not be that simple, and he is really embarrassed now.

Li Dongyang finally reacted when he heard Wang Lun's words. He then slapped his forehead and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I'm so confused. Ruyan, please follow me back to the house and wash it up. I'll prepare some wine and food to welcome you.

Then we will eat and talk!”

Li Dongyang said as he pulled Wang Lun's hand, not disgusting Wang Lun's embarrassment at all. At the same time, when he entered the mansion, he scolded several servants who were guarding the door, and immediately asked the servants to prepare hot water clothes and wait for Wang Lun to clean up properly.

After a while.

Half an hour later, Wang Lun and Li Dongyang, who described the new Wang Lun and Li Dongyang join hands to enter the living room. A table of wine and food had been prepared in the living room. At the moment, the two sat opposite each other. Li Dongyang first punished himself three cups to apologize to Wang Lun, and Wang Lun was also

I took the opportunity to eat something and then told me about the release of myself.

"Mr. Li, I actually used the imperial edict when I released this time, but now Your Majesty ignores the government affairs at all. All imperial edicts are in the hands of Liu Jin. Moreover, the eunuchs in the palace were actually the eunuchs who released me. Could it be that the imperial edict for releasing me was really Liu Jin's.

Next?" After Wang Lun finished talking about his experience, he explained the result that he had considered for a long time. However, with his understanding of Liu Jin, how could the other party issue an order to release himself?

After hearing this, Li Dongyang pondered and gently tapped his right finger on the table. Wang Lun, who was familiar with him, knew that this was a manifestation that Li Dongyang only had when he considered a difficult problem. Li Dongyang sat there thinking for a long time and knocked it

His fingers suddenly paused, and then he said to Wang Lun with a bright look: "Brother Wang, you have a noble person to help you. If I guess correctly, this imperial edict should be from Your Majesty!"

After Li Dongyang said that, he smiled. Now Liu Jin holds the power of the country, and even the imperial edict is written by him. But don’t forget that there is another emperor in the Ming Dynasty, and he can also issue imperial edicts. And according to Li Dongyang’s previous guess, Zhou Chong

The Nanyang Chamber of Commerce is likely to be supported by Emperor Zhengde, which means that there must be a close relationship between Zhou Chong and His Majesty the Emperor. In addition, Zhou Chong is Wang Lun's prospective son-in-law, and Wang Lun is now in prison.

Zhou Chong is likely to plead with His Majesty, so it is reasonable for His Majesty to pardon Wang Lun.

"Niujiu...a noble man helps?" Wang Lun was a little confused. He didn't know who the noble man in Li Dongyang's dialect was referring to?

"Hahaha~ Brother Ruyan, it seems that you are really confused. You don't even know what kind of son-in-law you have found!" Li Dongyang suddenly laughed and now he also saw that, His Majesty the Emperor, also,

He actually released Wang Lun because of Zhou Chong's relationship, which means that Zhou Chong occupies a very important position in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor. Of course, Li Dongyang has to find a way to win over such an important person, while Wang Lun wins over Zhou Chong.

The key figure, so Li Dongyang felt that there was no need to fall asleep to him.

"Son-in-law?" Wang Lun was stunned at first, but then he reacted and said in shock, "Mr. Li, are you talking about Zhou Chong?"

Seeing that Wang Lun finally reacted, Li Dongyang laughed, and then analyzed the reason why he knew about Zhou Chong in advance that something big happened in April. The analysis result was that Zhou Chong knew about this matter in advance, which must be related to His Majesty.

The well-known connection, even the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, is likely to be behind the support of His Majesty, and the playful Emperor, must be not as simple as they see on the surface.

Wang Lun was also shocked by Li Dongyang's analysis. He was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly and said, "No wonder Mr. Li and his brother came to prison to ask me about Zhou Chong and the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce.

It is to determine whether Zhou Chong has any connection with His Majesty.”

After hearing Wang Lun's words, Li Dongyang said apologetically: "Yes, my husband and I did want to get some news from Ruyan, but because this speculation was too amazing, we didn't tell you.

You, I hope you don’t blame me!"

"Mr. Li is polite. Ruyan naturally knows your hard work." Wang Lun also hurriedly said, "But it's a pity that I don't know much about the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, so I can't help. If I had known it, then

I should know more about the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce.”

"Haha, you are polite. Although we did not have direct evidence to prove the connection between the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce and Your Majesty, now you have been suddenly released, which further illustrates the connection between Zhou Chong and Your Majesty.

Moreover, Your Majesty also attaches great importance to Zhou Chong, otherwise he would not have used the imperial edict to release you." Li Dongyang smiled at this time.

Wang Lun shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this. He didn't expect that the Zhou family had such a deep background, and that he all relied on Zhou Chong to survive this time.

But just as Wang Lun was about to say something, suddenly a servant from Li's mansion came hurriedly to report: "Master Qi, Eunuch Gu in the palace came here in person, and asked him to see Mr. Wang!" (To be continued
