Lu Ruojiang finally arrived at Lishi County, and the timing couldn't have been better. Due to Qian Ningning's forcing Wu De to separate from Liang Qingjie, Wu De took Qian Ningning to court. Because the county magistrate here is biased towards men, even though Qian Ningning had a strong case, she was sentenced to corporal punishment. The guards of Duke's Mansion are hesitant about whether to reveal their identities, so they are struggling to comply with the magistrate's orders and are at a standstill with the county office's bailiffs.
The county magistrate slammed the table: "This is outrageous! Are you trying to rebel!?"
"We dare not rebel, but we might resign from our official positions!" Lu Ruojiang's voice rang out, and the onlookers parted like the Red Sea to make way for him.
Qian Ningning looked at the dignified and noble Lu Ruojiang, opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly remembered the current situation, and closed her mouth, lowering her eyes.
The county magistrate saw Lu Ruojiang's attitude as unrestrained, and was unsure of his identity, so he cautiously asked, "Who is causing the commotion here?" Liu Yong coldly shouted, "Open your dog eyes and look clearly, this is our Prince Yangming." The county magistrate broke out in a cold sweat and quickly got off the high official's chair, "This official pays respects to the Prince."
Lu Ruojiang glanced at the ashen-faced Wu De and said, "I am not an unreasonable person. I only hope that the magistrate will carefully review the case and make a fair judgment."
"Yes, yes, I was confused for a moment," the magistrate wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and changed the verdict to declare Qian Ningning innocent and exile Wu De.
After leaving the courtroom, the magistrate wanted to approach Liu Yong for a chat, but was intercepted and casually dismissed.
Joking aside, the most important thing now is to win back the heart of the Duchess. How can we allow this little official to ruin it?
Liang Qingjie looked at Auntie Li Er in confusion, "Why did my brother-in-law become a prince?"
Auntie Li Er whispered, "It's a long story. I'll tell you in detail when we get back."
Lu Ruojiang came to Qian Ningning's side and cautiously said, "Ningning..."
Qian Ningning replied calmly, "I am Qian Ningning, may I ask..."
Before she could finish, Lu Ruojiang grabbed her hand and said, "Ningning, if you're upset, just let it out, okay? Don't be like this..."
"I wouldn't dare to get angry with Prince!" Qian Ningning couldn't help but mock. She didn't understand, at this point, did Lu Ruojiang still think that a few kind words could deceive her? But when Qian Ningning saw the surprise on Lu Yong and Lu Qi's faces, she suddenly thought of Lu Ruojiang's identity. Ultimately, she couldn't bear to let Lu Ruojiang lose face in front of her subordinates. Qian Ningning said, "Let's go back, we'll talk when we get back."
...
Back to the place where they first settled, after everyone left the room, only Qian Ningning and Lu Ruojiang remained.
"Ningning, it was wrong of me to hide my identity, but my feelings for you are genuine. Please don't doubt that," Lu Ruojiang said earnestly.
Qian Ningning sneered, "Is your heart really for me? If your true feelings have hidden your identity for three years, deceived me and kept me in the dark, while also pursuing a Duchess in Liangzhou, then I cannot afford your true feelings, Qian Ningning!"
Lu Ruojiang replied, "I concealed your identity because every time I wanted to confess, you were very resistant. I was afraid you would want to leave me, so I thought to delay it. I didn't expect the urgent decree from the officials recently, which didn't give me time to react."
"Deceive you and keep you in the dark? How could I bear to? Besides my identity, I have never lied to you about anything!" Lu Ruojiang said firmly, "As for pursuing a Duchess, it's absurd. The only Duchess I want is you!"
