Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

"No, Chen Lerong rarely goes out recently," the soldier replied.

After confirming that the person was in He's mansion, Prince Ning ordered people to start arresting him: "Now there is no need to worry about anything, you can arrest him."

The soldier did not hide. He knocked on the door of He's house and went in to arrest Chen Lerong without saying a word.

Chen Lerong took a long time to react. Seeing the soldiers holding her, she forced herself to calm down: "Take your dirty hands away from me. Why are you arresting me?"

The soldier snorted coldly: "If you have any questions, go to the government office and report to Prince Ning."

"I don't have anything to tell you, just let go."

The soldier ignored Chen Lerong's struggle and said, "You'll know whether you have gone to the government office or not."

Chen Lerong hugged the big tree in the yard and refused to leave with the people from the yamen.

Bai Lian, who was walking in the yard, almost laughed out loud when she saw the embarrassed Chen Lerong.

She said to the maid beside her, "I wonder what trouble Chen Lerong got into outside?"

"I don't know. From what I've seen, the Madam has gotten herself into quite a mess this time. Even the government officials have come."

Bai Lian's eyes were full of sarcasm: "You have been married into the He family for so many years, but you still haven't changed your poor and shabby nature. You toss and turn every day and end up in the government office."

The maid echoed, "Yes! If the master hadn't protected you so closely, you wouldn't have had a peaceful life."

"Let's go to the lake to see the lotus flowers. Let Chen Lerong handle her own issues." Bai Lian turned and walked towards the back garden.

When He's father returned from the palace, he saw Chen Lerong arguing with a yamen runner.

He hurried forward and asked: "What are you doing?"

When Chen Lerong saw He's father, she felt like she saw a savior: "They want to arrest me and take me to the government, please save me quickly."

He's father asked, "What on earth is going on?"

The bailiff did not hide the truth from He's father because he was an official of the imperial court and had the right to know.

They didn't want to continue to tangle with Chen Lerong: "Master He, your wife let the Hu people enter the capital. Not only did the princess of the county get kidnapped by the Hu people, but also caused huge losses to the shops on the street. We are arresting her and bringing her back for trial."

Father He was incredulous: "How dare you do such a thing?"

Now Chen Lerong knew that what she had done had been discovered, and she felt extremely regretful.

When the Hu people came to her, she struggled in her heart, but she thought of He's father's doting on that little bitch Bai Lian.

He agreed to help the Hu people enter the capital, but the prerequisite was that they disguise themselves as bandits, break into He's house, and kill Bai Lian and her son.

The Hu people agreed, and she helped them enter the capital city reluctantly, thinking that her crime had now been exposed.

As long as Chen Lerong admits it, He's father will definitely abandon her for his future: "It has nothing to do with me. They must have made a mistake. You must save me."

At this moment, He's father had a severe headache. He was an official of the imperial court and knew very well that he could not stop the yamen runners from doing their work at this moment: "You follow the yamen runners to the government office first, and I will find you when the time comes."

Chen Lerong couldn't accept this result. He thought that his father wanted to take this opportunity to dump him. "He Hong, do you still have any conscience? You actually abandoned me at this time. After all, I have been with you for more than ten years, and you don't even have this little bit of love between husband and wife."

In front of so many people, Chen Lerong said this without giving He's father any face. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot: "When did I say that I don't care about you? No matter if you are guilty or not, the yamen runners have come to your door, and you have to go with them."

Chen Lerong completely collapsed. She was put in a cell today. She would never be able to raise her head in front of the noble lady in the capital again. "I won't go."

He's father was furious: "What's wrong with you? If you are innocent, you will not be unable to come back after following the bailiff."

Chen Lerong felt guilty. She was afraid that if she followed the yamen runners, she would never come back. Her attitude softened. "The old house must be damp, and there are all kinds of people in it. I really don't want to go."

"You have to go even if you don't want to. This is not something I can decide."

The bailiffs ignored He's father. Four or five of them stepped forward and forcefully dragged Chen Lerong out of He's house.

Chen Lerong kept struggling, shouting for He's father to save her life.

He's father ignored it and let the bailiffs take Chen Lerong away. He didn't take it to heart since Chen Lerong was willing to do so.

No one would embarrass Chen Lerong at the government office, so he planned to go there later.

……

Chen Lerong, who was captured by the government, was trembling with fear.

Prince Ning came to the dim cell, sat on a stool, and looked at Chen Lerong: "Do you know why I let the video capture you?"

At this time, Chen Lerong still maintained a trace of rationality and resolutely refused to admit what she had done: "I don't know, I don't want to stay here, let me go back quickly."

Prince Ning sneered. Chen Lerong was the stepmother of the Princess Consort. No matter what, he would show leniency to her.

However, Chen Lerong actually let the Hu people enter the capital and allowed them to kill and rob the people in the capital.

This made him unbearable: "Then let me remind you why I arrested you and brought you to the government. Some time ago, was it you who let the Hu people into the capital?"

Chen Lerong's expression became panicked: "I didn't do that. It has nothing to do with me. Don't throw dirty water on me."

"Humph, you know very well whether I have thrown dirty water or not. I have investigated everything clearly. If you confess, you will be treated leniently, and if you resist, you will be treated severely. If you keep talking back, you will be punished endlessly."

Chen Lerong's face turned paler than paper. Thinking that the Hu people had already left the capital, he felt more confident: "Since you have investigated it clearly, then you should show me the evidence. You can't just talk nonsense and accuse me here."

Prince Ning saw that Chen Lerong still refused to admit it at this time, so he didn't hesitate and said to the yamen runner beside him: "Punish her."

The bailiff walked forward and tied Chen Lerong to a pillar very skillfully.

Chen Lerong's heart beat in her throat: "What do you want to do? I am the wife of the He family, an official's wife. You torture me without any evidence."

Prince Ning has been to the battlefield and solved cases, and he has seen all kinds of people. People like Chen Lerong are the typical ones who don't need torture and won't tell the truth.

"I'll give you some time to think about it. Tell me the truth about everything. If you continue to be stubborn, I'll have no choice but to torture you."

Chen Lerong looked at the torture instruments on the shelf and burst into tears of fear. If she continued to deny, it would be her who brought the Hu people into the capital.

Prince Ning would really torture her, but fortunately, she and the Hu people were dealing in private and no one saw it.

Throwing dirty water on Bai Lian: "It was not me who let the Hu people into the capital, it was He Fu's concubine Bai Lian. Go and arrest her and torture her severely."
