Chapter 138: It's finally here
When everyone dispersed, Li showed a trace of unbearability. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Huan Niang, you once said that if you are not careful, this family affair is to ruin your life, although your sister Lotus is not likable, but in my heart, there is always some unbearable...... What if she doesn't have a good time in the future...... It's so far away, and the relatives have no support, it's really life and death!"
Bai Chenghuan's expression was a little difficult for Li to see: "Mother, if she can listen to your advice, then it's okay to say, but everyone has their own aspirations, and the path she chooses by herself, whether it is good or bad, must be walked by herself, whether it is good or bad, and it is also her own creation, which is better than what others choose for her...... Mother, if your daughter wants to go her own way in the future, can you ask her mother for permission?"
Li Shi furrowed his brows, and was shocked: "Huan Niang, are you planning to learn from your eldest sister?"
"Mother, do you think too much...... Bai Chenghuan smiled and changed the subject: "Before my father went out the day before yesterday, I could say what I was doing, why didn't I come back today?"
It's been three days, Bai Bingxiong hasn't come back, and He Qi hasn't come back either......
Bai Chenghuan didn't show it on his face, but he was very anxious in his heart, what happened to Xiao Shi's side?
Li Shi thought about it and felt strange: "Yes, in the past, even if your father couldn't come back, he would tell the family where he went, but this time, the old mansion and our side have looked for him many times but haven't found him......"
But her husband has been away for so many years, often outside, let alone a few days, even if he doesn't go home for half a year, it's not uncommon, this is simply her and a pair of children's home, and her husband is like a passer-by who lives in a hotel.
Bai Chenghuan's heart sank suddenly, and the way Bai Bingxiong spoke on the morning of his departure appeared in front of her eyes again - all kinds of abnormalities, there must be trouble!
If Li was still a little surprised by his daughter's words before, then in the afternoon, Li finally understood!
In the afternoon, Steward Chen went out to do errands, and when he came back, he told the Li family a big event: "Madam, the imperial court is going to draft a draft, and the notices outside have been posted, and there is a government messenger reading it out there, and the family with a sixteen-year-old undecided marriage and a woman with a good appearance must go to the government to report to the government!"
"What?" Li was shocked, "Queen Xiaoyuan's filial piety period hasn't even passed, why did she start the draft?"
At the age of 16, she has not yet decided on her marriage, and her appearance is good, but Huan Niang is just right to sign up!
No, she is too far away from the capital, if she lets her daughter go to the draft and enter the palace, she will never see each other in her life, then it is better to kill her!
"Do you hear me?" Li didn't want to believe.
"Listen to it really, just because our eldest lady just meets this condition, the little one has listened to it a few more times, it's true, it's not wrong at all, Mrs. hurry up and get an idea!"
Whether to be elected, or whatever, this has to be prepared! Steward Chen couldn't help but worry when he thought that the old man was not at home and the wife was in charge alone.
Li's heart was beating wildly, and he sat alone for a while, and finally calmed down and said, "I have to make an idea, yes, I'll go and find a way!"
Li got up, went straight to his daughter's boudoir, and confessed to Bai Chenghuan: "Huan Niang, you are good to stay at home, and your mother will go out!"
Bai Chenghuan looked at the Li family, although his face was not obvious, but he still had some six gods and no master, and grabbed her and asked, "Mother, but what's the matter?"
Li Shi turned around and thought about it, and simply said: "Huan Niang, you have always had a big idea, and your mother doesn't hide this matter from you, but in fact, you can't hide it...... The imperial court, it's time for the draft!"
Bai Chenghuan was stunned, and the feeling that poured out in an instant didn't know whether it was sad or happy.
Finally the wait came, this will.
Everything that was before is buried, and everything that comes to future is about to begin!
"My mother thought, let's go out to a good person's house to find out, there is a suitable person, and your family affairs will be settled in these two days...... It's really not good, just say that you and your cousin in Jiangzhou have already made a marriage, or, change your age to two years younger, anyway, don't worry, no matter what, your mother will not let you go to the capital to suffer that crime!"
Li said hurriedly, in fact, he was still flustered, these things, if only he had planned early, now, he is afraid of strict investigation by the government, how can he cover it up...... Yes, I have to hurry up and tell the master!
The chaotic thoughts went through Li's mind over and over again, but he didn't notice the change in his daughter's expression.
It wasn't until Bai Chenghuan's categorical words reached Li's ears that she raised her head in astonishment: "Huanniang, what did you say?"
"Mother, it doesn't have to be like this, daughter, determined to run!"
Bai Chenghuan looked at Li with dark eyes and said word by word.
"Huan Niang!" The composure on Li's face finally cracked, and he suddenly shouted.
"How can you have such a thought? The draft is not a trivial matter, if you go to the capital, whether you can be selected or not is unknown, whether you can come back safely is unknown! Even if you are selected, you will stay in that deep palace for the rest of your life, and you will not see your mother's face for the rest of your life? Huanniang, you listen to your mother, don't mention this again, that palace, it seems to be full of flowers, it is really not a good place to go, your mother is not allowed to go!"
There are not many drafts for the emperors of the Great Qi dynasties, but every draft that makes countless women have beautiful dreams is a cruel struggle!
When the first emperor, there was only one show, at that time, the Li family was still young, she had a clan sister, just the right age, was sent to the capital, but later, that clan sister was not selected, nor was she sent back - it is said that it was in the capital that offended the noble daughter of the family, was dragged behind the horse in the street, dragged to death!
Such a tragic death, there were no bones, the news was transmitted back to Jiangnan, she had a nightmare for half a month, and the dream was that the clan sister was dragged to a bloody body, and the death was terrifying!
Since then, no one in the Li family has looked forward to the draft, and the imperial court has never drafted again, and this draft, which used to be the best ladder for women in Daqi, was completely forgotten by her!
Now that it's here again, and it's going to be drafted again, how can she let her daughter go again and repeat the mistakes of the clan sister back then?!
The Bai family is just a small family of military attachés who can't be smaller, the capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there are countless nobles, her daughter, she can't take risks, those who have ascended to the sky in one step are not rare!
"Huan Niang, you listen to your mother, you are still young, you don't know the stakes of this, the emperor's draft, in fact, are all people who are predetermined, but all women in the world want to fight, then someone must be a stepping stone, your father is a lowly official, and your mother will never let you take this risk!"
Li tried his best to calm his tone, looked at Bai Chenghuan, who looked calm but didn't have the intention of changing his words, and wanted to talk to his daughter well.
The daughter must still be too young and simple-minded, thinking that the royal supremacy is a good place to go, and she has to talk to her! )
