Chapter 38, Chong Guan is a red face

Li Xin'er's father is a six-grade imperial history of the Great Zhou Kingdom, he has no powerful relatives, and no rich friends, in the eyes of all colleagues, he is an honest little imperial history, and there will be no big promotion opportunities in his life.

He lost his wife at an early age, and later remarried a woman of the Zheng family, who was also an honest man and gave birth to three boys and a girl.

But he didn't pay much attention to Li Xin'er, the daughter born to his wife, in Li Xin'er's eyes, it was his stepmother Zheng who made trouble from it, and it was the stepmother who wanted her daughter to climb on her head.

Li Xin'er has reached the age when she can marry, she has always been afraid of the Zheng family, afraid that the Zheng family will rob her of her good marriage to her daughter, always be careful. Zheng was speechless about this, she had already given her all the dowries of Li Xin'er's mother, and even added a lot of dowries to her, many of which she brought from her parents' family, and her own biological daughters began to be dissatisfied. But when she did this, there was still no way to eliminate Li Xin'er's prejudice against her.

"Father, look at the true face of this vicious woman, she actually wants to marry me to the tuberculosis marquis."

Li Xin'er has always thought too highly of herself, she feels that she is better than other official nobles in terms of appearance and talent, why can others marry so well, but she wants to marry a person who is about to die?

Zheng felt so wronged, she didn't agree to that family affair at all, but she couldn't refuse too directly.

"Master, it's wronged, the concubine didn't agree at all, it's just that Mrs. Hou Ye is here, and the concubine can't refuse so obviously, we can't afford to offend the Hou Mansion."

Seeing his wife crying pitifully, Father Li felt pity and said tactfully: "Xin'er, I think this matter should be a misunderstanding, your stepmother is not that kind of person." ”

Li Xin'er didn't expect her father to still help her like this, she said sharply: "Okay, since the daughter has embarrassed her father, then the person who asked her father to go back to the Hou Mansion said that Xin'er was willing." ”

"Xin'er, don't be rash, the little marquis won't last long." Father Li said earnestly, even if he didn't put too much thought into Li Xin'er, but no matter how he said that she was his daughter, he didn't want to see her widowed at a young age. Now deal with the Hou Mansion first, and wait for the little Hou Ye to be in the near future, and the Hou Mansion also remembers their thoughts, even if they don't pull a hand in the future, at least they won't step on him. Today's officialdom has no support, how can it stand for a long time.

It's a pity that Li Xin'er doesn't think so, she thinks that her father is planning to sell his daughter for glory, and she is resentful.

"Father, you don't need to say it, the daughter has already decided."

After Li Xin'er left, Father Li asked worriedly, "What do you say about this?" ”

"Now the only way is to send her away and hand it over to her uncle, her uncle is in Jiangnan, the people of the Hou Mansion should not chase so far, it is better to leave overnight, so as not to have too many dreams at night."

Father Li felt that Zheng's words were reasonable, he couldn't offend the Hou Mansion, and he didn't want his daughter to marry so unfortunately, the only way was to send her away, go to Jiangnan, and then ask her uncle to find a good family for her.

The Zheng family is not as optimistic as Li's father, with Li Xin'er's arrogant character, how could he be willing to leave Kyoto and go to such a distant place in the south of the Yangtze River.

Sure enough, Li Xin'er was very dissatisfied with this, but no matter how she objected, Li's father ignored it and insisted on pressing her into the carriage, Li Xin'er shouted: "You will regret it, you will definitely regret treating me like this today." ”

Li Xin'er was unwilling in her heart, with her talent and appearance, she was so much better than Qin Siyu, why did she go to Jiangnan, marry those unknown people, and live a life of rough tea and light food, but Qin Siyu, who was not loved by King Zhao, could be above the ten thousand people in the Shang country, and the mother of the world.

Along the way, Li Xin'er compared herself with Qin Siyu, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became, instead of going to Jiangnan to live such a hard life, it was better to go to Shangguo with King Zhao, with King Zhao's love for her, it was not difficult to fight for a good future.

The Hou Mansion is in charge of the military power in Kyoto, and the soldiers at the city gate saw the carriage of the Li family and immediately stopped it, before Li's father and the Zheng family could make excuses, Li Xin'er ran out and said loudly: "My father is unkind, my stepmother is vicious, and now I, Li Xin'er, am here to break off with Li Jiaen, and from now on, I will never get along with each other." ”

Father Li was so angry that he fainted to the ground, but fortunately Zheng was holding him, "Master, master, what's wrong with you, don't scare me." ”

Now the Zheng family can't control Li Xin'er so much, she has tried her best to help her, but if she wants to destroy herself, then she can't help it.

The guards at the city gate directly pressed Li Xin'er, intending to press her to the Hou Mansion, and at this moment, King Zhao led his soldiers to descend from the sky like a god.

"Xin'er, don't worry, I'm here to save you."

Li Xin'er said with tears in her eyes: "Brother Xiao, I knew you would come." ”

At this time, the city gate was closed, and many archers who had been in ambush for a long time appeared on the city gate tower, and said to King Zhao: "His Royal Highness King Zhao, without the summons of His Majesty, you dare to enter Beijing without permission?" ”

Before the soldier could finish his words, King Zhao pulled out a flare from his arms.

The soldiers surrounding King Zhao took out steel knives and stabbed King Zhao, the dozen or so people brought by King Zhao were the most elite under his banner, and at the same time, the secret soldiers that King Zhao had cultivated for so many years did not hesitate to be discovered, and they also had to light fires everywhere to cover King Zhao's departure.

On the city wall, a white-clothed figure fluttering, dressed in white, looked like a fairy-like figure with a contemptuous posture and watched the two sides fighting below, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said disdainfully: "Since ancient times, the red face has been in trouble, but I didn't expect that King Zhao, the god of war of the Shang Kingdom, could not escape the beauty pass." ”

There was a faint smile in the man's tone, and the man in black standing behind him bowed his head in reply.

"Ziqing, you did a good job this time."

The man in black was Zhou Ziqing who was reminded by Qin Siyu, he bowed his head humbly, although he was sorry for Qin Siyu, but he couldn't withstand his future, he took refuge in the man in white in front of him, knowing that the man was powerful, anyone who had different intentions, the man would use extremely cruel methods to deal with it, so he said respectfully: "I learned that the person who returned to the Great Zhou Kingdom of King Zhao was not Weichen, but Weichen's cousin, the daughter of Emperor Qin, who married to the Shang Kingdom, Qin Siyu." ”

"Qin Siyu?" The man looked down and swept past the fallen soldiers, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty desire.

He just came back from Shang Guo, but he has no impression of this name, as the princess of Shang Guozhao, but she lives like a transparent person, is she incompetent, or is she waiting for an opportunity?

When King Zhao broke out of the encirclement of the Great Zhou army, there were only two of his own soldiers left, they were covered in wounds, King Zhao was not much better, his clothes were stained red with blood, on the contrary, Li Xin'er was unharmed.

Li Xin'er choked up and said, "Why? Why is Brother Xiao so good to me? ”

King Zhao stroked Li Xin'er's white and tender cheeks, and said infatuatedly: "Because you are worthy, I am only so good to you." ”

The wound on King Zhao's body was infected and started a fever, Li Xin'er of course took the responsibility of taking care of King Zhao, the lonely man and widow stayed in the cave, especially when King Zhao was cold, Li Xin'er used his body to warm him, and he was the most beloved woman in his arms, King Zhao couldn't hold it, and asked Li Xin'er, and the two lingered in the cave for two days and two nights.

King Zhao's deeds of being angry at the crown spread all over the world, Li Xin'er lost her heart and lost her body, what else can she do except follow King Zhao? But she still had to keep her pride, she knew that King Zhao liked her like this.

Li Xin'er slapped King Zhao's shoulder a few times and said, "Don't think that I will live in the palace with you in this way, even if I go to Shangchi, I will be free." ”

King Zhao held Li Xin'er's little hand, put it to his lips and kissed it, and responded: "Yes, yes, you can do whatever you say, as long as you are willing to go back to Shangchi with me, you can do whatever you want, and you will be my only concubine at that time." ”

Hearing King Zhao say this, the light rising in Li Xin'er's eyes couldn't be hidden.

I'm sorry, Sister Qin, people don't kill for themselves, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame you for blocking my way.

At this time, Qin Siyu, who was rushing back to Zhaowang's Mansion, had an itchy nose and sneezed a few times, and the man sitting next to him frowned and leaned towards her silently.

King Zhao thought that Qin Siyu should be no longer there by then, with his mother's disgust for Qin Siyu, coupled with his request, I believe that his mother would do it for him.
