Chapter 43: Someone Poisoned?

"Master, you, what did you say?" Fang patted his chest, fortunately, her husband had already let all the subordinates go out, otherwise, when he heard these words, he wouldn't even be able to be a person in the mansion.

"Who knows what's going on with the road!" Li Mao sat down dejectedly, "It seems that it was rumored overnight, and an old friend of my eldest brother specially invited me to a private house, told me about it, and advised me not to do such a thing as destroying the city wall for the sake of the prosperity of the Duke of Xinguo in the future." I was so shocked that I could only insist that there was no such thing......"

He hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Did you get carried away and tell your mother's family about this?" โ€

"My lord! Is this a good thing? How dare I tell my mother? "Fang's stomach is aggrieved, when he did this lack of morality, obviously his husband also praised it! Now that something has happened, I wonder if she's not? "Did you drink too much during the entertainment and leaked your mouth?"

"Both of our brothers are the amount of alcohol that my father raised himself! My eldest brother can drink four or five big bowls, I am only more than my eldest brother and not less than him, and I can pour it until I don't know what I said, do you think it is possible? โ€

"But ......"

"Don't say anything about it! I was too carried away. As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival happened, our house was immediately put on the cusp, although the good reputation was gained, and the people's hearts were also gained, but they had a feud with the clan. No one knows that the influence of 'Weishuangtang' and 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms' is so great, and now I am afraid that they have made enemies on all sides. โ€

"Our house has always been low-key, and it is suddenly high-profile, and with such a good reputation, it is natural that there will be things in life. You just need to remember that even if we have done it, we must make it look like we have not done it, and it is definitely slander, and don't make any difference in front of Rui'er! โ€

Li Mao felt that his chest was churning with some qi and blood. Since the beginning of filial piety, everything has gone too smoothly, and now even the family greets him with a smile, which makes him vain and forget to take precautions. These guys are all old foxes with knives in their smiles, how can they be so careless?

"Recently, you don't want to go out to socialize, and those worship posts are also watched by relatives and relatives. Also, from now on, we can't make any mistakes, you know? โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Zhilu said. But do you really want Li Rui to get ahead like this in the future? He knows so many students now...... "Fang is really unwilling, she spent four or five years to gain Li Rui's trust little by little, and raised him so badly, not to become what he is now."

"Ignorance! Fearless! "Li Mao is already a little hysterical." Do you think everyone is blind? I finally got a foothold, and as soon as I stumbled, I couldn't recover, and now it's not as good as before, and there are people everywhere waiting to fall into the well! Even if there is no dirty water, we have to splash it, not to mention that we ourselves are not standing upright! โ€

"You haven't raised Li Rui for so many years, is it possible that now that he is sensible, he can be at your mercy? Not to mention that he will start walking in the palace after the year, even if he doesn't go, what can you do? Don't forget that neither of his uncles was vegetarian! โ€

Zhang Ning returned to Beijing, and even he has to deliberately get close to Zhang Ning now and have a good relationship.

Officials are still in the book! Most of the current noble children have been dismissed and knighted, and their eyes are red when they are waiting for serious errands! Can he convince this group of people just because he is a grandfather of the country? They are all waiting for him to take the lead in the battle with the world, and reap the benefits of it!

"Okay, okay, it's my fault, the old man is angry, I will really treat him as a good nephew in the future, can I be a good nephew?" Fang Shi was also afraid when he saw her husband showing such a terrifying expression.

Fortunately, no one found out that she had assassinated Li Rui...... Otherwise, her husband would definitely not be a two-throated thing now. Thinking of this, she hurriedly said aggrievedly:

"I can't reach out even if I want to, the old lady is so strict, the riding equipment I sent last time was thrown out. You say, did the old lady see it? โ€

Li Mao covered his eyes weakly.

"I'm afraid it's the whole world that can see it."

In the Qingcang Courtyard.

Li Rui, who gets up before dawn every day, naturally opened his eyes as soon as he arrived at that point.

After drinking the honey water that his grandmother instructed to prepare in the servant's room, Li Rui opened his mouth and ordered: "Prepare a permanent ...... for me."

"Uh......"

Li Rui felt that his throat was burning, and his voice was suddenly wrong. He swallowed, feeling only the pain of a fire.

Li Rui covered his throat and made a very painful expression.

Cangxi and Canglan stepped forward very worriedly.

"Young Master, what's wrong? Do you want to go to Dr. Hu to have a look? โ€

Li Rui looked at the two girls with defensive eyes, and silenced them.

Li Rui's heart set off a storm. During this time, his throat was only a little itchy, so he didn't pay much attention to it. But when I woke up this morning, it hurt to open my mouth. The sound is also particularly strange. He thought that he was not tired during this time, and there was no cold or flu, and his body was even stronger enough to defeat one or two strong men, and it was definitely not the reason for his illness.

Could it be that his aunt found out about his stumbling block, and simply broke the jar and broke it, which was about to kill him?

No, no, no, now he is no better than before, countless pairs of eyes inside and outside the mansion are staring, unless her aunt is crazy, she will never do such a thing.

That is, to poison him? That's a yes thing. No matter how talented he is, it is in vain if he can't speak. There are many eyes and ears in his Qingcang Courtyard, and it is very easy to poison him.

It's just that after Cangxi Canglan, who was arranged by his uncle's house, came, his close service had already been replaced by these two girls......

Who were these two girls bought? Or are they also blinded and uninformed?

Where does the poison go? Is it in honey, or in water? Or is it on the jade cup? He's been suffering from a throat discomfort for four or five days, maybe not from the honey water. Could it be a chronic poison that has only flinched until now?

"Less...... Master, don't look at us like that, it's scary. Cang Lan said tremblingly.

Li Rui's two martial arts masters have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they have learned a skill in the army, that is, "murderous energy".

The two martial arts masters taught Li Rui how to exercise his eyes and expressions, and his eyes sometimes played a key role in deterring the enemy. Later, the generals in his house were impressed by him because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and sometimes they would come over to learn from them, and they would also teach Li Rui all his unique skills.

After a long time, his momentum gradually developed.

Li Rui's "murderous aura" can't be retracted freely, and sometimes he can't be retracted all of a sudden, and his expression is quite scary.

Since Li Rui was wounded last time, he didn't believe in Dr. Hu in the house at all. After listening to the advice of the two girls, he got up quietly, dressed, washed, and went to Zhiyun Courtyard without even eating.

If the aunt didn't want his life, then he would have had time to save himself. Grandma has a sign to enter the palace, if not, find a doctor, the matter is big, and it completely tears up the aunt's face!

In Zhiyun Courtyard, Gu Qing was eating the newly made crystal shrimp dumplings in the kitchen, when he suddenly heard the mother-in-law outside the second gate reporting at the door.

"Young Master Rui hurriedly came to the Zhiyun Courtyard."

It's a strange thing to come early in the morning. Well, when you think about it, the ducks are too fat to walk, so shouldn't it be time to call Derpy and Chubby to catch them that day? So fat, take the fruit wood to roast, make a roast duck should taste good, right?

She was thinking about various ways to eat duck, and in a blink of an eye, Li Rui had already entered the house with a dozen curtains.

As soon as Gu Qing stood up, Li Rui rushed to her and knelt down.

He said in a hoarse and choked voice:

"Grandma save me!" !!

Everyone in the room was amazed. Gu Qing suppressed the shock in her heart, and hurriedly asked all the people to go down, leaving only Mama Hua, Mama Sun and Xiangyun in the room.

The other subordinates bowed down with all kinds of shocked expressions, Xiangyun stood by the curtain, holding the door, and Gu Qing went to pick up Li Rui, who was trembling all over.

"Don't cry, tell grandma something...... Hey? โ€

There were no tears on Li Rui's face. The trembling of his shoulders was due to the fact that he had clenched his fists with both hands, so hard that he almost gritted his teeth.

"My grandson didn't cry." Li Rui raised his head and stood up.

In his eyes, pain, helplessness, unwillingness and anger were constantly intertwined, but a child of thirteen or fourteen years old had such complex feelings in his eyes.

Such a Li Rui had to move Gu Qing.

"What the hell is going on? You calm down before you talk to me. โ€

Gu Qing comforted Li Rui while following Li Rui's back. He was taller than her now, and if she wanted to touch Li Rui's head as before, she had to raise her hand, because her hand would be sore, so she gradually changed to follow his back.

All the critters will be happy and relaxed when they are petted on their backs.

Li Rui took a deep breath, his eyes shining as if something was burning. He bared his teeth and smiled softly, and the neat teeth touched as if they were biting, and finally came out.

"I was drugged." He hoarsely said in his throat, "It hurts to speak." โ€

Gu Qing was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled him to the window to the bright place.

"Grandma Sun, bring two lamps. Mama Hua, go get my palace card and post again, and ask for a doctor in the hospital. โ€

The Imperial Physician is different from the Imperial Physician, and all those who serve in the Imperial Hospital are all Imperial Physicians. But only the best of them, those who specialize in treating the royal family, can be called royal doctors. Gu Qing is Mrs. Guo, according to her level, she can ask for a second-class "doctor", and she is a clever doctor second only to the imperial doctor.

"Xiangyun, tell your subordinates to prepare cow's milk or goat's milk. Bring some warm water. "Most of the ancient poisons were heavy metal components, if you swallow a large amount of cow's or goat's milk, you can alleviate the poisoning reaction and prevent the human body's protein from being destroyed by heavy metals. Water is needed to rehydrate after vomiting.

Grandma Sun held the lamp high, Gu Qing picked up a thin spoon, pressed the root of Li Rui's tongue with the handle of the spoon, and looked at it carefully.

This, like?

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ Mama Hua, you don't have to go to the doctor. Forget it, let's ask for one, and confirm it. Gu Qing looked at Li Rui's throat with amusement, and was really relieved. Li Rui's throat does have congestion and not too serious edema, and there is a lot of secretion, but it doesn't look like it is caused by any drug.

Re-linked to his age......

"You stayed up late last night? Or sleep late? Gu Qing asked as if she had helped children see a doctor in her previous life.

Li Rui nodded. I read a book for a while last night, and I didn't sleep until the second watch.

"Now my throat hurts when I speak, and I can't breathe?"

Li Rui nodded again.

The servant had already brought up the goat's milk and warm water, Gu Qing asked Li Rui to drink the bowl of goat milk, drank a few more glasses of water, and drank Li Rui until he was full, and then smiled at Li Rui with a confused face:

"If Grandma's guess is right, you shouldn't be poisoned."

"Not poisoning?"

"Yes, but grandma can't be sure. Let's wait for the Imperial Doctor to come. โ€

In the North Garden, because of Li Rui's sudden visit, he suddenly asked for goat's milk and warm water, and Mrs. Qiu also went to ask for a doctor. I think of the sentence when Young Master Rui rushed into the hospital, "Grandma save me!" The people began to speculate.

Fortunately, Gu Qing didn't show a panicked appearance, and Xiangyun, who was guarding the door and dispatching everyone, didn't look like he had something in his heart, which suppressed everyone's fear.

About half an hour later, the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital quickly entered the house and directly entered the Zhiyun Courtyard.

Fang, who got the news in the Splendid Courtyard, was so shocked and frightened that he didn't even put on the coat outside, and went directly to the Zhiyun Courtyard with the girl's mother-in-law. Li Mao went to the court early in the morning, and she didn't even have anyone to discuss now.

Just kidding, there were rumors outside that were unfavorable to their husband and wife, and now what kind of moth is Li Rui doing? Now even if he loses a hair, the whole world will think that she did it!

She is a dignified duchess, will she shrink into the mansion forever in the future? Not only can Li Rui be fine, but now she has to be better than before, otherwise she won't want to walk with her head up for the rest of her life!

"Mrs. Tai's guess is right, the eldest prince of the house is indeed starting to grow, he is about to grow an Adam's apple, and it is normal for changes to occur at this time. This situation may last for half a year, or it may be a year or two, depending on the person. "The imperial doctor is a little funny, in this case, the adults in the family will usually tell you, and when you get to the point of inviting the imperial doctor, you can only say that the adults in this family are too confused.

"The eldest prince must not be tired, not loud, and drink more water before the voice is completely changed, otherwise the voice may be broken in the future, and there may be as sharp as a child, then it will be troublesome. I don't have to prescribe the medicine to moisten the throat, and the pills that Huang Yuyi prescribed to Mrs. Tai last time to moisten the lungs are also symptomatic, so you can use that. โ€

Fang Shi listened to the words of the Imperial Doctor on the side, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he turned to a deep rage.

It's just an adult, is it possible that if you grow an Adam's apple in the future, โ–กโ–ก it will become bigger, and you have to ask a doctor to take a look?

What a fuss!

Anyway, Li Rui was embarrassed and angry when he made such an oolong, and after the imperial doctor left, he ran back to Qingcang Courtyard in embarrassment.

Gu Qing originally wanted him to take his younger brother to catch a few ducks that had been cultivated as "old ducks", but Li Rui ran too fast, so he had to give up.

Hey, it's a pity, but I think duck soup is actually good for your throat.

Let's see if Derpy is available. When the grandson grows up, he doesn't want to play with his grandmother, and life is really lonely like snow.

Li Rui's troubles about his voice lasted for a long time, which directly changed his personality.

His voice wasn't as clear as it was now, but it wasn't as unpleasant as it is now. Even if his voice is hoarse, if he talks too much, his throat will be uncomfortable and his breathing will be unbearable.

Every time he heard the sound of being pinched like a duck, Li Rui wondered if he had caught too many ducks and had bad retribution. Recently, I even started to mention my younger brother, telling my younger brother not to always listen to his grandmother to catch ducks.

For the sake of his image, he had to start "cherishing words like gold".

Most of the friends he made were seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys, and there were also people like Qi Shao who had a witty personality or liked to play pranks. They had already finished their voices, and when they saw that Li Rui was going through the tragic history they had had, they all felt funny in their hearts, so they always teased him to talk more.

"Is your voice feeling better today? Did Mrs. Guifu say the Three Kingdoms last night? โ€

"Yes."

"Which one?"

"One hundred and three times."

"What did you say last night, can you tell me?"

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ No. โ€

"And what about the books you copied? Borrow me to copy? โ€

"Borrowed."

"Who borrowed it, you dare to be in front of me! See if I don't ......."

"My uncle."

"Hehe, hehe, when I didn't say it, when I didn't say it."

"Li Rui, is your voice better today?"

"Yes."

"What happened to the angry beating of Chu Yingyuan last time? It's rumored outside now that it's because Chu Yingyuan's eyes are dark at night and he teased your grandmother, and as a result, you beat the frivolous man angrily? We think it's nonsense, tell us about it. โ€

"Lack of morality."

"Hey, why are you scolding?"

"Talking about people behind your back, lack of morality."

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆ What is that fighting for, just for a lamp? โ€

"Hmm."

The son of General Fenwu's family leaned his head over and said in a very low voice: "Is the county lord of the Xiangwang family good-looking?" I heard you beat her up? โ€

"Roll !!" Li Rui finally couldn't help but yell.

There are many things like this, and Li Rui was so amused that he had to hide in the house and no longer go out, lying that he was busy at the end of the year and wanted to help deal with family affairs, so he escaped their clutches.

As a result, his group of friends stopped teasing him, but his grandmother repeatedly made him ruined.

"Rui'er, you went out to go out with those friends, did you see any beautiful girls?" Gu Qing's cough had already improved most of the time, but his throat was itchy as soon as it was cold, so the two of them took the throat moisturizing pills prescribed by Imperial Doctor Huang together.

Thinking about it this way, their grandparents and grandchildren can be regarded as "patients" in another situation.

"Nope."

"How so? Haven't seen a girl yet? โ€

"Hmm."

The lady is not a cabbage, can you see it anywhere?

"There's no little girl dressed as a man to play with you?" Gu Qing blinked curiously, this is how it is played in TV series and novels.

"I can't see it." It's said that it's a woman dressed as a man, what does he want to see! He can't pick other people's clothes!

"You can see pierced ears!"

"Don't look." Who wouldn't have to look into their friend's ear! It's not hysteria!

"I said, grandson, can you not be so concise? Grandma, I haven't talked to you well for almost a few months, and I finally waited until my throat didn't hurt anymore, and you didn't go out to play, why didn't you talk to grandma now? โ€

"Sore throat."

'I think my face hurts, right?' Gu Qing was secretly happy in her heart, when Li Rui just found out that her throat had become bad, she rushed to her hospital in a panic and said that she was poisoned, she still remembered it clearly.

How did he say it?

"Grandma, help!"

Burst!

Didn't any mother-in-law talk to him about the voice change period? It's so pitiful for a child without a father or mother. Maybe Li Ming knows what to do. If it weren't for the fear that it would be too shocking, I really wanted to popularize the education of adolescence for him.

Let's go back and talk to Li Mao, and let Li Mao pay attention to this aspect. If you change your voice, you are about to transform.

"I'm going to enter the palace at the beginning of spring next year, are you afraid?" Gu Qing has always felt that a place like the palace is a place that destroys people, and he doesn't know which prince Li Rui will go to be a companion. Now the emperor has four princes, and his biological mothers are all from big families, so it seems that it is not good to read to any of them.

Why can't you leak out a palace girl's child? Isn't that how it is played in TV dramas? What kind of palace maid with a tough personality and outstanding appearance endured humiliation and burden, and finally gave birth to a prince, one step to the sky or something......

How can they all be born to concubines?

"Don't be afraid." Li Rui shook his head. Some of the friends he has made now are relatives, and he has already roughly inquired, except for the eldest prince born to the queen and the second prince born to Concubine Xian who are about ten years old, the third prince and the fourth prince are still young, and it is not time to find a companion to study.

The queen was born in the Zhang family of Jinyang, and the virtuous concubine was born in the Liu family in Jingnan, both of them have an old relationship with his family and will not deliberately embarrass him.

"You're not afraid, I'm worried. Originally, I wanted to tell you to be cautious in your words and deeds, but now I'm afraid you don't want to. Gu Qing smiled and quipped, "If you are willing to say more words to grandma now, grandma will be happy for a long time." โ€

Li Rui: ......

He'd better go back to the small playground to practice boxing.

said that Li Mao's entry into the palace at the beginning of the year was indeed a major event in the Xinguo Mansion.

Not only did the people who believed in the Guogong Mansion and other families with meritorious deeds widen their eyes, wondering who Li Rui would read to him in the most important way, but even the current saint, Chu Rui, the emperor of Great Chu, was worried about what to do.

He originally wanted to leave Li Rui to the eldest emperor, Chu Xin. His eldest emperor is ten years old, and he doesn't show anything very outstanding at present, but his personality is very gentle, and he shouldn't have any contradictions with Li Rui. In addition, he is only Li Rui's widowed son, and he will not be able to inherit the Xinguo Mansion in the future, and he will be accompanied by the eldest emperor, his background can appease the queen's relatives, but it will not bring any practical help to Chu Xin.

He is now in the prime of life, and he can wait a few more years, when the harem is balanced and the previous dynasty is stable, he wants to see who is the more suitable candidate for the storage position among the children.

Originally, all this was thought of properly, and the queen was also happy to see it. But in the past six months, the limelight of the Xinguo Mansion has really been too prosperous, to the point that he has to think twice.

Originally, the eldest emperor was both a concubine and a long, although he was not talented, but he already occupied the title of "orthodox". If the queen's maiden family was not the Jinyang Zhang family, he would have already made him the crown prince.

Even if he has been pressing for a long time, there are still many excerpts every year who ask for an early deposit. Whether it is a nobleman, a lonely minister or a family, it is always inappropriate to keep his eyes on his sons, and it is always inappropriate to set up a prince.

Although the reputation of the Xinguo Mansion is flourishing now, fortunately, it is all on Mrs. Qiu. Although for so many years, it has been rumored that Mrs. Qiu is illiterate and shallow, but he has been friends with the Li family for decades and knows the character and heart of Mr. and Mrs. Li. And from Li Shuo and Li Meng's respect for the Qiu family, it can be seen that this old lady Qiu is by no means an ordinary woman.

But how unusual it is, the recent change is too unexpected.

"That Qiu's shooting" did not surprise him, after all, Li Laoguo Gong has been in the army all his life, and as the wife of a general, it is common sense that she has always tried to alleviate the discomfort of her husband and children and grandchildren when they draw bows and shoot arrows.

But "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has to be taken seriously. This book should indeed be the proud work of Li Laoguogong, otherwise Qiu's illiterate woman would not have memorized it backwards. He also read this book, although he fell ill before he finished recording, but judging from the content today, he is still very satisfied.

Because this is a book that preaches "orthodoxy".

The many praises for "Shu Han" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as well as the disparagement of Cao Cao, who "coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes", can be seen from this. And many families in Jiangdong, Sun Quan's various balancing actions in it also resonated with him, the emperor who faced persecution from all sides as soon as he ascended the throne.

His father was friendly with all parties, and Li Guogong had a heavy army to suppress the clans, so it was natural that he could put these clans in different positions, slowly differentiate, and slowly figure them out. Who knew that his father was assassinated when he was on patrol, Li Meng was poisoned and died, and the old man was sad and couldn't afford to get sick, his father had phlegm in his early years, and the old man was sick, and his pressure increased dramatically, and he went in less than two years.

Things are moving so fast. His father had buried so many threads before, and so many of the back hands that had been left behind, they were all messed up at once. This chaos also made him completely feel how shallow his foundation is and how difficult the future is.

Compared with these great clans that have been inherited for hundreds of years, his Chu clan is as ridiculous as a nouveau riche.

If it weren't for the fact that they were the first to rebel and the first to defeat Jingnan, and they were expected to return, they stood on their heels, and they didn't know what their surname would be in the world.

Chu Rui looked at the "Qiu's wrench" in his hand.

He is willing to use Li Mao because he has a peaceful personality, his talent is mediocre, and he wants to make achievements that are not weaker than his father and brother, if such a person has no power to rely on, and he doesn't want to be nameless, he can only stand closely behind him and be a sword and a gun in his hand.

If the clan is really powerful and irretrievable, throwing out the gang to be an abandoned son can also save the situation.

But he miscalculated that the nobles wanted to hold the real power*. Even a mediocre person like Li Mao, he can be raised high by them, coupled with the influence of Qingliu and the neutral faction in the court, now the Xungui faction also has the tendency to fight against the clan faction. He originally thought that when he could fight against it, it would take a year or two.

Later, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was very popular from top to bottom, and Li Laoguo Gong was also worshiped as a "martial god" in the army, and some soldiers even secretly painted portraits to worship, which added the prestige of the Xinguo Mansion to a new height. If there are no good people and nobles in this, then he doesn't believe it at all.

But what could he stop? Li Laoguo never leaked a penny during his lifetime, and even handed over the military power generously. Now is he going to have to deal with a dead man about prestige?

Compared with "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the impact of Weishuangtang is insignificant. It's just a group of students, even if the Xinguo Mansion is enveloped, and the care is too good, he doesn't need to be cold.

What is the matter of the students, originally the Hanlin in the Hanlin Academy were all the hidden faces carried by his father and Li Meng, but now there are many factions in the imperial court, and many Hanlin are about to become white, but the position has not been vacant. If Li Mao can really help him balance the court, even if he makes friends with students and cultivates power, it will be beneficial and harmless to him.

The current Xinguo Mansion is still too weak.

It's a pity that Zhang Ning, who was promoted from outside, was originally a member of the clan, but now he is swaying from side to side, and he doesn't know which side Lu Dao wants to be loyal to.

He originally thought that the Xinguo Mansion had an in-law relationship with him, and he would always be inclined to one or two, but he was impartial, neither offending the family nor the nobles.

He is obviously an emperor, but he is constrained in doing things, and he has to consider the power of all parties everywhere. Even he proposed several times that he wanted to re-measure the land, calculate the number of tenants and hidden households in the world, and redistribute the farmland, but he failed repeatedly.

These private households sell themselves to the family, do not have to pay taxes, do not need to serve, and hide their household registration, which has become a serious problem.

Li Laoguo once said to his father, "The people's hearts are easy to gain, the people's hearts are easy to lose, and the people's hearts are ...... Easy to deceive. "As long as a little wind blows, the people's hearts can change.

When Chu Rui thought about it, he suddenly lost most of his anger towards the Xinguo Mansion. These clans are just for their own interests, they can ignore the law of the king of Sheji, and now they are in ruins, they need money everywhere, the land is barren, there is no one to plant, and he has to work lightly and recuperate......

If this continues, the harm of these national moths will be greater than that of the Xinguo Mansion that is high-profile on the surface. Li Mao is just a name, but these people are profit, power, and country!

Instead of thinking about how to weaken the influence of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Weishuangtang" in the Guogong Mansion, it is better to think about what to do to make these two things beneficial to him.

It's better than this......

Xinguo Mansion, in the Qingcang Courtyard.

Li Rui, who was reading the military book "Liutao", suddenly got a report from his subordinates, saying that his uncle Li Mao invited him to go to the front yard to "gather virtuous and elegant words".

It was the place where my uncle handled official business, and idlers were not allowed to trespass, and there were many generals guarding the door.

What did he do there, who was so begotten?

When he arrived at "Jixian Yaxu", his uncle stopped talking to him, wanted to open his mouth several times, and sighed while pacing, making his second monk puzzled.

Whether his uncle was suspected of conniving at the Fang clan or not, it was always his elders. Li Rui respectfully waited for Li Mao's admonition, and did not dare to be a little slacking in his attitude.

Li Rui was sluggish at a young age, and then he lost his heart, and the sky fell overnight, and he couldn't wait to go with his parents. At this time, my grandfather was already sick, and when the bad news of his parents spread, he was even more terminally ill and unable to return to heaven. Grandmother served day and night, never leaving an inch, less than a year, boiled into a skinny woman, obviously just reached the age of sixties, but looked like a sixty-year-old man, will be raised for so many years, the body is still not very good.

At that time, his grandfather and grandmother couldn't take care of him, and his subordinates and relatives looked at him with pity, only these two elders took care of him considerately, and even raised him personally, hugged him to his knees, and regarded him as his own child, which slowly soothed the pain in his heart.

Although he later learned that they wanted to nurture him by doing this, so they indulged and doted on him a lot, but he has really lived a very happy life for so many years.

It is precisely because of this that when his grandmother tells the truth, he will be so painful, and even his temperament will change greatly. The price of growing up is so miserable, and he doesn't know whether it is better for him to live a happy life, or to face his uncle with "admiration" like now, but his heart is as calm as water.

Behind the desk, Li Mao also looked at his nephew with mixed feelings.

He still remembered how terrified he was when he first held his nephew when he was a little baby, and he was afraid that he would break his neck even if he exhaled softly.

He had imagined that the eldest brother would give birth to a bunch of sons, and so would he be, and the Xinguo Mansion would prosper from their generation, so as to beat the faces of those who laughed at the withering population of their family and had no successors.

He is not as smart as his eldest brother, and his martial arts are not as good as his father, but his children may not.

He and his eldest brother are compatriots, his sister-in-law is a good housekeeper, and his wife is gentle and knowledgeable, and the house will be harmonious, and when the children and grandchildren become talents in the future, he can also be worthy of the ancestors and ancestors.

But in a trance, he was the only one left in the Xinguo Mansion to support the door business, and the eldest brother only left one son, and he had been married for ten years and had no heirs.

The Xinguo Mansion is still as funny as those people laughed at back then, and there is no successor.

His eldest brother as the heir is extremely talented, he is the second son, although his qualifications are mediocre, but there is nothing. But now that the brother at the top of the doorpost has fallen, his mediocrity has become a sin.

Why did he want to raise his nephew? Is it inferiority? Is it worried? Is it the resentment that has been hidden in my heart for so many years, the resentment towards my brother? He couldn't tell himself.

Since last year, Li Rui has been growing taller at an astonishing rate, and he is also rapidly losing weight as he learns martial arts and archery, controls his diet, and smokes for various reasons.

When he could see his facial features clearly, Li Mao would even tremble when he looked at his nephew's face.

Li Rui's face was almost the same as that of his brother when he was fourteen or fifteen. Even the look of the frowning brow, the look of the eyes when he occasionally thought sideways, was as if Li Meng was possessed.

He was five years apart from his brother, and when he was a child, his brother didn't see any difference from him, he was just a teenager who had grown a little older. The elder brother looks like his grandmother, and he looks like his father, although the elder brother is much more handsome than him, but the boy does not rely on his face to earn a future. His brother was the eldest son, and he had experienced war, so he was more stable and reliable than him, and everyone took it for granted.

But since his brother was taken away by the military advisor and studied with many children of the family, he began to shine to the point of making him ashamed of himself.

How old are you? It seems to be the same age as Li Rui now.

It seems that his nephew Li Rui, like his brother, is destined to be buried before he is a teenager, and he will start to emerge at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

If it was just a similar appearance, which made him dare not look directly at Li Rui's face, then Li Rui's gradually growing taller and such terrifying strength made him even more anxious.

He was tall and strong, and he was born with amazing strength, which was his father's trait.

These two talents were neither passed on to his brother nor to him. His little brother, who died early, was even more thin and petite, and there was absolutely no inheritance.

Sometimes looking at Li Rui's back, his heart will ache like a heartache. That's the father of one size younger.

I don't know if my mother has already seen the shadow of my father and brother in Li Rui's body, so she loves him so much. If he really grows up, enters the palace, and sees Li Rui with such a look, who wouldn't love him?

That's Li Meng's face.

It's like a curse from God, he did something wrong, and now he has to be reminded in such a cruel way. His nephew looks like his brother who died young, but his body and strength are similar to his father......

Seeing Li Rui, it was like accepting the reprimand of his father and brother at the same time, which made him suffer a lot in his heart.

He never even said this feeling to his wife and mother.

And now...... Such a he, such a he......

Inexplicably agreed to the old lady to teach her nephew that knowledge? Tell him about the changes he should have as an adult?

He felt that the whole person was not good.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Li Rui practiced murderous spirit.

Li Rui: I'm glaring, I'm glaring, I'm glaring!

The ducks (leisurely walking away): Quack?
