Chapter 2 Is the princess so good?

Li Jie felt that he really responded to that sentence, "The unlucky mother opened the door for the unlucky one, and the unlucky arrived home."

Finally crossed over once, and became Li Shanchang's grandson, next year Li Shanchang's whole family will be beheaded by the whole house, and he, who is a grandson, will definitely not escape this knife, which makes him want to look up to the sky and yell: "Thief God, are you TM playing with me?" ”

"Cousin, what month is it now?" After a long while, Li Jie asked weakly, the facts were powerless to change, and now he just begged God to give him more time, so as to find a way to save his life.

"It's the winter moon now, and it's going to be the wax moon in a few days." Liu Yi didn't know why Li Jie asked this, but he still answered truthfully.

Li Jie almost cried when he heard this, he remembered that Li Shanchang's family was beheaded in May of the twenty-third year of Hongwu, and it was almost December now, that is to say, he still had half a year to do.

"Cousin, what's wrong with you?" Liu Yi saw that Li Jie's expression was wrong, and asked very worriedly, he was really afraid that Li Jie's old illness would recur, and if he went crazy again, it would be troublesome.

"I'm fine, cousin, you tell me to be quiet!" Li Dao covered his face with his hands and rubbed it a few times to calm himself down.

Liu Yi didn't dare to stimulate Li Jie too much, so he also sat patiently and waited.

Li Jie was so confused at the beginning that he couldn't think calmly, but in the end, he forced himself to calm down, carefully analyzed the current situation, and finally came to a conclusion.

Now there are only two ways in front of Li Jie, the first is to accept his fate, taking advantage of the fact that there is still half a year to eat, all the delicious food, all the delicious drinks, and all the fun plays, half a year later, the family was neatly pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market, and the head was cut off with a "click", it is said that as long as the knife is fast enough, the head will not die immediately if it falls off, and then he may be able to verify it himself.

As for the second way, that is, Li Jie took advantage of his own traverser to use the past half a year to change his life against the sky and escape from Zhu Yuanzhang, a skin-peeling maniac.

Li Jie carefully considered both paths, and finally felt as if the first path was more attractive to him, not that he didn't want to live, but that the second path was too difficult.

It is recorded in the history books that Li Shanchang was implicated in the Hu Weiyong case and killed, but in fact, when Li Shanchang was killed, a full decade had passed since the Hu Weiyong case.

In addition, when the Hu Weiyong case broke out, Li Shanchang's younger brother Li Cunyi and Hu Weiyong were in-laws, and they also participated in the Hu Weiyong case, but even so, Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill Li Cunyi, let alone blame Li Shanchang for this, but it was not until ten years later that Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly attacked, saying that Li Shanchang participated in Hu Weiyong's rebellion and ordered the Li family to be beheaded, which does not make sense at all.

In other words, Li Shanchang's killing actually involved some power struggles in the court, and these power struggles have aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's dissatisfaction, which has led to murderous intentions, which is the main reason why Li Shanchang caused trouble.

For the battle in the court, Li Jie can't intervene at all, even if he is the grandson of Li Shanchang, not to mention that the opposite is Zhu Yuanzhang, this is a ruthless person who came out of the bottom of society and became the emperor all the way, and it is difficult to change the decision of this kind of person.

Of course, it is not completely hopeless to want to survive from Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, for example, Li Shanchang's family, although they are all over the house, Li Shanchang has a son who survived, because his son married a princess, although Zhu Yuanzhang is ruthless, but he is still very kind to his children, so if Li Jie wants to live, there is a ready-made way.

"Cousin, is the princess easy to marry?" Li Jie finally raised his head and asked Liu Yi with a serious face.

"How do you ask this question, do you have thoughts about the princess?" Liu Yi also asked with a confused expression, Li Jie's thinking was too jumpy, and he felt that he couldn't keep up.

"It's a bit of an idea, I'm also the prime minister's grandson, it's not too much to marry a princess, right?" Li Jie asked tentatively.

"The princess is not married, only Princess Shang, and there is no such thing as marrying a princess." Liu Yi corrected.

"Okay, is the princess good?" Li Jie is as good as a stream, but why does this sentence sound a little wrong?

"Cousin, you think too much, although there are many princesses of Your Majesty, but there are more people who want to be princesses, your fifth uncle has already had a princess, so it is basically impossible for the Li family to have a second concubine, not to mention that you are not the eldest grandson of the concubine, but the side branch of the concubine......"

With Liu Yi's explanation, Li Jie realized that his father Li Zhu was not Li Shanchang's son-in-law, but a concubine born to a concubine, and during this period of the Ming Dynasty, the son of the concubine did not have a high status in the family, so Li Zhu was not usually treated by Li Shanchang.

As for Li Jie's desire to marry the princess, not to mention, the gap in identity is too big, let alone him, even his father Li Zhu is not qualified, only his fifth uncle is qualified.

"No wonder I was so sick, but my grandfather didn't come at all, I guess he doesn't remember my grandson, right?" Li Jie pondered for a moment and muttered to himself again.

"You are wrong, and I am sure your grandfather must remember you, because it was because of him that your illness began." Liu Yi sighed when he heard Li Jie's words.

"What is my cause?" Li Jie once again showed a surprised expression when he heard this.

"This matter is a long story, and it also involves several elders in your family, so it is inconvenient for my aunt to tell you, so I can only tell you......"

Liu Yi sighed again, and then told Li Jie some things.

Li Jie's father, Li Zhu, is the son of Li Shanchang's concubine, the third in the family, because he is a concubine, coupled with Li Jie's grandmother's early death, so Li Zhu is not valued at home, and even when he was young, he was often bullied at home, until he married Li Jie's mother when he became an adult, and then moved to live outside, but it was also a lot quieter.

However, at the end of last year, it happened to be Li Shanchang's seventy-fourth birthday, and Li Zhu took Li Jie back to Li's mansion to celebrate his birthday, but at the birthday banquet, he happened to meet Li Zhu's second brother Li Li.

Li Li is a concubine, he has always looked down on Li Zhu, and he bullied Li Zhu at the beginning, and at the time of this birthday banquet, he was also sneering at Li Zhu, originally Li Zhu didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't hear Li Li's words.

But Li Zhu forgot that Li Jie next to him was young and vigorous, seeing that his father was being bullied, he immediately took the case and scolded Li Li a few words, Li Li couldn't argue with Li Jie, he was unreasonable, and commanded his three sons to come forward and beat Li Jie, and even when Li Zhu stepped forward to fight, he was punched a few times by his nephew, and his nose was bleeding.

It stands to reason that as a father and grandfather, even if he can't make a bowl of water, he can't be too partial, after all, this matter was originally Li Li's fault, and he beat people up, even if it was to the government, they were also the one who was to lose.

However, Li Shanchang only had Li Li, the son-in-law, in his eyes, and regarded Li Zhu's father and son as slaves at all, so he immediately didn't ask about the innocent, and directly asked Li Jie to arrest and practice the family law, on the grounds that he committed the following crimes and contradicted the elders, but it was clear that Li Li's son beat Li Zhu, but he turned a blind eye.

In the end, poor Li Jie was beaten with twenty boards, Li Zhu felt sorry for his son, and lay on Li Jie to take the board for him, but Li Shanchang did not have the slightest soft-heartedness, and even beat their father and son together, and finally expelled their father and son from the birthday banquet, and even the birthday gift prepared by Li Zhu was thrown out.

Li Jie is the only son of Li Zhu and his wife, usually pampered, plus Li Jie is very smart, he entered the country at a young age to study, and he is also quite famous among young people, so he is also a little arrogant, but this time he was humiliated in his grandfather's house, and this blow is almost devastating for a teenager.

In fact, it's normal to think about it, Li Jie is only fifteen years old this year, in the words of later generations, he is in adolescence, his physiology and psychology are not perfect, and now he is mentally stimulated so much, he can't bear it psychologically, and there is a special disease in medicine, called adolescent schizophrenia, which is a psychological disease unique to adolescent teenagers.

In this case, Li Jie went crazy soon after returning home, that is, the madness in the mouth of Dr. Xu, who was usually very smart, but he could no longer read books, and was usually in a daze, or sleeping with his head covered, disheveled, filthy, or laughing at the mirror, talking to himself, and even sometimes beating people and smashing things when he was crazy.

As for what happened after Li Jie went crazy, there is no need to go into detail, anyway, just today, Li Jie went crazy again and ran out, but accidentally fell into the river and drowned, and then Li Jie crossed over.

After listening to the above, Li Jie once again showed a contemplative expression, he didn't expect the situation in his family to be so complicated, and he didn't expect that his predecessor was driven crazy by Li Shanchang.

However, no matter how bad the relationship between his family and Li Shanchang is, he can't change the blood relationship, so after half a year, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape the knife.

Thinking of this, Li Jie was also a little speechless, even if he couldn't touch Li Shanchang's light, he would be discriminated against and bullied by him, and even implicated in the end to accompany him to the funeral, which was too much of a loss.
