There must be something going on at home! Li Jie was lying in the bedroom in the old house, and his mind was also thinking about the performance of his parents during today's dinner, although Li Zhu and his wife tried their best to hide it, but with Li Jie's cleverness, they could naturally see the unnaturalness in their eyes at a glance, especially when he mentioned going to the ancestral grave to worship, his father's performance was more obvious.

However, Li Zhu and his wife were reluctant to say more, so Li Jie didn't ask, no matter what the problem was, he had already gone home anyway, and he would definitely let himself know when the time came.

Li Jie slept very well this night, although he came here for the first time, but the place with his family is home, especially for Li Jie, who has been wandering outside for many days, this feeling of peace of mind is quite good, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already three poles outside, and Di'er was lying on his bedside waiting for him to wake up.

"Di'er, why did you wake up so early?" Li Jie couldn't help but smile when he saw Di'er blinking with a pair of big eyes, this girl is a little lazy at home, and sometimes she can sleep until noon.

"I miss my brother!" Di'er showed two rows of small white teeth and smiled.

Hearing her sister's heartwarming words, Li Jie couldn't help but stretch out her hand and rub her little head, Di'er also grinned, she used to like to be with Li Jie the most, and even pestered him to tell her stories at night before she was willing to sleep, but since she came here, she hasn't seen her brother for a long time.

Li Jie also sat up from the bed, got dressed and chatted with Di'er while washing, although the little girl was small, but she talked a lot, and she was only willing to say a lot of things to Li Jie, now that she has been holding back for so long, she is naturally annoyed and all of them have been said, of course, they are all children's things, such as she wants to raise a puppy, but Aunt Zhao disagrees, so she is very angry and so on.

Li Jie listened with relish, and interjected from time to time to express his opinions, which also attracted Di'er to become more and more energetic. In fact, for Li Jie, he has been intriguing with people outside all the year round, and he has to think twice about even speaking, that kind of life is far from what he wants, and now he can say whatever he wants with Di'er so freely, but it is a rare relaxation.

After washing, Li Jie went to have breakfast, at this time Li Zhu and his wife and Aunt Zhao found him, saying that they were going to take him around Dingyuan County, Li Jie also thought that the family had not gone out together for a long time, so he also nodded happily, Li Zhu asked people to prepare a carriage, and the whole family went out together, and it took a day to turn the entire Dingyuan County, and Mrs. Li and Aunt Zhao also bought a lot of things for Li Jie.

It wasn't until the evening that Li Jie and his family returned home, but they didn't expect that there were guests at home to visit, and it was the county magistrate of Dingyuan County who learned the news of Li Jie's return and visited him in person.

Li Jie and his father Li Zhu came to the living room to see the county commander, Dingyuan county commander is a short and fat middle-aged man, surnamed Huang, when he saw Li Jie, he immediately stepped forward to salute, and he also tried his best to stammer, after all, he had already inquired clearly, Li Jie is not only the prince's companion, but also the prince's son-in-law, and was recently named Jing Haibo, any of these three names can crush him to death, so of course he has to be careful to serve, for fear of offending Li Jie.

Li Jie didn't have a good impression of this Huang County Order, and felt that the other party was too slippery, but considering that his parents lived here and his hometown was also here, he still cheered up and dealt with the other party a few words, and finally sent the other party out of the door very politely.

"Jie'er, although this Huangxian Commander is slippery, his official reputation is still good, Dingyuan County is also well-organized under his governance, and the people have a good evaluation of him!" Li Zhu said good things for him after Huang Xianling left.

Li Jie nodded when he heard this, and then smiled at Li Zhu and said, "Father, the crown prince may only stay in Fengyang for three or five days, so I won't be able to stay for a few days when I come back this time, when are you going to take me to worship?" ”

Hearing Li Jie mention the worship again, Li Zhu also showed a look of embarrassment, but soon nodded and said, "Then tomorrow, I will ask people to prepare things for worship in the morning, and we will go to the ancestral tomb in the afternoon!" ”

"Good!" Li Jie also nodded immediately when he heard this, he saw that his father didn't want to take him to the ancestral tomb, obviously there should be a problem there, so he wanted to clarify the problem before leaving, and by the way, he also solved the problem.

The next day, Li Zhu prepared a lot of things for worship, and then left home by car with Li Jie, and when he left, Mrs. Li quietly pulled Li Zhu aside and told him a few words, Li Jie also saw it, but he didn't ask more.

The carriage went out of Dingyuan County, and then drove to the northwest of the county, the ancestral hall and ancestral tomb of the Li family are in a place called Wufeng Mountain in the northwest, and the famous overlord Farewell Concubine in history is said to have happened here.

There is a village at the foot of Wufeng Mountain, the name is Wufengzhuang, all the people in the Zhuangzi are surnamed Li, and they are all an ancestor, and Li Shanchang was originally born in the Li family. There is a cemetery on the mountainside behind Zhuangzi, which is the ancestral tomb of the Li family, and all the people from the Li family in Wufeng Mountain will be transported here for burial after their deaths.

Li Jie thought that Li Zhu would take him into Wufeng Village, see the old people in the clan first, and maybe even go to the ancestral hall in Zhuangzi to worship, but he didn't expect Li Zhu to take him directly to the cemetery on the mountain.

The scale of this cemetery is quite large, the entire mountainside is almost surrounded by the wall of the cemetery, and there are some buildings in the cemetery, it is estimated that it is a family temple or the residence of the tomb keeper, and the whole building is very new.

Walking to the mountainside, Li Jie was about to enter the cemetery, but he didn't expect Li Zhu to pull him to the west side of the cemetery with an embarrassed face at this time, and there was no gate to enter the cemetery at all, which made Li Jie also stunned, and when they walked along the outer wall of the cemetery for a while, they came to a cemetery, only to see that this cemetery should be newly built, and the main tomb in the middle stood Li Shanchang's tombstone.

"Father, why aren't they buried in the cemetery?" Li Jie immediately asked when he saw this, his face suddenly gloomy, he seemed to understand why Li Zhu was reluctant to let them come to worship.

"This ...... According to the rules of the clan, a person who dies by mistake is not allowed to enter the ancestral grave. I saw Li Zhu's complicated expression, both sad and a little embarrassed, especially in front of his son, which made Li Zhu a little embarrassed.

Looking at the expression on his father's face, Li Jie was also sour in his heart, he could understand his father's helplessness, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart, did not explode immediately, and then asked people to bring sacrifices to worship these relatives one by one.

However, after the worship was over, Li Jie got up and walked towards Wufengzhuang under the mountain, which surprised Li Zhuye, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and said: "Jie'er, this is the rule of the clan, you must not mess around!" ”

"Father, don't worry, I have my own measure!" Li Jie smiled slightly at Li Zhu, but his smile was a little cold.

Li Jie can not care about Li Shanchang and these people, even if Li Shanchang does not enter the ancestral grave after his death, he doesn't care, but he feels sorry for his father and feels guilty for this incident, and even he can imagine how much pain he had to bear to accept this matter with his father's character, which he can't forgive no matter what.

After Li Jie finished speaking, he broke free from Li Zhu, then turned over and got on his horse, and galloped down the mountain with a hundred guards.

Wufeng Zhuang is very large, Zhuangzi is full of Li clan people, relying on the fields in the clan, these people do not need to go to the field in person, there are many villages around are tenants of the Li family, in addition to the Zhuangzi has cultivated the clan science, so that the children of the clan can study for free, as long as you have the ability, the clan can provide you all the way to Beijing to catch the exam.

However, the arrival of Li Jie set off a huge wave for this peaceful mountain villa, when he led people to rush into Zhuangzi, it has caused a lot of panic, and some people even thought that the bandits who had disappeared for many years came again, which made the whole Zhuangzi also a mess, and every household wanted to find a place to hide.

Li Jie was originally deliberately looking for fault, only to see that after he led people to rush into Zhuangzi, he rushed directly to the ancestral hall in the middle of Zhuangzi, this ancestral hall is also the most conspicuous building in Zhuangzi, tall and majestic is very magnificent, it looks like a temple.

The door of the ancestral hall was open, Li Jie didn't get off the horse at all, and rushed directly into the ancestral hall, there were special people guarding the ancestral hall, and when he saw that someone rushed in on a horse, he was immediately startled, and then saw the murderous appearance of Li Jie and others, especially those forbidden soldiers were all carrying knives and guns, and the people in the ancestral hall who were even more frightened did not dare to speak out.

"Smash me!" Li Jie pointed to the main hall of the ancestral hall with a horsewhip in his hand and ordered, and the guards behind him immediately jumped off the horse when they heard the words, and then rushed into the ancestral hall like a wolf and a tiger.

Li Jie looked at all this expressionlessly, but the anger in his heart was still burning, when Li Shanchang was in power, the Li clan relied on Li Shanchang's shadow, I don't know how much they took advantage of, not to mention anything else, most of the clan land alone was donated by Li Shanchang, and the ancestral hall in front of him, as well as the cemetery on the mountain, were all funded by Li Shanchang.

It can be said that without Li Shanchang, the Li family is nothing at all, but Li Shanchang has done so much, but after his death, he was refused to enter the ancestral tomb by the clan, even if Li Jie didn't like Li Shanchang, he felt worthless for him.

Of course, what annoys Li Jie the most is that his father Li Zhu was wronged in this matter, with Li Zhu's temperament, he definitely does not want to fall out with the clansmen, and even Li Jie can imagine that Li Zhu must have begged the clansmen in order to bury his relatives in the ancestral grave, but no matter how many good things he said, Li Shanchang's family can still only be buried outside the ancestral grave.
