After talking to Li Ruobing about these things, Sun Yueling asked about the situation in Dongtang again, these days others are in the imperial city, and I don't know what happened to those brothers in Dongtang, whether under the leadership of Fang Yichen, cleared the power of the Citigroup in Dongcheng in one fell swoop.

Li Ruobing said: "In the days that you have been away, the hall master Fang led the brothers of Nantang and Dongtang to find evidence of Citigroup's smuggling of grain, and together with the servants of Shuntianfu, they went to the door to make trouble, and uprooted the Caomi warehouse, an important stronghold of Citigroup in Dongcheng, and Fang Hall Master even killed Ma Jinliang, the third-tier head of Citigroup who disobeyed orders, on the spot. After a pause, he said, "This time, Zhao Nanxing's two-pronged strategy has achieved miraculous results, and the Donglin Party has greatly exalted its prestige and shocked the government and the opposition. ”

Sun Yueling hesitated twice, but still asked: "Is it the best policy to act so openly and be the enemy of the nobles, heroes and other forces?" ”

Li Ruobing was silent for a while when he heard this, and sighed for a long time: "The party is the same as the other, and the Beijing division is unified, this is something that the elder and the teacher have never thought of before, as the so-called everything is too exhausted, fate is bound to end early, but Lord Zhao is full of confidence and fighting spirit, and he is the party leader of the Donglin Party members such as us, how can we go against his ideas?" ”

sighed again and said: "Since Elder Ge has not clearly expressed his opposition to this matter, we don't have to say anything, so we have to act according to the policy, and we don't say anything about this matter!" ”

Sun Yueling was also speechless, since Ye Xianggao did not make a clear statement, it means that in the Donglin Party, the people who advocate the same party and fight against differences may still account for the majority, no wonder in the future, many important members of the Qi, Chu and Zhejiang parties who were suppressed by Donglin have taken refuge in Wei Zhongxian, so it is not my race, and its domineering approach will only make the Apocalypse and the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty feel terrified, and lay the cause and effect of their own destruction.

Li Ruobing suddenly changed the topic and said: "Recently, Wei Zhongxian has persuaded the Son of Heaven, saying that in order to continue the royal bloodline, he will dedicate his niece and granddaughter Ren to the Son of Heaven to enrich the harem, and he will be named a concubine in the future." Then he frowned again and said, "After Ye Shoufu learned about this, he persuaded him to be a teacher and bring Liemei into the palace, and he will be promoted with the queen mother, so that the Son of Heaven will make Liemei the imperial concubine, so as to balance the Ren family." ”

Sun Yueling was shocked when he heard this, and said, "Will the little junior sister be offered to the palace as the imperial concubine?" This...... Can the master agree? ”

Li Ruobing's brows furrowed even tighter, and said, "It is of course great to be able to enter the palace and be accepted as the imperial concubine." However, what worries the teacher is that Liemei, a girl, is stubborn and not tactful enough, and she may not be able to fight the Hakka gang in the palace. As soon as she enters the palace, it is as deep as the sea, and if there is anything at that time, I am afraid that the teacher will not be able to help her. ”

Sun Yueling can understand Li Ruobing, she only has such a daughter, she is usually like a pearl, arrogant and accustomed, if she enters the treacherous harem, I am afraid that she will really suffer a big loss in the future, and it is even more difficult to take care of her, I can't help asking: "What does the master mean......"

Li Ruobing was silent for a while, and resolutely said: "This matter is very important, since Shoufu and the queen value it so much, how can I go against the grain, I have to send Liemei into the palace, everything in the future depends on her creation......" There seemed to be a sense of sadness and reluctance in his words, but his expression became more and more resolute.

"I don't want to marry into the palace!" Suddenly there was a coquettish cry outside the door, the voice was resentful and angry, it was the voice of Li Ruobing's baby daughter Li Liemei.

……

Sun Yueling chased after Li Liemei, who came out of the door, and sighed speechlessly in his heart.

In the inner hall just now, Li Liemei expressed strong indignation at his father's desire to marry her into the palace as a concubine of the Son of Heaven, and Li Ruobing persuaded her from the beginning to the back, saying that she must marry her daughter into the palace.

Li Liemei finally couldn't stand his father's domineering approach, and after throwing off the sentence "I want to marry you myself", she took the door away.

Sun Yueling had no choice but to comfort Li Ruobing, who was angry, and said that he would persuade his little junior sister to slowly make her change her mind.

chased out of the care hall, saw Li Liemei turning to the right, and ignored Sun Yueling screaming her name from behind.

Li Liemei turned into Xuanwumen Street and headed in the direction of Xuanwumen.

Sun Yueling chased after her all the way, and called her name loudly from time to time, which caused pedestrians on the street to stop and watch, and unknowingly thought it was two awkward couples, and they laughed and joked with him, and some told him to run faster; Some told him not to chase, don't indulge in the pampered temper of the girls.

With Sun Yueling's current kung fu, it is not too difficult to catch up with Li Liemei, but even if he catches up with her, he doesn't know how to persuade him, Li Ruobing's idea of forcing women to enter the palace with political overtones, to be honest, he doesn't approve of it from the bottom of his heart, but this is Li Ruobing's family matter, and it is not something he can control, so he is also very embarrassed, and he doesn't know how to persuade after catching up.

Seeing that he was about to reach the root of the Xuanwu Gate wall, he saw Li Liemei's figure turn to the left, and disappeared at that time.

Sun Yueling hurriedly jumped over a few times, separated the crowd and took a look, only to see that on the left was the gate of a academy, and the gold-lacquered signboard on it read the words "Shoushan Academy".

Wouldn't she, at this time, still have the heart to go to the academy to listen to lectures?

Sun Yueling was confused for a while, and also followed into the academy, there were many scholars and scholars in it, and some were students he knew in Guozijian, and when the people he knew saw him, they all bowed and worshipped. Sun Yueling didn't care about these red tapes at this time, so he asked them if they had seen Li Liemei, the girl who ran into the academy just now.

"I didn't see any girls!" The students of the academy spoke one after another, saying that they did not see such a person. Some people also analyzed that now it is time for Zou Yuanbiao, one of the three elders of Donglin, to give a lecture, and a girl's family does not seem to have a reason to come to the academy to listen to the lecture.

Sun Yueling listened to their explanation, and thought about what they said, Li Liemei has a daughter's family, there is no reason to come to the academy to listen to the lecture, especially since she is in a bad mood at the moment, full of resentment, and there is no reason to come to this place where the crowd is rubbing.

"Why don't you go to the Catholic Church next door?" He was reminded.

"Catholic church?" Sun Yueling was surprised, "What is it?" ”

"The Catholic Church is a church built by the Jesuits in Beijing, maybe Miss Li will go there." The man explained.

Sun Yueling felt a sudden feeling in his heart, it seemed that there was indeed this possibility, Li Liemei did not run into here, but went to the Jesuit Catholic Church next door, and hurriedly arched his hand to everyone and went straight to the next door.

Located next door to Shoushan Academy, it is a two-storey Chinese and Western style building, in the courtyard door stands a bronze, holding a cross curly-haired foreigner, the top of the second floor of the church stands a towering iron cross, the whole church is made of bluestone and wood, and the windows are inlaid with colorful colors, which is magnificent.

Sun Yueling ran into the courtyard door, pushed open the red door of the church, and sure enough, he saw Li Liemei kneeling reverently in front of the portrait of the Virgin Mary under the altar of the church, praying with her hands together, and not far behind her, there was an old gray-robed scribe standing behind him, with his hands behind his back, looking at Li Liemei praying with interest.

What kind of trouble is this, against my father's forced marriage, you don't have to run to the church to repent, right?

Sun Yueling was extremely surprised in his heart, and felt that everything in front of him was really unbelievable and unpredictable, but then he thought about it, Li Liemei would not be a believer in Catholicism, if this was the case, then it was really Amitabha.

In fact, his guess was not wrong at all, Li Limei is a devout Catholic.

Because her father Li Ruobing is a native of Donglin, and people in Donglin such as Ye Xianggao, Zou Yuanbiao and others have always been friends with the Jesuits, and Li Ruobing has often corresponded with the priests of the Jesuits, so since she was a child, Li Limei has an extraordinary knowledge and understanding of Catholicism.

She has lived under the influence and influence of the Donglin Gentlemen and Priests Taixi since she was a child, and she has accepted the Jesuit ideas on morality and life, so once his father Li Ruobing forced her to marry into the palace, Li Liemei, who was deeply influenced by the Jesuit "monogamy, equality between men and women", immediately said that she could not accept it, and quarreled with his father on the spot.

Under the pressure of his father, she was aggrieved and sad at this moment, so she couldn't help but run to this place where she usually prayed and relaxed, and whispered her grievances in front of the Virgin.

Sun Yueling couldn't help but stop Li Liemei, who was praying sincerely, and the old scribe standing next to him suddenly waved his hand lightly, signaling him not to disturb Li Liemei's prayer.

Sun Yueling didn't interrupt Li Liemei, but glanced at the old man in surprise, only to see that although the old man was dressed in a cloth and gray robe, he had a long beard, an awe-inspiring expression, a thin face, and his eyes were shining.

Sun Yueling had no choice but to watch this Li Liemei pray with the old man, and finally waited for her to finish, but Li Liemei turned around, glanced at them, and then said to the old man: "Uncle Xu, I really pray to the Lord, I must have heard it, I don't want to marry into the palace compound, you have to help me." ”

The old man helped her up and said with a smile: "Why, Sanshi plans to marry you into the palace, this is a great thing, you should be happy!" ”

Hearing him say this, Li Liemei's mood that had just calmed down became sad again, and said, "Uncle Xu, why do you even say that, are the Catholic teachings that you usually tell people that all are equal?" “

Uncle Xu grabbed her arm and said, "Liemei, don't worry, your father is doing this, I'm afraid he also has a hard time, let's go, let's go to the back hall and say." He took her by the hand and walked to the back hall.

Sun Yueling also followed, and Li Liemei suddenly turned her head and shouted at him: "You go back and tell my father, just say that I won't marry into the palace, let him die of this heart." ”

Sun Yueling was speechless, knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, Li Liemei is really very fierce, a typical fierce and brutal little sister in later generations.
