Chapter XXIV: Threats and Inducements
No matter how well others live, it is someone else's life, not their own, although some of the eldest niece's actions are the same as hers, but Li can feel that Ling Xiao and her are not people on the same road.
She knows that the eldest niece is a very smart person who sees through the world, and this kind of person is often very uncomfortable in life, because smart people understand too much, but they find that they are powerless to change anything many times, even if it is the emperor.
This is the reality that Li discovered after being familiar with history, for example, after the appearance of Her Majesty the only empress, she did not let other women have more opportunities to participate in politics, and the capable generals under her were basically men, and most of them were left by Li Tang.
During the reign of the empress, the only female official with some name was Shangguan Wan'er, and there were no other waves. In addition, the experience of the empress greatly stimulated the famous Princess Taiping, and then Empress Wei and Princess An Le were also affected by the film, both wanted to be the empress but did not have that opportunity at all.
After reading the history books, the Li family pondered for a long time, why didn't there be another empress? The empress's daughter, Princess Taiping, has held a lot of power for a long time, and it is said that she may succeed. But her opponent is too strong, it is the majestic prince Li Longji, although Princess Taiping is the emperor's sister, but the prince is the emperor's son, the emperor values his son more, Taiping wants to rebel, and the result is given death.
After reading the history books, the Li family can be sure that the very smart and capable Wu family will not be able to do what he wants after becoming the emperor, there are too many possibilities, and she was forced to abdicate after more than ten years in power, and she should be a little depressed before she died.
The Li family also knew that the five ministers who took the lead in forcing the empress to abdicate were also very smart people, and it can be said that it was because of them that the matter of recovering Li Tang was born, but they also did not end well.
They are afraid that they also have some understanding of their future before they act, and loyal ministers often end tragically, but they will still do it without hesitation.
The eldest niece gave her a very unique feeling, and Li felt that she was very close to a very smart person for the first time, as if she saw those influential people in the history books.
And she didn't want to live with her eldest niece, because she found that she couldn't control her eldest niece at all, and her life could overturn at any time because of her.
But she didn't dare to offend her eldest niece, because she might rise to prominence one day, and who knows what sensational things she could do? Everything is unknown.
If she can, maybe her daughter can take a ride, after all, the eldest niece has never left her daughter, and her heart should still be soft.
So as a cousin, if Baozhu maintains a certain good relationship with her eldest niece, she will definitely be able to reap certain benefits.
Li Shi frowned slightly when she thought of this, because just now she could see that Baozhu, the child, was more disgusted with the eldest niece.
I'm afraid that the eldest niece should have a number in her heart, and this discovery makes Li feel a little bad, this child!
After thinking about it for a while, Li quickly gave up the idea of educating his daughter, and sometimes things must be reversed.
Since she could see that Baozhu was very jealous of her cousin, she still didn't force her.
Li is not stupid, and he knows that the more he wants his daughter to get close to the eldest lady, the more he can't.
Tao Baozhu's heart is only afraid that he is very jealous of the eldest lady.
Forget it, the Li family, who thought clearly, didn't stimulate his children anymore.
Just let Baozhu grow up peacefully, and don't force her to succeed.
Ay! It's a pity, Li feels that this eldest niece will definitely be very powerful in the future.
So since you can't maintain a particularly good relationship with her, don't anger the eldest lady.
Ay! Li felt that she was unlucky, and if she had known that this would happen, she would have found another way.
At the very least, I will be more cautious in what I do, and I must not let my eldest niece grasp her handle.
Of course, it was too late to say such things, and the eldest niece was only afraid to see through her nature, so Li sat expressionlessly.
Her husband didn't think of his wife's idea at all, and he was angry because his niece's statement seemed too vicious to him.
Ling Xiao noticed that Li Shi was gradually recovering, and Li Shi was secretly relieved to find that Ling Xiao did not mention herself in the confession he gave.
After Ling Xiao found out, he verified one thing: the second aunt was wiser than Tao Er, and he also found that Li's management expression was in place and his psychological quality was extremely strong.
The Li family should know that Ling Xiao saw through her true face, but her demeanor did not have much effect, which showed that the Li family had a strong ability to disguise, and Tao Baozhu did not learn this at all.
Maybe it's because of her mother who is too protective of her, Tao Baozhu has no chance to learn how to read words and feelings, and some of them are arrogant and squeamish, which also shows that she lives quite happily.
Tao Erlang never thought that the two women around him were deserting, ignoring his hideous appearance, and he was still angry and angry, thinking about what he should do now?
Because the two of them did not have major changes in facial expressions, he didn't notice that the two people were wandering at all, and Li was used to hiding his thoughts.
Ling Xiao has the ability to use two minds, pretending not to see, and if you want to live in a world that emphasizes fame, you have to learn to manage your expressions.
In other words, to test his acting skills, Ling Xiao decided to strictly learn to manage his expressions from today onwards, and not to leave a mess for the original owner.
You must know that today's performance is quite out of line, and after that, you should not be too aggressive, especially when dealing with the relatives of the original owner.
can't let the uncle and aunt of the original owner feel that they have no way out, and just come to the cauldron and let everyone not live.
As for the two younger brothers of the original owner, they also had corresponding plans for their future development, but fortunately, the imperial court began the imperial examination.
Then the two children should have their own way, and Ling Xiao didn't have to ask them to go to officialdom.
But I still hope that they can get fame, and you must know that they are the people after they get fame.
The people and the common people are different, if the Tao family does not have the power of officialdom.
One bad thing is that the slaves in the wealthy family can come to persecute them.
This is what Ling Xiao knew from his previous experience.
That's why she wanted to make the original owner's younger brother work hard.
Not for other interests, but for the two of them.
Of course, this is the first time she has to take on the responsibility of educating children.
In the previous world, the original owners after she crossed over were relatively large.
Even the original owner of the second world is younger, and he is older than the younger brother of the original owner of this world.
The original owner of the second world has a lot of his own cognition, and Ling Xiao's arrival is only a part of it.
Well! So Ling Xiao decided to educate the two boys well this time, for the sake of the original owner and for herself.
And Tao Erlang didn't get any response at all when he saw his anger, and finally gradually that anger slowly disappeared.
For a moment he had the feeling that he was dreaming, and after blinking his eyes, he was sure that all this was not a dream, but something that was happening.
He looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Big lady, what do you want to do?" I don't think you're going to blow out all this weird stuff, right? ”
Tao Er has naturally grown a little over the years, and he definitely doesn't think that Ling Xiao intends to publicize these things, at some point they are grasshoppers on a rope.
is the so-called one glory and one loss, Tao Er still knows this, so he quickly understands that this eldest niece should want to negotiate with him, so he will throw out these news that looks very hurtful.
Ling Xiao thought that this person was too stupid before, and he didn't expect a big change in the blink of an eye, it turned out that Tao Erlang also had a brain, Ling Xiao said lightly: "Actually, the main thing is to split up, and everyone lives separately." ”
Hearing this, Tao Er was stunned for a moment, because he never thought that Ling Xiao made this request, as if he didn't want to squeeze out something, just such a request?
And the Li family understands a little that the eldest niece just doesn't want to live a life under the fence, which makes all their previous plans for the husband and wife come to naught.
After Tao Er heard this, his heart didn't like Ling Xiao very much, because her lethality was stronger than he imagined, which made him take a closer look at her.
I feel that this child doesn't reassure him very much, but he finds that he has a handle and has to be caught, and he can't object, which makes people feel annoyed.
After thinking for a while, he agreed, "Since you want to split up, it's up to you, but we have some things to talk about." ”
He is now bent on breaking away from this eldest niece who doesn't know how to lift, and he feels that this one is too dishonest, and he is afraid that he will cause trouble.
"I don't know what the second uncle wants to talk about, the ugly words are in front, and the deed of sale of Mama Fang's mother and daughter will be handed over to me."
As soon as Li heard this, he glanced at his husband, and when he saw Tao Er thinking about it, he nodded, and then said, "Okay!" ”
After knowing that the eldest niece is not a good stubble, the Li family does not plan to work against the eldest niece.
Anyway, she felt that she had given her eldest niece Mama Fang's mother and daughter a deed of sale.
The eldest niece won't let the two of them say it either.
She was a little annoyed and sent Mama Fang over.
Now she is even more afraid that her eldest niece will turn over old accounts for her.
And Ling Xiao understood their concerns after taking a look at their husband and wife.
In the end, it was decided to give the two of them a reassuring pill and not let them worry.
He said, "There are some things I don't want to expose, because it's not just your business." ”
Hearing this, Li and Tao Er glanced at each other, and returned to their original places with their hearts.
Ling Xiao decided to remind the two of them that Mama Fang was bribed by someone and deliberately engaged in the Tao family.
"It's more about the Tao family, you have to be careful, someone wants to engage the Tao family, who will be the next target?"
After Tao Er heard this, his eyes widened and his mouth widened, because he didn't think about this question at all.
He has been thinking about how to seal his niece's mouth all this time? He even had a terrible thought: to destroy his brother's branch.
This idea was just dissipated by Ling Xiao's words, what? Someone is calculating the potter? How did he not know? He looked ignorant.
Ling Xiao naturally saw Tao Erlang's ideological dynamics, in this society, Tao Erlang, who was his uncle, was indeed the one who might destroy the original owner.
Then just find a reasonable reason, no one comes out to ask. After all, the original owner's uncle's family was not here at all, and it would be three autumns late when they came back.
Ling Xiao revealed part of the situation to let Tao Er sober up, and Ling Xiao was very suspicious of how this idiot could become an official? I was sold for fear that I would pay for the number of people.
In addition, she felt Tao Er's murderous intention, and felt that she was afraid that Tao Er brought the habit of treating human life as a mustard in the officialdom, thinking that she could cover the sky with one hand? Scold! Ling Xiao was not afraid of his reaction at all.
And Li Shi was very dazed at the moment, because she only looked at the part of Mama Fang's investigation of the old lady, and the confession of poisoning was torn off by Tao Er, so she didn't see it, so naturally she didn't know what the big problem was.
Ling Xiao explained to the Li family and said: "After Mama Fang was bought, she brought arsenic to Tao's house, and she took advantage of her cousin's filial piety to put arsenic into the soup that her cousin gave to her grandparents. ”
Hearing this, the Li family almost tore Mama Fang apart, if this operation broke out, it would let her two children die at all, and their reputation was only afraid of stink.
I knew that I shouldn't have sent my child over, and what property was robbed? not only did his life fail, but he also gave the child's innocent reputation.
"Mama Fang, she definitely can't stay." Li said that she really wanted to kill Mama Fang's mother and daughter, these two sluts who ate inside and out.
Thinking of what Mama Fang and the others did: to harm her own child, her eyes were a little red, and her teeth were rattling.
Ling Xiao said: "Mama Fang can't die for the time being, because we don't know Mama Dou, without her, how can we know who is calculating the Tao family?" ”
"Auntie, we are on guard, but if someone is secretly playing ghosts, won't they fall into passivity." Ling Xiao said.
These few words made Tao Erlang and his wife understand, and both of them forgot that there was a mastermind behind the scenes.
The thought of someone watching them from behind made Tao Er and his wife feel cold.
Of course, there is another reason why Ling Xiao kept Mama Fang, and that is to be a personal witness.
Otherwise, I'm afraid that Tao Erlang, a fool, will do the stupid thing of killing Dafang.
Tao Er found that the problem was not to be solved, but to kill people.
Ignoring blood relations, this person's heart is too ruthless.
So it's better to keep some handles.
After hearing this, Li quietly glanced at his eldest niece.
She naturally knew that she didn't understand Ling Xiao's thoughts.
But I can feel what the eldest niece should have planned.
She thought about it for a while and decided to give up recourse, after all, Mama Fang was her person.
If something happens, she decides that she can't run away, and a hat that murders her elders makes her never turn over.
Then she chose to keep her mouth shut, so as not to anger this smart and capable niece and provoke the other party's reckoning.
And Tao Erlang thought about it for a while, if Mama Fang's behind-the-scenes instructions still didn't give up, then it was indeed possible to make another move.
And he had never thought about himself before, and there were people behind him who wanted to calculate him. So today's niece's words made him understand, there are still people who want to calculate him, what to do?
Ling Xiao waited for them to think for a while and said, "How is it?" Our two rooms will be separated, and we will be normal relatives with each other in the future, and we don't need to worry about uncles and aunts. ”
Tao Erlang thought about it for a while, but he didn't know what to do? Look at some of the different Li family before, I want to see what she thinks.
In his heart, Li is more qualified to be a wife, and he is extremely generous in the relationship between men and women, and he believes in his wife very much.
Although Mama Fang was his wife's slave, he knew that his wife had no intention of killing her parents.
You must know that once your parents die, it is a matter of worry, and your wife is not stupid enough to that extent.
