At this time, under the instruction of Mrs. Li, the people of the Hou Mansion had quickly moved out the boxes of return gifts. Li didn't regret that he still had time to pay attention to Zhao Qingcheng, "Chun Tao, you also take someone to move the box back to the carriage, don't make a mistake." She deliberately withheld no comment on the contents of the box.

"Yes." Spring peach responded.

Looking at the reaction of the master and servant, Mrs. Li on the side laughed secretly in her heart: I know that this girl can't see that she is ugly. As for the old lady, she will find an excuse later, but Zhao Qingcheng should really find an opportunity to explain well, so as not to let this prince have a reaction in his heart.

Chun Tao frowned, walked back and forth between the boxes and didn't call anyone to move, and looked at the mother-in-law from time to time, and looked at the mother-in-law in her heart.

"What are you doing there! Why don't you call someone to move out? Mrs. Li urged impatiently.

Chun Tao looked embarrassed, "Back to Mrs. Hui's words, the slave and maid don't dare!" The princess just warned the slave and maid not to move by mistake, and the slave and maid now saw that these boxes were not the princess's dowry, and they were afraid that they would move the wrong one again, so they didn't dare to call someone. ”

Li did not hesitate not to answer, but turned his gaze to the mother-in-law in charge.

Seeing this, the mother-in-law in charge hurriedly explained: "Princess Mingjian, this is your dowry. We found something wrong on the way and put it aside, and we didn't even enter the storeroom. ”

"Really?" Li didn't hesitate to comment, reached out and slowly took out a few pieces of paper, walked over in person, and compared them back and forth, "This is strange, then why does the list left for me by my mother not match it?" Her sharp gaze went straight to Mrs. Li.

When Mrs. Li saw that Li did not hesitate to take out those few pieces of paper, she "chuckled" in her heart and knew that something bad was wrong. On that day, when she changed the dowry, she took out the list of it, but as soon as she turned around, it was gone. She thought that Xu had lost somewhere, so she didn't take it to heart. Now it seems that she herself fell into one of the boxes without knowing it.

Mrs. Li only woke up at this moment, Li did not regret that the person who came was not good, and she came for the dowry today. However, if she wanted her to spit out what she had eaten, how could Mrs. Li let Li not hesitate to do so. "I kind of get it! Your return to the door today is fake, and it is true that you have the intention to embarrass the Hou Mansion. ”

"What my mother said confused me as a daughter." Li didn't hesitate to pretend to be stupid, frowning as if trying to understand Mrs. Li's words.

"You don't pretend to be stupid there! What is your heart for a newly married daughter who returns home with a dowry? Mrs. Li couldn't take care of Zhao Qingcheng and the old lady who were present at the moment.

Li Wei sighed lightly and said faintly: "Mother's words really hurt her daughter's heart!" She glanced at Mrs. Li, "My daughter's wedding day was a blessing in disguise, and the dementia she had been cured for many years was cured." In addition to the mixed feelings in my heart, I was more worried about my grandmother and mother, so much so that I went to visit my grandmother and mother with the prince despite the fact that I was recovering from a serious illness. Li didn't hesitate to pause, "As for carrying the dowry······ On that day, the prince was also happy to see that I had recovered from my illness, so he gave me a house. He also said that in the future, I would not worry about food and clothing in the palace, and the silver could be used at will, so I would keep this dowry for myself, and I had the idea of placing the dowry in the house. I happened to go back to the door today, so I thought about moving the dowry by the way, and I would run again in the future. Li Wei regretted to look at Li Weipian on the side, and continued: "I have been raised by a father since I was a child, and I have no mother to teach me!" The rules of etiquette are naturally not as good as Sister Li'er's, where do you understand these truths, of course, you can do things casually. If you inadvertently make the Hou Mansion and her mother lose face, I hope that my mother will be a lot of adults and don't worry about my daughter. ”

Li did not hesitate to push it away, as if all this was just a coincidence and an accident. Mrs. Li was half angry, but she couldn't find a reason to refute it, so she could only stare at Li for a while.

But Li didn't hesitate to give up, she changed her previous attitude. lowered his face and asked, "It's just that there is something that the princess doesn't understand, and I hope that Mrs. Li can solve my doubts." Li did not regret that not only his attitude had changed, but even his title for Mrs. Li had also changed. She picked up the posture of the princess, raised her hand and pointed to the boxes, and said, "Why does my dowry come and go in the Hou Mansion like this, not only the number of boxes has decreased, but the objects inside have also changed?" Li didn't hesitate to smile coldly, "I don't dare to speculate that someone has already been eyeing these dowries and instructed which ignorant subordinate of the Hou Mansion did it deliberately, or that all this was just a misunderstanding, and it was generally wrong from the previous time." I also hope that Mrs. Li will give this princess an explanation! ”

Mrs. Li suddenly felt that the Li Wei in front of her was so strange! It turned out that she was obviously a weak and bullying little girl, when did she become so tough and untouchable? In the face of the change in Li Weixi's entire aura, Mrs. Li was covered with a chill, and her heart was even more timid.

"Madam Li, don't you have anything to explain to the princess?" Zhao Qingcheng interjected, he really couldn't get used to the people in the Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Li really realized at this moment that she had no skills to return to heaven, and seeing that Li did not hesitate to ask Zhao Qingcheng again and again, she had to protect her face first and find an excuse. Otherwise, the news that her stepmother was greedy for money and replaced her stepdaughter's dowry spread out, and how would she meet people in the future.

Mrs. Li walked closer to the boxes, pretended to take a closer look, and said in surprise: "Yo, this is not the dowry I prepared for Li'er in the future!" How did you get moved out? Mrs. Li reluctantly smiled, "Xi'er, don't misunderstand your mother." Xu is a foolish subordinate who made a mistake. ”

"Humph! Got it wrong? How do I remember that the mother-in-law just now swore that the princess's dowry didn't even enter the door of the treasury, I don't know how can this be wrong?! ”

Hearing this, the mother-in-law in charge was so frightened that she knelt in front of Li Weixi with a "poof". She naturally knew the stakes in her heart, so she didn't have to wait for Mrs. Li to remind her, and hurriedly explained: "Lord, princess, forgive your sins!" Xu is the old slave's age, and his memory is also poor. The old slave originally planned to put the princess's dowry in the backyard, but later the lady came to see that it was inappropriate, and she was afraid that the dowry would be lost and she would not be able to explain it to the princess. So he asked the old slave to move the princess's dowry to the treasury first, and then make plans later. The old slave forgot all about it for a while, it was all the old slave's fault, and he asked the prince and princess to confess. ”

Seeing this scene, Li Wei, who had been standing beside Mrs. Li, saw that the dowry couldn't be kept, and couldn't help shouting: "Mother! Didn't you say that it was a pity for the fool to accompany the fool to the palace with those dowries, and he would keep them for me in the future! Li Weipian was so anxious that he couldn't hold back his mouth.

"Shut up!" Mrs. Li stopped, she was already disgraced, and at this time, she couldn't even save her lily when she was pitied by Li Wei.

Li Weipian didn't dare to say anything more, but he was worried about his future. Without that rich dowry, in the future, I will only be able to live in my in-law's family. Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth even more, glaring at Li Wei with hatred.

The old lady, who had been silent beside him, spoke at this time, "Since I inadvertently took the wrong dowry of the girl and the girl, and I didn't change it back, what are you doing here?" The old lady deliberately ignored the conversation between the previous people.

How dare the subordinates slack off on the words of the old lady, and under the supervision of Mama Lu'e, they soon exchanged the dowry for Li Weiwei.

The old lady ordered people to open them one by one, "Pity the girl, look carefully, this is the dowry left to you by your mother?" ”

Li didn't hesitate to take a closer look, "Exactly." ”

Li did not hesitate to face Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, and changed to a gentle and weak appearance, and persuaded "kindly": "Mother, now that my father is gone, the emperor still orders someone to send my father's money to the Hou Mansion every month." Although the days are not as good as before, they will not be sad, why should you be so wronged by your sister. Those dowries really want my sister to marry with her, not only will my sister not be able to raise her head in her in-law's house in the future, but even the Hou Mansion will lose face. ”

Li did not hesitate to pick out some good objects from his dowry, of course, these objects were not the best among all the dowries, but they were also valuable treasures. Li didn't hesitate to make up enough for a box, "These are a little bit of my heart as a sister." ”

Li did not regret the dowry left to her by his mother, and even Zhao Qing was shocked when he saw it, he didn't expect that those objects were priceless, and many paintings and calligraphy were also unique. It's no wonder that Mrs. Li's mother and daughter are greedy and want to get it by any means.

Just one box of objects can cover more than ten times the dowry of Li Weiwei, but Mrs. Li's mother and daughter are not willing to accept it. They hate the feeling of being given alms from above, especially if this person is still unsparing.

The old lady naturally saw their thoughts, and couldn't help but feel that Mrs. Li's mother and daughter were not grateful. The old lady frowned and said to Li Wei, "I haven't thanked your eldest sister yet!" ”

Li Weipian reluctantly gave Li Weixi a salute, which was regarded as a thank you.

Zhao Qingcheng had already seen enough of the farce in the Hou Mansion, and when he saw that the matter was over, he didn't want to stay here for a moment. "Old lady, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, this king and the princess will no longer make trouble, so don't bother it."

"Grandmother, my granddaughter will come to visit you again when she has time." Li did not hesitate to give up, this is sincere.

The old lady smiled and nodded with relief, and sent them out of the Hou Mansion. Mrs. Li's mother and daughter didn't know whether to follow or not, and stood stupidly in place without moving.

Seeing the soft sedan chair of Yan Wangfu go away, the old lady sighed, "It's a pity that this girl is like this now, maybe she will become the support of the Hou Mansion in the future." The old lady smiled with relief.

Seeing that there was no one around, Mama Lu'e asked puzzledly: "Since Miss is so optimistic about Little Miss, why don't you tell her about it?" ”

The old lady turned around and went back to the inner courtyard with the support of Mama Lu'e, "Wait, don't worry." She wanted to see it again. After this incident, the old lady didn't believe that Li was really stupid at the beginning.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～

On the other side, as soon as Mrs. Li returned to the room, she was so angry that she flipped the tea set on the table to the ground, and scolded fiercely: "It's not a pity! This dead girl dares to come to me to settle accounts! Today's matter, I will not rest on this side, you wait for me! ”

The mother-in-law in charge leaned over to pick up the tea set while comforting Mrs. Li, "Madame, don't be angry, it's not cost-effective to be angry with that little hoof." She put the tea set back in its place, and said, "Now that she is a princess, you have to deal with her as much as before, madam." ”

Mrs. Li smiled coldly, "I can't deal with her, I have someone who can deal with her!" You find someone to send a message to the queen mother in the palace, and you will say that Li Weixi's illness has been cured. ”

Back then, Li did not hesitate to fall ill after entering the palace. This disease has been for so many years, and the Queen Mother has been ordering the imperial doctor to come to Li Weixi every other time to ask for a pulse, and Mrs. Li doesn't believe that all this is just out of family affection. There must be something greasy in this, but she can't figure out the reason for it for a while.

The mother-in-law in charge asked puzzledly, "Madam, what does this matter have to do with this?" ”

"Don't ask too much about this, do as I tell you." Mrs. Li waved her hand impatiently.

"Yes." The mother-in-law in charge didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she stepped back.

～～～～～～～～～～～～

Li Weixi returned to the palace to know that Zhao Qingcheng was really in trouble, and he ordered someone to escort Li Weixi and his dowry back to Yan Wangfu, but he changed his route halfway and didn't know where he went.

Li didn't hesitate to think that since his affairs had been done, it was time to calm down and prepare for the lawsuit in Xunhuan Pavilion. After all, it is entrusted by people and loyal to people.

Li didn't hesitate to hastily eat some lunch, so he told Chun Tao to go out of the house to help her buy some things. also specially warned Chun Tao not to disturb her after she bought it, and plunged into Zhao Qingcheng's study.

As Zhao Qingcheng said that day, there are indeed a lot of books on the law on the shelves, including those from the time of Emperor Taizu, those restructured by Empress Taizu, and the law books added by the previous emperor.

Li did not hesitate to pick out all these books, fold them next to his desk, and study them carefully without distraction······
