Chapter 25
Chen Qitai was supposed to be sponsored by his father-in-law to go to the next level, but who would have thought that in the end, not only did he not wear the five-beam crown, but even he had to stay in a different place, and the four-beam crown on his original head had to be subtracted by one beam.
When his official position was demoted, Chen Qitai didn't react, but he regretted leaving his favorite place, and he had nowhere to spill his blood, and more importantly, he felt sorry for his daughter Chen Xi.
Chen Xi and Gale Feng have already made a marriage, the first five of the six ceremonies have also been completed, and the wedding date is set after the Mid-Autumn Festival in the coming year. But who knows, on the third day of August in the twenty-first year of Qinglong, just in the ten days before the wedding, in Chen Xi's infinite vision for a better life in the future, bad news came one after another. What Chen Xi was waiting for in the end was not his sweetheart wearing a red wedding dress to marry himself in a phoenix crown, but the news that the young man was seriously injured and disappeared, as well as the infamy he carried.
Gale is six years older than Liyun, and he is lawless to his only sister, and Liyun has such a good brother, and I don't know how many little girls of the same age have attracted the eyes, so although the brother and sister are different in age, they have a very good relationship.
The Lie family followed Emperor Yongfeng to establish the country by force, and after the establishment of the dynasty, he was named the general of the protector of the country, and the family was passed on by martial arts, and the family style was very strict. The men of the Lie family have to start practicing martial arts since they were three years old, which is earlier than the enlightenment of reading and literacy, and there are family rules, and the men of the Lie family can only take concubines if they have no children at forty, just because of this, Da Xuan does not know how many women want to enter the door of the Lie family.
It's a pity that the Lie family has grandchildren born from generation to generation, only to Lie Zheng, and Cheng Nishang gave birth to Lie Yun a year after marriage, and Cheng Nishang didn't come out again in the next ten years, although the old general and the old lady including Lie Zheng himself didn't care about this, but because the Lie family had few daughters, they regarded Lie Yun as the pearl of their palms.
But those girls who are waiting for the boudoir, although they can't express their righteousness to Lie Zheng openly because of the eldest princess of Anguo and Emperor Qinglong, they are full of strength in their hearts, secretly hoping that Cheng Nisheng's stomach will not move like this, and they may have a chance to enter the gate of Lie's house. It's a pity that in the end, the name of the hero is still in the ears, but the tomb of the hero has been erected early.
Although Lieyun has rarely gone out in the past three years, he can also listen to the little maids in the courtyard talk about anecdotes and rumors. Mo Ju and Cuizhu thought that they had already known about the world's insults to Gale Wind, so they never mentioned it in front of Lieyun, and never let the little maids in the courtyard mention it, but the rumors were fiercer than the tiger, and Lieyun didn't know! It's just that Lie Yun understands that the so-called rumors are just an excuse for the ruler to fool the common people, and the real people of insight will not believe it, let alone the top and bottom of the Lie family! Therefore, Lieyun has never argued anything for his cousin in front of people, and the clear one is self-purifying.
As she got closer and closer to Duobaomen, Lie Yun finally saw the appearance of the person who accused Chen Xi, and also saw how the sharp sword she turned into a sword pierced the person in front of her who did not fight back.
The woman is probably in the prime of her life, with a gorgeous face and luxurious clothing, and the uniform bright red dancome smeared from the slender jade fingers and nails that stretches out must be a pampered person. But at this time, the hideous look on her face and mean words made her seem to have completely changed into a person, from a boudoir to a market shrew.
Speaking of which, this woman and Cui Wanning can be regarded as cousins.
It turned out that this woman's name was Xiao Nianyuan, her great-grandfather was a hereditary auxiliary prince, and was later demoted to the Marquis of Yongqing because of his anger against Emperor Qinglong, his grandfather is the current Yongqing Bo Xiao Lin, and his father is Xiao Songqi, who is currently the commander of Shanxi Dusi, and his two aunts and grandmothers, one is the current Wanci Empress Dowager Xiao Jinxiu, and the other is Cheng Jinsi's mother Xiao Tassel.
Lie Yun is no stranger to this Xiao Nianyuan, and he can be said to be familiar, because Xiao Nianyuan, like Chen Xi, has deep roots in Lie Style. But the difference is that Chen Xi and Gale are justifiable, while Xiao Nianyuan knows that Gale has a marriage match and still stalks, which is annoying.
Chen Xi looks like Xiao's mother, but her personality follows her father, gentle and amiable, knowledgeable, and Lie Yun likes this future lobby sister-in-law very much. As for Xiao Nianyuan, she is a clown who jumps off the beam, and she doesn't even know that the Xiao family has been disgusted by Emperor Qinglong, but she was born in Bofu but she didn't even get the title of a countryman, and she still bounced around with her children's love every day, and Lieyun didn't take her seriously at all. Unexpectedly, after three years, she had a cousin who was the emperor and an aunt and grandmother who was the queen mother.
"Hmph, Chen Xi, you still have the face to go out, if it weren't for you, if it weren't for you, a disaster star, how could Brother Gale have an accident, how could he not see anyone alive or dead, and he would have to bear a lot of infamy! It's all your fault! Why isn't it you who is missing! ”
The woman's screams and angry scolding clearly came into Lieyun's ears, looking at the figure who had no reaction to the other party's scolding when he turned his back on him, but at this moment he couldn't control the trembling when he heard the word Gale Wind, Lieyun looked at Xiao Nianyuan's eyes, which were filled with a layer of cold color like a blade.
Lieyun snorted coldly and stepped forward.
The fat boss of Duobaomen was already anxious to turn around there, he knew who these two were, but it was precisely because he knew the identities of these two that he didn't know what to do, and the fat boss felt that there were several more folds on his face.
Suddenly, the fat boss rubbed his eyes, hey, God opened his eyes, I can't hold it anymore when I see the small, this is to send the heavenly girl to save me.
I saw the fat boss kneeling firmly on the black stone floor in front of Duobao Gate, making a loud plopping sound, but then the trilling words that came out of the fat boss's mouth sounded even more than the kneeling plop, making people have no doubt that he has used the strength of his whole body.
"Little one, meet the Lord of Feiyun! I don't know that the Lord of Feiyun County has arrived, and he has not been far away, the little one should be damned, and please forgive the Lord of Feiyun County! ”
The scene was quiet for a moment, and then all the people around me knelt on the ground and shouted for the county lord Chitose. Chen Xi, like everyone else, turned around and knelt down towards Lie Yun, his eyelids drooping, and he couldn't see the look on his face clearly. Only Xiao Nianyuan stopped scolding, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and she was about to act like everyone else, but as if she remembered something, she quietly straightened her waist and stood in place without moving.
Looking at Chen Xi's kneeling figure, Lieyun hid the look of pain and pity in his eyes and beckoned everyone to get up.
"All right, get up, and those who do not know are not guilty." Lie Yun lazily spoke to the fat boss, his eyes swept over Xiao Nianyuan, "It's just that I haven't been going out often in recent years, and I didn't know that the famous Duobaomen in Dingjing had changed to set up a stage for others." ”
"Lieyun, you ......" When Xiao Nianyuan heard this, Lieyun actually opened his mouth and compared himself to a singing play, he was furious, and he stepped forward to find Lieyun's theory.
As soon as he took a step, he was kneeling at his feet, and when he accused Chen Xi just now, he persuaded the maid who pretended to be an invisible person next to him without itching or pain, and pulled it with the strength to eat milk, "Miss, calm down, this is not Miss Chen, nor is it a girl from another family, no matter how you beat and scold, you won't fight back, this is the Feiyun County Lord, the Feiyun County Lord who is the same respect as the prince, Miss, according to the system, you should kneel down to see you." ”
The maid hurriedly shouted these words, and lowered her head, but the hand holding Xiao Nianyuan's clothes did not let go. Xiao Nianyuan also came to her senses, silently took a step back, and bowed to Lie Yun unwillingly.
"Get up, really, you and I can still be called cousins, don't talk about these false courtesies." After chatting with the fat boss for a few more words, Lie Yun seemed to see Xiao Nianyuan kneeling at him, and said hurriedly. was so angry that Xiao Nianyuan's eyes were red, if you really want me to be a cousin, why don't you just excuse me early in the morning, hum, a villain.
Lie Yun didn't care what Xiao Nianyuan was thinking, he beckoned the fat boss to let everyone disperse, passed by Chen Xi without squinting, and entered the Duobao Gate without saying a word.
