Li Xiuyao ordered someone to quickly bring her a basin of hot water and change her clothes.
The reason why they don't bathe is because there is also a time limit for bathing, and women like them generally bathe every three days. If Li Xiuyao asked to take a bath now, it would definitely cause people to be suspicious. Therefore, Li Xiuyao could only wipe her body with water.
After changing into clean clothes, Li Xiuyao felt a little more comfortable in her heart.
On her face, the place where she had just been beaten was still a little numb, and Li Xiuyao suddenly thought, did she leave traces of slapping on her face?
Damn, why didn't Liuyun remind her when she saw it just now?
Li Xiuyao sat in front of the dresser and took a good look at the bronze mirror, but found that her face seemed to be ...... Didn't leave any traces?
How is this possible?
Li Xiuyao greeted Liuyun and asked, "Liuyun, come over and take a look, are there any red marks on my face?"
"Yes, miss. Liuyun stepped forward and took a closer look, then replied, "Miss, you don't have anything on your face. ”
"I really didn't leave a palm print?" Li Xiuyao was resentful in her heart, "I didn't expect these women who were born to be keen on house fighting to have such a ability, it seems that my aunt is determined that I don't dare to sue?"
In fact, Zhou Xue's status as an aunt in the mansion is very embarrassing, although she is Li Xiuyao's biological mother, she can't hear her daughter call her mother, and Li Xiuyao is a serious master in Li's mansion, and Zhou Xue is a bit similar to a half-servant and half-master because of her aunt's relationship, if she is not a favored woman in Li Yanhou's house, then she will be even more abused.
But even so, Zhou Xue is not qualified to admonish and punish Li Xiuyao, if Li Xiuyao really doesn't care about going to sue, the result may really be unassumable.
But will Li Xiuyao go to sue?
Not to mention anything else, Li Xiuyao is Zhou Xue's own daughter, they are a community of interests, just like Li Xiuyao said before, they are grasshoppers on a rope, if Li Xiuyao goes to sue and says that Zhou Xue beat her, of course, Zhou Xue can't please her, but how much better will she be.
Not to mention, no matter what, Zhou Xue is Li Xiuyao's biological mother, if Li Xiuyao goes to sue, will others think that Li Xiuyao is unfilial?
Therefore, even if Li Xiuyao is angry again, she will not sue Aunt Xue, because this is completely harmful and useless except for dissipating her anger for a while.
After Li Xiuyao figured it out, she could only endure this breath, and only wait for the next day to think of other ways to get out of today's breath.
But Li Xiuyao was still panicked in her heart, so she asked Liuyun to bring scissors and a lot of handkerchiefs.
Li Xiuyao cut several handkerchiefs, while imagining that this handkerchief was Zhou Xue.
Liuyun stood aside tremblingly, holding his breath, not daring to make a sound.
In the evening, Li Xiuyao vomited and diarrhea during dinner, and Li Xiuyao was shocked, angry and annoyed today, so she actually started a high fever.
Lin Luo didn't expect Li Xiuyao to be so angry, and she even had a fever. After all, in the Book of Lin Luo, Li Xiuyao is very tolerant. Huang Yuewei and Li Xiuqi don't know how many times they have mocked Li Xiuyao openly and secretly, but Li Xiuyao can greet each other with a smile, of course, Li Xiuyao later reported them to Huang Yuewei and Li Xiuqi one by one.
Li Xiuqi also fell in love with the Hou Shizi of Wu'an in her previous life, as the daughter of a second-class official, if she married the hot Wu'an Hou Shizi in the capital, it would be considered a high marriage, but unfortunately, the Hou Shizi of Wu'an didn't look down on Li Xiuqi, but she fell in love with Li Xiuqi's sister-in-law, Li Xiuyao. Thinking about it, Li Xiuqi must have been very angry at that time.
Not to mention, when Li Xiuqi competed with Li Xiuyao, she always fell into a disadvantage, and there were a lot of ugliness, so in the end, Li Xiuqi didn't marry a good family at all, and Li Xiuyao's final destination was far away.
In her previous life, Li Xiuyao was a winner, but Lin Luo didn't know if Li Xiuyao had the last laugh. After all, Li Xiuyao has no mother's family, so she can only rely on her husband's favor to gain a firm foothold, which is really too hanging.
Lin Luo added emetics and a little croton to the tea, and covered it up with various sour and bitter tastes, Li Xiuyao couldn't notice anything at all, she would only think that she drank cold water and her stomach was stimulated, so she vomited and diarrhea.
You must know that although Li Xiuyao is a concubine, she is not as good as Li Xiuqi's treatment, but she was raised by the old woman Zhou Lian when she was young, and her food and drink are no more delicate, for ordinary people, drinking a glass of cold water may not be anything at all, but for a pampered body like Li Xiuyao, it is not necessarily.
And the reason why Lin Luo wanted to add some ingredients to the tea that Li Xiuyao drank was to let Li Xiuyao participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet two days later.
In her previous life, Li Xiuyao made two friends at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and these two friends helped Li Xiuyao a lot.
One of them is the lord of Yunluo, the lord of Yunluo is the daughter of the eldest princess, the eldest princess is the sister of the emperor today, very respected by the emperor, when the lord of Yunluo was born, he was named the lord of the county by the emperor, she has a noble status, but she has a cool personality, so that she is uneven, in Beijing, it can be said that no one dares to provoke.
This Hundred Flowers Banquet was held by the eldest princess for the Lord of Yunluo.
In her previous life, she almost had a pickled incident at this Hundred Flowers Banquet, but it was Li Xiuyao who was smart enough to avoid this incident in advance, so Li Xiuyao also won the favor and friendship of the county lord of Yunluo.
Since then, Li Xiuyao, as the boudoir friend of the county lord of Yunluo, naturally no one dares to offend her without a long eye, even if someone is not used to Li Xiuyao, Li Xiuyao will not be able to suffer at all by borrowing the name of the county lord of Yunluo, and will even make those people speechless.
In Li Xiuyao's ceremony, the appearance of the county lord of Yunluo also made Li Xiuyao very face-saving, you must know that Li Xiuqi's ceremony was not as beautiful as Li Xiuyao's.
And Li Xiuyao's other friend is Jiang Shuting, who was born in poverty, Jiang Shuting's brother Jiang Han is a lifter, and the Jiang family came to Beijing this time for Jiang Han's imperial examination. The Jiang family is a relative of Hubu Shangshu, and it is precisely because of this relationship that Jiang Shuting can come to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet held by the eldest princess.
Although Jiang Shuting was born in poverty, she is a real talented woman, she knows everything about poetry and songs, and she is smart and intelligent, Jiang Shuting and Li Xiuyao became friends at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and Jiang Shuting also gave Li Xiuyao advice and provided a lot of help.
These two people can be said to be Li Xiuyao's right-hand men, in order to block Li Xiuyao's back road in advance, Lin Luo will never let Li Xiuyao go to participate in any flower banquet.
It is precisely because of this that Lin Luo will drug Li Xiuyao, so that Li Xiuyao vomits and can't go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
You must know that this is not modern, taking a pill, your body can get better immediately, plus Li Xiuyao is pampered, this vomit and vent, Li Xiuyao will take at least three or four days to get better, then it will just happen to go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet.
It's just that Lin Luo didn't expect that Li Xiuyao would even start a burn. In ancient times, this was no small illness.
However, Li Xiuyao had a big life, and the fever subsided after taking the medicine, but Li Xiuyao would never be able to go to this hundred flowers banquet.
And this is exactly what Huang Yuewei and Li Xiuqi want, they can't wait for Li Xiuyao to go, but the old lady opened her mouth before, and Huang Yuewei can only comply.
Li Xiuyao missed this Hundred Flowers Banquet, and she didn't know how much chagrin she felt in her heart, although she couldn't look down on this ancient woman jumping up and down in order to marry a good husband, but Li Xiuyao could only seize every opportunity for her future marriage not to be caught by Huang Yuewei.
And this Hundred Flowers Banquet is a good opportunity, the people who participate in this Hundred Flowers Banquet are some noble ladies and young ladies in the boudoir, showing their faces at this Hundred Flowers Banquet is good for Li Xiuyao, maybe there will be her future mother-in-law and sister-in-law at this Hundred Flowers Banquet.
During Lin Luo's recuperation, he continued to subdue his subordinates, and at the same time, he found a strange news that Zhou Xue's husband and cousin had not set foot in the house for a long time.
Although Lin Luo heard that the reason why Li Yan was like this was because he had an errand and had no time to separate/body, Lin Luo still felt strange, you must know that in his previous life, Li Yan may not have been busy, but he had never entered the back house for such a long time.
And at this time in his previous life, Li Yan was very leisurely, and he didn't have any important errands at all.
Lin Luo couldn't help but think, would this Li Yan be the same as him?
Li Yannai is the pillar of the Li Mansion and Zhou Xue's husband, not from the perspective of the house fight, their interests and honor and disgrace are the same.
In his previous life, the Li Mansion was raided, and if Li Yan was his companion, he would definitely make measures in secret to avoid the tragedy of the Li Mansion in his previous life.
If this is the case, then this is really good news for Lin Luo. After all, Lin Luo is only a woman in the back house now, and she can't interfere in the battle in the court at all, and Li Yan's level is at least silver, and the tasks that can be promoted to silver are not to be underestimated, if the other party can handle the court battle alone, then Lin Luo can just save a little worry.
In the previous life, the Li Mansion was raided because it involved the struggle for the throne of the prince, and the Li Mansion helped the prince who represented the orthodoxy, while the Hou Shizi of Wu'an chose the three princes.
The reason why Li Fu took refuge in the prince was not just for the sake of the dragon's work, in fact, Li Yan's mentor was the prince's concubine, that is to say, Li Yan and the prince were brothers, so Li Fu could only choose to help the prince.
It's just that the prince is not so easy to be, when the Li Mansion was raided in his previous life, although the prince has not been abolished, he has also been rejected by the emperor, and soon after, the emperor abolished the prince and paid attention to the three princes.
When Zhou Xue died of illness in his previous life, the three princes were already expected to return to the court, and they were only waiting for the day they ascended the throne.
Li Yan sat in the study with his eyes closed, Lin Luo guessed correctly, this Li Yan's core has indeed changed people. This person was none other than Murong who Lin Luo had met twice in his previous mission.
Moreover, Lin Luo's thoughts and thoughts were not wrong, Murong was indeed thinking about how to avoid this catastrophe in the Li Mansion.
