Chapter 10: My Aunt's Thoughts

Approaching the New Year, the Liguo Mansion sent a festival gift to the people who lived in Huai'an Houfu and Ji Chen, and the first uncle of the official family who came to give the gift spread that the father and son of Liguo Gong, that is, Ji Chen's grandfather and uncle, still did not see obvious improvement, and it was not suitable to meet guests, suggesting that Ji Tao did not need to rush back to the house to meet in the first month.

Ji Chen frowned slightly, thanked him, and said no more. But holding Ji Jun's hand unconsciously increased his strength, Ji Jun sighed in his heart, and the doubts in his heart became thicker and thicker.

In the book, after Ji Chen came to Huai'an Houfu, the Liguo Mansion seemed to have cut off contact with Ji Chen. During the days when she came into contact with Ji Xi after she crossed over, she also lived in the Liguo Mansion for a few days.

In the Guogong Mansion, because Ji Chen's maternal ancestor Li Guogong and her uncle Li Jia were seriously ill, she did not see them, but only met Ji Chen's two cousins, the eldest son Li Mi, the second son Li Tan and the cousin Li Fangling.

The two sons and the eldest lady were very affectionate to them, and when the holy decree reached the Liguo Mansion, their shocked expressions did not seem to be fake.

However, it is the wife of the prince, Wang, Ji Chen's aunt is very calm, but Ji Jun can also understand that as the daughter of a university scholar and the head of the house of the Liguo Mansion, there are some famous ladies in the capital, of course, there will be some confidence that Mount Tai will not change color before the collapse.

What's more, it's not a demotion, it's just a niece to move out, maybe it's still stealing fun!

Liguo Mansion, after listening to the news from the next person, the uncle Wang turned pale as usual, and gently blew the slightly hot tea, without saying a word.

Accompanying Fang Lu's mother was a little unfair and said: "This Huai'an Houfu is not like words, an aunt dares to calculate the young lady of our Liguo Mansion!" If Aunt Su's calculation succeeds, our Miss Cousin's reputation will be ruined! ”

Aunt Wang sneered and said indifferently: "Mother Lu, what kind of fool are you doing?" First, what Aunt Su is calculating is the daughter of the Ji family, what does it have to do with my Liguo Mansion? What's more, my niece is very powerful, she can bedridden her father-in-law and uncle, where are the ordinary demons and monsters her opponents! ”

Mother Lu cautiously smiled and said, "Madam, Miss Cousin is a child, how much ability can she have?" Moreover, I heard that my uncle has made a great contribution again, and my aunt and grandmother are also ......"

Lu's mother secretly thought that if Miss Biao really wanted to overcome the life of her relatives, she would have to overcome her own father and mother first. There's no reason to go to my grandfather and uncle!

Wang's face changed suddenly, and he instantly became angry, swallowed a mouthful of water, choked, and then coughed violently.

Lu's mother hurriedly took the teacup, patted her back again, and rubbed her chest again.

After a long while, Wang said hatefully: "Child? Can't you underestimate her? She and her mother are our nemesis...... cough, cough, cough, her life is annotated by Master Qingbin, who has approved the eight-character character of Concubine Xian, how can it be fake? Cheng Fang told me personally, the saint originally wanted to let Concubine Luo in the palace raise Ji Chen, but as soon as she had this idea, Concubine Luo was seriously ill, and Concubine Zhengui also died soon. ”

Lu's mother was speechless, the "Cheng Fang" in Wang's mouth was the name of Concubine Jiao Xian in the palace, Concubine Jiao Xian was close to the Wang family, and the Wang family was called so behind her back.

Regarding Concubine Jiao Xian's saying that the concubine raised Ji Chen, Mother Lu didn't think so, to be honest, she didn't believe it, and there was no way to verify it anyway. However, what is the way for her wife to believe?

"If it weren't for her mother, she would have to marry Ji Kui's martial artist, and now Li Jiajun and our Liguo Mansion would have nothing to do with it. However, the twelve thunder generals shouted at the saints, saying that they were deeply favored by the old prince and only accepted the leadership of the prince of Li and his bloodline in this life! The prince was so sick that he couldn't get out of bed, and the twelve thunder generals said that back then, the old lady also took them to life and death, and now, as long as the eldest lady is willing to go to the military camp in person, they are still the invincible Li family army! Now, Ji Kui has made another military exploit, and in the future, if I want to get rid of this group of martial artists, I can't get rid of it! Cheng Fang said that the saint didn't like our national government to hold military power, at the beginning, the saint intended to let Ji Chen's mother marry into the royal family, but she didn't! Now, it's against me again! Her mother and daughter just don't match me, they were born to restrain me! ”

Every time Wang said a word, his chest rose and fell even more, and the anger in his heart was even more than a point, and the sentence "come to me" was simply gritting his teeth!

Li Mi stood outside the door, and the whole person felt like falling into the abyss.

Wang drank slowly, and then said: "The entire court is pointing fingers at our Liguo Mansion, saying that the father-in-law supports the army and respects himself...... This next sentence is not it, it is not ......"

Wang didn't say the word "rebellion" in the end.

Mother Lu couldn't hold back and said: "Madam, no wonder those thunder generals, not long after the grandfather of the country was sick, the Beiliao tribe invaded on a large scale, and the imperial court sent Lu Shangshu of the military department to command the army, as a result, Lu Shangshu was stubborn and self-serving, did not listen to the dissuasion of the thunder general, and insisted on going deep into the army, and as a result, he fell into the trick of Beiliao and died tens of thousands of soldiers......"

"What does it matter to me whether those people live or die!" Wang was dismissive, not noticing that Lu's mother's face had become extremely ugly.

Li Mi's heart tightened, he remembered that Lu's mother had two distant nephews who died in this battle, and the two of them had already achieved a thousand households, and the other was a hundred households, and they had all come to the mansion. The 100 households have just been married, and they plan to get married next year. And that Qianhu hasn't had time to see his newborn son!

The battle must have been extremely tragic, and he remembered that eight of the twelve thunder generals had come to the mansion and knelt down to beg his grandfather to pick up his spear and get back on his horse! The oldest of them is similar to his grandfather, he was the one who followed his grandfather, and the youngest is close to his father.

However, without exception, they were all dressed in white helmets, white armor, and white scarves wrapped around their heads! Whole Body Vegetarian! The eldest general, with gray hair, kowtowed and bled blood, and cried like a child!

It is said that after the Beiliao army entered the city, it burned and looted, and those cities became hell on earth!

Many of the people who survived abandoned their homes where they had lived for decades and fled with their families, and in those days, there were many more displaced people in the capital.

I remember that my grandfather said that without the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers, where would they come from! Now, how can you feel at ease when you leave these thousands of soldiers and enjoy the honor alone?

"I am the daughter of a dignified scholar, married into the Liguo Mansion, gave birth to children, worked hard to keep a family, I want a peaceful family, I don't want to worry all day long, I don't want to face those bloody killings, is this wrong? Mother Lu, you said that I was not good to Ji Chen and didn't support her, but when his father and mother went to the front line, why didn't they think about how difficult it was for me to do! It was their surname Ji that made Concubine Xian almost unable to gain a foothold in the palace, and it was they who made my father and brother degraded......"

At the beginning, her father, one of the elders of the cabinet, Wang Daxue, promised the Holy Lord that the Liguo Guild would hand over the Li Jiajun in its entirety and would never interfere in military affairs again. However, now, the prince of Liguo and the prince are no longer leading the troops, but they have changed their daughters and sons-in-law, doesn't this mean that they will change the soup and not the medicine?

How could the saint give up, so he excused her father to be old and let him go. And her brother, Wang Peng, the waiter of the Criminal Department, was released!

And Concubine Jiao Xian told her that in order not to anger the saint, they should have less contact.

The circle of noblewomen in the capital is to watch the wind and rudder, and in the past, most of the Wang family were stars holding the moon everywhere. Nowadays, everyone's attitude is starting to become polite and detached!

"Mother Lu, I'm not reconciled...... At the beginning, Cheng Fang said that the crown prince died of illness, and the saint intended to set up thirteen princes, but many ministers did not approve. But so what, what do they dare to beak in the last word? As long as our Liguo Mansion supports the Thirteen Princes, when the time comes, there will be the same glory and wealth from the dragon! Why bother to be born and die! In vain provoke the suspicion of the saints! …… Fortunately, the prince is sick, so there is no need to entangle with those martial artists...... But another one came out...... Master Qingbin has long said that Ji Chen is to restrain me, and she will restrain me from living in peace for the rest of my life. ”

Mother Lu sighed and called softly: "Madam, now, the prince and the two sons are staying in the mansion, and your mind is also full, so don't be angry." ”

Li Mi's eyes were lowered, his face was pale, and his hands trembled slightly.

At the beginning, he wanted to replace his grandfather and father to go to the military camp to suppress the battle, but his mother forced him to die. He thought his mother was worried about his grandfather's father's serious illness...... Therefore, the eldest son of the government should stay in the mansion to preside over the overall situation.

Li Mi wanted to go in and say something to her mother, but the hand that wanted to knock on the door slowly lowered,

Without military power and meritorious service, why did you become a hero of "Conglong"? Just because you are good friends with the virtuous concubine?

Mother, don't you want to think about it, what does Concubine Xian Niangniang rely on to think that the Holy Lord will favor the Thirteen Princes? Do you think that the prince of a country is such a simple matter of one sentence? It is the exchange of courtesies between you and the princess of the county and the princess of the country, and you still need to think about it.

What is the purpose of Concubine Xian Niangniang telling you this?

Maternal ancestor Zhishi, uncle is released, does it have a lot to do with the Liguo Mansion?

At that time, there was some secret ridicule in the court for the position of the prince, and at this time, the three princes were assassinated, and Dali Temple caught a few assassins and imprisoned them in the prison of the Criminal Department, but a day later, the assassins were all killed in the prison!

And on that day, my uncle went to prison!

Indeed, everyone knew that Uncle did not dare or did not need to kill those assassins, but there must have been a dereliction of duty!

As the emperor, you must always give an explanation to the hundred officials! And as a father, he also has to give an explanation to the three princes, not to mention, this third prince is the favorite son of the saint!

Alas, his mother has always been smooth sailing, saying that it sounds good, but it is simple-minded, and if it is not good, it is stupid and easy to deceive. However, he is still stubborn and does not listen to persuasion.

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Li Mi's mouth, and he thought for a moment, then turned around and slowly left.
