Chapter 99: Broken Three
Li Ji's words, the old couple at the top were red-faced, and the world also talked about filial piety, but the couple did too much to their youngest son, and they couldn't find a reason to fight back. But the third Li Meng is still there to force his reasoning.
"God-damned Li Ji, since you are a son of man, born and raised by your parents, you should do your best and abide by filial piety, but how can you trespass into the inner house, commit murder in front of your parents, and threaten to take revenge?
"First of all, you need to make it clear that it is Mama Wang and Mama Sun in the palace who raised me, they died early in the palace, and they regret that they can't be supported for life, but what does it have to do with the Li Mansion?" Li Ji glanced at him coldly, "As for arriving at the Li Mansion, I, Li Ji, suffered hardships, suffered and endured humiliation, but I didn't enjoy it in vain as a young master, where did it come from? ”
"The grace of birth and nurturing, you say it's irrelevant, it's irrelevant?" a servant girl who helped the old lady said to help.
Li Ji saw that it was an acquaintance, "Zizhu? Lao Tzu can also allow you, a slut, to come up and interject when he speaks? You are almost thirty years old this year, right? It is time to change your temperament and think about it for yourself, if you protect your third young master so much, he will not marry you... ”
"Second young master, on such an occasion, don't you want to be humble and humble? Don't you talk about etiquette, righteousness and shame? The old lady is not in good health, if there is a good one today, I see how you can block the mouths of the people in the world?" The second housekeeper of the inner mansion on the side also stood up, they were all loyal to the Gengen's Yuanfeng Wangfu family.
"Li An? Li Meng's henchman. Li Ji glanced at him, "You helped you do all the dirty things of the third young master of your family, right?" A Sven scum, a vicious minion, I can't control how many bad things you have done over the years, but five years ago, Huyan Leopard in Hujia Casino in Cixi Town attacked me, you contacted me, right?"
Li An's face changed, and then he shouted injustice: "Third young master, I have been wronged, wronged, the villain has always been law-abiding, and he will never do such a poisonous thing, third young master, you have no evidence or certificate, you can't indiscriminately wronged a good person... ”
Li Ji's expression was calm, staring at Li An, pressing the sword with his right hand, this kind of wordless, heavy pressure made the restless Li An a little unbearable, and began to look at his master, Li Meng, Li Ji smiled slightly, "Don't look at him, he can't help you... Then he ignored it, this kind of small role, killing him would be cheap for him, and when he fell into the hands of a eunuch like the prince later, it was the beginning of his suffering.
Seeing Li Ji walking towards Li Meng, Li Mingru couldn't bear it anymore, and scolded: "Animal, you, you are simply mad, killing your brothers, look at how you face the wheel of heaven... ”
The old lady was even more angry, "Li Ji, if you dare to make a move, the old man will give up his life, and he will fight with you... ”
The more disappointed Li Ji was, the more indulgent he became, "For the sake of a fake son, but I have to fight hard with my real son, this family is really wonderful... Looking at Li Meng, "Look, for you, a fallen grass chicken prince, they don't even want their own son, do they feel a special sense of accomplishment in their hearts?"
Before Li Meng could say anything, there was an abnormal sound of running and shouting from the outer courtyard of the Li Mansion, which gradually became clear, the nails and leaves collided, and the weapons were sonorous...
"Hurry up and go outside and see what's going on?" Li Mingru instructed a servant, and everyone else focused on Li Ji...
Li Ji found a chair, sat down with a golden knife, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me, what fruits are planted, what flowers are bloomed; ”
Everyone was shocked, and they still needed to ask carefully, but where did they come. The door of the flower hall was violently pushed down, and dozens of armor-wearing Shuangcheng guards entered consistently, and after controlling the situation, the prince, Cheng Cheng, the commander of the palace guards, and a few old men walked in. . .
"Master Cheng, you are... As soon as Li Mingru spoke, he was stopped. The little eunuch unfolded the decree and read it aloud in a voice that did not match his age: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict... Li Meng didn't want to repent, and intended to rebel... The three clans, parents, children, brothers and sisters were specially arrested and questioned in Beijing, and other colluding relatives such as the Zhu family were arrested and tried on the spot. Chin this. ”
Under the shock of the Li clan, there were soldiers who were familiar with the Li family's mansion to quickly identify the next lock, for a while, the man was willing to invite, the woman cried, and outside the house, there was a mess...
Wang Gonggong ignored the voices of the Li family shouting and pleading, and only walked in front of Li Ji hesitantly, and before he could speak, Li Ji rushed to the front: "The flower hall is chaotic, why don't you go to the study with me for a cup of tea?"
As soon as the prince heard this voice, it was the accent of the mysterious Taoist in Beigukou, and he had no doubt, and hurriedly said respectfully: "The Taoist chief commanded, and the eunuch dared not to obey." He turned his head and shouted at his subordinates: "There are crimes that have been discovered, and the circumstances are different; the old man and lady of the Li Mansion did not know about it, so they were temporarily detained in the palace and restricted from going out; Li Mengfeng's royal palace and his minions were coerced and sent to the palace prison to await arraignment. “
Li Ji shook his head helplessly, he had already agreed with Chongfa that he would definitely send the Li clan people to the prison for a trip, so that they would be sober and sober, and then bail them out, anyway, they would not suffer much in the prison. This painstaking effort was directly ruined by the prince of this force, and he probably didn't dare to provoke Li Ji, for fear of locking up his family and attracting revenge afterwards, so he directly took out Li Ji's parents here. At this point, there is nothing to say, and it seems that this timid father-in-law is no wonder.
In the stunned eyes of the Li clan, Li Ji and Wang Gonggong walked into the study on the side, and everyone completely figured out what this arrogant Li Lao Er relied on.
Li Ji sat on the Taishi's chair with a golden knife, but the prince said that he didn't sit on anything, so he had to go with him, only to hear the old eunuch say: "The Li family has an immortal chief, and there is no hindrance; the heavy pharaoh immortal master has gone to Guancheng to submit a letter, and he will return in 5 or 6 days if he is fast; Li Meng and other people who commit capital crimes are not exempt, that is the face given by the immortal chief, and this face royal family will inevitably be returned, and the Li family is prosperous and rich, just around the corner... “
It is true that the Tao is above the imperial power, but in the actual management of the secular state, the power of the state must also be respected, and this is the key to the long-term peace and stability of a country. As a cultivator, Li Ji interfered with the imperial power with family affairs, which is disrespectful and also a right; In the final analysis, Li Ji is to protect the Li family to the death, including Li Meng, it is not impossible, but it can't help but give people the feeling of being too domineering, arrogant like this, but it is just right, everyone has face, everyone takes what they need, and everyone is happy.
