The noble lady who wears books has to fight monsters and upgrade

Chapter 10 Aunt's Thoughts

As the new year approached, the Duke of Li's mansion sent a festival gift to Ji Min who lived in the Marquis' Mansion in Huai'an. The uncle Chu, an official who came to give the gift, said that the father and son of the Duke of Li, that is, Ji Min's grandfather and uncle, were still not visible. To improve, it is not suitable to meet guests, implying that Ji Xi does not need to rush back to the house to meet in the first month.

Ji Min frowned slightly, thanked him, and said nothing more.But holding Ji Jun's hand unconsciously increased strength, Ji Jun sighed in his heart, and the doubts in his heart became more and more intense.

In the book, after Ji Min came to the Marquis Mansion in Huai'an, the Liguo Duke's Mansion seemed to have lost contact with Ji Min.During the days when she came into contact with Ji Min after time travelling, she also lived in Li Guogong's mansion for a few days.

In the Duke's mansion, Ji Yu's grandparent Li Guogong and his uncle's eldest son Li Jie were seriously ill, so she didn't meet them. She only saw Ji Yu's two cousins, the eldest son Li Mi, the second son Li Tan and cousin Li Fangling. .

The two young masters and the eldest lady were very affectionate to them, and when the imperial decree was passed to the Duke of Li, their expressions of shock did not seem to be fake.

On the other hand, Mrs. Wang, Ji Min's aunt is very calm, but Ji Jun can also understand that, as the daughter of a scholar and the head mother of the Li Guogong Mansion, there are some famous ladies in the capital, of course there will be some landslides. The confidence to not change color before.

What's more, it's not demotion, it's just letting the niece move out, maybe it's for fun!

In Li Guogong's mansion, after hearing the news from the servants, Aunt Wang's expression remained normal, and she gently blew on the slightly hot tea without saying a word.

Accompanying Fang Lu's mother said a little unfairly: "This Huai'an Marquis Mansion is outrageous, an aunt dares to plot against our lady from Li Guogong's mansion! If Aunt Su's plan succeeds, our cousin's reputation will be ruined! "

Aunt Wang smiled sarcastically, and said indifferently: "Mother Lu, what kind of mind are you messing with? First, what Auntie Su is plotting against the daughter of the Ji family, what does it have to do with my Li Guogong's mansion? Besides, my niece can It's so powerful that it can make father-in-law and uncle Ke bedridden, how can ordinary demons and ghosts be her opponents!"

Lu's mother smiled cautiously: "Madam, Miss Biao is just a child, how capable can she be? Besides, I heard that my uncle has made great achievements again, and my aunt also..."

Mother Lu thought to herself, if Miss Biao really killed her relatives, she would have to kill her own parents first.There's no reason to overcome grandparents and uncles!

Wang's complexion changed suddenly, anger suddenly appeared, he swallowed poorly, choked, and then coughed violently.

Mother Lu quickly took the teacup, patted her back and stroked her chest.

After a long while, Mrs. Wang said bitterly: "Child? You can't underestimate her? She and her mother are our nemesis... Cough, cough, cough, her fate is to be approved by the concubine Xian." Master Qingbin’s commentary, how can it be false? Cheng Fang told me personally that the Holy Majesty originally wanted Concubine Luo in the palace to raise Ji Min, but just as soon as she had this idea, Concubine Luo became seriously ill. The concubine also passed away soon, you said, if it wasn't her who killed it, then who is it?"

Mama Lu was speechless. The "Chengfang" that Wang said was the name of Concubine Jiao Xian in the palace. Concubine Jiao Xian was very close to Wang, so Wang secretly called her that.

Regarding Concubine Jiao Xian's claim that the concubine raised Ji Min, Mother Lu didn't take it seriously. To be honest, she didn't really believe it, and there was no way to verify it anyway.But, her wife believed it, so what can I do?
"If it wasn't for her mother who insisted on marrying that warrior Ji Kui, the Li family army would have nothing to do with our Duke of Li now. However, the twelve Thunder Generals challenged the Holy Master, saying that they were deeply loved by the old Duke. Well, in this life, I only accept the leadership of Li Guogong and his blood! The son of the world is already too sick to get out of bed, and the Twelve Thunder Generals said that the old lady took them to life and death. Now, as long as the young lady is willing to go to the barracks in person Sitting in town, they are still the invincible Li family army! Now, Ji Kui has made great achievements in battle. In the future, my Li Guogong government will not be able to get rid of these gangsters! Cheng Fang has said that the Holy Majesty does not like us The Duke’s Mansion holds the military power. At the beginning, the Holy Father intended to let Ji Min’s mother marry into the royal family, but she refused! Now, she is against me again! Her mother and daughter are not compatible with me, they were born to restrain me!”

Every time Wang uttered a word, her chest heaved more and more, and the anger in her heart became even stronger. The sentence "come and beat me" was like gnashing her teeth!

Standing outside the door, Li Mi felt like falling into an abyss.

Mrs. Wang took a sip of saliva, and continued: "The entire court is pointing fingers at our Duke of Li, saying that the father is a soldier who respects himself... This next sentence is not, is not..."

After all, Mrs. Wang didn't say the word "rebellion".

Lu's mother couldn't hold back and said: "Ma'am, it's no wonder those generals Lei Ting. Not long after the Duke fell ill, the Bei Liao tribe invaded massively, and the imperial court sent Lu Shangshu to command the army. As a result, Lu Shangshu was headstrong and didn't listen to Lei Ting. The general's dissuasion, insisting on the army going deep, ended up being tricked by Bei Liao, and tens of thousands of soldiers died..."

"The life and death of those people has nothing to do with me!" Mrs. Wang dismissed it, not noticing that Lu's mother's complexion became extremely ugly.

Li Mi's heart tightened. He remembered that Lu's mother had two distant nephews who died in this battle. One of them had reached a thousand households, the other a hundred households, and they had both been to the mansion.That hundred household just got engaged and plans to get married next year.And that Qianhu hadn't had time to see his newborn son!

That battle must have been extremely tragic, he remembered that eight of the twelve Thunder Generals came to the mansion and begged their grandfather to pick up their guns and mount their horses again!Among them, the oldest one is similar to his grandfather, who followed his great-grandfather back then, and the youngest is similar to his father.

However, without exception, they are all wearing white helmets, white armor, and white scarves!The whole body is plain!The oldest general, with white hair all over his head, was bleeding from kowtows, crying like a child!
And the few border towns captured by Bei Liao were horrible. It is said that after the Bei Liao army entered the city, they burned, killed and looted, and those cities became hell on earth!

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

I remember my great-grandfather said, without the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers, where would they come from Li Guogong's mansion!Now, leaving these thousands of soldiers behind and enjoying the honor alone, how can I feel at ease?

"I am the daughter of a majestic scholar, married into the Duke of Li's mansion, had children, and worked hard to manage the family. What I want is a peaceful and peaceful family. I don't want to be in fear all day long. I don't want to face those bloody killings. There is something wrong with that." Mama Lu, you said that I treated Ji Min badly and didn’t support her, but when his parents went to the front, why didn’t they consider how difficult it was for me to do it! Almost unable to gain a foothold, they let my father and brother be relegated..."

At the beginning, her father, one of the elders of the cabinet, Grand Scholar Wang, promised the Holy Master that the Li Guo Guild would hand over all of the Li family's army and would not interfere in military affairs.However, now, Li Guogong and the eldest son are no longer leading the army, but they have changed their daughter and son-in-law. Doesn't this mean changing the soup but not the medicine?
How could the Holy Majesty let her go, so she excused her father to retire because of his old age.And her elder brother, Wang Peng, the minister of punishment, was released!
And Concubine Jiao Xian told her that in order not to offend the Holy Majesty, they should have less contact.

The circle of noble ladies in the capital is always depending on the wind and the wind. In the past, wherever the Wang family went, they were mostly figures like stars holding the moon.Now, everyone's attitude has become polite and alienated!
"Mother Lu, I'm not reconciled... At the beginning Cheng Fang said that the Crown Prince died of illness, and the Holy One intended to install the thirteenth prince, but many ministers disagreed. But so what, what did they dare to say about the Holy One? Support the thirteen princes, and when the time comes, you will have the same glory and wealth as the dragon! Why go through life and death! It will only arouse the suspicion of the sage!... Fortunately, the son is ill, so you don't have to entangle with those warriors... But there is another hope Kui...Master Qingbin has long said that Ji Min is the one who restrains me, and she will restrain me so that I will not be able to live in peace for the rest of my life."

Mother Lu sighed, and called softly: "Ma'am, now, the Shizi and the two sons are guarding the mansion, and you have taken care of it, so don't get angry."

Li Mi's eyes were downcast, her face was pale, and her hands trembled slightly.

When he wanted to take the place of his grandfather and father in the military camp, his mother forced him to die.He thought that his mother was worried because his grandfather and father were seriously ill... So, he, the eldest son of the Duke's mansion, had to 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 was about to knock on the door was slowly put down again,

Without military power and meritorious service, why did you become a hero of "Conglong" in Liguo Gongfu?Just because you have a good relationship with Concubine Xian?
Mother, don't you think about it, what is the concubine Xian's confidence that the Holy One will favor the Thirteenth Prince?Do you think that being the crown prince of a country is such a simple thing?It is the exchange of courtesy between you and the princess of the county and the wife of the Duke, you still need to think about it.

What is the purpose of the concubine Xian telling you these words?

Grandfather became an official and uncle was released. Does it have much to do with Li Guogong's mansion?
At that time, there was some innuendo in the court for the position of the crown prince. At this time, the third prince was assassinated. Dali Temple captured several assassins and locked them in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. However, one day later, the assassins were all killed in the prison. !
And that day, my uncle went to prison!

Indeed, everyone knew that uncle didn't dare or didn't need to kill those assassins, but there must have been dereliction of duty!

As the emperor, you must always give an explanation to all the officials!And as a father, he also needs to give an explanation to the Third Prince, not to mention, this Third Prince is the Holy One's favorite son!
Alas, his mother has always been smooth sailing. To put it nicely, she has a simple mind, but to put it mildly, she is just stupid and easy to deceive.However, he was still stubborn and refused to listen to persuasion.

With a wry smile on the corner of Li Mi's mouth, she thought for a moment, then turned and left slowly.
