Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 224 Regret
Jiang Shunian looked depressed, "The Drunken Immortal is mostly a place where dandies gather. Some of the ladies in Kyoto go there. Our An'an wants to go there before she is five years old."

Tang Bingxuan took the cotton cloth from Jiang Shunian's hand in a funny way, wiped it a few times and put it aside.

"If you are concerned, you will be confused. Who is not curious? When I was in the boudoir, I also yearned for Zuixianju, but I have never set foot in it."

From the perspective of Zui Xianju, it was just a mixture of dandies, and the boss behind him, Prince Jiacheng, would not let anyone cause trouble in his territory.

What Tang Bingxuan hasn't said yet is that back then, the head of Roujia County used to dress up as a man and go to Zuixianju to eat wine and listen to music, but now she still lives in peace and harmony with her husband and children.

Jiang Shunian would definitely not think that his daughter was not good. It was definitely because his brothers-in-law were getting older and started to make moves, but he did not expect that his daughter would listen to him.

"That being the case, I will teach An An some rules for boudoir girls tomorrow. An An has always been a good child. As long as no one deliberately guides her, she will be as outstanding as my wife when she grows up. I will find time to say hello to my brothers-in-law."

Seeing his wife's nonchalant expression, Jiang Shunian felt anxious but couldn't say much. He secretly decided to greet his brothers-in-law and be careful about his words and actions, so as not to teach his daughter a bad lesson.

I have always heard that my brothers-in-law are not weak in martial arts and are the best among the Kyoto children of the same age. I didn't expect that An An, a young kid who is just learning martial arts, could overhear them. It's time to give my brothers-in-law a hard time.

Brothers Tang Wenzhu, Tang Wenhong and Yuan Hao were currently in the Rongguo Palace discussing a trip to find plum blossoms in the snow in a few days. They didn't know that the eldest brother-in-law (eldest cousin-in-law) was brewing a storm.

In the blink of an eye, five years later, Jiang Shunian reached his thirtieth year, and was now the commander of the imperial army, in charge of the defense of the palace.

Tang Bingxuan has gradually attended the banquets of some officials' wives since she joined the job in Jiang Shunian. Although she was of high birth, her husband was not of high rank, so she also got to know many wives of low-ranking officials.

Tang Bingxuan was impatient that some people were too enthusiastic. Most of them used their airs to frighten many ladies who came to seek friendship, but there were also some who were thick-skinned and flexible.

The Forbidden Army mainly walks in the palace to protect the safety of the palace. It is easy to show their face in front of the emperor. Most of them are children of aristocratic families, and a small number of them are selected and qualified.

Qu Li, who was a member of the Imperial Guards along with Jiang Shunian, came from a poor family. He learned martial arts from a neighbor's bodyguard since he was a child, and was selected as a member of the Imperial Guards through layers of screening.

His wife, Mrs. Li, had been married to Li since she was a child. They lived in the same town but not in the same village. After Qu Li, a man of love and righteousness, became successful, he did not regret the marriage and seek another career, but obeyed his parents' orders and married Mr. Li.

Li was one of the few low-level ladies that Tang Bingxuan came into contact with who was from a peasant family. Tang Bingxuan's arrogance and unapproachability did not feel out of place in Li's eyes.

Mrs. Li learned about Tang Bingxuan's origins from her husband. When she heard that she was the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion, she felt that she should get closer to her, so that she might be able to support her family in the future.

Therefore, Mrs. Li would always approach Tang Bingxuan at every banquet. Even if Tang Bingxuan didn't talk much or get close to her, she could still regulate her anger and speak compliments with her small mouth.

After Mrs. Li married Qu Li, she was considered an official wife. She was eloquent and extremely enthusiastic. Even though many wives who came from official families looked down upon her, they would not embarrass the smiling people.

Li is good at maneuvering but has a good character. Moreover, her husband is a colleague of Jiang Shunian. Even if Tang Bingxuan is not enthusiastic, she will not embarrass Li.

Five years later, Jiang Shunian became the commander of the Forbidden Army and was the first person in front of the Holy Emperor. Qu Li was also promoted to squad leader and did well under Jiang Shunian. In the past few years, Mrs. Li gradually understood the Shangguan's wife's temper around Tang Bingxuan. Although she still flattered her all the time, she was at least more discerning than before.

As the wife of Jiang Shunian's subordinate, Li Shi, Tang Bingxuan would try her best to remind her that Qu Li was always the subordinate of her husband.

On this day, Li went to Yongninghou Mansion to meet Tang Bingxuan.

"Madam, I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Please help me and my family."

When Ms. Li walked into the living room, she knelt on her legs before she could salute, with tears on her face.

This was Li's first visit. In the past, she had only followed Tang Bingxuan at banquets. It must have been something big happening at home.

"You get up first and speak. If you can help me, you won't refuse. If you can't help me, you can only help me."

Tang Bingxuan signaled Zhixia to help Li up and ask someone to give Li some water to cleanse her face.

Mrs. Li knelt down as soon as she entered the door. Tang Bingxuan hadn't seen her face clearly yet, but now she found that Mrs. Li's face was still haggard and her eyes were red and swollen even after cleansing her face. She thought she was in a very difficult situation.

"Madam, my husband is a poor boy. He has always been conscientious in his errands, fearing that he would be indebted to the emperor if he failed to do so. He is by no means a robber."

It turned out that Qu Li was on duty with his team yesterday, but before he left his shift, he was suddenly captured on the pretext of stealing Concubine Chen's jade pendant. He also took the stolen goods, and now he was taken to the Criminal Punishment Division for severe torture.

In the past five years, the Holy Emperor still had no draft, but several noble daughters were admitted to the harem. Concubine Chen was the niece of the then crown prince Liang Yuan, Chen Xiaoyue, and the granddaughter of Jingting Hou.

In the past, Tang Bingxuan had always admired the low profile of Jingtinghou Mansion, but since Chen Xiaoyue entered the East Palace and her niece entered the Holy Emperor's harem, Tang Bingxuan has become more and more disdainful of Jingtinghou Mansion's style. .

The Princess of Li County was born in the Jingting Marquis Mansion, and her distant cousin Shao also married into the Jingting Marquis Mansion as her daughter-in-law. The reputation of the century-old family was due to one wrong move and one wrong step. Somehow, it became the case that the daughter of the family was used to seek wealth. Home door.

Tang Bingxuan's thoughts wandered too far and she quickly pulled back and listened carefully to Li's statement.

When Qu Li didn't come home from his shift yesterday, Ms. Li was worried. She comforted herself that perhaps Qu Li had something to do and couldn't come back in time to report, so she stopped mentioning it, but she was still worried about her husband's uneasy sleep.

Today, Mrs. Li went to the home of a fellow villager who was in the imperial army with Qu Li and inquired about Qu Li, but he had to go away on important matters. The wife of the fellow villager secretly informed her about Qu Li and asked her to find a way to save people. If she couldn't, hurry up. Pack up your belongings and take the children back to your hometown without causing trouble.

Li and Qu Li were childhood sweethearts and had a deep relationship. Li could not leave the convicted Qu Li at this moment, so she forced herself to calm down and think about where to ask for help.

Qu Li was originally from a poor family, and the most powerful person he befriended was his boss Jiang Shunian. Li could not see Jiang Shunian, so he could only come to Yongning Marquis Mansion to see Tang Bingxuan to pray for help.

"I will help ask about this matter. As long as Qu Li does not do this, he will not be wronged. Your children are still young and cannot leave you, so they can go home."
