Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 329
He Li said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, I ask you to lead the troops to the battle to boost the morale of the troops!"

Deng Jing, who has been sick and raised in the Duke's mansion, came here on purpose. After hearing the news of Li Bing's death, he came out and shouted: "No. Your Majesty cannot leave Chang'an."

He Dong glanced at Deng Jing, who caught a trace of contempt and disappointment in his eyes, lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

At the end of the early dynasty, Li Bing's head was hung on the wall of the capital of the Xiongnu Dynasty, and the news that the Hun emperor led 20 troops to attack Qingcheng spread in Chang'an streets and alleys.

Qu's passed out, but Li's mansion fell into an even greater crisis. He was impeached from all directions in the court, and scolded by the people.

During the day, nearly a thousand wives and children of the soldiers who died in battle surrounded Li's mansion, crying and cursing.

At night, some people threw stones at the walls, and wrote curses on the walls of the Li family with feces and the blood of dead cats and dogs.

Some Buddhist pilgrims resented that Li Bing sealed the Xiangjiang Temple in Tanzhou back then, and spread rumors in Chang'an City every day, which made the people hate Li's family even more.

"Even if my food is rotten, I won't sell it to the Li family!"

"My family's meat is for the dogs to eat, and it will not be sold to the Li family!"

The servants of Li's house couldn't even go out, and couldn't buy daily necessities.

He Yiyang and his four followers acted like thieves every night, driving the carriage from the side door of Li's residence to the palace, and then brought food and items to the Li family.

He Dong ordered Qin Yue to lead [-] imperial guards to guard the outside of Li's mansion day and night, preventing the common people from approaching.

The old patriarch of the Di clan in the Shu region sent his children all the way to send memorials, and the whole clan tried their best to protect the Li family from being demoted as ordinary people.

Hao Ye, the governor of Hunan Province, sent his eldest son and great-grandson Hao Chao to travel day and night to deliver the joint memorials of hundreds of officials of Hunan Province, the teachers and students of Tanzhou Academy, and the people of Tanzhou to the early court of Xuanzheng Hall.

He Dong asked the eunuch to read aloud the memorial written by Hao Ye.

"Your Majesty, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Sir, he sacrificed his life for the country. Chang'an cannot tolerate his family. The hometown of Daofu in Hunan welcomes his family back home."

"When I occupied Chang'an, someone proposed to kill all the officials and famous families of the Kai Dynasty. The master said that it is not easy to be a minister, so he stopped my butcher knife and let me continue to serve as the old ministers of the Kai Dynasty." He Dong finished these words. , Whipped his sleeves and retreated.

Li Laoshi and Li Qubing went to the memorial and resigned as the founding marquis.

Qu's and He's made a memorial to resign from the county magistrate.

Li Jingjing submitted the memorial and resigned as the county head, and withdrew the fiefdom of Liuyang County to the imperial court.

One night, Deng Yun was wearing men's clothing and Deng Shiqilang led her out of the Duke's mansion, and came to the county mansion and entered through the side door. She saw Li Jingjing who had lost a lot of weight but looked pitiful to me.

With guilt on her face, Deng Yun cried, "Ms. Jing, I'm sorry. My grandfather didn't speak for your family in court."

Li Jingjing said softly: "It's okay."

Tian Susu visited Li Jingjing yesterday and said the same thing in a tactful manner.

Since ancient times, it is easy to add flowers to the cake, but difficult to send charcoal in the snow.

The Li family is facing such a big crisis, whoever speaks for the Li family will be suppressed by the officials and hated by the people.

The houses that pleaded for the Li family before have been impeached by dozens of civil officials. Now the doors are closed, and the people in the houses keep a low profile and do not participate in any banquets.

It is human nature for Tian Guogong and Deng Guogong to be wise and protect their lives.

Li Jingjing didn't complain at all.

Looking at the thin figure outside the window, Deng Yun asked in a low voice: "Ms. Jing, Brother Seventeen asked me to ask you, if he passed the Jinshi examination, would you marry him?"

Li Jingjing shook her head and said: "My family will return to Tanzhou when my brother comes back. I won't delay your Seventeenth brother's future."

She has already seen the prosperity of Chang'an, except for a few girlfriends, she has nothing to miss.

The next day after Deng Yun went back, she reported to Deng Jing that the Li family was going back to Tanzhou.

That night, Deng Jing even concealed the truth from Mrs. Feng, and came to Li's house in secret. He did not see Qu Shi who was recovering from illness, so he sincerely said to Li Laoshi and He Shi, "When will you leave Chang'an, tell me two days in advance. I will personally lead the army to escort you back to Tanzhou."

Li Laoshi said gratefully: "Thank you for your kindness. Yiyang will bring the Imperial Forest Army to send us back to Tanzhou."

Deng Jing said without doubt: "The Seventh Prince cannot leave Chang'an. I have been to Tanzhou before, and I am the best person to send you back to Tanzhou. Don't refuse."

He Shi nodded.

When Wang Yanyu learned that the Li family was going back to Tanzhou, she sold a shop in Chang'an under her name with pride, and exchanged it for 3 taels of silver bills. Hand it over to Li Jingjing.

Wang Yanyu wrote in the letter: Xiao Jingniang, you have no fiefdom and no source of money in the future. This is the dowry money I gave you.Don't you think I'm tacky.If you are a young man in the next life, and if I am still a young lady, I will marry you.

Li Jingjing did not expect that Wang Yanyu would treat her so far, and if Concubine Wang Shu disagreed with this matter, she would not hand it over to Qin Yue.

She was holding sixty 500 taels of silver bills, feeling heavy.

A few days later, Deng Yun and Tian Susu came to Li's mansion quietly together, and gave Li Jingjing gifts and banknotes from more than 2000 ladies sent by the military attache, and also brought a letter from Qin Wanjing and [-] taels of banknotes.

The content of Qin Wanjing's letter was that she stayed with Deng Shi every step of the way, for fear that Deng Shi would be overwhelmed with suicide and would not be able to visit Li Jingjing in Li's residence.

Li Jingjing only got along with them for a few months, and she was very touched by the sincere friendship she received.

One autumn rain and one cold, in the early autumn weather, it rained continuously for three days in Chang'an.

The examination list has not been announced for a long time, making nearly ten thousand candidates feel as gloomy as the weather.

In the hall of Prince Xia's Mansion, Princess Niu is reprimanding her eldest daughter-in-law, Princess Li, Li Juanye.

Only because Li Juanye not only did not listen to the old princess Niu's memorial to speak for the Li family, but also asked the eunuch in the palace to extract the memorial of the old princess Niu, and kept the matter a secret. Only then did I know.

Li Juanye said solemnly: "Mother, I understand what you said. It's just that I can't do this for the future of our family."

"You are so brave, how dare you disobey me?" The old princess Niu was so angry that she slapped the table and got up, angrily said: "Mr. is Jing Hai's master. Mr. has gone, Jing Hai must protect Mr.'s family."

Li Juanye said stubbornly: "Mother, our family has many ways to protect Mr.'s family, and we don't care about this moment."

Old Princess Niu said angrily: "This is the time when Mr.'s family needs help the most!"

Li Juan rolled her eyes and said, "Then we can marry into Mr.'s family, and have our second younger brother Qinglang adopt Jingniang as a side concubine."

She had two sons and a daughter.The eldest daughter He Xiu, the second son He Wu, and the third son He Quan.
