Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 343 Jingjing is crowned Princess Protector (2)
On that day, the patriarchs of the Hu and Liu families came to give gifts with their wives.

"It's better to get rid of enemies than tie them up. Your Majesty, the princess, forgives us for our sins." Patriarch Hu smiled brightly, his old face was more wrinkled, and bowed deeply to Mrs. Qu.

Qu Shi naturally did not respond happily, and said with a straight face: "You need to ask my husband about this matter."

The three major families teamed up with officials from all over the country to attack the Li family in the court and Buddhism in the folk, driving the Li family to a desperate situation.

He Yiyang, Prince Rong's Mansion, Duke of Qin's Mansion, Duke of Shangjun's Mansion, and Duke of Liang's Mansion all tried their best to protect them. He Dong withstood the pressure. He Qing and his wife were not afraid of their reputation being ruined and let the Li family live in Prince Qing's Mansion.

That's why the Li family was not degraded as ordinary people and exiled in the North, nor was they besieged and beaten to death by ignorant people and Buddhist pilgrims.

Li Jingjing said coldly: "If you ask my grandfather, he will definitely retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!"

"Princess, we are all deceived by the Ouyang family. The culprit is the Ouyang family. The whole family has been expelled from Chang'an and received due retribution." The old patriarch of the Liu clan pleaded, and almost knelt down to the Qu family. up.

Qu Shi waved his hand and said, "Take your presents. We don't need them in our house."

The patriarchs of the two major families had to take their wives and leave in despair.

He Shi and Qu Shi said slowly: "Mother, we have to wait for them to come for the third time and bring a heavy gift before we can express our forgiveness."

Qu's air said: "According to my mind, I will never forgive them."

"We're just expressing our position, not really forgiving." He put his hand on his left chest and said word by word: "Everything they did to our family must always be remembered."

Qu's eyes were puzzled.

The He family patiently explained: "Mother, one of the four major families has fallen. If His Majesty and our family push too hard, things will go against each other. The three clans unite to resist, and the losses outweigh the losses."

The Qu family was puzzled: "There is no royal family who will make trouble when the sun goes down. Our family will not deal with the royal family, why should the royal family deal with our family?"

He Shi said: "The royal family has no feud with our Li family for the time being, because the interests of the family are not involved."

Since ancient times, the emperor and the family have been enemies.The emperor wants to take back power from the family.

The Li family belongs to the emperor's faction, so they must fight against the family.

Qu nodded and said, "Birds die for food, and people die for wealth. I understand this truth."

The He family said with emotion: "The four major families are intermarried and intertwined, and even His Majesty is afraid of it. This time, the Ouyang family committed the crime of treason, collaborating with the enemy's country, and burning the army's rations to punish the nine clans. The world will not tolerate it. Everyone Shameless, the three major families did not show up."

Back then, the Mu family was a big family with hundreds of years old, much bigger than the Ouyang family, and was accused of treason by the unrepresented emperor, who slaughtered the whole family overnight.

The most unbearable thing for any emperor is the treason of his courtiers.

He Dong couldn't stand the rebellion of Ouyang's family, but the establishment of the dynasty is too short now, and he has to rely on the family, so he could only listen to Li Bing's suggestion and drive them out of Chang'an.

Li Jingjing said softly: "The Ouyang family has already arrived in Qingcheng, and they have to go further north. I heard that they very much regret letting Ouyang's family become He Li's concubine."

The He family said coldly: "If the Ouyang family had no rebellion, how could they help the tyrant to abuse? He Li killed King Xuan and King Qin, and did so many unconscionable things?"

Let’s say that Liangjun’s mansion was promoted to Liang Guogong’s mansion, Liang Tong became the son of the Duke, the eldest daughter Liang Xuyu and his son Liang Xusheng’s second place in Xinke’s ranking increased in status.

Liang Tong lost his wife in his middle age and never married again. He just raised a son and a daughter and lived a good life.He is a military officer, and he is still a general under Li Bing's command in the Northland.

On this day, Liang Tong's biological mother, Mrs. Dong, was summoned by Li Juanye.

Li Juanye tactfully proposed marriage, but Dong, who had been prepared for a long time, kept his eyes vague and refused to answer.

Li Juanye was sulking in her heart, but had no choice but to return Dong's house.

When Mrs. Dong returned to the mansion, she told Liang Guogong about this matter, saying: "Concubine Li even dares to disobey the old concubine Niu. How can a mother like her raise a good daughter? We must not have such a daughter-in-law in our mansion."

"Hai Wang Ye is the second disciple of the master. He has been stationed in the south for many years. He is also a hero. He married a woman like Princess Li. His house is uneasy, and he is looked down upon by the whole family and the world." Liang Guogong sighed and said: " To marry a wife is to marry a virtuous person, especially the wife of the eldest son."

Dong asked again: "When shall we go to Mr.'s house to propose marriage to Princess Jing for Shenglang?"

Liang Guogong felt that this matter was not sure, but the only grandson was very persistent to Li Jingjing, so he could only slowly say: "Wait for the master to come back." Then said: "Yu Niang is the eldest sister, let's make an appointment with her marriage first."

Li Juanye ran into a thorn in Liang Guogong's mansion, and summoned Wang Sen's wife, Bai Shi, and still politely proposed to betroth He Xiuxu to Wang Haoran.

The Bai family is also high-profile, and said with a proud smile: "My family's Ran Lang has already made an engagement with the young lady of the Hong family, a family that has been around for hundreds of years, and we got married a year ago. Then I invite the princess to take time to have a glass of wedding wine."

Li Juanye was rejected again, and felt even more angry.

At this time, Bai Haori, the eldest grandson of Vice President Niu of Chang'an Academy, came back from the north, and was recommended by Li Bing to He Dong because of his remarkable political achievements when he served as the county magistrate in the very poor Qinghe County. From the Dian Zhongcheng on the fifth rank, he can be regarded as a close minister of the emperor, with a bright future.

Bai Haori's grandfather was once the No. [-] candidate in the Kai Dynasty, but his biological mother, Bai Shi, had been wandering in a brothel in Chang'an for several months. Even though she was a performer rather than a prostitute, her reputation was still very bad.

When Mrs. Bai came to Chang'an, she seldom participated in banquets, and only interacted with very few noble ladies. Even so, she was still the subject of discussion by dignitaries.

Her reputation somewhat affected Bai Haori's marriage.

The three major families will not marry their concubine daughter to Bai Haori, but they are willing to marry their concubine daughter to him.

In the current situation, the Bai family has seen that He Dong wants to weaken the power of the three major families, so he will not marry them, so they all declined.

The Bai family wanted to marry the military officer faction, but they had never been in contact with the military officer faction.

When Bai Shi and Niu Kun were worrying about Bai Haori, Princess Li from Haiwang Mansion sent her close wife.

This woman wore gold and silver, relied on the power of the palace, and knew that Princess Li looked down on the Bai family, and wanted to give He Xiu's future mother-in-law the Bai family a blow, with an arrogant attitude, she said what Princess Li had said.

"Ma'am, our concubine has taken a fancy to your eldest son, and intends to betroth our princess to him. There is only one thing, after we get married, we are not allowed to live with you, but to live alone."

Bai said: "Hao Ri is the eldest son of the family and also my father's eldest grandson, so he asked my father about his marriage."

After the woman left, Bai Shi and Niu Kun went to Vice President Niu and told them about it.
