Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 503 One Hundred Two · Retreat

Mrs Qi could see Qi Yunxi's undisguised hatred for Xiao Heng, she was shocked for a moment by the madness in Qi Yunxi's eyes, and then took her hand and called out to her aunt earnestly, "Even if you want revenge, don't be in a hurry. For a while."

  It is easy to make mistakes if you are in a hurry.

   Recently, whether it is King Zhuang or King Fenyang, they are all planted on the word forbearance.

   There was a thick layer of dark green under Qi's eye circles, because Qi Yunxi was coming back, she was both happy and scared, in fact, she hadn't slept well these days.

  Pressed by her aunt's pressure, she was already a little frightened by this moody aunt.

   Qi Yunxi took a deep look at her and said after a while, "You really don't have the backbone of our Li family."

   These words immediately turned Qi's face bloodless, her hands clasped together, and her head bowed without saying a word.

   There was a strange silence and embarrassment in the room. Qi Yunxi was holding the small stove. Seeing that Mrs. Qi was silent, she was about to say something, but suddenly there was a voice outside.

   followed by the curtain was lifted, Xu Huixian walked in happily, saw Qi Yunxi first stunned, then cheered and called out to auntie, and ran towards Qi Yunxi.

Although Qi Yunxi was married at the border, in fact, for so many years, Qi Yunxi has been very good to her and the young master Xu. He has never broken gifts every year, and when they were six or seven years old, he even took them to Tong's house for two years. years.

   She is naturally close to Qi Yunxi.

Seeing her, Qi Yunxi's originally gloomy face also had a little smile, and he pulled her to his side and gestured, and said with admiration: "It's much taller than before, it's a big child, my aunt finally arrived to see You are married."

   She said, but couldn't help but feel a little wistful: "It's just a pity."

   Qi's eyes trembled slightly.

  Xu Huixian did not understand the meaning of her words, but just smiled and thanked her for the precious emerald head.

   Speaking of that, Qi Yunxi's face smiled even deeper, and he shook his head indifferently: "This is a gift for your engagement. When you get married, I will prepare something better for you."

   This face alone is probably worth less than 5,000 taels of silver, but Qi Yunxi said it was nothing, and Xu Huixian glanced at her blankly.

   She knew that the cousins ​​in the family were married, and the total dowry was 8,000 taels of silver, but when it was her turn, her face alone was worth all the dowry.

   It is false to say that there is no pride and joy in her heart. Xu Huixian thanked Qi Yunxi happily because the haze she had caused with Su Yao was swept away a while ago.

   Qi Shi, who had been silent until now, smiled and drove her away: "Go outside first to see if your brother is back, and ask your brother to also visit his cousin."

   The cousin in her mouth is the son of Qi Yunxi and Tong Tai, who also come to the capital every year to give gifts and walk around. The two families are already very close.

When Xu Huixian ran away without a doubt, Mrs Qi closed the door and turned around and stared at Qi Yunxi silently for a while, before exhaling a long breath: "Auntie, don't show any traces in front of the child. What? The Li family? That's all in the past, and now the Li family is shouting outside, no one remembers our past scenery, and it will only lead to death."

   She struggled to meet Qi Yunxi's anger: "Even if the Li family used to be a descendant, so what?"

When Emperor Yuanfeng seized the throne, it was already doomed. He would win the king and lose the bandit. The grass on the tomb of the deposed emperor is now eight feet high. He is like this. Where is the honor?

On the contrary, because the Li family did their best to defend the deposed emperor, it caused a lot of trouble for Emperor Yuanfeng, and even when Emperor Yuanfeng attacked the palace, the Li family took the lead in smothering him, which almost made Yuanfeng The boat capsized in the emperor's gutter, and Emperor Yuanfeng hated the Li family to the core.

   When he ascended the throne, he first forced the emperor to abolish Empress Li on the grounds of being a traitor and a traitor to the country, and then he carried out a major purge of the Li family.

  The Li family, who had been prosperous since the time of Taizu, was sluggish during the purge and was punished by the nine clans.

   If it wasn't for her and her niece being secretly sent out by her mother in the chaos, no one in the world would know about the Li family anymore.

"What else?" Qi Yunxi was poked to the point of pain, she stood up coldly and gave her a slap, almost angrily sneered: "What can I do? If the Li family is still the Li family of the two countries, it is the one Xuanhe's Li family, now you and I don't have to be like mice in the gutter, and you don't have to marry someone with the surname Xu! Your daughter won't be so humiliated and unable to fight back!"

   Mr. Qi was beaten and turned his head away, and sighed tiredly and helplessly: "But let's talk about it. Back then, he led troops to kill Empress Hu's brother who was still in the capital."

   In the end, it's everyone's position that determines their hostility.

Speaking of which, it is indeed Queen Li who has been provoking the abolition of the emperor to suppress the Yuanfeng Emperor, who was still a vassal king at the time, and also detained several vassal kings when the vassal king returned to Beijing to celebrate his congratulations, almost letting them have back and forth.

and

   Mrs Qi had to remind softly: "Auntie, when we were able to escape, it was the Queen Mother who signaled to Mr. Hu, who was on duty at that time."

   They grew up with their grandmother in their parents’ home since childhood. It was because Emperor Yuanfeng led an army to rebel, and their family brought them back to Beijing.

   But I haven't seen the prosperity of the capital, the dignity of the Li family, and bad luck has already come.

   It was Mrs. Li who realized that something was wrong in advance, and entrusted them to a trusted old ministry and sent them out.

   In fact, someone came to track down their whereabouts later, but the leader of the army, Mr. Hu, said it was the meaning of the empress, and it was only two girls who disappeared.

It would be fine if she didn't say this. When she mentioned this, Qi Yunxi's face suddenly turned into a pig's liver color, she opened Qi's hand and scolded: "What **** are you talking about?! She is just a fake compassion. If you really want to let us go, why are you still watching those people bloodbath the Li family?!"

   Leaving the clan and the protection of the family, the two girls are nothing but flowers floating in the turbulent times, and anyone who steps on them can turn them into mud.

  Thinking of the past, Qi Yunxi still can't control his anger and hatred.

After a long time, she pushed away Qi's hand: "Well, if you don't want to be a member of the Li family, you don't have to recognize me, there are only two of you left in the Li family, how can I be myself? It won't involve you."

   After talking, it’s still the same as saying nothing.
