The door behind him closed with a bang. Li Daozong looked back, then took the reins of the horse from the man's hand, got on his horse, and left slowly.
He was quite uneasy when he came... In fact, it was not the right time to leave the Li family and set up another family at this time. It would be easy for people to think that Li Daozong was adding insult to injury, or that he changed the family too quickly, that he was a shameless person or something.
And once there is a flaw in his moral character, it will definitely affect his career, and he may even get into other troubles for no apparent reason.
But after much thought, he made up his mind to leave the Li family in Longxi at the most difficult time.
The reasons are very simple. There are only two reasons. One is that he has not much contact with the Li clan members. When he was young, he was looked down upon by his relatives. He, Li Daozong, is not that big-hearted and still helps those people when they are in trouble.
The second is that since the emperor wants him to do this, it is better to do it early than to do it late at night. If he hesitates, he will not please both parties...
In addition, after the news that he was serving as the Minister of Honglu Temple spread among the clan, he couldn't stand the faces of those clan members. More and more people came to visit him, and each of them talked about their family ties with him.
He was extremely bored.
In fact, no matter how many reasons there are, they are not worth the words of merit. He has set his ambition since he was a child, not only to be a high-ranking official and rich, but also to strive to leave a name in history.
Since he has high aspirations, he cannot give up halfway, let alone let him leave the Li family and set up his own business. Even if he is used as a knife to chop at the Li family, it is not beyond negotiation.
What he didn't expect was that his cousin's courage was still beyond his imagination.
Not only did he not comment or blame him for his actions, but his words were quite protective. In the end, he ran away in despair with his eyes filled with hatred for steel.
Thinking carefully about what happened just now, Li Daozong wished he could find a crack in the ground to get into it. She was still a woman. In comparison, he, Li Daozong, was nothing but a man. No matter in terms of momentum or size, he would lose.
A complete mess.
……………………
The sound of the piano sounded again in the study room at the back of the princess's house, which indicated that the princess was in a bad mood and it was best not to disturb her at this time.
The sound of the piano stopped after a few blasts, and did not sound again for a long time. When Li Zhiyun came in with a tea tray, he saw the elder sister leaning on the low table and splashing ink, not knowing what she was writing.
"What are you writing, sister? Why didn't you stay with your cousin for dinner?" Li Zhiyun put down the tea tray and talked casually. He had nothing to do today and happened to come back to the house to meet his mother.
He has now enrolled in Guozi, and he went there at the right time. Su Shichang was the one who held the Guozi ceremony, who was Li Zhiyun's former teacher. He took good care of him after he was imprisoned, and did not care about him because he was Li Yuan's son.
Abandon the friendship of the past.
Because the Chang'an Academy was to be built, He Chou, Duke of Pi, wrote that he could not favor one over the other... So the emperor ordered his servant Feng Deyi to rectify the princes and replace them in large numbers.
In other words, the Imperial College has a new atmosphere... Li Zhiyun has obviously caught up with the good times, and the new atmosphere naturally means new opportunities...
He was very satisfied with his sister's arrangements. Of course, he was used to being arranged by others, especially towards his sister Li Xiuning. He lacked the will and determination to resist.
When I came back today, I heard that Li Daozong was here. Li Zhiyun also admired this fellow of similar age. Compared with others, he only had the title of King of Chu. Now he has even lost the title of King of Chu.
.
He was talking to his mother there, thinking that Li Xiuning would stay with Li Daozong for dinner, and he was ready to go to accompany him, but he didn't expect that Li Daozhong left in a hurry.
Li Xiuning looked up at him and threw down the brush. The pen rolled on the table, leaving large ink stains. Li Zhiyun looked at it closely and thought to himself, Sister, is she angry?
"What did I tell you? If you don't study hard in school and come back every once in a while, are you worried about your mother or you worried about me?"
Li Zhiyun stood up helplessly and lowered his head to listen to the lecture... Although he had not built any career, his courage had been developed through experience. He was the only one who forced Li Xiaogong to surrender in Jinguan City that day, so a small scolding was enough.
I can't scare him anymore.
He just scolded Li Daozong in his heart. He must have offended his sister, but let him take the lead. He deserves to die.
"Sister, I'm taking a month off from school in prison. I want to renovate the dormitory in the prison. I don't know if one month is enough. It seems I'm going to disturb my sister again."
After saying that, he laughed a few times, and it was quite sad to say that when he left the capital to go to Sichuan, he was officially promoted to the King of Chu, which meant that he could live outside the palace.
Therefore, he had not had time to choose a mansion as the Prince of Chu's residence in Beijing, so after he returned to Beijing, he could only go to his sister and continue to live under someone else's roof.
Of course, it may not necessarily be a bad thing now. The prince who has his own mansion will definitely look much more conspicuous, far less low-key than he does now.
Li Xiuning waved her hands slightly irritably. She was just as calm and calm when talking to Li Daozhong, and now she was so annoyed.
In fact, she doesn't care what happens to Li Daozong, because Li Daozong is not close to his clan members. Now the Li family in Longxi is in troubled times. Although it is a bit disgusting for him to leave the group, it is understandable.
What she really cares about is that the emperor's instructions must be involved in this matter, otherwise Li Daozong's posture would never be so decisive, and she can guess a thing or two by listening to the underlying meaning of his words.
When she thought of this, she became very angry, and even had the idea that he didn't treat me well, so why should I care about what he did.
"Since you have to stay in the mansion for a month, you can't hang out with women all the time. You should go to the study room in the front yard to read to me. If the throne is gone, it will be gone. Only by relying on knowledge can you still gain wealth.
Moreover, when I send you to study at the Imperial College, I don’t just want you to study. I want you to make some useful friends so that you can support each other in the future.
By the way, be sure not to bring some bad friends back, or else I will break your legs. Also, prepare some gifts in the next few days to meet the elders in the clan.
Now you are the only adult man left on the main branch. You have to take on the responsibility. In the future, your mother, me, and your brothers and sisters will all be taken care of by you.
If you are incompetent, not only outsiders will see our family’s jokes, you know?”
After all the nagging, if you don't know better, you might think that the mother is lecturing her son. Of course, as the elder sister is like the mother, a few words of instruction to the younger brother is nothing.
Li Zhiyun nodded repeatedly, but only he knew how many words he heard from Li Xiuning...
