The three of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and no one paid any attention to his hehe. Shui Qingliang had no choice but to laugh a few times by himself.

Shui Yan returned to Jingjiang Marquis Mansion. As soon as he entered the second gate, his mother-in-law came over and reported: "Second Master, the Seventh Lady has been here for a long time. She is drinking tea in the Fourteenth Girl's Courtyard. She is anxious to see the Second Master. She said that she has

Urgent matter."

Shui Yan hurriedly went to the Fourteenth Girl's yard. Shui Lian welcomed him out of the Chuihua Gate. She looked at him anxiously and asked in a low voice: "I heard that many people impeached the Fifth Master in court this morning. How is it? What happened?

What's going on? Is the Guo family behind it? Is everything going to be okay?"

"Don't worry, what could happen? Who can do anything like Master Wu? Don't worry, nothing will happen." Shui Yan didn't want to say more, and just comforted Shui Lian in general.

Shui Lian frowned, remained silent for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, what do you mean?"

Shui Yan was stunned for a moment and moved his neck uncomfortably, "This is not something you should inquire about. Don't worry, nothing will happen. How can Master Wu be so easy to bully?"

Shui Lian let out a long sigh, looked at Shui Yan and said, "I have made up my mind. If my family refuses, I will cut off my hair and become a sister-in-law!"

"You're saying something stupid again, what kind of nonsense is this? Okay, go back quickly, rest at home these few days, don't go anywhere, the Fifth Master must be busy, don't worry, everything will be fine

, you can go back with peace of mind, go back first." Shui Yan was in endless trouble and had no intention to say more. He waved his hand to dismiss Shui Lian: "Okay, I have something else to do, you should go back quickly, it's okay, don't think about it all day long."

Shui Yan walked out of the yard, Shui Lian stood there with her head down for a long time, then went in and said goodbye to Shui Ying, then came out and got into the car. The car swayed for a while, and Shui Lian suddenly knocked on the door and called Nanny Zhao to come in.

She ordered in a low voice: "Mammy, go to Liushu Alley and ask the Fifth Master for a message." Shui Lian paused and then said: "She must have known about the affairs of the court. Just say, let me

She should be more careful, and... let her be more careful, tell her that no one can help her."

Aunt Zhao looked at Shui Lian, sighed, agreed, got out of the car, and went to Liushu Hutong to deliver the message. Her girl was a person with very strong ideas, and she couldn't persuade her.

………………

Yu Yuanshan came out of Liushu Hutong and walked to the entrance of the alley. He paused, looked around calmly, crossed the street, and walked leisurely to Yuanfeng Guild Hall a few blocks away.

Yuanfeng Guild Hall is the largest guild hall of Liangdi merchants in Kaiping Prefecture, and it is also a place where Liangdi literati and students gather.

Yu Yuanshan's steps were brisk, and he turned around to look at the bustling shops and bustling crowds on both sides, feeling relaxed and a little excited.

I got the impeachment letter this morning, and it really felt like there was a dark cloud hanging over my head. After all, the Fifth Master took off late, and his foundation is still very shallow...

Alas! People are really incomparable. I am still racking my brains to divert this disaster to the struggle for reserves, so that the first and second masters have to come back to protect me. The fifth master is thoughtful, and his method is now

Although it is good, it will leave troubles in the future. Even if the elder and second uncle are forced to come back to protect them, they are extremely shrewd and cannot be bullied. If this thorn is planted, one day

It will cause great disaster.

Fifth Master is still very powerful, this move is really powerful! Although it is a bit rogue... it is not really a rogue.

Yu Yuanshan raised his hand and rubbed his face to hide the smile on his face.

The Guo family really had to accept this move.

Yu Yuanshan Shi Shiran entered the Yuanfeng Guild Hall. Everyone in the Guild Hall stood up, greeted him respectfully and politely, and said compliments and polite words. Yu Yuanshan held his hands in a humble manner and went around to socialize, thoughtfully and respectfully.

Answer the courtesy.

He was in charge of Liang Di Shang Fu in Prince Liang's Mansion, and he was a nobleman of this guild hall.

After a while, Chairman Qian of the Yuanfeng Chamber of Commerce came out with a long gown and hurriedly greeted him. He laughed even though he was far away and greeted him affectionately: "Old Yu is here, you are a lucky man."

By coincidence, I just got a few kilograms of pine mushrooms, and I asked someone to dig up a jar of old wine. I just sent someone to Prince Liang's Mansion to invite you, and you're here now! Have you met Xiao Fuzi?"

"I just came here because of the smell! No one needs to invite me," Yu Yuanshan laughed and replied, "I have something to do outside today. I love this thing the most. Do you want to invite him?"

"How can I not invite you! Xiao Fuzi will go to Liang Prince's Mansion to invite you, and Xiao Guizi will go to Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to invite Mr. Wen. The three of us will have a drink today!" Chairman Qian was affectionate and respectful, and allowed Yu Yuanshan to go all the way inside.

Yu Yuanshan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, everything went smoothly today.

………………

In the evening, Li Xiaoyao was talking to Luo Yan and reported from outside that Su Zicheng's car had arrived at the gate. Li Xiaoyao hurriedly asked Zi Teng to send Luo Yan back through the side door. He stood up, straightened his clothes, and went out to receive her.

Su Zicheng went to the Lotus Garden and saw Wei Shuisheng coming out. He turned around and looked around, and suggested, "Let's go for a walk in the garden."

Li Xiaoyao nodded in agreement gently and took half a step forward to let him go to the garden at the back. It was okay to walk, since her garden was small and pitiful anyway.

"Your Majesty, I think..." Li Xiaoyao lowered his head and swallowed his words halfway.

"What's the matter?" Su Zicheng stopped hurriedly and asked.

Li Xiaoyao sighed softly and looked up at Su Zicheng, "If it hadn't been for this accident, Brother Shuisheng would have been among the best. Now...it's all my fault. Although Brother Shuisheng lost one of his hands, his literary and military talents are still there."

, Brother Shuisheng is a strong and resilient person, I want to write to the court to trade the title of a third-grade lady in exchange for Brother Shuisheng's title of second-class scholar."

Li Xiaoyao looked at the surprised Su Zicheng, lowered his head, and continued sadly: "You don't know, these days, my heart has been cut like a frying knife, and I haven't had a moment of peace. When I saw Brother Shui Sheng's severed hand, I was shocked.

I wish I could cut off my own hand and reattach it to him. Whenever I close my eyes, I will dream. The dream is full of blood. This disaster is all my fault. If I wasn’t too careless, if it weren’t for... Brother Shui Sheng’s hand, it’s all because of it.

It was my fault that it ended."

Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao who was crying with regret and pity. He tied his hands and didn't know what to do. Just as he was about to speak, Li Xiaoyao looked up at him with tears in his eyes and continued: "Brother Shuisheng has broken his hand.

I have lost my fame and future... I have to do something to make up for this big mistake. People say that people with disabilities cannot join the officialdom. But I checked it yesterday and today for two days. This is not something explicitly decided by the court, but it is just what everyone thinks it should be.

The former Lord Shi Liangshi was a hunchback, and Lord Wen Yuxian Wen was lame on one foot, so it is not absolutely impossible."

Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoyao with a troubled expression.

Li Xiaoyao pressed down the string of tears with a handkerchief, "I know the difficulties in this process, but no matter what, I have to do my best. Only in this way can I feel more peaceful and feel better.

"

Su Zicheng nodded hurriedly: "That's what I mean too. I don't mean to...I don't want to make this difficult. After all, in this court...there is also the Guo family, and Ning Yihou is the chief examiner of this exam. You know this..."

"I know, but no matter what, I will try my best! I will do my best and only listen to fate. Your Majesty, please don't blame me." Li Xiaoyao's tone was sad but resolute.

Su Zicheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thought quickly, and replied happily: "How can I blame you? Since you have this intention, even if I can't help you, I will definitely not make it difficult for you. Don't worry."

"What about Lord Ning?" Li Xiaoyao looked up at Su Zicheng and asked in a low voice full of dependence.

Su Zicheng's heart softened, and he immediately agreed happily: "Brother, I'll tell you, this is not a big deal, don't worry! Brother and I just agree, don't be too... After all, Yushitai is also very restless these days.

.”

"I know that as long as the prince and Prince Ning nod, even if this matter fails, I will be willing to accept my fate." Li Xiaoyao said in a low voice.

Su Zicheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed Li Xiaoyao's words to comfort her. After saying a few words, the Li family's small garden went around in a circle, and Li Xiaoyao sent Su Zicheng out along the bluestone road to see him off.

I got on the car at the gate, watched the car turn out of the alley, put my hands on my forehead, and breathed a long sigh of relief, okay, this matter is almost done.

At the appointed time, Li Xiaoyao returned to Half Acre Garden with some exhaustion. Wei Shuisheng's injury had improved a lot. He didn't know whether it was the effect of the powder applied by Xi'an or the pills given by Lu Hua.

In addition to the two life-saving pills that day, Lu Hua sent people to visit almost every day in the past few days, and also sent many extremely rare nourishing medicines and medicinal materials. In addition to these, Ning Prince's Mansion and Jingjiang Marquis Mansion also sent people to deliver

I brought a lot of rare and good medicinal materials.

Li Xiaoyao didn't care about medicinal materials, and Xi'an didn't care even more. He used whatever was good.

Wei Shuisheng's injured wrist seemed to be healing day by day, and his body was recovering well. He would not let Li Xiaoyao sleep in his room again at night.

After taking a shower and washing up, Li Xiaoyao stood in front of the window with his hair loose. He stretched out his arms and was lost in thought for a while. He slowly swayed to the couch. He was hesitating whether to rest now or read some more books when he heard

Grandma Zhang asked the little girl outside the door: "Has the girl rested?"

"Not yet, grandma, come in." Li Xiaoyao responded from inside the room.

Nanny Zhang opened the curtain and came in with a smile: "There is something I need to report to the girl."

"Well, mama, sit down and say." Li Xiaoyao smiled and let mama Zhang go.

Nanny Zhang did not refuse and sat down on the edge of the couch with her body half sideways. "Early this morning, Mingwan came to see me and said that she told her mother about the Fan family when she went back yesterday. Her mother was so frightened that she prayed all night. She

I didn't fall asleep even though I was guarding my mother. After much thought, I couldn't calm down unless I went to take a look, so I came to look for me."

As she spoke, Grandma Zhang carefully paid attention to Li Xiaoyao's face. Seeing that her face was peaceful, she felt slightly relieved, and then said: "I think this is also human nature. Isn't this person just a person of love and justice?"

, although she had some unpleasantness with her family when she got married, after all, they are a family, and they have been through hardships all the way. If something happens, they just go home and hide away. This person will be boring. I
