Volume 1 Little Yuanba Chapter 4 Conspiracy Chamber
"What? Mr. Chen has just taken office and is already unlucky enough to encounter this. He is still exiled?"
After Li Dan finished speaking, he saw Chen Meng's face getting paler and said hurriedly: "Sister, don't worry, the capital is too far away. I can also go to Yingtian Guardian to write a letter..."
"You're here..." Zhou Dutou glanced at Chen Meng and put his words back: "The country's dynasty is the first, and you, a white student, are you, aren't you afraid of death?
Let me tell you that those scholars, the leader must be sentenced to the strangle, the servants seized fame, and all the criminals' family of three tribes were exiled to the Nine Territory!
If Mr. Chen only seized his post and could return home after being exiled for three or five years, that would be great. If you can save your life, please thank the emperor for his grace!"
Seeing that Li Dan was still dissatisfied with his pouting, he waved his hand: "Okay! Brother Dan, don't beg you here, you can't talk to me. I've already brought my words, and now I have to go back quickly.
Don’t mess around here, it’s not good to be known to others. Hurry up and take advantage of the fact that no one knows, how to get in and out.
As for me, I just pretend that I didn’t see anything and heard nothing.”
Chen Meng quickly thanked Zhou Du's head, then reached out and pulled Li Dan to salute him and thanked him. Li Dan looked at Chen Meng helplessly and nodded, following his tall back.
Yueying illuminated them with lanterns and walked straight to the wall where he came in behind. Zhou Du suddenly stood up and grabbed Li Dan and said softly: "I have something to say in the house just now. Let's take it back to give your uncle a word to ask him to learn more."
"Do you want to talk about the marriage between my fifth brother and the eldest sister of the Chen family?"
Zhou Du was stunned: "Smart, I didn't expect you to think of it? Then you should understand how important this matter is to the Li family?"
"If it were me, I wouldn't have agreed to do this even if I died!" Li Dan said firmly.
"Hmph, fortunately you are not the one who got engaged!"
Zhou Du sneered: "Chen, the Li family are both prominent families in our Yugan County. Now something happens to the Chen family. Fan Taizun (county magistrate) doesn't want to get in with another Li family.
It is about the decency of the whole county. You kid must bring the words, not to joke about it!"
"Okay, okay, I promise you." Li Dan had no choice but to respond. Zhou Dutou told him to be quieter in the past two days, and to avoid going out to cause trouble before the Tiqi left, etc. Li Dan responded one by one.
Zhou Du's head then put his arm, and saw him jumping, and he reached the other end of the wall after three times. He shook his head in anger and muttered: "Mr. Li passed on his poetry and books, how could he teach such a sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sacred sac
But it’s really what people say, ‘The illegitimate son doesn’t build a beam’!” As he said that, he held the hilt of the knife with one hand, walked through the front yard under the guidance of the lantern, and left the Chen family.
After coming out of Jizhu Lane and seeing broken branches and leaves all over the ground, Li Dan remembered that there had been lightning and thunder. It was obvious that there were not many water marks on the ground, so it must be that there were loud thunder and small raindrops.
A while ago when I talked to my sister Meng'er, the storm passed.
Li Dan lowered his head and stopped at the intersection. Going to the left was the county government office, going forward was the market, and going to the right was the way home.
He wanted to go left, but when he looked up at the archway at the entrance, Li Dan gritted his teeth and held back, turned around and turned right.
The archway was given by the ancestors of the Li family who refused to write a manifesto to insult the late emperor and was killed.
Although the four imperial gold characters "Model of Morality" cannot be seen clearly at night, they have already penetrated into Li Dan's mind since childhood. Zhou Du said it right, you can't ruin the whole family just because of his willfulness, right?
As soon as I saw the dark shadow on his shadow wall, a voice shouted: "Who is that? Is it the one I walk at night? Do you know if it's already curfew?"
"Xiu Er, why are you yelling? You're even more accustomed to a dog!" Li Dan cursed.
The servant named Xiu Er hurriedly took off the lantern when he heard the sound, ran down the steps in a panic and came up to follow the road, smiling and said, "San brother? Look at me, an old dog, your eyes are not working well at night. Didn't you be surprised by your car?"
"Hmm? What did you say? The eyes are not good at night? How long has it been?" Li Dan asked while walking in.
"Oh, it's about half a year." Xiu Er grinned: "I've seen the doctor and asked Wu Erniang for an immortal, but I didn't even work."
"Even if it's night blindness!" Li Dan turned around and looked at his face, and pointed with his finger: "You go to the market to find Lu Da, the second brothers Lu, and ask them for some pigs and sheep liver, and ask your family to slice it and stir-fry it with carrots, one pair a day, three or five pairs should be enough."
As he said that, he shook his hand and gave him a silver bean: "If your family has this problem, you can treat it together. Then drinking the liver-boiled water is also useful, and it will only take a slower effect." Xiu Er took the silver at the back and thanked him very much.
Li Dan ignored him and was about to go back to his room when he saw a lantern beside his fifth brother, napping in the corridor. He was awakened by his return steps, and got up to greet him and asked, "Brother Third, are you back? What's the situation?"
"You have been waiting here?" Li Dan was surprised.
"What should I do? My uncle and my mother are not allowed to go out. I have to wait here to wait for your news."
Li Shuo smiled bitterly and lowered his voice to tell him: "Uncle San went to see the county magistrate, but the door said that the master was accompanying the guest and was inconvenient to meet him. He saw that the curfew was almost at the dawn and came back. Now he went to the convention room."
Li Dan glanced at him: "Since that's the case, fifth brother, go and invite your mother to the conference room, and I'll finish it together." Li Shuo quickly agreed after hearing this, turned around and went to find Gao. Li Dan came to the conference room first.
The conference room is on the east side of the study, and is an independent yard. There is a stalagmites at the door, and there is a blue brick engraved on the Yue Cave door. Li Dan knew that it was the two words "Pure Ran".
The right hand of the entrance door is a doorman, and the left hand is a corridor that leads to the tea room. The house is built on the hillside behind the small pond, with two rooms on the front. On the left is a flower window corridor connecting the corridor along the slope and connects to the tea room. On the right is a flower hall that pushes the window and looks at the view.
As soon as Li Dan came in, two people came out of the doorman when he heard the footsteps. "Oh, is Sanlang back?" The head was Hu Qin, the manager of the hospital. The one behind was the beloved servant of the third master Li Yan, named Shun'er.
Li Dan glanced at the two of them: "My uncle and the others are inside?"
"Yes, yes, ask us to wait here, Changjing is serving tea." Hu Qin replied. Changjing is the Changsu of the eldest master Li Su. Li Dan knew from this posture that neither of them wanted to let others be present.
"Wait a minute, I'll report it!" No matter what, Li Dan is also a young master. Hu Qin quickly asked Shun'er to bring a stool to ask him to sit, and he walked around the pond and went upstairs to knock on the door to report it.
After a while, he ran back, smiled and bowed, "Sanlang, the two masters asked you to go in and talk."
Li Dan called out at the door: "Uncle, Uncle Third." Hearing the voice inside, "San brother comes in." When he entered the room, he saw that Li Su and Li Yan were sitting separately.
"Come in and sit." Li Yan waved his hand with a smile. He was whiter than his brother, with two thin eyebrows on his round face. Compared with his brother who had a stern face all day and used to holding a master's airs, he seemed much softer.
"Where have you been going so late? I'm looking for it all over the yard and you can't find it!" Li Su asked unhappily. His dark and long winter melon face was called Li Dan and got bored when he saw it.
In fact, in Li Dan's heart, he did not regard this place as his home. It was just a temporary place to settle down and a place to pass by.
He believed that he remembered many things in his previous life, otherwise how could he explain his self-learning of martial arts? Why can he remember his reading without a glance? It seems that history has matured long ago? How can he understand "night blindness" and its treatment methods?
Li Dan didn't know the answers, he just knew: they were like this, and there should be no other possibility. If the answer was different from what he knew, it would be a strange thing.
For example, what dynasty is it now? From the perspective of historical development, it should be the Ming Dynasty, but this dynasty is not called "Ming", and the emperor's reign name and name are not in line with it, but the historical events and contexts are surprisingly similar.
Li Dan couldn't explain this phenomenon. The only possibility was that he was in another parallel space, everything here was similar rather than the same as before.
Li Dan can clearly remember many things, including the sounds she heard in her mother's belly, the things she saw when she opened her eyes, and many other things that children at that age shouldn't have remembered.
He was very quiet when he was young because he needed to do all his time to observe and learn how to live in this new environment.
He still remembers the first time his father Li Mu saw him climbing up a ladder to look for a book, and then sat alone for two hours and read it one by one, so excited that he was incoherent when he was flipping through the book.
At that time, the father did not understand how his son knew the positive and negative of the books and characters when he was arresting Zhou, how did he know where the first page was and the order of reading was from top to bottom, from right to left.
You should know that children of the same age didn't even understand that they couldn't even eat the pen. How did Sanlang know this at a young age? His father didn't understand, but just kept saying that this son was born smart and was auspicious for Li's family.
His father, Li Mu, was the second son at home, but he was the first among his brothers to be an official and the highest-quality one in the end.
Unfortunately, he unfortunately fell into the water and died during the project of governing the old Yellow River (i.e., the old river), which caused the status of the second house to plummet.
Li Dan also began to change his temperament that year, and suddenly became obsessed with martial arts, which led to the attention of everyone in this family of poetry and calligraphy, and became an alien in everyone's eyes.
In fact, Li Dan knew in his heart that his father was not a normal death. He found that in this era, he must have the awareness and means of self-protection. He could not make a living by just reading and literacy!
"Everything is inferior, only reading is high!"
Li Dan also knew this in his previous life, but now his father's experience made him understand that at least in this era, although books and fame are steps or tools to gain progress, they cannot even protect themselves and their family. This step is like being built on mud and sand, which is not reliable at all!
Didn’t Li Mu lose his name inexplicably because he found that the food rations of the dike repairing river workers were misappropriated?
These days, there are no public, procuratorate, and courts, and no such thing as equality or rights. If you die, you will die.
Yes, Li Mu is not considered a clean official, otherwise how could he have such property that makes his brother and brother crazy jealous?
But if you have the life to earn a lifeless flower, the court will reward you with a reputation, posthumous title, and some pensions after death. That's all.
When Li Dan saw his father's result, he was shocked. He immediately realized that the relationship between people in this era had a different reality than five hundred years later. If he wanted to live in the present with the ideas that were at that time, it would be a long time for him to live.
In this era, if you only protect yourself, no one else can reach out or rely on it!
He began to squat on his horse stance consciously, and asked the little maid Bei Xi to make a pair of legs wrapping for himself, first stuffing river sand inside, and when he was wearing it for ten miles and still couldn't feel heavy, then change to stones and finally replace with iron sand.
He started to run around the whole family with two small wooden barrels full of water. At first, the family thought he was hysterical, but later he yelled at him several times before he knew that Saburo was going to get rid of his body.
The small wooden barrel became bigger and bigger, and Li Dan's strength became stronger and stronger. He took off his Confucian shirt and was filled with muscles.
He proposed to eat chicken every day, and even slapped the table with his family. People said in secret that he was willful and did not understand that the good young master would not do it. What is Saburo doing?
Of course, he made a concession in the end, changing to six eggs a day and eating one chicken every ten days.
But soon, I became fed up with the problem of eating water. I changed my liver, stomach, lungs, and waist, but I didn't eat my heart and intestines, saying that the thing was not clean.
Later, for some reason, I liked the technique of using sheep intestines and soju to make air-dried intestines. It is said that I learned it from hunters in the mountains.
Alas, it’s not so good. In the eyes of my uncle and my third uncle, I’m becoming more and more alien. Scholars should look like scholars. How could they catch chickens in the yard every now and then?
Li Dan disagreed. He said this was called "there is no more skilled than to suppress one's body". He even went to the restaurant to see how the chef cooks, steams meat, and sometimes he even gave him a finger to give him some advice.
He was keen to contact all walks of life, so he did not have the aura of a young man. In addition, he was strong, had martial arts, was righteous in his work, and was generous. He gradually gained the love of Yang Yi and others, but was despised by his brothers (except for the eldest brother).
His mother, Gao, always criticized his adoptive mother Qian, for taking advantage of his "unprofessional" problem, and she suffered a lot of grievances.
However, Qian is not Li Dan's biological mother, but her sister. Qian is the concubine Li Mu took when he was the magistrate of Lujiang. Her family was a famous wealthy businessman in the local area.
Li Dan's biological mother died when she was five years old. Not long after, Li Mu moved to the position of the prefect of Dongchang. Before taking office, he married Xiao Qian, brought her to office and handed Li Dan over to her to raise him.
Unexpectedly, before the two had time to have another child, Li Mu died. Xiao Qian's family helped the spirit to bury him, so they stayed in Yu Gan to treat Li Dan as their biological child.
Therefore, whenever Li Dan causes trouble or makes incredible actions, Gao said that Xiao Qian's education was poor, etc.
Although he looked down on Li Dan's various actions, there were some big and small things at home, and for some reason everyone would think of "going to find Sanlang", just like Li Su mentioned "little evil beast" this evening.
But now the "little evil beast" is right in front of him. He was expecting Li Dan to bring back some news to him, and he was afraid of his bravery, so he asked sternly and stopped talking, and pricked up his ears to listen to what he said.
