Yuanji didn't care about this and simply said: "He is talking nonsense."
He stood stiffly in the room.
"This Lian Xiaojun is very bad. Don't believe what he says. My wife has been with the Governor since she got married. Her health is not good. She rarely goes back to Lian's home. The only few times she is accompanied by the Governor, how could she run away?"
Go to Lian Xiaojun and tell him this?"
Of course, Li Mingyu had also asked this kind of question. He glanced at Yuan Ji and lowered his gaze: "He said that his father told his mother before the marriage."
In the bright spring garden, the girl Lian Qing sat on the swing and swayed back and forth, her clothes flying like a fairy. The fairy was sometimes sad, sometimes frowning, and sometimes smiling shyly.
"Xiaojun, look at the fish. I just bought such a big and colorful fish." The knowledgeable maid pointed at the little fairy on the other swing.
The little fairy jumped down and walked towards the pond on the side. She heard the maid and the lady behind her whispering, "Miss, what do you think?" "Then Mr. Li has been living outside our house."
Lian Xiaojun turned around and saw the fairy flying gently, looming in the sunlight.
"He didn't force me into marriage. Yesterday he told me that he was an impure child and was a child in exchange..."
"He had suspicions when he was a child and has been investigating the matter on his own. Later, he finally found out and confirmed it..."
After hearing this, the maidservant exclaimed: "What!"
Bloodline is the foundation of a person's life. The eldest son of the Li family in Jiangling Prefecture turned out to be a child of unknown origin.
The fairy stopped the swing and hissed to the maid, "This is a secret. No more than five people in the world know this secret."
The maid covered her mouth and looked around. The exquisite garden was exclusive to the lady, except for the child squatting by the pond looking at the fish. When the child smiled, the fish sank to the bottom one after another...
"Miss, that's too scary." The maid lowered her voice, "If anyone finds out in the future, they will be exterminated."
He is no longer a human unless he belongs to the clan, and the court will no longer use him, so he has nothing.
If the young lady marries such a person, her life will be over.
"You can't marry, you can't marry." The maid shook her head.
"He told me this just to make me think clearly." Lian Qing said, "He showed me his worst side, and he didn't deceive me or hide it from me..."
The swing swings gently, and people swing up like flying immortals.
"Oh, I've thought about it clearly."
The maid stood under the swing and looked up at Feixian: "What do you want, young lady?"
Feixian lowered his head and smiled: "Of course, let's get married."
Lian Qing and the maid were married together, and the whispers in the garden were brought with them, except for the little boy squatting in the pond and sinking fish.
"Although I haven't forgotten it, I never remember it, because it doesn't matter to me whose child Governor Li is."
"Even when Governor Li drove my Lian clan out of Bashu, I didn't tell my clan members about it."
If he had told his clansmen at that time, with this secret, even if they could not prevent him from being driven away, they would still be able to make Li Fengan pay the price.
The Lian family was a businessman unable to compete, and there were many dignitaries in the court who wanted to see Li Fengan's misfortune.
Li Minglou asked: "Why didn't he say?"
Li Mingyu's eyelashes flickered twice: "He said that the reason why Lian and Li Fengan became enemies in the first place was because they wanted to get married. If they both lose out, it won't mean anything to Lian."
So, Li Minglou didn't say anything, Jin Jue couldn't understand, Yuan Ji said directly: "He is lying."
"He said that Lian and Li Fengan are not relatives, so it is not surprising that they are enemies." Li Mingyu continued, seeming to see the gentle face of the beautiful young master again...
"But, Mingyu, we are relatives. You, me, and your mother have the same blood in our bodies."
"Your father, mother, and your grandparents have all passed away, and the hatred has passed with them."
"Now in this troubled world, let us become relatives again."
Whether they can be relatives or not is not important. What is important is whether what he said about Li Fengan is true. Since this secret cannot be told to others, Li Mingyu simply went directly to Huainan Road.
"Sister." He looked at Li Minglou, "Is what he said true?"
Li Minglou said nothing because she didn't know that she had never heard this secret in that life...
Yuanji said directly: "It's not true!"
Jin Jue, who had not spoken since the reply, opened and closed his mouth, looking a little strange.
Li Minglou saw it and asked: "Jinjue, what did you think of?"
All eyes were focused on her. Jin Jue was a little nervous and bit her lip, as if she didn't know whether to say something or not.
"You can say whatever comes to mind." Li Minglou said, "You don't have to think about whether what you say is right or not. We will make our own decisions after listening to you."
Jin Jue nodded and responded: "I remember that at home, I heard an older woman say that she entertained the old man when she was a child in Zhuangzi. That woman's family once worked in Zhuangzi, and everyone thought that she
She's bragging, because the old lady never lets me go to the village."
Li Fengan has been wearing a gold collar around his neck and a red belt around his waist since he was a child, because the fortune teller said that he was destined to have a disaster and could not go near water.
There is a lake next to the Li family's village.
Li Minglou said: "In other words, my father did secretly go to Zhuangzi to look for it when he was a child."
Li Mingyu and Yuanji looked at Li Minglou in surprise. Could it be that she already believed this?
Li Mingyu's face wrinkled together again...
Li Minglou put his hand on his face: "What does it matter whether this is true or false? Mingyu, no matter whose child the father is, we are all his children."
As for whose child the father is, what does it matter to them?
Li Mingyu's eyes lit up, yes, the reason is very simple...
"Moreover, both father and mother have passed away. Even if what he said is true, my father found out the truth. According to my father's character, since he did not let the truth become the truth at that time, then this matter will never be the truth again."
Li Minglou gently rubbed Li Mingyu's face, smoothing out the wrinkles on the young man's face, "There is no proof of this matter, and its truth or falsehood has no meaning."
Doesn't it make sense? Li Mingyu looked at Li Minglou and blinked his big eyes, but that was his father, that was blood...
"Bloodline." Li Minglou traced his face with his finger, "The blood in your body is your own. It's good to know where it comes from. If you don't know where it comes from, you are also you."
Li Mingyu's face bloomed like a flower and regained its brilliance.
Yuanji's tense body also relaxed. Yes, what does it matter whose child Governor Li is? No matter whose child he is, he is the Governor of Jiannan Road, and his son is also the Governor of Jiannan Road.
Governor.
"Okay, you've been traveling for days and nights, are you tired?" Li Minglou asked.
Li Mingyu nodded, raised the soup bowl on the table and looked at Kumquat: "Kumquat, I'm hungry."
Jin Jue smiled and nodded: "Young Master, the food is ready. I'll serve it to you."
Jin Jue turned around and left. Li Mingyu looked at Yuan Ji: "Yuan Ji, I came in a hurry and they will be very worried. Be prepared and I will go back overnight."
Back in Jiangling Mansion, he left quickly after confirming that Li Minglou was safe. Now he is not only Young Master Li, but also the Grand Governor of Jiannan Road.
Moreover, Li Minglou's identity must be kept secret. The appearance of the Governor of Jiannan Road here will arouse great suspicion.
Yuan Ji looked pleased and full of respect. He had not seen him for more than three years, and the young master was already very majestic.
But Li Minglou stretched out his hand to hold Li Mingyu's shoulder: "There is no need to go back all night. There is Uncle San and Lin Yu on Jiannan Road, Han Xu is here on Shannan Road, and I am here. You have a good rest before going back."
Is that okay? Li Mingyu was overjoyed and threw herself into Li Minglou's arms.
"Sister, I miss you so much."
Yuanji felt a sore nose. He could only express his longing when he was sure everything was safe. He looked at the two siblings hugging each other and backed away gently.
Walking into the night, Yuan Ji raised his head and let the rain hit his face. It turned out that the governor's life experience had such a secret. He didn't know whether to believe it or not. However, he seemed to finally understand how the governor faced the Li family at that time.
The occasional flash of pain in his eyes...
After eating and soaking in hot water, Li Mingyu spread a mat in front of the window and fell into a sweet and sweet sleep on the soft quilt.
Li Minglou sat aside and tucked him in. The night was already dark, the rain had stopped, and there was a low hum of insects outside the window.
Li Minglou opened half of the window and felt the coldness hitting his face.
I never expected that I would hear such a secret in this life.
Is it true that no one knows about that life?
No, it seems that Li Minglou clenched his hand and dug out a piece from his memory. It seemed that Li Mingyu wrote to her once and said that he had a secret and would tell her when the time was right. He would not tell her now to prevent her from being shocked.
....
She was confused and asked Xiang Yun. Xiang Yun wrote back to her, saying that when the young master grows up, he will do something big that will make his sister proud.
She was relieved, thinking it was for military exploits, and told Xiang Yun not to let Mingyu get hurt, just do his best, and then left.
Later, the Li family was driven out of Jiannan Road, Mrs. Li died on the way back to Jiangling Mansion, her relatives became enemies, and Li Mingyu became infamous...
Later, Li Mingyu met her, and then they both died.
There was no chance to mention the secret mentioned in the letter.
Is this the secret? Who told Li Mingyu? Lian Xiaojun? Impossible, if Lian Xiaojun exists, she can't have the slightest impression...
Xiang Yun?
Li Minglou was in a daze, and when his palms stung, he realized that he had pinched himself.
There is no way to know the secret of that life, and whether you know it or not is meaningless.
It doesn't make any sense whether the father is the child brought by him... right? Although she has comforted Li Mingyu in this way, she is not really at peace in her heart. After all, she is only three years older than Li Mingyu. After all, this is the first time she has heard of it.
...
Mingyu came to talk to her, who could she talk to?
Li Minglou turned around and saw the incense box on the table. At first, Wu Ya'er sent her the incense she made, but because of Anton's incident, she smashed it and threw it away. Later she told Wu Ya'er
, Wu Yaer made a few more and sent them over.
Jiang Ming smashed Yiwan Xiang into powder, looked at it carefully, and said it was better than the last time...
Xiangzhou has been stable for a long time, the surrounding cities have gradually regained their vitality, and there are more merchants. He may be able to buy better spices.
"They should have been robbed." Jiang Ming corrected, "Wu Ya'er collects city protection fees from everyone within his control. If he has money, he will give money. If he doesn't, he will give him something in kind... It's not like he behaves so arrogantly."
Li Minglou smiled: "Isn't this the same as us?"
"How can this be the same as us?" Jiang Ming retorted flatly, "What we did was so decent."
Li Minglou laughed heartily at that time.
Thinking of it at this time, she couldn't help but smile.
Li Minglou closed the window and sat back in front of his desk. With Li Mingyu's sleeping face, he spread out the letter paper and picked up a pen.
"...I just learned a secret about my life experience today..."
