Chapter six hundred and twenty-ninth docile thanks to the joy of the lord
A question suddenly arose in Li Xu's mind. He looked at Li Changyan, "Why does father compare me with Song Chengxuan?"
Li Changyan was startled when he was asked. Li Xu, who has always been smart, wouldn't he know his intentions? Could it be because today's Xu family's marriage was messed up?
Thinking of this, he felt a little dissatisfied. Although he had some concerns about the Anyi Marquis Mansion at first, so he came to the capital, but when he saw Xu's arrogant and rude appearance, he knew that such a woman was not worthy of entering the Li family.
door.
"Does this need to be said?" Li Changyan said dissatisfiedly, "The Song family is not a high-ranking family. For many generations in the past, there were no prominent figures. Now the emperor avoids those old families and wants to promote new nobles. Civil servants have no way to go.
Running a business all your life is just like your teacher. Our Li family has the background of military generals, so naturally we want to strive for the title of general.
The northwest is now in chaos. I don’t know when or what month the court will be able to organize it properly again. The southeast and northern borders are the top priority, and the emperor must hold them in his hands. Song Chengxuan’s move to the southeast is already popular. If you want to show your ambition, you can
We can only count on Northern Xinjiang.
Next, both you and Song Chengxuan will find ways to become high-ranking officials in the border area, so naturally we will compare with Song Chengxuan."
Li Xu nodded. His father spoke smoothly and there was nothing hidden. It seemed that his father did not know the inside story.
"Okay," Li Changyan said, "rest early, don't hurt your body."
Li Xu sent Li Changyan out and carefully recalled Li Changyan's words. His mother had indeed hidden something from his father. He knew that his mother chanted sutras in front of the Buddha and became a vegetarian every day not to pray for him. Could it be that his deliberate cultivation over the years was not because he thought he was smart?
, but there are other reasons.
He must investigate this matter as soon as possible.
Li Changyan went all the way back to his residence. Mrs. Li was still awake. When she heard the noise, she immediately got up and went to greet her.
"Why don't you rest?" Li Changyan said and handed over his hand to Mrs. Li to take off her clothes. This has been the case for these years. As long as he is at home, Mrs. Li will wait until he comes back to rest.
Mrs. Li helped Li Changyan wash up, then stood aside and waited for Li Changyan to lie down first. Then she turned off the lights in the room, leaving only one on the small table. When she saw Li Changyan frowning slightly, Mrs. Li hurriedly said, "
Is the light too bright?"
"It's okay," Li Changyan said, "You are always so meticulous. These days when you come out from home, I feel uncomfortable staying in my ancestral home."
Mrs. Li looked apologetic, "I didn't expect that I would be out for so long. I thought I could rush back a year ago. I didn't expect that something like this happened to the Kong family. If I ignored it and went home, I would be too heartless and unrighteous."
"
"You did the right thing," Li Changyan said. "Although Kong Wu was captured by Xu'er, the Kong family is grateful to Xu'er. You must know that Kong Wu was guilty of treason. It really caused a big mistake. The entire Kong family is not enough."
To fill this big hole, the imperial court only arrested Kong Wu and did not take any action against the Kong family. It was not because of Xu'er. If the Kong family didn't have such a colorful child, there would be no need to pursue any official career."
Mrs. Li didn't speak, with a trace of worry on her face, "Master, aren't you afraid when you heard about the Kong family? Our family has been well behaved before, why do we have to fight for the fame? I just want the master and the children to be ordinary."
An'an."
This is what Li Changyan likes about Mrs. Li. She always puts him and the children at the forefront of her heart. Even if he does something wrong, she can forgive him. When she needs money, she will take it without saying a word.
come out.
Li Changyan thought about holding Mrs. Li's hand. He did not marry the wrong person. Mrs. Li's Wang family was once a famous wealthy family in the north. Because she offended Taizu, she never fell into the family. When Wang married into the Li family, she only brought her with her.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wang knew how to take care of the housework. Not only did she give birth to so many children for him, but she also saved up money to buy land and shops. She tried every means to send all the children in the family to Kaimon. Only then did the Li family gradually gain momentum.
momentum.
Li Changyan was very grateful to Mrs. Wang, and the two of them had always been loving husband and wife. If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Wang suffered from a disease after giving birth to Li Xu, he would definitely let Mrs. Wang have more children for him.
"Let's go home early," Mrs. Li shrank into Li Changyan's arms, "The capital is too dangerous. I am already scared after seeing those people with my own eyes. It seems that this matter has passed, in case there are still people who are restless.
…”
Li Changyan said, "You are just timid. What's so scary about this? Our family has done a great job. Even if the court really goes to investigate the Kong family, it won't affect us. Didn't that gentleman already say that Xu'er is destined to be rich and noble?
Our Li family has to rely on him, so you can just wait and see the Li family prosper!"
Mrs. Li nodded meekly, hoping that everything would be peaceful after tonight.
…
the Kongs.
Miss Li kept stroking her growing belly. The baby came at the wrong time. What could she do to help the baby survive?
"Tell me, if I tell the story about Northern Xinjiang, will the court be lenient?" Miss Li murmured to herself, touching her belly.
After she finished speaking, she felt a figure flicker and immediately said, "Who is it?"
"Second Grandma, this servant has brought you medicine." Mother Yu quickly walked into the house.
Miss Li's eyes lit up and she looked over immediately. A gold bracelet could be exchanged for several packs of miscarriage pills, but it was worth it.
"How do you feel?" Mother Yu helped Miss Li up. It was very cold in the room. All the silver frost charcoal in the yard had been taken away by the government officials. Mrs. Li finally asked someone to bring some charcoal in.
He was even taken to the door by the Yamen to warm himself by the fire, so that only one charcoal pot could be placed in the room.
"It was really cold the past few days," Miss Li said. "I feel a lot better these past two days, but my back is still sore. I'm worried about the child..."
"You should take the medicine quickly!" Yu's mother said, "This is a pregnancy-preserving medicine that was bought at a high price."
Miss Li picked up the medicine bowl and drank the medicine in one breath. Then she lay down on the bed again under the care of Mother Yu.
"The world is hot and cold," Miss Li's eyes turned red. "After the accident in our family, only Mrs. Li still tried her best to send some things. Everyone else hid far away. Even the visitors from the Kong family refused to meet me, for fear that I would
Implicate them?
Only when people are in trouble can they see their hearts.
Jiulang is also cruel. He has discovered the clues a long time ago but did not come to inform me. If he had pointed it out earlier, maybe I would have a chance to change things. I have also known a lot of things in the north over the years. King Jian is in the north.
There are also people, I..."
"The eldest lady doesn't look well, it's better to sleep for a while," Mother Yu said softly, "Don't say these words casually, if someone hears them... you will really become a Jane King."
Miss Li shut her mouth. She felt very tired, but she had to fight for the sake of the child in her belly. She had to think carefully about how to tell the court to achieve great success.
Miss Li fell into a drowsy sleep for a while, and was suddenly awakened by a burst of severe pain. She couldn't help but groan. She struggled to get up, but felt something hot coming out of her lower body. She subconsciously reached out.
When touched, it feels sticky and greasy, like blood.
"Someone is coming, someone is coming quickly!" Miss Li shouted, and she vaguely saw a figure standing not far away.
It's Mama Yu.
Mother Yu looked at her coldly and did not come forward.
Miss Li seemed to understand something, and she wanted to escape from the house. The moment she moved, the pain swept through her again, and then she fell off the bed.
"Take good care of yourself," Mother Yu whispered, "and be more decent."
"No, no," Miss Li said, "I don't want to die."
"So many people have died, but they died more honorably than you."
