Li Man'er's series of operations were undoubtedly a huge blow to a young man who was arrogant and in his second year of middle school.
Li Qingyun's eyes were dull, his breath was unstable, and he sat on the ground without moving for a long time.
Aunt Wang was worried that he had broken down and wanted to help him, but was stopped by Mrs. Cui. She could see that Li Man'er didn't use much strength at all. Li Qingyun was not as good as others. Compared with Li Man'er, he
When it rises, it's still a little tender.
Probably due to stimulation, Li Qingyun suddenly stood up from the ground, and then rushed outside like an out-of-control cow.
Mrs. Cui was afraid that something might happen to him, so she quickly asked Grandma Wang to follow him and take a look.
As soon as Li Qingyun left, the atmosphere in the room became a little different.
Bai and Li Tian'er looked at each other in confusion. Li Man'er scolded Li Qingyun several times, which frightened both mother and daughter. They didn't expect that Li Man'er not only secretly learned medical skills, but also secretly practiced martial arts.
Before, I thought Li Man'er was just trying to show off her talent, but now it seems that she is really confident about Yun Mobei.
"Okay." Mrs. Cui looked at the people in the room with their own thoughts with a headache, and asked Mr. Li: "Second brother, your eldest brother is not in the house, you have to take more care of Qingyun. Whether it is studying, riding, or shooting, or
Or Qingyun's daily life, you should pay more attention to him."
When Li Yi heard what Cui said, he immediately knew that he didn't have to go to Mobei. While he was happy, he couldn't help but wonder who his mother had sent to Mobei.
"I am following my mother's instructions, but the matter in Mobei is of great importance. I wonder who my mother sent to accompany Man'er?"
Both Bai and Li En looked at Cui eagerly, fearing that she would assign tasks to their family.
How could Mrs. Cui understand their thoughts? Despite her disappointment, she slowly told them her thoughts.
"The second child is a weak scholar. He is good at writing articles, but he is not good at riding horses and marching. What's more, you still have to study books. This is a century-old undertaking and cannot be delayed."
Bai's eyes and brows were all smiling, "What mother said is that the second master is busy in the Hanlin Academy and really doesn't have a moment to relax."
Li Yi didn't seem to like what she said. He pursed his lips, but didn't say anything.
Mrs. Cui then added: "The fourth child is useless. He has been spoiled by me. He can't bear the slightest hardship. He is worse than a child like Man'er!"
This sounds like a scolding of Li En's incompetence, but in fact it is a covert attempt to protect him. It's not that Li Man'er doesn't understand, but she really doesn't want to get entangled in these trivial matters, which are of no use to her.
In the past, Li En would definitely not like to hear this. Comparing him with Li Man'er is not the same as calling him a waste. But now, Cui's words sound like the sound of nature. Anyway, as long as he is not allowed to go to Mobei
, no matter what.
"Yes, mother, you are right." Anyway, if he wasn't allowed to go, it wouldn't matter if he said a few nice words.
"It's a coincidence. The third child wrote back a few days ago, saying that he will return to Beijing this year to report on his work. Calculating the days, it should be here in the next two days. Then let the third child accompany Man'er to Mobei."
Mr. Li hurriedly said: "This is a good idea. The third brother is a military commander and is stationed in the camp. With him by his side, Man'er will be safe."
However, Li Maner felt that this matter was a bit strange. Military generals stationed in the camp were generally not allowed to enter the capital without an imperial edict. It was just to report on their duties, could there be anything else?
This guess was confirmed when Cui left her alone to talk.
"Grandma means for me to wait for my third uncle to go to Mobei together?"
"Yes, I'm really worried about you going alone. With Lao San accompanying you, I can guarantee your safety whether on the road or in Mobei."
Seeing a look of impatience on Ms. Cui's face, Li Man'er guessed that there was something hidden in this matter. Ms. Cui definitely couldn't tell her, and it would be in vain for her to ask, and it would arouse Mr. Cui's suspicion.
She simply stopped asking and just listened to their arrangements. Anyway, she could protect herself no matter what the conditions were. This trip to Mobei was a must.
When Li Maner returned to Qingpingxuan, the snow had stopped and the weather had become colder.
"Why did you come back at this hour?" Aunt Wu quickly brought her hot tea. "The food has been reheated several times."
Li Man'er took off his cloak, changed his clothes, and took a sip of hot tea. Only then did he feel that his tense nerves had relaxed a lot.
Grandma Wu was about to say something, but she heard Zi Yan say: "Mammy, let the girl eat first, and then we'll talk after she finishes."
"Yes, let's eat first."
When Li Man'er ate in the past, she wished she could have eight hands and eat delicious food. But today, the delicacies in the Marquis' Mansion seemed to have suddenly turned into boiled water. They could no longer attract her.
Put down the chopsticks.
"Girl, but the food is not to your liking?" Nanny Wu glanced at the table and said, "No way, this little elbowflower and fresh bamboo shoot soup are her favorite dishes in the past.
“Not too hungry.”
That's even more impossible. The girl's content is still clear. She probably eats more than the average person because of her practice.
Does that mean you are in a bad mood? Most likely it has something to do with the old lady. Could it be that something really happened to the Marquis?
Mother Wu did not disturb Li Man'er anymore. Instead, she pulled Zi Yan outside and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with the girl? What happened at Songhe Hall?"
Zi Yan shook her head, "They didn't even let us go in to serve them. We don't know what they were talking about, and the girl didn't say anything either."
After hearing this, Grandma Wu knew that it must be of great importance.
"Okay, you ask someone to boil the water. The girl will take a bath later."
When Li Man'er took a bath, she thought about the matter.
Li Shu's decision to go to Mobei was an unknowing move, but it was the emperor's order. The Xiao family did not dare to say anything and could only vent their anger on Li Shu.
In a clear fight, no matter who loses or wins, the Xiao family will suffer. Someone in the court will definitely say that the Xiao family has a disloyal heart, so they attacked Li Shu.
But if it was an accident, Li Shu's own misfortune could be blamed on the Xiao family.
As for what the truth is, who cares, as long as there is no evidence, it is an accident.
So someone from the Xiao family took action.
Li Shu fell into the trap and was undoubtedly challenging the imperial power.
How could Mobei not have the emperor's spy? Maybe the emperor knew about Li Shu's poisoning before the Li family did.
So the emperor recalled Li Sanye urgently, and then escorted her to Mobei.
This makes sense. It can be seen that Li Shu's poison was not that serious. It was just a game between the two sides and it was just dragging on.
It really is……
The most ruthless imperial family, they only care about interests and not about love.
It seems that this trip to Mobei is not only dangerous, but also very interesting!
Thinking of this, Li Man'er stopped taking a bath, quickly packed up, put on clothes, and told Zi Yan: "I'm hungry, let the small kitchen make me a bowl of wontons."
The soup is watery, but it is not easy to digest after eating it.
