Chapter 840 Even if life is too prosperous, it is also a worry!
Everyone laughed.
Brother Cat poured hot tea for his sister and let her hold it to warm her hands.
Brother Li moved the charcoal basin to his sister's feet, so he put up a cover to avoid her accidentally burning the corners of her skirt.
Li Zhensheng then continued what he had said before and said: "Originally, we had planned that the emperor would definitely protect the Wu family and make our family's grievances become trivial.
“When the time comes, our family will pretend to be disheartened, build more properties in Quanzhou, and leave a way out.
“I didn’t expect that the emperor would deal such cruelty to the Wu family, completely ignoring the queen’s face. This was simply too unexpected.
“The news has not spread yet, but I think it will be kept secret for a few days. By then everyone will know that the emperor punished the Wu family because our family complained, and our family will definitely be pushed to the forefront.
“Soon, Mr. Hou and Lao Si will be back. Nanbian Shop also sent news before, and Jiayi and Liu Yang also made contributions in Hailan County...
“Together like this, the flowers are blooming and the fire is cooking oil, which is not a good thing for our Li family!”
Li Laoer nodded in agreement: "Fortunately, before leaving the palace, the emperor asked for all the witnesses, and also deliberately concealed the reason for the enmity between the Wu family and our family.
“I see, the emperor doesn’t want to involve the queen, and he doesn’t want to depose the queen.
"This is the only advantage, so Fu Niuer doesn't have to get involved in rumors..."
Everyone nodded.
Mr. Wen thought for a while and then said: "Everything should be done in a certain way, and our family is going too far now.
“This matter about the Wu family has already happened. In the eyes of outsiders, our family is prosperous. There is no way to clarify this matter for the time being.
“What if the emperor has other arrangements and our family needs to be a cover, we don’t want to spoil the emperor’s affairs.
“After all, we can only start from Bei Zhengjun and Jia Yi’s side to find a way to balance this ‘degree’.”
Jiaren shook his head, "Teacher, I'm afraid the Northern Expedition Army won't be able to do it.
“The victory of the Northern Expedition was not just for my fourth uncle and Uncle Dayong, but also for tens of thousands of soldiers who sacrificed their lives and blood. We cannot bury their achievements just to avoid the limelight for our family..."
Li Laoer sighed, raised his hand to pour himself tea, and said, "Jiaren is right!
"Well, I'll write to Jiayi tomorrow to ask what his plans are, and we'll discuss it later."
“Okay,” Li Zhensheng joked and gave everyone a reassuring pill, “Other families are angry that their children and grandchildren have no future, and if they hear what we say tonight, their eyes will turn red with jealousy!”
Everyone laughed.
There is nothing you can do about it, living a prosperous life is also a worry!
After a few more gossips, everyone quietly dispersed.
As soon as the city gate opened the next day, Jia Huan rushed home to report the news.
The Northern Expedition is a great victory, and the Marquis will be back soon!
This news seemed to have wings and flew all over Xincun and Second Village in an instant.
Everyone is beaming with joy.
Especially in Ercun, almost half of the men in the family are the marquis' personal guards.
The "backbone" is coming back, which makes the women and children in the family almost go crazy with joy.
The women were very busy drying the bedding, cleaning the house, killing chickens and cutting meat.
The children are even more exaggerated. In addition to eating, sleeping and studying, they always guard the intersection, expecting their father to suddenly appear on horseback...
In the new village, the village chief also called on the villagers to clear the snow.
Go to the pig house again, planning to kill a few fat pigs and give the heroes who have returned from a long journey a tooth sacrifice to replenish their bodies.
The Li family is also very busy.
Not only do I have to help clean the Ye family’s yard, but I also need to prepare a lot of food.
Tao Hongying’s face seemed to be blooming with a smile, and she kept coming in and out.
Old Mrs. Li was dizzy when she saw it. From time to time she would say something scolding, and then she would also laugh from ear to ear!
The stars and the crescent moon are dressed like fat balls, rolling around in and out of the courtyard. They can only be quiet for a while when they are called to the stove, sit in rows, and eat meatballs in bowls.
Every time Jiayin sees them, he can remember when he was a child, lamenting the disadvantages of growing up, and then he would grab a bowl and follow suit...
In this way, we have been busy for three or four days. Everyone thinks that the time is almost up, and they are becoming more and more anxious and looking forward to it.
Neither Li Zhensheng nor Li Laoer entered the city.
It is rare to rest at home for a few days, and I want to wait for my brother to come back.
As a result, at noon that day, everyone was gathering together to have lunch, and suddenly there was a noise outside the courtyard.
Everyone thought it was the Northern Expeditionary Army who had returned, so they all threw away their chopsticks and ran out in a swarm.
In the end, someone did come back, but it was much unexpected!
Liu Yang was being pulled by the village chief and others to talk, and many villagers were watching.
Seeing the Li family members rushing over, he grinned, showing his big white teeth.
The Li family was stunned for a moment, but they were not disappointed.
Mrs. Li quickly asked, "Liu Yang, when did you come back? But you were traveling with Jiayi, where is Jiayi?"
Liu Yang was reminded and immediately remembered the reason why he ran back like crazy. He rushed Li Laoer and said, "Uncle, something happened to Jiayi. He was captured by Jing Zhaoyin's official!"
"What?"
The Li family members were startled and asked in unison: "What's going on?"
Liu Yang was hesitant, but Li Zhensheng understood and immediately pulled him into the yard. Everyone quickly followed him back.
The village chief was thoughtful enough that when he dispersed the villagers, he didn't forget to call someone to call Mr. Liu and his wife.
In the room, Liu Yang had already talked about the causes and consequences.
It turned out that they had been wandering around the city for two days and found out a lot of things.
Although I don’t know the specific details, it is absolutely correct that the Wu family bullied Fu Niuer and prompted the family to file a complaint in the palace.
Jia Yi was very angry and made up his mind to take revenge.
But the Wu family are all in prison, so the escaped young master Wu Yan becomes the only target.
It seems that Mr. Wu is also unlucky.
The day his home was raided, he happened to be having fun outside. Suddenly he heard that something was going on at home, so he hurriedly hid it.
He was not a very smart and decisive person to begin with, so he inquired around secretly, but without any clues, he thought that the queen's sister had made the emperor angry, which caused the family to suffer.
So he looked for people everywhere, hoping to ask them to come to the palace to intercede for his family.
Consider him lucky.
Everyone was concerned about his identity as uncle and were unwilling to help, but they did not take the initiative to report his whereabouts.
This actually made Young Master Wu think that nothing would happen at home, and there was almost no trace of his whereabouts.
Jiayi and Liu Yang didn't spend much effort at all looking for him.
In the morning, Jiayi deliberately drank some wine, acted like he was drunk, and stood guard near the alley of Wu Dashao's villa.
Then, when Young Master Wu went out, Jiayi pretended to bump into him and started a fight with Young Master Wu.
Wu Dashao, who had long been drained of his body by drinking and sex, was no match for Jia Yi.
With almost a few kicks, Young Master Wu was kicked by Jiayi until he vomited blood...
When passers-by found out, they screamed in surprise to attract visitors, and called for Jing Zhaoyin's official messenger.
Master Wu has lost his breath, and his family's rights have also been taken away by the lock.
Liu Yang witnessed the whole process and hurriedly came back to report the news as agreed by the two of them in advance!
After saying this, Liu Yang looked at the surprised expressions of the Li family. He was a little worried that the Li family would immediately anger Jiayi, and quickly added, "Jiayi wants to avenge the princess, but he also has other considerations..."
