Chapter 10 Transformation
Li Xiaoyao frowned and thought for a moment. Looking at the monk Zhijing, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I know. I don't see the fate and doesn't want to return. Is that right?"
Zhijing raised her eyebrows in surprise and nodded repeatedly: "This girl is really smart. You're right. Mr. Lin and I have to escape." Mr. Lin sighed heavily and long, reached out and took a piece of exquisite and carved white jade gourd from his arms, held it in his palm and looked at it, and handed it to Li Xiaoyao: "Maid, take this, if there is really any difficulty in the future, just go to my house and find the big housekeeper Lin Xiao. If Lin Xiao can't help you. You can take this jade gourd and go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to find Prime Minister Lin. He is my uncle. When he sees this gourd, he will be able to help you. Your business is not a big deal with him.
Li Xiaoyao looked at the white jade gourd in Mr. Lin's hand in surprise, turned his head and looked at Zhijing. Zhijing smiled and motioned, "Take it, so that Mr. Lin and I can rest assured."
Li Xiaoyao nodded, reached out to take the jade gourd, straightened up and thanked, "Thank you, sir." With that, he shook off the red rope tied to the jade gourd, put it around his neck, carefully took the jade gourd into his clothes and put the meat away. Li Xiaoyao did not dare to delay the two more. He said goodbye, jumped out of the car, took a few steps, and went back to Changfeng Building.
I don't know whether it was because of Zhijing's words, or whether the Taiping Mansion really began to be peaceful. Li Xiaoyao only felt that there were more government officials, officers and soldiers on the street than before, and the security staff ran more frequently than before. Even the business in Changfeng Building was much lighter. After Li Xiaoyao followed Wei Shuisheng back to the yard every day, he didn't dare and didn't have the intention to pester him anymore. When her eldest brother went out, she could no longer feel as peaceful and happy as she had been a few days ago.
Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng listened to Li Xiaoyao's worries about Mrs. Liu and Huang Yuanshan. Although they did not believe that Huang Yuanshan could do anything wrong, as long as Mrs. Liu saw Li Zongliang, she stared at him with sadness and resentment. Li Zongliang was frightened by her, and he was uncomfortable all over, and he had already wanted to live in another place.
After dinner, after dinner, Li Xiaoyao and Li Erhuai were at home. Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng quietly went out to look at the house every day, trying to move out before the end of the month, so that they didn't have to pay for the house in two places in a month.
After looking for more than ten days, the two took a fancy to a yard separated by seven or eight streets from here, a very small yard, and a house of an old couple. The old couple lived in the main house by themselves and wanted to rent out three east rooms to earn some money to support the family. It was far enough from the large miscellaneous courtyard. Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng were very satisfied, and the next day I took Li Xiaoyao and Li Erhuai to have a look, paid the fixed money, and prepared to move there at the end of the month.
Several people muttered that they must hide the matter of moving, but Mrs. Shen always had to tell her that Li Zongliang bought a piece of material and took Li Xiaoyao to talk to Mrs. Shen about the moving. Mrs. Shen was full of sadness and reluctance, but she also saw the matter of Mrs. Liu, and it was difficult to stay more. The brothers and sisters of the Li family are only entangled and want to move there, but she has lived in this miscellaneous yard for seven or eight years, and she has also made a small reputation for her work. Just sit at home every day to pick up the work. If she moves, the work will be gone.
After all, Mrs. Shen didn't dare to move there. She only pulled Li Xiaoyao and told her over and over again: often came to see her, clothes and shoes, don't find anyone else, just come to her.
There are still seven or eight days before the end of the month. At noon, when Taiping Prefecture was the busiest time, more than a dozen guards of Beiping State guarded several Wu domestic servants with blood and earth. They rushed into the gate of Taiping Prefecture. As soon as they entered the city, they cried loudly. The guards of Beiping State dispersed the crowd loudly and protected them. The servant cried all the way into the palace along the bustling royal street.
Before the sun set, the team of Princess Funing and her son-in-law Su Zicheng was intercepted and killed by the State of Liang on the border of the State of Wu. Su Zicheng was seriously injured and fainted. The letter of Princess Funing fell into the hands of the people of the State of Liang, and the wind generally spread throughout the Taiping Mansion. The rumor was very detailed that the people of the State of Liang had been ambushed for a long time. Su Zicheng was desperately protecting Princess Funing. Unfortunately, he was outnumbered and fainted seriously. Princess Funing was abduction by the people of Liang. Now Su Zicheng is still unconscious and his life and death are uncertain.
Li Xiaoyao nestled in the corner behind the counter of Changfeng Building and listened to all kinds of angry and generous discussions in the lobby. These long-lasting rich and poor people wiped their hands, hoping to send troops to Liang Guo immediately to retake their princess and avenge their gentle son-in-law.
But where did these letters come from? At noon, she watched the guards and servants run by. In just an hour or two, this matter spread all over the Taiping Mansion? How did such a thing come out?
Li Xiaoyao thought about Zhijing's words. This Su's son-in-law was first assassinated, and then his daughter-in-law was robbed. Looking at this, he was unlucky. He was unlucky. Who can benefit from Wu? The assassin fled into Taiping Mansion. Shouldn't the assassin escape to a place with high mountains and rivers? Why did he escape into Taiping Mansion? I don't know if the assassin has been caught now••••••
Li Xiaoyao listened to the gossip for more than half an hour before quietly leaving Changfeng Building and went to Wei Shuisheng to drink tea and read books.
The next day, the rumors were even more popular, as if everyone had experienced it personally. He excitedly described how the people of Liang ambush and how the emperor's son-in-law fought to protect the princess with injuries. Well, the emperor's son-in-law was even assassinated and injured! Sure enough, there has been a conspiracy! Even the blood of the people of Beiping made them excited. How did the people of Beiping be angry and mourned their princes and imperial concubines? How did they have sent troops and killed the State of Liang for revenge? How can the people of Wu be compared with the barbarians of Beiping?
Li Xiaoyao's uneasiness is getting stronger and stronger. The abattled is the most favored princess of the State of Wu and the beloved daughter of Wu Guifei. Will Wu also declare war? Taiping Mansion is now full of anger. I heard that the students have cried and went to the book. Such a great shame and humiliation must not be tolerated. The national prestige of the State of Wu must not be violated. If you want to fight, you want to destroy the State of Liang, you have to join the war, and how to boost the national prestige. What should you do?
Li Xiaoyao sold out the dates, hid in the corner and listened to the angry and generous hall, looking pitiful at the talkative old and young men. What to fight! If you want to fight a war, it is all your money, your people, and all the people will die!
How many people will die in this battle? How much money does it cost? I don't know what will happen to her little life. Even if it will not burn to Taiping Mansion for a while, but her business will definitely be much more difficult. Besides, once this war starts, who knows what will happen? Beiping can enter Liang the next day. This has been prepared for a long time, and there will be no Premeditated? The State of Beiping has long been premeditated, but what about the State of Wu? Will this Taiping Mansion also be slaughtered? But I'm really not sure. Mr. Lin and Zhijing have left early.
Li Xiaoyao's worries came true the next day, and the State of Wu also declared war on the State of Liang. Now the south of the State of Wu is still fighting with South Vietnam and then declaring war with the State of Liang. This comes out at the same time as the declaration of war, which is the addition of the Ministry of Household and the recruitment order of the Ministry of War.
Taiping Mansion suddenly fell silent, and there was a deep panic and worry in the silence. This addition to the recruitment of husbands can close every family!
Li Zongliang did not allow Li Xiaoyao to go to Changfeng Building to sell dates. Li Xiaoyao was always inexplicably uneasy and did not dare to sell dates again. After settled the bill with Mrs. Wen, he went in and out with Wei Shuisheng every day, drinking tea and reading quietly.
But it's time to come. That night, Li Zonggui had just arrived home. At that time, the Changfeng Building closed a lot earlier. He arrived home more than a quarter of an hour earlier than usual, as if he had been waiting for a long time. Following Li Zonggui's footsteps, the security officer accompanied four or five officers and soldiers into the yard, went straight to the door of Li's house and pushed The door broke in, and the body chief huddled his waist and introduced to the officers and soldiers who looked like a small leader: "These four are all good kung fu and good arms. Look, I told you that we will not fool the master's messenger."
Li Zongliang greeted him. Wei Shuisheng reached out and pulled Li Yaomei and protected her behind him. Li Erhuai's eyes aimed at the long stick standing in the corner of the room. Li Zonggui gently stabbed Li Erhuai and signaling the knives and guns in his hands of his officers and soldiers. Li Zongliang smiled and arched his hand and asked, "Master, I don't know what to order."
The little leader shook his upper body, slowly turned around Li Zongliang twice, looked up and down, nodded with satisfaction, stood still, and turned his head to look at the three Wei Shuisheng, with a smile on his face, turned around and patted the shoulder heavily: "Not bad! I'll give you a reward later. Well, you Baoli, these four strong men are enough!"
The chief security officer breathed a sigh of relief and did not dare to look at Li Zongliang and others. He bowed his waist: "That man will be handed over to me. I have to hurry to look at the cashier and go first."
"Go ahead!" The little leader waved his hand casually, turned his head to look at Li Zongliang and others with a pale face, and said, "Okay, brother, don't make his mother cry! It's not a bad thing to be a soldier and eat food. With your arms and a few brothers, after a few battles, you will rise up. It's better than anything else to go back and get a wife's shade or something! Hurry up and clean up and go with me!"
Li Zongliang grabbed the little leader and asked, "Brother, there is something I want to ask."
"Ask, we will be brothers in the future, just ask!"
"This chief insurance company counts our four brothers in their insurance, even if it's enough for this husband?"
"Well, yes! That's it!" The little leader said indifferently and ruffianly, "Brother, if you don't stand up for a stranger like you, who will take it? Okay, okay, don't ask this. Maybe this is your luck. Look at your body, huh? If you know how to work hard, it's a pity not to be a soldier to eat food! Hurry up!"
