Farming Beneath the Changbai Mountains

In the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, the third young lady threw herself into her mother's arms with red and swollen cheeks and burst into tears. "Mom, you have to make the decision for your daughter. You see, my daughter was beaten by them. How can I go out to meet people in the future?" She has been pampered since she was a child, and no one has ever dared to disobey her. Unexpectedly, this time , it was repaired so badly. How could the third young lady have ever suffered such a grievance? She just lay in her mother's arms and couldn't get up.

Mrs. Zhenbei Hou is a beautiful woman about fifty years old. She gave birth to four sons and finally a daughter, who was naturally loved by all. My daughter can do whatever she wants, and she is used to such an arrogant and willful third lady. "My dear, tell me, who is so brave that he dares to bully my precious daughter? My mother asked your brother and the others to deal with her."

The third young lady told the story in tears. As soon as Mrs. Zhenbeihou heard that she was the sister of Mr. Xu, the Bachelor of Attendant, she became very angry. "Okay, this Xu family has gone too far to deceive others, right? At first, your cousin, the fifth princess, was interested in Lin Zixuan, but later she was snatched away by the daughter of the Xu family, causing your cousin to get married sadly. Later, your cousin from your aunt's family, You just accidentally pushed that Jingxian into the water, and you were given a warning by King Fu. Now you have met a girl from the Xu family again. What happened to our family? Why is it so bad when you meet the Xu family? ?”

Mrs. Zhenbei Hou hugged her daughter and kept comforting her, "Don't worry, our house is not your aunt's house. This time I will make your father vent his anger on you." This mother doesn't care what her daughter does. Whether it's right or wrong, I just want to vent my anger on my daughter.

Just as someone outside said that Mr. Hou had returned to his residence, Mrs. Hou immediately got up and went forward. When I came to the front, I happened to see the Marquis of Zhenbei drinking tea. Behind him were two majestic men, who were his two sons.

Mrs. Mo wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and rushed to Zhenbei Hou Mo Yong'an, "Master Hou, you have to make the decision for our daughter. Our Qiu'er was beaten today."

When Mo Yongan heard this, before he could speak, his two sons behind him stopped. "Mom, what are you talking about? My sister was beaten? Which bastard did it? I'll go find him."

Mrs. Mo cried and told her daughter what had just been told to her, and then told her son and husband again, but she did not mention which Xu family it was. There were several officials named Xu in the capital.

At this time, Zhenbeihou and his two sons suddenly became popular. "Which Xu family is so bold? Even the concubine's mother-in-law dares to bully her. Third child, take the people away and settle the score with them." The second child of the Mo family was about to leave.

Just at this time, someone came in from outside and said, "Master Hou, someone came to the palace just now. It was said that the emperor announced that Master Hou had entered the palace."

When the Marquis of Zhenbei heard this, he immediately said, "I will go to the palace immediately. Second child and third child, you two are at home. Ask Qiu'er which Xu family it is. When I come back, we will go to the Xu family to settle accounts." I straightened my clothes and hurried out.

When the Marquis of Zhenbei entered the palace, he found that there was not only the emperor, but also Prince Fu in the royal study. The wife of Marquis Zhenbei just cried and said that her daughter was beaten by someone, and she was from the Xu family. Before the Marquis of Zhenbei had time to ask which Xu family it was, the emperor announced that he had entered the palace, so he still didn't know who had beaten his daughter.

"I bow to your Majesty." Mo Yongan kowtowed to the emperor.

"Get up." There was no change in the emperor's face.

"I've met Prince Fu." Mo Yongan saluted Mingyu again.

"No, I don't dare to accept your gift. Mr. Hou is a good tutor. It's really powerful for the third lady in the house to insult my unmarried wife in the street." Mingyu looked unkind. Just kidding, a little young lady from the Hou family dares to mess with his princess. I'm really tired of living.

Zhenbei Hou was stunned for a moment and felt bad. I just heard that my daughter was beaten, but I haven't asked which Xu family it was. Isn’t this the princess that Prince Fu wants to marry whose surname is Xu? Could it be that my daughter offended the future princess today? Zhenbeihou suddenly felt a little cold on his back.

In the past, some wealthy ladies in the capital dared to embarrass Xu Jingxian, all thinking that the prince is a prince, how could he really marry a little peasant girl? It's just a joke. After the novelty of the prince wears off, he still has to choose the princess from among the ladies from various houses in the capital. But who would have thought that after two years, the prince not only did not say that he was tired of it, but also set a wedding date to marry the peasant girl.

If you mess with that peasant girl again now, aren't you asking for trouble? This daughter of mine was arrogant and willful and caused a lot of troubles outside, and it was all her brothers who came forward to deal with the aftermath. She is so used to her fearless nature, I am afraid that this time she will be kicked on the iron plate.

"Did the prince misunderstand? I didn't hear that my daughter met the princess today?" Zhenbei Hou still wanted to fool him.

"Yes, I have never seen it. But she has met several of the princess's sisters, and she mocked them as country bumpkins and insulted Princess Ning'an. I wonder if Ling Qianjin said anything when she came home? I'm afraid Ling Qianjin just cried. Was she beaten? Master Hou didn't ask who hit her? Why did he hit her? "Mingyu said in a nonchalant manner.

Mingyu had learned some things before, but he was a grown man after all, and it was not easy for him to ignore matters between women. Because Jingxian fell into the water, Mingyu had warned many ministers to be careful. But you wouldn’t go to war over a few gossips between women, right? I originally thought that after Jingxian got married, there would always be a chance to take care of those women in the future. But unexpectedly, before they even got married, Jinghan would help clean up.

The Marquis of Zhenbei only heard from his wife that someone from the Xu family beat his daughter. He didn't even know which Xu family it was, and how could he know who beat his daughter. At this moment, Mingyu was a little stunned when he heard this question. "This..." Could it be that my daughter has messed with someone who is not easy to mess with?

"It seems that the Marquis really doesn't know anymore, so I will help him clarify his doubts. The person who beat your daughter is the adopted sister that the emperor adopted the year before last, Princess Ning'an." Mingyu smiled. said.

Zhenbeihou was speechless. His daughter was really capable. I offended others and was beaten by them, but when I got home I didn't say anything except that I was bullied. If they had just gone directly to the Xu family to cause trouble, today's joke would have been a big one. "Your Majesty, if there is nothing wrong with you, I will go back first. At home..." Mo Yongan didn't say the next words, but everyone understood it.

Li Mingrui nodded, "I called the Mo Qing family because I want the Qing family to go back and properly discipline Ling Qianjin. Let's leave it like that. The Xu family and the Mo family are officials in the same dynasty, so there shouldn't be any rift in the first place. Ning'an I will tell the princess."

Mo Yongan quickly thanked him and hurried back to his house.

"Mingyu, are you really going to let them go like this?" Li Mingrui asked after Zhenbei Hou left.

"Brother Imperial, let's end this matter. Now that the Mo family still has military power, we can't offend it for the time being. In the past two years, I have placed some close followers in the army. When the time is right, the Marquis of Zhenbei will give He just needs a name. The reason for this is that the Xu family's foundation is too low, which makes these powerful people in the capital look down upon. However, I think you can let Xu Wenhan and Yue Pengcheng go. Look, Lin Zixuan has done well in the past two years. Without experience, it will be difficult for them to grow." Mingyu thought of what the old man said and wanted to test Li Mingrui's tone.

"These two people are very capable. I originally planned to keep them by my side and wait for two years for them to take up positions in the Sixth Department. However, if you put it that way, it is feasible. Go out and experience it, and you will be more productive than in the capital. Harvest. I'll think about it later." Li Mingrui nodded and suddenly laughed again. "I was thinking that when Ning An beat someone in the street, he must have looked in high spirits."

Mingyu also laughed, "Isn't it? You don't know that I was in the house. I heard someone came back and said that the second sister beat the third lady of the Hou family in Zhenbei. I spit out all the tea in my mouth. This is Only the second sister can do this. This is her."

"She is such a good character, going straight and never turning around. You don't know, she saved me at that time. When I woke up, the first thing she said was to let me get better and leave as soon as possible." Li Mingrui recalled the situation at that time, He didn't notice that his title had changed.

"Brother, in your heart, you still can't let go of your second sister?" Mingyu felt a little worried when he saw his brother like this.

Li Mingrui came back to his senses and smiled. "You don't need to worry. Isn't it good like this now? She is my sister, and I will have no other ideas. Speaking of which, if I had forced her into the palace at that time, it would have been Let her bright and vivid color gradually lose its color. She is a woman who dares to love and hate, and has a clear distinction between good and evil. The life in this deep palace is not suitable for her. She is not even emotional in this harem. Where it should be, how can we talk about love and hate?”

Naturally, Mingyu couldn't say anything about this. "Brother, please go out for a walk when you have time. The scenery outside is very beautiful. Compared to the palace, it's a completely different scene." Mingyu could only advise him. "Emperor brother has been busy with state affairs every day since he came to the throne. He has never had a rest. Why don't we find some time for us to go out for a walk together? Maybe we can go to the second sister's place to see it. Didn't she say it is beautiful there?" Mingyu is I feel sorry for his brother.

"Okay, I'm really tired. Why don't we find some time and let's go out for a few days." Li Mingrui's interest was aroused. When he was the prince, in order to avoid the suspicion and assassination of other princes, he was extremely careful every day and never relaxed for a few days. When he ascended the throne and became emperor, he had to worry about world affairs again. Speaking of which, the days when he was recovering from his injuries in Shenchangzi were the most relaxing.
