"I really fell down on the mountain. Big brother can testify. If you don't believe me, you can ask big brother!" The little fat man loudly defended himself. In his opinion, a pack of "Ten Lixiang" candied fruit is enough to bribe anyone.
"I heard that you were beaten by the young master of the Chen family and begged for mercy?" A beautiful woman suddenly looked at him and asked.
"Nonsense, obviously I beat them all by myself!" Seeing what my sister said, the little fat man blushed as if he had been insulted, and said dissatisfied.
"What, you hit the son of Chen Guogong's family!" Another woman's complexion changed, and she said in surprise.
There were quite a few people in the lobby. Apart from the old lady, Li Mingze and Li Mingyuan were there. The little fat man's mother was rubbing medicine for him in distress. The one who screamed just now was Li Mingze's wife, Fang Shi.
"You child, how can you get into trouble like this? Is the Chen family something we can provoke?" Fang said angrily.
The Chen and Li families were at odds with each other. The Chen family was very powerful, and the Li family had always avoided conflicts with them. The young master of the Chen family was very favored by the Chen family. What method did the Li family use.
"Sister-in-law, what are you saying? Although Yingcai is greedy, she never takes the initiative to bully others. But the Chen family has been targeting our Li family. Are they only allowed to bully us, and my children can't even fight back?" Li Mingyuan Although his wife, Liu Shi, is as low-key as her husband on weekdays, she will not be silent when it comes to her children.
Fang said with a displeased face: "Look, look, it's my fault. Chen and Li are family friends. Why did they become what they are today? Isn't it because..."
"Stop talking!" Li Mingze was the head of the Li family. After he spoke, no one spoke again.
"Li Wen, tell me the truth about how Yingcai and the young master of Chen Guogong's family clashed." Li Mingze pointed to a servant behind the fat man.
The servant took a look at the little fat man and gave him an apologetic look. He didn't dare to disobey the Patriarch's order, so he had to tell the whole story in detail.
After hearing the reason of the matter, Li Mingze said: "Although this matter is a matter of merit, but in the end it is a fight with someone. Prepare a generous gift and send it to the Chen family..."
As the head of the family, of course he can't act on his will. The Chen family is in full swing and is still brilliant. The Li family is supported by him alone. It is better not to offend the Chen family if they can not offend them.
"No need, although my Li family has fallen, it is not something that can be easily manipulated by others. What happened back then, our Li family was sorry for them, but over the years, everything that should be repaid has been repaid. The only thing that owes is The child of the Chen family..."
At this time, the old woman who had not spoken all this time stood up and said: "This matter, the Chen family broke the rules first, Yingcai did the right thing, and Yi'er was right. As for the matter between the children, if he, the Chen family, If you have to save face, you won't pursue it, as for Yi Er's friend—he came to Beijing for the first time, how could he have friends here?"
"I met him in Qing'an Mansion, and it was a coincidence to meet him in the capital this time." Li Yi walked in from the door and explained.
"Yi'er and Ruyi are back." The old lady smiled and said, "If it wasn't for Yi'er today, Yingcai would be at a disadvantage. We are a family, so we should help each other."
The old lady has lived her whole life. From the glorious time of the Li family to the present, she has seen too many things. She knows the root of a family's long-term continuation. She is actually very satisfied with Li Yi's actions today.
"Yeah yeah, big brother's kung fu is amazing, you must teach me, next time I see Chen Xiaotian, I can kick him away." Seeing Li Yi, the little fat man visibly cheered up, Excitedly ran over and said.
The scene he saw on the mountain is still deeply engraved in his mind.
"Hiss..."
Before he finished speaking, he gasped in pain, and was dragged back by Mrs. Liu's ears.
Fang sneered, and said in a strange way: "Hehe, Yingcai didn't suffer, but we offended the Chen family again. Back then, the eldest brother left Miss Chen and ran away, causing the two families to turn against each other. Now..., the elder brother's family, I am afraid I have had a grudge with the Chen family for several lifetimes!"
Knowing that she has always held resentment towards her eldest brother's family, Li Mingze frowned slightly, but it was not easy to reprimand her in front of so many people, so he turned to look at Li Yi and said, "In a few days, I will find a way to move around, see Let's see if I can transfer you to the capital, but the capital is no better than Qing'an Mansion, so remember not to be so impulsive in doing things in the future."
Li Yi could feel that although the second aunt seemed to be dissatisfied with him a lot, he really didn't take it to heart. After all, he had never seen a creature like the second aunt, and she was already immune to it.
However, after only a day of acquaintance, the majestic man in front of him has a lot of protection for him, really like an elder in the family, which makes him slightly moved.
As for the transfer, Li Yi didn't say much. Although he is just a small county captain, no one can transfer this position unless the emperor speaks. Li Yi feels that he is an idle county in Qing'an Mansion. The lieutenant is also very good. If you train a few capable men, you can live a perfect life with only a salary and no work. Isn't it much easier than working hard in the capital
It would be best for His Majesty the Emperor to forget himself a long time ago, this ideal is reality.
Thinking about it, the emperor is so busy. He takes care of everything during the day, and he is busy at night. Anyway, he is very busy during the day and night. He is a small role, and he should probably not take it to heart.
"By the way, your friend in the capital should let him leave the capital as soon as possible. If Chen Guogong finds out, it will be very troublesome." Li Mingze reminded again.
In his opinion, Li Yi's friends are naturally not some powerful figures, and they are far from being able to compete with Chen Guogong's mansion.
Li Yi nodded, but didn't take this matter to heart.
Li Xuan's inability to leave the capital is naturally not something he can control, it's okay if he doesn't check, if Chen Guogong's government finds out about him, it's not sure who will be in trouble...
…
…
"Check, we must find out who they are!"
In Chen Guogong's mansion, several guards with broken legs lay outside in rows, howling constantly.
A beautiful woman pointed to a few people in the room, said a few words loudly, looked at the young man with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and gritted her teeth, saying: "The Li family, it's the Li family again, twenty years ago Let our Chen family lose face, and treat my children like this now, I will definitely not let you off... As for Chen Yue, let him handle this matter, and go to the Li family to seek justice for my son."
Beside her, a middle-aged man looked at the wailing guards outside the door with the same gloomy expression.
"Licheng, other than the Li family, have you found out the identities of the others?" The middle-aged man looked at Chen Licheng who was standing there with his head down, and asked indifferently.
Chen Licheng trembled when he heard the words, and immediately said: "I only know that there is one person named Li Yi, who is from Qing'an Prefecture. I don't know what the Li family has to do with it. As for the person who ordered to break one of the guards' legs, I haven't found out yet. .”
The middle-aged man frowned even deeper. At this moment, a person walked in quickly from outside and whispered something in Chen Licheng's ear.
Hearing this, Chen Licheng immediately walked up to the middle-aged man, and said again: "I found out, that young man named Li Yi is the eldest grandson of the Li family who just returned. He is the son of the eldest son Li Minghan who left the Li family twenty years ago. The Li family has been sending people to look for it for a few days, and they only arrived in the capital yesterday."
As soon as Chen Licheng finished speaking, a strange noise suddenly came from behind the screen in the hall. The woman behind the screen was pale, her fists were clenched tightly, her nails were sunk into her flesh, and she didn't even notice the blood dripping down her palm...
