You sell swords, I go crazy, I am a father in Shengjing

"What a good person to report illness at home. He, Li Cifu, just reported illness, and all of Feng Xi's cronies found excuses to stay in. Sun Qingzhi, Qin Zhui... none of them are fuel-efficient lamps~ "

In Jingren Palace, Concubine Liu Xian smiled after listening to the report from her aunt Qiu Yu. The Bodhisattva's face was as cold as a Rakshasa.

She just listened to her daughter's words and asked people from the organization to investigate at will. She didn't expect to find such a secret.

"Indeed, with so many people guarding it, there must be some big secret in the auxiliary mansion this time."

Qiu Yu understood her master's temperament best and immediately answered the question in a gentle voice.

Nowadays, the lineage of the Princess Protector is in danger. Some people choose to protect themselves wisely, while others are put under house arrest in the palace. This situation seems to be beneficial to them, but it also hides unforeseen crises.

For example, whether the other party is really powerless to resist, or whether he is secretly harboring something bad...

"Yunxuan, since you proposed this investigation, what do you think about it?"

Seeing Feng Yunxuan standing aside and remaining silent, Liu Xianfei finally nodded to her personally.

"Returning to his mother and concubine, Yun Xuan privately thinks that with Li Cifu's temperament, if he believes that what happened in Mingzhou was not Feng Xi's fault, but someone else's, then he will most likely find a way to overturn Feng Xi's case..."

"You mean, it's a lie that he's sick at home, but it's true that he's busy helping Feng Xi reverse the case?"

Concubine Liu Xian put down the tea cup in her hand and seemed to start thinking about this issue.

Li Cifu Li Minsheng is indeed a rare capable minister. He was born in a humble background but understands the public opinion very well. He has been an official for many years and has no other property except the house and one or two shops gifted by the emperor.

Most people admire such a person who has always been working for the people.

It's a pity that such a person is too honest and principled to be used by their organization, otherwise they would have tried to win over him long ago.

Not only Concubine Liu Xian thought this way, but Feng Yunxuan, who was sitting at the bottom, also quietly clenched her jade hand.

I think she had tried to make friends with this gentleman more than once, but he kept away from her because she was an idle prince with no political achievements and no redeeming features.

But does that mean she wants to be an idle prince?

In order to conceal her identity and to deal with all parties better, she, Feng Yunxuan, had to do this.

If she could freely display her ambitions, how could a capable minister like Li Minsheng get her Fengxi's turn?

And if she is Feng Xi, she has been a high-ranking princess since she was born, and her father doted on her maternal family to be strong, how could she have beaten her good cards to pieces until this year and relied on Qi Xiao to get ahead?

If Feng Yunxuan was holding a teacup in her hand at this moment, she would definitely crush the cup into pieces.

Sometimes jealousy doesn't come for nothing. It's because some people are having such a good life that no matter how hard you try, you can't catch up. Seeing that the other person is about to fall, they still do all kinds of things.

Qi Xiao, Father Huang, Li Cifu...

Every one of them turned towards her!

"Yunxuan doesn't know if Li Cifu really wants to reverse Feng Xi's case, but as a capable minister and the head of the Princess Protector's Palace, if he does anything to undermine the situation in Mingzhou, you and that person's arrangements are different. Has all your previous efforts been wasted?"

Feng Yunxuan knew very well that her mother-in-law hated her and admired Qi Xiao, so she tried her best to hide her hostility towards Feng Xi and prevent the other party from noticing her inner feelings.

Fortunately, Concubine Liu Xian's attention was not on her at this moment, but on what she said.

Yes, the Princess Protector's Mansion has not yet become a thing, but it has caused so many troubles for them.

This death in Mingzhou has ruined a lot of things for them. If Li Cifu was stillborn, wouldn't it become a big joke.

"Yes, this is a safe sailing ship. Since the people from the Princess Protector's Mansion insist on stopping us from entering the Cifu Mansion, then we have to send people in to see how they are going to save Feng Xi. "

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, please don't worry, Your Highness, I will send someone to investigate right now."

While Qiu Yu accepted the order and left, Emperor Shengde in the Yangxin Hall also received the latest news.

"I don't know what kind of god this unlucky thing met, but he got such a miraculous ability. Well, I was worried that someone would find out that Li Cifu was not in the house, but now it's fine, she actually sent him back!"

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? The princess has great talents, and the prince-in-law is also a strategist who can win thousands of miles away. With the two of them dealing with this situation, what do you have to worry about!"

Zhao Xi's eyes almost turned into lines with laughter.

In the past few years, the princess was stubborn and always quarreled with their emperor. The two father and daughter almost quarreled for three days and a small quarrel for two days. Their emperor would sigh after each quarrel.

How good is this now?

Crazy is crazy, but whoever harms their princess will not be punished, so the emperor will have less to worry about, right?

Who in this world doesn’t like to hear other people praise their children?

So after hearing this, Emperor Shengde immediately smiled and said:

"You, you know how to praise her. She is not as sensible and obedient as you say! That kid Qi Xiao is so honest, he guards her every day."

"Yes, yes, the princess and the consort are so loving. Wouldn't it be a relief if Qi Shuai and his wife were under the Quanxia?"

When Zhao Xi mentioned his old friend and his wife, Emperor Sheng De's emotions became even deeper.

Yes, he has yet to avenge Yuan Ming, and Zhao Ling's two brothers, who he also watched grow up.

But he didn't know that the person next to his pillow who had looked like Guanyin for many years and carved the word "compassion" into every word and deed actually had another face that was extremely hateful.

"Well, Zhaoming and Zhaoling do have their own ideas. Let's think of the Mingzhou incident as a training for them." Even though there was a female emperor in the previous dynasty, it is against common sense for a woman to be the emperor. For most courtiers, Not tolerated by aristocratic families.

So if you want to get the position where he sits, that unlucky thing will only have a harder time in the future.

In the backyard of Li Mansion, Sun Qingzhi was sitting alone under a tree wiping her silver gun, looking at the bright moon in the sky that was the same as Han Yu with her clear eyes.

"If you are really alive, are you looking at the same moon as me at this moment?"

Yin Hong's hairband was swaying in the wind, and Sun Qingzhi's seemingly careless words made her eyes filled with sadness again.

She admitted that she missed him after all.

Qi Hong, you'd better be alive, otherwise...

The threatening words came to my heart, but they dissipated due to reluctance.

Just as Sun Qingzhi was recalling the past, an unusual sound sounded outside the house.

Obviously, Qin Zhui and others, who were guarding the outermost circle, had already dealt with the intruder.

Similarly, two black figures appeared in front of her, one heading straight towards her guard, and the other trying to take the opportunity to rush into the house behind her.

"Well done!"

With a loud shout, Sun Qingzhi, who was feeling melancholy a second ago, instantly entered a fighting state, and at first glance she was planning to vent her anger on the person in front of her.

And the person who took this opportunity to sneak into the rear was quickly stopped by Mu Tian, ​​who was standing at the end.

For a moment, swords were clanging inside and outside the Li Mansion, which shocked all the Li family members to stand up and look outside worriedly.

"Old man, is there really nothing going on outside? You have only been in the palace for a few days, why do so many people come to our house to investigate?"

Li Cifu's old wife, Mrs. Zhang, spoke solemnly, but there was no trace of fear on her face.

She knew that her old man was upright and honest, and often had disputes with others for the sake of justice. It was not like their family had never encountered such danger before.

But justice is justice. If there is no one in the world to uphold this, then the world will really be over.

Therefore, she has always supported her husband's actions, and now she is only a little worried about the children outside.

After all, the secret guards sent by the Princess Palace of her country were not very old. Many of them were no more than her grandchildren. They were still children.

"Hai, please relax. It's not that I won't go out, it's just that the time has not come yet."

Li Cifu comforted his old wife for a few words. Seeing that the fighting outside seemed to be getting more and more intense, and new people kept coming, he finally opened the door and said:

"Dear guests, I don't know what taboo I have committed. It's just a break at home to recover from illness. Is it worth having so many of you coming to my door late at night?"

Li Cifu strode outside the door. Although he was wearing casual clothes, he still had the usual aura of someone who has been in a high position for a long time.

He was brought back overnight after falling asleep last night. Before, he had only told his family that he had entered the palace to think of something for the princess, and did not reveal that he had gone to Mingzhou.

Although he didn't know how he returned after being thousands of miles away, but now that he was back, he had to let these people take a good look at his real person.

Seeing Li Cifu standing alive in the courtyard, no matter how you look at it, it is indeed him. The spies who rushed into Li's house were also a little confused.

Because the information they received said that the other party had not gone out to see anyone for many days, and was mostly taken care of by his old wife when he was bedridden.

So they actually speculated that the other party was not in the mansion, but had gone somewhere else.

But now that everyone has appeared in person, their guesses are obviously not valid.

While Li Cifu attracted everyone's attention, a group of Dark Dragon Guards also quietly appeared outside Li's Mansion, vowing to give these intruders a huge surprise.

That night, the voice of Qiu Yu, the aunt in charge, suddenly sounded in Jingren Palace:

"Sorry, Madam, our people were made dumplings in the Li Mansion!"

Concubine Liu Xian was not resting at this time, but was twisting the Buddhist beads in her hand, praying for the salvation of an old friend who had been dead for many years.

The moment she heard Qiu Yu's words, she broke the beads in her hand, causing each sapphire to fall to the ground, and some even hit the candlestick, leaving an indelible mark.

"How many people escaped?"

Concubine Liu Xian lowered her eyes and asked in a low voice, while Qiu Yu did not dare to hide anything:

"Five people. The secret guards of Princess Protector's Mansion and the secret dragon guards took action together. The spies we sent were all spies who are good at investigating. We never expected that the other side would..."

"killed."

"Mother, what do you mean..."

Qiu Yu looked at Concubine Liu Xian with some surprise, but Concubine Liu Xian said with a solemn tone:

"There's no guarantee that they didn't release these five people intentionally to track our base. Kill them all. There's no way they can ruin the organization's major events."

"Yes." (End of chapter)
