MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 681 [Fan] No colorful phoenix with double flying wings (23)

After Li Ling completely defeated the powerful enemy of Gaoshan Kingdom, Pei Yunqian took the initiative to ask Ying to garrison in Yuzhou.

At this time, Gaoshan State had been renamed Yuzhou, and Li Ling re-divided the territory. Because Yuzhou borders Yizhou, most of its prefectures and counties are within Yizhou.

Yizhou is Pingyang’s hometown and the place where the two grew up. From an emotional point of view, Pingyang’s feelings for Yizhou are naturally stronger than those for the capital.

 So Pei Yunqian decided to return to the south for the sake of Pingyang.

Pei Yunqian was extremely talented, so Li Ling couldn't be more relieved to have him stationed in this newly conquered territory, so Li Ling agreed to his request not long after Pei Yunqian submitted his memorial.

They have been in Beijing for several years, and now they are leaving suddenly. There are a lot of things that need to be prepared, and there are also a lot of people coming and going.

At this moment, Pingyang heard a lot about the prince and his wife from the female relatives who came to see him off.

The most explosive news was that during the Dragon Boat Festival, the family went on a cruise. Due to an unexpected incident, the pregnant Mrs. Xu and her concubine Jiao Xing fell into the water at the same time. The prince, Li Xiang, actually died. Wife, go save the concubine.

It was exactly the same as in my previous life, except that the victim was replaced by a different woman.

And Xu, who seems to have a good temper, is much more powerful than Pingyang.

Although Mrs. Xu saved her life and her belly was intact, after what she experienced, she may have completely given up on Li Xiang. She actually went to the court and asked the emperor to punish Li Xiang severely in the name of Li Xiang doting on his concubine and killing his wife. And asked for reconciliation.

 As soon as this news came out, it really exploded in the circle of ladies in Beijing.

"It's really infuriating that the prince dotes on his wife and kills his concubines so much. But Mrs. Xu is also a little irrational. If she reconciles now, what way out will she have? Besides, he still has a son. If there is a quarrel with the prince, Come on, it will be his son's turn to take this title in the future."

 A noble lady who came and went to practice for Pingyang sighed, and she couldn't help but sigh for Mrs. Xu.

Another noble lady who knew the inside story replied: "Then Xu is from a high family, how can she be stupid? After I heard what happened, she did not intend to have a life-and-death dispute with the eldest son of the Li family, but the aunt because of Falling into the water caused the baby to be born prematurely, and the baby girl died within two days of birth. The eldest son of the Li family insisted that his wife had done something secretly, and the couple completely fell out."

A lady gritted her teeth and said, "The eldest son of the Li family is so confused. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to make it easy for that concubine and the evil obstacles she gave birth to."

"Who says otherwise? After hearing that the child died, the concubine was too sick to get up. Seeing that his sweetheart was like this, the eldest son of the Li family first threatened to divorce his wife, so the Xu family went to the saint to sue."

"The heir apparent of the Li family is the saint's favorite younger brother. What can we do if we bring this matter to the imperial court? In the end, I think it will be the Xu family who suffers."

“Oh! When a woman marries the wrong person, it’s a disaster. In the end, it’s not all the women who suffer.”

 The government, which has always enjoyed a reputation of being clean and honest, was in an uproar because of this family scandal.

 In the end, Li Xiang finally reconciled with his wife Xu.

 I heard that when the Xu family was negotiating with the government, Mrs. Xu proposed that she would not want any property, including her dowry, and only wanted her children, but the government refused.

How could a powerful family like Gongfu allow his own flesh and blood to wander outside?

 In the end, the government gave Xu a large sum of money, but she could not take away any of the children she had given birth to.

After Xu and Li Xiang reconciled and separated, the Xu family still protected their daughter. Knowing that she had no future in the capital, they sent her to live in her hometown in Jinan. However, Xu committed suicide by drowning on the way back to her hometown.

Some people say she is stupid. Perhaps only women who have given birth to children can understand that once a woman has a child, how many can endure the pain of separation.

 After more than a month of busy work, Pingyang and Cousin Pei finally got everything done.

The two of them brought a pair of children and were escorted out of the capital by guards. As soon as they reached the city gate, they saw a hearse being transported out of the city alone. Beside the hearse, there was only a man in plain clothes escorting them.

It is Li Xiang. And the person in the coffin must be Jiao Xing.

A few days ago, Pingyang heard that there was another commotion in the palace that had finally calmed down. Li Xiang's concubine passed away, and as the crown prince, Li Xiang actually wanted to bury the concubine in a wife's ceremony. This move was criticized by Li Xiang. The family strongly opposed it.

Because of this, the old lady of the palace was so angry that she vomited blood. The eldest princess even slapped her son in front of all the relatives. Even the children born to the Xu family threatened to sever ties with Li Xiang.

Pingyang glanced at Li Xiang's dejected back escorting the hearse and sighed secretly.

In this life, he still failed to stay with his sweetheart forever.

Moreover, he also ended up being alienated from his relatives.

 Pingyang and Cousin Pei took the children back to the south, and Pei Hou's Mansion was located in Yizhou, not far from Prince Yong's Mansion.

 The lives of the two are still happy and sweet. Later, their naughty daughter was betrothed by the eldest son of Zhao Xuan and Xie, and became the much-loved wife of the prince, while their outstanding son was cultivated by cousin Pei and became a master at a young age. Already on his own.

When Cousin Pei saw that his son had established a mission, he reported to the court to transfer the defense of Yuzhou to him in advance. After getting the emperor's approval, in order to express his gratitude to the saint, cousin Pei took Pingyang back to the capital to meet the saint. .

At this time, they have entered old age. The emperor has always admired Pei Yunqian's personality and talents, and specially held a palace banquet for the couple in the palace.

At the palace banquet, everyone was drinking and mingling. The servant came in and reported to Li Ling, saying that the Duke of the Zhenguo Mansion had run away from home.

The Duke of this government is Li Xiang.

The queen heard this and ordered people to find it.

The emperor waved his hand to stop the queen, and only said: "With him gone, Brother Yu can inherit the title. This can be regarded as his last explanation to the Xu family who died back then."

Pingyang and cousin Pei have been in Yizhou. Over the years, she has gradually forgotten about the personnel in Beijing.

 It wasn’t until she heard the emperor and empress talking about Li Xiang at the palace banquet that she remembered it again.

The high-ranking young man who couldn't carry it, the noble lady who found a dagger because she married into an unkind woman, and the short-lived concubine.

Later, Pingyang learned from a noble lady in the capital that Li Xiang's children had always hated him since Xu's death, especially Xu's son Yu Geer. As Li Xiang's only son, he had After the tragic death of his biological mother, he had always refused to inherit the title of the Duke. Even after he achieved fame and settled down, he actually wanted to move out of the Duke's Palace and start his own business. The father and son were incompatible, and Li Xiang finally tried to calm his son's anger. Angry, he left home silently.

Since the death of Mrs. Xu and Jiao Xing, Li Xiang has never remarried. At this time, the elder brothers in the palace, such as the old lady, the old Duke, the eldest princess, and even the eldest brother Li Xian and his wife, have all passed away. Their children are the only ones around Li Xiang. His relatives all refused to forgive him because of what happened back then.

This family, for Li Xiang, has no warmth at all.

 That’s why he left in desolation.

 As for where he went, no one knows

Since then, Pingyang has never heard any news about Li Xiang.

 The extra story about Pingyang and Cousin Pei has been finished.

 Writing about Li Kun and Dong Qing tomorrow.

 Speaking of which, Dong Qing finally put aside her dignity and went all the way to look for Li Kun. But when she arrived in Yuzhou, she actually found out that her husband had another woman.

 The story between them is also very interesting. Everyone is welcome to read it!
