MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-Chapter 98 cause and effect
Chapter 98 Cause and Effect
Cui Jiuniang was very efficient in her work. The next morning, she personally came to the door to find Li Xin.
"Master Li, this is a yard that I asked people to ask about. It's only one inch deep, but it's still quite big. There are seven or eight rooms, and the yard is much bigger than yours now."
Cui Jiuniang smiled: "The place in Datongfang is not very good, but thinking that Mr. Li will be an errand in the princess' mansion in the future, I still found a place in Datongfang. This yard is very close to the princess' mansion, only separated by a road. It's just the street."
Li Xin was not polite, reached out to take the house deed, and said, "Since my younger brother came to Beijing, I have been in much trouble for Sister Cui."
"No trouble no trouble."
Jiuniang smiled lightly: "My concubine is a humble person, and there are not many things I can do. Fortunately, these chores are within my ability. It is a blessing for my concubine to be able to do something for the prince and Li Gongzi."
Having said this, she smiled and said, "Besides, Mr. Li calls the concubine a big sister, and it is right for the concubine to do something for Mr. Li."
Li Xin put the house deed in his sleeve, and then bowed to Jiuniang: "Sister Cui, the princess will move into the princess' mansion these few days, and I will also move here. I have many things to do, so I will live first when I am young. Please take care of Sister Cui while you are there."
Speaking of Zhong Xiaoxiao, Jiu Niang smiled calmly: "This girl is very obedient, she has learned a hundred or two big characters these days, you can let her live with me, after all, I am a woman and take care of her better than you. It's convenient."
Jiuniang is twenty-six years old this year. She should be a mother at this age, but for various reasons, she has never been able to give birth to a child. Now that she has a small child, she regards this girl as her own. Daughter keeps.
After saying this, Cui Jiuniang said, "You're going to move, you won't be able to do it alone, do you want me to find some helpers for you?"
Li Xin smiled casually: "I don't need to worry about my sister. My younger brother is now working in Yulinwei, and there are many people under his command. In addition, when there is nothing at home to move, let them come and help."
The shopkeeper of the proud building smiled and said, "I almost forgot, Young Master Li is already an official."
After a few words of greetings, Cui Jiuniang left Datongfang. After all, such a big business in Datong Building, someone needs to watch it at any time.
And Li Xin simply tidied up and set off for the Qinghe Princess Mansion. He is now the head guard of the Qinghe Princess Mansion. Although the Ninth Princess has not moved in yet, the necessary defense work should also be arranged.

Here Li Xin was busy working everywhere, but the Pingnanhou mansion over there was silent. After Pingnanhou Li Shen returned to Beijing, he only met His Majesty once at the great court meeting, and he never appeared in public again.
As for Li Chun, the young marquis of Pingnan Houfu, his leg was broken and he was bedridden.
In the study room of the Marquis of Pingnan, Li Shen, Marquis of Pingnan, dressed in casual clothes, sat on his throne, and focused on the letter in his hand.
In front of him, stood a young man.
After reading the letter in his hand, Li Shen raised his head to look at the young man in front of him, and said indifferently: "The people over there are lost, what's the matter with Guan Benhou?"
This young man is Zhong Ming, the young man who followed Li Shen back to Beijing. He is a native of Bashu and has been with Li Shen for some time.
His main task is to connect the two sides.
Li Xin guessed right. There is indeed a certain degree of tacit understanding between the Pingnanhou Mansion and those Nanshu survivors, not only a tacit understanding, but even a certain degree of alliance.
When Li Zhijie invaded the capital of Nanshu and destroyed Nanshu, the Li family of Nanshu was indeed at odds with the Pingnanhou mansion, and he often raised troops to cause troubles, which made the old marquis Li Zhijie have to station troops in the southern border all the year round.
However, Li Zhijie, who was known for his bravery in fighting at that time, was not able to clean up the remnants of Nanshu in the more than ten years of being stationed in southern Xinjiang, or not only did not clean up, but also allowed more remnants of Nanshu to survive.
At that time, there was no alliance between the Pingnan Marquis Mansion and the Southern Border. It was the old marquis Li Zhijie who deliberately let these Nanshu survivors continue to exist, so as to maintain the status and interests of the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.
Until Pingnan Houfu changed to a new Houye.
The new Marquis of Pingnan, Li Shen, began to cleanse the remnants of Nanshu on a large scale after he took control of the southern border. It didn't take long before he captured the core of the remnants of Nanshu, King Min, and sent him to the capital to be cut in half.
This is a huge credit, and the remnants of Nanshu almost perished because of this. Because of this credit, Li Shengen, the Marquis of Pingnan, was promoted to the general of Zhuguo.
No one knew that at that time Li Shen got on the line with the survivors of Nanshu, and that His Royal Highness King Min of Nanshu was the sincerity of Nanshu to Pingnanhou Mansion!
Of course, at that time, this King Min was already seriously ill, and even if he didn't get caught, he wouldn't be able to live for long.
After this incident, the two Li families began to enter a state of interdependence, and there was a lot of news exchanges between them. This Zhong Ming, who was next to Li Shen, was the person in charge of communication between Nan Shu and Li Shen.
Zhong Ming lowered his head and said, "Master Hou, the little county lord is probably in the capital, but we don't have the slightest influence in the capital. I hope the lord Hou can help and send the little county lord out of the capital."
Li Shen squinted his eyes: "Your little county master, you are staying well in the southern border, what are you doing in the capital when you have nothing to do?"
Zhong Ming lowered his head and said solemnly: "Your Highness died in the capital at the beginning of the year. The little county master was in grief and heard some news at home. It is estimated that he came to the capital to avenge His Highness..."
"Vengeance?"
Li Shenda frowned: "How did Li Fu die, Li Xing knows better than anyone else! Li Fu died in the hands of Yu Linwei, does your little princess still want to seek revenge for Yu Linwei? Why did one die? The younger brother is not counted, and there is another younger sister?"
King Min of Nanshu had two sons, the eldest son Li Xing and the youngest Li Fu.
Li Fu is the little His Highness who died in Li Xin's hands.
At the beginning of the year, Nanshu began to plan to go to Beijing to assassinate the emperor of Chengde, and forced Li Fu into the assassination team. Originally, the assassination of the emperor was a matter of life and death. The assassination plan was notified to Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan!
This is to make it clear that Li Fu, who is known as both civil and military, will be killed.
It was because Li Shen knew about this in advance that he sent someone to inform Li Chun of the follow-up.
Zhong Ming lowered his head and said, "Master Hou, we received news from there that a young man named Li Xin killed His Highness, so the little princess ran out secretly, presumably going to Beijing to find that Li Xin to seek revenge. …”
"Li Xin?"
The face of the current Zhuguo general became solemn.
He slowly got up and walked towards his backyard.
