Chapter 1176: To Be Emperor, One Must Disown One's Six
n harvest, potatoes are stored in cellars, and corn is dried sufficiently before being stored in granaries.For safety and fire prevention, the granary was built outside the courtyard. Several guards w...The more he investigated, the angrier he became!
The Li family provided Tianwu with high-yielding food, ensuring the people had enough to eat for over a decade.
The brothers are loyal to Tianwu, whether they serve as officials abroad or fight the Japanese pirates.
It is he who has also gone through life and death, returned from overseas, bringing with him the tributes of eight nations!
Now his father is fighting bravely on the front lines, just driving the barbarians out of the border!
Even if you're going to kill the donkey after using it to grind grain, shouldn't you at least try to conceal it
That person in the palace actually set their sights on the most precious daughter of the Li family!
Had I known this beforehand, who would have cared if the barbarians reached the Yangtze River!
Who cares if the people can eat enough!
Isn't it funny to watch a joke while the whole family is abroad and has nothing to do!
Jia Yin poured her brother a glass of iced tea and watched him take a few sips before she quietly said, "I
I'm not exaggerating; there are truly reasons I can't leave Xin Du.
Having said that, she opened the door and glanced at Shui Ling, Shui Yun, and Zheng He who was guarding by the door. She gave them a gesture.
Three people immediately went up to the upper floors, those guarding the windows stayed by the windows, and those on guard duty remained at their posts, protecting the study like iron barrels.
Everyone was on edge, guessing that she must have something important to announce.
As expected, Jiayin adjusted her thoughts and whispered, "The one in the palace who pushed me to the forefront wasn't actually trying to summon rain. After much deliberation, I guessed he was using my safety to disrupt my adoptive father and my biological father's plans, forcing them to return sooner."
Everyone's faces changed color. Thinking carefully about it, that person's thoughts might really be like that.
Li Laotai was the first to respond, “Then hurry and send a message to your father and them! Let them be careful and not fall for the trap!”
Still, Li Lao'er was the most sober of them all, waving his hand to stop them.
"No, not only can we not send messages, but we must intercept the messages being sent to the border!"
Liu Zhiheng nodded, "Although Lord Hou regained control of the border, to ensure peace in the year twenty of Tianwu, this final battle is crucial."
If they hear that the county princess is in trouble, those lords will definitely turn back. Then, just let that wishful thinking be shattered!
"That man, who only thinks about leaving his name in history, truly disregards everything else. If we don't completely eradicate the barbarians, next year we might see war break out again."
Li Laotai angrily tugged at her sleeve, she couldn't care less about anything anymore.
"Nonsense, nothing is as important as Fu Niang. I don't care if others live or die! Even the Emperor doesn't care, why should we commoners worry about it!"
"Tell Lao Si and the Marquis to return as quickly as possible. Let's head south immediately and set sail! Jia Xi has spoken, there are many large islands overseas, much like our land. At that time, let the Marquis be Emperor, the Marquis understands everything!"
Everyone found it both funny and touching, Jia Yin even hugged her grandmother's arm and shook it, "Grandma still loves me the most!"
Li Laotai touched her granddaughter's hair, feeling a complex mixture of emotions in her heart.
"Who would have thought that in the end, it would turn out like this! If only we had gone further south at the beginning and settled overseas, none of these troubles would have happened."
"Grandma, you shouldn't think that way," Jia Yin persuaded the old woman, "In Xindu for these past ten years, our family has lived quite comfortably. Our brothers have become successful scholars and made many friends, which is quite fortunate, isn't it No matter where you are, there are good people and bad people!"
"Now that we've run into trouble, let's resolve it properly. Afterward, we'll leave this place and go overseas. At the very least, we won't regret or feel guilty when we look back."
The old woman sighed and hugged her granddaughter, "You child are just too kind. You always remember people's kindness, how could you not be taken advantage of"
"Grandma, rest assured, your granddaughter is not one to be bullied." Jiayin sat up straight and looked at everyone, "Completely annihilating the barbarians is my father's and my stepfather's wish, and it's what all the people of Tianwu desire. Now, I can't let this end in failure just because of me."
After ninety-nine bows, you can't miss this last shiver!
And I have a premonition that my father and my stepfather will face another tribulation, and this tribulation might be my stepfather's best chance to escape.
"For this, I've done a lot of preparation, with an 80% chance of keeping them safe and sound. So no matter what, I can't leave. Even if I did, I'd go to Jiangbei, not Quanzhou."
Li Laotai felt dizzy. As clever as she was, age had finally taken its toll on her mind.
"How did this come about Wasn't someone plotting against you How did you end up at your father and uncle's place They have tens of thousands of soldiers around them, they drove the barbarians out of the border, how could there be any danger"
Jia Yin wasn't going to keep it hidden any longer, so she said, "Grandma, my stepfather was injured by a cold arrow while he was on the battlefield. Fortunately, I had prepared some life-saving pills beforehand and had them with him all the time. Thanks to that, my stepfather managed to escape unharmed."
My stepfather and my father wanted to find the traitor in the army, but with the urgency of war, the traitor was hiding too well and we couldn't catch him.
Now, there is only one battle left. This traitor will definitely make a move again. My foster father also intends to use this opportunity to completely get rid of himself.
Li Lao Tai was so shocked that she couldn't speak for a long time.
Li Lao'er didn't want to scare his mother, so he said, "Mother, don't worry too much. At most, in another half month, everything will have a result. You just need to help us preside over the Earl's Mansion. We'll feel more at ease."
"I, an old woman, wouldn't even be afraid to see the King of Hell right now. But what about the north What will happen to the fourth son and the Marquis..."
Jia Yin immediately said, "Before it was the news from the palace sealed off from the north. Now it's our turn to seal the news from Xin Du going north!"
“I absolutely can’t let my father and stepfather be distracted. We need to win this final crucial battle, then our family can safely head south.”
"At this time, we can't help our father and stepfather, and we absolutely cannot hold them back!"
Li Lao'er and Liu Zhiheng, Jia An all nodded.
Li Lao Er got up and said, "I'll go to the Hou Mansion and tell the steward to cooperate and provide some manpower."
Liu Zhiheng also got up, "I'm going back too, tell my father, and also arrange twenty people."
As they spoke, the two left the house.
Zheng He immediately followed suit. When they reached the main gate, Li Lao Er gave Zheng He an extra instruction, “Go find Zheng Feng and tell him to sail his boat near the military camp pier. I will contact Da Yong and let him know. He will help us cover up. Once things deteriorate in Xindu, immediately send the old lady and the princess away.”
Zheng He received the order and immediately left.
Liu Ziheng sighed, "A good life, it really changed in an instant. That person who treated the county princess like a daughter before, now..."
Li Lao'er sneered, "For the sake of the so-called Jiangshan社稷, for power, he can even throw his own son out for ten years, and his daughter is also married off for political gain. What more a foster daughter without blood ties"
"Besides, he used to be fond of the county princess, mostly for the sake of showing his devotion to the marquis. Now that the marquis has become a thorn in his side, the county princess can naturally be used at will!"
Today's update is here ~~ing.Shuiling was also quick-witted and described what had just happened in a flurry of words.The third princess was also furious, "What guts these dogs have!"She gave her a quick glance and snorted, "...
