Li Qingyi's eyes sparkled, "I wonder if you have heard a sentence."
"Which sentence..."
"Offense is the best defense."
Changning was stunned by Li Qingyi's words.
Where did a little lady who grew up in a boudoir get the courage to enter the wolf's den alone and attempt to destroy it by herself?
Li Qingyi said with a smile: "Some things cannot be avoided by being a turtle. You have to show your sharp teeth and bite them painfully, so that they can learn the lesson and know that some people are not easy to mess with!"
In front of the Xuandehou Mansion, carriages carried boxes of things down one by one, and then the boys moved them one by one into the mansion for placement.
The girls and ladies looked at the list and carefully checked it out one by one before they were allowed to enter. Fortunately, the place in the house was large enough and the staff were all people who had worked in the Li family for more than ten years, so it was most appropriate.
Everyone was under the command of Manager Sun, and even though there were many people involved, they were still managed in an orderly manner.
Everyone gathered at the gate of the Hou Mansion to watch the excitement, and they all clicked their tongues. Some even said, "If the eldest son of the Li family was still alive, what would the Xuande Hou Mansion be like now!"
"Yes, I heard that the eldest son of the Li family is so talented that even the emperor praised him. It's a pity that God is jealous of talents..."
When Manager Sun heard the discussion, his expression remained unchanged, but he kept urging, deliberately raising his voice, "Stay calm, the eldest girl has so much dowry, and we will need to transport more things later, so we will be busy for a while. Don’t make any mistakes in haste.”
"dowry?"
There was an uproar among the spectators.
"So these things are all Miss Li's dowry? Just Miss Li's dowry??"
The speaker was somewhat incoherent.
Someone on the side also asked: "Didn't you hear that Miss Li is engaged?"
"It doesn't matter whether we are going to get married or not. Since the Li family has returned to the capital, we naturally have to choose a good marriage for Miss Li in the capital!"
"That's true! It's just that Miss Li's dowry is too amazing. How many confident people must be able to afford it?"
"Hey, I don't know if you have heard that Miss Li's appearance is very similar to that of her father. She must be a fairy-like person. It is impossible to marry someone with just money, but she can win the favor of this beauty. It must also be an extremely noble status!”
"When it comes to dignity, who else can be more noble than the royal family? We have several adult princes in Dajing. I heard that the palace has already thought of choosing concubines for several princes? I wonder if this Miss Li will Will she become a princess?"
"Isn't this possible? After all, the Xuandehou Mansion has failed. If you want to marry into the royal family, your status is still low."
While they were discussing, a carriage came from a distance, and the young men of the Li family quickly moved out of their seats, "Quickly! Make way, the eldest girl is coming!"
As soon as this was said, everyone onlookers stretched their necks.
Li Qingyi helped Chang Ning's men get out of the carriage. Seeing many people gathered in front of the house, he nodded to everyone in a good-tempered manner.
Everyone's breath froze.
Although her face is covered with a veil, her eyes are breathtaking.
It wasn't until Li Qingyi walked into the mansion that everyone's breathing gradually became smoother.
After a while, a crazy scholar murmured, "Huh? Just now, which fairy came down to earth?"
The others burst into laughter upon hearing this.
This time Li Qingyi entered the house and asked, "Uncle Sun, why don't you have a few things belonging to your second uncle and second aunt?"
Manager Sun smiled and said: "Everything that the second master and second wife need is available here. If you don't have it, just buy it again. There is really no need to transport it all the way from Yangzhou. I just bring some of the things I have handy. Come with the boat from behind, but many of the girl’s dowry are old items from the house, and even if you want to buy them again, there’s nowhere to buy them, right?”
"That's true." Li Qingyi smiled, "Maybe the second uncle and second aunt will arrive tomorrow?"
"The day after tomorrow, the second master will go to visit Master Chongxu."
Li Qingyi smiled and said: "I have already guessed it! Master Chongxu is over a hundred years old, but he is only greedy for the sip of wine brewed by his second uncle. He cannot achieve enlightenment and ascend. Most likely it is his second uncle who caused him!"
Manager Sun couldn't help but laugh, but he still advised: "Zhenren Chongxu is a person respected by the current emperor, girl, don't joke."
Li Qingyi was rarely so happy, "Yes, yes, I know!"
The Xuandehou Mansion has moved back to the capital. As the eldest daughter, Li Qingyi will definitely come back, and the Wei family has no reason to stop it.
What they are now thinking about is how to keep Li Qingyi in the Wei family to deepen their bond so that she can be used by the Wei family in the future.
As the link that bound Li Qingyi and the Wei family together, Princess Yuanheng had to brace herself to deal with her husband's reminder.
"The love between mother and daughter is natural. She will not refuse your closeness. You still need to pay more attention to this daughter to prevent her from feeling uneasy staying in the Wei family."
Princess Yuanheng pursed her lips.
Wei Shicheng frowned slightly when he saw the awkward look in her eyebrows, "Blood is thicker than water..."
"Master, there's no need to say it, I know."
While telling her that blood is thicker than water, while forcing her to betray her daughter, she cannot be as shameless as the Wei family.
She couldn't get close to Li Qingyi. This awkwardness probably came from her inner condemnation.
But she had no way to resist the Wei family's proposal, because her current situation did not allow her to refuse.
Between herself and her daughter, she chose herself after all.
"Queen Qianqiu, there is a banquet in the palace. You bring Qingyi into the palace. I plan to ask the queen to make her the county head."
Princess Yuanheng was startled, "How can this be done? Jin'er has been waiting for a long time. If the position of county lord is given to Li Qingyi, she might not be willing."
"It's just a name, she will be indispensable in the future."
Princess Yuanheng knew that he had made up his mind and said no more.
After leaving Wei Shicheng's study, the maid came over and reported: "Princess, Nanny Qin came in with a message, saying that her injury has healed and she can work in the mansion as an errand."
Princess Yuanheng frowned and said after a while: "Qing Yi is quite unhappy with her, so she should not hang around Qing Yi's eyes if she has nothing to do."
The girl was startled, "Yes, Princess."
Nanny Qin was happy to receive the letter that she could return home, when she heard the little girl add, "Mommy, Miss Li, the princess asked you to show your face less, so as not to offend her."
Nanny Qin's cheek twitched hard.
"The princess...the princess said that?"
The little girl nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the princess said it herself."
Nanny Qin's face was ashen, "What happened in the house these days?"
"Just over there from the second room..."
"I'm asking Miss Li!"
The little girl was so frightened that she trembled: "No... Nothing happened to Miss Li. She is very good in everything in the house and gets along well with several girls... I wonder what grandma wants to ask?"
Nanny Qin frowned, "It's nothing, let's go!"
The little girl quickly ran away as if she had received an amnesty.
Grandma Qin sucked her teeth uncomfortably, revealing a row of neat teeth. This was a denture that she spent all her money on and spent all her money on. Although it was a little uncomfortable, she still felt it. It’s better than leaving it alone!
She straightened her clothes and planned to go into the mansion to see Princess Yuanheng, but she never thought that a carriage suddenly stopped beside her.
Nanny Qin subconsciously raised her head and saw Li Qingyi staring at her coldly, "Isn't this Nanny Qin? Is the injury on her face healed?"
