,
The reason why Mrs. Li agreed to let Han Yuxi go out to resolve the matter was mainly out of respect for her daughter-in-law. She believed that the family would be handed over to her son and daughter-in-law sooner or later. Now it would be a good idea to let Han Yuxi go and exercise. A good thing~!
The reason why Han Yuxi took the initiative to take on this important task was mainly because she heard the group of women outside shouting, "The man from Black Heart County has lost his conscience, so he will pay with his life for my husband." She immediately thought of the events in Chang'an City in the past two days. Everyone was discussing Li Zexuan's defeat. She felt that this matter was not simple. If it was not handled properly, it would bring a lot of trouble to Li Zexuan, so she took the initiative to take up the job.
"A man from Black Heart County has lost his conscience and will pay with his life for my husband~!"
When Han Yuxi came to the door of the mansion, it was when the group of women outside were shouting loudest. Her eyes scanned the crowd for a moment, and she instantly saw who was leading the group and some of their plans. , it immediately came to mind.
In an alley opposite Li's Mansion, there stood a man in black wearing a bamboo hat. When he saw Han Yuxi coming out from behind the door, he sneered:
"Hmph~! This Li Zexuan is nothing more than that~! Such a big thing happened, but only one woman came out to deal with it~! I don't know if you are confident or incompetent~! Whatever! You are seeking death on your own! There was no hope I used this matter to kill you, but now that you despise it so much, you must be prepared to be infamous!"
At the same time, the crowd in front of Li Mansion also made a commotion when they saw Han Yuxi coming out.
"Hey~! Someone from the Li Mansion is here~!"
"Isn't this Li County man's wife~?"
"Why didn't the Li County man come out in person~?"
………………………
"Dear neighbors, please be quiet! If you have anything to do, you can sit down and talk slowly~!"
Although Han Yuxi's clear and beautiful voice could not be heard by everyone, most people still heard it. As the saying goes, don’t look at the monk’s face to see the Buddha’s face. Li Zexuan’s previous impression on everyone was very good. Many onlookers quieted down. Those who continued to shout did not get a response from everyone, so they gradually quieted down automatically. .
Seeing this, Han Yuxi said generously: "Sisters and neighbors, we must be tired and thirsty after standing here for so long. Let's not care about anything else. Let's sit down and drink some water first, and then talk about things~?"
Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect Han Yuxi to talk to them like this. Aren't lords and ladies supposed to be aloof?
Han Yuxi was not annoyed when no one responded to her, she just smiled slightly and said to Sanbao: "Sanbao, hurry up and arrange for someone to give everyone here a bowl of iced Wenwenxiang and a mat~ !”
In this era, although there are already Hu stools, there are still many people who usually kneel and sit on mats or brocade couches. There are at least more than a hundred people in front of them. The Li family has to come up with so many Hu stools in a short time. It was not realistic. After much deliberation, Han Yuxi could only ask Sanbao to get the mat.
"Yes, young lady~!"
Sanbao responded and was about to go through the door.
"Wait a minute~!"
Jiang Cuihua, who had just been caught off guard by Han Yuxi's strange move, now walked out of the crowd and blocked her.
She has rich experience in struggle and knows that whoever takes the initiative in negotiations will get the greatest benefits!
Han Yuxi waved her hand, signaling Sanbao to go into the house quickly to do some work. Then she looked at Jiang Cuihua and asked, "May I ask who this aunt is...?"
"Jiang Cuihua, a commoner woman, cannot afford to be an aunt like your lordship~!"
Jiang Cuihua pretended to be polite, and then said: "It's not your expense, Madam. These are the poor people who lost their husbands because of the battle on Sheling Mountain the day before yesterday. I came here today because I want to meet Li The county man wants justice, so my lordship and madam, you should ask the county man to come out~!"
Han Yuxi shook her head slightly and said: "I'm really sorry, my husband is not at home at the moment! Your Majesty has sent troops to conquer the Seventh Renovation Sect for the second time, and my husband is trying to find a way to destroy the Seventh Renovation Sect at the lowest cost and avenge those soldiers who died in the battle! Yu Xi is deeply saddened by the misfortune of all the sisters. If we were in a different place, I believe I would be even more miserable than you. Today we will not care about the rights and wrongs of it. We are here as guests. Please drink some water to cool off first, and then Let’s sit down and talk!”
At this moment, the maids and servants of the Li Mansion filed out of the door carrying wine bowls and futons.
Looking at the pink tenderness exuding a hint of coolness in front of me, many people's words of rejection can no longer be uttered. Even though it is still early in the morning, in this hot summer, even in the morning, it is still very hot. The ones who felt the deepest feelings were undoubtedly the women who kept shouting slogans. The weather was already hot, and they kept shouting for so long. It would be a lie to say they were not thirsty! What's more, the cold and gentle countryside in front of us makes people salivate just by looking at it. No one can resist its attraction.
"Hey, hey, don't drink~!"
Jiang Cuihua saw that most of the people were picking up their wine bowls to taste the gentle country. She couldn't help but feel anxious. As the saying goes, they are short-handed and soft-mouthed. They came here to collect debts. How could they drink from other people's houses in front of them? Where's the wine!
But no one listened to her at this time.
What the hell is this~!
Jiang Cuihua stamped her feet bitterly, and then she also picked up the wine bowl and started drinking. Well, drinking from this gentle village is really refreshing and thirst-quenching~!
"Ahem~! I've drank this water and sat down. Madam, can we talk about business now~?"
After a while, Jiang Cuihua licked her mouth and asked a little embarrassedly. She was still thinking about the gentle village she just drank! She has never drunk this kind of thing before!
Han Yuxi glanced at the crowd and saw that most of them had calmed down and were no longer as irritable as before. She breathed a sigh of relief. When she heard Jiang Cuihua's question, she smiled slightly and said, "Of course, but ………”
"But what~?"
Jiang Cuihua was overjoyed. She thought Han Yuxi was in trouble!
"But before that, sisters, please allow me to tell you about the decision my husband made earlier~!"
Han Yuxi passed Jiang Cuihua and turned her gaze to the forty or fifty women in mourning clothes in front of her. She said in a deep voice:
"The battle at Snake Spirit Mountain was far more unfavorable to the imperial army than everyone imagined. In the end, it was an unfortunate defeat, and the two hundred and fifteen heroic souls were buried here forever! My husband deeply blames himself for this, He stayed up all night! He had previously decided that our Li family would support these sacrificed soldiers, their families, and their future lives~!
Regardless of the court's pension, our Li family will give them ten guan of money every year for each soldier's family. If you are willing, you can send the heirs of the sacrificed soldiers to study in Yanhuang Academy for free in the future~! My husband originally planned to inform everyone of this decision after the imperial army completely annihilated the Seven Repairmen Sect, and to comfort your husband's spirit in heaven, but now that you have come to the door, I will inform you of this in advance~!
My husband has a clear conscience in his conduct and work. He only wants to live up to his own conscience~! "
