Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Loving Mother Has Many Defeated Children
In the backyard of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, Mrs. Yu was sitting on the edge of her son's bed, feeding him bone broth.
The Li family has been practicing martial arts from generation to generation since the first generation of the marquis Li Zhijie, and Li Shen is naturally no exception, the last time he attacked his son, he showed no mercy and broke his leg.
For this kind of injury, you have to lie in bed for at least half a month, and if you don't recover well, you will be disabled in the future.
Being able to give such a heavy hand to his own son shows that this Pingnanhou is really angry, if Li Chun is not his son, he may have been killed by him at this time.
Mrs. Jade had stewed the bone broth all afternoon, the soup was snow-white, and she held the soup bowl in her hand. Prepare to feed your own son with your own hands.
Li Chun stretched out his hand to take the teacup and said in a low voice: "Mother, the child can come by himself." ”
His legs were broken, but both hands were still fine.
Madam Yu sighed softly and said softly: "The burden on your father's shoulders is very heavy, you have to be considerate and considerate of him, although he beat you with his hands, but he doesn't want to." ”
After Li Chun took a sip of the soup, he smiled reluctantly: "Mother, it's a bad child, you shouldn't make your father angry." ”
"If only you could understand."
Mrs. Yu lowered her eyebrows and said: "Your father wants to train you well, so that he can hand over the burden of the Hou Mansion to you in the future. ”
Li Chun put down the soup bowl in his hand and looked at Mrs. Yu deeply.
He hesitated, but finally spoke.
"Mother, do you think that father is so angry because we did something to that wild seed?"
I can't help Li Chun not think so.
Before this incident, Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, basically did not get angry with his family, but this time when he returned to Beijing, he couldn't help but be angry, Li Chun thought carefully about what he had done recently, and after thinking about it, what really made his father angry was probably the wild seed that was killed.
As for befriending the prince, the fourth prince Ji Huan has excellent connections in the court, and he is also responsible for the extremely powerful position of the secretary of the military department.
For the situation in the court, Li Chun's views are not the same as his father Li Shen, in the eyes of this little marquis, if the four princes do not support any of the Li family, they will offend four people in the end, if one of them is bet, maybe it will ease the relationship between the Li family and the court.
Even if the bet is wrong, it is just to maintain the status quo, with the Pingnan army in southern Xinjiang, the imperial court will not and dare not attack the Li family easily.
Mrs. Yu's face changed slightly, covered her son's mouth, and said in a low voice, "What nonsense? ”
The Pingnan Hou Mansion is an extremely large interest group, and there are 100,000 Pingnan troops as the family background, and there is such a family background, although it is impossible to dominate the world, but the rich and noble extremely human ministers can't run away.
Originally, Li Chun was the only heir to this family background.
However, a Li Xin ran out of the back inexplicably.
According to reason, with the family background of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, it is very easy to add a pair of chopsticks, and there is no need to make things come to this point, it is because of the Li family's family business that Mrs. Yu was so sensitive and insisted on driving Li Xin out of the capital.
After all, the position of the Pingnan Hou Mansion is embarrassing, and the heir must have enough ability to take care of this family business, so the heir will not choose the eldest heir, but the meritorious, if there is a second heir candidate, Li Chun's position as the heir will become unstable.
Mrs. Yu drove Li Xin out of the Hou Mansion, and later tried to find a way to drive him out of the capital, Li Chun, the little Hou Ye, personally did it to Li Xin several times, all for this reason.
Madame Yu's face was solemn.
"Chun'er, you have to remember that your father has been working hard for so many years, all for this Li family, for us, you have to be considerate of him......"
Before she could finish her sentence, the door was kicked open.
Walking in was Li Shen, the general of the Zhu State with an indifferent face.
The Marquis of Pingnan walked to Li Chun's bedside and looked at his son quietly.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Mrs. Yu hurriedly stood up, squeezed out a smile and said, "Master Hou, what's wrong?" ”
Li Chun also reluctantly sat up, calling his father.
Li Shen's face was pale, and he didn't pay attention to Mrs. Yu, but looked at Li Chun who was lying on the bed.
"Have you communicated with Southern Xinjiang?"
Li Chun's face turned pale, and he said in a low voice: "Father, I'm ...... No. ”
"You don't?"
Li Shen sneered again and again: "Southern Xinjiang has already sent people into Beijing to kill Li Xin, if you don't give them news, how do they know that it was not Yu Linwei who killed that Li Fu, but Li Xin?" ”
Li Chun gritted his teeth: "Father, the son really doesn't know about this matter, and it may be that one or two of those Southern Xinjiang assassins escaped from the capital." ”
The little marquis stubbornly said, "If you are because of that...... That Li Xin is going to anger his son, his son has nothing to say, as long as you are happy, your son will go and kowtow to Li Xin now to admit his mistake! ”
was broken "for no reason", Li Chun was naturally a little unhappy in his heart, at this time he thought that his father was angry with him because of Li Xin, and his heart was even more uncomfortable, and the father and son quarreled like this.
Li Shen's face turned blue with anger, and he slammed his fist on the table in the room.
"You know!"
"How sensitive is the identity of the Li clan in Southern Xinjiang, every time I communicate with them, it is through an entourage with me, but what about you?"
Pingnanhou Li Shen sneered: "You can only use your mother's family surnamed Zheng, these people can be found out by a check, do you think our Li family has not been caught enough handles?" ”
Although the Li family has its own foundation and is not very afraid of ordinary storms, but despite this, Li Shen is a cautious person and is still unwilling to give people a handle, especially this kind of handle to contact "anti-thieves".
If this matter is confirmed, the Li family will be labeled as a rebel.
Li Chun's face turned pale.
As Li Shen said, the only people around him who can be trusted are the Zheng family who came with Mrs. Yu, and the other Pingnan Hou Mansion are all soldiers who have retired from the battlefield, and they generally don't listen to him directly.
Even if those subordinates were willing to listen to him, they would inform Madam Yu in advance.
Mrs. Yu's face was also a little unpleasant, she smiled reluctantly: "Master Hou, this matter may not have been done by Chun'er, turn around and ask those family members, Chun'er still has injuries on his body, can you wronged him again......"
Li Shen glanced at Li Chun with a sneer.
"I'll check it for you, even if he did it, it won't be."
The general of the Pillar Kingdom had a cold face: "It's because you've been spoiled too much over the years that he's not so successful, it's better to be ......."
Here he wanted to say that he was not as good as Li Xin, who grew up in the mountains, but Li Shen still didn't say anything when the words came to his lips.
That illegitimate child can only be an illegitimate child in this life.
Li Shen took a deep breath.
"From today onwards, all the people surnamed Zheng in the Hou Mansion will return to the Zheng family, and as for who sent the letter to Southern Xinjiang, Ben Hou will go to investigate."
"After finding out......"
Li Shen glanced at Li Chun coldly.
"After I find out, I'll break your other leg again, and cut off both legs of the messenger!"
