Li Hong, wearing linen filial attire, gave Li Jun a sideways look and said, "What are you doing, why don't you hurry up and bring the carriage, the yamen will be opened in a short time, so it's possible that you want the adults to wait after you file a complaint? "

Li Jun hurriedly turned around to pat the door and call for a carriage, but Li Wen hurriedly stopped him, "Nephew, wait, there is something you can't talk about slowly, why bother to sue the yamen? What's more, we are still relatives of a family, and there is something embarrassing about it. It should be discussed with us first."

  Li Jun ignored him, pushed him away and knocked on the door.

   Li Wen was sweating profusely, and he hurriedly winked at the servants and stopped Li Jun together.

   Li Xie's face sank slightly upon seeing this. It seemed that Li Hong and his son were quite determined to sue the imperial court.

With a look of embarrassment on his face, he pulled Li Hong and sighed: "Your third uncle told me about your nephew's request, then you should also know our embarrassment, it's not that we don't want you to return to the clan, It's because there are many clansmen with different opinions, and you can't always take care of you and don't care about other clansmen, so this matter has to be taken slowly."

Li Xie said softly: "But don't worry, the uncle is here to give you a guarantee, the shortest is three months, and the long is half a year, I will definitely give you an explanation. Before that, you should go back with me first, when your house was raided. There is a large mansion in the property, and your third uncle bought it back with money. I let him live in your name, and you move in first and settle down. The clan will allocate a few villages to you, and they will all be recorded in your name. I heard that Brother Jun wants to do business in medicinal materials, and he needs a lot of principal. On behalf of the clan, I will give you 80,000 taels first, and then I will send you a steward to assist you. I think it will take him a few months. Business is picking up..."

  Li Hong's eyelids trembled. This condition was very generous, and he almost agreed.

But thinking of Li Baolu's exhortations and threats, he gritted his teeth and said with a livid face: "Uncle, don't coax me, first whether what you said is true or not, I don't care if it is true, I don't want a house, and I don't want Zhuangzi, I don't want money, I only want our family, and I can't let my father die and carry the crime."

   Li Xie said irritably: "I didn't say that you would not be allowed to return to the clan, but everyone's opinions were not unified for a while. After a while, I persuaded them to welcome you to the clan naturally."

"You stop coaxing me, this is only for three-year-old children to believe. You are just trying to delay time. When you arrive in Shunde, it's up to you to decide what is right and what is wrong?" Li Hong said, "Anyway. I don't have time to wait any longer, or you should promise to let us return to the clan in front of everyone, write down the documents, and ask the guarantor to sign and sign it, or I will file a complaint and let the saint come up ruling."

  Li Hong raised his eyes and looked at Li Xie, and said with a wicked smile: "Anyway, the uncle said that you can't be the master of this matter. Since you can't be the master, then let someone who can be the master come."

Li Xie looked at Li Hong, and slowly let go of his hand, the smile on his face completely fell, "Li Hong, the court can't control the affairs of the clan, you must know that the clan has clan rules, if you are a clan. The Guizu also has to listen to the words of the clan.”

"The clan has clan rules, but the country also has national laws," Li Hong said firmly: "You sentenced my father to leave the clan because my father did something wrong in the palace, but the previous emperors said that my father was wronged. Yes, then your reason for judging my father out of the clan is not valid. Either you find another reason to sentence my father out of the clan, or you have to welcome my father back. I'm already unfilial enough, and I can't let my father still bear the burden after his death. There is no peace for such a crime.”

  Li Xie's face completely sank, and he looked at him with some gloomy eyes: "Do you know the consequences of this accusation?"

   Li Hong sneered and said, "How bad can it be worse than it is now, worse than exile in Qiongzhou, worse than being charged with being a clan?"

   A cold light flashed in Li Xie's eyes, and he couldn't help clenching his fists, "You don't care about Brother Jun's future, and sister He and their marriage?"

   "They are still young, their future will come from their efforts, but their grandfather has been buried in the ground, and only my son can fight for him." Li Hong lowered his eyes and said.

   "Then you don't care about your niece? She married into an official's family, and it involved a lot. She is a child bride and has weaker confidence than others. You still caused her such trouble..."

Finally came, Li Hong breathed a sigh of relief, but his face became more and more upright, "Uncle, don't worry, Baolu knows about this, and she agreed to it. If you think about your ancestors, my niece can be a little bit. Not less than me. When she was young, her grandparents and parents treated her very well." Li Hong looked at Li Xie with a half-smile and said, "Don't hide it from my uncle, if this matter hadn't been approved by my good niece, I would have I didn't make up my mind to do that."

   No matter how calm Li Xie was, he couldn't help but lose his color.

  Li Baolu's weight is different from Li Hong.

   Li Hong is just a commoner, but Li Baolu is Gu Jingyun's wife. If she instructed this matter, how sure would they have sued the imperial court?

   It's a pity that the Li family has been unable to speak in the palace since Li Bo. Although there are still people from the Li family in the hospital, they can't be ranked, let alone fight against Gu Jingyun, who has won the emperor's heart.

  Li Xie and Li Sheng and Li Zhuo looked at each other, and their hearts kept sinking.

  Li Zhuo stepped forward and grabbed Li Xie, frowned and said, "Brother, I'm afraid it's useless to find Li Hong for this matter, and we have to find someone from the Gu residence."

  Li Xie said with a headache: "First persuade Li Hong to go back, I will go to Lingsheng Street to see her immediately."

  In order to show his firm attitude, Li Hong naturally couldn't agree to go back. He had been entangled with them for a long time, and finally found that he couldn't break out of the encirclement.

   But Li Hong put down his harsh words, "You can stop me for a while, can you stop me for a lifetime? This is in the capital, not in Shunde."

  The three Li Xie brothers' hearts sank to the low end, and the three dared not ignore it any longer. Leaving Li Zhuo to continue to persuade, Li Xie took Li Sheng up to Lingsheng Street.

   Li Hong sneered, and in front of Li Zhuo instructed Li Jun, "Go to Lingsheng Street to meet your cousin, report today's affairs to her, and don't let her be deceived without knowing it."

   When Li Zhuo was about to stop him, Li Hong sneered and said, "This is still the capital. Uncle Six really thought we had to come back because we couldn't resist? If we really fought, would you be able to stop it?"

  Li Zhuo paused, hesitant on his face.

  Li Jun said: "We are not embarrassing you, and please don't embarrass us."

  Li Zhuo silently stepped aside, and the servants who were blocking the way also wisely let Li Jun go out.

   When Li Jun arrived at Gu Mansion, Li Xie and Li Sheng, who had left more than a quarter of an hour earlier than him, were still at the gate, and when they saw Li Jun, their calm faces couldn't help turning blue.

  Especially when he saw that he went in without notice, his face became even darker.

  Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu are both at home. Today is the big court meeting, but there is no major event in the court, Gu Jingyun will not go to the court, and the academy is resting, so he accompanies Baolu to play the piano and practice swords in the garden.

   Naturally, he played the piano and Baolu practiced the sword.

  Li Xie and the others were still playing when they came, so they didn't see them immediately. When Li Jun also came, Li Baolu went back to the room and changed clothes to see him.

   "Second sister, my father and I were stopped by the Shunde Li family before we left the alley. Now both the eldest grandfather and the third grandfather have come to look for you."

  Li Baolu nodded slightly and waved: "I see, you haven't had breakfast in the early morning, so go to the kitchen and get something to eat first."

   "Let me stay too," Li Jun thought for a while and said, "After all, I'm the only male in the family, so I should have done this."

  Li Baolu thought about it and nodded.

  Gu Jingyun nodded slightly to Nanfeng, "Go and invite the guests in."

   "Brother Jingyun, don't worry about this, let me do it." Li Baolu knew that Gu Jingyun was an "outsider", and he didn't want to interfere too much with the Li family's affairs. If the matter has already been reported, he speaks out to help relatives, but if he intervenes too much in private settlements, he will inevitably be criticized.

   Before, it was nothing to do it secretly, but now Li Xie and others came to the door, but it was on the bright side.

  Although she is a married daughter, she is still a member of the Li family. Her parents have only one child, so it makes sense to meddle in the Li family.

   "I'm right behind, call me if you have something." Gu Jingyun touched her head and smiled, "Don't take some rules too seriously."

   "I know that I won't suffer at home."

   Gu Jingyun got up and went to the back.

  Li Baolu sat in the first place and waited, Li Jun stood beside her like a guard.

  Li Baolu didn't let him sit down, and when he heard footsteps, he raised his head and looked towards the door.

   Li Xie and Li Sheng were both seeing this grandniece for the first time, and they were slightly startled when they saw her beautiful face.

   Neither Li Hong nor Li Jun looked like Li Bo, but they didn't expect that they would find the shadow of the past in the most unlikely person.

  Li Baolu looked at them coldly, stood up with a smile on the corner of her mouth and said: "The distinguished guests are here, Peng Yishenghui, presumably the two are the patriarch Li and the third grand master Li, I have long admired their names."

   The faces of the two froze, and they said with a smile: "Why is the grandniece so polite, you are the granddaughter of the fifth brother, and you are the same as our granddaughter. You can call us the first grandfather and the third grandfather."

  Li Baolu smiled, turned her head to the red peach and said, "Bring some tea to the distinguished guests, and then go get some snacks."

After giving the order, he turned back and asked the two to sit down, and said with a smile: "In terms of blood relationship, Baolu should really be called the first grandfather and the third grandfather, but our family has already been out of the family, even if I have this heart, it is not justified. Shun, it's better to be more polite."

  Heart brought up the tea, put it down respectfully to the two of them, bowed and stepped back, Li Baolu smiled and said, "It's not a good tea. Patriarch Li and Mrs. Li San have a taste. How does it compare to the Li family's collection?"

Li Xie and Li Sheng were on their backs, no matter how tough Li Hong was, they had to call Li Xie and Li Sheng the uncle and third uncle. Before they didn't think there was anything, but now that Li Baolu didn't call, they felt the benefits of this name. .

  Li Baolu has a businesslike indifference, and they can't play the family card in their hands.
