Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 953 Three years later

After Li Xin returned to Yongzhou, he lived in Yongzhou with peace of mind. It was just that the current imperial master was in poor health and contracted typhoid fever. Faceless.

However, the princess of the Li family has become a famous celebrity in Qiyang County in the past few years. Because the imperial court has allocated 2,000 mu of land to the Li family in Qiyang County, the Li family has become one of the few big names in Qiyang County. One of the landlords, but the Li family is different from the other landlords, and does not live on tenancy.

The rent of other landlords is generally 50%, harsher or even 70%. Even if you meet a kinder landlord, you will have to charge two or three times of rent. However, because Li's house does not live on the land at all, the rent is only symbolic. The income is less than 10%, and even the princess of the Li family does not want any rent, and divides the land to some poor people to plant. Two thousand mu of land is enough for thousands of farmers to survive, so she has nothing to do to take care of the Li family's property. The eldest princess, her reputation is getting better and better in the Qiyang area, and many people even built a shrine for her to worship her every day.

   In the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and the time has come to August of the fourth year of Yuanzhao. During these three years, the eldest princess gave birth to another daughter to Li Xin, named Li Jing, who is now over a year old.

This morning, Li Xin was still practicing boxing in his own yard as usual. He was in his early thirties at this time, but after practicing boxing at home for more than ten years, his mental strength was as good as that of his youth. Don't bother, it looks almost the same as it did three years ago.

   After finishing the set of fists, Zhong Xiaoxiao, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately brought hot water to Li Xin and waited on Li Xin to wash.

  Li Xin glanced at his sister while washing his face, and said in a sullen voice, "I don't see you being so diligent on weekdays, and only come to me to sell it when I have something to do."

  Zhong Xiaoxiao smiled a little embarrassedly.

   "Isn't there someone else serving my brother on weekdays..."

   After wiping his face, Li Xin threw the towel aside and muttered, "Did someone write you a letter?"

  Zhong Xiaoxiao lowered her head, her face turning a little red.

   She came to find Li Xin, of course, for no reason. Zhao Fang, a young man who was brought to Zhenbei Army by Li Xin back then, has now taken leave of absence from his boss and is about to come to Yongzhou.

When Zhao Fang first arrived in the Zhenbei Army, Li Xin prepared for him more than a hundred young people caught in the den of thieves, as his family in the Zhenbei Army, so he was the captain as soon as he entered the Zhenbei Army. Although he is a captain of the Boys Army.

   That year was the eighth year of Taikang, and now it has been the fourth year of Yuanzhao. More than five years have passed. Zhao Fang, who joined the army at the age of fourteen, is now nineteen and twenty.

   And Li Xin's eldest sister, Zhong Xiaoxiao, is almost twenty years old, at the age of marriage.

   Now, Zhao Fang has served as the captain of the Zhenbei Army, and will soon return to Yongzhou to come to the Li family to propose marriage.

  Li Xin looked at Zhong Xiaoxiao like this, and knew that Zhao Fang must have written to her in advance, and immediately shook his head helplessly: "No wonder people say that girls are outgoing, and they can't keep them when they are older."

  Zhong Xiaoxiao pulled Li Xin's sleeve and said shyly, "Brother, don't make fun of me. I'm twenty years old this year, and my sister in the seventh grade is not a few years older than me. Her son is about to go to school."

Chu Qi is Chen Shiliu's younger sister. She got married a few years ago, but because Chen Shiliu is doing something special now, Li Xin invited Chu Qi and her husband to Jing'an Hou's mansion to work. The whole family lives in Qiyang.

   In this era, most of them get married early and have children early. Girls get married and have children at the age of thirteen or fourteen. Li Xin has always been very opposed to this thing, so he did not consider marrying her until he was twenty years old.

   But the social concept is here, Xiaoxiao also wants to get married, Li Xin sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I will talk to him in detail when the boy comes back."

  The Marquis of Jing'an snorted: "If you want to marry my sister, at least you have to buy a house in Yonglefang in the capital, and at least you have to buy a house in Mingdefang Liushufang."

This is just a joke, not to mention that the house in Yonglefang is expensive and has no market, even the house in Mingdefang or Liushufang is a sky-high price. Zhao Fang is still a poor boy, and it is impossible to afford it. .

   After so many years, Zhong Xiaoxiao also knew her brother's character. She made a face at Li Xin and ran away with the water Li Xin had washed his face with.

   "I'm going to help my sister-in-law take care of Jing'er."

After Zhong Xiaoxiao, Li Xin exercised his muscles and bones, and went to eat in the princess' room, because there are not many real family members in the Li family, and there is no such a big table. Sometimes, the husband and wife are in the room for dinner. It's just a simple meal.

   During the meal time, the eldest princess and Li Xin talked a lot about the little marriage, what dowry should be prepared at home, where to do things, and so on.

After saying this, she glanced at Li Xin and asked, "I've been wanting to ask you something for a long time, why are Madam Hui and her sons and daughters gone? Qiyang County she went to with me, I I haven't seen her in half a year."

  Li Xin picked up his rice bowl and took a mouthful of porridge.

   "Hui Niang went to live at Sixteen's place. Their husband and wife haven't seen each other for several years. You can't help but let them meet, right?"

   In fact, Madam Hui did not go to Chen Shiliu, of course, but was hidden by Li Xin.

In the past few years, the court's pursuit of Tianlei has reached the point of unscrupulousness. After Lin Hu, who made Tianlei, was discovered by the court, Chen Shiliu, who replaced Lin Hu, was also discovered by the court. Since then, all of Chen Shiliu's The family members were targeted by the imperial court.

   Chen Shiliu's wife, Lady Hui Niang, and his two children were in danger several times. Someone wanted to kidnap them to threaten Chen Shiliu. Therefore, Li Xincai had to find a place to hide them.

   So that Chen Shiliu's sister, Chu Qi, and her husband and children were taken to Qiyang by Li Xin to ensure their safety.

The eldest princess frowned slightly: "Sixteen doesn't know where he was sent by you. I haven't seen him for several years."

  Li Xin didn't say much, just said silently: "Sixteen should be able to come back in a few days."

   Princess Long looked at Li Xin and sighed slowly.

   "You, you are in Qiyang, and your heart has long gone, and you don't know what you are doing every day, and you never tell me."

   Of course I can't tell you.

   Li Xinxin sighed, put the empty bowl on the table, and said with a smile, "Madam, go and serve another bowl for my husband."

  The eldest princess took the empty bowl naturally and threw it to the maid beside her.

  The couple sat together and hadn't finished their meal, when Jing'er, who was just over a year old, began to cry, and the eldest princess immediately put down the dishes and went to take care of the child.

   After Li Xin finished eating, he returned to his study. In the study, Shen Gang, dressed in blue, had been waiting for a while.

  Li Xin sat on the main seat and frowned: "What is it, let you come over to deliver the letter in person?"

When Shen just followed Li Xin, he was already in his thirties, and now he is in his forties and almost fifty, and his hair has turned a lot of gray. He took a deep breath and bowed his head to Li Xin: "Master Hou. , there is news from the capital."

  Shen Gang paused and said.

   "Chen Guogong...is critically ill."
