Unparalleled Concubine

   Chapter 45 Zhong Xiaoxiao

Li Xin was naturally unaware of the Ninth Princess opening a mansion in Datongfang. For such a big event as the princess opened a mansion, it would take several months from the will to the Ministry of Housing and Industry. It can only be implemented later, and even if the dust of the Princess Mansion is settled, Li Xin may not be able to know that it is the Princess Mansion of Little Nine Girls.

After Miss Jiu left, Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief. In addition to cooking for the little girl every day, she taught her how to read. According to the charcoal seller, this girl's surname was Zhong, and she came from a large family. The accident happened, and she was sent to the charcoal seller to avoid disaster, but this girl has no name until now. It is not a problem to keep calling her a charcoal girl. Li Xin pondered for a long time, and named her Zhong Xiao. Small.

   The reason for this name is because this girl is really thin and pitiful, like a little girl, so Li Xin called her Xiaoxiao.

   As for the daimyo, when her family finds it, she will give it to her family to get it.

This yard has a total of three houses, a main hall, two bedrooms, and a small kitchen. It is a good place for a family of three to live. Li Xin packed the slightly larger master bedroom and came out with a desk. , and then sat at the desk and taught this girl to write her name.

  The clock is small.

The name    is easy to remember, and there are not many strokes. The little girl is very smart. It only took half a day to learn to write her own name.

Li Xin sat next to him, watching the girl holding the not-so-sophisticated brush with a serious face, lying on the table and earnestly writing her name over and over again, nodded with satisfaction: "Girl, You practice hard here, and I'll go out."

  Xiaoxiao stopped the movement in his hand, looked up at Li Xin, and nodded.

"it is good."

She didn't talk much in the first place. After the charcoal seller left, this girl has even less words. Now, except for Li Xin who talks to her, she can reply a word, and when others talk to her, she can't say a word. .

  Li Xin stood up from his chair, stretched his body a bit, and then stepped into the yard.

   He came out because someone knocked on the door of the courtyard.

  Li Xin opened the courtyard door, and a petite girl stood at the door of the courtyard.

   This girl, Li Xin recognizes, to be precise, this girl is Li Xin, the second woman to speak to this world.

   She is the girl Ping'er from Deyilou, the servant girl beside Cui Jiuniang.

  Li Xin smiled and said, "Why is Miss Piner here?"

Ping'er gave Li Xinfu a blessing, then took out a thick envelope from her sleeve, handed it to Li Xin, and said softly, "Mr. Li, these are the things you want, and Jiuniang has sorted them out and copied them out in person these two days. Yes, let the servants bring it to you."

  Li Xin reached out and took the heavy envelope.

   The last time he saw Cui Jiuniang, he asked Jiuniang for information about the situation in the capital. He didn't expect this Jiuniang to be so fast. It only took a few days to sort out these things.

  Ping'er lowered her head and continued: "Li Gongzi, Jiuniang said, after you read these things, you can burn them. If there is anything you don't understand, you can always ask her in the proud building."

  Li Xin nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Lao Ping'er is here, please rest assured, this thing will not be passed on to the next person."

  Ping'er nodded, looked up at Li Xin, and then saluted, "In this way, Ping'er will not disturb the son, so I will go back."

  Li Xin nodded lightly and said with a smile, "Jiniang treats Li Xin with kindness. If there is any difficulty in the proud building, Miss Piner might as well come and look for it. If you can help, Li Xin is obliged."

  Pinger girl nodded and turned around.

   At this time, the maid from the proud building had mixed feelings in her heart.

   This young man, who was in ragged clothes more than half a month ago, not only has no worries about food and clothing, but also has a calm momentum in his gestures.

   This kind of momentum, Piner has only seen on Cui Jiuniang and His Royal Highness King Wei.

   It's only been half a month...

After Miss Ping'er left, Li Xin took the envelope and returned to his room, then closed the door and window and opened the thick envelope.

It's not that he is too careful, but the seventh prince said that at this time he should be protected by someone from the Tianmujian. Although this protection is limited to protecting his personal safety, he will not overly monitor his every move. But precautions are still needed.

  Juniang's envelope contained a stack of thick white paper. The paper was full of beautifully written small letters, and the handwriting was beautiful. It should have been written by Cui Jiuniang herself.

  Li Xin probably counted it, there were nearly twenty pages of paper.

   The above words together, I am afraid there are nearly 10,000 words, and all of them were copied with a brush. It took only two or three days to get them out. This speed is quite amazing.

   Li Xin took a deep breath and began to carefully examine what was written on the white paper.

   The situation in the capital is briefly introduced.

   Now is the seventeenth year of Chengde in the Great Jin Dynasty, and it will soon be the eighteenth year of Chengde, which means that the emperor of Chengde has been in power for eighteen years, and will soon be the nineteenth year.

  The emperor of Chengde was a very effective monarch. In eighteen years, he had the entire capital in his hands. People and things in the capital were generally operated according to the will of the emperor of Chengde.

   In other words, the most important thing in this struggle for succession is not the struggle for power, but how to "capture" the Sacred Heart.

After briefly introducing the situation of the emperor of Chengde, the following pages are all about the more important forces in the capital. Apart from the other three princes, there are only a few important ministers left. Among them, the most important minister in the Chengde dynasty, It was Li Xin's cheap dad, the Marquis of Pingnan, Li Shen.

The Marquis of Pingnan, Li Shen, although still a marquis, grew up with the emperor of Chengde since he was a child. When he became an adult, he inherited the Marquis of Pingnan, and also inherited the 100,000 military power of the Marquis of Pingnan in southern Xinjiang. If there was a rebellion against the party, it was also Li Shen who worked tirelessly to suppress them in southern Xinjiang.

  The emperor of Chengde was able to enjoy peace in the capital, and the Marquis of Pingnan should take a large part of the credit.

More importantly, the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Pingnanhou Mansion in the southern border were the direct lineage of the elite soldiers who defeated Nanshu in those days. No one would dare to make a difference.

The most commendable thing is that the Marquis of Pingnan, from the first Marquis of Pingnan, Li Zhijie, to the Marquis of Pingnan, Li Shen, has been holding the sword for the country for more than half a year. For more than 30 years, the royal family of the Ji family has been able to trust Pingnan. The Hou Li family did not take back their military power, so it could be regarded as a match between the monarch and his ministers.

  Li Xin read the information about the Pingnan Houfu in detail twice, and his heart was somewhat heavy.

   He only now knew why he "attacked" Pingnan Hou's mansion twice, but Pingnan's mansion remained unmoved, and why the seventh prince would take him so seriously when he first arrived in the capital.

   This Pingnan Marquis Mansion looks like an ordinary waiter, but in fact it holds one of the most important powers of the Great Jin.

   A towering tree suddenly appeared in front of Li Xin. The huge shadow of the tree buried Li Xin in it.
