With his hands behind his back, he ate a melon, and the country's fortune soared.

Finally, the Queen was so fed up with Erdan's nagging that she had to ask the secret guards to send this guy to Li's Mansion.

Everyone in the Li residence was really scared when they saw the big white wolf, but they felt relieved when they saw the big white wolf being squashed and flattened in the little princess's hands.

That day, Qianqian and Dahua were both exhausted and went to bed early after dinner.

Erdan grinned and nestled in the nest that Luqiao had made for him. From time to time, he would get up and walk gently to Qianqian and Dahua's bed.

He looked at the two little kids with a smile, then wagged his tail and went back to his nest to sleep peacefully.

In the study of the Li family, Li Rui was beaten once by Li Yu and Madam Li in turn, and then beaten twice by the two of them together.

Finally, he covered his buttocks and begged for mercy. His crying was heartbreaking...

Jingxinyuan, outside of Beijing.

Duke Yan was so angry that he smashed all the tea sets in the room. "What a bullshit Jingxin Courtyard. This is my Deer Park. Damn Xiao Chengxi, a bastard born of a mother but not raised by her. For a mere Xiao Xue, he has lost all his dignity? He is not afraid of retribution for bullying me like this. He is disobedient and unfilial. He..."

"Duke," the old butler was sent to Duke Yan by Xiao Xuecai. He was also an old man who had worked in the palace before. If he didn't have to take care of this fool, he would not be willing to come to this damn Deer Garden, no, Jingxin Courtyard.

The old butler did not enter the hall, but only reminded outside the door, "My Lord, be careful with your words. His Majesty has many secret guards under his command now. Aren't you afraid?"

"Bah," Duke Yan was now without anyone to rely on, and was constrained in every way. He could not do anything he wanted, and he had been holding back his anger for a long time. "Xiao Chengxi, that gigolo, is a useless thing. He is just a prostitute."

"My Lord Duke," the old butler really couldn't persuade him any more. He stamped his feet and was too lazy to persuade him anymore. After all, His Majesty and the old lady were not confused, so they couldn't blame him.

"Alas," he stamped his feet fiercely, "I will go get you some food."

He made an excuse and left in a hurry.

Duke Yan was even angrier. "You bunch of old bastards, the old eunuch should have been killed long ago. You are useless and only know how to flatter. The eunuchs should all die. They all deserve to die."

boom.

Duke Yan suddenly felt a pain in the back of his head, closed his eyes and fell onto a piece of broken porcelain.

Then five dark shadows landed silently beside the Duke of Yan. They looked at each other and rushed towards the unconscious Duke of Yan at the same time, punching and kicking him.

The two secret guards standing not far away...

"Looking at their figures, they are all little girls, right?"

As he spoke, Lin Wu took a bite of the pig head in his hand.

Lin Liu also took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, nodding, "I just followed him all the way from Prince Lian's Mansion."

The two of them looked at each other and understood. They ate the pig head with the sound of punching the meat, which was also delicious.

The fight was finally over. Five dark shadows flew out of Jingxin Courtyard and climbed over the eaves and walls to enter Prince Lian's Mansion.

It was already dark at this time, and there were only a few lanterns in the corridor of Prince Lian's mansion.

"Huh," Xiao Shanshan took off her scarf and let out a long breath, "The old man, the Duke of Yan, has such brittle bones that he can't stand a beating."

"That's right," Xiao Sisi also pulled off her scarf, "and her arm was broken before she could kick twice."

"Ah," Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Sisi, "Fourth sister, did you break that old Deng's arm with your kick? I think," the girl tilted her head uncertainly, "broke his calf?"

"Well," Xiao Lu and Xiao Qi shook their hands at the same time, and smiled at each other, "Sisters, you must bring us along next time there is such an event."

Wow.

Before Xiao Shanshan and the others could reply, the originally pitch-dark Prince Lian's Mansion suddenly became bright. The five maids were so frightened that they huddled together and timidly looked at their grandfather who was sitting in the middle of the courtyard.

"Grandfather," Xiao Sisi was frightened by the dark expression on Prince Lian's face, "You, you haven't slept yet?"

"Haha," Prince Lian stood up and put his hands behind his back, "Yeah, I didn't sleep. I was admiring the moon."

"Grandfather, don't be angry," Xiao Shanshan pushed Xiao Lu and Xiao Qi apart, "We are going to Jingxinyuan to avenge our second sister. The old man Deng, the Duke of Yan, is really a bad guy."

"Hmph," King Lian snorted coldly, turning his back to his granddaughter, "You guys are so nice that you didn't even take me with you when you went out to seek revenge. Alas, the child has grown up and doesn't even want to play with grandfather."

The five flowers of the Xiao family...

They looked at each other and immediately ran towards their grandfather like black butterflies.

"Grandfather, next time, next time, let's go beat up that Mo Laodeng again."

"That's right, who stipulated that revenge can only be taken once?"

"No, let him break his hands and feet this time, and when he recovers, let him break them again."

"Yeah, that's a good idea,"

……

There was a lot of noise in the front yard. Xiao Xiao, who had not yet gone to bed, asked softly, "Have you gone to see it? Are they all back?"

"Second Miss," Xiao Xiao's personal female guard tiptoed into the bedroom, "Don't worry, the five ladies are back safely. We followed them all the way, and nothing happened."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "You have worked hard, go to bed early."

The female guard waited for Xiao Xiao to lie on the bed, "Why is it so hard? It's a pity that we can't deal with that old thing ourselves."

Xiao Niang smiled and said, "Go and take a rest."

"Yes."

In Jingxin Courtyard, looking at the Duke of Yan who was beaten unconscious with bruises on his face, the old housekeeper sighed deeply and had to go and call a doctor overnight.

On the second day, when the Duke of Yan was lying on his bed cursing the heavens and the earth, the Duke of Yan's Mansion received an imperial edict.

Mo Shiyin was recognized for donating half of her family fortune during last year's snowstorm, and for her outstanding contributions to the relief home, the nursing home and the Spark Girls' College.

He was specially conferred the title of Prince of Hui County, with Huizhou as his fief, and a fiefdom of three thousand households.

This imperial edict shocked the court and the public. Some officials were dissatisfied, but Prince Hui's achievements were obvious to everyone.

What's more, Emperor Mingde and the Empress have secretly extended their claws to several century-old families, so they dare not provoke them for the time being.

Many court officials held their breath, waiting for an opportunity to criticize the queen.

However, more declining aristocratic families discovered that their families might have ushered in a brand new opportunity.

At this time, at the Shen family, Shen Nanshan was taken away by Zhu Jia himself early in the morning.

The elders of the Shen family went together to find the second branch of the family, Shen Shan, and even Shen Zhongyue was called back.

In recent years, the second wife has been suppressed too harshly by the first wife, and Shen Shan directly exposed the various crimes committed by the first wife.

Just the charge of lending money at high interest rates was enough to make Shen Nanshan be caned 100 times.

There is nothing wrong with being caned, but what about the Shen family’s century-old reputation?

The future of my sons and nephews, the marriages of my daughters, the reputation of the Shen family members in various parts of Daxia...

After discussion, Shen Nanshan's branch was completely abandoned, and Shen Shan successfully became the patriarch of the Shen family.

The first thing he did after becoming the patriarch of the Shen family was to ask the girls in his family to take part in the women's imperial examination next year.

This incident naturally caused an uproar in the Shen family.

Qian Qian didn’t know about other people’s troubles. She only knew that Li Rui’s troubles had just begun.

After breakfast early in the morning, Qianqian and Dahua were invited by Mrs. Li to go visit Li Rui, who was beaten so badly that he could not get out of bed.

Li Rui, lying on the bed with a dead look on his face...

He closed his eyes tightly, pretending not to hear his mother's ridicule.
