Chapter 17 Turning the tide

Chapter 17: The situation reverses ()

Li Yi brought the whole family and the young and old to the door to pick him up, feeling nervous.

Princess Yun Caier of Yiyang is the third daughter of Prince Li Yun Pingyang. She was smart since childhood and loved by the old empress dowager. She was named Princess Yongping. However, Prince Li fell into a battle for the throne and made a big mistake. She was demoted to the King of Luzhou. Yun Caier was also demoted to the Princess of Yiyang, expelled from the capital, and came to Yiyang.

After Yun Caier came to Yiyang, she lived in seclusion and did not participate in Yiyang's affairs. Even if the officials asked for a meeting, she would not see her. But how could she come to the Li family and congratulate her in person?

Unlike Li Yi who was full of suspicion, Li Zhensheng and other six elders of the Li clan were extremely embarrassed. Previously, the Li clan was threatened by a huge force and had no choice but to sacrifice the Li family, but now the Li family has formed a relationship with the Princess Yiyang. If the Li family defected to Princess Yiyang and received the protection of Princess Yiyang, who else would you be afraid of in Yiyang?

Yiyang is nominally Yun Caier's fiefdom, and one-third of the annual taxes belong to her private ownership. She is the actual master of Yiyang. According to the law, Lord Zhou is just the housekeeper of Yiyang. Although Yun Caier has been in Yiyang for more than a year and has lived in seclusion and has never interfered in Yiyang's government affairs, if she asks about it, even Lord Zhou will have to obey orders on the surface. Now the owner of Yiyang, Princess Yiyang, comes to congratulate him, and everyone is shocked.

The arrogant Lei Bantou was so arrogant that he couldn't help but feel upset when he saw a small concubine in the Li family's wedding. He saw that Princess Yiyang actually congratulated him personally. This person was also a gangster leader, who had been hanging with the yamen in the market for many years, and his eyesight was very vicious. When he saw this scene, he immediately winked with the six yamen runners he brought, and he was about to sneak away in the chaos.

But they had just slipped a few steps before four men in black were caught by one of the men in black, holding one of them in one hand, holding the neck and capturing it. One of the men in black looked like ice and said coldly: "In front of the princess, do you still want to make trouble? If you dare to move, you will be killed first."

The four men in black had a strong hand and were extremely powerful. The seven people including Lei Ban were very conscious and looked at the face again. Knowing that this was the princess's guard, his face suddenly looked like earth. Not to mention that he dared not move around, he didn't even dare to look around his eyes.

At this time, the main gate of the Li family opened wide. Yun Caier got off the princess's ceremonial guard and walked into the gate. Li Yi led the family and the young and hurriedly knelt down to greet him. Before they could kneel down, Yun Caier stepped forward to support Mrs. Duan, called for a mercy, exchanged a few words of affectionate greetings, and then smiled at Li Chong: "Shisanlang, did you ever think of my identity today when you saw me that day?"

Li Chong originally thought that Cai Yun, who was a friend, must have a good background, and maybe he was the eldest lady of a first-class noble family in Yiyang, so he sent someone to invite her to the wedding a few days ago. He thought that she was a daughter of a daughter after all, and might not come to congratulate her in person, but unexpectedly, her true identity was Yun Caier, the princess of Yiyang. She also valued him very much, so she actually came to congratulate her in person.

Li Chong sighed in his heart about the magic of fate, showed an incredible expression, and smiled bitterly: "I seem to be dreaming about all kinds of encounters today!"

Yun Caier walked forward and smiled mischievously: "I feel like I'm dreaming now? There will be a good show later! Don't faint with joy, miss the good show!"

Li Chong smiled and said, "I will not miss the happy things."

The two of them walked towards the hall while joking.

Yun Caier didn't even look at the six elders of the Li clan.

Li Shisan is the illegitimate son of the Li family, and his mother is also a blind maid. However, Yun Caier not only crossed Li Yi, Mrs. Duan, and the elders of the Li clan even didn't even look at him. He just cared about talking to Li Shisan, showing that he valued Li Shisan very much. The six elders of the Li clan were really ashamed, jealous and regretful at this moment.

When we arrived at the hall, Yun Caier sat in the most noble position, and everyone else was going to sit down.

Li Chong shouted, "Let's go. These old men and you guests, didn't you say you were here to attend my Thirteenth Old Wedding? You can leave now."

Li Yi was already cold at this moment. He knew that these people would not help when encountering difficulties in the future. At this moment, he was very angry and felt relieved. He also said coldly: "Since the Li clan no longer tolerate my Li family, then you will no longer have any relationship with me in the future. Everyone who is going to watch me lively, get out of the Li mansion quickly!"

Li Chong originally thought that his father Li Yi would have the idea of ​​being foolish and loyal to the world's etiquette and law education, and might have used the power of the princess to return to the Li clan. It can be seen that his decision was even more straightforward than him, and he was amazed in his heart.

Li Zhensheng's old face turned red and he bowed to Yun Caier, "Princess, I, Li clan, have some misunderstandings today. I will not accompany the princess, and I will come to the door to apologize again." After that, I was about to leave.

Yun Caier waved her hand and said, "Since you are here, don't leave. I like the fun." Li Zhensheng and the six elders of the Li clan had to stay helplessly, feeling very embarrassed.

As for Li Yi’s five life-and-death friends, he was even more restless.

At this time, several black-clothed guards, carrying Lei Bantou and others, threw them into the hall. A black-clothed leader reported: "Report to the princess, these seven yamen runners are suspicious, and they may be unfavorable to the princess. Should they be punished by their subordinates?"

Lei Ban wailed, and at this moment he didn't care about anything else, so he could only fight to the death, kneel down and kowtow desperately, and whined: "Princess, please spare me, we have been ordered by the government office to interrogate the suspect Thirteenth Young Master. We didn't sneak into Li's mansion. Please give it a clarification!"

Yun Caier looked beautiful and said with great interest: "Have you got up and talk. Do you think Li Shisan is a suspect? What case did he commit?"

When Lei Ban heard this, his heart suddenly changed, thinking that the princess wanted to recognize the true face of Li Shisan? If I told the princess to expose the ugly face of this boy, maybe the princess would make the decision for me. He hurriedly shouted: "Eight days ago, someone saw him assassinating Fan Zongya of the government office at night. It was because of this that the villain came to interrogate him."

Yun Caier originally smiled, but after hearing what he said, her face suddenly changed and she sneered: "Eight days ago? Humph, it's really nonsense. Eight days ago, Li Shisan was visiting our mansion. Eight days ago, Eunuch Fang saw that he was very skilled in chess and played chess with him all night. How could he become a suspect in killing Fan Zongya?"

A white-haired father-in-law next to him whispered: "The Thirteenth Master's chess skills are really good. Haha, we admire them very much. The Thirteenth Master, when you have time, I still want to ask for advice!"

Li Chong hurriedly bowed: "You are polite, it's a boy's honor to be invited by your father-in-law." This eunuch Fang looked kind, but Li Chong felt a powerful seal on his body. He must be a powerful seal. The princess clearly helped him, and his words were extremely close. At this moment, he was very grateful. Although she had only met her a few times and she had helped him like this, she must have made some plans, but he sincerely thanked him and swore that he would repay the princess's great favor in the future.

Lei Bantou was stunned on the spot, wishing he could get into the cracks in the ground. The dignified princess supported Li Shisan. Not to mention that there were just false evidence, even if there were real evidence of physical evidence, there would be a cloud in front of the princess.

Yun Caier's pretty face suddenly turned cold, and a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes. "On the day Li Shisan is happy, you can't see the banquet here, but you are specially selected to come here to make trouble on such a day. Did you know that this princess is coming to the banquet today? Therefore, she came to deliberately play with this princess!"

When Lei Bantou heard this, he knelt down like five thunderstorms, "Princess, please spare me, my wife, I don't know that you are coming. If I know, even if I have ten thousand courages, I wouldn't dare to come!" After saying that, he kowtowed repeatedly and begged for mercy.

Yun Caier said coldly: "I live in Yiyang and don't want to participate in Yiyang's affairs. I finally attended the banquet for the first time, and you were plotted against me. You won't let me have a good time!"

Lei Bantou knew that you were referring to all the officials behind him, and he felt regretful. He just listened to the order from his superiors and came to take revenge on Li Yi. Unexpectedly, Princess Yiyang was the master of Yiyang in name, but he did not have real power. If he wanted to seize the real power of Yiyang, he had to clean up the officialdom of Yiyang. The princess endured for more than a year, but suddenly appeared publicly at this moment. This must have a deep meaning. He was a small man who was involved in this major event. He burst into tears of regret.

Yun Caier was even more upset and said angrily: "On the happy day, you dare to cry. Heiwei, drag him out and beat him to death with sticks."

After hearing this, Lei Bantu fainted in fear.

At this moment, Li Yi and his family felt so happy, especially the servants of the Li family. They have heard of the changes that have happened in the Li family over the past few days. Just now, the Li family fired the Li family again, and the groom was in the lawsuit. They thought the Li family would be destroyed this time, but the situation took a sharp turn, and the Princess Yiyang came to support him. The servants were all happy, with straight waists and radiant faces.

Li Chong stood up and said, "Princess, today is my happy day, and I can't do anything that hurts people's lives."

Yun Caier smiled slightly, "Okay, listen to you, beat them out, don't delay the happy events." She looked very beautiful. Although she was only fifteen years old and a little tender, she smiled sweetly and her beauty still made everyone stunned.

After this trouble, it was already noon and the wedding was not held immediately, and the best time was to miss the wedding. The emcee hurriedly ordered the wedding ceremony to be held quickly.
