The practical course at the forest farm lasted about half a month. When it ended, it was almost the Flower Festival.

With this half-month of continuous practice, both Erhong and Qiuxiang have almost fully mastered their proficiency in several small daily spells. They can almost use it by raising their hands, and they can use it well. At the beginning

Three or two spells could drain the mana out of their bodies. Now they can easily use four or five in one breath. After using it, even if their spiritual power is exhausted, they no longer look like they are about to collapse from exhaustion.

, the recovery time is also greatly shortened.

On the morning of the last practical class, while Erhong was practicing in the small spirit gathering array she had arranged, she suddenly made a breakthrough and advanced to the second level of Qi Refining. Although Qiuxiang had not reached the breakthrough yet, she had a good foundation.

Promotion is only a matter of time.

Both maids were very happy with their progress. After going up the mountain, Erhong asked Li Lijun: "Can I help the little lady now?"

Li Lijun smiled and nodded: "Yes. Aren't you already helping me? Look at the tree stumps you have cleared now. It took only half a day to clear a large tree stump. Thanks to you, I saved a lot of effort.

"

Er Hong looked at the cleanly cleaned tree stumps on Si Tai Mountain, and couldn't help showing a bright smile on her face. She turned around and looked in the direction of Santai: "The slave will work harder next and remove the tree stumps on the Santai side.

The tree stumps have also been cleaned up!"

Li Lijun nodded: "You and Qiuxiang can handle the matter over there, and I won't go with you. Do you have any problems?"

"No problem!" Erhong is very confident in himself. What problems can there be on his own territory? The foot of the mountain is their own territory, and there are no idle people waiting to go up the mountain after the door is closed. The former monster has long been taken care of by the little lady.

After getting rid of it, she still has the protective charm given by the young lady, and she has Qiuxiang as a tacit companion. The two of them have learned the dagger technique for a while and carry weapons with them, so they will not be helpless when encountering foreign enemies.

Although Lu Siyun and Aunt Zhao who followed him could not be of much help, they were in good health and could run very fast when encountering difficulties.

She has been taught by the little lady step by step for so long. There is no reason why she can't do anything without the little lady. The little lady still has to practice herself, so she can't always spend time on them. If they are now connected to their own forest farm

If you don’t dare to dig tree stumps, how can you help the young lady in the future?

Li Lijun felt relieved when she saw that Erhong and Qiuxiang were both calm. Anyway, she had left a small paper crane on Sitai Peak and a drone high in the sky. Even if something happened, she would be able to get the news as soon as possible.

.She can leave with peace of mind.

But before leaving, she privately told Er Hong: "After noon, if you think it's almost time, you can let Aunt Zhao go home to visit relatives, but she must come back to meet you before sunset. I will arrange for Zhihe to keep an eye on her."

, to see if she will leak the secret. If she makes no mistake, then after today, I can admit her at any time as long as she wants."

Qiuxiang's eyes lit up as she listened, and she was secretly happy for her little sisters.

Erhong nodded: "I understand. Aunt Zhao has been taken by Qiuxiang for so long, and she has learned everything she needs to learn, so she will not be stupid."

Li Lijun smiled, glanced in the direction of Lu Siyun and Aunt Zhao, then turned and left.

After handing the two newcomers to Erhong and Qiuxiang, she quickly rushed back to Bieye. She had just received the news from Aunt Cui through the paper crane, and had originally sent her back to Chang'an City to help the two nuns, King Song, build the

The kang craftsman came back. Also came back at the same time, Nanny Song. She brought letters from her grandfather, King Sui, and her grandmother, Princess Dou.

Aunt Cui and Aunt Lu warmly greeted Aunt Song, invited her to tea and snacks, asked her about the news in Beijing, and talked about the young ladies’ experiences during the New Year. They seemed to be just having a normal family life, but because they were too

She was too enthusiastic, so it took a little longer. But because the fourth lady, Li Lijun, came out to see Grandma Song soon wearing neat home clothes, so the latter didn't think much about it and didn't expect her at all.

In fact, I just came back from the mountains a few miles away.

Li Lijun sat down cross-legged in the main hall and said hello to Aunt Song and her relatives at home. Aunt Song answered them one by one and then said: "The princess had an occasional illness after the year, but she has recovered now. Please don't worry, Fourth Lady."

Worrying. However, Dalang fell ill again after spring and kept coughing, and everyone in the house was worried about it. Aunt Yang took care of him at the hospital bed day and night, working hard day and night, and she also fell ill. "

Li Lijun raised her eyebrows: "Aunt Yang? The sixteenth mother of the Yang family has come in?"

"I came in after the first lunar month." Nanny Song replied with a smile, "The King Si was quite happy at first, but later he felt that Aunt Yang had put too much focus on Dalang, and she complained in front of others."

Li Lijun twitched her lips: "Isn't it because Aunt Yang got in because she cared enough about my brother that people thought she was virtuous? Isn't it a good thing that she didn't forget her original intention after she got in?"

Aunt Song smiled and did not continue the topic. Instead, she said: "Sanniang Zi and Si Lang are also ill. Aunt Yang is ill and has no time to take care of them. The princess wants to send her confidants to take care of them, but their wet nurse is worried.

After crying to the king, the king sent two concubines over. One of the concubines was a maid in the east courtyard, and she might not get along with the third lady. The old slave said hello to the fourth lady first, you

Just be aware of it."

Oh... Princess Dou knew that the concubine was the eyes and ears planted by the two nuns Cui and Lu in the backyard of the successor king Li Dai, and was afraid that she would fall into the hands of the insidious and vicious third wife Li Yanjun, so she specially reminded her, right?

It's okay, Cui and Lu, the two nuns, have someone in the Sui Palace. As long as the concubine doesn't commit suicide, they will not watch this person being plotted and suffer a big loss.

The worst case scenario is to pretend to be sick and get away. Didn’t the new Aunt Yang set a good example?

After talking about the current situation of the people in the Sui Palace, Nanny Song mentioned the generous gift that the Sui King gave to the noble concubine in the palace years ago. Probably the Sui King really spent enough money this time, and the gift was very suitable for the noble concubine, so

This year's court meeting, King Sui not only participated as the leader of the clan, but was also summoned by the saint to speak for two quarters of an hour at the palace banquet after the meeting. The relationship between the two brothers was no longer as close as before, but the saint was willing

Chatting with the little brother about everyday things, and even joking about the marriage of his two legitimate sons, it was already showing that he was not treated as an outsider.

King Sui was very happy and thankful afterwards, and took Princess Dou to talk to her all night long.

Princess Dou was also summoned by the noble concubine, and her treatment in the palace was the same as that of other princesses, which was better than the treatment in previous years. Some other princesses joked and mentioned that the door to the main street of the Sui Prince's Mansion had not been opened for several years. Is it because of work?

Didn't the Ministry repair the door? The imperial concubine also said that she would speak to the sage and order officials from the Ministry of Works to go and repair it so that it would not be inconvenient for the Sui King's family to come in and out.

The imperial concubine also mentioned Li Lijun, who was observing filial piety. She wanted to see this little girl who was rumored to be very pitiful. Others said that Li Lijun had a heavy filial piety and it was inconvenient to enter the palace. The imperial concubine only said: "What is taboo about my own child?"

"

Therefore, although the imperial concubine did not mention a specific date, since she said such words, the Sui King had to prepare that his granddaughter might receive a summons at any time.

Princess Dou specially sent Aunt Song to make this trip for this purpose. She knew that Li Lijun was in good health now and had no illness or disaster. She should go back to the Sui Palace to stay for a while after the spring. In case the imperial concubine got interested someday,
Chapter completed!
