Mrs. Jiang fainted. The doctor said she was overly worried. She didn't wake up until the sunset.

Jiang, who had just woken up, opened her eyes and saw Li Xinran who was standing by and listening to Yingge's reply. The sunset shone on her body, adding a touch of golden and red brilliance to her brocade clothes.

Jiang was in a daze. She couldn't help but think of the time when Gongsun was ill. At that time, she went to see him, and only Jinlian and Yintang were standing by. Li Shuo sent someone to reply, saying that the master was looking for him and he couldn't escape in the school, but later , Nanny Su told her that at that time Li Shuo was drinking with his classmates in a restaurant, and there was no wife at all.

However, Mrs. Jiang thought of what Mr. Zhu had said before, that Li Shuo was the only male who broke pots and carried flags, and made incense in the Li family...

"Mom is awake?" Li Xinran's voice rang in her ears. Jiang came to her senses in a panic and found that Li Xinran was still sitting where she was, with neither sadness nor joy on her face, and a pair of deep and deep eyes.

Ms. Jiang responded in a low voice, not knowing what she was thinking.

Li Xinran sighed softly: "Mother, the doctor said that you are too worried. In fact, you don't need to pay too much attention to what grandma said. Confucius said, if you can't serve people, how can you serve ghosts? If you don't know life, how can you know death. Some things are still too much Just worry about living things."

Before Jiang could speak, Li Xinran stood up and said, "Mother, Grandma Su has gone to prepare medicine for you. My daughter has something else to do. Since you are awake, my daughter has left."

Before Jiang could answer, Li Xinran turned and left.

"Miss..." Yingge looked worriedly at Li Xinran, who was walking faster than usual.

Li Xinran didn't reply. When she got to her own yard, she seemed to have lost all strength and sat slumped on the ground.

Yingge whispered and quickly closed the courtyard door before going to help Li Xinran.

"Miss, are you alright?"

Li Xinran shook his head and looked up at Yingge, his eyes red with tears.

"Yingge..." She spoke slowly, her voice trembling and choking involuntarily, "I'm so tired. I obviously have no expectations for her anymore, but I see that she might really harm me according to other people's plans. , when I really get angry because of what others say, I still feel sad involuntarily..."

As he spoke, two lines of tears slid down his cheeks, and Li Xinran's eyes were filled with confusion and confusion.

"Miss..." Yingge's eyes were also red, but she didn't know what to say.

What to say?She herself was abandoned by her parents. Xirong's iron-hoofed army was approaching and everyone was fleeing. There was not much room in the oxcart, so she was left behind because her brother would be cold without a quilt.

Are boys really that important?

Yingge didn't know the answer and couldn't answer it.

Li Xinran sat on the ground for a while, then slowly recovered, and with the help of Yingge, she slowly got up and walked into the room.

Not long after, Mu Yi asked to see him.

Li Xinran guessed that maybe Mu Yi had arrived early, but he came in late just to avoid losing his face.

But I don't care much about it anymore. The existence of the secret guard is inherently unreasonable.

Mu Yi, who came in this time, brought Li Xinran good news that was not good news.

A long time ago, the people Li Xinran arranged to investigate the Zhu family received a reply. They found the old man before Zhu entered the house, and got a shocking news. Zhu was not his grandfather's original wife. Before Zhu married in, , my grandfather also had a wife, Mrs. Chu, and Mrs. Chu was Zhu’s direct cousin.

The Chu family died early, but less than a year after the death of the Chu family, the Zhu family entered the family.

"Do you know why Mrs. Chu died?" Li Xinran asked.

Mu Yi shook his head: "That old man was just a servant who worked in the kitchen. He usually couldn't even see his master, and the information he knew was only hearsay."

Li Xinran sighed: "Is that all there is? Is there anything else?"

Mu Yidao: "Also, she said that Mrs. Chu was pregnant at that time."

"What?" Li Xinran stood up suddenly, "Pregnant?"

"Yes, it's just that after Mrs. Chu passed away, the fetus in her belly probably died with her."

Li Xinran frowned: "When did the Chu family go?"

"Her original words were made around 50 or 60 years ago. I can't remember exactly how long ago."

After Li Xinran heard it, she didn't say anything and just paced back and forth in the room.

This kind of thing is very strange. She is obviously the original wife and the first wife, but why does she have no sense of existence at all? Even if she died due to dystocia or other reasons, there must be a memorial tablet in the ancestral hall.

Unless... this Chu family has done something to be removed.

However, if the Chu family did something that brought shame to the family, her grandfather would only need to marry someone else. There was no need to marry her cousin as a stepmother, and in less than a year, it seemed... What is forcing them to get married quickly?

Li Xinran had no impression of his grandfather Li Chun, but he had heard his father mention that his grandfather Li Chun was a serious and upright general who was somewhat rigid in his actions.

He treated the soldiers well and had great martial arts skills, but he died early.

Li Song died on the battlefield when he was more than ten years old. It was Li Song who was ordered to guard the border in critical situation and forcefully brought back the glory of the Li family.

While Li Song was struggling on the line of life and death at the border, Li Yang was studying peacefully in Kyoto, enjoying everything his brother had earned. After becoming an official, and at Zhu's request, Li Yang was asked to go to the border by Li Song and enjoy The days when I was in the rear area but my political achievements were increasing.

Even so, Li Song still complained from time to time.

When Li Xinran was at the border, the most annoying thing was his second uncle. Not only was he unable to do anything, but he was obviously just relying on his father to earn political achievements, but he always kept talking, and his clever strategies were not his business, but he had bad ideas. Pile after pile.

If his father hadn't been extremely reliable in finding military advisors, sooner or later, the Li family's army would have been ruined by Li Yang's bad idea.

Sometimes Li Xinran laments that they are born from the same mother, but their personalities are completely different.

Wait, Li Xinran paused, and a guess suddenly flashed through his mind.

Mrs. Chu passed away more than 50 or 60 years ago, and her father is 58 years old this year. Children have changed a lot, but adults have not changed much, especially one or two years old. You can't tell anything at all. What if...

Is Mrs. Chu the biological mother of her father, Li Song?Can this explain why Zhu has always favored Li Yang and bullied his father since he was a child?

Chu died in childbirth, leaving her father alone. As a cousin, Zhu wanted to marry into the Li family as soon as possible and take care of her nephew. However, I don’t know what method Zhu used to fool his grandfather Li Chun into acquiescing that Zhu regarded his father, Li Song, as his mother-in-law. Self-identity.

But there's one thing I still can't figure out: why is there no memorial tablet for the Chu family in the ancestral hall?

"Mu Yi," Li Xinran finalized the follow-up plan and said, "Go and spread the word and find as many people as possible who served in the Li Mansion back then, regardless of gender. I want to have a detailed and clear understanding of everything that happened in the Li Mansion. .”

"Yes."
