Rebirth of the Firstborn Daughter: Life is like a Dream

Princess Mudan resents the emperor. Wei Bingyan can tell from her words that she has to leave some shadows between the Wei and Li families so that they will have some reservations when doing things for the emperor.

When they got home, Li Yuyan asked her what she had heard from Princess Mudan today, and she briefly told Li Yuyan what Princess Mudan had said.

After listening to it, Li Yuyan said, "This is a matter of the past, and the affairs of His Majesty's harem are not for us to know. Just treat it as if you heard someone say something like this today."

Wei Bingyan said: "That's what I mean."

As he was speaking, a maid came back and reported that the old man wanted to ask the young master to go to the study.

"What does father-in-law want to talk to you about? Is it because of the business trips of your two cousins? Uncle's business trip has already arrived, so why is your aunt still not satisfied?" Wei Bingyan cleaned Li Yuyan's sleeves, pouting her little mouth and blaming her in a soft voice.

Li Yuyan smiled and said, "You are too greedy."

"Let's get there quickly." Wei Bingyan said.

Li Yuyan appeared in the study room and realized that besides Li Debing, there were also Li Bingsong and his two cousins. He walked closer and bowed, then glanced at Li Debing with strange eyes, "Father, what happened?"

"Let your cousin tell you." Li Debing's originally serious face now looked even more sinister, and his eyes were filled with raging anger as he looked at Li Fengyan.

"It's all because of this good-for-nothing beast like this that he did some bad things outside." Li Bingsong spoke for his eldest son and looked at Li Yuyan with a smile, "Yu'er, although your cousin doesn't understand the world, he is the eldest grandson of the Li family after all. You have to help him a little."

It seemed that Li Fengyan had caused something serious this time. He glanced at Li Fengyan indifferently and asked, "Who did you offend again? Or did you do something?"

Li Fengyan is five years older than Li Yuyan, but he looks older than his actual age. He is bloated, his eyes are green, and his face does not show any regret. Instead, he looks like he doesn't care. "I didn't get into trouble first this time. The other party is just meddling in other people's business. It has nothing to do with me."

"You beat the son of the Minister of Revenue until he bled, and you still say it has nothing to do with you?" Li Debing asked intently.

"If that kid wasn't nosy, I wouldn't have fought with him. How would I know he was the son of the Minister of Revenue?" Li Fengyan didn't think he was wrong, and retorted fiercely with his neck crossed.

The son of the Minister of Revenue? The stubborn and rigid Li Yingtai who loves to stand up for the weak?

Li Yuyan frowned, "What did you do that Li Yingtai would intervene in your affairs?"

"What should I do? What I do has nothing to do with him." Li Fengyan said.

"That's the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue, Lord Li, a famous gentleman in the capital. If he attacked you first, it must be because you did something evil. It can't be Li Yingtai's fault." Li Yuyan said softly.

Li Fengyan said angrily, "You are still my brother, how can you speak for outsiders?"

"You're beating people up outside, how can you expect us to speak for you?"

Li Debing questioned loudly, then turned around and said to Li Yuyan, "He wanted to forcibly take a singer who was performing in the restaurant back home, but was intercepted by Master Li. Without asking any questions, he asked the servants around him to beat Master Li up, and even beat the man's head to pieces. Master Li has just sent someone to report him to the government office."

Li Bingsong stood up hurriedly, "Second brother, you can't let the Li family tell Brother Feng, otherwise his future will be ruined. You and Yu'er are the favorites of His Majesty. Who in the capital dares to offend you? Go and tell the Li family, they definitely don't have the courage to do anything."

These words made the faces of Li Debing and his father darken.

"We are truly trusted by Your Majesty, but does that mean you can think that the people in your family are doing evil things? Can you just ignore the fact that Feng'er killed someone outside? This is really lawless." Li Debing was furious. If Li Bingsong was not his brother, he would have cursed him out long ago.

How do you teach your son? What is the difference between Li Fengyan's behavior and those second-generation ancestors who bully the weak and snatch other people's women all day long?

Li Bingsong said unhappily, "Feng'er hasn't killed anyone yet."

It's really a rotten tree that can't be carved! Li Debing was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore.

"Uncle, you are going to kill me and my father." Li Yuyan suddenly said.

Li Bingsong rolled his eyes and said, "Why do you say that? Why would I want to kill you? Don't talk nonsense."

"What will happen to the Li family and the Linghu family? Even if they hold the emperor's grace, they can let their relatives and clans bully women and men and oppress the weak and incompetent. Although His Majesty trusts us, will he allow our Li family to become as powerful as those two families?

The Li family is not an ordinary citizen, but the Minister of Revenue. If we have the courage to cruelly bully even the Minister of Revenue, how do you think His Majesty will view the Li family? "Li Yuyan knew that it was useless to talk about justice with such an uncle, so he could only choose the way that could scare him the most.

As expected, Li Bingsong turned pale with fear. "No... not really. I just hurt someone badly. I came to express my apology. Your Majesty, why would you care?"

Li Yuyan looked at Li Fengyan casually, "It depends on how you say sorry."

"You want me to say sorry to that bastard? No way!" Li Fengyan shouted immediately.

"Don't mention that you have no moral grounds. Do you think you can beat or scold the son of the Minister of Revenue whenever you want?" Li Yuyan asked coldly.

Li Fengyan said, "Uncle is also the Minister of Personnel, could it be that he is afraid of the Li family?"

"Shut up!" Li Debing couldn't help himself. "You took my little girl by force and bullied the weak. This is a heinous crime. Young Master Li was angry when he met you on the road. Not only do you not know your fault, but you also want to use your power to oppress others. I am the Minister of Personnel, so what? I won't allow you to use the reputation of the Li family to show off your power. My father and I will not interfere in this matter of the Li family. You can do whatever you want. Even if you have to go to jail, you deserve it and you will be punished."

Li Bingsong was suddenly shocked, "Second brother, how can you say that? Feng'er is your nephew after all."

"Brother, it's the father's fault for not raising and educating his child. Feng'er has become a lawless person because of what he has done. Your business trip has been confirmed, and you will naturally have to settle down in the capital in the future. If Feng'er doesn't know how to restrain himself and continues to offend others, will the hundreds of people in the Li family be buried with him?" Li Debing asked.

Li Bingsong blushed, "Just...just based on your and Yu'er's influence in the capital..."

"What power does our Li family have?" Li Debing interrupted him and said loudly, "We are not prominent nor are we royal nobles. We are just earning money from the emperor and doing things for his majesty. We have gained a little trust from his majesty. Do we have to use this trust to show off to others and end up with the whole family being blamed?"
