The white and tender wrists were red, swollen and numb, rubbing her wrists clumsily and getting up, her legs and feet were still a little awkward.

After pulling the hairband that fell in front of her back behind her ears, Liu Meier looked up at Sister Dai who was standing quietly in front of her and asked, "By the way, how did Sister Dai find me?"

"Your mother reported to the government, and even sent servants to post notices throughout the capital to find people. There was a lot of trouble." Because the Taiyuan Academy was not allowed to enter without authorization, the Chang family sent people to report to the officials for instructions to search, and on the other hand In person, they sent people to guard outside early.

Confucian scholars inside and outside the Taiyuan Academy were frightened by this, fearing that the plot would be revealed, so they asked the eldest princess to make the decision.

Jiang Changdai saw that the situation had reached such a level, if she forcibly concealed it, it would be easier for Qin Wang's party to notice the anomaly, so she could only plan ahead.

"Mother must be very worried." Liu Meier was very annoyed, she didn't expect that the sudden sound of fighting in the capital was even more frightening.

When the flames filled the sky, Liu Meier could vaguely hear the shouts of fighting and said in a panic: "Sister Dai, is there a fight outside?"

"That place is in the direction of King Qin's mansion, and I think it was resisted to the death." Jiang Changdai turned her head to look at Liu Meier in front of her, "I'll let the guards take you back to the mansion."

"Sister Dai, won't you leave with Mei'er?"

"Well, I have something else to do."

When Liu Meier left with the guards, she secretly looked back at Sister Dai who was standing quietly in the sky full of flames, her heart was full of uneasiness.

After returning to the Liu Mansion, Mrs. Chang had been waiting in front of the mansion for a long time, looking anxiously at Liu Meier who came back and hugged her: "Meier, are you not injured?"

"Mother, I'm fine." Liu Meier still felt a little painful when she was hugged.

The fighting continued throughout the night, and when the dawn was about to break, the originally magnificent Prince Qin's mansion was beaten to pieces.

In the mansion, King Qin, who was drinking and drunk, was hacked to death on the spot by soldiers with knives. He probably didn't believe how there were so many soldiers and horses under the capital before he died.

And his son Jiang Yi was caught playing in the brothel, and when he heard the news that his father had been executed, he fainted on the spot.

The Confucian scholars, who had been bullied and arrested by King Qin's henchmen for three years, chose to put down their pens and inks and take up their swords to participate in the killing.

Yuan Xing, the son of the elder, the head of the four assistant ministers, personally took Jiang Yi out of his hands in order to avenge his broken leg. After that, the soldiers tied Jiang Yi to the east city of the city gate and ordered the people to kill anyone who was wronged by him. Take his flesh and blood with a knife to vent his hatred.

The panicked people in the capital embraced each other and cried when they heard the news about Prince Qin and his son. Many nobles and nobles even cheered for joy because they were insulted by Jiang Yi, and approached Dongshi with knives.

Those scenes were amazing, the flow of people coming and going in Dongshi never stopped day and night, and Jiang Yi was tall and strong, and he suffered thousands of knives for three days before he died.

King Qin's father and son had already subdued the law, and then the hundreds of thousands of troops turned and surrendered. Only some of King Qin's heirs led part of the troops and fled to Shanzhou, the original fiefdom of King Qin.

At this time, the 13-year-old young emperor Jiang Fengcai officially came to the court, and the young emperor Jiang Feng personally proposed that the eldest princess be regent to assist in the important affairs of the court.

Liu Zhi was naturally one of them. When he learned that the court had decided to send troops to fight against the remnants of King Qin, he realized the danger.

Immediately, Liu Zhi married several daughters one after another to the children of the four major nobles in the capital to make friends.

Although Liu Zhi is a villain, he hasn't gone out of his mind yet, and naturally he won't be so courageous as to take action against these great families of the ancient Jiang country.

So in the few years he followed Qin Wang, Liu Zhi only dared to ridicule some poor and down-to-earth gentry.

After all, most of the people who say that businessmen are lowly are these gentry who think they are well-educated and high-spirited.

There is a big difference between the gentry and the aristocrats of the aristocratic family. After all, most of the aristocrats of the aristocratic family were entrusted with princes and nobles in their ancestors.

The heads of the four major families have more queens in their generations, and they are the real princes and nobles.

The second is Yue Wang Xie Sanjia, the Yue family has produced good generals for generations, but since King Qin gained power, most of the children of the Yue family were persecuted or transferred away from the capital, and the rest have become useless.

Now only the Wang and Xie families still have some prestige in the court and the public. The ancestors of these two families are rare families of kings and princes of the opposite sex.

It's just that Xie's family has been outstanding for nearly a hundred years, so naturally they are also tainted with the arrogance and aloofness of scholars, plus Chang Chun is familiar with the Xie family's children, so Liu Zhi is naturally not easy to lick his skin.

Liu Zhi, who once again gave full play to the pursuit of profit as a businessman, took a fancy to the difference between the two, and because he invested a lot of money, he hooked up with the Wang family, one of the four major families.

When Xia Qiu joined, it was dog days, and it was the hot time. A series of edicts issued by the court made the dignitaries and nobles in the capital tremble, and even the banquets were not as extravagant as in previous years.

The Tai Academy had suspended classes since that night of chaos, so Liu Meier naturally couldn't leave the mansion, and only occasionally heard some news about the Eldest Princess' regent from the Chang family.

The rockery and rocky water between the pavilions and pavilions of the Liu Mansion are particularly unique, because the female relatives do not need to read and write on weekdays, so they mostly eat, drink, and have fun in summer.

Those little fat guys who always liked to bully Liu Meier in the past were very tall, but now they dare not say a word when they see Liu Meier around.

In the morning, Liu Meier put on new clothes and said to her mother: "Mother, this sunflower water is here, but Shun'er's brothers still invite me to go out to play tomorrow, do you want to refuse?"

Seeing that Liu Meier hadn't moved at all, Chang was a little worried about her congenital weakness, but now that her sunflower water has come, her figure has slowly grown, so she is relieved.

The Chang family has always been indifferent to the courteousness of concubines and children. Now the court has issued an order to strictly regulate the order of seniority, and the eldest son must inherit all the family business.

Knowing that these concubines can only rely on Meier's preferences to share some leftovers in the future, they will naturally find ways to please them.

"Now that Mei'er is getting older, there will always be inconveniences. Let's find a reason to study and refuse their invitation." Although Chang's family is not good at hurting the harmony between the children and brothers, they must always be on guard against concubines. chambers.

"Yeah." Liu Meier is actually afraid of the heat, especially in this period of time, it's better to play in the temple with her sisters.

In the afternoon, all the female relatives were listening to music, drawing lots and hunting for treasures in the water pavilion, but Liu Juan, who was the most lively on weekdays, was unusually quiet.

Liu Meier drew a lot and was looking for a paper pinwheel in the fake stone cave, but she didn't expect to see Liu Juan wiping her tears secretly.

Liu Juan is more than a month older than Liu Meier, and they are similar in age. Liu Juan played with Liu Meier when they were young.

Although Liu Meier is busy studying now and rarely has the opportunity to play with Liu Juan on weekdays, the relationship between the two is still the best among all the sisters.

"Sister Juaner, why are you crying?" Liu Meier squatted aside, a little at a loss.

"Father will marry me to the Wang family as a concubine's granddaughter-in-law next spring." Liu Juan looked at Liu Mei'er with tears in her eyes.

Liu Meier has been a man in both her lifetimes, so she has never encountered such a situation as Liu Juan, so she can only clumsily take out a handkerchief from her sleeve pocket and say to Liu Juan, "Don't cry, speak slowly first. Bar."

The youngest of the Wang family's grandchildren is thirty, and most of the concubine's children will be sent out like objects.

After dinner in the evening, Mrs. Chang listened to Liu Meier's words and said, "This is your father's decision, and we can't decide."

The head of the family is never a joke.

And waiter Liu Juan didn't come out to play around anymore, but had to prepare for marriage and other rules all day long.

This year's New Year's Eve, Father Liu will still entertain guests, but there are more children from aristocratic families.

Those aristocratic families most like to have fun with dancing girls and concubines at banquets. Liu Meier doesn't like this kind of occasion, but she is old, and she can't avoid it.

Only then did Liu Meier realize that if she showed herself as a girl, she might be married off early.

In the warm spring of March, Liu Meier went to the Tai Academy to attend classes with a restless mind.

The peach tree has already opened its delicate buds, and everything is thriving again.

But Liu Meier felt that there was never any pressure. In the past, Liu Meier would ride horses and shoot arrows with Zhao Yang and the others, but now Liu Meier knew that she had to hide her secret.

If it is exposed, not only will I violate Jiang Guo's laws, but my mother will also be implicated and imprisoned.

The more this is the case, the more cautious Liu Meier is and even often stays alone in Tai Academy.

The swing in the garden was occupied by young students who had just entered the Imperial College, and sister Dai, as the regent princess, no longer appeared.

Maybe everything has changed.

Zhao Yang looked at Liu Meier, who was buried in copying books, and said, "It's strange, you always liked to look out of the window to see the peach blossoms before, why are you so lifeless this year?"

Liu Meier paused slightly and replied: "Next year the rural examination will come, if I don't work hard, I will have to wait another three years."

"Anyway, I don't plan to study, I should join the army this autumn!" Zhao Yang said confidently.

"Then you won't come to Tai Academy anymore?" Liu Meier asked dejectedly.

Zhao Yang smiled proudly: "Of course, I'm going to the barracks, why do you want to go with me?"

Liu Meier, who was still very sad at first, shook her head again and again: "No, I'd better study."

When she was young, she could compete with Zhao Yang in archery and horseback riding, but now Liu Meier knows that hiding her identity to save her life is the most important thing.

"I knew you were a coward." Zhao Yang patted Liu Meier's head with his hand, "But you are smarter, and you are still too weak to fight."

Liu Meier's head was still a little buzzing after this beat, and it took her a while to recover.

In the afternoon, Liu Meier practiced archery with the Taisheng students, but she didn't expect that the new coach was the general Yue Wu who had just quelled the rebellion of King Qin's remnant party.

"He's really amazing." Zhao Yang said enviously.

The students who had neglected their studies were suddenly sweating profusely from the training, so naturally Liu Meier couldn't stand it.

Yue Wu inspected this group of noble children and said: "If you fail the assessment today, don't come to Taiyuan Academy tomorrow!"

This sound scared Liu Meier so much that she didn't dare to say anything, when her vision was a little blurred by sweat, she suddenly heard a familiar sound.

"General Yue, let's forget about today." Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who was already a little unsteady in the crowd.

Yue Wu knelt sideways, and the princes all around knelt down one after another, "I see the eldest princess, the eldest princess is a thousand years old."

When the tall figure in green clothes and wide-sleeved clothes came into view, Liu Meier forgot to move.

Jiang Changdai was a little worried when she met the staring gaze.

She, can't she be exhausted?

The dumbfounded Zhao Yang tried his best to tear at Liu Meier's robe, wondering if this guy wants to be beheaded?

Liu Meier met Sister Dai's surprised gaze, she suddenly came back to her senses, and knelt down with her face flushed.

The look just now was so silly!
