Chapter 412: Action

Li Xing turned around, facing Li Wei. The light in the tent was not very bright, but because they were so close, they could see each other's faces clearly.
"Sister, did he commit a capital crime?"
"Capital sin? I won't let my eldest brother die, and those old foxes won't kill him. It's just that I can't see the power of the Li family. After this incident, my eldest brother's position cannot be guaranteed to be true. Let him lie dormant for a while, and wait for the next day to rise again, it depends on whether he can bear it."
Hearing what my sister-in-law said, Li Xing knew in his heart that the most taboo thing for those power ministers is that their relatives have the power to dominate. So now my sister-in-law has cut her wings without waiting for the emperor to take charge of the government, leaving enough space for the Li family. By this time she understood the purpose of the Queen Mother.
"Sister, you have a good intention, but why don't you tell the auntie directly these words? If you tell her clearly, she won't misunderstand you."
Li Wei said: "The auntie believes that I am a stalker and does not make my eldest brother feel better, and that I am a white-eyed wolf. Then I have to explain something. It is useless to say more, so I don't want to come out to take this matter, so that there is a regent outside, he will Know how to do it."
Li Xing exhorted: "Sister, you bury everything in your heart, and you have too many things in your heart. Don't you worry about getting sick after a long time?"
Facing his sister's kindness, Li Wei smiled lightly: "Don't worry, I am strong inside. It is not that easy to destroy me. I still have a certain degree of resistance to pressure."
Li Xing learned that although his sister is in a high position and holds great power, there are many places where she is not free. If she is in the position of her sister, I am afraid it is also the fate of being manipulated.
Li Wei said: "Today is a good day for you. I will be one year older after today. I will study with my husband and help me teach the princess."
Li Xing said: "Don't worry about the Queen Mother. I am the princess's companion, so I will do my best."
"Well, I also sincerely hope that you can learn something that will be beneficial to you in your life. Today my mother came to tell me about you..." At the beginning of the words, Li Wei hesitated again. She shouldn't Say the following to my sister.
"What did my mother say about me?" Li Xing blinked his eyes full of expectation.
"Speaking of you...saying that you have grown up, let me take good care of you and plan for your future." Li Wei said with some hesitation.
Li Xing also knew very well in his heart that the future of a woman who had passed her husband was not about marrying someone. Li Xing was still very concerned about who to marry in the future. She knew that ever since she was selected into the palace to serve as a companion to the nine princesses, and when she was asked to serve as a companion to the queen mother, she knew very well that her future was in the body of her sister, and her parents might not be able to decide.
Thinking of her life-long events, Li Xing's heart beats so fast, she said shyly: "Do you have any plans for the Queen Mother?"
Another person appeared in Li Wei's mind, and she remembered her sister's love for the ruby ​​hairpin. She sank in her heart and asked, "Fifth sister, what do you think of the regent?"
"The regent?" Li Xing's chest jumped more and more fiercely, as if it was about to overflow immediately, she said nervously: "The regent is a high-powered person, and no one is second in the world."
The look in my sister's eyes is exactly the same as that of Wang Yulan and Bian Lingzhi. It seems that Li Xing likes the regent very much. She cared about Li Xing’s face and couldn’t explain her words. She only said,
He was sick and weak in the early years, but he looks better here. Now he is the regent, and the military affairs are all on him, and he is really working hard. ."
"Yes, the regent is not something ordinary people can do. The prince is really talented." Li Xing was still happy when he mentioned this person. She waited for her sister to tell her that she would decide the matter for the future of her and the regent. However, Li Wei did not continue to talk to her about the regent, but said: "Okay, go to sleep. You will have it tomorrow. I have a lot to do when I go to school."
Li Xing can’t help feeling a little bit distracted. She wants to be with the regent for a long time. She must have her sister-in-law grant her marriage. If she wants her sister-in-law to agree to this marriage, she can only serve more carefully and please her. Yes. Li Xing felt that one of the things she was smarter than the dead Fourth Sister was that she could clearly recognize her identity and situation, and what she wanted, and she could see herself clearly.
Li Wei did not say that she wanted to make the decision for her sister. In her opinion, the princess still wants to match her sister. The future is still very long and there are endless variables. After this year, we will not mention it again in the spring of the coming year. late. At that time, she must have completely let go of Zhao Qian in her heart, and it would not be too late to give a marriage.
The two sisters slept on the same bed, but their thoughts were different. Li Wei lay face-in, closed his eyes and waited to dream. Li Xing also turned around, facing out. The faint candlelight in the corner made her open her eyes. What the future looks like is not a test for the sisters.
When it was dawn, Li Xing wanted to personally serve Li Wei combing his hair and changing clothes, but Li Wei stopped him: "With Qingxiang and them, I won't bother my fifth sister."
Qingxiang brought the little palace ladies in and combed her hair with Li Wei, who changed into a blue-gray plain shirt and skirt. All the hair was combed, the hair was rolled up, and the sandalwood carved hairpin was inserted. Not even any powder. A complete widow costume.
There is no need to be particular about wearing Li Wei, so he cleaned up and rinsed his mouth. She worshiped a few times before the Bodhisattva. Then we had breakfast with the princess and Li Xing. She personally escorted them to the car again, and the two went to the Wenhua Pavilion.
Immediately afterwards, the concubines came to the Chongqing Palace to greet her with her. The Concubine Dun did not show her face, but instead sent a maid over to greet her. It turned out that Fu Wang was ill again.
Li Wei sat on the head, slowly talking to the humanity in front of him: "I talked about the decree a while ago. It has been almost two months. The results have been effective, but it is not obvious. The expenses in the palace are still too large, yes. The pen is not a small burden, so I was thinking about cutting down another third of the people served in Chongqing Palace."
As long as Chongqing Palace introduces any new measures, the other palaces can only follow suit.
When everyone heard that the queen dowager was about to lay off her staff, Mrs. Ning first said: "The people around the queen dowager have already been laid off. If we cut it down, I am afraid that there will be insufficient manpower. There are rules in the ancestors.
Li Weidao: "The rules are dead, and people live. In recent years, the harvest has not been good, the frontiers are still fighting, and the treasury is empty. If blindly extravagant and extravagant, it will increase the burden on the country, and women like me will not be able to make achievements. , I have to start with the things around me, and I can reduce it.
These concubines and concubines in the palace are all women from a family. When they were daughters at home, they were spoiled in every possible way. They grew up among the beautiful bushes. Now they are unwilling to be frugal, but because of the face of the queen mother, I dare not say anything.
