Chapter 680: The General’s Wife Who Was Married but Left with Her Son (9)
At first, they wanted to nominate the heir of Emperor Qi.
But how could Su Li, who sensed all this, agree?
All the princes who were nominated were thrown to the end of the world by Su Li, left to fend for themselves.
After being influenced by Emperor Qi, these princes of Emperor Qi would attack their original father first once they came to power.
Of course Su Li would not agree.
After three months of struggle, someone finally proposed to make the original father, the prince of a different surname who cared about the people, the new emperor.
Only then did Su Li feel satisfied and collect the rainwater from the palace.
When the civil and military officials saw this, they felt even more that their choice was the right one and that it was in accordance with the will of heaven.
After Xie's father came to power, Su Li also put the gold, silver and treasures in the national treasury back.
After all, without money and property, the people are the ones who suffer in the end.
Especially now that the original body’s father is the emperor, of course we have to support him even more.
Today, Su Li has been named Princess Changle by her father Xie.
In three months, Gu Yanzhao and He Mianmian's stomachs had grown a lot bigger.
However, at this moment, the Gu family has reached the point of being penniless and heavily in debt.
Even when Marquis Pingyang died on his bed, he was buried in a thin coffin that He Mianmian got from somewhere.
After being hungry for okra for two days, the marquis's wife finally started to pick up the leftovers on the ground and eat them.
……
"Mianmian, I feel so uncomfortable! Why can't I get rid of this pregnancy?" Gu Yanzhao sat on the couch, panting, holding his stomach.
"Gu Lang, don't you find it strange?" He Mianmian said, taking his arm.
"What?"
"In the past three months, no matter what we did, we couldn't get into my sister's yard. Don't you find it strange?" He Mianmian said in a low voice, looking in the direction of Su Li's yard.
"But Xie Shu'er's maidservant can come and go freely."
Gu Yanzhao nodded, "I don't know how my mother is doing now!"
"What do you think? Should we go and capture Xie Shuer's maid and ask her to take us in?" He Mianmian asked again.
She tried to catch it herself.
But she discovered that once a woman became pregnant, her sea snake clan would lose all their magic.
Now she is as weak as an ordinary person and has no strength at all.
"Forget it, she is now Princess Changle, we can't afford to offend her."
Gu Yanzhao stroked his belly and said, "I really don't understand why I have this thing! I can't get rid of it even if I beat it!"
"Then we can only wait until the baby is born before making any plans!" Seeing that Gu Yanzhao disagreed, He Mianmian was helpless.
However, every day shop owners from the capital city would come to collect debts, which was really annoying for them.
"Mianmian, check if you have any valuables. Those shopkeepers said that if we don't give them money tomorrow, they will empty our mansion." Gu Yanzhao thought of another thing.
"Can't you just let them go directly to your sister? I don't have any valuables!" He Mianmian felt even more uncomfortable when this topic was mentioned.
She followed Gu Yanzhao back, originally intending to enjoy a good life.
But I didn't expect that I didn't get to enjoy the blessings, but instead suffered a lot of sins.
"I looked for her, but Xie Shuer refused to recognize her..." Gu Yanzhao gasped, looking worried.
"Then what should we do?" He Mianmian pondered for a while, took out a small conch from his chest, his eyes full of ruthlessness.
That night, a strange conch sound was heard from the Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
This allowed Su Li, who was originally practicing in the companion space, to appear directly in the yard.
"Is this the sea snake calling its companions?" Su Li raised his eyebrows.
[Yes, host sister! The sound of this conch is inaudible to most people. You have to be careful! ] Tuanzi suggested in a low voice.
"Let them come! Would I be afraid of those sea snakes?" Su Li shook his head and smiled.
She returned to the room leisurely and sat quietly waiting for the arrival of He Mianmian's companions.
It didn't take long.
Three or four meter long sea snakes crawled out of the city walls and swam into the courtyard of Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
At this moment, a dark shadow stood in He Mianmian's yard, staring at He Mianmian quietly.
There was a large box of gold and silver treasures at his feet, which sparkled in the moonlight.
"Brother, you're here?" He Mianmian asked happily.
"You said you came to the shore to enjoy yourself, so why do you want your brother to give you gold, silver and jewelry? Also, what's wrong with your stomach?" the black shadow asked coldly.
"Brother, stop asking so many questions. Can you help me kill someone?"
He Mianmian pointed in the direction of Su Li's courtyard and said, "Kill that woman. She is the one who caused my downfall!"
"Okay, you keep the gold, silver and jewelry yourself." The black shadow had a storage bag in his hand. He put the box of treasures into it and handed it to He Mianmian.
"Big brother is always the best to me." He Mianmian hugged him with an excited voice.
Then release.
The black shadow waved his hand, and the sea snakes swam towards Su Li.
"Here it comes!" Su Li, who was practicing with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and said softly.
The sea snakes surrounded the entire yard and no one was allowed to enter.
"There is actually a barrier protecting it. There are no ordinary people in this yard. Which master has my little sister offended?" The black shadow frowned as he looked at the pale white barrier.
Then, he waved his hand and leapt into the darkness.
And the sea snakes also disappeared.
Su Li: “…”
She was already prepared to eat the sea snake soup, but the other party actually ran away?
So boring!
At the same time, He Mianmian, who was waiting for her elder brother to kill Su Li, heard a voice in her ears, "Little sister, that man is very powerful. I can't afford to offend your brother. You'd better pray for your own good!"
"Damn it!" He Mianmian cursed fiercely and touched her belly, "It seems that she is the one who caused Gu Lang and I to get pregnant!"
Helpless, she planned to take care of Su Li herself after she gave birth to the baby.
The next day.
He Mianmian spent the entire morning using the gold and silver sent by her eldest brother to pay off the debts she and Gu Yanzhao owed.
Su Li raised an eyebrow after learning about it, "It seems that the sound of the conch is not only to attract people, but also to attract people to send money!"
[Host sister, what should we do? Should we go and snatch the storage bag from He Mianmian? ] Tuanzi asked.
"A storage bag, huh? That thing is bound to the owner's aura. It can only be opened when she dies."
Su Li shook her head. "Forget it. Let's wait a few months until they give birth to the baby in their belly!"
Let them have some fun for a few days!
Gu Yanzhao looked at the new servants in the yard and the delicious food on the table with an unbelievable look on his face, "Mianmian, what is this?"
"Oh, I sent a message to my eldest brother, and he sent someone to give me some silver." He Mianmian said softly.
"Brother? Didn't you say you were an orphan?" Gu Yanzhao was surprised.
"Oh, I have an older brother, but we lost contact when I was very young. He finally found me a while ago!" He Mianmian found a lame excuse.
She served food to Gu Yanzhao, "Gu Lang, you haven't eaten meat for a long time, eat something quickly!"
