The concubines became more confident.
"That's right! Master, you haven't done justice for me yet.
"My fourth sister got me all wet. Look, her clothes are all wet."
"Sixth sister, it was obviously you who started it. You relied on the master's favor to complain first, right?
My Lord, my clothes are all wet."
Li Mingde was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Your clothes are wet, just go back and change. Can't you see there are guests? How can you be so disrespectful and unruly?"
"Isn't she just a child? What does she know? Master, don't worry, we will make sure to make her happy."
Nangong Jiu became interested: "Auntie, what are we going to play?"
"What do you want to play?"
Nangong Jiu's eyes rolled around twice, and then he looked at Li Mingde's old arms and legs: "Ride a big horse, I want to ride a big horse!"
"Riding a big horse isn't fun, shall we try something else?"
"No, just riding a big horse!"
The concubines looked at each other and began to blame each other.
"Oh, I can't. I twisted my waist yesterday and it still hurts."
"I can't do that either! I caught a cold a few days ago and I'm still feeling dizzy. If I drop her, I won't be able to report to my colleagues, right?
Come on, Sixth Sister. You are strong and healthy, and it should be no problem for you to carry a two-year-old child."
"That's right, Sixth Sister is the most suitable."
The Sixth Aunt, who was pushed out by several people, looked at Li Mingde pitifully.
"Master, I didn't sleep last night and now I feel dizzy and dizzy. Master, you love me the most, so please take my place?"
"Master, you've loved your sixth sister in vain, haven't you? At the critical moment, she pushed you out."
"That's right, Sixth Sister is an ungrateful person..."
"You are not ungrateful people, go for the master!"
"We can't."
Li Mingde pointed at a few people, then at himself: "You, you..."
Nangong Jiu laughed in his heart.
Old man, enjoy this beauty's kindness!
"Uncle Li, ride a big horse, I want to ride a big horse..."
Li Mingde had no choice but to grit his teeth and lie on the ground.
As Nangong Jiu climbed onto him, he used his spiritual sense to say to him, "Master Li, what's the point of having so many concubines?
If there is trouble, they will push you out without hesitation. Do you believe that if a disaster strikes, they will run faster than anyone else?
Get up quickly! You have done this yourself, so you must bear the consequences!"
Li Mingde was angry and anxious. He crawled around the house once but could not move anymore.
Nangong Jiu sneered: "Climb, why don't you climb? You are such a person, and you still follow others to take so many concubines!"
As soon as Nangong Jiu slid off him, Madam Li hurried back home.
When she saw Nangong Jiu, she was about to kneel down, but Nangong Jiu stopped her with his eyes and communicated with her through his spiritual sense.
"Madam Li, let's play a game to test the loyalty of the concubines in your Li Mansion. You..."
After hearing this, Mrs. Li was stunned for only a moment and then began to cooperate.
She glared at Li Mingde and his concubines, "What are you doing? The situation is pressing, and you're still fighting over who's who.
Master, something has happened, something terrible has happened!"
Li Mingde was shocked: "Tell me clearly, what happened?"
"My father just came back from the palace. He said that something went terribly wrong on your mission and the Emperor is sending people to investigate. We are afraid that our lives will be in danger.
I guess they'll be investigating the matter soon, so make a decision quickly."
"Big mistake? How is that possible?" Li Mingde panicked.
Mrs. Li's acting skills soared as she stepped forward to pull Li Mingde: "Master, it's true! Otherwise, let's run away quickly?"
Li Mingde was so frightened that his legs went weak and he slumped down in a chair.
"This whole land belongs to the king. Where can I run? I can't escape the disaster. I will wait here."
Madam Li looked at her concubines again.
"Since the master won't leave, I swear to stand by him. It's up to you all to leave or stay."
"What bad luck to have found such a useless old thing!"
The four concubines cursed and scattered like birds and beasts.
Only a concubine with a child was left standing there without moving.
Soon, four people came out hurriedly, each carrying a bundle, grabbed Li Mingde's hand, and pressed their fingerprints on the divorce letter.
"Li Mingde, we are still young and cannot wait for death with you. From now on, we will go our separate ways."
After saying that, they rushed towards the gate of the mansion like crazy, running faster than rabbits.
After the people had run away, Nangong Jiu looked at Li Mingde, who had a dejected look on his face, and laughed out loud.
"Master Li, the game is over!"
Li Mingde was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.
"Princess, you said this is just a game?"
Madam Li smiled and stepped forward to explain, "Yes, this is a game that the princess asked me to play with her.
Now, Master should be able to see them clearly, right?"
"You..." Li Mingde jumped up and pointed his trembling finger at Mrs. Li who was smiling.
After a moment, he wilted again.
"Thank you, Princess. I understand!
They are ungrateful wolves who can never be tamed. They can only share happiness but not hardship. When disaster strikes, they each look after themselves. I am the foolish one."
"Just think it through! You people from the Li Mansion actually dared to say that this princess is your illegitimate daughter and that you are my father. You are simply courting death.
If you don't want to die, tell your ministers about your personal experience in detail tomorrow.
Otherwise, this princess will punish you for the crime of disrespecting the Li family."
Li Mingde knelt down and said, "I will obey the princess's order!"
Mrs. Li smiled and went to the kitchen to prepare a table of dishes and warmly entertained Nangong Jiu.
In the afternoon, Nangong Jiu rode Xiao Wang and said goodbye and left Li's house.
"Xiao Wang, hurry up, let's go to Chen's house quickly, take care of things as soon as possible, and return home early.
With Li Mingde and Chen Guiquan giving personal examples to the ministers, I estimate that within two days, this unhealthy trend will be successfully curbed.
Starting tomorrow morning, we will work hard to refine our inner elixir in the mansion."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we'll be there in the next moment."
Xiao Wang was so excited that he ran to the gate of Chen's house like the wind.
The doorman of the Chen Mansion looked at the man and the dog and felt that they seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where they were, so he had to go forward and ask.
"Little baby, what can I do for you?"
Nangong Jiu slid down to the ground, tilted her head back and said seriously, "I'm the daughter of your master's colleague. I was bored today, so I came to visit you."
The doorman had been informed long ago, and when he heard that it was the daughter of the master's colleague, he nodded respectfully.
"Please wait a moment, young lady. I will report to the master right away."
But after a moment, Lord Chen hurried out to greet him.
Seeing Nangong Jiu, he was about to kneel down, but was held up by a strong force.
A voice reached his ears.
"Master Chen Guiquan, have you forgotten what my royal grandfather said? Remember, my name is Liu Jiuer."
After the voice fell, he squatted down in a serious manner.
"Uncle Chen, Jiuer is here to see you..."
