When Li Xin was busy at the border, something bad happened in the capital.

After Li Xin made a big fuss once, the Pingnan Marquis Mansion was a bit unrest. Although Li Chun was a little stupid, he was the prince of Pingnan Marquis Mansion after all. He really represented Pingnan Marquis Mansion. However, Emperor Chengde mercilessly stripped off all the official honors on him, which made all the civil and military officials in the capital receive some "signals". For more than a month, no one had ever interacted with Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

Mrs. Yu also closed her door to thank the guests. This waiting door, which was once glorious, seemed to be about to decline.

But on this day, Mrs. Yu, who had not left for a long time, took the prince Li Chun who had lost all his weight and several generals of the tribe, and left the house early in the morning and rushed to the south gate of the capital.

After a few people left the south gate of the capital, they had to continue walking south.

At this time, several people who described ordinary people had quietly followed these people.

Mrs. Yu and Li Chun are roles like protons. The court will not openly restrict their actions, but will never allow them to leave the capital or leave the court's gaze.

Mrs. Yu took her son and walked all the way to Shili Pavilion outside the south city gate.

In this era of inconvenient transportation, it is very difficult to meet friends and relatives if they are not in the same city. Generally, they will stay for at least ten days and half a month when visiting relatives, or even half a year before leaving. They will naturally be reluctant to leave when they see each other off, and they will usually send them out of the city for ten miles.

This Shili Pavilion is the place to welcome and send.

Mrs. Yu, with her son who had lost weight, sat quietly in Shili Pavilion, looking over there.

Li Chun's eyes were a little flickering.

After the last kidnapping of Zhong Xiaoxiao, Mrs. Yu did not hit him or punish him, but she never paid attention to her son again. This made him feel even more uncomfortable than beating Li Chun.

After Li Chun sat down at Shili Pavilion, he looked at his mother carefully: "My mother, who are we here to pick up?"

Mrs. Yu's face was calm and she did not talk to Li Chun.

To put it bluntly, if Li Chun was not her biological son, he would have probably been strangled to death by Mrs. Yu at this time.

Seeing that his mother ignored him, Li Chun smiled bitterly, sat down again, and spoke to a man in his forties and fifties behind him, "Uncle Meng, who are we here to welcome?"

This great man is named Meng Jiao. He is the chief guard of the Marquis' Mansion in Pingnan and the boss of more than a thousand divisions. He was a powerful general who followed the Marquis's side in his early years. Later, he was injured and was arranged to return to the capital. While working in the Marquis' Mansion, he helped to bring those unruly veterans.

Most of the troops of the Pingnan Marquis' Mansion were veterans who retreated from the battlefield, and fighting and causing trouble were normal. Meng Jiao could control them, which shows that he had a very high prestige in the army.

Meng Jiao bowed slightly to Li Chun and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the little marquis, it's the second marquis who are going to come back."

Li Chun's body trembled slightly.

The second master in Meng Jiao's mouth is Li Yan, the adopted son of the old marquis Li Zhijie and the deputy general of the Pingnan Army. Li Yan, who was young, followed Li Zhijie, the Marquis of Pingnan, and only had much more military merit than Li Shen. A few months ago, when Li Shen returned to Beijing to handle matters, the Pingnan Army was Li Yan in charge. He can be said to be the veritable second-ranked figure of the Li family.

Since Li Shen took over as Marquis of Pingnan, Li Yan rarely returned to the capital, and usually helped handle military affairs in southern Xinjiang. Now Li Yan has returned for no reason, mostly because of his own affairs...

After the last time Zhong Xiaoxiao incident, Li Chun knew that he had made a mistake, but Mrs. Yu had never punished him, which made him even more anxious. At this time, Li Yan suddenly returned to Beijing, which made the little marquis' heart tremble suddenly.

Thinking of this, Li Chun forced a smile: "Uncle Meng, the second uncle suddenly came back. Is there anything wrong with him..."

Meng Jiao shook his head: "I don't know this. I heard that he is going to go back to Beijing to serve..."

Halfway through his words, Mrs. Yu looked over and said, "You're just talking too much!"

Meng Jiao immediately stopped talking and scratched his head with a smile.

A group of more than a dozen people waited at Shili Pavilion for several hours. It was almost afternoon when a few black spots came from the official road to the south and ran over. After getting closer, there were several big horses. Mrs. Yu took Li Chun out to greet her.

The leader of these people was sitting on a strong man, who looked about forty years old, wearing a single dress, and looked like a military man. After seeing Mrs. Yu from a distance, he quickly jumped off the horse and bowed to Mrs. Yu, "I have seen my sister-in-law."

Mrs. Yu smiled on her face: "Uncle Second has worked hard all the way."

Li Chun, who was behind him, kowtowed to Li Yan, said, "My nephew has met his uncle."

Li Yan looked at Li Chun seriously, finally shook his head and sighed, reached out to help Li Chun up, and shook his head and said, "Young Marquis, don't be so polite, get up and talk."

In the past two months, huge pressure was pressing on Mrs. Yu's head alone, making the mistress of the Pingnan Marquis' Mansion much haggard. When Li Yan came back, the Li family finally had a man who could take charge of the matter. Mrs. Yu felt much more relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief: "In the past two months, I don't know how I came here. It's good that the second uncle will come back. When the second uncle comes back, the Li family has a backbone who can take charge of the matter, and I won't have any idea."

Last time, Emperor Chengde punished the Pingnan Marquis's mansion very heavily. For a moment, Mrs. Yu didn't know what the emperor wanted to do. She was often trembling in the past two months, which was very difficult.

Li Yan lowered his head slightly and smiled, "The eldest brother has already told me about the matter in the capital. Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. With the eldest brother here, you will be as stable as Mount Tai in the capital, and nothing big will happen."

Mrs. Yu looked around and found that there were no outsiders, and whispered: "It's not that I'm worried about my own safety, but I'm just that I'm afraid that I'll drag down the Li family if I don't do good things. Then I'll be sorry for my ancestors."

Although Li Yan is also considered the son of the Li family, he is a moth after all. He is not easy to interrupt such a topic, so he just smiled faintly: "Mrs. Don't worry, my sister-in-law. I should always be working in the capital in the future and will not go back to southern Xinjiang. With me in the capital, everyone will take care of each other."

"With my second uncle in the capital, everything will naturally be peaceful."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Yu looked back at Li Chun who was following her and sighed with a little regret: "My son is too incompetent. Since my second uncle wants to be an official in the capital, he needs to help train and train."

Li Yan said calmly: "The little marquis is indeed a bit reckless in his actions. When I have time, I will teach him some principles for doing things."

Mrs. Yu nodded and smiled, "The food and drinks are ready at home. Let's go home soon and welcome the second uncle."

Li Yan lowered his head and nodded: "I'm Lady Lady."

The group entered the city from the south gate of the capital. After seeing Mrs. Yu come back, the people who are secretly following her are gone.

Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the gate of the Marquis of Pingnan. Li Yan looked up at the plaque of the Marquis of Pingnan and sighed a little: "I haven't been here for a long time."

He was adopted by Li Zhijie since childhood. When he was a child, he lived in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion in the capital for a period of time.

Mrs. Yu laughed and said, "Uncle Second, I will live here from now on."

"By the way, I don't know what official the court wants to grant the second uncle a title?"

Li Yan smiled indifferently.
