Li Hanlin originally wanted to secretly kill that bastard who dared to steal his sister from the heir, but he could not do anything about his sister being stubborn and refusing to eat. She said that if he died, she would die. She wanted to be a pair of lovebirds. After much persuasion, he finally persuaded her. Li Hanlin did not dare to kill that fellow and secretly made things difficult for him. God knew that the more the scholar was defeated, the braver he became. Even Li Gongde, who was still the Provincial Governor of Feng Province at the time, had a whole new level of respect for him. He privately weighed the pros and cons with his wife and thought that it would be better to let him go than to block him. It was better to treat him like raising a dog to guard the door outside. After a few operations, he first raised the scholar's family rank, and then had him become a minor official. When Li Gongde became the Administrator, his chickens and dogs rose to the heavens. The scholar also went from being a minor official to an official. Officials and officials, the difference of one word was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Later on, when Hsu Fengnian returned from his travels, he left Liangzhou on his white horse. Since then, he no longer had any contact with this woman, who did not like men's appearance and only liked talent and learning.
She was happy that she did not see, her heart did not feel troubled. She wished that the Heir would never return to the Li mansion for the rest of his life.
The crossbowmen who had gone through fire and water with him strode into the mansion. Li October and the other two did not flinch. Li Gongde, who had long cultivated a pair of discerning eyes, was very good at reading people. Seeing them, not only was he not angry, he was very gratified. In the end, the military could train people. These brothers that his son had made friends with would be the backbone of Beiliang in the future.
Li Hanlin greeted the elders of the mansion. After bathing and changing his clothes, he ate fiercely with Lu Dou and the other two. When his wife saw that her son, who liked to pick fat and thin, did not leave a single grain of rice behind and finished three big bowls of white rice, she felt a wave of sadness. She sat next to her son and looked at him carefully. No matter how much she looked, she could not get enough of him. She muttered to herself, "You've become tanned and have lost a lot of weight. You have to stay for a few more days. If the army urges you, your father won't dare to plead with the King of Beiliang. Mother will go!"
Except for the mute Lu Dou, Li Hanlin put many dishes into Li October and Fang Hutou's chopsticks. He made a funny face and joked, "Mother, military law is like a mountain. Don't blindly join in the fun. A loving mother makes a useless son, do you know that?"
His wife glared at him and said, "How can a loving mother give birth to a useless son? Who dares to call my son a useless son? Mother will slap him in the face!"
The Administrator stroked his beard and laughed, "That's reasonable, that's reasonable."
After the sumptuous banquet, Li Gongde and his wife were tactful. Although they had a thousand things to say in their hearts, they still restrained themselves from disturbing the young people.
In a pavilion with a raised eave, Fang Hutou was led to turn here and there under the guidance of others. When he came back, he clicked his tongue in wonder and said, "Chief Biao, even the outhouse in your house is spacious and luxurious. You have to find me a big bed to sleep on so that I can tell the villagers when I go home."
"Look at you!"
Li October picked up a grape and threw it at him. Fang Hutou smiled and held it in his mouth. Li October threw it again, but it was like walking a dog. Fang Hutou didn't care and played with it happily.
Lu Dou cursed with a calm voice, "You two idiots."
Li Fuzhen sat quietly and virtuously to the side, watching with her mouth agape.
Of course, she didn't know that in Beimang, Fang Hutou had blocked a sharp knife that was comparable to Beiliang's knife. In a moment of desperation, Li October had used her hand to deflect several arrows for Fang Hutou. One of the arrows had pierced his palm.
Li Fuzhen did not know what kind of price the crossbowmen had paid as the vanguard scouts traveled north and uprooted the beacons one after another.
Li Hanlin suddenly turned to look at Li Fuzhen and asked, "Sister, do you still like that poor scholar?"
Li Fuzhen's expression was somewhat unnatural. Li Hanlin didn't want to embarrass his sister and smiled sincerely, "Sister, as long as you don't regret it."
Li Fuzhen, who felt very unfamiliar, didn't know how to respond.
Li Hanlin looked out of the pavilion. "I didn't have the right to say anything before, but now it's a bit better. That scholar is very scheming. Two years ago, I thought so, and now it's even more so. After all, I'm a bad person myself, and I'm always very good at judging bad people. But since you insist on liking him, I can't do anything more. But if you miss out on Brother Feng, sister, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. "
Li Fuzhen slowly lowered her head. Two slender fingers twirled the corner of her skirt and asked, "Because he might become King of Beiliang?"
Li Hanlin suddenly laughed and said, "Pretend I didn't say anything."
Li Fuzhen looked at her brother who was going to arm wrestle with Fang Hutou and felt very lost. She said goodbye and left the pavilion.
Li Gongde came to a place far away from the pavilion and stood very far away.
Lu Dou kicked Li Hanlin, who was busy competing with Fang Hutou. Li Hanlin jogged to his father and said with a laugh, "Father, what's the matter? Could it be that his mother is controlling him too tightly, and he wants money from me, her son, to drink wine with his colleagues? How much do you want? Don't even think about a few thousand taels. I don't even have a hundred taels left in my pocket. Father, how are you going to spend it? "
Li Gongde cursed the brat and slowly walked away.
Li Hanlin hesitated for a moment and waved his hand at Lu Dou and the other two. He ran to catch up and put his arm around his father's shoulder. He walked with this old man who had been scolded countless times in Beiliang but was still the most indomitable and heroic man in Li Hanlin's heart. However, he made a gesture of raising his head and raising his cup to drink wine. He smiled, unable to change his nature, and said with a smile, "Father, I've earned some money. It's not much, but I have to show my filial piety to you. How about the two of us go drink a few catties of green ants?"
On this day, in an elegant little restaurant not far from the Li family's mansion in the city, the Administrator and his son, who was a crossbowman and the chief of the crossbowmen, spent only a few dozen taels of silver, including wine and meat.
In those years, this son often stole thousands of taels of silver from places that the old man deliberately hid. He spent a lot of money in Liangzhou or Lingzhou, but Li Gongde didn't feel any heartache.
Even earlier, in order to get a bigger official's hat, he used chests and chests of gold and silver. Li Gongde didn't feel any heartache.
On this day, he only spent a few dozen taels of silver, but the old man's heart was already pained.
