Chapter 470 The Heroine's Hateful Concubine's Sister Who Impersonated Her to Receive Credi
Rumors unfavorable to Li Lian began to appear in the mansion. Most of them suspected that Li Lian's good luck in saving the prince was not accidental at all, and that it must have been a premeditated plan for the position of Crown Princess.
Many maids and servants were talking about Li Lian's inappropriate behavior behind her back.
Obviously, he is the master who got a good marriage. If it were someone else, he would definitely reward everyone in the mansion.
I didn't expect Li Lian to be so stingy. The mistress of the house had already sent three thousand taels of silver, but she was still allowed to deduct all of it and give it away.
Li Lian inadvertently offended the maids and servants in the mansion.
At first, it was just the maids and servants in the mansion gossiping about each other, but as the situation developed, some rumors spread outside the Li Mansion, and there was a lot of discussion throughout the capital.
When Li Lian received the imperial decree to marry, she did not give any rewards to the maids and servants, and this matter became her criticism.
Others were saying that Li Lian was not worthy of being the Crown Princess, and all kinds of unpleasant things were said.
When Ah Zhi heard this, the situation had already become serious.
Bai Weixue was as steady as a rock. People outside were talking about Li Lian, not her precious daughter. The one who should be anxious was Li Qian.
But Li Qian was angry but helpless. He couldn't just go out and shut those people up.
He could only vent his anger on Li Lian and ordered people to watch her day and night and not let her leave the house to prevent even more unpleasant rumors from spreading.
Every three days, the children in the mansion would come to pay their respects to Bai Weixue.
Li Xuanyan appeared in the main courtyard early in the morning, before Bai Weixue could ask him how his studies were going.
Li Xuanyan spoke first, "Mother, do you know about my elder sister? There is a lot of discussion in the capital right now. They are all discussing that my elder sister is not worthy of the Crown Prince. Some people also mentioned that my elder sister is petty and not worthy of being on the stage."
"On the surface, the matter only involves my eldest sister, but my son believes that if one prospers, all prosper, and if one suffers, all suffer."
"If my elder sister becomes the Crown Princess, it will be good for our entire Li family. Now the rumors outside are not good for her, which is also not good for our Li family."
Different from Bai Weixue and Li Zhenzhu who dislike Li Lian, Li Xuanyan is a very sober person.
He is taciturn but extremely smart and knows how to act in order to protect himself.
In the plot, he clearly saw that Ren Liunian treated Li Lian differently.
I understand that although Ren Liunian is not nice to Li Lian, he actually has a place for her in his heart.
If Li Zhenzhu and Bai Weixue continue to target Li Lian, it is very likely to bring disaster.
For this reason, Li Xuanyan repeatedly persuaded Bai Weixue and Li Zhenzhu to stop, and also spoke up for Li Lian.
It’s a pity that for the sake of his beloved, Ren Liunian will not let go of anyone who has hurt Li Lian.
Even if Li Xuanyan did nothing, just because he is Bai Weixue's daughter and Li Zhenzhu's brother, he will be buried with her.
The young boy lost his life at an early age, and Bai Weixue smiled with tenderness.
"How do you know all this? Brat, these things have nothing to do with you, and they also have nothing to do with the other people in the Li Mansion."
"Li Lian's own misbehavior has offended the maids and servants in the mansion. What can we do?"
"Even if these maids and servants are ants, they should not be offended easily. Now that she has offended them, she must bear the consequences of offending them."
Sometimes even a tiny ant can shake an elephant.
Of course she had a way to help Li Lian out of trouble, but Bai Weixue was not that kind.
Li Xuanyan was still puzzled by Bai Weixue's answer. In his impression, Bai Weixue was omnipotent and his mother could solve any problem. How could something stump her?
He asked bluntly, "Isn't mother willing to help?"
Unexpectedly, Bai Weixue sighed with difficulty, and she sat in the chair and shook her head gently.
"Things are not as simple as you think. Li Lian has offended the maids and servants. These people can't control their mouths. Unless they are all beaten to death, how can we stop them from talking? How can you let me help?"
Beat to death?
There are more than a hundred people in the mansion.
If they were all beaten to death and their mouths were gagged, the blood would flow into a river.
Li Xuanyan frowned slightly, obviously disagreeing.
Bai Weixue knew her son's temperament well.
He is not a cruel person.
In fact, the matter is very simple. Find a servant who spreads rumors and make an example of him to scare the monkeys. Then take out the reward money to get rid of them one by one, and by the way, vilify the fact that Uncle Liu came to rob money.
Things will naturally find a way around it, and then it will not be Li Lian's trouble, but the trouble of the entire Liu family.
But does Li Lian dare?
Beating a servant to death would scare her to death, not to mention that her own grandparents' family would be implicated.
She certainly wouldn't have the heart to do that. Even if the idea was put before her, Li Lian would definitely not disagree.
So what if Li Qian is her husband? Li Lian is not her biological daughter.
Bai Weixue picked up the teacup and took a sip. At this time, Li Xuanyan became a little anxious.
"Isn't it just for the reward money? Why don't you let big sister give the reward money? If big sister doesn't have it, mother will give it to you."
"That's easy to say!"
Bai Weixue put the teacup down and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Do you really think it's a matter of reward? I gave her three thousand taels of silver at the beginning, and now I can't give it back. When I gave her three thousand taels of silver, I really told her to reward the servants."
"I never thought she would turn around and give it to Uncle Liu. Xuanyan, it's not that mother is stingy and doesn't want to help, it's really that I can't do anything. The mansion is no longer as good as before, and I have contributed a lot to the Li family."
"When the imperial decree for the marriage came down, I gave money to the people in the mansion as rewards. This is just enough to spare another three thousand taels of silver. It is impossible to ask for so much now. Your father does not agree."
The three thousand taels of silver given originally belonged to the Li family, and Bai Weixue would not use it to supplement her dowry.
Seeing her daughter and son growing up day by day, she will need to spend money on many occasions in the future, and she will not waste money.
Bai Weixue was also thinking about preparing a large dowry for her daughter when she got married.
There is also his only son. If Li Xuanyan wants him to get married and have children, he will need money for everything.
Seeing that Bai Weixue had no idea, Li Xuanyan gritted his teeth and was very conflicted.
Seeing that he was beginning to worry again, Bai Weixue couldn't help but persuade him, "Alright, stop worrying about it. Things have already happened. I don't think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would mind these little things. There are rumors coming out one after another."
"You are a joke in our family today, and a joke to others tomorrow. Don't worry too much about it."
Li Xuanyan knew that Bai Weixue was wrong, but he couldn't find any words to refute her.
Li Lian was rumored by the outside world to be petty and unworthy of Ren Liunian.
This has nothing to do with Bai Weixue. She has already managed her reputation well and doesn't need to care about being implicated.
