  Chapter 918 One Hundred and Seventeen Changes

  The second lady and the third lady looked at each other. Neither of them paid any attention to Mrs. Li, and ran out to meet their mother-in-law with the corners of their skirts.

   The mother-in-law was clearly fine, but Mrs. Li deliberately made the matter so serious. When the mother-in-law came back, they must talk to her mother-in-law about it.

  The two ran out, but they didn't see Aunt Zheng. They couldn't help but froze for a while. They looked at the maid with eyes beside Princess Mingchang, but didn't respond.

  The middle-aged servant girl nodded lightly to the second and third ladies and greeted politely.

   Mr. Li happened to have dismounted, and upon seeing this, he gave a light introduction to the second lady and the third lady: "This is Mrs. Qi from the palace. It was specially given to my mother by the saint to take care of her."

  The second lady and the third lady are a little stunned - Princess Mingchang has used Aunt Zheng for decades, and it is impossible for ordinary people to change the competent people around, let alone the eldest princess? The emperor gave a maid to the eldest princess, which seemed weird no matter how you looked at it.

   With this little surprise, when they went to see Princess Mingchang again, they saw that Princess Mingchang's face was blue and purple, even her lips were black, and her whole face was full of tiredness and anger.

When the mother-in-law is unhappy, she will show such a gloomy expression. The second and third ladies snorted and glanced at Mr. Li. The words of the complaint that had already reached her mouth could not be said, so I was busy. Li, and followed them into the mansion gate.

Regardless of them, Mr. Li took the lead and walked in the front, whispering something to Qi Momo from time to time. Qi Momo nodded and listened with a smile, with no impatience on her face. When she entered the courtyard of Princess Mingchang, Mrs. Li welcomed her. When she came up to see the salute, she smiled and turned to the side: "How can this be made? In the future, the eldest lady will be Mrs. Hou immediately. How can I salute the slaves and servants with the official life of Zheng Yipin?"

  What Madam Hou?

  The second lady and the third lady were even more at a loss, but she saw that Princess Mingchang was suddenly excited, and struggled and moved a few times on the Changchun bench.

   But she didn't say anything.

Qi Momo finished speaking with a smile, looked at Princess Mingchang and said softly: "Your Highness's blessing is to come, now that there are many children and grandchildren, it's time for you to be the old lady and enjoy the happiness. From now on, you will change your family, and the family will be supported by young people. You don’t have to work so hard anymore.”

   Mr. Li quietly lowered his head by the side, not looking into Princess Mingchang's eyes.

  The second lady and the third lady were completely shocked, and they didn't know what Qi Ma's words meant.

   What does it mean to change the door? !

   But their surprise didn't last long, because it didn't take long for Princess Mingchang to be carried in, and Eunuch Xia, who announced the decree in the palace, arrived.

   Mr. Li set the incense table and knelt down with everyone in the Li family to meet the imperial decree.

  The whole family was uneasy, but they didn't know what happened. Only Mr. Li kept kneeling silently.

Eunuch Xia read out the imperial edict, stretched out his hand to help Master Li up, and congratulated him with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, Master, oh no. Now it's time to call you Hou Huizhou. Congratulations, Lord Hexi, the original Hou If you inherit the title of Consort, you can be separated from the Princess Mansion, but the Holy Master is sympathetic to your filial piety, and will still allow you to serve and respect the Princess, just change the Princess Mansion to the Hou Mansion, that's all. I also ask Hou Ye to take care of himself, everything has to comply with the regulations."

There is no need to say it now. The second and third ladies also know what happened. They looked at Mr. Li and Mrs. Li in shock. There were thousands of thoughts and puzzles in their hearts. .

   Obviously, as Mrs. Li said, Emperor Yuanfeng really angered Princess Mingchang.

  Otherwise, even though Da Zhou has this rule, after the princess dies, the princess mansion will be taken back by the ancestral mansion, but... where else would the princess be changed to others while she was alive? !

   This is clearly a humiliation to Princess Mingchang, and she doesn't hesitate to slap Princess Mingchang in the face!

   Mr. Li did not have a look of joy on his face. He still greeted him respectfully and accepted the imperial decree. He gave Mrs. Li a wink and handed a thick red seal before turning around and sending Eunuch Xia out.

   As soon as Eunuch Xia left, the house exploded.

  Li Jinniang hurried to her mother and grabbed her arm.

   Mrs. Li tilted her head to look at her and nodded lightly.

  The second lady and the third lady were in a mess, so she had to go in and see Princess Mingchang.

  At this time, they should have started to say how bad Mrs. Li was, but now, they didn't know what to say to the smiling faces of Princess Mingchang and Grandma Qi.

   Princess Mingchang had no intention of talking to them at all. She blushed with a sigh of relief, pointed to the second lady and said in a hoarse voice, "Go and call the eldest daughter-in-law to Ben Gong!"

  The second lady turned her head and left, and Mrs. Li was just about to enter the door. She was not surprised at all when she saw this. She quickly entered the door and walked over to Princess Mingchang and bowed: "Mother."

  Princess Mingchang was suddenly furious, reached out and picked up the medicine bowl on the side and slammed it towards Mrs. Li: "Poison woman! Poison woman! You want to kill Ben Gong, you instigate the boss to kill Ben Gong!"

  The second lady and the third lady took a step back in fright. They were used to seeing Princess Mingchang's aloof appearance, but they had never seen Princess Mingchang so hysterical.

Mrs. Li didn't dodge or evade, let the medicine bowl fall on her body, and wiped the medicine on her body unhurriedly, then she raised her eyebrows and looked at Princess Mingchang and said softly: "What did the mother say? The daughter-in-law can't listen. I understand, why would your daughter-in-law want to harm you? The second and third younger siblings are here. The daughter-in-law has provoked the eldest master about something and wants to harm you. If you think your daughter-in-law is wrong, you can ask the second and third siblings to listen. , If they feel that it is really my fault, they can go to the old Li family to open an ancestral hall and leave me."

   She was silent, her tone was soft, but her words were full of vigour, without any intention of evasion. It could be called a tit-for-tat confrontation. The second lady and the third lady couldn't say a word, and she didn't know how to react.

  Mother Qi sighed softly on the side: "Your Highness, the imperial doctor said that your heart disease is the most taboo to get angry, so don't get excited!"

Princess Mingchang's chest rose and fell violently, her whole body was about to faint, she pointed her finger at Mrs. Li who was standing beside the bed, and glared at her word by word: "Mister Xiong, Ben Gong remembers it! This palace remembers it!"

   Mrs. Li's face was expressionless, and she greeted Princess Mingchang's gaze and said, "Don't worry, mother, and daughter-in-law won't dare to forget."
