For more than ten years, Aunt Liu has been living in seclusion.

Xiao Bi has been a restless person since she was a child. He doesn't have many interactions with her and doesn't know much about her past.

She only knew that Aunt Liu's family had been poor since she was a child, and she was sold by her parents into the Duke's Mansion when she was eight years old.

As for how she became Xiao Guogong's concubine, and why she would rather live in a remote courtyard than please Xiao Guogong, Xiao Bi really didn't know.

But it was not easy to ask this kind of question face to face. It was not until Aunt Liu was sent away that she asked Mama Bei about it.

In the past, Bei's mother would not have been willing to talk to her about these things.

Now that Xiao Bi knew all the dirty things Xiao Guogong had done in the past, and he would soon move out of the Duke's mansion, Bei's mother naturally no longer had any scruples.

She patted Xiao Bi's hand and sighed: "Aunt Liu is a hard-working person. She was sold into the Duke's Mansion by her parents when she was very young.

She was pretty and hard-working. After entering the mansion, she went to wait on the old lady in her yard.

After the old lady passed away, the eldest lady happened to lack someone to help her, so she and the other two maids were left behind.

When Aunt Liu was sixteen, the situation at home improved and her parents found a marriage for her.

The eldest lady was very happy when she learned about this. Not only did she not ask her parents to spend any money to redeem her life, but she also prepared a lot of dowry for her.

It’s a pity that all this was destroyed in the hands of the Duke.”

Xiao Bi's stomach was churning.

Before Mother Bei had time to tell the details, she could imagine what unworthy things her father had done back then.

A good young girl, her parents even found a husband for her, but her hopes and life were ruined.

Mother Bei said: "I hadn't come to the Duke's Mansion at that time, so I only heard these things from the third lady and the fourth old lady.

After the prince was born, some things happened, and the relationship between the eldest lady and the prince became worse and worse.

The Duke of Guo tried all kinds of methods, but could not coax the eldest lady to change her mind.

With his status as the Duke of the country, there were countless maids in the mansion who were watching him, but he wanted to harm Aunt Liu who was about to leave the mansion to get married.

Aunt Liu's heart has been dead since then. If she hadn't had the third girl, how could she still be alive today?"

Xiao Bi took a few deep breaths and used a lot of strength to suppress her anger.

In the eyes of powerful men, what do women really mean?

As long as they need it, they can even be reduced to playthings for their wives to be angry with.

As for why the relationship between her father and mother deteriorated after her second brother was born, she didn't want to know at all.

How can you expect a person who treats being dirty as a habit to do good things?

Bei’s mother said: “It’s been so many years, I just sighed behind my back.

Although the Duke's Mansion is not like other mansions, the aunts still have to rely on men if they want to live a good life.

Aunt Liu was unwilling to please the Duke of Guo, but the Duke of Guo was not willing to give in, so she soon left her behind.

If the eldest lady hadn't always taken care of them, mother and daughter, and even brought the third girl to teach her personally, how could they be where they are today."

Xiao Bi sneered and said: "Fortunately, he can't stay in this house for more than a few days, otherwise I would really be unable to control myself and beat him ten times a day!"

Mother Bei stroked her back: "Forget it, it's not worth getting angry for someone like him, our good life will still last.

When the heat of the summer subsides, go and invite the old man back to your house, and let him enjoy a few years of happiness."

"I have to remember this carefully. My grandfather hasn't been back to the capital for many years."

"Don't you have to get up early tomorrow? Hurry up and go to bed." Mother Bei stood up and cleaned up the leftover snacks she had eaten.

"I still have to tell Qingzhao and the others to pack their luggage." Xiao Bi responded and followed her out of the wing.

Early the next morning, Xiao Bi arrived at the primary school on time.

After not seeing each other for nearly two months, the forty members of Qilin Guard have changed a lot.

Xiao Bi originally thought that not more than half of the people would be able to stay.

Unexpectedly, not only did they persevere, but each one of them also became more capable and neat, as if they were a new group of people compared to before.

After a brief lecture, more than 40 people got on the horse together.

With the Mo Qi team in front and the Chi Lin team behind, the group left the small school grounds in an orderly manner and went straight to the North City Gate.

After leaving the city gate, Huan Ji pulled the reins of his horse and approached Xiao Bi.

"Captain Xiao, what do you think?"

Seeing his triumphant look, Xiao Wei couldn't help laughing.

This guy is still as shapeless as before, but as long as he is around, there will be no shortage of joy.

"Vice Captain Huan is referring to..." Xiao Bi pretended not to understand, with a confused look on her face.

Huan Ji rolled his eyes at her: "You went out with my brother, how come you became like him.

Take a look at our team members, have they changed a lot?"

Xiao Bi curled her lips: "It's a mule or a horse that has to be dragged to the battlefield for a walk. What's the use of just looking good?"

"Captain, why do you pour cold water on us as soon as you return to the team?"

"Captain, we don't like staying in that small school grounds either. Why don't you take us to Yanmen County to fight with the Beirong people?"

"team leader……"

At some point, Xie Yuan and others had gathered around, expressing dissatisfaction in all directions.

Xiao Bi chuckled and said: "Hey, haven't seen each other for a few days, one or two of you will have your tails raised to the sky?

There are several small hunting grounds near the palace. Although they cannot be compared with the royal hunting grounds in Qiu Shou, they are still enough for you to display your skills.

When my captain reports to Your Majesty, I will take you hunting every day, and if your results are too bad, I will throw you into the lake to drink cold water!"

When the young men heard that they were going hunting every day, they immediately became excited.

Zhao Jun still did not change his old habit of talking big and took the opportunity to say: "Captain, what if our results are very good?"

Xie Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "Ajun, are you really planning to fight the Beirong people?"

Zhao Jun said: "Is this false? Isn't it that we train hard just to serve the imperial court?

The Beirong people often harass the borders of the Wei Dynasty, making it difficult for the people to live in peace, so we should take up our swords and guns and drive them away to ensure the peace and tranquility of the Wei Dynasty!"

Before he finished speaking, everyone was already laughing.

It's not that what he said was ridiculous, but after having been together for such a long time, everyone knew for the first time that Mr. Zhao of the Linjiang Marquis Mansion actually had such lofty ambitions.

Xiao Bi solemnly nodded: "I agree, captain. As long as your cavalry shooting can surpass mine, I will immediately write a letter of recommendation and let you go to Yanmen County to serve the country!"

Everyone laughed again.

Zhao Jun's boxing skills are okay, his riding skills are just mediocre, but his shooting skills are the worst.

After practicing for such a long time, he has never hit the target once. Even the fair-faced scholar like Hua Shizi is better than him.
