Counterattack of the Cannon Fodder Chambermaid

Chapter 422 King Jing Sees His Uncle (1)

When the Li family arrived, it was already late.

Originally, she wanted to rest for a day and come back tomorrow, but Aunt He was reluctant to part with the little money for accommodation, so she just pulled a passer-by by the side of the road to ask clearly.

Along the way, Aunt He realized why the passer-by had a strange look on her face. King Jing's Mansion is really easy to find. Most of the city is full of King Jing's Mansion, so just walk a little further and you will be there.

Before reaching the gate of the palace, they were stopped by a group of soldiers. The Li family couldn't help being in awe when they saw the soldiers with bright armor and strict discipline.

After explaining their purpose, one of the leading soldiers asked them to wait for a while, then turned and left, leaving the group of soldiers and guards to watch them.

A row of three dilapidated carriages, corresponding to this team of well-armored guards, looked really shabby.

Aunt He was sitting in the car, half-opening the curtain to look outside, and could vaguely see the towering city wall ahead.

My dear, is this the palace? How does it feel like a city!

After a while, the leading soldier just turned back, raised his hand, and a guard led the carriage forward, and stopped at the Zunyi Gate on the west side of the palace. After checking, the carriage continued on its way.

Not to mention Aunt He was surprised, even Li Xuebing was also extremely surprised. This is not a palace, it looks like a royal palace.

It's not that Li Xuebing didn't pay attention to this nephew, but because of some things that happened in the early years, he never had any contact with him.

Let's start from the very beginning. The Li family was not a wealthy family at first, and it was only after Li Xuebing passed the examination that he got an official position. The official position is not high, but he only served as the head of the county government in a small county in the south.

The chief secretary is the county magistrate's deputy, and he changes every three years in Shangfeng, but Li Xuebing has worked in this position for many years. Li Xuebing is an ambitious person, but his ambition can be supported by money and connections, but he has money and no connections, so he has to waste many years in this ninth-rank position.

Picked that year.

Whenever the news of the selection comes, the local people will set off a wave of marriage climax. Being selected as a maiden does not come to the palace to be a concubine to enjoy the blessings. Many of them enter the palace as servants of the palace to serve others, and once selected, it is difficult to leave the palace.

Even ordinary people are fleeing, but Li Xuebing is doing the opposite. He had other thoughts on his mind, and that thought was her sister Li Wanting.

From Li Xuebing's point of view, it was not a shameful thing to use a younger sister to gain a future. He never thought that if Li Wanting was not outstanding enough, she might not be chosen as a concubine, but as a palace man.

Fortunately, Li Wanting was indeed beautiful, so she was chosen as a concubine and earned the title of talented person.

After hearing the news, Li Xuebing was ecstatic, looking forward to his sister's good future for him. But one year passed, two years passed, and one year passed, and there was no movement at all. Li Xuebing was just the chief bookkeeper in a small county far away from the capital, how could he get in touch with the people in the palace, and the brother and sister broke off contact since then.

A few years later, it was suddenly rumored that the sage had a fifth prince, whose biological mother was a talented person, surnamed Li, who was later made a respectful concubine. This 'rumor' was learned from Li Xuebing's mouth when he discovered that Shangfeng was suddenly much kinder to him. At that time, Li Xuebing had already let go of his irrational thoughts, and was going to work honestly in the master book for the rest of his life, when suddenly a pie fell on his head.
