Chapter 152: Coming
Three days before the wedding, the Annam general Li Ling rushed back to Chang'an. From the promulgation of the decree to the day of marriage, it is only ten or half months, so it can be said that the time is very short, as if someone is afraid that something will happen to it. Li Ling's mind is full of Li Ying, from childhood to adulthood. Scene after scene was playing in his mind, Li Ling was ashamed, obviously he wanted to protect his sister well, why is it all the other way around now!
Li Ling, who was full of exhaustion, looked at the plaque in front of him with a heavy heart, protecting the Marquis Mansion.
Li Si beside him reminded softly, "Master, we have already arrived at the ground, and the porter has brought someone to welcome us, look, why don't you get off the horse first, freshen up and go to see Miss Li Ying?"
Li Ling came back to his senses and looked thoughtfully at the porter who came over. The current gatehouse is no longer the gatehouse that Li Dare was in charge of, and the current gatehouse is very bright.
"General Annan, it's been a long journey and a hard work", the porter nodded and bowed.
Li Ling bowed his head and strode towards the door of "home", presumably Li Ying had not received the news yet, Li Ling went directly to Li Ying's courtyard. Before entering the gate of the courtyard, I heard a burst of childish laughter.
It's been a long time since he's heard such a pleasant laugh, Li Ling stood outside the wall, looking in the direction of the room. Li Si didn't dare to remind rashly.
After a long time, Li Ling walked in with light steps.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a group of seven or eight-year-old girls playing games in the yard, and you chased me. And Li Ying watched the excitement in the gazebo on the side with relish. Li Ling still remembers this game, what is it called the eagle catching chickens, Li Ling smiled on his lips.
Lu Xue's eyes were sharp, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Li Ling, the general of Annan, and hurriedly reported to Li Ying.
Li Ying didn't believe it at first, but when he looked back, Li Ling was already in front of him. I thought he would come back the day after tomorrow.
"Why, don't you salute when you see your brother?" Li Ling said with a smile.
Li Ying smiled and punched Li Ling in the chest, and said in surprise, "Why did you rush back so early, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up!"
Hearing this, Li Ling pretended to have a sinking face, "What! I saw that you were sold by someone else, can you not rush back as soon as possible?" He took another deep breath, "As soon as I left with my front foot, the holy decree came down!" On the way, I went back and forth, and then explained the affairs of the army, and the time was really urgent. Even if Li Ling had the heart to intervene in Li Ying's marriage, he didn't have that time. It's really a good chess hand, the eldest brother can't count on it, and he is thousands of miles away.
Li Ying couldn't help pouting after hearing this, what could she do, would she rather be a broken jade than a complete tile! can only transfer Li Ling's resentment, and said with a smile, "Second brother, I have got a lot of things recently, and my eldest brother has made a lot of good things for me to press the bottom of the box." Even Liu Huan's kid's dowry, the eldest brother added them to my dowry list. Hahahaha, the joy also infected Li Ling.
Li Ling smiled helplessly, "You, you're just a little money fan." "My sister likes money, but this has not changed since she was a child. At least this marriage can bring substantial happiness to Li Ying. Li Ling looked into his sister's eyes and said very seriously, "Ying'er, if Liu Huan treats you badly in the future or you don't want to be with him, you can come to me, and I will unconditionally support you in any decision you make." ”
Right now, the slaves around him were far away, and Li Ling whispered in Li Ying's ear, "If you don't want to marry Liu Huan now, I'll take you away." Li Ling added earnestly, "Don't think about us, don't think about the Li family, just for yourself." ”
Li Ying was stunned for a moment, and the tears in his eyes had fallen without warning. This is his brother, this is his own brother. He told her to do what she wanted, ignore any factors, and live for herself.
Li Ling couldn't see the tears of women, especially his sister, and his heart was so soft. can only coax, "Don't cry, don't cry, others still think I'm bullying you when they see it!" I wanted to take out a clean handkerchief from my side, but because I was in a hurry, I was not familiar with it, and it was also unclean.
Fortunately, Li Ying had restrained herself, and that tear was gone. "Second brother, thank you, I'm fine now. After a pause, "Actually, it's not bad to marry Liu Huan, and Liu Huan is barely a childhood sweetheart, and he knows the roots." ”
Li Ling raised his eyebrows, just because he knew the roots, and he knew that Liu Huan was not a good match. Liu Huan, like Li Ling, went into battle to kill the enemy, and even said that Li Ling spent more time on the battlefield than Liu Huan. But in terms of the number of killings, Liu Huan has doubled several times compared to Li Ling. Once the success is done, the dry bones behind them are as high as a mountain, and he is not qualified to say anything about Liu Huan. But in the court, as long as Liu Huan goes to raid the house, there is nothing left of that family. In criminal matters, Liu Huan's methods are even more endless, which is terrifying. There was no prisoner who did not speak, but only begged Liu Hao to raise his noble hand.
Li Ying didn't see Li Ling's abnormality, and then said, "Besides, if you marry in the past, there will be no contradiction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and sister-in-law." I don't even have to worry about the wedding, my aunt is ready. Now, I'm the most idle person. ”
Li Ling was secretly thinking, what the sister said was reasonable, at least in this regard, Li Ying would not suffer. Even if Liu Huan makes a mistake in the future, they can persuade them.
Li Ying looked at his brother's loose face, and continued, "After marrying Liu Huan, I lived in Bowangyuan, only half an hour away from home, I was unhappy, so I went back to my parents' house, and Liu Huan was helpless!"
This time, Li Ling finally heard something satisfactory, and couldn't help nodding, "As long as Liu Huan has anything wrong with you, you just come back, and the eldest brother and I will make decisions for you." ”
"Uh-huh, Ying'er knows. Li Ying smiled and nodded.
Lu Xue, who was standing far away, frowned slightly, and when Li Si saw it, he asked "kindly", "Lu Xue girl, but where is it uncomfortable?"
Lu Xue smiled back, "Thank you for your concern." "She didn't want to cause more trouble.
Li Si instantly felt very bored. Didn't talk much about it either.
When the people returned to Liu Huan and Li Ling back, Liu Huan's face was expressionless. On the contrary, Lu Changqi, who was on the side, smiled knowingly, and Liu Huan glanced at him.
Lu Changqi is the "think tank" around Liu Huan, and he knows what his master thinks in his heart. The brother-in-law is very easy to deal with, but the brother-in-law is more difficult. He stroked his beard and coughed, "Now that General Annan is back, the little one will sort out the affairs of the wedding banquet again, and Rong Chen will retire." ”
Liu Huan waved his hand and motioned for him to step back. I thought to myself, this old fox.
