Chapter 76

Min Li handed over the engagement gift that Ying Huaizhen gave to Xiao Tang, and waited beside her to see what it was, but saw Xiao Tang slowly open the small wooden box, and suddenly saw that there was a sachet inside, which was thinly tied with concentric knots, but the sachet was made of brown and gold satin, embroidered with a stalk and lotus flower.

When Min Li saw it, she immediately exclaimed, "This embroidered is good, it's even better than my one......" As she spoke, her eyes lit up, and she was very possessive.

Xiao Tang was taking it out to take a closer look, and when he heard the words, he snorted, "You want this?"

Minli suddenly woke up to the embroidery on it was a double lotus and pedicle pattern, naturally Ying Huaizhen because of his brother's engagement, so he deliberately embroidered it to show joy and auspiciousness, but he was unavoidable, so he secretly smiled, no longer made a sound, but still looked.

Xiao Tang also looked at it, and didn't say anything, Min Li couldn't help but praise: "This girl's embroidery is better than before, if it weren't for this pattern, I would definitely grab it." ”

Xiao Tang smiled: "What did you love before, you were afraid that I would rob you, but now you want to rob me? ”

Min Li said: "Where I like the new and hate the old, I want the old too, and this one too...... Besides, my brother is also stained with my light! Not a while ago, I talked to Huaizhen and said that you also like my sachet, she must have been careful, so she made this for you, if I hadn't said it, where would you have gotten this?"

Xiao Tang smiled, raised it up and sniffed, with a slight surprise on his face, Min Li looked at it, and asked, "What's wrong?" also came over and sniffed it, and suddenly wondered: "Why is it not so fragrant?"

Xiao Tang opened the top, and with a flick of his fingers, he pulled out a small gray-brown round cake from it, only a little bigger than his thumb, and it was vaguely on it, as if there were some lines, and the whole body looked plain, and there was no particularly strange smell when smelling, only a faint trace of aroma, but he couldn't tell what the fragrance was.

Min Li's eyes widened, and she said, "Why does this look gray, if it is a fragrant cake, it has no aroma? If not, why is it in this incense bag? It seems that it is not as good as mine." ”

Xiao Tang couldn't see what it was, but since it was in the sachet, it was probably a fragrant cake, so he said: "In the end, it is that child's mind, but this handiwork is enough for her to be busy for a while." ”

Min Li nodded and said, "That handiwork is indeed excellent...... I see that there are also patterns on this cake, but I can't see it vaguely, this girl is a ghost, and I want to ask her what she gave another day?"

Xiao Tang smiled: "Don't ask her again, just because you said more, I want her to bother to do this...... Besides, I don't like these incense and the like, this one is light, but I like it. ”

When Min Li heard this, she also pursed her lips and smiled: "It can be seen that there is a return for everything, could it be that Huaizhen knows what you mean and understands that you don't love those strong fragrances, so you deliberately made this light fragrance?"

Xiao Tang said: "That girl is tight, it may not be impossible. ”

Min Li smiled: "It's just that she's sick, but where did she get this again, just for this...... But you have exhausted yourself and become sick?"

When Xiao Tang heard this, he also smiled, and both of them thought it was just a joke, so they didn't take it to heart.

After gossiping with each other, Xiao Tang brought his own box and went back to the room.

Xiao Tang went back to the bedroom, and was opening the box and holding the sachet to look at it, when his mother sent someone to call him again.

Xiao Tang put down the sachet and went to his mother's room to talk for a while before coming back, and after bathing and changing, it was not too early, so he rested.

Early the next morning, Xiao Tang suddenly heard the crisp birdsong outside the window, like singing, and the nose faintly smelled as if there was a fragrance, as if there was nothing, he opened his eyes, but the fragrance was instantaneous, Xiao Tang only felt in a good mood for no reason, so he got up and freshened up.

When he turned around, he suddenly saw that the sachet on the table was still there, Xiao Tang picked it up and looked at it, just because he didn't like to wear these things since he was a child, and saw that the embroidery was so exquisite, he was afraid that he would break it or lose it without paying attention.

At the end of the year, things were messy after all, Xiao Tang wanted to find an opportunity to see how Ying Huai was really sick, but whether it was the Ministry of Rites or the family, everything was entangled, and he couldn't take care of it for a while, and he thought that she was just a child who occasionally felt cold, and many people took care of her, so it was naturally okay, so he forgot about it.

In addition, Mrs. Tang also caught a cold for some reason and coughed for several days, Minli served every day and was not allowed to go out.

In this way, until the end of the year, things finally lightened, Mrs. Tang's illness gradually improved, and on the evening of this day, at the family banquet, Xiao Tang and the men of the same clan ate a few glasses of wine, and then came out to breathe.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of talking under the corridor, Xiao Tang walked away, looked up, and saw that it was two sons and nephews in the same clan, one called Tang Sen, and the other called Tang Shao, who were the sons of his eldest brother and second brother, who were standing and talking.

Seeing this, Xiao Tang was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly heard Tang Sen say, "...... Is that the girl who told me to send a message to my aunt and grandmother last time?"

Tang Shao said: "Naturally, it's her, my aunt and grandmother like her very much, you've seen it too, dare you forget?"

Tang Sen smiled and said: "Such a beautiful girl, where did you forget? There were so many sisters and sisters here at that time, none of them were born better than her, but they were born with a temperament and were very quiet, and it was strange that Aunt Dao and grandmother loved her more than their own children." ”

Tang Shao said: "I say yes, unless you are blind, you don't remember her." ”

Tang Sen laughed again and said, "I'm not blind, but I know that I look at it in vain, where is it like you, who always thinks about people?"

Tang Shao coughed and said, "What nonsense!"

Tang Sen lowered his voice a little lower, and said, "How is it nonsense? I didn't care about what Pei said to me, but who knew that you heard it, so you hurriedly pulled me to fly home, I asked you what was wrong, you only prevaricated and said that you were in a hurry to ask your aunt and grandmother for peace, although you were respectful, but you were not as eager to ask for peace as that day, and it wasn't for me to bring her a message? What a coincidence, but she was very strict with her illness that time, and I only knew it later...... They didn't take her illness to heart, thanks to her aunt and grandmother...... Take a step back, isn't it thanks to you for the fact that you hurriedly dragged me to tell my aunt and grandmother?"

Tang Shao listened to him and said it very clearly, so he smiled and said: "It's been so long in the past, you still remember it! How good it is to be so careful about other things, so that your uncle won't always scold you." ”

Tang Sen smiled: "I'm just sorry for you, you are so concerned about others, but people don't know anything about it......"

Tang Shao shouted again: "You want to die!

Tang Sen said: "If it's really me talking nonsense, why is she sick recently, you will be sad all day long, just want to find an excuse to go to their house to see her......! Last time, I ...... in Shangwu Hall"

Speaking of this, it suddenly stopped, and it turned out that Tang Shao covered Tang Sen's mouth.

Xiao Tang didn't care at first, but then he heard them talk about "that girl", and after listening to a few words, he realized that they were talking about Ying Huaizhen.

Listening to Tang Sen's words, Tang Shao was worried about Ying Huaizhen, and he couldn't help but be surprised, surprised, but also a little secretly laughing: After all, the children are all older, and even their nephews have begun to "toss and turn, and they are eager to beg for it", but they don't blame them for this, after all, Ying Huaizhen is getting bigger and bigger, and he is so out of the way that people will never forget, and it is also human nature to give birth to the heart of "Mu Shaoai".

However, Tang Shao and Tang Sen had some stories in their words that he didn't know, so Xiao Tang never left, just listened in a daze.

Who knew that when he heard this, suddenly Tang Sen stopped, and then Tang Shao turned out from behind the corridor, and when he saw Xiao Tang here, he was first startled, and then he hurriedly stood up and saluted, and bowed respectfully: "Third uncle." ”

Townsend laughed to himself over there and said, "You're too careful...... Who else can't hear it?"

Before he could say a word, he heard Tang Shao shouting "Third Uncle", which frightened Tang Sen, and quickly ran out, stood beside Tang Shao, and saluted Xiao Tang.

Xiao Tang saw that the two little ones were quite frightened, so he deliberately smiled: "I just came out, and I heard someone talking over there...... It's the two of you, what are you talking about?"

When Tang Sen heard this, he secretly looked at Tang Shao, but Tang Shao said: "Back to the third uncle, it's nothing more than talking about some things in school, and there is nothing else ......."

After saying something with his head half-bowed, he glared at Tang Sen fiercely, and Tang Sen secretly stuck out his tongue, smiled and bowed his head silently.

Xiao Tang looked at it seriously for a while, and saw that Tang Shaosheng was a talent, because he had been on an errand in the Golden Imperial Court recently, he became more and more heroic, and his spirit was flying, and Xiao Tang often heard people praise his nephew, but he knew that what he said was true.

Xiao Tang only smiled and said: "You are free to talk, but don't talk about other people's gossip at will, it's okay at home, if you listen to people outside, even if you have good intentions, someone will tell you that you don't know what it looks like, isn't it bad?"

Tang Shao was extremely alert, and his heart was pounding, but he hurriedly lowered his head and said more and more respectfully: "The third uncle's teachings and nephews have already known, and they will definitely remember it in their hearts in the future, and they will no longer shout loudly." ”

Xiao Tang saw that he was really sensible, so he smiled and nodded, and turned to leave.

The remaining two teenagers stood in place, you look at me, I look at you, for a while, Tang Sen asked in disbelief: "You say...... What did the third uncle hear?"

Tang Shao didn't know at first, but then he heard Xiao Tang half-vaguely remind him, and he understood that Xiao Tang had heard it.

Hearing Tang Sen ask like this at this moment, he was so angry that he stretched out his hand and slapped him on the shoulder, and said, "I tell you not to talk nonsense, if you dare to say a word about Shangwutang in the future...... See how I kill you......"

Tang Sen deliberately smiled: "Okay, I won't say it, I'll only talk about things outside the Shangwu Hall, and I should ...... it."

The word "Ying" pulled a long sound, and before he finished speaking, Tang Shao had already jumped up and clamped Tang Sen's neck tightly with his elbow, Tang Sen couldn't continue, only screamed "hey, hey", and shouted while sticking out his tongue and rolling his eyes: "Brother Shao, just spare me! Don't dare to say it again!"

said that Xiao Tang left the two of them, and faintly heard the commotion behind him, so he only smiled, and secretly sighed that he was young and crazy after all.

He naturally knew what the allusion to the "Shangwutang" that the two of them said, and naturally said that Ying Huaizhen disguised herself as a man and went to Shangwutang that day and led Li Huo Tangshao to fight.

Just because this matter is related to their reputation, everyone in the Ying Mansion does not know anything except the person concerned, and does not mention a word, as for Li Huo Tangshao, who knows the inside story, he also tacitly refuses to say it.

It's just that Tang Sen was also present that day, and he also saw Ying Huaizhen on Mrs. Pingjing's side, of course he knew it, but the children of the Tang family also knew the severity, and Tang Shao had told him thousands of times, so how could he talk nonsense about these things to the outside.

It's just because Tang Sen knew Tang Shao's thoughts, and deliberately took it out to make fun of him, but Xiao Tang heard it again.

That night, Xiao Tang went back to the house, sat on the edge of the bed and thought about it, got up and took out the box again, took the sachet in his hand and looked at it for a while, and said in his heart: "Listening to Shao'er and them before, it seems that Huai Zhen is still sick yet, why is he still sick for so long?"

I only hate how busy he is, and now Huaizhen is also getting older, if he comes directly to the door and says that he wants to see her with bare eyebrows and white eyes, but it is a little undecent, he has to find an excuse.

What's more, because of the incident in Shangwutang, King Xi went to the Ying Mansion by the way, which caused a dark tide in the capital to be surging in private, and King Su and the prince were immediately like great enemies, thinking that King Xi had begun to make friends with the ministers...... If he goes more often, the two sides don't know what to think.

Xiao Tang thought about it for a long time, and finally suppressed his thoughts and gradually fell asleep.

A few days later, Xiao Tang came out of the Ministry of Rites, rode home, and was crossing Chang'an Street, when he suddenly saw a horse galloping through the street in front of him.

Xiao Tang immediately recognized that the person on the horse was Guo Jianyi, and he was about to say hello, but Guo Jianyi didn't stop and went very quickly.

Xiao Tang was surprised, beat the horse twice, went out of the street and looked to the right, but saw Guo Jianyi's horse stop at an inn in front of him, he turned over and dismounted like a whirlwind, stroked his robe, and walked quickly into the building.

Xiao Tang became more and more surprised, it turned out that he had vaguely heard about it in the past few days, saying that Guo Jianyi had asked the Ministry of Industry for a few days off, but he didn't know what he was busy with, he also inquired, but he heard that Guo Jianyi had been busy all over Jiucheng recently, and it was said that he was looking for someone!

Because this matter has nothing to do with him, Xiao Tang didn't dig into it, but today he suddenly bumped into it, his heart moved, and he stopped watching for a while, but he didn't go home, only hit the horse and went to the inn.

Xiao Tang arrived at the inn, and before he got off the horse, he heard Guo Jianyi shouting, "No!" There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.

When Xiao Tang heard this, he was even more stunned: I think Guo Jianyi has always acted calmly and abnormally, why is he a little irritable this time?

Before Xiao Tang got off the horse, he saw Guo Jianyi go and return, and hurriedly came out of the inn with his legs raised.

At the same time, Xiao Tang tilted his head slightly and looked at the situation in the inn behind Guo Jianyi: he saw that there were two people in it holding a middle-aged scribe dressed in cotton clothes.

Xiao Tang vaguely felt that the detained person was a little familiar, but Guo Jianyi had already stepped forward, had already cleaned up his expression, and saluted: "I didn't expect to meet Tang Shilang here." ”

Xiao Tang smiled and said, "What is Lord Guo doing here?"

Guo Jianyi's gaze swept back, and then he said, "It's just a little private matter, not a business trip." ”

Xiao Tang knew that he was cautious, and saw that he was a little precautionary, so he didn't want to stay, so he said: "Since that's the case, I won't bother Master Guo, and I'll see you another day." ”

The horse had to walk a few steps, and suddenly heard Guo Jianyi shouting behind him: "Lord Tang, please stay!"

Xiao Tang was stunned, grabbed the reins of the horse, turned around from the horse, but saw Guo Jianyi catch up with two steps, and said, "The lower official has an urgent matter that I want to ask Lord Tang......

When Xiao Tang saw him like this, and saw people coming and going on the street, he said, "This is not the place to speak. Turning over and dismounting, the two of them still went back to the inn and picked up a room where no one sat down.

Except for the two people in the house, there was no one else, Guo Jianyi still hesitated a little in his heart, but since he stopped the person, there was no way to retreat, and immediately said: "Lord Tang also saw the person I asked, I don't know if you feel a little familiar?"

Xiao Tang saw that he really got straight to the point, so he said: "It seems like I've seen it somewhere, but it's not ......"

Guo Jianyi turned his heart sideways, and said: "Didn't the adults forget? The two people I met at the gate of the mansion when the adults sent Huaizhen back to the house a few years ago?"

Xiao Tang Mao suddenly opened his mouth and said, "It turned out to be them! Could it be that the person Lord Guo has come to look for in the past two days is them? But I don't know why?"

Guo Jianyi sighed and said, "Don't hide it, these two people are not the officials who are looking for them, they are...... It was Huaizhen who told me to look for it. ”

When Xiao Tang heard this, his heart was shocked, and his eyes changed a little, so he said, "This is ...... What does that mean?"

Guo Jianyi said: "I don't know how it is, it's just ...... I also asked Huaizhen why she was looking for these two people, and she only said...... It's a matter of life and death. ”

When Xiao Tang heard this, he was speechless for a long time, Guo Jianyi smiled bitterly, and said, "I'm afraid that Lord Tang will definitely disagree? I thought the same way at first...... It's just that since years ago, Huaizhen was sick, and until now he is still bedridden, I was really anxious, so I simply took a leave of absence in the Ministry of Industry and concentrated on finding people for her, but unfortunately I searched almost all over the nine cities, and found no less than 100 people, but I never found those two ...... after all."

When Guo Jianyi said this, he secretly hated, clenched his hands into fists, lightly paused on the table, and said: "I heard that Lord Tang was also present at the time, and Huaizhen was sick again...... So that's why ......"

When Xiao Tang heard this, he understood why Guo Jianyi stopped him, if it wasn't for Ying Huai's real illness, and Guo Jianyi really had nothing to do, with his heart, how could he tell him the truth?

Suddenly, Xiao Tang thought again: He was the one who met those two people that day, if Ying Huaizhen wanted to find someone, why didn't he ask him to look for him, but called Guo Jianyi instead?...... If he remembers correctly, Guo Jianyi happened to be absent from Beijing in those days. What does it mean that Ying Huaizhen would rather "seek the near and far"?

In an instant, Xiao Tang was silent on his face, and thousands of thoughts had already turned in his heart.

Immediately, Xiao Tang said: "I've been busy these days, and I'm ...... There were some taboos, so I didn't go to the house...... How did Xiao Huaizhen get sick?

Guo Jianyi said: "Why didn't you invite it? However, Imperial Doctor Su said that the illness was not caused by the body...... Although I come to check the recuperation every day, you can ...... But after all...... "Because I was so worried, I couldn't even say it at the moment."

Xiao Tang saw that Guo Jianyi was a little out of shape, and his heart tightened, so he said, "Lord Guo, can you take me into the mansion to see Huaizhen?"

Guo Jianyi was silent for a moment, relieved his heart, and nodded slightly.

The two of them got out of the inn, both got on the horse and came to the Ying Gongfu, and after getting off the horse, they didn't call it a report, and went directly to the inner house.

Because Guo Jianyi is a relative in the house and often comes and goes, he ignores the door, so he arrived at the east courtyard very quickly.

Li Xianshu was also at home, talking to the maid Ruyi, Ruyi had tears in the corners of her eyes, and suddenly the little girl said that her cousin was here, and Ruyi hurriedly wiped away her tears and stepped aside.

Because Guo Jianyi has always come recently, Li Xianshu is also used to it, but when she saw Guo Jianyi enter the door, there was a person behind her, very rich and magnificent...... Li Xianshu was taken aback, and Guo Jianyi said: "Cousin-in-law, don't panic, I met Tang Shilang on the road, and he was worried about Huaizhen's illness, so I came to take a look." ”

Li Xianshu saw that it was Xiao Tang, and her heart settled down, so she had to say, "Why is even Lord Tang alarmed?"

Having said that, I also know that there is a lot of difference between Xiao Tang and Huaizhen, not to mention that Huaizhen was rescued by him from the kidnapper at the beginning, and later after going to Beijing, it is also related to their Tang family, so Li Xianshu saw Xiao Tang, but she was also a little relieved in her heart.

At that moment, the two of them entered the inner room, and when they entered, they smelled the medicinal gas all over the room, and there was a faint touch of incense.

Guo Jianyi took a step forward, and saw Ying Huaizhen lying with his eyes closed, his face as white as paper, but he still did not get better.

Xiao Tang only heard that Ying Huaizhen had been seriously ill before, and he also alarmed Mrs. Pingjing to come, but he didn't know the truth, and he hadn't seen Ying Huaizhen seriously ill with his own eyes.

Xiao Tang regretted it in his heart, so he called softly: "Huaizhen...... Uncle Tang has come to see you. ”

When Guo Jianyi heard this, he sighed silently, then lowered his head, and Li Xianshu wiped away his tears and said: "I woke up for a while before, barely drank some medicine, and fell asleep again." As he spoke, he sat next to the bed and reached out to hold Ying Huaizhen's hand.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Tang called a few times, Ying Huaizhen's eyelashes blinked slightly, Guo Jianyi saw it, his heart moved, and Xiao Tang also saw it, so he shouted again: "Huaizhen, do you hear it, Uncle Tang has come to see you......"

The two watched as they saw Ying Huaizhen frowning and slowly opened his eyes.

When Li Xianshu saw it, she was busy and shouted, Ying Huaizhen opened her eyes, but her eyes were looking at Guo Jianyi and Xiao Tang, first at Guo Jianyi, after looking at it for a while, she suddenly said softly: "What are you doing to stay away from us......

Guo Jianyi was stunned, a little surprised, and distressed, thinking that she blamed herself for not staying by her side, so she hurriedly said: "My little cousin is here, and he won't go anywhere, so I can really rest assured." ”

Ying Huaizhen blinked, but looked at Xiao Tang again, and when he looked at him, his eyes were a little dazed, as if he had just recognized him, and his lips moved.

Lee Hyun-sook asked with tears in her eyes, "Ah Zhen, what are you going to say?" Good boy, get better quickly......

Ying Huaizhen muttered and suddenly called: "Tang Yi ......"

Xiao Tang was feeling that she looked at herself as if she had something to say, and suddenly heard her pronounce her name, and was suddenly shocked.

Ying Huaizhen stared at him, but smiled again, and said, "Lord Sugar, hehe...... Mistress ......" laughed twice, slowly closed her eyes, and fell into a groggy sleep.

Seeing this, Li Xianshu couldn't help crying again, but she couldn't cry loudly, so she choked up and said, "It's always like this, wake up and sleep for a while...... Even Imperial Physician Su can't do anything, but what can I do?"

Xiao Tang looked at Ying Huaizhen's "asleep" appearance, and after a while, as soon as he pulled Guo Jianyi, Guo Jianyi understood, and the two went out.

Xiao Tang saw that there was no one left and right, so he said to Guo Jianyi: "I think Huaizhen's illness is really as Doctor Su said, it doesn't look like a disease on the body......

Guo Jianyi frowned tightly and said, "So I'm in a hurry to find that gentleman, maybe the crux of the problem lies in him." It's just a pity that he can't be found all the time, could it be that he went out of the city?"

Xiao Tang pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked: "I see that this person is not an ordinary person, you have searched so carefully but still can't find it, I am afraid that the place where he is is is not an ordinary place." ”

Guo Jianyi asked, "You mean?"

Xiao Tang asked, "Have you tried to find the officials' homes?"

Guo Jianyi nodded and said, "I have asked someone to inquire, but there is no one with such a appearance." ”

Xiao Tang naturally trusted Guo Jianyi's ability, and suddenly said, "So...... Have you also inquired about the prince's family?"

When Guo Jianyi heard this, his face changed slightly, and he asked after a while: "Do you feel ......?"

Looking at each other, Xiao Tang nodded, raised his hand and patted Guo Jianyi lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, just leave this matter to me." ”
