Chapter 105: Peach Blossoms
Li Xuanba put his hands around his chest, first looked at Li Shimin thoughtfully, and then looked at Dou Yun fixedly: "Cousin Dou Yun, you seem to remember the wrong person? The one who snatched your lantern seems to be your brother and me, right?"
As he spoke, he kept a straight face and expressed his dissatisfaction.
Li Shimin couldn't cry or laugh when he saw this, knowing that his younger brother seemed to have the intention of playing tricks on this girl.
That Dou Yun was not easy to mess with at all, she seemed to notice Li Xuanba for the first time, and looked up and down carefully: "Are you, Garuda? The third cousin who used to follow Brother Pilusha and always had two slugs? ”
Li Xuanba's face suddenly turned dark, and he thought to himself, where did he have a snot when he was a child?
But he was the first to open his mouth, and at this time, he couldn't blame Dou Yun for slandering later. This somewhat made Li Xuanba feel a little unhappy, and continued to argue with Dou Yun: "Hearing my cousin say this, I remembered something again. I remember that when my cousin was a child, she once said that she would marry her second brother. The second brother didn't agree at the time, and you cried for a long time. ”
"Third brother, what nonsense are you talking about? there's nothing at all, it's just a joke!"
Dou Yun's little face suddenly turned red again, and he stomped his feet angrily. However, her gaze glanced at Li Shimin secretly, as if she was unusually shy.
"It's a pity—"
At this time, Li Xuanba was a poor dagger, and laughed: "It's a pity, at that time, the old lady was ready to say goodbye to the two of you." But what did someone say at the time? In front of the second brother and many people in the Dou and Li families, he said that he would never marry a person like my second brother who had bad conduct and was weak in virtue and talent?"
He didn't experience it personally, because he was still unconscious. But he heard others talk about it afterwards and was deeply impressed.
"Third cousin!"
The red glow on Dou Yun's face suddenly faded, as white as paper, and his sparkling eyes were wide open, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
But then she gritted her silver teeth and saluted Li Shimin with shame: "This thing is wrong with Yun'er, but at that time, I didn't know that Brother Vilusha was framed by the villain." Later, when he wanted to apologize to Brother Vilusha, his brother had already gone to Wugong County, and Yun'er never had a chance. Today's opportunity is just right, Brother Virusha, at that time, my little sister I was young and ignorant, I didn't know the reason for accumulating and destroying bones, and I asked my brother not to be surprised. ”
Seeing this, Li Shimin immediately smiled and waved his hand generously: "Cousin doesn't need to care, at that time, he was infamous for his brother and was rejected by the world. Cousin, you are innocent and unbelievable. ”
In fact, if Li Xuanba hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have remembered it. I only remember that the whole person was wooden at that time, and I felt that everyone respected him and despised him. This Dou Yun is no different from others, and naturally he doesn't take it to heart.
At this time, he also heard Dou Yun's apology, which was indeed very sincere
But Li Xuanba didn't want to let it go, and he sneered. It's just that before he could speak, Dou Yun also saluted him: "Please also ask Brother Garuda to do a lot, don't worry about the little girl." ”
Li Xuanba suddenly choked, even if it was him, he couldn't say anything at this time, so he had to mutter: "The so-called courteous for nothing, either treachery or theft! Why did you stop our brother for no reason?"
Li Xuanba deliberately glared at her, and his words were not soft at all.
"It's not for nothing, it's true!"
The girl glanced at Li Xuanba with disgust, and then laughed again, her face was bright and lovely: "I'm here to remind Brother Vilusha, be careful today." Just now, I happened to hear a few noble sons and daughters, surrounding His Royal Highness King Han, saying that you don't like your brother, and you have to find a way to deal with you. Okay, I have to go and accompany the old ancestor, and the two brothers say goodbye!"
After saying this, she first made a grimace at Li Xuanba, and then picked up her skirt and hurriedly ran to the other side of the corridor.
Wait until the figure of this woman disappears in the corner of the corridor. Li Shimin squinted at his younger brother: "The third brother's joke today is a bit too much. ”
"It's not just a joke, after hearing about this in the past, there was always a knot in my heart. At the beginning, the second brother, all your reputation was ruined, and this woman made great contributions. But since she sincerely apologized, I didn't bother with her. ”
Li Xuanba also seemed to feel that he was too much, and touched his nose embarrassedly, but then he changed his tone and said teasingly: "Second brother, do you have to thank me for blocking the peach blossoms for you?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly: "Peach blossoms?
"Can't you see it, second brother?"
Li Xuanba snorted softly, squeezing his eyebrows: "Our cousin, I have affection for you, and I am obviously pleased with you." ”
"So, I have to thank you, second brother?"
Li Xuanba couldn't hear his brother's teasing at all, and he wanted to nod with a smile. However, Li Shimin's side had already slapped him and slapped him on the top of the head.
"Talking nonsense, making your own opinions, you should be punished!"
This palm came suddenly, Li Xuanba was caught off guard, and he couldn't dodge it at all, and he was dizzy when he was pat.
After that, he could only sigh at the progress of the second brother's martial arts, rubbing his head, and muttering behind Li Shimin: "Yes, it is Guanyin's sister who should be grateful to me..." Hmm, today is the birthday of the old lady of the Dou family, and most of the Guanyin maids will come, right?"
Li Shimin didn't seem to hear it, he kept looking ahead, and didn't intend to pay attention to this guy at all. He wouldn't tell Li Xuanba that he came to the banquet because he wanted to meet Guanyin before marriage.
Li Xuanba was bored with himself, so he could only change the topic: "What are you going to do about what your cousin said?" It's strange, what His Royal Highness King Han, do you have any grievances with the second brother? Why are you unhappy to look at the second brother?"
"No matter what they do, it's nothing more than soldiers coming to block them, and water to cover them. Whatever the means, I'll take it. ”
Speaking of this, Li Shimin's expression moved slightly, and he turned to look at Li Xuanba: "Third brother, haven't you always complained that you can't find an opponent recently, and you feel itchy hands?"
Li Xuanba suddenly understood, and a wild smile appeared between his eyebrows: "Fortunately, I brought my Bull Demon Armor here, and the second brother will just sit on the wall and watch later! If there is really someone who doesn't open his eyes, I, Li Sanlang, will definitely let him know how to write the word 'service'." ”
※ ※ ※ ※
Just when Li Xuanba laughed loudly, in another water pavilion not far from this corridor, Dou Yun, who said that he was going to accompany his great-grandmother, was carefully hidden behind the curtain and secretly peeked in the direction of the two brothers.
At this time, there was no one else around her, only a maid about twenty-eight years old accompanied her, and her face was full of worry: "Miss, I heard that this Li family Erlang has a very bad reputation. ”
"It's just a rumor. ”
Dou Yun sneered and waved his hand: "The affairs of the Li family, others don't know, can I still know?"
It is nothing more than the Diao slave next to Li Jiancheng, the eldest son of Tang Guofu, seeing that his second cousin's art of war is superb and talented, he is afraid that Li Jiancheng's position as the son of the world will be taken away by his second cousin, so he designed to frame him.
- This is not without precedent, for example, the position of the Duke of Naji Guogong, after the death of their great-grandfather, was not inherited, but was transferred by the Son of Heaven to Dou Yi in the second room.
Although the latter already had the title of Duke Shenwu before inheriting Duke Jiguo. Since the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there are many people who have not been able to inherit the title as the eldest son. With Tang Guogong's love for Li Shimin at that time, it is very likely that the Duke of Guo will be passed on to his second son.
And after the incident that day, her brother Virusha suddenly became the finger of a thousand people. It wasn't until Li Xuanba woke up that the truth was revealed. But at that time, Li Shimin's reputation had been ruined and could not be recovered.
Unfortunately, she was too young at the time, and when she saw her cousin being slandered by everyone, she believed it and failed to discern the truth.
The maid in the rear was even more worried: "But I also heard that Erlang of the Li family has been married to the eldest grandson's family, and it is said that he will get married soon." ”
She was worried that her young lady was in love with the second son of the Tang family.
It is very likely that the girls of their Dou family, influenced by the martial arts style in their families, have always been arrogant and only respect wise and brave men.
And this Erlang of the Li family has been praised by several male hosts in the family many times recently, especially the old man, and he has personally praised this son in front of the young lady, promising that he has the appearance of a famous general and has a bright future. In addition, it has been rumored in Beijing recently that the second son of Tang Guofu turned the tide and repelled the rebels with weak soldiers, which has the merit of saving the driver. At a young age, he had to be awarded the same three divisions, the lord of the founding son, and the scenery in Luoyang City was infinite.
The key is that Li Shimin himself is also born with a majestic and heroic weapon, and he only needs to look at it to know that he is the dragon and phoenix among people, and it is the heart of people who see it.
is that she admires her, not to mention her own young lady.
If only this son didn't have a fiancée, it would be a good match for her young lady.
But now, what is the identity of Miss? Can she still marry and be a concubine?
"Mouthy!"
Dou Yun also sensed the temptation of his maidservant, glanced at the latter coldly, and then sneered: "What if I like him? ”
Seeing that the maid's breath was suffocated and she couldn't speak, Dou Yuncai looked pale again, turned his gaze back to the corridor in front of him, and chuckled: "What's more, the two of them are just engaged, and they are not already married!"
"Miss—"
The maid seemed to remember something at this time, and suddenly her face changed slightly, and she looked at her young lady's back thoughtfully: "Miss, you are—but today is the old lady's birthday banquet,"
"Of course I know, do you regard your young lady as a person who doesn't know how to measure?
Dou Yun couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and then her voice turned cold: "But if she is ugly by herself, then it's no wonder that others!"
——A woman with bad conduct is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the martial arts Li family!
