Chapter XIV Decisions
Xie Xuan?
Hearing this name, the smile in Li Ronghe's eyes suddenly disappeared, and he simply said neatly, "No." ”
Yan Xie's face hesitated, "But he said that this matter... It has something to do with Yun Niang. ”
……
……
Among the young people in Chang'an City, if you talk about beauty, Li Ronghe's brother and Li Rongmu, the county king nicknamed Gongzi Jin, is naturally the first beauty well-deserved.
But when it comes to handsome, it has to be Xie Xuan, the eldest grandson of the Xie family, who is better.
Xie Xuan was born with deep eye sockets, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight and straight nose, and thin and pale lips.
It's like a landscape painting, the picture is neat and clean, the color is light and handsome, and there is no one who is thick and colorful, but people can't help but look at it again and again.
This is Xie Xuan.
It's just that no matter how handsome a young man is, after seven years of indifferent day and night, it is enough for people to turn a blind eye to his appearance.
Li Ronghe had long been accustomed to the long silence he uttered after calling his name.
Only this time it's a little different.
Because Xie Xuan was still very young at this time, and he was not as old as he was four years later.
His eyes were clean and soft, and his tone was light, "Tolerance." ”
Xie Xuan's grandfather was the prince's teacher, so she and Xie Xuan have known each other since childhood. When Xie Xuan faced her, he often did not have the consciousness of being a subordinate, and still called her by her name directly according to her childhood name.
But she didn't want to.
Li Ronghe frowned, his tone detached and indifferent, "What is Xie Lang going to do with me?" ”
The distance was instantly widened.
Xie Xuan was a little puzzled.
But he had already learned to keep his emotions quiet. Seeing that Li Ronghe was estranged from him, he also adjusted his attitude, lowered his head and said respectfully, "It was the lord of Dayi County who sent his ministers to invite... You've got time to talk about it. ”
Yun Niang?
Li Ronghe had a headache, and he didn't know what she was messing with, but he still nodded in response, "I know, send a message to the righteous county lord for me, saying that I will go over when I have time." ”
Xie Xuan raised his eyes to look at her, and wanted to say something more, but after bumping into those indifferent eyes, he suddenly had no idea of going further, and quickly complied with Li Ronghe's wishes, bowed and retreated.
He didn't know why she had suddenly changed her attitude towards herself.
But he knew that now, or until he found the reason and solved the misunderstanding, he should remain avoidant, otherwise it would only make the relationship between the two worsen from now on.
Xie Xuan left, and Yan Xie quickly retreated to do things.
Baozhu accumulated his dissatisfaction for a long time before he was finally able to vent, "Sanctimonious!" ”
Since the last time the county lord expressed to her that she didn't want to marry Xie Xuan, she now felt that Xie Xuan had other intentions when she saw what Xie Xuan did.
Li Ronghe didn't refute her statement, or rather, she didn't notice Baozhu's anger at the moment, she devoted herself to thinking about Xie Xuan's affairs.
Looking at today, I think that Yun Niang not only did not succeed in seducing Xie Xuan and ruining his reputation, but was also used by him as an excuse to enter the East Palace.
But Xie Xuan really should look for her.
After all, in her previous life, she trusted Xie Xuan very much, and often regarded him as a confidant, so she went to Xie Mansion the next day to find him to pour out her various dissatisfaction with her father.
Presumably, there was no news on his side, and Xie Xuan was also wondering.
But Xie Xuan is a smart person. And the wise are mostly proud.
This time, I was deflated by myself, and I shouldn't be able to come to myself again.
But there's just one more thing......
Li Ronghe stood up suddenly.
Baozhu, who was still unhappy in her heart, suddenly cheered up and looked at her with burning eyes.
"Let's go."
Baozhu hurriedly followed, "County Lord, where are we going?" ”
"Gaofu."
She has changed her mind now, she wants to personally induce Qin Lang'er who may appear, and then kill Gao Yang, quickly solve this matter, and let Yun Niang die for herself.
Otherwise, if Yun Niang was tamed by Xie Xuan in the end and defected, then she would lose a lot.
……
……
On the bustling street, the noise of cars and horses and the noise of the crowd are endless, and it is very lively.
At the end of such a noisy downtown area, there is a solemn mansion, as if covered by an invisible barrier, isolating all the voices and emotions of the ordinary people.
Not a single common man or peddler dared to come within ten feet of it.
Not even a single person dared to look up at the closed iron gates or the towering walls.
The people went about their day as usual as if they couldn't see the mansion.
Only the official carriages that drive in from time to time remind the authenticity of this mansion that it is not a mirage in a bustling market.
That is the mansion of Gaoyang, who oversees the imperial history.
The official position of supervising the imperial history, although the rank is not high, but the power is very great.
In addition, Gao Yang was born in a high-ranking family, and he was extremely generous on weekdays, and often entertained guests in the mansion, so he was quite popular among the ministers of the court.
But not so among the people.
Because he hated the fireworks of the world and admired the purity of "no white ding", he ordered that no people were allowed to approach within ten zhang of Gaofu, and those who violated the order would be severely beaten by Gaofu's family, and the light ones would be bedridden for a month, and the heavy ones would even be disabled for life.
Over time, the people grew up in their minds, and never crossed the invisible line, and in the end they did not even dare to mention the mansion that had issued the rules.
The time is noon, even if the lively market is dead at the moment, honestly nest in the quiet spring light to recuperate.
But there are some anxious people who have to try to break this comfort earlier.
The vendors on both sides of the street who were resting for a while saw a man in his twenties and thirties wearing patched trousers and a bare upper body, about twenty or thirty years old, who came out of nowhere, and was limping towards the gate of Gaofu.
As he walked, he stated aloud how he accidentally stepped into the "line" a month ago, and how he was captured alive by the Gaofu family and brutally broke one of his legs.
The young man shouted and walked towards Gaofu, seeing that he was about to cross the line again, and the guards in front of Gaofu began to gather momentum.
The lady of Chang'an City, who couldn't see it, hurriedly walked up to pull him, wanting to drag him back, "Young man, don't go." If you go any further, you will not lose a leg, but you will lose your life. ”
The man withdrew his arm from the eldest mother's hand, looked at the crowd that gradually gathered behind him, and said with tears in his eyes, "Gao Yang has been an official for more than 20 years, and he has done everything he can to oppress the people and harm the loyal and good, and now I have become a waste, and I am not afraid that they will abolish me again." Today, even if I give up my life, I will do justice for the people! ”
The people shook their heads and sighed, stayed where they were, and looked pessimistically.
But no one dared to come forward again.
Under the gaze of the people, the young man finally dragged his stump leg and stepped into the invisible line.
And the housekeepers in front of the Gaofu Gate also immediately walked towards him with all kinds of sticks or farm tools.
