Chapter 112: To the Capital?
I can't let her know.
It seems that the content of that letter has something to do with her, or something to do with becoming a king.
Otherwise, she couldn't figure out why they were hiding it from her.
Li Mingyun let out an "oh" and didn't ask about it anymore.
"That's right, Dad." She said, "Escort Xue went to the study to look for you, have you seen him?" ”
Li Zhihuai put the paper away and put it away.
"He has some injuries and should be recuperated, I asked Alin to send him back to his yard to rest first, and when I am free, I will go to him."
Li Zhihuai was actually still in the dark about Xue Yan's injury, and he was ready to go to him to ask for an explanation, but now was not the time. He had to straighten out the matter of His Royal Highness King Cheng with his wife first.
Li Mingyun moved the corners of his mouth and pursed his lips again.
"Xue Guard......" she said, looking at her parents, "Xue Guard, he is a very good person, and he is also dedicated to me......"
"Yes, Guardian Xue is very good." Chen said, with a hint of sorrow in his smile, so faint that people couldn't find it.
Li Mingyun smiled at her and looked into the distance.
The sun was shining outside.
Now that summer is almost beginning, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and the windows are slightly hidden, and you can see the sunlight spilling onto the landscape screen through the window paper.
Suddenly remembering something, she turned her head.
"Dad, mother, last time you said that the second sister would marry Cui Gongzi at the end of the year, right?"
Chen was stunned.
"Why did you talk about this all of a sudden?" She asked.
Li Mingyun said with a smile: "The second sister got married, and the eldest aunt had already sent a letter to me and the fourth sister and the fifth sister to prepare first, and then go to Beijing with the fourth aunt." ”
In fact, she had told Li Zhihuai and them about this matter before, but every time they were postponed by them because it was too late.
She didn't understand it before, but now she knows why.
They didn't want her to enter Beijing for fear that she would be in danger.
"There's no rush to the capital." Chen stroked the back of her hand, and still comforted her with the initial reason, "It's not too late to wait for a letter from the capital in a few days." ”
Li Mingyun pursed his lips and stood without speaking.
This reason could no longer convince her, unless they could say something else, or simply say, that they could not go.
Her eyes sparkled, her apricot eyes were slightly round, and she looked a little stubborn.
Li Zhihuai gently patted her shoulder.
"Yun'er wants to go to the capital?" He said, jokingly, "I haven't been there, so I really want to go to the capital to play?" ”
Li Mingyun nodded, looking at him with clear eyes.
"I've never been to the capital." She curled her lips, "I want to go and see, and besides, the second brother is also there." ”
"Yun'er, do you really want to go?" Chen couldn't help but ask her, his expression was tentative and a little apprehensive, "Your second sister will only get married at the end of the year, if you go, maybe you won't be able to accompany your father and mother for the New Year." ”
Li Mingyun's eyes moved.
Of course, she knows this truth, a trip to Beijing will definitely take a lot of time, and there will be accidents on the way, and it is very likely that she will not be able to get home at the end of the year.
But she just wanted to say it, and it was a very contradictory idea, both to let her father and mother understand that she already knew not to hide it from her, and to let them never know, so that she could stay with them for a long time.
I sighed slightly.
"Dad, mother, do you want me to go to the capital?" She looked left and right and said, "If you want me to go, then I will go, if you don't want me to go, I will not go." ”
Still greedy and want to stay with them.
Li Zhihuai touched her head.
"Dad and Mom naturally hope that you can accompany us for the New Year." He said gently, with an elegant face, "If Yun'er really wants to go to the capital to play, wait for a year or two, and your father and mother will accompany you." ”
By his side, he was at least relieved. Some unnecessary troubles can be avoided.
Li Mingyun smiled, tears shining in his eyes.
No matter what, they are so considerate of her, and whatever she asks, they try their best to meet her.
They, that's good.
"Thank you, Dad." She said, "Then I'll stay at home with you." ”
Yun'er is very sensible, she has been like this since she was a child, so she can worry less.
Chen said with a smile.
……
……
Li Zhihuai came out of Chen's house, and Alin had been waiting for a long time.
He looks ordinary, but Mu Ran's expression adds a bit of inexplicable unspeakable temperament to him.
"Sir." The faint words made him cold and ruthless, and only those who have been with him for a long time will know that he is a cold-faced and warm-hearted person.
Li Zhihuai looked at him and smiled warmly.
"Ah Lin, but you sent Xue Yan back to the courtyard?" He asked, stepping down the steps.
Arin straightened his back and followed.
"Yes, Escort Xue went back."
replied with a glance, which made Li Zhihuai lose the interest in talking to him.
"Then go find Xue Yan, come to me, he also wants to talk to me about something."
Ah Lin responded that he followed behind like a wooden man, if it weren't for the shadow falling to the ground, Li Zhihuai wouldn't even feel that there was someone behind him.
After silence all the way, they arrived at the door of Xue Yan's residence.
Before he could push the door, the door creaked open, and Xue Yan came out of it, covering his chest with one hand.
"It's all said to let you rest, but I don't listen." Li Zhihuai blamed him, and Alin immediately stepped forward to help him.
The three of them went into the courtyard together.
The empty courtyard is very deserted, it is remote, and few people come.
"Master, Yao Pu is dead." Xue Yan lowered his voice and said.
Li Zhihuai was scanning the entire courtyard, and before he could react to what he said, he heard a low male voice flying over his ears.
He looked at Xue Yan with a questioning expression.
"Yao Pu is dead." Xue Yan had to say it again, this time the voice was louder and clearer than before, and Li Zhihuai also heard it clearly.
His eyes widened with disbelief.
"That's it, dead?" He said in surprise, standing with his hands in his hands, "You said that you found Yao Pu, and you are going to kill someone?" You're injured because of this? ”
Two or three days ago, he also discussed with Xue Yan how to solve Yao Pu's matter, and now he was suddenly told that Yao Pu was dead, and anyone would be surprised.
"My master came, and he killed him." Xue Yan explained that he naturally would not attribute the credit of his master to himself, it would be too unkind to do that.
His face was still a little pale, and his thin lips were white and bloodless, thinking that it was because he had been standing for a long time.
Li Zhihuai asked him to sit down first, and then said, "The matter has come to this point, and it doesn't matter who did it." ”
"As soon as Yao Pu dies, the capital will send someone to investigate, and when the time comes, I am afraid that there will be another bloody storm."
After all, Yao Pu was a general under the crown prince, and if he died inexplicably outside Gwangju City like this, everyone would think that there was something strange inside.
"No, it won't." Xue Yan shook his head slightly, and even his head moved slowly because of the wound, "They will definitely know that Yao Pu was killed by my master, and it has nothing to do with Gwangju, and they will not suspect others." ”
He said it very plainly, so plain that it made people feel that it was a small thing for his master.
Li Zhihuai "sigh", a leaf fell from the top of his head and fell to the ground.
"Although your master's martial arts are high, if you are alone, you will inevitably encounter danger. It's also possible to get caught by them. He said.
That's Xue Yijian, the most important person under Concubine Niangniang, how could they let him go.
Xue Yan shook his head again.
"My master said no, that is, no, he won't lie to me." He said firmly, his thin lips pursed slightly.
Having said so, Li Zhihuai naturally would not refute him again.
It is also normal for an apprentice to firmly believe in his master.
"It's going to be fine, that's good." He smiled, his eyes softened, "I also hope that Master Jian will always be safe." ”
"And you, Xue Yan, you have to think more about yourself in everything, although I don't want Yao Pu to do anything after knowing the truth, but I don't want you to be hurt because of it."
Li Zhihuai has always adhered to this attitude, talent is the most important, if it is a life-threatening thing, if you can't do it, you won't do it.
He must not hurt the people who help him because of his worries.
Xue Yan's figure paused slightly.
"Thank you, sir." He said, remembering what the master said before leaving, and looked at him and asked in a soft voice, "Will you let the young lady go to the capital?" ”
Li Zhihuai was stunned for a moment, and his gentle face faded.
"I don't want to." He sighed.
didn't say "I won't", but said "I don't want to", because I knew why Xue Yan asked this.
Xue Yan lowered his eyes and stopped talking.
