Chapter 45: Stay
When the East was still white, the Guogong Mansion in the capital was already busy.
Just waiting for Wei Guogong to resign from the palace, they will go back to Yucheng.
Yunxia was dressing up for Li Xiao, and she heard Duo'er, who was waiting on the side, ask, "Do we also want to go with Wei Guogong?" ”
Seeing that Li Xiao had no intention of answering, Yunxia replied for Li Xiao: "No, let's leave in a few days, the county lord will have to return to Ning tomorrow?" ”
"Are you really going to Yucheng?" Fang Er couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm!"
Li Xiao didn't speak, so Yunxia answered for her again.
At this moment, Li Xiao's mind is all about Wei Guogong, who is about to be seen. In her memory, the first time she saw Wei Guogong was the day after she and Wei Ling got married, which was not much different from today, and it was also after he entered the palace to resign.
At that time, Wei Guogong, in Li Xiao's eyes, was just a kind and amiable elder, and because of his help to them, Li Xiao felt that he was even more respectable.
It's just that who would have expected that in the heart of such an elder, what was hidden was the evil intention of committing chaos and plotting rebellion.
"Shall we not go?" Fang Er spoke again, with a thick reluctance in her voice.
"Why don't you go!" Duo'er asked rhetorically: "We have stayed in the capital since we were children, and we have never been anywhere, this is not right, you can go out and have a look!" ”
"But our home is in the capital!" Fang Er said again.
Li Xiao, who had never reacted, couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in her heart when she heard this. Yes, the capital is her home, but for the sake of this home, she had to leave, and she couldn't help but go, because the roots of the Wei family were there.
She glanced at the tangled Fang Er through the bronze mirror, as if she saw the self in her heart who was reluctant to leave. I couldn't help but say lightly: "If you don't want to go, stay here!" ”
A fluttering sentence, which seemed to be a sincere word without emotion, fell into the ears of the maidservants, but it changed its taste.
The master is angry?
Yunxia paused, a wooden comb stopped in the air, and Duo'er was also stunned, looking at Fang Er with a panicked face.
"The county lord forgives the sin, it's the slave who deserves to die, and he shouldn't talk nonsense!" When Fang Er heard this, she knelt on the ground in horror, for fear that Li Xiao would be annoyed and abandon her.
"I don't want to leave the capital either!" After Li Xiao muttered such a sentence, he waved his hand and motioned for Yunxia to continue.
What Li Xiao just said: If you don't want to go, you can stay, but it is actually true. Fang'er, Duo'er has been by her side since she was a child, how could she bear to take them into this tiger's den together.
"County Lord!" There was a voice outside the door, it was the maidservant girl in the Weiguo Mansion.
Yunxia glanced at Duo'er, who was still a little sluggish on the side, and motioned to take a look.
"Grandpa Xu is back." Yunxia said.
"Well, where is Wei Lingjue?" Li Xiao stood up and suddenly thought of this question.
"Shizi, he slept in the wing room last night." Yunxia returned.
Li Xiao looked outside through the window, the hour had passed, but there was still no movement in the side room.
"Call him!"
Only Li Xiao and Fang Er were still kneeling on the ground in the room.
Li Xiao took two steps forward and stood in front of her. Bowed his head slightly, staring at the back of her neck for a moment.
"I'm telling the truth, if you don't want to go, go back to the prince's mansion."
"County master, Fang is the slave and maid who trespassed and said things that shouldn't be said. You can punish me however you want, just don't leave me! Fang Er pleaded, and the choked voice couldn't hold back any longer.
"Get up!" Li Xiao leaned over slightly and grabbed Fang Er's arm.
