"Look, that's Dongshi!"

An ox cart is moving slowly in the heavy rain. The car was quite spacious, with a total of three people, the master and servant and the driving boy.

Seeing that her little lady had to open the curtains to see despite the wind and rain, the maid was helpless and used to it, so she said: "What about the East Market, today's scene, I'm afraid there is no one on the street, and we are the only ones, thanks to the blessing of the little lady, we have been delayed for some time on the road to see the excitement, and we have to hurry on a rainy day." ”

"How can I be blamed for this?" Even though the outside was gloomy and dull because of the rain, the little lady was still looking at it with great interest, "Didn't the officials from the palace say that you can arrive at Xingqing Palace today, your little lady and I are so clever, from the Eastern Capital to Chang'an, there are so many fun things along the way, and I didn't delay the trip one by one." As for the rain today, I didn't let it rain. ”

The maid suddenly felt a little headache: "If it weren't for Ah Lang to let the little lady set off earlier, the little lady would only be afraid that she would miss a big event." ”

But I saw that the little lady said confidently: "Ayeruo didn't let me leave early, I can also arrive today." ”

"The little lady is always hard-mouthed...... Do you still remember Ah Lang's entrustment before leaving? Our family is not as prosperous as before, it is not easy to have such an opportunity, the little lady must not be willful, everything is important to the big things. ”

"Isn't it just to be a bridesmaid, what kind of big deal is this?" The little lady held her cheek with one hand, looking bored.

"It also depends on whose bridesmaid it is, isn't it? Ordinary women are naturally nothing, but this time the bride is ......"

Without waiting for the maid to finish speaking, the little lady's eyes were certain, and the corners of her lips rose: "Who said that there is no one on the street except us?" ”

The maid said "Huh" and came to the little lady's side: "There are really people...... It's strange, they are clearly sitting in front of the gate of a house, why don't they go in, they have to get out in the rain? ”

"The door of the house is open on the wall of the fang, and there is such a long row of halberds at the door, if this family is not a prince, but also a general, and there are white lanterns and white flags hanging on the door...... Presumably they are not from this family, and it just so happens that this family is funeral today, and the slaves below are not in charge, so they are invited to take shelter from the rain. The little lady guessed, "Listen, they seem to be crying." ”

The rain curtain was fine, the rain was loud, and the maid also looked at it carefully for a long time, and then listened for a while before saying, "Exactly." Seeing that they were wearing plain white clothes, they may have known this family and came here to mourn, and they were sad and sad. Hey, no, since it's a hanging, it's a courtesy for the servants of this family to let them into the house to shelter from the rain......"

The little lady immediately stopped the car: "You go and ask where their house is." I have seen that it is not good to let them get drenched all the time on this rainy day, and there is still a place in the car to give them a ride. ”

The maid immediately stopped the little girl: "Don't! They are all men at first glance, and the little lady is a woman, and she has not left the cabinet, how can she be in the same car with a strange man? ”

The little maid also said: "Sister Shuang is reasonable, the little lady should be honest, the slave doesn't want to be beaten by Ah Lang again." ”

They Ah Lang had no children in his life, and only inherited a daughter from his dead brother, who was regarded as his own daughter, and loved and connived like a jewel since he was a child, making this little lady always bold and very naughty. Fortunately, the little lady is kind-hearted and has never broken her heart because of arrogance, as long as they mention that she was beaten, she will be obedient.

As expected by the maid and the little maid, the little lady hesitated for a moment and said, "Then it's always okay to send them an umbrella, right?" ”

The maid hurriedly pointed to the little maid and said, "Let him go!" ”

The little lady smiled: "That's natural, my clothes are specially made by Aya to find the best embroidery girl in Dongdu, but it can't be dirty, and there will be big things to do in a while." ”

The maid loved to hear this, and finally showed a little smile, took out two umbrellas and handed them to the little girl.

The little lady lifted the curtain with one hand, watched the little girl run over with an umbrella, and saw the thinner man among the two, standing up like a pine and cypress, and bowing to her from afar. She was about to bow her head in return, when she saw the maid brush down the curtains, blocking all her vision.

"It's raining so hard, they can't see me clearly." The little lady doesn't care about the authenticity.

"That's not going to work either." The maid snorted lightly, "Along the way, the little lady's face has caused a lot of trouble, if it weren't for Ah Lang is official body and gave the little lady a certificate, whether we can reach Chang'an smoothly or not." Not to mention...... Such rude people are nothing to look at. ”

The little lady was puzzled: "Rude? Instead of giving a good salute and thanking me, you didn't let me return the salute, but you said that they were rude, and you were unreasonable. ”

The maid said: "That thinner Lang Jun didn't have to say anything, but another burly man always sat firmly on the steps, ignoring our kindness. ”

The little lady thought for a while and said, "That person must be too sad, the umbrella I gave me is my own mind, why bother so much?" Okay, okay, is the little guy back, let's go. ”

The ox cart stopped at the entrance of the alley for a short time and then slowly left.

Because the rain was too heavy and there was a distance between them, Xiao Jiangyuan couldn't see the benefactor's face clearly, and only vaguely heard a few conversations in the benefactor's car. She wanted to inquire a little so that she could return the umbrella in the future, but she heard that the little girl said that she was from the Eastern Capital, and she would return to the Eastern Capital in the coming day, and this umbrella was a gift, so she didn't have to return it.

She opened the umbrella for Li Longji and said, "It's a good little lady." ”

Li Longji cried recklessly just now, and now he is a little exhausted. Seeing Xiao Jiangyuan soothing himself in a different way, he gritted his teeth and stood up, took the umbrella with one hand, and pulled Xiao Jiangyuan into his arms with the other, blocking the heavy rain for her: "I thought that when I came here, I would be able to see Wulang again, and then I could prove to everyone that Wulang was not dead...... But all I saw was the white lantern and the white banner on the door. ”

The proof he wanted was not obtained, but he faced the reality more clearly, Li Longji still had the heart to knock on the door to avoid the rain, so he sat down weakly. He suddenly couldn't walk, and he didn't know what to do, until a white dress appeared in front of him, and the mud on the ground was stained by kneeling, that he regained his thoughts, and finally let go of himself, and released all these years of grief for a while.

Gorou is his youngest brother, and he grew up chasing after him since he was a child, and he has a lively temperament, and he is the one who has the best relationship with him among several brothers. It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, and he treats Gorou like a father and a brother, and he always has to be biased. Now that Gorou is gone, his heart is broken.

Xiao Jiangyuan gently patted Li Longji's back, gluing his heart back to its original state little by little.

By the time they returned to Xingqing Palace, most of the rain had already been harvested.

Although Concubine Wu Hui was still sitting firmly in the Nanxun Palace, her heart had already been in turmoil. She looked at her son Shouwang, who was also worried on the seat, and then at her daughter Princess Xianyi, who was so anxious that she kept walking back and forth in the palace, and her slender hands couldn't help but clench.

San Lang must not have any accidents, she is just fine, it's a big deal to go with him, but her children have not yet married a family, so they are in charge......

Thinking like this, when a eunuch came to report that Li Longji had returned to the palace, Concubine Wu Hui couldn't react for the first time, and it wasn't until Li Longji stepped into the Nanxun Hall in a damp state that she came back to her senses and got up to greet her. Without waiting for her to ask, she listened to Xiao Jiangyuan, who was returning with a dampness, say:

"The saint is in King Xue's mansion, and I also ask Concubine Hui to prepare hot water and clothes quickly, so as not to let the saint catch a cold."

Hearing Xiao Jiangyuan's remind, Concubine Wu Hui didn't ask more, and gave King Shou and Princess Xianyi a look, so that they didn't ask.

Li Longji saw that his children were also there, so he raised his spirits a little and said, "I'm fine, you don't have to worry, go and do your own work." Eighteen Lang, you have been going to see King Ning more recently, and by the way, you have also asked Hua Nu to come into the palace to see me. ”

King Shou respectfully saluted and said, "Yes." ”

Princess Xianyi rubbed her father's cold hands: "Then the daughter will come to see Aya at night, if Aye's hands are still cold at that time, the daughter will punish Aye." ”

Seeing that his son was tall and quiet, and his daughter was delicate and caring, Li Longji couldn't help but smile: "Okay." ”

When the children retreated, he walked to the inner room with the support of Concubine Wu Hui, and pushed Xiao Jiangyuan away as he went: "You should also hurry up and take a hot bath and change your clothes." ”

Hearing Concubine Wu Hui also persuade herself, Xiao Jiangyuan withdrew her hand, and did not turn around and return to her room until the husband and wife in front of her entered the inner room.

After personally serving Li Longji and taking a bath, Concubine Wu Hui breathed a sigh of relief: "San Lang will not scare Yueniang like this in the future." ”

Li Longji closed his eyes: "Are Xianyi and Eighteen Lang also scared?" ”

"The two of them didn't even have lunch for this."

"What about the prince?"

Concubine Wu Hui didn't tell the prince about this at all, one is that this matter is very important, in order to prevent instability, the first thing is to keep it secret, and the other is that she is indeed selfish, so in the entire court, she only told her two children.

Li Longji asked casually, but Concubine Wu Hui couldn't answer casually, so she said: "If San Lang doesn't come back, Yueniang must tell the prince." ”

Li Longji nodded: "Is there anything else in the past few days, you told me, but I can't remember clearly." ”

Concubine Wu Hui pressed Li Longji's shoulder: "It's our Xianyi who is going to get married at the end of the year, and I found a few young ladies with innocent family backgrounds and similar ages to be a maid for Xianyi, which is not a big deal." Yueniang also thought that Prince Huixuan's new funeral, and the marriage between Xianyi and Eighteen Lang should be postponed, but these little ladies had already been notified to enter the palace today, and one came from the Eastern Capital, so it was not good to cancel it temporarily. ”

Li Longji said: "It's okay, the marriage of the children, how to handle it and how to do it, since I promised to leave it to you, there is no reason to break my word." As for Goro...... I have a very good relationship with these children of mine, and I have brought them to play with them to adulthood, and I don't want to delay their affairs because of my own affairs. ”

"That'...... This bridesmaid, San Lang wants to go and see it with Yueniang? ”
