Chapter Ninety-Eight: Another Person

Let's talk about the art competition in the morning, Li Tai watched the Yu Yu downstairs slip away in the open, listening to Yu Shinan talking to several doctors, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still didn't arrest anyone.

He has always known that in this girl's heart, in a way, even her own mother can't compare to her eldest brother's weight, and there is nothing to worry about with the same dead person, it can be seen that she is so proud to say that Lu Zhi will be uncomfortable, even if he thinks that he is no less than Lu Zhi in her heart, but what he wants is more than that.

"Haha, then congratulations to Old Yu for being a good apprentice, Miss Eldest Sun has excellent qualifications"

Li Tai turned around, a few people stopped talking, the little movement downstairs just now did not attract the attention of a few people, it can be seen that Li Tai is leaving, or get up to see each other, Yu Shinan waved his hand at a few people, followed by Li Tai and went down, and Jin Qide and Cha Jiwen were at the end, the two looked at each other, each holding their beards and laughing.

Tomorrow's calligraphy competition can be interesting, Tai Academy and Calligraphy Academy are going to be called, one is the daughter of the five unique new apprentices of the Sun family, the other is the new talented princess of Chang'an City, and Yu Shinan and Li Tai are present, it is really impossible to say who will win and who will lose.

Li Tai came out of the Guozi Prison and went back to Yankang Fang directly, the Wei Wangfu was stolen by thieves the night before, although he didn't lose anything, and Li Tai didn't punish anyone, but the lock of the door in the west of the warehouse was picked, which still made the guards in charge of the courtyard feel anxious, and they were obviously nervous in the past two days.

Ah Sheng was sent to Luoyang by Li Tai yesterday to pick up Yinxiao, who had been freed for more than a year, and Pingtong Pinghui was sent to Longquan Town.

Entered the pharmacy where the relics were often consumed, walked to the tall medicine cabinet, pressed everywhere on the empty wall a few times, only to hear a "squeak", and a small door came out of the white stunned wall, just enough to allow one person to pass through - this is undoubtedly a dark room.

By the light outside, it can be seen that there is no gold, silver and jewelry in the darkroom, only two small cabinets of flowers and trees against the wall, in which there are some boxes, and a few gray footprints on the water-striped carpet, among which there is a low table, on which there is a candlestick that is not lit, and the wall of the inlaid wood is empty, and there is not even a calligraphy or painting.

Li Tai stood in the room for a while, looking at the two empty walls, especially the one in the middle, his face was a little ugly.

"Master." There was suddenly a figure behind him, and Li Tai didn't look back, and said, "Caught it?" ”

"The subordinates are incompetent, Shen Jiantang seems to have left the city, do you want to send someone to Zuijiangnan to guard?"

"No need, the person is in the capital, continue to look for it."

"Yes."

Far away in Luoyang, Ah Sheng, who was coaxing the good-tempered bird master to return to Beijing, didn't know that Shen Jiantang, who was driven away by Li Tai a few days ago, killed a horse pistol the night before, and had the courage to pry the treasury of the Wei Wangfu, and finally took away a few "treasures" of Li Tai, which failed to come back in time, but no one persuaded Li Tai to persuade him, but someone was caught afterwards and almost got off a layer of skin.

When Yiyu returned to Longquan Town, just after lunch, the Lu family had eaten, and sat in the small courtyard of the main house with Mrs. Zhou and Han Li to bask in the sun, and Han Shiyu didn't know where to go.

"Have you eaten so early since you came back?" Lu had heard from Yi Yu yesterday that Li Tai was going to judge the art competition of the Five Academies, and he thought that she would have to come back in the afternoon.

"Not yet." Yi Yu took the blue cloth crescent stool handed by Ping Hui and sat down at the stone table, Mrs. Zhou and Han Li were playing on both sides, a game of chess was played equally, Lu sat opposite the auspicious thing sewn with red silk noodles, I heard that she hadn't eaten, so she took a needle and picked her sideburns, so that Chen Qu went to the kitchen to get some food, Ping Tong was giving Lu Shi a hand, and Wen Yan also put things aside and followed.

"It's a good thing to tell you," Lu Shi laughed, and a few fine lines rolled up at the corners of his eyes, "Your aunt and aunt came from Jiangnan with furniture and objects, and they are halfway there, and they will be there in about ten days." ”

The people sent by Han Li are fast, so you met someone from Yangzhou on the official road in Tongnan, and came back with the news, which can be regarded as a reassurance to the Lu family, who is worried that his daughter's dowry will not be on the table.

Yi Yu was happy at first, and then his little face wrinkled, Han Li dropped the sunspot, waiting for Mrs. Zhou to play chess, and when she heard Lu Shi ask her what was wrong, she glanced sideways at Yi Yu, who shook her head and was silent, fiddled with the chess pieces in the box, and said:

"This is the subscription money of the thousand taels of silver."

Yi Yu was said to think about it, and snorted as an acknowledgement, but Lu Shi didn't care and said, "How much money has been spent, and this is still missing, so it's good to be just in case." ”

"It's right to be careful, but after all, you are going to marry into the Wei Palace, don't take some small money too seriously, otherwise you will be angry in the future." Han Li lifted the airless son up and considered the chess game.

"It's always right to have time to listen to your elders." Mrs. Zhou dropped her head and reached out to straighten the crooked Qingjie bamboo flute on the jade bun, and the old woman's eyes were still not the slightest deviation.

Han Li was also a young master of a prosperous family, the Lu family was not good, and he also helped the Fang family with housework, both of them knew the business in this big portal, and sometimes they had to open one eye and close one eye, and the Yu Yu had heard the Lu family mention it to some extent, and nodded to Mrs. Zhou, signaling that she had listened.

Chen Qu led two people back, put a four-legged small case on the side of the stone table, put two hot dishes and a bowl of rice, it was hot in the afternoon, Yu Yu couldn't eat much, he took two bites and put it down, Qia Pingtong brought a small urn of terracotta, Yu Yu took it and opened it, looked inside, was surprised, and then he was happy, couldn't help laughing, turned his head and said:

"Sent in the morning?"

There is nothing else in this small urn, but a pearlescent red cherry, which has been stalked and soaked in honey soup, which is fluorescent, and it attracts the mouth in an instant. Who gave this thing, Yu Yu didn't think about it, he didn't know that he said that it was the last one that day, and Concubine Yang also gave it to Chengyang, and where did Li Taida get this fresh cherry.

"When you just left the house in the morning." Pingtong also smiled, took a silver spoon with a long handle and scooped it for her to eat, "I think it's a hot day, the slave maid will be put in the well town, and you will use your method of pickling strawberries to soak in honey, I think Miss Hot has no appetite this day, and it is good to eat refreshing." ”

Yi Yu saw what he liked, how could he be in a bad mood, eating the little red fruit beautifully, the depression that was originally in the Junzi Building in the morning was found by Changsun Xi disappeared, even if this peach blossom debt was recruited by Li Tai, he couldn't help but see him again.

"Yes, it's still your sweetness." was happy in her heart, and praised Pingtong without hesitation, but she didn't notice that Chen Qu, who was cleaning up half of her leftover dishes, had a white face.

"Mother-in-law, I'll feed you a taste." Yi Yu took a clean spoon from Guan Pingtong again, scooped it and handed it to Mrs. Zhou's mouth.

"Okay, just eat this red light fruit for your little girl, sweet and relishing, my old woman has a bad mouth, so she won't be greedy." Mrs. Zhou took a sip and refused to eat it.

The widow is more knowledgeable Mrs. Zhou, so she is not surprised that she knows this Shuzhong tribute fruit, and holds the pottery urn to feed her mother, Lu knows that this is Li Tai asked someone to send it, see that his daughter is happy, also ate two bites of meaning, asked her a few words about the morning competition, and took advantage of the sun, sent the widow back to the house to wash and sleep first.

March 13 is the third item of the art competition of the five colleges, the calligraphy competition. After yesterday's sweltering heat, today it was cloudy again, thinking that he was going to sit on the field for a long time, so Yu Yu put a single coat in his regular clothes, and when he went out, Lu Shi did not forget to ask Pingtong to bring an extra umbrella for emergency.

When I arrived at the school, a layer of clouds rose in the air, and in the gray sky, the sun was pitifully covered, and Yu Yu got out of the car, looked up at the top of her head, and thought to herself, if it rained halfway through, it would not be beautiful, but she wanted to fight quickly and take this brand, so early in her mind.

After waiting for a while, I saw Cheng Xiaofeng riding her red horse running from the corner of the street, turning over and landing on the ground, carefully tethering the horse to the tree in front of the dormitory, telling the porter to look at it, pulling the collar, and saying to the widow:

"This God, is it going to rain, I just washed the horse yesterday."

Good spirits are not bad spirits, before the two of them walked outside the gentleman's building, it rained in a hurry, and the remnant jade opened the umbrella and handed it to the tall Cheng Xiaofeng, covering the top of their heads, and it didn't take long for the rain to get bigger.

Cheng Xiaofeng thought about the horse that was still tied to the door, cursed in a low voice, heard the commotion nearby, turned his head to look at the students on the other side of the lawn holding the bookbags above their heads to keep out the rain, rushing forward like flies, a mess, snorting and laughing again, thinking that they were compared with others, but they still had umbrellas.

Cheng Xiaofeng brought back the snake gall wine given by the widow yesterday, and according to the explanation of the widow, she learned her words again, Mrs. Cheng did not blame him, Cheng Biting Jin opened the wine jar happily, this wine is not strong, he drank two glasses, but Mrs. Cheng carefully put away the rest of the wine.

"It seems that the rain can't stop for a while and a half, and it's not comparable in the morning," the two went up to the bamboo building, Cheng Xiaofeng poured a cup of hot tea for Yi Yu, and asked, "Why don't you go to the Mei Tower and ask?" ”

Yi Yu took a sip of smoking tea, thinking about seeing Li Tai, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Maybe I'll be notified later, and I'll take a look." ”

After another cup of tea, there was someone upstairs in Mei, but no one came out to say anything without listening to Zhong Ming, the students downstairs had begun to mumble noisily, and Yu Yu was urged by Cheng Xiaofeng a few times, so he had to put down the teacup and go to Meilou with an umbrella, knowing that Cheng Xiaofeng was afraid of seeing Mr. 's problem, so he didn't force her to follow.

There was a depression in the ground in front of the stairs, and the rain quickly accumulated in the pit, and Yu Yu lifted her skirt and lifted her feet to try a few times, about the length of her legs, and her shoes were wet from here, and she didn't find a way to go around.

"Long eyes are meant to be used, and you don't see puddles?"

Listening to this faint whisper, with a little sarcasm, Yi Yu straightened her complexion, turned her head with a smile, but at a glance, she saw the eldest grandson Xi behind Li Tai who was holding a small green umbrella and nodding at her with a smile, the joy in her heart disappeared, and she pulled the corners of her mouth, twisted her neck and broke off the palm on her collar, bowed her head and saluted.

"Your Highness."

"Running around in the rain." Li Tai loosened her collar and glanced at her, landing on the small piece of moisture on her shoulder.

"Well, I'll ask the doctor, it's raining in the morning, and it's not going to be a good match." Yi Yu took a small step back, lest the water from the tip of the umbrella gradually reach Li Tai, and a steward stood beside him, holding an umbrella for him with his arm raised.

Wei Wang Ye wore a moon-white shirt with a round neck today, a clean color, the placket and cuffs were edged with silver thread, and an emerald yellow leather belt stretched out the lean waist, and that face alone made people unable to take their eyes off, so worn, standing in the hazy rain, the surrounding things became the background, so that people could only accommodate such a person in front of them, and even the beautiful Changsun Xi on the side was also forcibly consumed by him.

"Let's go back and wait." Li Tai didn't care about wetting his sleeves, and reached out to pass through the rain curtain and handed a dry sweat towel over, if he didn't know that she was thin-skinned, he wouldn't mind helping her wipe it clean here.

Yu took the veil obediently, although he knew that he didn't want to see her in the rain, but seeing Li Tai step over the puddle in one step, Changsun Xi followed with an umbrella and stepped on the water, talking to him with a side smile on his face, and still twisted his eyebrows - this situation is not once or twice, even if she is generous, she can't help but feel unhappy.

The woman is sensitive, and she has long been aware of Changsun Xi's imminent play, she is really not interested in being an audience, but what is Li Tai doing, let her climb up the pole.

Rubbing the rain on her shoulders, Yi Yu looked at the figure that had disappeared on the stairs, and was trying to suppress the anger, her ears trembled, but she heard a strange laugh sounding down the back of her neck, mixed with a cool breath, so startled that she turned her head suddenly, but she didn't see half a figure in the rain.

Looking behind her a few more empty eyes, she pressed her suspicions, and when she turned around, she met a smiling face enlarged in the near future, her pupils shrank, she opened her mouth, and then bit the tip of her tongue again and suppressed the scream that reached her throat.

The two faces were facing each other, and under this umbrella, no one made a sound, until a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and there was a "boom", which split the strange silence.

"Alas, it's silly to see me."

A wet palm shook twice in front of her before it was about to be pressed against her face, but it was grabbed by the wrist and could not touch her face for a moment.

Yi Yu pulled away the hand, turned around with a still face, and walked back to the bamboo building with an umbrella, as if he hadn't seen half a person just now.

"Tsk, it's in vain that I came to the capital to look for you, it's so sad to be so cold."

"Who is the woman who followed the fourth child just now, I saw that they were gone, how could I leave you standing in the rain, really, look at him outside to take care of you in every way, it turned out that he returned to Beijing is like this, I knew it, I would have come to look for you Hey, little thing, why don't you ignore me, let me talk to myself, it's boring."

Yi Yu was pulled by his sleeves and had to stop outside the bamboo building, and was finally willing to turn his head to look at the soup chicken beside him.

"Yao Yidi, why are you still so verbose and annoying."
