Chapter 143: Speculation

Li Yao actually had a private meeting with a man in the palace?

Mrs. Li was taken aback when she heard this, and her eyes lit up:

"But who do you see?"

Xiangling shook her head, trying to remember:

"It was too far away, and the man was half-hidden in the corner, and he couldn't see clearly...... I only vaguely saw that it was a tall guard, dressed in silver armor......"

Silver Armor?

Then it's not someone from Jinwuwei......

But there are thousands of guards in the palace, who did Li Yao go to meet?

Thinking of Li Yao's abnormality these days, Mrs. Li couldn't help but think about it carefully.

first quietly handed over the letter and asked the Bai family to pick her up, and then flattered her grandmother and aunt, and today begged the Zhao family to take her into the palace......

Mrs. Li twisted her eyebrows slightly:

"Come back, grandma...... Didn't you ask about the fourth sister? ”

It's about Li Yao's reputation, no matter who she meets in private, if this matter spreads, the second room is like this now, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult for her to marry in the future......

Xiangling hurriedly said:

"The eldest young grandmother asked in a whisper on the way back, but the fourth girl refused to say anything......

Just after returning home, before the young grandmother mentioned this matter again, the fourth girl locked herself in the room and refused to see anyone..... The eldest young grandmother was afraid of forcing the four girls out of a bad way, so she didn't dare to break in, and asked the slave maid to come and talk to the county lord, see if you want to report this matter to the old lady? ”

Scold! Reversed her!

Mrs. Li strained her face slightly, and was about to reprimand a few words, but suddenly remembered something!

Li Yao has always rarely gone out of the house, don't say anything about the guards, even handkerchiefs...... But half a month ago, because she wanted to make her mother Bai's first seven, she went out of the house without permission, and Sheng Rubai sent her back......

That Sheng Rubai seems to be on an errand in the Soldiers and Horses Division at the moment, and he joins the army, and the person wearing silver armor today ...... Isn't it him?

Thinking about it like this, Mrs. Li felt more and more credible in her heart!

But that Sheng Rubai died tragically in the hands of Lu Xiao for some reason in his previous life, and he was afraid that he would not be able to stabilize in this life, if Li Yao was involved with this person, he would not be able to do anything good!

Mrs. Li thought about it for a while, and said to Xiangling:

"Let's put this matter off for the time being, grandmother doesn't have to talk about it first, don't let my sister-in-law be a bad person in the future......"

"Tomorrow, my second cousin will be humiliated, and when he returns home, I will talk to him first, and ask him to ask his fourth sister about the situation in private."

As soon as Xiangling heard this, her face loosened a lot, and she hurriedly bowed to Mrs. Li and thanked her:

"What the county lord said is very true! The second young master and the fourth girl have always had a deep brother and sister relationship, and they must be more suitable than our eldest and youngest grandmothers......"

Mrs. Li accepted her salute and instructed:

"The fourth girl, you still have to take care of your sister-in-law, you must be jailed! Send a few more mothers-in-law to guard the courtyard, don't let her give birth to the incident of the last time. ”

"And ...... Send a few capable people to keep an eye on them secretly, the fourth sister can't just happen to meet the guard today, someone must have passed the news these days. ”

When Xiangling heard this, her face turned white with fright.

"The county lord is saying that the fourth girl, she is ...... with others" privately?

Xiangling was a slave after all, so she naturally didn't dare to continue, so she hurriedly covered her mouth with a handkerchief and lowered her head to silence.

Nian Xia just opened the curtain and came in, and seeing that Xiangling's face was not very good, he hesitated and stepped forward to salute:

"County Lord, my aunt and grandmother just sent someone to ask you to go to Yanyu Building to talk."

Mrs. Li was a little surprised, how could the eldest aunt look for her at this hour? After thinking about it carefully, I was afraid that it was probably for today's Jin Wuwei selection, so I asked Nian Xia to comb his hair again and go to Yanyu Building.

Li Shu made tea, waited in the small flower hall, and when she saw Li Taiwei coming, she smiled on her face.

"Sister Wei'er, come and sit ......"

Mrs. Li stepped forward and saluted, pulled the corner of her skirt and sat opposite Li Shu.

Li Shu handed a cup of brewed Maojian tea to Li Taiwei and said with a smile:

"This tea was sent by your eldest cousin a few days ago, saying that the errand was good, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally rewarded it, you can taste it....."

Mrs. Li didn't dare to refuse, so she took a small bite and praised it a few times.

Li Shu smiled even more on her face and asked:

"You went to the palace today, have you ever seen your cousin?"

Mrs. Li shook her head slightly and said:

"My cousin didn't run for election today, and I didn't meet him on this trip to the palace."

Li Shu was surprised for a moment, frowned and asked:

"He didn't run?"

Li Taiwei thought about it, Ming Cheng's martial arts are average, if he runs for election today, he is only afraid that he will not be able to withstand a few rounds, but her eldest aunt has a good face, she did not go to the palace today, most likely because she was afraid that she would make peace with the king of Fenyang and make Ming Cheng suffer some criticism in public.

Mrs. Li cleared her thoughts and said:

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the errand next to his cousin, so he had to miss it. My cousin has already entered Jin Wuwei left and right, and this candidacy is just a formality, so my aunt doesn't have to take it to heart....."

Li Shu bowed her head, thinking that this was also the case, and couldn't help but turn her head and ask Mrs. Li again:

"Which son won the top spot today?"

Li Taiwei said truthfully:

"It's Lu Shizi of the Marquis of Changping."

Li Shu looked at her for a moment, and her face became a little solemn:

"Is that him?"

Looking at Li Taiwei sitting opposite, seeing that her expression was calm, and she was not as blushing and heartbeating as she mentioned her sweetheart, Li Shu couldn't sit still, and said tentatively with a handkerchief:

"Sister Wei thinks...... How is your cousin? ”

Mrs. Li immediately keenly captured the deep meaning in Li Shu's eyes, and thought for a moment before saying:

"My cousin has a gentle temperament and is a rare gentleman."

As soon as Li Shu heard this, her eyes lit up:

"Sister Wei is ...... wish?"

"Auntie!"

Before Li Shu finished speaking, she asked Li Taiwei to interrupt.

Mrs. Li looked at the eldest aunt with a frank gaze, and said without hesitation:

"Aunt takes a fancy to Ah Luan? Or do you fancy the forces behind Ah Luan? ”

Li Shu didn't expect that Li Taiwei could break through this layer in person, and asked directly, her face turned red in surprise, she opened her mouth, and said a little unspeakably:

"Nature is ......"

"If my aunt takes a fancy to Ah Luan, when my cousin and the girl from the other family were married, my aunt shouldn't have ......."

Li Taiwei still didn't give Li Shu a chance to continue, and said calmly,

"If my aunt is planning for the future of my cousin, then there is no need to point to the marriage, my cousin must have the full support of my Li family behind him! Don't say that it is incumbent upon my father to take care of his nephew, even Ah Luan will definitely help his cousin get back the position of power that belongs to him......"

"As for the ...... The eldest aunt still doesn't have to worry too much, they all say that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and the cousin is young and promising, and his mind is clear, and he will definitely be able to marry a beautiful family in the future. ”

Li Shu looked at Mrs. Li's unangry and self-righteous demeanor in a daze, how could she not connect the naughty and pampered little county lord in her childhood with the noble girl in front of her.

She took a deep breath and couldn't say anything more.

After drinking a cup of tea, Mrs. Li got up slightly to say goodbye to Li Shu.

Only then did he get out of the Yanyu Building, and a maid came to meet him, and bowed to Mrs. Li Weiying:

"County Lord, the fourth girl, please go to the Begonia Courtyard....."
