Chapter 22: Wuju - He Can't Protect Her 1
In the capital, in the courtyard of the Li family, Li Chengxian sat on the steps, plucked down a few dead grasses, put them in the palm of his hand, and blew them down to the ground with his mouth.
The servant Zhang Fan said, "Young master, aren't you going to see Miss Liu today?"
Li Chengxian hesitated on his face and said, "I go to her every day, will it not be good?"
Zhang Fan, who was expressionless, said: "What's the matter? You are single, and she is not married yet, so it's a big deal for you to marry her and enter the door." ”
Li Chengxian's expression was a little depressed, and he said in a low voice: "I have been wandering all the year round, marrying me is almost like being a widow, I don't want to marry another wife." ”
The real reason why his ex-wife divorced him was because of this, in fact, before the child died, his ex-wife already had someone else in her heart, and Li Chengxian just pretended not to know.
Zhang Fan said: "That Miss Liu is very happy every time she sees you, if you don't see her, she may be sad." ”
Li Chengxian thought of Liu Lu's eyes, and was a little moved.
Zhang Fan said: "Her family treats her so strictly, it's quite pitiful." ”
Li Chengxian stood up and prepared the carriage to go out.
A faint smile could be seen on Zhang Fan's expressionless face.
In Imperial Physician Li's mansion, a loud voice came from the door: "Hey, why are you here again?"
It was Li Dazhuang's voice.
Li Dazhuang's big, round eyes glared at Li Chengxian. He rolled up his sleeves and clenched his hands into fists, looking like he was going to fight. When he came back from watching the excitement of the martial arts competition yesterday, he learned that Liu Lu was taken out by Li Chengxian.
Li Chengxian smiled at Li Dazhuang and said kindly, "I'm here to find Miss Liu." ”
Li Chengxian's smile is very kind and soft, and it is easy to relax your guard.
Li Dazhuang unconsciously relaxed his fists, watched Li Chengxian and the servants pass by him, and entered the main house, he hurriedly followed.
Liu Lu heard the voice and walked out of the room. Seeing that the person who came was Li Chengxian, she burst into laughter.
The bright smile reflected on her soft and pure face, which made people feel a little dazed. For some reason, Li Chengxian felt that Liu Lu was becoming more and more beautiful, and when he saw her, he became more and more likely to lose his mind.
When Mrs. Li heard that Li Chengxian was going to take Liu Lu out again, she was worried that Imperial Doctor Li would be very unhappy when she found out, so she disagreed.
Liu Lu begged coquettishly: "Godmother, I'll go out for a while, I'll come back early, don't worry, I'll pay attention to safety." ”
Old Madam Li looked at Liu Lu, and then at Li Chengxian, who was soft-hearted, and said, "Lulu, it's not that I won't let you go out, but ...... Your stepfather and I are worried that you will get into trouble when you go out. ”
Liu Lu said coquettishly: "Godmother, don't worry, it'll be fine, I'll go out and come back." ”
......
The kind-hearted Mrs. Li saw that Liu Lu insisted on going out, so she had to let her, but she repeatedly explained to Li Chengxian that she must protect Liu Lu well.
Li Chengxian kindly agreed.
Li Dazhuang said to Mrs. Li: "Grandma, I'll go too, and I'll follow to protect my aunt." ”
Mrs. Li was about to agree.
At this time, Ding Sandao, who didn't know where to come from, said: "Mastermother, let me Ding San follow to protect the girl." ”
Ding San is the Li family's courtyard warrior, much stronger than Li Dazhuang, Old Madam Li nodded and said, "Okay, Ding San, you follow, be careful not to let the girl be bullied." ”
In the carriage, Li Chengxian asked Liu Lu curiously: "Miss Liu, did you rarely go out before?"
"Before you, I went out once. Liu Lu said lightly.
Li Chengxian opened his mouth in surprise.
Liu Lu added: "I have only been at my father-in-law's house for more than a month. ”
Li Chengxian asked, "Then where are your parents' house?"
Liu Lu said: "Liuzhou." But it's been four years since I left there, and I don't remember anything about it. ”
Li Chengxian asked: "Don't remember?"
Liu Lu said: "Well, I don't remember. I was injured two years ago, and it hurt my head, and I can't remember what happened before. ”
In the past four years since she left Liuzhou, where is she, Li Chengxian was faintly uneasy, but he didn't ask.
Li Chengxian asked, "Is the injury serious?" Can you remember it later?"
Liu Lu said: "My injuries have healed. As for the past, it doesn't matter if you can remember it or not. ”
......
The carriage arrived at Xiangshan in the northwest suburbs of the capital. Xiangshan is a mountain that is not too high, and the south side of the mountain is full of orange-red maple leaves, hanging with trees, and covering the ground, dyeing the whole mountain orange-red, which is extraordinarily beautiful. The cold wind blows on the body in early winter, with a refreshing coolness. Liu Lu picked up a maple leaf and played with it in her hand.
Li Chengxian took Liu Lu and walked to the top of the mountain, and it didn't take long to reach the top of the mountain.
Liu Lu walked feverishly, just as the cold wind on the top of the mountain blew away the heat on her body, and her whole body was comfortable. She straightened her blown-up hair and looked down the mountain.
Li Chengxian pointed to the huge city under the mountain and said, "Look, this is the capital below." At our feet is the northwest of the city, and the large venue in the north of the west is the martial arts field, and the wide street that comes out of the martial arts field divides the capital into two halves from east to west. ”
Liu Lu looked in the direction he was pointing, and there was a wide blue-green strip running through the middle of the capital. She said: "It turns out that there is Fenghe Avenue. ”
Li Chengxian said: "Hmm." In the middle of the north side is the imperial palace, on both sides of the palace are the military camps of the capital garrison and the residences of the princes and nobles, and most of the places next to them are granaries, stables and forging houses. The south side is divided into two cities, east and west. ”
Liu Lu pointed to the south-west direction outside the capital and asked, "Where is that? It seems to be a lake." ”
Li Chengxian said: "That is Jinming Lake, in spring and summer, the scenery is very beautiful, you can swim in the lake and cut boats." You see there, two mountains stand like gates, there is Longmen Mountain, where there is the royal summer palace. ”
While the two were talking, the servant Zhang Fan said, "Young master, someone has come up." ”
After a while, I heard a female voice say, "Hurry up, don't swallow slowly." ”
Soon after, seven men came up from the top of the hill, a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, and servants dressed as six attendants.
The girl's eyebrows and eyes were straight, and she had a bit of a heroine's domineering. She looked at Liu Lu defiantly and said condescendingly, "You are that Liu Beauty?"
Liu Lu frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"
The girl said: "My name is Tian Fangfang, and my grandfather is Tian Xiangguo." If you know each other, stay away from Minister Ye's son, Ye Chen. You are a broken flower and a willow and still want to marry into the Ye family, it is really shameless. Hmph, I don't think you're a good woman, it's shameless to date a man on this mountain. ”
Tian Fangfang is the granddaughter of Tian Xiangguo. The Tian family is still martial, Tian Fangfang has practiced martial arts since childhood, and her skills are good. Her voice was full of energy, and she looked at Liu Lu condescendingly.
Liu Lu said angrily: "You...... Don't slander people!"
Li Chengxian's face also showed anger, and he said, "Miss Tian, don't talk nonsense. ”
