Ling Yun, who was already walking on the road, knew nothing about what was happening in the capital!
But what Ling Yun didn't know was that the day after he went to the small courtyard, a person happened to appear at the entrance of the courtyard. Unfortunately, the visitor didn't know about his arrival, and instead stayed in the courtyard for a while.
Until he left that day, the aunt he bumped into that day appeared at the gate of the yard again. Seeing the gate of the yard open, he couldn't help but be surprised and whispered, "Huh? Why is there someone here again today?"
Then he stuck his head in and shouted tentatively inside, "Is there anyone there? Is there someone in there?"
As soon as she finished speaking, someone suddenly walked out of the house and looked at her. This sight made her extremely surprised.
"Miss Zixuan, why are you back?"
While he was talking, the aunt came up to him with a cheerful smile on her face, as if she was very happy for the visitor to come back.
When Zixuan saw the visitor, she smiled knowingly, then saluted him and said, "Zixuan has met Aunt Yang."
Aunt Yang waved her hand and said a little sheepishly, "Miss Zixuan, please don't be polite."
After a slight pause, he asked doubtfully, "By the way, Miss Zixuan, when did you... come back?"
Zixuan was stunned and replied, "I just arrived yesterday."
"oh!"
Aunt Yang responded softly and whispered, "Just arrived yesterday?"
Then he took a breath, clapped his hands, and exclaimed, "Oh! This is such a pity!"
"Why, Aunt Yang, what happened?"
Aunt Yang was silent for a while, tilted her head and pouted as she recalled, "I passed by here two days ago. I wanted to come in and clean the yard, but I happened to see two people coming out of the yard. Well~ those two people... looked like
It's more like a master-servant relationship. I vaguely remember the young man saying that he was about to leave the capital and wanted to catch up with you..."
When Zixuan heard this, she was startled and asked hurriedly, "Aunt Yang, you mean, a young man has been here before?"
Aunt Yang nodded, then lowered her head and said thoughtfully, "Well! A young man did come here. When I saw them at first, I thought they were a thief, but I saw that the young man behaved quite well.
, you look like a scholar no matter how you look at it. In the end, the young man explained that he and you are good friends, so I didn’t ask too much..."
Before she finished speaking, when she looked up, the person who was still talking to her had disappeared. When she turned around and looked around, she realized that Miss Zixuan was already sitting on the horse, looking very worried.
Seeing this, Aunt Yang couldn't help but ask, "Zi...Miss Zixuan, you...where are you going?"
Zixuan immediately responded, "Aunt Yang, Zixuan remembered that there is still something that has not been dealt with. Now she is in a hurry to leave. See you again in the future if you have a chance!"
After saying that, without waiting for Aunt Yang's reaction, she drove away on her horse.
Li Mansion.
"Master, there is someone outside the door asking to see you!"
Li Chengyou was still comforting his wife, but unexpectedly Uncle Lai's voice suddenly came from outside the door, which made him stunned for a moment. Then he straightened his clothes, coughed twice, opened the door and said, "Uncle Lai, who came to see you?"
Lai Bo paused for a moment and said thoughtfully, "Master, I don't know. This visitor looks strange and I have never seen him before. I just looked at his appearance and found that he has a handsome appearance and a tall and straight posture... But
~Looking carefully, I found that the person who came was a woman, wearing a black outfit and looking like a warrior."
Li Chengyou frowned, took a breath, and murmured to himself, "Woman? Warrior?"
He had never thought that he knew such a woman, so he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Lai, have you ever asked clearly that this person wants to see me?"
"Sir, I have asked you clearly. I really want to see you."
Li Chengyou lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally decided, "In that case, let's bring her in!"
"Yes, sir."
Lai Bo accepted the order and retreated.
When Uncle Lai came in again, there was a woman behind him. Her hair in front half covered her face, but she could still see her pure black eyes and her small cherry-red mouth... exquisite facial features, matching
It's just right. The only drawback is that the skin is a little yellowish and looks far less fair than that of an ordinary woman.
Before Li Chengyou spoke, he only glanced at the visitor and noticed that the visitor was staring at him. This look was cold and judgmental, as if he had hatred for him, but he was restrained and did not feel the slightest emotion.
Aggression.
Just when he was confused, the visitor asked coldly, "Are you Li Chengyou?"
Li Chengyou had been an official for many years, so naturally he would not be intimidated by her cold gaze. When he heard her speak, Li Chengyou did not feel any pressure at all, so he only responded lightly, "That's me."
Then he stroked his beard and asked, "Who are you? I came to visit you suddenly. Do you have something important to do?"
Faced with Li Chengyou's inquiry, the visitor did not answer. Instead, he sneered and said sarcastically, "Humph! The dignified minister of the Ministry of Industry and the third-rank minister of the imperial court can't even protect his beloved disciple. How ridiculous, how ridiculous!"
"you…"
As soon as these words came out, Li Chengyou was so angry that he choked for a moment. He stared at her coldly, suppressed his voice and said expressionlessly, "I don't say whether I recognize you or not. Even if I do, this is my family matter. It doesn't matter.
You are a little girl pointing fingers, if you have nothing else to do, please come back!"
Then he vigorously flicked his sleeves and said through gritted teeth, "Uncle Lai, see the guest off!"
When it comes to his apprentice, no matter how good his temper is, Li Chengyou can't control himself, so he doesn't look good.
But what shocked him was that the visitor did not just retreat. Instead, he was indignant and asked, "What? To tell the truth, Mr. Li became angry because of this? Is it possible that the so-called Mr. Li only has such a small mind?"
Li Chengyou sneered and said contemptuously, "It's ridiculous, it's simply ridiculous. I saw that you are a first-level girl, and I didn't want to argue with you. I never thought that your tone would become sharp and aggressive. Please name yourself and let me see this.
It’s the girl from that family who doesn’t understand the rules.”
"Master Li is so thoughtful, so I have no comment!"
Seeing that the woman did not tell her whereabouts, Li Chengyou couldn't help but sarcastically said, "Humph! It's really unsightly for a dignified first-class woman to act like a man!"
"you…"
As soon as these words came out, the woman subconsciously shook hands and pursed her lips, but finally did not speak.
Just when the woman didn't know what to do, Mrs. Li came out at some point and retorted, "My master's words are too much. I don't think there is anything inappropriate at all."
She looked at the woman with tender eyes and a smile on her face. She slowly walked towards her until she was in front of the woman. Mrs. Li stopped and whispered softly, "My child, please tell me where you come from.
Do you recognize Yuner?"
"I…"
The woman was stunned for a moment and hesitated to speak. She was obviously stunned by Mrs. Li's gentle treatment.
Mrs. Li whispered again, "Child, don't be afraid. Tell me, is it because of Yun'er that you are so angry?"
