Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 119 Chapter 118
Li Taiwei was dragged to a secluded place by Dafu just after leaving Hua'an Hall, and said:

"Princess, the Prime Minister is not in the mansion. Just now, when the maidservant went out to buy flower cakes, she encountered Huayan. She handed the maidservant a letter, saying that it was urgent. The maidservant lied to the old lady."

One hundred thousand in a hurry?
Li Tai shuddered slightly, could it be that Jing Zhe woke up?Hastily asked:

"Just this sentence? But what else did you say?"

Dafu shook his head, looked at Li Taiwei in a daze, and said:
"Huayan only gave the servant a letter, asking the servant to quickly teach it to the princess, and did not say anything else to the servant."

Dafu quietly handed the letter to Li Taiwei. Li Taiwei was stunned for a moment when he saw Lu Xiao's signature on the cover, and hurriedly hid the letter in his sleeve.

Thinking of Nian Xia following behind, before going into detail about this matter, he perfunctorily said to Dafu:
"Perhaps it is related to the assassination of the crown prince that day. Don't say anything about it. Let's go back to Fangfei Garden first."

The two returned to the room in a hurry, Li Taiwei found a reason to ask Nian Xia to go to Yunshuiju to arrange lunch, and after the arrangements were made, he opened the envelope and read the contents carefully.

Dafu couldn't read Chinese characters, so he asked anxiously:
"Princess, what did you say here?"

Mrs. Li frowned slightly, but did not make a sound.

The letter said that Jing Zhe woke up, and only said that when he sneaked into Li Wenxiu's room that day, he found a fragment of letter paper in the brazier.
Li Taiwei took out another piece of letter paper with strange characters drawn on it from the envelope, frowning into a ball.

The letter said that things were urgent that day, Jing Zhe only had time to see this word from the fragment
But this word is very unfamiliar, it doesn't seem to be Chinese, nor is it Xiliang, and it doesn't look like Beishuo.
Seeing that Li Taiwei didn't respond, Dafu couldn't help being curious and took a look, and blurted out:
"too!"

Li Taiwei turned his head:
"What did you say?"

Dafu pointed to the character on the letter paper and said:

"This is the ancient script of Xiliang, it's a Taizi! Some old tribes in Xiliang still use these ancient scripts"

Li Taiwei's eyes brightened:
"You might be sure?"

Dafu nodded:

"Anda taught some when I was a child, but the slaves didn't learn much, but I can recognize this word!"

Li Taiwei showed a look of shock, she remembered that Li Wenxiu was considered a spy of Beishuo in her previous life, how could she receive Xiliang letter paper?
Could this person be related to Xiliang?

What should be the interpretation of the word "too"?Prince?
The attack on Jingzhe was indeed before the assassination of the prince. Could it be said that Prince Chun's rebellion has something to do with Xiliang?

Li Taiwei broke out in sweat immediately.
"Do you know where my father went?"

Li Taiwei looked a little unhappy, and hurriedly accepted the letter, then asked Dafu to fetch a pen and paper, and wrote back a letter to Lu Xiao himself.

Dafu said:
"Master Xiang seems to have gone to the Ministry of Rites just now. I heard that the second master accidentally sprained his foot."

Sprained your foot?
Li Taiwei paused at the tip of his pen, raised his eyes and looked at Dafu:

"Who came back to report? Why didn't anyone report to Hua'an Hall?"

Dafu thought for a moment, then said:
"It seems that the servant next to the second master came back to report the letter. The master said that he would go there in person, so there is no need to worry the old lady."

Li Taiwei thought about it for a moment, and realized something was wrong.

The second uncle could just call an imperial doctor to see her, if it's not enough to take her back to the mansion to recuperate for a while, why bother to report to the mansion eagerly and ask her father to go to the Ministry of Rites in person?
Li Taiwei folded the written letter into an envelope, handed it to Dafu, and told her:
"You have to go to the Marquis of Changping to send this letter yourself. No one else can give it to you except Huayan and the prince!"

"Order someone to ask the concierge, the eldest son can go to the Ministry of Rites."

Dafu didn't dare to delay, so he put away the letter, and Nianxia opened the curtain to come in.

"Princess, Madam invites you to Yunshui Residence for lunch. Both the young prince and the eldest aunt are here today"

Li Taiwei responded, and asked Nian Xia to comb her hair again, changed her clothes and went to Yunshuiju.

When they arrived at Yunshuiju, Zhaohe was talking with Li Shu, and Mingcheng sat beside him with an unnatural expression.

After Li Taiwei asked, she found out that it was the Chen family, Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs who was engaged to Ming Cheng, who disliked these scandals in the backyard of King Fenyang, and began to regret the marriage.In private, I asked a matchmaker to come to Li Shu's place, and wanted to make the two families break up the engagement in a more peaceful manner.

Li Shu cried anxiously:

"Tell me what we can do Mingcheng in the future?"

Zhaohe said a few words of consolation, and he also knew that if something went wrong with Mingcheng's marriage contract, it might be even more difficult to find a suitable noble daughter in the future.

Li Taiwei thought for a moment, although Mingcheng now has the title, but it is just an empty shell, the fief and mansion are in Pingzhou, besides, the King of Fenyang is still alive, he has reconciled with his wife, and his son has replaced him with the title, if the girl from the Chen family marries in , Can I show her a good face in the future?

But in the previous life, Ming Cheng broke his leg, and the Chen family didn't send anyone to visit, so they divorced immediately, Li Taiwei felt that it would be good to break up with such a family at this time.

"Cousin has seen Chen Ping'er?"

Li Taiwei suddenly asked a question, causing Mingcheng to be stunned for a moment.

"Chen Ping'er, your fiancee!"

Seeing that he didn't react, Li Taiwei reminded him again.

Mingcheng blushed immediately, lowered his eyes and shook his head.

"Oh, she looks average, but she has a bad temper."

Mrs. Li recalled in detail,

"I once had an argument with the third girl in Master Xu's house, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, over a piece of clothing, and even ordered someone to beat up the servants of the Xu family, and was almost torn apart by the third girl."

As soon as the words fell, Li Shu stopped crying. Everyone looked over, and even Ming Cheng was surprised.

"Is this for real?"

Li Taiwei glanced at the eldest aunt and said:

"Even so many girls saw what happened at the Hundred Flowers Banquet in Duanjun Palace last year. Such a family doesn't deserve my aunt's sorrow."

"My cousin is very handsome, what kind of daughter-in-law can't be found? Since the Chen family has such thoughts, before the girl of the Chen family has met her cousin, the aunt should cut off the Chen family's thoughts as soon as possible."

"I'm afraid my aunt doesn't know. If the girl from the Chen family has met her elder cousin, I'm afraid you won't be able to drive her away with a stick."

These words meant to make fun of Mingcheng, Zhaohe couldn't help laughing, Mingcheng's face was flushed red, and he gave Li Taiwei a helpless look.

Li Taiwei spoke to Ming Cheng very solemnly:

"I know most of the noble girls in Beijing. If my cousin usually gets something interesting and good, think about your sister and me. Later, I will arrange a good marriage for you!"

Mingcheng was almost laughed at by her:
"You are a girl, you don't know how to panic!"

Li Taiwei pursed her lips, and said confidently:
"I only have two unmarried elder brothers left, you and Li Pu. If you marry the powerful Jinmen, I won't bother to deal with them? Isn't it your sister and me who are tired?"

Everyone laughed, even Li Shu's expression eased, her heart paused, and she looked at Li Taiwei with subtle eyes.
