Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 123
Li Taiwei clutched the shark bead in his sleeve, his gaze was heavy, and he signaled Dafu to continue talking.

Dafu leaned closer to Li Taiwei's ear and said:
"I heard from the little maid that the princess had slept soundly the night before, but suddenly she screamed in the middle of the night, saying that she saw a figure floating past the window and heard a baby crying outside..."

"The maids have searched inside and outside the Qiwu Palace. Where can there be half a person? The nuns reasoned that it was the cat called Chun, which shocked the princess, but the princess didn't believe it, so she insisted that she saw it with her own eyes. The woman of the year floated past her window..."

"That night, the princess had a fever again... The empress told everyone to hide this matter, she only said that the princess had caught the cold, and no one was allowed to leak the news..."

Purple shirt woman?baby?
Li Taiwei was a little confused.

Although Chang Ping is not very courageous, but he has never believed in ghosts and gods, to scare her out of illness, could it be that she is really possessed by evil spirits?

"Is Nanny Yu still in the mansion?"

"When the maidservant came, Madam Yu had just left, and Master Xiang asked the housekeeper to send her out of the house in person."

Dafu thought for a while, then said:

"When Nanny Yu left, she was holding a black brocade box in her arms, which looked very precious..."

Hearing what Dafu said, Li Taiwei guessed that her father did not accept the dragon and phoenix purple gold bracelet, and felt a little relieved.

"Where is my father now?"

Li Taiwei was worried about Li Wenxiu's affairs, and wanted to talk to Li Sheng as soon as possible.

"Master Xiang just asked the old lady to go to Hua'an hall... The old lady also sent a message that the two rooms will have dinner at her place tonight."

Mrs. Li felt a little strange, since Bai's death, her grandmother had never asked the two families to have a meal together.

Suddenly he remembered that Li Qin was injured only today, and wondered if he could cover it up at night...

"Alright, you can go back to Fangfei Garden with me first, call Nian Xia, ask her to prepare some silk thread, and teach me how to tie a net later..."

Dafu heard that, the boss with his mouth open:

"The county chief learns this?"

Mrs. Li glanced at her slightly:
"how?"

Dafu hurriedly said:

"My servant heard from Mama Tian that the princess was not good at girls since she was a child..."

Li Taiwei stared blankly:
"How difficult can it be to make a network?"

However...it's really too early to say...

In Fangfei Garden, Nian Xia took a look at the semi-finished product in Li Taiwei's hand, and felt a thump in his heart, but he didn't dare to show the slightest bit on his face.

"Why don't you teach the princess something simpler?"

Li Taiwei just wanted to deal with it randomly, she had so many things to worry about, how could she get in trouble?

Immediately waved his hand and said:

"No, no, that's all! I look good..."

Dafu leaned forward curiously and took a look, then stopped talking and said:
"That's it... Lu Shizi can't wear it?"

Li Taiwei stared:
"He loves it or not!"

After saying that, he took the tied net in his hand and looked around, and said to Nianxia:
"How about...give me yours too..."

..........................................

Due to a delay in making connections, Li Taiwei was a little late for dinner.

There are quite a few people sitting in Hua'an hall, but it lacks the usual enthusiasm, Li Taiwei glanced around, and sure enough, he didn't see his second uncle and Li Yao Mingcheng who were specially recruited by the prince into the Jinwu Guard. eat.

"Why did Miss Wei come here? Hurry up and take your seat!"

Mrs. Li urged.

Li Taiwei went forward to salute everyone, and sat down beside Li Pu.

I haven't seen him for a long time, but Li Pu has lost a lot of weight, and seems to have grown a lot taller, with a faint stubble on his chin, and he really looks a bit masculine.

"Second brother,"

Li Taiwei called softly, leaned into his ear and asked in a low voice,
"Is Second Uncle's injury more serious?"

Li Pu's eyes were a little cautious, he forced a smile, and shook his head with her:
"It doesn't matter, I've already taken the medicine, just rest for a while and it will be fine."

"I heard that you were also injured, I haven't been able to see you yet..."

As Li Pu spoke, two points of disappointment appeared in his eyes,

"Are you well?"

Li Taiwei knew that because of Bai's death, the two families would never be able to return to the past.As a sinful woman, Bai's coffin was not allowed to enter the mansion, and even her body was not allowed to be buried in Li's ancestor's grave, but was sacrificed in Yunye nunnery.

Li Pu wanted to keep his filial piety for the Bai family, so naturally he couldn't come to the Spring Garden.

Li Taiwei felt sorry, so she deliberately said:

"The wound on my back is not healed yet, and it still hurts a little. I heard that you have a good medicine for wound sores. Come back and give me some relief?"

Upon hearing this, Li Pu hurriedly said:

"Success! I'll ask Rong Jin to deliver it in a while. My medicine is really useful. Every time I get beaten, it will be cured the next day!"

There was a smile in Li Taiwei's eyes, Li Pu was still a child at heart, only a few words, as if he could go back to the past again.

"What are you two brothers and sisters muttering about?"

Li Shu looked this way and said with a smile:
"Could it be that Sister Wei got into some trouble again and asked Brother Pu to help copy books in private?"

Everyone smiled, before Li Taiwei could explain, Li Shu said again:
"If you call your cousin to copy the book, you cousins ​​should be closer..."

As soon as these words came out, Li Sheng's couple and Li Rui's couple all changed their expressions.

Zhaohe glanced at Li Sheng, and then at Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li heard that Nanny Yu had brought the purple gold bracelet in the afternoon, so she asked Li Sheng to go over and ask her. Li Sheng told her about Li Taiwei and Lu Xiao in detail, and then asked Mrs. Li if she agreed with Li Taiwei. this marriage.

Originally because of Li Qian's matter, Mrs. Li was always feeling a little depressed.But hearing that Lu Xiao sacrificed his life to save Li Taiwei that night, and even made a promise to let his son-in-law take the surname of Li, he felt much more at ease.

Thinking of Lu Xiao secretly bringing her a few jars of Jinling's sweet-scented osmanthus wine from time to time, he came here for Sister Wei... Mrs. Li also stopped thinking about taking Qiao.

After thinking about it, Lu Hou won the emperor's heart. Not only did he hold a heavy army, but his majesty also promised him the forbidden army, which is enough to show his trust.

If Li and Lu's two families can get married, they can be regarded as the right family and avoid a lot of future troubles...

After a long conversation in the afternoon, Mrs. Li was unable to refute after all, and acquiesced to Li Sheng and Zhaohe's decision.

But right now, Li Shu's words made Mrs. Li's heart skip a beat.She turned to look at Li Shu, without saying a word, turned around and told Nanny Sun to start serving dishes.

Li Shu made Mrs. Li feel inexplicable at this glance. She only heard that Li Sheng politely rejected the empress's intention to marry the Li family. It stands to reason...Mingcheng should be the best candidate...

Suppressing her uneasiness, Li Shu pretended to be ignorant, chatted and laughed with Zhaohe, and then served Mrs. Li's meal in person.

Mrs. Zhao naturally understood the meaning of Li Shu's words, silently glanced at Li Taiwei, and then quietly pulled Li Rui's sleeve under the table.

Li Rui looked at Mrs. Zhao calmly, without saying a word, and put a piece of lotus root in her bowl.

Li Taiwei guessed a little bit, so it's not easy to point it out. Anyway, her parents are in charge of this matter, so she doesn't need to worry about it!
After returning to the Spring Garden after dinner, Li Taiwei knocked on Li Sheng's study.
