Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 16
By the time Mrs. Shao brought Nanny Cui and Nanny Lu back, Li Lijun had already taken a nap.

Lu Ying, another maid of Concubine Dou, also came together.

Both Nanny Cui and Nanny Lu looked sluggish and pale, and Mrs. Shao couldn't stop crying, and she knew that something bad had happened.

Lu Ying smiled sweetly in front of Li Lijun, showing a small dimple: "Our princess said that the fourth lady was injured, and the nuns who served by the former princess didn't come for a long time. It's too dereliction of duty. She really couldn't see it, so she ordered the slave to reprimand her. When she arrived in the front hall, the slave couldn't find anyone everywhere. Only when she saw Mrs. Shao next to the fourth lady, did she know that the two nuns were detained in the stable by the Chen family. Yes. They threatened the two nuns, saying that they would sell their family and even their relatives if they didn’t agree to the request! Mrs. Shao had nothing to do with the Chen family, so she brought someone over to take the two nuns. Mammy was rescued. Don't worry, fourth lady, both mammies are safe and sound. Our concubine said that it is not the Chen family's turn to intervene in the Sui Palace to teach them a lesson!"

Li Lijun was only surprised: "In our Sui Palace, the servants of our Sui Palace were threatened by the Chen family in a stable. Does this sound like a dream? Is the Chen family so capable? Our family is like this Sit and watch?" She looked at the two nuns Cui and Lu, "The nuns can't resist, can't they call someone? How dare the Chen family be escorted from the front hall to the barn?"

The nuns all looked ashamed.

Lu Ying smiled, and revealed her dimple again: "Si Niangzi didn't know, but Mother Ma was there at the time. She has always had face in the palace, and others thought it was the order of the heir, so they never stopped her."

Mother Ma?
It's been so long, Li Lijun couldn't remember which one it was for a while, or Erhong reminded her: "It's her?! Her granddaughter was an accomplice to the third lady, which made our little lady miserable. She actually has the idea of ​​the little lady's property?!"

Li Lijun immediately remembered.Mother Ma, this is Xiao Yang's wet nurse, who was married into the Sui Palace as a dowry.Her daughter-in-law Ma Niangzi is Li Yanjun's wet nurse and Cuihua's mother.Because Xiao Yang's family is favored by the heir king Li Dai, Mother Ma is also very important in the Sui Palace. Although she is not a serious mother in charge of affairs, she can speak for many things.

Li Lijun couldn't help but smiled: "It's so interesting. Cuihua helped my third sister take my life, but her grandmother came to the Chen family to threaten the nuns around me, and wanted to take away the property left by my grandfather. Normally speaking How can the few powerless members of the Chen family have the guts to come to the Sui Palace to act wildly? As long as I am still alive, the Sui Palace cannot allow the Chen family to rob their granddaughter. But if I die... ..."

Mrs. Shao was shocked when she heard it, and quickly interrupted her: "Don't say such things, little lady, it's unlucky!"

Li Lijun glanced at her, and continued: "...If I die, according to the tradition, the dowry property I inherited from my mother, will I have to return to the Chen family? Aunt and grandma are all reasonable. Even if they are unwilling, they will not use power to overwhelm them. However, if Lady Yang has a way to subdue the Chen family and get the property first, I, Aye, will definitely be happy, and neither will Aweng and Grandma. What can I say, after all, the meat has rotted in the pot, and it has never been easy for outsiders to go.”

She paused, then looked at the two nuns: "At that time, who cares what happened to the nuns? And who will make decisions for them?"

Cui Lu's two nuns looked even more ugly.Cui Nanny gritted her teeth and asked: "Little lady, the third lady really said that they ordered someone to do my lady's death?!"

"I got hurt like this because the third sister wanted to kill me, could it be fake?" Li Lijun glanced at her, then turned to look at Lu Ying, "Lady Yang always said that she didn't know that the third sister would kill me, and said The third sister was just acting impulsively, but her confidants and mothers all ran to seize my property at the same time. If she didn't know, how could it be such a coincidence? It's a pity that I didn't die according to her idea, Otherwise, everything is going well for her at this time, and she has made meritorious service in front of Aye, she might not be so happy, maybe she won't be able to pretend to be sad in front of my mother's spirit."

Lu Ying blinked with a smile: "Don't worry, Si Niangzi, the princess will definitely make decisions for you!"

What Li Lijun wanted was her words, and he sighed: "My aunt has already gone, and Aye is all about Yang Niangzi and the third sister, and even turned a blind eye when they wanted to harm the elder brother and eldest sister. At my age I’m still young, and I’m lonely at home, I really don’t know what to do, so I ask my grandmother to take pity on me.”

Lu Ying bowed to her: "Don't worry, Si Niangzi, I will pass the message on to the princess."

Lu Ying resigned and left, only her own people were left in the house, and Li Lijun didn't bother to go around in circles anymore, so she ordered Erhong to close the door, and asked the mothers and Mrs. Shao to come to her, and asked directly: "Tell me, Mrs. Chen What on earth do you want to do? Did they already know that something would happen to me today? "

Cui Nanny showed hesitation: "Little lady, don't worry, we were unprepared today, and we will never fall into other people's schemes in the future! Whether it is the safety of the little lady, or the property left by the grandfather and the lady, we will protect it." of."

Nanny Lu is more frank than Nanny Cui: "The Chen family never revealed that something will happen to the little lady, and the servants don't know about it. They just think that the young lady is still young and doesn't know how to run a store. All business matters are left to the servants." They are holding it in their hands. They said that they are afraid that our slaves will bully the master, so they should ask the shop to go there first and help take care of it. There is some truth in this, but the few gentlemen from the Chen family are not very shrewd on weekdays. For capable people, if the store is handed over to them, what can they do?
"We told them that we should let the original shopkeepers take care of it first. If the gentlemen don't trust us, just check the accounts from time to time. When the little lady grows up, we will hand over the property to the little lady. It is in the hands of the lady. But the gentlemen refused to agree, they insisted that we were hiding traitors, and wanted to sell us all, even the shopkeepers. We thought how could the Chen family sell people from the palace? But Ah Ma Just follow them, she must have tricked the Chen family!"

Li Lijun raised his eyebrows: "Madam Lu thinks...the Chen family and Mama Mama are not in the same group? But I don't believe it! Even if my mother dies, I am still young, and the confidantes left behind by my mother can still be handy." Everyone betrays the master, but no one can be trusted? I still need someone from an outside family who is separated by a few layers of blood to manage the property for me? Even if I am short of people, is there still a shortage of people in the palace? The Chen family is also a big family. You can't even hear such a lie, can you?"

Nanny Lu hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Young lady is smart, so how can I not know that the gentlemen of the Chen family have bad intentions? It's just... anyway, they are also members of the old man's clan, and they can be regarded as relatives of the lady and the young lady. The lady has already Going to go, the heir king is all about the west courtyard, and he doesn't care about the little lady. If you don't even have the help from the outside family, how will the little lady live in the future? I'm afraid that you will be wronged in the palace, and no one will take care of you. support."

Li Lijun disapproved: "I almost lost my life, and they didn't support me. They even sold my attendants and took away my property. What is the purpose of such help?! Besides, Mrs. Yang's daughter almost died Killed me, she was also an accomplice, and their mother and daughter are my enemies now. The Chen family colluded with my enemies and wanted to seize my property. Is it a relationship?"

She raised her eyes and stared at the two nuns: "If any of our people want to go back to the Chen family, or switch to the Yang family, just tell me, I will never stop them from having a good future!"

The expressions of the two nuns suddenly changed drastically.
