Red Mansion Huacai

Chapter 338 Avoiding Seeing

The tip of the knife was against his neck, and there was a big tree behind him, so Li Mengqing had no way to avoid it. He looked up at the incense master with hatred, but saw that he was only shot in the left side of his abdomen, and he didn't think he would die for a while.

Li Mengqing felt annoyed and secretly blamed himself for being too panicked just now. Otherwise, at least he could have killed the thief, and even if he died, he would have lived up to the love of his father and uncle.

"Little bitch!" The incense master covered his lower abdomen and raised the ghost-head knife high in one hand.

At this time, the man who held Li Mengqing hostage said, "Master, the hawks and dogs are coming!"

Li Mengqing panted and looked up, he heard a rustling sound approaching, and figures gathered in the lush greenery. In a blink of an eye, guards wearing soft armor and holding guns and bows came out from the forest.

Li Mengqing was suspicious, not knowing which family the guards were from, but seeing how agile they all were, he thought they must be from some noble family. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a figure, hidden among the guards, wearing moon-white clothes, holding a musket and aiming twice, before frowning and lowering his head.

It's him! Jingling Bo Li Weijian!
Li Mengqing bit her lower lip and thought to herself, although Jingling Bo had fought in the battlefield once, she was quite disapproving when her father mentioned it. She only thought that the man knew nothing about military books and strategies, and that he was able to defeat Xiao Ce Ling face to face only because he was given money!

However, this person is full of wisdom and it is possible that he can find a way to break the impasse right now.

In a blink of an eye, the guards were 20 steps away. The man holding Li Mengqing turned and hid beside him, with the blade across Li Mengqing's jaw. He frowned and shouted, "Stop! If you dare to go down again, I will send this little bitch to see the King of Hell first!"

Li Mengqing saw the guards looking at Li Weijian in the middle. Li Weijian frowned and thought, then raised his left fist. Then the guards scattered around, some drew their bows and some raised their guns, surrounding the two thieves.

Li Weijian, who was among them, threw his musket on the ground, raised his hands and walked forward slowly: "I say, will you ever stop the Bagua Sect? If you want to rebel, go and fool the people, coerce them, gather tens of thousands of people, first break into the county, then raise the banner of rebellion to gather heroes from all over the mountains, maybe you will succeed? Tell me, what's the point of you carrying out terrorist attacks everywhere, causing the wrath of heaven and people but no one to blame you?"

The incense master cursed, "You bastard officials! It's not that you exploited us too much and persecuted the disciples of the Bagua Sect everywhere, so why would we kill the officials and rebel?"

Li Weijian slowly moved forward, but he was not forgiving: "What you said, you are allowed to fool the people, but the government is not allowed to set things right? That doesn't make sense! Eh? This fellow was shot? Look, there is blood all over the floor, at least half a pound, right? Do you know that an ordinary person only has nine pounds of blood, but if he loses three pounds, he will be in trouble..."

"Stop!"

Li Weijian paused, slowly lowered his hands, and said with a smile: "My musket can be thrown far away, what are you afraid of?" He bowed slightly while speaking: "Oh, I am General Yan Fengzhen, what is your name?"

The incense master frowned and said sternly: "Stop talking nonsense and make way for me, or I will chop off this little bitch's head right away!"

Li Weijian said softly, "Rude. You two did your job too crudely. It would have been fine if you had set up an ambush, but you didn't know who you had ambushed. It would have been fine if you had held a princess or a county lady hostage, but you held my little one hostage... Tsk, sacrificing more than 20 lives, how unworthy is that?"

The incense master asked suspiciously, "She? Is this little girl the wife of a dog official like you?"

"It's guaranteed to be replaced if it's fake."

After Li Weijian finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand to his side and glanced at Li Mengqing. Li Mengqing immediately understood and said, "Brother, don't worry about me..."

"Shut up!"

The incense master shouted loudly, and the blade against Li Mengqing's neck moved a little closer. Tiny bloodstains appeared on the neck, and blood flowed along the blade and dripped from the tip of the blade.

Li Weijian hurriedly said, "Eh? Think carefully, if you two tear up the ticket now, you two will not survive?" As he spoke, the five fingers of his right hand, which was still a palm's distance away from the gun handle, trembled back and forth. Li Weijian suddenly looked past the three people and looked behind him. He frowned and shouted, "Datu, stop it!"

The incense master and the man were startled and could not help but glance back.

At this moment, Li Weijian looked at Li Mengqing with a serious look, and Li Mengqing immediately understood what he meant. Li Mengqing couldn't help holding her breath, staring at Li Weijian five steps away with wide eyes.

Li Weijian moved, his right hand suddenly grasped the gun handle, and the next moment, bang——

Li Mengqing saw two columns of smoke spurting out from the muzzle of the revolver. At the same time, Li Mengqing tilted his body to avoid the big tree behind him and fell backwards suddenly.

The sharp blade swept past her cheek, and in her eyes were towering pines, and higher still were blue sky and white clouds, with eagles circling with wings spread. Her ears were buzzing from the close-range musketry, and she could only faintly hear the tiny sounds that seemed to come from the sky.

A feather arrow flew past his head at high speed, and a handful of blood spurted out in an instant. The blood drops fell like red plums in the garden of the palace in the twelfth lunar month. In an instant, the blood dripped onto his cheek. Li Mengqing blinked, and then the sounds around him gradually became clearer.

"Master, the bandit chief is dead!"

"This one is dead too!"

A rough face suddenly appeared in Li Mengqing's field of vision. The man blinked, turned his head and shouted, "The princess is fine!"

There was a rustling sound of footsteps, and the next moment, Li Weijian's face appeared in the field of vision, and then he stretched out his hand towards Li Mengqing.

Li Mengqing walked in front of the Yama Palace, stretched out his hand in a daze, and was then pulled up by a warm and powerful big hand.

Li Weijian in front of him blinked, let go of his hand, and then bowed and smiled: "My princess is so brave. She is so brave that she can remain calm even when facing a mountain collapse. She has the demeanor of a prince..."

Li Mengqing blinked and suddenly burst into tears: "I, I almost died! Wuuuuuu——"

Li Weijian scratched his head and wondered, was this princess so frightened just now that she just came to her senses?
The girl, who had not yet reached the age of marriage, cried so hard that she had to say a few words of comfort even for the sake of her immediate superior, the King of Loyalty and Bravery. Li Weijian thought about it and squatted down. Before he could persuade her, Ding Rusong came close and whispered, "Master, it is not good to stay here for long because of the high mountains and dense forests. There is no telling if a thief who has escaped the net will suddenly shoot a cold arrow."

Makes sense.

Li Weijian said: "Princess——"

Just as she started talking, Princess Yongshou wiped her tears and stood up.

Li Weijian was secretly happy, thinking that this girl was quite sensible.

He looked her up and down and saw only a trace of blood on her neck, so he asked, "Did the princess get hurt anywhere else?"

Li Mengqing shook his head, sniffed and said, "It's okay. Thanks to Jingling Bo for saving me, otherwise I would have been in danger. Let's go."

"it is good."

Li Weijian agreed, stepped aside to let Li Mengqing pass, and walked down the mountain with her. After a few steps, Li Mengqing stumbled. Li Weijian raised his hand to support her, and when he looked down, he saw that the embroidered shoe on the princess' right foot had come undone...

Li Mengqing raised his eyes, and their gazes crossed. Li Mengqing was immediately embarrassed. Li Weijian was free and easy, and said: "In an emergency, we should make decisions based on our own situation. Otherwise, I will carry the princess down the mountain on my back."

"Okay, thank you for troubling Uncle Jingling."

Li Weijian secretly complained, this girl is really rude. Yes, there is a difference between the high and the low. Princess Yongshou has been spoiled since she was a child. I am afraid that ordinary people are just servants in her eyes.

Li Weijian took a step forward and bowed slightly, and then he felt a figure pressing against his back. Li Weijian placed his hands on both thighs and felt that Li Mengqing's figure was light...but the figure in front of him was quite attractive.

Her two arms were wrapped around her neck, revealing a section of her white and tender arms, and her little hands were stained with dirt.

Li Weijian walked down without saying a word. Ding Rusong came over and asked, "Master, what should we do?"

Li Weijian thought, "I'm afraid we'll have to take a detour to get to Xiaoci County, and it'll be dark before we get there."

Ding Rusong said: "That's right. Besides, the mountains are high and the forests are dense. Who knows how many strong men are hiding there."

Li Weijian nodded and asked, "How far is it from the mountain?"

Ding Rusong replied: "It's only ten miles of mountain road at most, and another twenty miles to Pinggu County."

Li Weijian ordered: "Let your brother take two people to Xiaoci County to report the news, and the rest will follow me to Pinggu."

After the plan was finalized, Ding Rusong hurried to find Ding Rufeng for instructions.

All the guards knew that the girl Li Weijian was carrying was a delicate girl, so they did not dare to be careless at this moment and were scattered and alert.

Li Mengqing lay on Li Weijian's back, his body rising and falling with him. He was depressed for a long time before he said, "I didn't see it clearly just now. It seems that Jinglingbo shot out two columns of smoke with one shot?"

"The princess has good eyesight."

Li Mengqing was puzzled and asked, "What's the reason for this?"

Li Weijian said casually: "This is a secret that I will never pass on. It is called American Iai."

"American Iai?" Li Mengqing was more and more surprised, and said, "I have heard of this Iai. A few years ago, my father summoned two Japanese warriors. Their swords were unstoppable and quite sharp... Is Jingling Bo's move inspired by Japanese swordsmanship?"

"Eh? Princess, you are very insightful. You do have this intention."

"And what about American style——"

"American style...naturally because of the picturesque posture."

Li Mengqing blinked and was speechless for a long time - how could he brag like that?
After a while, Li Mengqing said again: "Thank goodness Jingling Bo has this magical skill, otherwise... it would be unimaginable."

Li Weijian said leisurely: "It is also the princess's good fortune."

He had practiced this American Iai for a long time and had only recently achieved some success. However, although his moves were extremely fast, his accuracy was not good. He had fired two shots in less than half a second, and because the gunshots were too rapid, it sounded like one shot.

Two bullets were fired, the first one hit the thief holding Li Mengqing between his eyebrows, the second one was slightly off target and only hit the incense master's arm. The incense master was in pain and was about to kill Li Mengqing, but Li Weijian waited half a second and fired three more shots, and another archer shot him dead with one arrow, thus saving Li Mengqing in a very dangerous situation.

Li Weijian sighed casually, but unexpectedly Li Mengqing was very smart and said in surprise: "If Jingling Bo put it this way... Could it be that you were not completely sure just now?"

Li Weijian added: "I still have about 70% confidence... I am in a hurry, so please don't blame me, Princess."

Li Mengqing shook his head and said, "Let alone 70% or 80% chance, even if it's 30% or 40%, I should still fight with all my strength. Otherwise, if I let those two thieves go, I'm afraid I will still die in the end... Maybe I'll end up living a life worse than death."

Li Weijian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this little princess was very reasonable.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. The guards vacated a horse. Without waiting for Li Weijian to make a move, Li Mengqing jumped to the ground, grabbed the saddle and climbed onto the horse.

Li Weijian took a look and saw that the embroidered shoes had fallen off long ago, and even the socks were torn, revealing a few round and smooth toes.

As if she had caught Li Weijian's eye, her toes immediately retracted into her tattered socks. Li Weijian raised his eyes and saw Li Mengqing's face flushed with shame.

Li Weijian turned around and called a guard, then found a piece of deerskin from the side bag on the horse's back - it was originally an arm guard used to stop the Saker Falcon.

Turning around to find the thin rope, Li Weijian came closer again, frowning, not knowing how to start. Li Mengqing blinked, pulled his right foot out of the stirrup quickly, and whispered, "Thank you for troubling Lord Jingling."

As soon as I said it I knew it was wrong, but since I had said it, it was difficult to take it back.

Li Weijian secretly complained for a while, but finally stepped forward to wrap his right foot and tied it with a thin rope. Then he said to Li Mengqing with a calm face: "Princess, let's go to Pinggu first, and then wait for the prince's letter."

"it is good."

Without further ado, Li Weijian mounted his horse. A Saker Falcon cried out and circled in front of him. A group of ten people escorted the captured person alive and went along the winding mountain path.

The ten-mile mountain road had to be walked slowly, and the group was extremely vigilant. Fortunately, there was no danger. After leaving the mountain, there was a wide official road in front of them. The ten riders galloped on horseback and arrived in Pinggu County at dusk.

Li Weijian did not look for the temple where he had stayed before, but simply booked an inn. He then sent someone to deliver a message to the county government office. Soon the county magistrate came in person, and forty or fifty yamen runners and hangers-on came and surrounded the inn.

Without mentioning Li Weijian's negotiation with the county magistrate, Li Mengqing went into the room and sat on the bed, stunned for a long time. After a long while, his eyes gradually came into focus, and then he saw the deerskin wrapped around his right foot.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and a woman tremblingly said, "Sir, I am here to give you some shoes."

"Come in." With a creak, the door opened, and two women, one older and one younger, came in. They bowed to Li Mengqing in panic, then came forward holding a pair of plain shoes.

The elder one stammered, "I don't know if they are suitable for you at this moment. This pair is newly made by my daughter. Why don't you try it?"

Li Mengqing agreed, and the woman handed him the shoes. He untied the string around his ankles and tried them on with his bare feet. The shoes were a little big, but they were wearable.

Li Mengqing smiled and said, "That's just right. Thank you very much."

The woman smiled and waved her hands repeatedly: "I don't deserve your thanks."

Li Mengqing glanced at the young man, who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, but rather stout. She thought for a moment, took off a hairpin from her head, and handed it to him with a smile, saying, "I don't have anything with me, so I'll give you this hairpin as a reward."

"No, no, no," the woman said in a panic, "My Lord gave me ten taels of silver earlier, so I dare not accept your hairpin again. Xiaolian, go get some water and help you wash up."

The stout girl agreed, went out of the room, and came back with a bucket of water in a moment.

Seeing that she refused to accept the offer, Li Mengqing stopped insisting. He just let Xiaolian serve him woodenly, his mind full of random thoughts... This time, he almost died.

And as for that Jingling Bo, isn't he really afraid of accidentally hurting himself and then being blamed by his father?
Another doctor came in and carefully examined the wound on Li Mengqing's neck. He then applied medicine and wrapped it with silk before leaving.

The little princess had been frightened for half a day, and now she was filled with fear again. After Xiaolian helped her to wash and dress, Li Mengqing curled up on the bed like a cat, covered with a brand new quilt. Although her mind was still full of random thoughts, she could not bear the tiredness and fell asleep unknowingly.

At the beginning of the night shift, Li Weijian came to the upper room to inspect, and the two guards guarding the door said, "Master, the nobleman is asleep."

"Asleep?" Li Weijian said with a smile, "She is quite carefree."

The inn was near the city gate, and suddenly they heard a commotion outside. They turned around and saw Ding Rusong running over and saying, "Master, the city gate has been opened, and I saw quite a few soldiers from the capital pouring in."

Li Weijian nodded and walked out to greet them. When they arrived at the inn, Ding Rufeng came to report: "Master, Captain Zhou of the Beijing Camp wants to see you!"

"please."

Ding Rufeng turned around and led a man in. The man was dressed in military uniform. He held his sword and bowed as he entered, saying, "Captain Sun Shaojie of the Beijing Camp greets Master Li!"

"Captain, please be polite. Do you have any instructions from the prince?"

Sun Shaojie replied, "I have received the order from the prince to lead a part of the Beijing troops to come for protection."

"Nothing else?"

Sun Shaojie said: "The prince will arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest."

King Zhongyong really loves his daughter. If he had not been assigned the task of assistant, I'm afraid he would have abandoned the funeral procession and rushed day and night to rescue his precious daughter.

Li Weijian thought to himself that Li Mengqing was the lifeblood of the King of Loyalty and Bravery, and he was afraid that the King of Loyalty and Bravery would be unreasonable when they met tomorrow. Li Weijian was not happy to be scolded for no reason, and he was afraid that it would be awkward for the two of them to meet again in the future.

Li Weijian said, "I will leave all the escort matters to Sun Duwei. I have important matters to attend to and will return to the capital tomorrow morning."

Sun Shaojie frowned, not understanding what Li Weijian was thinking. He agreed at first, then asked, "I heard that Master Li captured a demon from the Bagua Sect?"

Li Weijian sighed and said with a dull look, "He's been locked up in the woodshed at the back. I'll hand him over to Captain Sun for disposal as well."

Sun Shaojie bowed in response.

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn. The little princess had a deep sleep, and when she woke up, she felt a slight itch on her neck. She raised her hand to scratch it, and immediately gasped in pain. She heard a noise from inside, the door opened, and two female officials came in.

The two bowed and came forward to serve. Li Mengqing blinked in confusion and asked in confusion: "Who are you——"

A female official said, "My lady, we were sent by the prince to serve you."

Another female official unpacked the package, which contained brand new clothes and rouge and powder for her daughter's family. Li Mengqing allowed the two female officials to serve her, and asked, "Did you come overnight?"

The female official replied, "Yes. When the prince heard that the princess had been attacked, he was extremely anxious and immediately sent a group of soldiers from the capital to protect her. We came with them."

Another female official said, "The prince said he would arrive at noon today... Oh, damn the thieves, they almost killed the princess."

Li Mengqing nodded, and suddenly saw another female official picking up the deerskin on the ground and about to throw it away, so she quickly spoke up to stop them and said, "Hey, keep the deerskin."

The female official hurriedly said, "I have picked it up. It will not be lost."

After washing and dressing, she changed into clean clothes and put on a pair of shoes that fit her feet. Then the female official brought her food. Li Mengqing ate the glutinous rice porridge in small bites and suddenly asked, "Where is Jingling Bo?"

The female official replied, "The Earl of Jingling said that he had important matters to attend to in the capital, so he left early this morning."

Li Mengqing frowned for a moment, then relaxed his brows and smiled, "He is smart. He knows that my father's temper is probably very bad right now."

On the other side, Li Weijian met up with several people who were returning early in the morning. The thirteen of them rode along the official road, and after passing Jizhou, they suddenly turned south and arrived at Baodi near noon. This place is where the canal flows, and they saw a steamboat on the water with thick smoke, dragging more than a dozen boats, passing Baodi and heading straight to Tongzhou.

Near Baodi Wharf, countless boatmen were squatting on the river bank with sad faces. Li Weijian sent someone to investigate, and Ding Rusong came back and said, "Master, I have found out that since the smoke-emitting steamboat appeared, the boatman's business has become difficult. Now, there are only two days out of three free, and the five hundred yuan a month is all thanks to the F.A."

Li Weijian smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that the boomerang would hit him so quickly. The guy he caught earlier confessed with a little trickery. Except for the leader and a few others, the rest of the men were originally boatmen who made a living on the water.

Since the steamboats came out last year, it has been hard to make a living on the river. The boatmen were already poor, and now they have lost their livelihood and jobs, so they are very upset. I heard that at the beginning of the year, more than a hundred boatmen smashed a steamboat, and the government invited inspectors to arrest dozens of people.

Looking around, there are densely packed trackers in Baodi alone. If their livelihoods are cut off, who knows what might happen.

While he was thinking, he suddenly saw a rich slave leading a group of servants into the shed. Immediately, a servant struck a gong and shouted at the top of his voice: "Recruiting workers! Recruiting workers! Mr. Li from Miyun is recruiting craftsmen and laborers. The minimum salary is 800 yuan, and food and accommodation are provided!"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves, and the shed was surrounded by hundreds of trackers.

One said something, the other said something, making the servant tired of dealing with it. The slave sitting behind the table started to make a scene, stood up and stepped on the table and shouted: "Be quiet! I will only say this once, come or not! The boss is Mr. Li from Miyun, he is the nephew of the wet nurse of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, so he is the wet brother of His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin.

Just sign and seal your names, and you won't lose any money!"

Someone shouted, "Eight hundred coins is a little too little. We used to make a living at the docks, and every month we made a few taels of silver."

The slave sneered, "Do it if you want! Three-legged frogs are hard to find, but there are plenty of living people with two legs!"

The crowd was buzzing with excitement. When the slave sat down with his sword in his hand, a man finally pushed his way through the crowd and said, "I really can't make ends meet at home. Eight hundred is eight hundred. I sign the agreement!"

With the leader in the lead, the trackers followed one after another. Li Weijian saw all this and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there is the project of the capital city renovation, otherwise the extra people would definitely cause chaos. Without looking around, he turned around and rode straight to the capital.

On the other side, the King of Loyalty and Bravery arrived at Pinggu just before noon. When the father and daughter met, the King of Loyalty and Bravery's eyes were filled with tears. He almost cried when he saw the knife scar on his precious daughter's neck.

King Zhongyong was furious when he heard that the Bagua Sect was spreading in Shandong, so he immediately asked for an imperial decree to personally lead his troops to wipe it out. Fortunately, Li Mengqing comforted him with kind words, and King Zhongyong gradually calmed down.

After a long while, the loyal and brave king finally came to his senses: "Huh? Why isn't Li Fusheng here?"

Li Mengqing said unhappily, "My father started shouting for war and killing as soon as he entered the house. Jingling Bo was afraid that my father would lose his temper, so he returned to the capital early in the morning."

King Zhongyong stared with astonishment and said, "Li Fusheng is indeed cunning!"

Li Mengqing pouted and said, "If it weren't for Jingling Bo's rescue, I'm afraid I would never see my father again."

The King of Loyalty and Bravery immediately changed his words: "Well, this time it was all thanks to Li Fusheng. Don't worry, my daughter, I will definitely thank him when I return to the capital. Yes, I just said it in a fuzzy way, tell me more about the situation at that time."

Li Mengqing blinked and started to tell the story again. He told the truth in the first part, but when it came to the part about Li Weijian's rescue, Li Mengqing started to make up stories. He said that Jingling Bo's spearmanship was amazing, and when the thieves were approaching, he fired several shots from a distance of a hundred steps, killing the two thieves immediately.

King Zhongyong did not doubt him, and sighed for a while, then glared and said: "From now on, you are not allowed to come out alone!"

Li Mengqing agreed obediently and never mentioned the coming-of-age ceremony again. Unexpectedly, the King of Loyalty and Bravery remembered it and said after a while, "Go faster on the way back, we can make it in time."

Li Mengqing smiled and thanked him. She first thought of Li Weijian and then Daiyu. She thought to herself that she should thank her good sister when she ran into her.

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

Li Weijian returned to the Bo's residence at noon the next day. The Bo's residence was filled with joy. Daiyu led all the concubines to the ceremonial gate to greet them. Afterwards, Li Weijian told them about Li Mengqing's misfortune.

All the concubines were only concerned about Li Weijian, so Qingwen came to check on him in person. Seeing that Li Weijian was fine, she complained a few words and left. Daiyu and Li Mengqing were very close, and after confirming that Li Weijian was indeed fine, she asked about the details.

Li Weijian explained in a few words that Li Mengqing had only suffered some minor skin injuries. Daiyu was relieved and said, "Thank God, I survived this."

Looking up, she saw Li Weijian frowning again. Daiyu couldn't help wondering, "Fourth brother saved the princess, why is he frowning?"

"Two things. First, most of the Bagua cult's thugs are from the boatmen on both sides of the canal. The boatmen took such a risk because the steamboat took their jobs. I'm afraid there will be repercussions later. Second, the situation was critical at the time. I acted hastily and was not sure. If the princess tells the truth, I'm afraid that the petty prince will find fault with me later."

Daiyu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Don't worry, Fourth Brother. The princess is always sensible. Since you saved her life, she will never say anything bad about you."

Li Weijian nodded, then shook his head and said, "I am a big tree that attracts winds now. I am afraid that someone will use the matter of the boat trackers to make trouble for me. It is not good to stay in the capital for a long time. Fortunately, I got permission a few days ago. I think I will go to Tianjin and Liaodong in the next few days."

Daiyu was reluctant to leave when she heard him say this, but she nodded in agreement. Just as she was about to send someone to prepare the luggage, Qianxue suddenly came in with a pouty mouth and whispered, "Master, Madam, that Qiao'er girl is here again."

Li Weijian didn't react for a moment and asked, "What's the matter?"

Daiyu immediately said angrily, "How can a distant relative come to rely on our family?" She stood up angrily and said, "Fourth brother, wait a moment. I will go and send her away."

Li Weijian grabbed Daiyu and said, "Since you don't want to see her, just let the servants send her away." He turned around and gave Qianxue a wink, and Qianxue immediately obeyed the order and left.

Li Weijian pulled Daiyu aside and advised, "Sister, you are usually nice, but when you are really angry, you will ignore everything. What is your current status, and what is her status? There is a huge difference between you and her, so why should you care about her?"

Daiyu said angrily, "I was just too angry just now. I have never seen such a shameless person before."

Li Weijian said with a smile: "Sister, you have been locked up at home, and the only people you interact with are your relatives and sisters, so naturally you have little experience. When I come back, I will take you around, so that you can relax and gain more experience."

Daiyu responded in a muffled voice, still feeling depressed. At this moment, Qianxue suddenly came in with a frown on her face, and replied, "Master, Madam, that Qiao'er hit her head against the wall!"

"Ah?" Daiyu was suddenly confused.

Li Weijian was amused: "Good fellow, he wants to spit a mouthful of dirty blood into our house before dying... Is the person dead?"

Qianxue said: "Butler Wu said he was still breathing."

Li Weijian pondered and asked, "Has she already arranged a marriage?"

Daiyu nodded and said, "I heard that she is engaged to the son of a man from outside the city."

Li Weijian said, "That's easy. We'll treat and bandage her first, and then send someone out of the city to notify the Fang family to come and pick her up." He paused, and then said, "This woman is vicious and scheming. Find a place to put her, and don't bring her to the Earl's house."
