Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2 Kuro
The footsteps turned into the quiet corner of the garden under the rockery.

At the same time, there was an impatient teenager complaining: "Okay, Hammer, you have said it countless times, aren't you tired?! I am not a three-year-old child, how could I not know that the Sui Palace is holding a funeral today? Isn’t it when I’m playing around?! I’m just impatient to talk to those people, so I want to find a quiet place to hide. When my grandma (grandmother) looks for me, just call me, why is there so much nonsense ?!"

Immediately came another young voice: "Your Excellency, it is better not to wander around in the Sui Palace. Today, Madam brought you here not only to mourn the successor Wangfei, but also to discuss important matters with Sui Wangfei! If you're impatient to talk to people, just sit and drink tea, how can you wander around? This is not someone's house hosting a banquet, you can go as you please. After all, it is a family that is having a funeral. What if you bump into something? Is it good? Even if there is no collision, it is not good to let the master know that the gentleman is rude. For whom the madam came to the Sui palace, the gentleman knows in his heart, why bother to hurt the reputation of the third lady?!"

The boy who spoke before was silent for a while, before continuing: "Don't worry, I won't hurt my little aunt's reputation. I don't wander around, I just sit in the pavilion on the rockery, enjoy the breeze, and think about it." Think about something. You waved at the bottom of the mountain if you have something to do, so I came down, how about it? You heard what the maid who showed the way just now said, no one will disturb me."

It's just that the young man named "A Chui" also said: "The maidservant was sneaky, and somehow said in front of the gentleman that the rockery pavilion is quiet and no one is there. I don't know if she deliberately lured the gentleman here. In other people's homes, Mr. Lang should be more cautious."

The little man became impatient again: "I can see from a distance that there is no one in the pavilion on the top of the rockery here. What are they deliberately leading me to do? Princess Sui is the sister of my mother's family, and she is going to marry our Lin family. , can you still harm me? Just stop talking!"

While talking angrily, Mr. Xiao Lang walked around the flowers and walked up the steps up the mountain along the path. He suddenly saw a little girl in white sitting on the grass next to the steps. Her head was covered with blood and her face was pale. He didn't react, and the whole person froze there.

His young servant, Ah Chui, chased after him and almost bumped into his back, only then did he realize something was wrong: "Why did you stop here?" Then he also saw Li Lijun who was not far ahead, and couldn't help being shocked , "Oh my God! What's going on? Whose little lady are you? How did you get hurt like this?!"

Mr. Xiaolang walked quickly to Li Lijun and squatted down, with a look of anxiety and worry on his face: "Little sister, are you okay? Why are you sitting here? What's the matter with your injury? Which room are you in the Sui Palace?" Your little lady? I will call your parents to save you right away."

As he spoke, he took out a small white porcelain bottle from his bosom: "This is the wound medicine handed down by our Lin family. It has the best hemostatic effect! You have bled so much, you have to take the medicine quickly." But he He was a little hesitant, after all, Li Lijun was obviously over seven years old, and he, a foreigner, touching the body of a young woman without authorization, even if it was just for the purpose of applying medicine, seemed not very good.

But to act urgently...it is more important to save lives!
Thinking of this, Mr. Xiao Lang no longer hesitated, immediately opened the cork, and poured the medicine powder inside into the palm of his hand.He usually wields knives and guns, runs and jumps, and minor injuries and pains are commonplace, so he takes wound medicine with him everywhere, and he is proficient in how to use medicine.Soon, he quickly and lightly applied the medicine to the obvious wound on Li Lijun's forehead.

He immediately noticed the abnormality: "Huh? Little sister, your injury has healed? I saw you bleeding so much, and thought you were seriously injured."

Li Lijun has been watching his movements, and saw that he was about thirteen or fourteen years old, he was handsome and energetic, with a headband on his head, and two soft feet hanging behind his head.He was tall and thin, dressed in white, with a black brocade belt around his waist, long boots with arrow sleeves, and a half-worn riding whip pinned to his back waist.Although he has slightly round eyes and baby fat on his face, he still looks like a white, tender and energetic young man.He looked at her with concern in his eyes, and he would carefully apply the medicine for her, not pretending, but really kind-hearted.

Although Li Yanjun said that he was stubborn and had hurt others, but now Li Lijun doesn't believe her at all.

At first glance, this boy knew that he was a child who was loved by the elders at home.Even if Lin Guogong's mansion is weaker, it can still win over.Besides, since his grandmother is a relative of Concubine Dou, the latter must be willing to have a hand in this matter.

Thinking of this, Li Lijun spoke for the first time in front of these two strangers: "I was pushed down from the rockery, and my forehead was scratched by a protruding rock, which is why I bleed so much. The grass is quite soft and thick, and the mountain is not very high. I just hurt my whole body from being hit. It looks scary, but the injury is not serious. Now I have recovered, and I have applied your medicine again, and there will be no serious problems of."

Mr. Xiao Lang saw that the cut on her forehead had healed, and she was not seriously injured, so he believed the statement: "Who is so vicious to push such a delicate and frail little lady down the mountain? You are wearing this filial piety, And now it's the funeral of the heiwang concubine of the Sui Wangfu, you must be the young lady of the heiwang's family. Did that person dare to hurt you, did he eat a bear's heart and a leopard's guts?"

Li Lijun twitched the corners of her mouth: "It was my third sister who pushed me down. Her mother is my Aye's favorite concubine, and she felt that my mother had just died, and no one was protecting me, so she could do whatever she wanted to me. She She made too many demands on me, but when I refused, she pushed me down the mountain to vent her anger. She even brought a maid to check on my injuries afterwards. Said, I'm going to die soon, no one will know what she did."

Speaking of this, Li Lijun raised his eyes to look at Xiaolangjun: "You are Lin Jiulang, right? My third sister told her maid at the time that Lin Jiulang has always been stubborn, and he just hurt someone not long ago, so he can just be a scapegoat for her." , no one will believe you are innocent. She had someone bring you here, just wait until she comes with witnesses and bumps into you staying with my 'dead body', you will become a murderer. No one will doubt her."

Lin Jiulang never expected to hear such amazing words, he couldn't help opening his eyes wide: "What did you say?!"

The servant A Chui behind him was also shocked and angry: "Little lady, who is your third sister? When did our lord offend her, and she framed our lord so viciously?!"

"I don't know if you have offended her." Li Lijun continued to stare at Lin Jiulang's face, "I only heard her tell the maid that your grandmother brought you to our house to express condolences because she wanted to marry your aunt into our Sui Palace. Continuing, and the third sister's mother is thinking about becoming the successor princess, so of course no one can let anyone get in the way of her."

"However—" Li Lijun looked at Lin Jiulang whose face changed drastically, and paused, "My mother has only been dead for three days, no matter how ridiculous my father is, it is impossible to discuss marriage at this time. It is impossible for the princess to do it for him. My lord. My third uncle has lost his wife for ten years and has not remarried. Is the princess planning to let him remarry? My third sister made a mistake and set up this situation. I just don’t know if she was ordered by someone or committed a crime herself. Stupid, just heard some rumors and was anxious to harm others, forcing your family to have no face to bring up the matter of getting married again."
