Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 45
When the news that Xiao Yang was ordered to recuperate behind closed doors because of "illness" reached Li Lijun's ears, she was sharing dinner with her elder brother Li Jian.

The two brothers and sisters now meet in the mourning hall every day, saying something from time to time, and their relationship has improved greatly.At least now the two can sit at the same table and dine together in a friendly manner, and the waiters around them won't be nagging.

Lady Cang was not with the little master today, only two maids were left to serve the tea, and Erhong was in charge of even the work of distributing the chopsticks.Li Jianrang's maid did not re-wipe the little master's chopsticks or change a pair after Er Hong clothed the chopsticks, which shows that the relationship between the two parties has improved greatly compared to before, and there is already a foundation of mutual trust.

Because of this, when Li Jian's maid Cang Cui came to report the news about Xiao Yang, Li Lijun didn't need to evade, and just listened to her report with her elder brother.

Xiao Yang also appeared in the mourning hall in the morning, putting on the appearance of a weak and virtuous concubine who was sad for the benevolent wife, as if she wanted to prove that she had never done anything to murder the wife, and all the rumors were Made up by people with malicious intentions.

In the past, she would always be able to coax a few people who didn't know the inside story by putting on this posture.But now her reputation is notorious, the victim Li Lijun is still covered in injuries, and she appears in the mourning hall every day to show everyone the crimes of her mother and daughter. How can she be fooled by a few words?Most of the noble ladies of the clan are on Li Lijun's side, and those who used to be on Xiao Yang's side have long since disappeared.No one spoke for Xiao Yang, so she could only leave in despair.

She looked fine at the time, but suddenly fell ill in the afternoon?Everyone knows there must be something wrong here!
Before Cang Cui came to report the letter, she had already asked someone to inquire. It is said that the heir king Li Dai personally ordered people to lock Xiao Yang in his yard.Most of Xiao Yang's subordinates were kicked out, leaving only his confidants and servants.Li Dai also ordered someone to take Silang Li Wenliang away, saying that he was afraid that Xiao Yang would pass his "sickness" to his son, so he turned around and sent the child to King Sui.

Where did the King of Sui bother to take care of his children?Li Jianrang also moved in to live with him after he turned seven years old that day.Li Wenliang is only four years old this year, and he has always been spoiled, crying and making noise when things go wrong.King Sui planned to send his little grandson to Concubine Dou.The heir king Li Dai was not at ease, for fear that his stepmother would harm his son, leaving Xiao Yang behind, he rushed to persuade his father.

Xiao Yang was thrown in the yard without even seeing a doctor, and was declared to be suffering from panic disorder, so she naturally understood that she had overturned her car.Originally, she felt that she had the support of the heir king, so she had nothing to be afraid of.But once even the heir king leaves her alone, how can she calm down?
In the past, she had always acted like a daughter of everyone, and people flattered her that she was more worthy of being an heir concubine than the Chen family.But today she was crying so pitifully, she kept calling for grievances, and she couldn't care about any demeanor.However, the hei wang who had always been very fond of her was not present, so he did not see her pitiful appearance.

Cang Cui is the daughter of Mrs. Cang, who is also loyal to the Dayang family, and is very angry with Xiao Yang's actions.Seeing her fate now, don't mention how happy she is.

Li Jianrang's mood was very complicated.He did have resentment towards his aunt, Xiao Yang, but he had loved her for more than ten years, and this kind of feeling could not be easily forgotten overnight.Seeing her end up like this now, I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart.

He couldn't help but asked Cang Cui: "What did Aye say? Did he just ground Auntie to call her sick? Did he say how many years Auntie would need to be sick?"

Cang Cui looked at him with loving eyes: "Da Lang is too kind! Why does it take many years to be sick? Since Lady Yang suddenly got a 'serious illness', she was naturally sick, so she couldn't afford it. She She dared to lay a poisonous hand on Da Lang, she really saved her life, what if she tries to harm you again? The prince and the prince love you, and will never allow that poisonous woman to have a chance to do it again!"

Li Jianrang's face changed: "You mean... my aunt will die?" He suddenly became a little uneasy.

Li Lijun raised his eyes and looked at him: "Brother is just too soft-hearted. Mrs. Yang wants to kill you, and you still feel sorry for her."

"That's not what I meant..." Li Jianrang looked at the little girl whose head wound was still visible, and was ashamed to say that he still had feelings for his aunt, so he could only say, "I just think... that my aunt hurt me, after all, there is no evidence , It’s just that gossip is flying all over the sky. If my aunt is killed because of rumors, I’m afraid she won’t accept it... my grandmother and uncles will also refuse to accept it.”

Li Lijun blinked: "Brother, I think that there is no real evidence to prove that she did murder my mother and you, so Aweng and Aye shouldn't punish her, right?"

Li Jianrang felt even more ashamed: "I know that the fourth sister has suffered a lot, and it's all the fault of my aunt and third sister. I'm not sorry for them..."

Li Lijun said indifferently: "You just think that only the third sister leaked something about Mrs. Yang instigating someone to kill my mother and you, and she tried her best to deny it afterwards, so it can't be true. More definite evidence is needed. Only then can you believe that Mrs. Yang, whom you have always respected as your own mother, really has murderous intentions towards you. Otherwise, you cannot accept that Mrs. Yang lost her life because of no evidence."

Li Jian blushed, but he didn't refute, and he acquiesced to what the younger sister said.

Cang Cui was anxious at the side: "Da Lang! My mother and the others have checked it! This is absolutely true! Could it be that my mother and the others can still wrong that poisonous woman?! Don't always use the poisonous woman's upbringing. En talking about things. From childhood to adulthood, we slaves are taking care of your diet, medicine, sewing and daily life. She just comes to see you twice a day, and occasionally feeds you medicine.

"Every time you wake up from a coma, you can always see her guarding your bedside, so you are very grateful to her. But it is my mother and several nuns and sisters who are really guarding your bedside. It is only because the poisonous woman I have an order, once you have any signs of awakening, you must tell her, so she can come to your bedside every time you open your eyes! My mother has long said that the poisonous woman is very scheming, but I don’t know that she still has the guts to murder you! My mother told you so much yesterday, why do you still miss that poisonous woman?!”

Li Jianrang looked at Cang Cui, hesitant to speak.Lady Cang had always been at odds with Xiao Yang, but now that she was actively publicizing Xiao Yang's crimes, he suspected that the wet nurse did it on purpose.But the nurse had always cared for him, so he couldn't tell the truth to hurt her, so he could only keep silent.

Seeing this, Li Lijun smiled slightly: "Brother, you may not trust me, but Ah Weng and Aye, you can always trust me, right? If they hadn't found the definite evidence, how could they have easily dealt with Lady Yang? I don't care about Mrs. Yang, and I won't see Shiro's reputation being implicated. Since they decided to punish Mrs. Yang severely, they have their reasons. They didn't publicize it, probably for the sake of the face of the Yang family. After all, the Yang family is now in Chang'an The scenery in the city is infinite, and Ah Weng doesn't want to offend them for nothing."

Li Jian was stunned: "That makes sense." He had only average confidence in his father, but he always believed in and respected his grandfather.Since his grandfather had acquiesced in his father's decision, wouldn't it be a disappointment to his grandfather's love if he questioned it again?Grandpa also worried about his safety so he wanted to deal with Auntie, right?

Li Jianrang let go of the entanglement for the time being, Li Lijun lowered his head, thinking in his heart, it is almost time to let the world know more about Xiao Yang's crimes, otherwise a fool like Li Jianrang would really think she was wronged.

After all, King Sui would be angry only because his own interests were damaged.
