Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 169 Rendezvous
Li Lijun slept for five full hours, and when he woke up, the sun was already westward.

She sat up on the bed, feeling that the spiritual power in her body had returned to normal level, when she heard someone gently knock on the door.She called people in, but it was Nanny Cui and Erhong.

Li Lijun was a little surprised: "Er Hong has arrived?"

Erhong smiled and said: "I was urging people to set off the car just after dawn. I set off before Chenshi (seven o'clock in the morning) and hurried all the way. I just arrived at Liujiazhuang before a cup of tea, just in time for the little lady to sleep Wake up, isn't it a coincidence?"

Li Lijun asked her: "You set off so early and rushed all the way, so Ding Wulang has no doubts?"

Of course, the four ladies of the Sui Palace had to bring their escorts with them when they went out.Ding Wulang will definitely accompany him, and he has an official position, so he must be responsible for taking care of everything during the young master's trip. Without the nuns, he can't let Erhong, a maid, decide.Without Li Lijun in charge, how did Erhong hold him steady?
Erhong said that the method is also very simple.The little master was away, but she couldn't let other people know that she was traveling alone, so Erhong picked a thin one from among her little maids, and put on Li Lijun's plain white dress, with a hooded cloak from head to toe, When I left the main house, I boarded the car directly, the compartment was sealed tightly, and when I asked, I said that I was afraid that the cold weather would blow the little lady, so I went all the way to Liujiazhuang without telling Ding Wulang.Whenever there were any orders on the road, the "fourth lady" ordered Erhong to give them.

What suspicion could Ding Goro have?Although he felt that the team started too early and the journey was too fast, he was afraid that Si Niangzi would not be able to hold on physically.But "Fourth Lady" didn't think there was any problem from beginning to end. Could he be weaker than a little girl as a big man?
As for the "fourth lady" in the car, even though she is only a thin girl, she is after all a maid who has been used to work since she was a child, and her physical strength is much stronger than that of ordinary noble girls.It's just that the carriage she's riding in goes faster, so it's not a problem for her...

Li Lijun was dumbfounded, and recalled the maids of the Sui Palace who followed him to Mount Saga: "Is it Qiuxiang? I remember she was 12 years old, right?" Not very outstanding, with a taciturn personality, but he often follows Erhong and does some trivial things for Erhong. It can be said that he is Erhong's little follower, and there is no problem with his loyalty.

Erhong smiled and nodded: "It's Qiuxiang. Although she is twelve years old, she is still very thin, only half a head taller than the little lady. She put on clothes to cover her up a bit, so as long as she doesn't look closely, she can be fooled." You don't need to let Ding Wulang, a foreigner, see you when you get on and off the car, and you can't tell the height even if you are sitting in the car, and with the cloak and hood, it's about the same.Ding Wulang is a man of etiquette, he hastily glanced over and knew that the "little master" was there, so would he still stare carefully at the female relatives?
Just now Erhong accompanied the "Fourth Ladies" into the inner courtyard of Liu's Mansion, out of the sight of the guards, the two little sisters were greatly relieved.Now that Qiuxiang has changed back into her own clothes, even if she goes out and sees Ding Wulang, it can be said that she came with the car.Ding Wulang wouldn't ask one by one who are the rough envoys and maids that Erhong took out today, right?
Li Lijun saw that Erhong had arranged it properly, so he didn't ask any more questions, and said with a smile: "You can give Qiuxiang a big red envelope later, thank you for covering me up today. It's just that I'm not here, how do you explain it? She knows why she wants to Pretend to be my stand-in?"

Erhong had already prepared for this point: "An accident happened in Gaojiazhuang, and Mr. Shen Erlang sent someone to pick up the little lady overnight. Because the matter is a bit complicated, it is not easy to disturb the two palaces, so we have to hide it from Ding Wulang and Zou first." A servant of the palace." As for how complicated things are?When we arrived at Liujiazhuang, listening to the rumors about the battle between the demon and the monster yesterday evening, who would ask more questions?Isn't this complicated enough?
Li Lijun got up to wash up, changed into the plain dress she usually wears, and came out to meet everyone.

Ding Wulang thought she just went into the house to rest for a while, and didn't think too much, so he asked her for instructions: "Now the village is in a mess, there are many rumors, I don't know whether it is true or not, I want to go to the neighboring village to ask Mr. , and then report the crimes committed by the magistrate of Jingyang County to the Jingzhao Mansion, I don’t know what Si Niangzi wants?"

Si Niangzi had no objection, and asked him to bring a few more people: "The magistrate of Jingyang County knows the identity of Uncle Shen and I, but he dares to condone the rampage of monsters. He is definitely not a kind person. Be more on guard so as not to fall into his schemes." After a pause, with a trace of childish curiosity, "I heard that the giant snake's body is outside the village, when you left the village, , can you take a look? Is it really as big as the rumors?"

Ding Goro showed helplessness.In fact, he really didn't believe in those supernatural things at all.But what happened here in Liujiazhuang seems to be well-organized, well-documented, and not made up.He had already gone to see the giant snake outside the village just now, and he was quite shocked.Such a big snake, it seems reasonable to say that it has become a spirit.But after all, he has never seen what this snake looks like when it is alive, and he really can't believe that it is really a monster, or he asked a mouse monster to kill it...

Facing the little master's curiosity, Ding Wulang could only say that he would take a look when he left the village, but other than that, he wouldn't say anything more.

Ding Wulang left, Shi Qing came up, and reported to Li Lijun in a low voice: "The Rat King has been placed in the slave's room. He fell asleep after eating a pot of stewed chicken, and he hasn't woken up yet. "

Seeing her shining eyes, Li Lijun couldn't help laughing and said, "Did you talk to it?"

Shi Qing nodded quickly, his small appearance was very excited: "It can really speak human language!" Today's gopher is only the size of a palm, and it is so lovable when he obediently bows his head and eats chicken soup.Shi Qing was so cute that he personally made a nest for it and placed it in the room where he lived, wanting to take a look at it from time to time.Because the gophers occupied her full attention, she didn't even bother to ask her little lady when she learned the magic of immortality, and she was able to travel dozens of miles at night alone to Liujiazhuang to save people? !

Seeing her like this, Li Lijun didn't say much, just handed the gopher to her to take care of: "Don't disturb others, just tell Nanny Cui if you need anything. The gopher was injured before, so it needs to be in the village. I eat livestock to replenish my strength, but now it has taken one of my elixir, and it will soon regain its strength, without having to eat a lot of meat every day. I guess one chicken a day is almost enough. After a while, it can If you practice by yourself, you might even be able to save this chicken. Just take care of it, but don’t tell it too much about me. When it recovers from its wounds, it will go back to its hometown. It used to be The gophers in Taibai Mountain in Fufeng County are far away from us."

Shi Qing was a little disappointed, but still agreed with a smile.After all, it is a monster who can only speak human language, not a docile cat or dog, how can he stay with the little lady casually?She was very satisfied to see the world this time.

Shi Qing retreated, and Nanny Cui came up.

Nanny Cui reported the damage to Li Lijun's house.Not to mention the loss of houses and fields of the farmers in the Zhuangzi, the mansion they are temporarily living in, except for the one in the flower hall, which was the most damaged because it was too close to the scene of the fight between the Demon Dao and the Rat King, the other places are in decent condition.The roof, doors and windows in the backyard area were mainly damaged. After a day and night of rush repairs, the repairs have basically been completed.Lord Li Li and his servants together with the guards should be able to accommodate them if they are squeezed together.Other houses are currently under repair.

As for Zhuangzhong's loss, I'm afraid I have to discuss with Mr. Shen Erlang what to do.
