Rebirth of the Unruly Little Demon of the Boliang Guard

Gradually, the emperor forgot about this matter. Perhaps it was God's will that she became sick, so that she could avoid entering the palace and could paint freely outside without being bound by palace rules.

Xie Yu was still standing by the side without changing his mind. Looking from Lin Li's direction, Qingqing was staring at Xie Yu in a trance. At this moment, the girl's eyes only had room for Xie Yu.

Yuzhu held up an umbrella and said, "Miss, could it be that Qingqing, the maid of the young mistress, is in love with that guard?"

"You've figured it out," Lin Li curled her lips, her eyebrows curved, "Qingqing is eyeing him covetously, I wonder if the young mistress has noticed this."

It seems that there are many people who like Xie Yu, including Miss Meng, Qingqing, and countless others. His face is very popular among women.

What a pity, Xie Yu likes Meng Ranyue the most.

Xie Yu also noticed Lin Li standing opposite him, with a smile on her face. Her appearance made the surrounding scenery seem to lose its color and become dull.

Twenty years ago, Meng Beisong was still a small figure who had just passed the imperial examination and was appointed as a county magistrate. He and his wife went to the temple to fulfill a vow. On the way down the mountain, they met a pale woman and a little boy who was over one year old. Although the child was not very old, it could be seen that he had a noble bearing and was definitely not the son of an ordinary citizen.

They brought the two of them back to the mansion, but the woman was seriously ill and died soon after. She only entrusted Meng Beisong to raise the child and gave him a bag. The things inside were enough to prove the child's identity.

The current political situation in the Great Zhou Kingdom is turbulent, the country has changed hands, the king is tyrannical, and the people dare not speak out. Perhaps more than ten years later, this child will have a great influence on the current emperor. If this child can shoulder the heavy responsibility, then he will be the savior.

"Beisong, whether this child is a blessing or a curse depends on you. He is about the same age as our Nan'er, and I can't bear to let him fend for himself." The lady has realized the seriousness of the matter. If it is exposed, then their Meng family will be implicated.

"Let me think about it again," Meng Beisong stared at the token in the bundle in a daze, clenching his fists, "If the current emperor repents and makes some achievements, then this child will only be an ordinary guard in our palace. Otherwise, this child will be supported by everyone."

"Master, have you really made up your mind?"

"Yes."

No one knew Xie Yu's true identity except Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng. Mr. Meng raised Xie Yu in his mansion and taught him to read and write and practice martial arts.

When Mr. Meng was the county magistrate, he worked diligently and loved the people. He was promoted step by step and became the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. He also offended many robbers and bandits. Those people were eyeing the Meng Mansion and even targeted Meng Ranyue, bullying an unarmed woman.

In this way, Xie Yu's duty is to protect Meng Ranyue's safety, and he is tied to her.

At night, Lin Li came to see the housekeeper again. At this time, the housekeeper and the accountant were reconciling the accounts.

"Miss, you are here so late. I don't know why. I should have been the one to follow your instructions, but I asked you to run a trip instead."

Everyone knows that Miss Lin in this mansion is never one to suffer any loss. She is so arrogant that Butler Wang is already sweating profusely. He hasn't seen the young lady recently. How did she offend this big Buddha? It's better to send her away quickly.

"It's nothing serious. I just dropped a piece of jewelry a few days ago and a little girl picked it up. That hairpin was left to me by my mother."

"Glad you found it." The butler placed the tea on the table and asked Lin Li to sit down.

"Well, I want to thank that little girl and give her a set of clothes, but I don't know her size, so I have to trouble the housekeeper."

"No trouble, no trouble," the butler wiped the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he was not here to cause trouble. "This is the duty of a maid. Miss, you don't need to take it to heart."

"That won't do. I've already promised that little girl. One can't go back on one's word."

"Well, which courtyard is that girl from?"

Lin Li gave Yuzhu a look and said, "It's from my sister-in-law's yard. I can't remember the name, but my maid remembers it. Just ask her to go and have a look."

The housekeeper was a little surprised. Aren't these two people incompatible? Would this young lady come up with some shady tricks again? Forget it, this is their own business. He should just do his job and stay out of troubled waters.

After noting down Xie Yu's clothing size, Yuzhu took the lantern and walked back with Lin Li. The cloth they had bought earlier had been used up, and it was not realistic to go out of the house to buy more cloth now.

She could only think of a solution tomorrow, as it was probably too late. Lying on the bed, Lin Li was awakened by the pain when she felt sleepy. She had not had any contact with Xie Yu today, so her vitality was probably about to run out.

There was no other choice but to go find Xie Yu again. It was so late, I prayed that he hadn't gone to bed yet.

Enduring the pain, she sneaked into Xie Yu's yard. His door was not closed, so Lin Li walked into his room without thinking.

The room was not big and was very tidy, with a faint scent of sandalwood. It didn't look like a man's room at all. Lin Li had been to her eldest and second brothers' rooms.

My eldest brother's room was always messy, with weapons and armor scattered around. The servants had to tidy them up for him, and there was even a pungent masculine smell.

The second brother Lin Ji is different. Herbs can be seen everywhere in his house, and he does not allow others to touch them. The second brother also has a herbal scent on him.

He dragged his aching legs and sat on the stool, with his hands on the table. He couldn't support his head and fell on his arms. It was so late and Xie Yu hadn't come back yet. What was Miss Meng up to?

Time passed very slowly, Lin Li gritted her teeth and persevered. Under such circumstances, she needed to stay with her true love forever, but Miss Meng would not let her go easily. The most important thing was that Xie Yu still had a lot of opinions about her. He was badly hurt by her and would never believe in her again.

In the previous life, when Xie Yu ascended the throne, the letters sent by the Lin family did not say that the new emperor made things difficult for the Lin family. Instead, he reused the eldest and second brothers. Xie Yu must have done this for Miss Meng's sake. Fortunately, he did not hold a grudge and did not suppress the Lin family because she had harmed him with aphrodisiacs.

Xie Yu came back with a pot of wine in his hand and saw Lin Li lying on the table. He glanced outside and confirmed that no one was there before closing the door. "Why is Miss Lin here?"

Lin Li raised her head, her face pale and her lips purple, "You are finally back, where have you been?"

"Miss Lin, what happened?" Xie Yu put the wine jar on the table, walked to Lin Li, and asked anxiously, "Should we go get the imperial physician?"
