Rebirth of the Unruly Little Demon of the Boliang Guard

Lin Li received the gift, and the carriage at the door was ready. She did not forget to instruct Zhu'er, "Go back and tell Yuzhu that if there is no way to hide it, just tell the truth. I am going to visit the prince's mansion."

"Yes, ma'am."

The carriage set off immediately. Lin Li was terrified all the way, fearing that Xie Yu would discover her and capture her.

But Xie Yu had clearly promised to send me back home, so why was he here again?

After Zhu'er delivered the food, she returned to the courtyard. Mother Li had already eaten her fill and waved for Zhu'er to come over. "Have you found your young lady? It's been so long."

"Mom, we can't do anything. The young lady just returned home, and we don't know where she went to play. But, mom, don't worry, maybe the young lady will be back soon."

"Send your forces to search for him quickly. The emperor can't wait any longer. If he blames you, you will suffer."

"Yes."

Passing through the downtown area, the hawkers' cries could be heard one after another on the street. Lin Li opened the car curtain and looked at the bustling market outside.

There were people selling buns, vegetables, candied haws, and gold and silver jewelry, as well as children playing around. She hadn't seen such a scene for a long time.

In the palace, the food, clothing and other necessities are the best, incomparable to those outside, but people are not free, just like a canary trapped in a cage.

Lin Li had also thought that she was really not suitable for life in the palace. If Xie Yu was really just an ordinary guard without such a complicated background, perhaps the two of them would have really been married.

It’s a pity that there are not so many ifs. He is the emperor of the time, and Lin Li is just an ordinary citizen. The gap between them is a chasm that cannot be crossed.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, the carriage stopped and happened to meet Wang Yangzhi who had just returned from the army.

At first, Lin Li was worried that if she went to the palace alone, the servants would not recognize her and would drive her away. Fortunately, she met Wang Yangzhi.

"Lin Li, why did you come here alone today?" Wang Yangzhi was wearing casual clothes, and Xiao Si, who was following behind him, was holding a sword. Suddenly, he realized that this person should be in the palace. "You left the palace?"

"Don't welcome me?" She doesn't have many friends, just a few of them. The only ones she's close to are Yuzhu and a few others. Apart from them, there's Wang Yangzhi.

"How could that be? It really brings honor to our home."

"Brother Wang, when did you become like this?" He handed the gift to Xiao Si and went into the mansion with Wang Yangzhi.

"I'm not always like this, hahahahaha."

Wang Yangzhi's wife was coaxing the child to take a nap and could not come to entertain Lin Li all at once.

The two of them sat in the main hall drinking tea. Wang Yangzhi wanted to get to the bottom of it, "You haven't told me yet, why did you suddenly leave the palace?"

"The emperor let me leave the palace, so I came back."

Although the two families were old friends, Lin Li had hardly ever been to the palace. Most of the time, it was Wang Yangzhi who went to see her.

"You can just lie to others, I don't believe it. Did you have a fight?"

When talking about that person, Lin Li's mood became unhappy. Compared with last night, she seemed like a different person. The two of them must have had a conflict.

"I guess so. We couldn't come to an agreement, so we broke up."

"That's not right. You two were so close and inseparable at the banquet yesterday. How come you suddenly had a fight?"

Lin Li and Xie Yu were the envy of others at the banquet. How could they have any unpleasantness?

"Everything depends on human effort. If you want to quarrel, just quarrel. There's no need to worry about why."

It was really hot today. The sun was very strong outside and there was no drinkable water in the carriage. Lin Li was almost dying of thirst.

"You said it so calmly, are you willing to let it go?"

"Oh, there is gain only when there is loss. You clearly know what I am thinking, but you still want to bring up my sad story. I am here to see my nephew today, not to complain to you."

The little nephew had already fallen asleep, and Lin Li could only wait for the child to wake up. Wang Yangzhi's wife was named Xiaorou, and she was as gentle as her name.

Lin Li was also willing to talk to her. Women have a lot of topics to talk about, from rouge and powder to poetry and etiquette. They can talk about anything, so she didn't bother to pay attention to Wang Yangzhi.
