Chapter 1024 Information Leakage
"Sir! Sir!" Just as Li Xiu had just walked out of Tai Chi Hall, he suddenly heard the sound of a carriage coming from behind, and then he heard someone calling him.
Hearing this familiar voice and title, Li Xiu knew it was Yizi without looking back. He couldn't help but stop, then turned around with a smile. Sure enough, he saw that in a carriage behind him, Yizi was waving his little hand at him, and his little face was red with excitement, as if he had encountered something particularly exciting?
The carriage stopped in front of Li Xiu with a creaking sound, and then I saw Yizi stretching out her little hand excitedly and said, "Sir, come up quickly, I have a lot of fun with Mrs. Mingkong today!"
Just as Yizi finished speaking, two smiling faces appeared in the carriage window. They were Wu Mingkong and Li Lizhi. These two girls were both Li Xiu's students and they were not much different in age, so their relationship was quite good.
"Sir!" Wu Mingkong saw Li Xiu, and his little face also showed a look of gratitude. At this moment, a somewhat old woman appeared behind her, which was Wu Mingkong's mother, Yang. At this time, Yang also bowed respectfully to Li Xiu. At the same time, her eyes were also a little red and swollen, as if tears had been shed before.
"Haha, I didn't expect to meet you, but it's too late. Don't you, Yizi and Lizhi, live in the palace?" Li Xiu was not surprised at all when he saw Wu Mingkong and Yang sitting in Yizi's carriage. Instead, he smiled calmly.
"Xizi insisted on finding new one outside the city. I couldn't persuade her, and she could just send Mingkong and Mrs. Wu away from the palace." Li Lizhi said helplessly at this time. She originally wanted to stay in the palace tonight and help her mother keep her spirits, but because she had to take care of Xizi, she had to give up this idea in the end.
"You have worked hard during this period of time!" Li Xiu looked at Li Zhi's haggard face and couldn't help but sigh. The death of Empress Changsun also caused a great blow to Li Zhi. However, as the eldest sister, she was usually worried about her younger brothers and sisters, but she was under a lot of pressure on her body and looked like she had lost two laps.
"It's okay, Yizi and the others are young, so it's worth worrying about me as a sister." Lizhi smiled when she heard Li Xiu's words, and she smiled. Although this period was very hard, she knew that no matter when, there were families like Li Xiu and his aunt standing behind her.
"Sir, it's not convenient for us to say too much to you, so we left first to avoid causing trouble for you." At this moment, Wu Mingkong suddenly interrupted the conversation between him and Lizhi. When she said this, she looked around with some alertness, as if she was worried about being seen.
"Okay, it's almost dark. You guys should leave the city quickly while dawn. I'll go to the financial management supervisor to clean up and leave." Li Xiu nodded when he heard Wu Mingkong's words.
Lizhi seemed to know that it was not the time to talk to Li Xiu, so she said goodbye to him with Wu Mingkong. Yang in the carriage had never spoken, but his eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Li Xiu. Only Yizi was very reluctant to leave. After all, she was still too young to understand the complexity of the adult world.
Under the urging of Li Qi, the carriage slowly started and left here again. Li Xiu looked at the direction where the carriage left and couldn't help but smile. Looking at the appearance of Yang just now, she must have seen her daughter Wu Shun.
Last time, Wu Mingkong wanted to ask Li Xiu for help, and let his mother Yang meet the eldest sister Wu Shun who entered the palace. However, because of the rules set by Empress Changsun, Li Xiu was also very embarrassed. However, later he thought of a solution, which was to ask Wu Mingkong to find Lizhi and Yizi to help.
The rule that concubines in the palace are not allowed to meet outsiders is an iron rule set by Empress Changsun. Even she must abide by it. After her death, no one dares to violate this rule, otherwise Li Shimin would probably be blamed. However, not daring others does not mean that Li Zhi and Yizi dare not. They are Empress Changsun's biological daughters. As a daughter, they are a little naughty. Even if they break the rules of their mothers, Li Shimin, as a father, may not bear to blame them.
It was precisely because of the above that Li Xiu asked Wu Mingkong to ask Lizhi for help. Lizhi had just experienced the pain of losing her mother at this time and understood Yang's idea very well, so she agreed immediately. Today she also found an opportunity to quietly take Yang and Wu Mingkong into the palace, and then invited Wu Shun to his bedroom, which allowed them to meet.
It was getting late, and Li Xiu also speeded up and prepared to go to the Financial Management Supervision Office to get something quickly, and then go home to rest early. However, just when he first arrived at the gate of the Financial Management Office, he didn't expect that there was someone here that he didn't want to see.
"It's really hard to invite the prince-consort. Last time I asked you to talk to you, but you rejected it. This time I came here in person, hoping that the prince-consort can give me some shame!" The person who came was all white with his hair and beard. When he saw Li Xiu, he said with a smile. This person was Cui Gan, one of the representatives of the aristocratic family.
"I already understood what I said last time, why should Mr. Cui force me? What's more, we don't want to do something with each other, and there's nothing to talk about." Li Xiu said coldly at this time. Although Cui Gan did not participate in the attack last time, Cui Gan chose to join the aristocratic family afterwards, so there was no need to be too polite.
Hearing Li Xiu's words, Cui Gan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but then he returned to normal and said a little coldly: "The prince-consort used to create a bookmarket to target our aristocratic family, and now he has created a library in the Imperial College. It seems that the prince-consort is determined to be an enemy of us!"
"How do you know about the library?" Li Xiu was shocked when he heard Cui Gan's words, and then blurted out and asked loudly. After all, in addition to himself and Li Shimin, only a few people including Changsun Wuji knew about it. Moreover, Li Shimin also ordered the confidentiality in advance. As these people, it should be impossible to disclose it?
"Hehe, there is no airtight wall in this world, and the influence of our aristocratic family is far beyond your cognition. There is nothing in the court that can be hidden from us!" Cui Gan said proudly at this time. He came to Li Xiu today to have a good talk, but since Li Xiu was unwilling to talk, his attitude had to become tough.
"Hmph, so what if you know? The library is targeting your aristocratic family. What can you do with it? Are you going to assassinate me again, or set the fire again?" Li Xiu calmed down at this time, and sneered and said again, but he was secretly guessing in his heart, who leaked the news from the library?
