C19 Justification

Liesu drank the soup, washed her face, and felt much better, so she told herself darkly that this time, unless it was absolutely necessary, she was determined to avoid Yanzijun.

As soon as he made the vow, the clerk at the inn delivered a letter.

When Li Su saw the words Yan Zijun was written on the envelope, she felt a burning sensation on her face.

Zhu Yiyan looked over and asked, "Whose is it?"

It was as if someone had spied on Li Su's secrets. She hid the letter in her bosom and said, "It's nothing much. The mayor wants us to go to the City Lord's Mansion as guests."

Zhu Yiyan had watched as Li Su grew up, and her current expression looked extremely abnormal in his eyes.

Even though Li Su was disguised as a man, she was still a young girl at the beginning of her love affair, and Yan Zijun just so happened to meet a young man with an overbearing heroic spirit …

If this was what he thought, then it would be incredible.

"Milord …" Lin Hong, who had been silent this whole time, suddenly spoke up.

If Lin Hong had not taken the initiative to speak, Li Su would have completely ignored her existence, "Hm?"

"I also wish to follow sire to the City Lord's Mansion to meet with Miss A'Zi."

"It's just a small matter."

Zhu Yiyan had wanted to use the chance while they were on the road to inculcate Li Su's thoughts, but now that she had a small tail, he couldn't talk about all these matters anymore. He could only plan for the worst.

Yan Zijun held a banquet in the City Lord's Mansion. His title was due to the rescue of the eleven women from Ga Zi Village and the disintegration of a bandit's information station.

The specific location of the banquet was in the middle of the City Lord's Mansion. Yan Zijun had even invited the stage team to come over and sing a song, it was Master Hong's Plum Blossom Plum Blossom .

After she felt that Yan Zijun liked her, Yan Zi started to feel uncomfortable. After all, her current identity was Li Yang, her older brother.

Yan Zijun liked Li Yang, while he liked Li Su.

When she thought about it, Li Su felt a pang of sadness. She frowned slightly. She should have felt fear. If her brother woke up and knew about this, things might turn out this way.

Li Su didn't know if Yan Zijun was really addicted to Long Yang, but she knew that her brother had a lover in his heart.

A stage had been set up in the courtyard. Although the performance was for Master Hong's Plum Blossom Plum Blossom, Yan Zijun did not invite Master Hong to do it himself.

Yan Zijun had brought Li Su to watch Hong Ye's play once. Although Li was slightly interested in the script, Hong Ye's singing and typhoons were indeed very good.

"This is the lower section, I keep having the feeling that you should take a look." Yan Zijun strolled over to Li Su's side.

Yan Zijun did not say a word about Li Su's drunkenness last night, and Li Su was very grateful to him for that.

The lower part of "Plum Blossom Plum Blossom" was about wealthy families and poor scholars who had eloped. Because of their embarrassed lives, poor scholars quickly got tired of the sweet talk between them, and instead climbed onto the daughter of officials, successfully marrying into their family.

At this point, it was just another sorrowful story. However, it was not a heartless and unjust story in the City Lord's Mansion. Instead, it was the story of a rich family's daughter after she was abandoned.

"Did Hong Ye write this play himself?"

Yan Zijun glanced at Li Su, "How's this?"

"Only the rich know how to read and write. They are gentle and virtuous. They suddenly become heroic and unyielding. Even though it's dramatic, it feels a bit sudden." Li Su was silent for a moment before she continued, "However, this scene was rather entertaining. I just don't know what the poor scholar will do next."

"General Li is someone who loves and hates people."

"Of course." Li Su agreed without hesitation, "If a man does not disappoint me, I will not disappoint him. If a man dares to bully me, I will return three needles to him."

The way Li Su gritted her teeth made Yan Zijun lower his head and smile foolishly.

"City Lord."

Yan Zijun turned around. He had invited the distinguished guest to treat him to wine. Li Su felt her scalp tingle when she saw the wine, so she secretly moved to the side.

After watching the play, in order to pass the time, Li Su walked around the City Lord's Mansion.

Although the Bian Yang Pass was a small city at the border, the City Lord's Mansion was in no way inferior to it.

Looking around, the entire Bian Yang Pass might not be as prosperous as other cities, but it could still be considered a city with plenty of food and clothing. Furthermore, it was very rare to find such a place at the border.

There was no doubt that Yan Zijun was truly talented.

Li Su strolled around the City Lord's Mansion. When she saw that it was getting late, she thought that she could take her leave now.

On his way back, he saw that the light in Yan Zijun's study was on.

Two people's shadows were printed on the window, overlapping each other.

Out of curiosity, Li Su walked up to him quietly. There was the sound of something being broken in the room, and she pressed her ear to the window.

With a bang, the door was opened.

Lin Hong's collar was open. She looked at Li Su who was about to eavesdrop, wiped away her tears and ran away.

Li Su, who had been curious just a moment ago, was at a loss what to do. Whenever her curiosity was overflowing, she would regret it afterwards.

Why couldn't she learn a lesson every time?

The candle in the study was extinguished, and Yan Zijun walked out.

Yan Zijun also saw Li Su. He frowned, but did not explain himself.

Why did he not defend himself? He should know that he had seen it all. In that case, Lin Hong had ran out crying just now …

Li Su was waiting for Yan Zijun to explain to her why Lin Hong ran out of the study room crying and why her clothes were tattered when she ran out.

However, Yan Zijun didn't say anything, as though this matter was nothing more than a small matter.

However, in that instant, Li Su suddenly realized that there was no need for Yan Zijun to explain things to her.

All along, Yan Zijun had never said that he liked her. Everything was just her guess, and she was overestimating herself.

Yan Zijun was known as a merciful woman, while Li Su was different. She had only seen love in the plagiarism.

On the way back to the relay station, Zhu Yiyan keenly felt that something was wrong with the other two, but he didn't pay much attention to Lin Hong.

Did something happen in the City Lord's Mansion that he did not know about? Zhu Yiyan only felt a headache. Ever since he knew that Li Su had taken the initiative to take his brother's place in the battle, he had always had a nagging heart.

"General Li."

Li Su came back to her senses and her eyes met Lin Hong who was also in a daze. She sighed, "Hong'er, if he really bullied you, I would seek justice for him, no matter who he is."

When Lin Hong heard these words, her tears began to drip. She immediately kneeled in the carriage and said, "My lord, it is Hong'er's fault. It has nothing to do with the City Lord."

Lin Hong was already crying. She could only blame herself for everything, but the more she did that, the angrier Li Su got.

"Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you!"
