Chapter 256: Peach Heart Peony
"The big battle between Xiyin and Houshu this time is that even the Huangfu clan and the Xiaoshan Li family are involved, and the troops used by the two countries have already exceeded 800,000 now, it is self-evident how tragic the fight will be, how old are you this year? How can you still say such a thing!"
Recently, due to the war with Houshu, Liang Sixuan, who was already tired and his eyes were red, looked at Old Man Liang at this time, and his handsome face was about to turn purple with excitement. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But it wasn't for the sake of any happy thing.
On the contrary, at this time, Liang Sixuan was so excited because of Old Man Liang's words.
Compared with Liang Sixuan, who was almost not very angry in the past, the current old man Liang is much more abnormal.
The old man, who was often dissatisfied and angry on weekdays, was still quiet and silent without saying a word at this time when Liang Sixuan was so excited.
At this time, there were only three people in Heshouzhai's study, except for the old man Liang, who had not spoken, and Liang Sixuan, who was flushed with excitement, there was only one left, and that was the Shen family.
When Old Man Liang had just thrown a big stone, which caused the water surface to shake, Shen still looked indifferent.
No matter how excited Liang Sixuan was at this time, Shen Shi just kept his face calm and didn't say a word.
But this does not mean that Shen's heart is as indifferent as it seems.
If Liang Cheng was here, then she would know that in fact, Shen's current mood was not calm, because at the corners of Shen's eyes and eyebrows, that little shadow was a sign that would only appear when Shen's mood was unstable.
From this point of view, the stone thrown by Old Man Liang this time is really not ordinary, and now it is not only Liang Sixuan who is abnormal, but even the Shen family is also unprecedentedly emotionally turbulent.
"Before agreeing to you to go to Shanhaiguan, didn't we all say that everything is limited to stabilizing the hearts of the people, and you will never go to the battlefield in person, why did you change your mind again as soon as you came back. ”
In the end, Liang Sixuan deeply revealed a sense of tiredness.
There have indeed been too many recent changes and turmoil in Xiyin, and Lantai, headed by Liang Sixuan and other three dukes, has indeed almost reached the point where people are turning their backs in the recent days.
As one of the three giants of Lantai, Liang Sixuan, how much pressure he is under is self-evident.
Not to mention that at this time, after being smashed by Old Man Liang again, Liang Sixuan really felt a little exhausted.
"You sit in Lantai every day, and you should have personally read every military report that you keep sending back every day, so you should know nothing more about what the current situation is at the border pass, right?"
But just before Liang Sixuan was about to be overwhelmed by the surging tiredness, Old Man Liang finally spoke.
As before, Old Man Liang's fiery temper seems to have disappeared, and in the paragraph just now, the tone is extremely depressed, and even a little negative, it seems that the situation at the border is not good.
"No matter how bad it is, it shouldn't be your responsibility anymore, father. ”
Shen, who had not spoken since just now, finally spoke at this time.
As soon as Shen's words landed, Liang Sixuan was obviously stunned, and as for the old man Liang on the first seat, he seemed to be even more silent.
"Since 'he' forced you to hand over the handsome seal, no matter what happens in Shanhaiguan, it shouldn't be your father anymore. But Shen didn't seem to notice that Old Man Liang and Liang Sixuan were wrong at all, she just said plainly.
As for what the "back then" in Shen's words refers to, there is nothing that the three people here don't know.
Even the old steward of Chengping, who was guarding the door, suddenly fell silent at this time.
"Yes. ”
But just when the atmosphere gradually fell silent, Liang Sixuan suddenly spoke, he looked at Old Man Liang and said, "Mingyue is right, father, you shouldn't meddle in the affairs of Shanhaiguan anymore." ”
At this time, Liang Sixuan and Shen had a rare unification of opinion, and when they looked at Old Man Liang, they said the same words, and Old Man Liang was silent about this, which made Liang Sixuan more and more anxious.
But when Liang Sixuan was so anxious that he was about to continue to persuade Old Man Liang, Shen suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him.
Shen shook his head gently at Liang Sixuan, signaling that he couldn't be too hasty with the old man, otherwise it would cause the opposite effect, but Liang Sixuan still pulled Shen's hand down at first, intending to continue to persuade his stubborn old man.
But Shen resolutely stopped Liang Sixuan, and Liang Sixuan didn't expect Shen to insist like this, so after hesitating for a while, he finally sighed dejectedly and obeyed Shen's meaning.
In Tsurushou Zhai, it was completely silent again for a while.
……
……
"Why didn't you let me finish my words just now, my father is just nonsense, how can I let my father be so nonsense? This year is obviously that old, and you still want to agree to the proposal of the old man of the Yu family and take over the position of commander this time?"
Halfway through speaking, Liang Sixuan rubbed his eyebrows with several folds, and sighed deeply, "The old man of the Yu family also thinks that the situation is not big enough, how can he still pinch the old man like this at this time, is it because he is not busy enough and chaotic enough?"
Liang Sixuan's tone was full of tiredness, but Shen Shi only gently handed him a glass of Songmeng.
"Old man Yu can't help it, shouldn't you know best what the situation in Shanhaiguan is like now?"
If it weren't for the fact that he was almost in a state of destituteness, how could the old man of the Yu family, who was familiar with the events of the year, say those words to the old man, and how could he sprinkle salt on the old man's wounds.
Shen understands this truth, so Liang Sixuan naturally won't understand it.
It's just that the anxiety in his heart can't be solved now, so Liang Sixuan said those words with some complaints, but at this time, after hearing Shen's answer, he looked at her again and said, "What about you, why did you stop me just now?"
Shen Shi paused and replied: "Father was so quiet just now, I know that the situation is wrong at a glance, if we force each other too much, then I'm afraid that my father will really have to go his own way, and then it will be counterproductive?"
Old Man Liang's temperament, Liang Sixuan and Shen couldn't understand it better, so as soon as Shen's words were finished, Liang Sixuan immediately sighed helplessly, and the wrinkles in his eyebrows seemed to be deeper.
"In the current situation, even if my father is really willing to take over the handsome seal, it will take a few more days to make an accurate conclusion, and there is not a lot of time left for us, so you don't have to worry so much. ”
Shen gave Liang Sixuan a rare comfort.
And this kind of harmony is indeed a long time gone for the two of them.
On the bank of Nanlan River, in the main room, the huge floor-to-ceiling silk inlaid with gemstones peach heart peony lampholder bloomed with bright orange lights in the dark night, reflecting the main room brightly lit and like day.
And because of today's twists and turns and accidents in the Zhendong General's Mansion, Liang Sixuan and Shen were already very tired at this time, and the two of them quieted down again after a conversation that stopped at one point.
Only the core of the peach heart peony lampholder remained, and from time to time there would be some slight crackling flame burning sound.
Everything, it was so quiet!
And this is the first feeling after Liang Cheng returned to the Zhendong General's Mansion with Liang Ji, who had a very bad face all the way, and arrived at the bank of Nanlan River.
What's going on? Liang Cheng frowned a little, wondering what was going on in the house, how could this situation appear?
Didn't my grandfather come back, even if the atmosphere in the house was not festive, it shouldn't be as lifeless as it is now, this is too much different from the usual Zhendong General's Mansion.
Liang Cheng was puzzled, and Liang Ji was naturally the same.
Although she had just heard the news that her grandfather had returned in the Tai Academy, she had no other feelings except shock, but after a long journey home, no matter how much shock she had, she could come back to her senses.
Therefore, the current Liang Ji is the second lady of the Liang family who has returned to normal, and is also the same as Liang Cheng, as soon as she stepped into the mansion, she already felt the abnormality of the Zhendong General's Mansion today.
"What's the matter? When we went to Heshouzhai just now, we were stopped from a distance, why does it seem to be too quiet on the bank of Nanlan River?"
Liang Ji turned her head to look at Liang Cheng, her eyebrows had already frowned, and she asked with some surprise in her expression.
"I don't know. ”
And Liang Ming's answer was even more brief, she quietly looked at the bright lights on the bank of Nanlan Creek for a while, and then suddenly turned her eyes to look at Liang Ji and said, "Let's go back today." ”
Liang Ji was stunned, "What are you talking about?" ”
When the two of them came back, they didn't go to ask Mr. Liang for peace, so it could be said that they were blocked out and couldn't get in.
But now if you don't ask Liang Sixuan and Shen for peace, then there is nothing to shirk, this is to be known by Liang Sixuan and Shen, and it can be crowned with huge crimes such as faux pas, disrespect, etc., and even the word "unfilial piety" can be pulled up.
Such a major sin, how could Liang Ji be willing to bear it.
So now, she retracted her gaze from staring at the bank of Nanlan Creek before, turned her head and raised her eyebrows to look at Liang Cheng, looking at her in disbelief.
"I just saw from a distance the figure of Eiki entering before us. But Liang Cheng ignored Liang Ji's provocative gaze, and just said lightly.
"So what, Eiki may have just gone in to convey something for his father. ”
"But we've been standing here for so long, but Rong Mu hasn't come out yet, what does this have to convey to delay for so long?" Liang Cheng looked at Liang Ji fixedly, and said, "There is only one possibility, my father is also on the bank of Nanlan River now." ”
Liang Ji's breathing suddenly stagnated, but then she wanted to refute Liang Cheng again.
But this time, Liang Cheng grabbed ahead of her and said: "Second sister, you said that the house was so abnormal tonight after my grandfather came back, and now my father is in Nanlan Creek, will this be a situation where nothing happened?"
Liang Cheng's words sounded illogical at first glance, but Liang Ji immediately understood.
Liang Sixuan hasn't stayed in Nanlan Creek for a long, long time.
Even if there was something that needed to be discussed with the Shen family in the past, it would be resolved quickly, and it would never be delayed, so it became more and more abnormal compared to normal times in the situation at this time.
Besides, Liang Cheng made it clear that before they arrived, she had already seen Rong Mu enter from a distance, which meant that before that, Liang Sixuan was probably already on the bank of Nanlan River.
If this is true, then then things are not usually wrong.
Liang Jiaodai's eyebrows locked, and a trace of solemnity appeared in her eyes, what she said just now was just to refute Liang Cheng.
But now after listening to Liang Cheng's words, Liang Ji instantly discovered the seriousness of it, and if things are really like what they thought, then at this time, neither Liang Cheng nor she is indeed suitable to go in and ask for peace.
Silence suddenly descended between Liang Cheng and Liang Ji.
The two of them didn't speak again for a long time, and in the end, Liang Cheng couldn't resist the constant howling winter wind, so she spoke to Liang Yi again: "If the second sister still thinks it's inappropriate, why don't we send a maid in and ask first?"
Liang Ji pondered for a while, then nodded, "Just do as you say." ”
Liang Cheng and Liang Ji rarely reached a consensus, so the two sent a little maid in to report, saying that Liang Cheng and the others had come to ask for peace for the Shen family.
It was very quiet on the banks of Nanlan Creek, and not long after the little maid entered, Liang Cheng and Liang Ji saw her running back in a hurry.
"Sister Rongqin said, please the second and third ladies go back first, the lady has already fallen asleep, so let's come back tomorrow morning to say goodbye. The little maid was out of breath all the way, but she still tried to convey the words of the piano clearly.
And in this way, what Liang Cheng and Liang Ji thought of before was naturally self-evidently confirmed, it seems that when they went to the Tai Academy for a banquet, something did happen in the mansion.
"Second sister, it seems that we can only go back separately first. But no matter what happened, it was not the same thing for them to stand here stupidly, so Liang Ming, who had long been unable to hold on, took the lead in saying goodbye to Liang Ji.
"What the third sister said is reasonable, then let's break up here. "Being able to break up with Liang Cheng here and leave is exactly what Liang Ji couldn't ask for.
