Chapter 46: Heroes in Troubled Times (5)

I slept a lot during the day, and I couldn't sleep at night, and when I heard the sound of someone pushing the door in, I immediately tensed my expression, moved my body slightly and looked at the door, and I was relieved to see the familiar figure of the person who came.

Li Xie stood in front of her bed, lifted the thin curtain of the bed and looked at her condescendingly, looking at her expression that had just relaxed, the corners of her mouth hooked a little smile, and her tone was disdainful, "You're so timid." โ€

Lying down quietly, he rolled his eyes, "It's not as good as my brother, and I am familiar with the bedroom of visiting my sister at night." โ€

As soon as she finished speaking, her forehead was flicked by someone, but the force was neither light nor heavy, "It's getting more and more sharp against me." โ€

He was obviously in a good mood, and he didn't mean to worry about her anymore, so he poured himself a cup of tea while sitting at the table, and he didn't pick about the tea that was already cold, and by the way, he poured her a lamp, and when he put it down, he gently buttoned his fingers on the table.

It's going to be a code word between them.

Jing Hao obediently got up and sat down at the table, close, even his somewhat stuffy nose could smell the smell of wine on his body, "Brother has gained a lot of benefits this time, he didn't go back to the bedroom after drinking, but came to me for tea." โ€

And dare to sit in her bedroom in the middle of the night and drink tea, and swaggered in through the main entrance, and eighty percent of the servant girls waiting outside have been put down by him.

She also took a sip of the cold tea, and her somewhat hoarse voice cleared up a little, and she raised her glass to him again, replacing the wine with tea, "Congratulations, brother, for successfully taking Captain Feng under your command." โ€

The concubine of the Feng family watched her being forced into the lake with her own eyes, Tian Feng was brought in by the Feng family, but the person she sent to inquire did not mention Feng Duwei, and the eight achievements were that the person in front of him took out the family cleanly, and held this handle, so that people had to secretly join his command.

Li Xie glanced at her, and suddenly reached out and touched her head, acting like teasing a pet, "This brain is a bit like my sister." โ€

Heh, I really thought he was the only one who was smart and cool.

Typical adolescent secondary disease.

Jing Hao put down the teacup in her hand, and when she got up, she was almost as tall as the person who was sitting, and touched his head as soon as she stretched out her hand, "Brother should go back and rest earlier, lack of sleep will hinder your height," she put down her hand after touching it, and yawned gracefully, "Jing'er won't send it personally, Brother Don't alarm the guards in the house before going out." โ€

There was a dead silence in the bedroom.

Jing Hao wrapped himself in the quilt and turned over, nesting himself in the warm quilt to resist the overwhelming cold air.

Finally, in a daze, I heard a muffled sound of the door closing.

After the second day, the servant maid cleaned up the bedroom and her face turned white, "Do you know where a teacup on the table is missing?" It was a gift from God today. โ€

Jing turned her head to look, and the reflected light could even see a shallow groove on the solid wood table, she reached out and rubbed the scalp that she still had some pain, and replied calmly, "I broke it yesterday and threw it away, just change it." โ€

It's a pity that I didn't see the face of my brother who was angry last night but had to endure it.

Li Guan returned to the house, the movement was not small, after the royal reception banquet, the house held another one, although it was called a family banquet, but there were not a few ministers who came and went, Li Guan uncharacteristically rejected them one by one, gave enough face to the king, and returned the congratulatory gifts sent to the house one by one.

Jing Hao was the most popular among his children, and she was the daughter who could not participate in the battle for heirs, and he was taken by his side from the morning of the banquet, and did not shy away from her when talking to several ministers, until the dinner was about to begin, and did not let her go back to the room to prepare.

Jing Hao walked back while combing through the news she got today, and turned to Li Xie's Qiyuan as soon as her footsteps turned, "I suddenly remembered that there was a silk flower left at my brother's, you go back and smoke my skirt first." โ€

Li Xie relieved the right to approve the report after Li Guan came back, and stayed in the study for several days, and when he raised his eyes and saw the people who came in, the expression on his face was quite distorted.

"I'm not here to argue with my brother." Jing Hao intercepted his words as soon as he opened his mouth, and briefly summarized the news revealed by Li Guan when he was discussing with those ministers today.

"Father, is this planning to show goodwill to the Yuan family? Didn't he hand over the right to approve the report to me at the beginning of last month and slapped the Yuan family in the face? Li Xie habitually reached out and buckled it on the table again, and only after bumping into the tea cup she pushed over did he pick it up and take a sip, and there was no trace of respect for the royal family and biological father mentioned in the words between his tone.

"It seems that eighty percent of the front-line battles are not going well, and they are still in a weak position under containment."

He frowned and came to the conclusion that in the last life, that is, in October of this year, the two countries of Ukraine and Yan attacked the Si Dynasty at the same time, and the army that had been tired of fighting on the front line was defeated one after another, and there were spies in the court, and when the troops were transferred to defend Haocheng, the enemy army was directly mixed in, causing Haocheng to be besieged for more than half a month, and the civilians in the city were almost dead in their prime, and the women, children, and old people starved to death.

Unexpectedly, as early as this time, the battle on the front line had already been lost.

Thinking that he was in the previous life, he was in a hurry to return to the front line after recovering from his injuries, and tried his best to hold a city during the siege of the two armies, but after returning to Haocheng, he was accused of dereliction of duty and lost the last trace of his father's family affection, and even Tian Feng's villain could plant the crime on his head.

"Brother," Jing Hao pulled Li Xie with a gloomy smile, not knowing what he was thinking, "Have you figured out how to deal with it?" โ€

According to Li Guan's character, if he really wants to show goodwill to the royal family, he will save the previous slap in the face, and then he will definitely push out Li Xie, who took over the approval at that time, and at most he will only bear the charge of "not being strict with his godson".

Li Guan glanced at her with a teacup, seeing that she was really a little worried about him

He really didn't take this matter to heart, there were even more excessives in the previous life, and he had no expectations for Li Guan for a long time.

Jing Hao stared at him for a while, then got up and saluted and said goodbye.

There are many concubines in the Great Sima Mansion, and there are many children, and a family banquet can be held with great momentum, two columns of teams are lined up in turn, and several columns of secondary seats are prepared, and they are full of people.

Several grown up sons, except for the third son who came back to recuperate, the other four stayed on the front line, I heard that they have also made a lot of military achievements, and the lord of Lang plans to report to the top after the year, even if there is no heir, I am afraid that it will be much higher than ordinary people.

Several concubines who had given birth to sons looked at the eldest woman sitting next to the main seat with hatred, and the jealousy in their eyes was almost on fire, and when they saw the small seat next to the main seat, they gritted their silver teeth.

The son born is a military meritorious outsider, and the daughter born is more worthy of the lord than the son!

Halfway through the banquet, Li Xie put down the wine bottle in his hand, and looked up at the person at the head of the heir's seat, "Xie'er, I heard that you have been in the study recently to approve the report?" โ€

As soon as he spoke, the banquet, which was still a little noisy, instantly quieted down, and his tone became more and more majestic in the emptiness, "That necropsy is a thing that is presented today, how can you be unmeasured and do something in it?" Even for the Father, he is also cautious in dealing with it, and he does it according to the will of the present. โ€

As soon as his words came out, everyone present understood what he meant, and in an instant, a few people couldn't help but show gloating.

I used to envy him for getting such a position, but I didn't expect to be pushed out as a scapego today.

Li Xie didn't refute a word, got up and knelt in the hall, and buckled the ground with his forehead.

Madame Yin moved her mouth, and pressed all the words in a glance of Li Guan.

Li Guan was obviously quite satisfied with the knowledge of the people present, and the corners of his mouth also brought out a little smile, "Okay, tomorrow you will enter the palace with your father to take the blame, and let you decide your guilt today." โ€

Guilty of guilt.

This has evolved into a kind of greed for life and fear of death in the Si Dynasty, โ–กโ–ก the upper body from the door of the house to the imperial city, and the people who see it on the road can throw sundries to show their resentment.

Li Guan obviously wanted to give up his son's face and block everyone's mouth.

His hands couldn't help but clench tightly in his sleeves, and the word of reply was blocked in his throat and he couldn't spit out again.

"Brother is going to take the blame?" Jing Hao, who was sitting next to the main seat, opened his mouth in a deep silence, Qingli and a little delicate with a soft and glutinous tone, "Isn't it that half of the people in the city have seen Brother A's appearance, Jing'er looks so similar to Brother A, and when she goes out in the future, she won't be treated as Brother Throwing rotten eggs, right?" โ€

She frowned, as if she was really just expressing her doubts.

Li Guan picked up the wine glass for a moment, looked at his daughter and then asked Li Xie, who was hanging his head, to raise his head, and after a careful look, he found that the two were really very similar, but his phoenix eyes were like a woman, but his daughter's apricot eyes were with him, and at first glance it was really a little indistinguishable.

But there is a difference in age, and it is still a difference between men and women.

"Even if you don't recognize Jing'er as a brother, you must know that Jing'er is the sister of your brother, and it's best for Jing'er not to even participate in the banquet in the future, so as not to gossip behind people's backs......"

She muttered a few words in distress, and turned her head to look at Li Guan, whose face was already a little ugly, "Father, don't let Brother take the blame, isn't it okay, wasn't he sick for a while before today?" Brother must have been worried about Jinshang's body when he handled the negligence without authorization, not on purpose. โ€

She saw that Li Guan was still struggling, and immediately sacrificed what he cared about the most, "Jing'er doesn't want to become a bad girl who is pointed at by others, and she will lose her good reputation and good luck." โ€

The fortune of this daughter, which is connected to his fortune, has been confirmed many times, and it has deservedly become Li Guan's death hole, even if he has more concerns in his heart, he must take care of more important fortunes before such damage.

Especially now that the situation on the front line is still difficult to discern, success or failure is uncertain.

Fortunately, Jing'er gave him a more appropriate excuse just now, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Was you sick before today?" My father doesn't know about this yet, but he blames Xie Er, so you can follow me into the palace tomorrow and explain it to today, so as not to misunderstand outsiders together. โ€

Li Xie got up in response, but after sitting down, he completely lost his appetite for eating, and unconsciously raised his eyes to look at the person sitting next to the main seat.

It really looks like him.

He hadn't found out before.

Perhaps his gaze was too focused and undisguised, and the person being stared at finally couldn't help but turn his head towards him, and the smile was almost the same as the one he usually looked at condescendingly from her bed.

I'm so proud.

Li Xie picked up the teacup and put it to his mouth, it's okay, it's also a sister, let's take care of it in the future, just don't starve to death.
