Chapter 152: Chess Pieces
"You don't know, this won't be written in the Di newspaper. www.biquge.info Two months ago, Princess Qi had just given birth to a son, who was the first son of King Qi and the first of his grandchildren. ”
"Princess Qi is from the Dingbei Hou Mansion of the Geng family and is the cousin of the senior brother, and the biological mother of the King of Qi is the late Concubine Xian, who is also from the Geng family......"
Seeing Lan Xi's words here, and seeing that her face was already dark, Lu Zhan knew that she had figured out the joints, so he couldn't help but smile and shrug his shoulders.
Lan Xi's expression was inexplicable, but after a while, he said in a somewhat stiff tone, "In the final analysis, Senior Brother has just become a victim of the balance of power in the present. In the hands of those in power, the rest are just pawns. ”
"Being able to be used as a pawn by others at least shows that you still have the value of being a pawn. Besides, it is still unknown who is the chess piece and who is the promoter of chess! Don't forget, your senior brother is the best at gambling, and there are not many people in this world who can play chess. Lu Zhan smiled, and at the end, he squeezed his eyes towards Lanxi.
Lan Xi's eyes lit up, "Master, what do you mean .......?"
"I didn't mean anything. It's just that you have to relax. Your brother is a smart person, he knows what he should do, and you, too, are smart people, he knows what he should do. ”
Lan Xi quickly laughed, "Of course, find your wine quickly, the guests are still waiting." Also, you should be able to tell the third master what you said, right? Otherwise, I'm just afraid that the person who can't sleep won't be me. ”
"You, you underestimate Jingzhi too much, he is the helmsman of the Lan clan that your grandfather likes, your grandfather, that's an old fox, the person he likes, can it be worse?"
"Yes! Be! Be! With you two old foxes with me, if I don't become a little fox, I won't be able to live with your second elder. ”
"Stinky girl, no big or small, begging to beat!"
When he arrived at the banquet, Fu Xiuyun's face was the same, he was still talking and laughing with excellent demeanor, advancing and retreating in a certain way, as if the earlier game had not happened, but the little girl Fu Xinyi still had some scorn on her face, and Lan Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw this.
After eating, because of the earlier incident, several people did not stay longer, so they resigned Lu Zhan and returned to Lan Mansion. When they arrived at the second gate, Lan Xi and Fu Xinyi got out of the carriage, Lan Xi was uneasy, and finally found an opportunity to talk to Fu Xiuyun alone. "Cousin, sir, he always likes to talk with thorns, and it's the same as us, so he didn't mean to target you on purpose, cousin, don't be careful, and don't mind."
Fu Xiuyun looked at Lan Xi's serious eyes and serious expression, but he couldn't help it and laughed lowly.
Lan Xi was puzzled, frowned, and looked at him suspiciously. He smiled and said, "I can get my cousin to help explain, this Mr. Lu is really a close and respectful elder to my cousin." Lan Xi was still puzzled, over there, Fu Xiuyun had already chuckled, and said, "Actually, Mr. Lu is not wrong, when he was young, he went his own way because of a little frivolity, and as he got older, he was in that place in the capital...... You know, unconsciously trapping yourself in the so-called gentleman's way. In fact, this gentleman's way is not a mask, hiding the truth in the heart, and gradually, this mask will become one with the person who wears it, and it can no longer be taken off. There is nothing wrong with saying that it is a disguise or a hypocrisy. It's just that people live in this world, how many people can be willful and only be themselves? ”
Lan Xi listened, her heart was shocked, and it was only at this moment that she looked at the man in front of her, who was already Tanhualang, and also smiled bitterly at the corner of his lips, the depth of his eyes was under his eyes, and his eyes moved slightly, and it was difficult to speak.
There was a subtle heaviness in the atmosphere, and Fu Xiuyun suddenly chuckled, "Cousin doesn't say anything to comfort and comfort, isn't it that my cousin also feels that my cousin, this gentleman, really needs to add a 'pseudo' word in front of him?" ”
Lan Xi twisted his eyebrows and thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "If it's about my cousin who doesn't know the way very well, and he still wants to save face and refuses to admit it, then it's not wrong." ”
Fu Xiuyun was choked by his own saliva, Lan Xi couldn't help but hide his lips and smile when he saw this, Fu Xiuyun was also embarrassed, and after a while, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you remember?" ”
"Cousin's handle, naturally remember! For the sake of my cousin's flawless image, would my cousin consider giving me some hush money? Lan Xi playfully spread his palms towards Fu Xiuyun and winked with a smile.
Fu Xiuyun looked at the white and tender palm spread in front of him, the lines were staggered, it is said that it was a person's fate, and in an instant, the atrium seemed to be soaked in hot water, warm and a little swollen. Fu Xiuyun bent the corners of his lips slightly, his eyes were like stars over the deep sea in the dark night, and they were bright in an instant, "I owe it first!" This is my big secret, and this hush money naturally can't be sloppy. ”
It's a joke, and Lan Xi naturally won't take it to heart, so he smiled and said, "Then I'll wait." And so he took it.
"Cousin, you're actually pretty good, at least you're comfortable with yourself. In this world, there are many people, even if they know the truth under their masks, but they can't even be calm with themselves, so it's good that you take it seriously. Lan Xi turned her head to look, Liuyan stood a step away, but Lan Hao had already looked over here, she really couldn't say more, before turning to leave, she thought about it, but she still said these words, and when Fu Xiuyun's eyes shone at her, she had already turned around.
"Cousin!" Fu Xiuyun suddenly called behind her, Lan Xi turned around, and saw Fu Xiuyun smiling, a brilliant flight that had never been seen since the reunion, "Tomorrow I want to take Yi'er to the city for a walk, I wonder if my cousin is willing to go with us?" Whether it's doing your best as a landlord or helping your cousin, I hope you can agree. After all, you know, I really don't know the road, let alone this Huzhou...... If you don't know each other well, if there is no one to follow, how can I get lost with Yi'er? As you said, be honest with yourself. ”
Lan Xi's face changed a few times, but after a while, he replied with a smile, "My cousin also knows that I do have a lot of homework. However, I can try to see if I can take out the time to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, but I can't guarantee that it will be tomorrow. But it doesn't matter, not tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow. Not the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will be long. ”
Hearing this, Fu Xiuyun finally settled down, and watched Lan Xi walk away with a smile, his heart was filled with joy.
Behind him, someone quietly approached and asked in a low voice like thunder in his ears, "Brother, do you like Cousin Xi?" (To be continued.) )
