Chapter 699: Chengjue

When Lan Xi heard this, he felt a little funny, when did this person learn to be a scoundrel?

"How can I be lazy with the excuse of my father's and mother's funeral? Isn't that unfilial piety? ”

Geng Xiwu frowned and said, "How do you call filial piety?" How can it be called unfilial piety? Filial piety or unfilial piety is in your heart, and you have a clear conscience. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Moreover, they are only afraid and do not want to see you tired, you and the children are good, is the real filial piety to them! ”

Since yesterday, Geng Xiwu has almost not said a word, and today it is rare to open his mouth, Lan Xi is naturally happy, but in order to persuade her to pretend to be sick, Lan Xi can't help but cry and laugh.

"Senior brother, but keeping filial piety for my father and mother is my filial piety, and I don't do it for anyone to see."

Geng Xiwu frowned, obviously still a little disapproving.

"Don't worry! Brother! I have a sense of proportion, if I really can't stand it, it's not too late to get sick then, what do you say? Lan Xi saw that he wanted to say something when he opened his mouth, and hurriedly said.

Geng Xiwu frowned, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.

But in his heart, he knew that Lan Xi was soft on the surface, but in fact, he was also stubborn in his bones, so he had to let Qin's mother pay more attention and let her rest if she stole the opportunity. At night, he resolutely refused to let her keep her spirit, and personally escorted her back to Qingpingju to rest.

Fortunately, others also knew that Lanxi's situation was special, and even Shen Yanshu didn't dare to say anything.

Sure enough, as Geng Xiwu expected, until he sent the Marquis of Jingbei up the mountain, Lanxi did not take care of his illness, and kept watch in front of the spirit. And even Geng Xiwu had taken precautions early, when it came to the matter, she was tired enough.

"Come, drink this bowl of bird's nest porridge, and get a good night's sleep. Look at you! It's only been a few days, and I'm so thin that my chin is pointed. Pressing the person on the bed, Geng Xiwu's eyebrows were almost tied into a dead knot.

"Just say that I, you yourself are not the same? In a few days, I lost weight like this. Lan Xi saw his appearance, why didn't he feel distressed! He has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't feel good in his heart, and he is physically and mentally exhausted! It's no wonder that he's so haggard.

As soon as his eyes lit up, Lan Xi moved to the inside of the bed, then patted the vacated position, and said, "In this way, you can also lie down with me." ”

Geng Xiwu has no habit of taking a nap, not to mention, there are still a lot of things to deal with in the house, but when he raised his eyes and saw Lanxi's bright phoenix eyes, he couldn't say anything if he refused, so he pulled the corners of his mouth and responded, "Okay!" He lay down beside her.

Lan Xi was still not satisfied, pulled his arm, and rolled into his arms. Buried in her chest, his breath was familiar, his breath, Lan Xi couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction, "It's so good!" There's so much going on these days, I can't remember how long it's been since I've slept in your arms like this. ”

Geng Xiwu's eyes deepened, and two traces of amber light flowed out, and he raised his hand and gently smoothed her hair, "In the future, I will have a lot of time to accompany you, and at that time, you should not get bored." "The Marquis of Jingbei passed away, it stands to reason that he will worry about Ding for three years, the excerpt has been handed over, and it must be approved in a few days.

Lan Xi drilled into his arms again, "If you don't want to bore me, you have to behave better." ”

"Sleep!" Geng Xiwu whispered in her ear, and the porcelain heavy voice made her heart inexplicably settled, and sleepiness came up.

Lan Xi nodded and closed his eyes in his arms, but after a while, his breathing became even.

Geng Xiwu looked at the person in his arms, his amber eyes lingered on her sweet sleeping face, and then, he lowered his head and lightly imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and then closed his eyes, thinking that he couldn't sleep, but maybe he was really tired, but this sleep, but he slept until the sun went down, and the night fell.

On the second day, the holy decree arrived in the mansion, but it was to let Geng Xiwu inherit the title of Marquis of Jingbei, and to approve his will for three years.

It wasn't until he thanked the holy grace and held the bright yellow holy decree in his hand that Geng Xiwu quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Earlier, there was news in the palace that the new emperor was very hesitant and had the idea of winning love and letting him stay in the court. Although he is not obvious on his face, he is always up and down in his heart, and he is really afraid that today's will is not to allow him to worry, but to win love!

Now, I can finally rest assured. Sending the inner servant of the decree away, Geng Xiwu hurriedly returned to Qingpingju. When he told Lan Xi about this, Lan Xi was also relieved, in recent days, a heart that has been hanging in the air and can't go up can finally be put back in his stomach.

Others said that Geng Xiwu was unlucky, and now Daqing is in ruins, and the new emperor has succeeded to the throne. Although some time ago due to the snow disaster, there was a quarrel between the new emperor and Geng Xiwu, but after all, they are cousins, and they used to be very close, Geng Xiwu retreated from the enemy earlier, Wei Chengjun rebelled with King An, and now he has been beheaded, and the position of the military governor of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is vacant, and it is difficult to ensure that it does not fall on Geng Xiwu, and it is time to show his strength. However, at this time, the Marquis of Jingbei died.

As soon as the Marquis of Jingbei died like this, Geng Xiwu, as the son of the world, naturally inherited the title as a matter of course, but, on the other hand, he also had to worry about it for three years.

Three years, that's not a short time, three years is enough time for the new emperor to cultivate his own power, and enough for all important positions in the court, all of which are occupied by people, and sit firmly, after three years, Geng Xiwu returned to the court, but I am afraid that the daylily will be cold, and there will be no place for him in the court. The title of a marquis of Yipin, without military power and power, is just an empty shelf, what is the great thing about the noble capital everywhere?

could have reached the sky in one step, but it became what it is now, isn't it just bad luck? To say, it's really not the right time for this Marquis of Jingbei to die. I heard that their father and son are not close, and I don't want this father and son to be afraid that they are enemies in their previous lives! Otherwise, this Marquis of Jingbei will not die, and he will also block his son's future.

Lan Xi couldn't listen to all these discussions of outsiders, but he could guess a rough idea.

But she and Geng Xiwu didn't think so, many things that happened earlier were unknown to others, but they knew it. As for the new emperor, I'm afraid that he doesn't know anything at all, but now he is acting as if nothing happened, but the king's heart is unpredictable, who knows if he really doesn't mind in his heart? At this time, it is not a good thing to retreat from the cusp of the storm by taking advantage of the death of the Marquis of Jingbei.

What's more, the earlier incident also gave Geng Xiwu a wake-up call.

A double marquis, in charge of most of the military power in Daqing, the current queen mother is the daughter of the Geng family, and the new emperor also has the blood of the Geng family, the Geng family, too eye-catching. It is the momentum of flowers and flowers and boiling oil that the emperor can suspect them at that time, so what about the future? How could the new emperor believe in them? Meritorious service is the greatest sin.

The Geng family has always stood too high, so high that it pierced the eyes of the master of the country, and it was time to retreat.
