Chapter 689: Reckoning

Lan Xi followed behind Concubine Xian, and when he rushed all the way to Qingyun Palace, he happened to bump into Master Lan San and the other two adults coming out of the hall with solemn expressions. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lan Xi was not too surprised because he knew it in his heart.

On the contrary, when Master Lan San saw his daughter here and now, he was very suspicious in his heart, and his eyebrows frowned slightly. He heard that his daughter was taken into the palace by the Queen Mother a few days ago, but at this time, she was summoned to this place by a family member of a foreign minister, which had to make people suspicious. However, this is really not a place and time to speak, so in the end, I had to take a quick look.

In the end, Lan Xi's heart fell silent, in the final analysis, today she is just a spectator, even if Mother Qin, Qiyue and Changrou are all locked in the Yuyu Palace by the posture of Concubine Xian, even if the person who is holding her around her has become the Miaozhu with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, even if it is covered by the sleeve, Lan Xi can clearly feel the dagger against the back of her waist, Lan Xi at this time, but she does not feel too afraid. gave Master Lan San a reassuring look, and she followed Concubine Xian into the hall.

Master Lan San was stunned for a moment in the night outside the hall, until he saw that the father and son of Jingbei Hou were also hurrying in the night, and looked at each other, so they calmed down a little. Seeing them also enter the hall, the third master Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and only then entered the side hall to rest for a while, before the Holy Dragon was buried and returned to the sky, these close ministers who had been entrusted with important tasks had to guard here.

Jingbei Hou and Geng Xiwu entered the palace, not surprisingly, the curtain in the hall hung low, the doors and windows were closed, and a dull and suffocating aroma mixed with the smell of medicine hit the nose. It was so quiet that the needle could be heard, and if it weren't for the flickering candles, the figures of people in the tent could be faintly seen, almost making people think that the hall was empty.

Chang Gonggong came out of nowhere, but he raised his eyes and quickly glanced at the Geng family father and son with a sinking face, so he lowered his head, didn't dare to take another look, and only silently and respectfully led the way for the two.

Lifting the heavy curtain, the low coughing sound was finally close at hand, and when he raised his eyes, the dragon couch was behind the heavy curtain that hung down, but Geng Xiwu saw at a glance Lan Xi who was standing in the lower corner of the dragon couch, which was already pot-bellied. Farewell, it has been a few months, when he left Beijing to go to Beiguan, Ah Qing was only slightly in the lower abdomen, but now, the figure that was originally a slender noodle has been completely deformed, but this does not hinder the ecstasy in Geng Xiwu's eyes for a moment. At that moment, he completely forgot about the current situation, forgot about the other people in this hall, and subconsciously took a step towards her.

But for a moment, his steps froze.

The first is the hand of the Marquis of Jingbei in front of him, the second is the slight smile and calm face of Lan Xi when he looks at him, and the silver dagger that appeared in front of him deliberately in front of her waist for him to see.

Geng Xiwu's eyes shrank, but he finally stopped his pace, and the murderous aura rising in his eyes was suppressed at the bottom of his eyes because Lan Xi shook his head gently at him, but his hands were quietly pulled into fists.

Concubine Xian's gaze seemed to be full of interest, and slowly moved from the father and son who were sinking like water, and when they fell behind them, her eyebrows frowned unhappily, and said, "What? Yue Qingwu didn't dare to come? ”

"You are so sincere in your invitation, you dare not come." A delicate voice sounded behind the curtain, and a figure wrapped in a dark cloak slowly walked from behind the heavy curtain, and the low-hanging hood covered most of his face, revealing only a pair of red lips, reflecting the snow-white to almost transparent complexion, so delicate that it was two points bewitching.

Seeing this, Concubine Xian sneered, her eyes narrowed, and two traces of hatred burst out, "Until now, do you still need to hide and pretend?" ”

The words have come to this point, but the person who came did not refute it, but raised his plain white hand and gently took off the hood on his head, revealing a pair of eyes, sparkling and crystal clear amber. It is the perfect fusion of the two completely different temperaments of dignified and charming on the body, the unique beauty in the world, she is not a high position in this palace, but the only favored concubine. She died once, and when she came back to life, she was just a walking corpse, and before she died, her name was Yue Qingwu. She has a husband and a son, and she is the second grandmother of the former Zhenxi Hou Mansion, and now the former wife of the Marquis of Jingbei, and the biological mother of the Marquis of Jingbei.

"Jingxian, don't come to harm?"

Jingxian is the name of Concubine Xian. But this name spit out from Yue Qingwu's mouth, obviously making Concubine Xian extremely irritated, and her face was distorted for a moment, "Shut up!" Who are you to call Hongu by name? All these years, you have been avoiding me, if it is not necessary, never see each other, isn't it because you have a weak heart, you feel guilty, not because you dare not see this palace? Now, in what capacity is this name called? The palace should have been dead for more than 20 years, and the grass on the grave should have withered and green for more than 20 years. Or is it the shameless woman who seduces the saint as a married woman, and finally abandons his wife and children, and becomes the only concubine in this palace who has the grace of the saint? ”

"Jingxian!" This voice, from the Marquis of Jingbei, was angry and resentful, with a warning.

"Jingxian." This voice, from Yue Qingwu, was very calm, without half of the ups and downs of emotions, just as she looked at her at this time, her eyes did not flicker for half a minute, "You know, the things of the year were not what you said." And you, because of the truth you are willing to believe, have hated me for twenty years. We are relatives, Jingxian...... Why are you bothered? ”

"Loved ones?" Concubine Xian sneered mockingly, "Yes! Bengong thought that at least he was still a relative, but Bengong didn't expect that Bengong's own brother would have the intention of rebellion and want to take the throne of his own nephew. ”

"How could Ben Hou have thought that Ben Hou's own sister would kidnap her nephew and daughter-in-law who was pregnant with Liujia to blackmail me?" Jingbei Hou is also cold and colorful.

"Enough, you guys!" A shout suddenly came from behind the curtain, and the Geng family members present all changed their faces. Among them, the two brothers and sisters of Jingbei Hou and Concubine Xian are the most.

The curtain was lifted silently by two palace maids, and both of them, who were already slightly old, were helped out, one was the queen mother, and the other was supposed to know nothing, and the old lady Geng who should have slept in the house at this time.

"Mother, why are you here?" After saluting the Queen Mother, the Marquis of Jingbei and Concubine Xian asked almost in unison.

Lan Xi's eyes flashed darkly, and he glanced at the Queen Mother. I thought to myself, this ginger is really still old and spicy.

"It was the mourning family who specially invited the old lady into the palace. The family affairs between your brothers and sisters, as well as the confused account from more than 20 years ago, should be settled after all. "The Queen Mother deserves it, and she is very happy.

No matter what others thought, Lan Xi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
