Chapter 189: Selfishness
"Because the Hou Mansion has a talisman given by the emperor!"
The girl's sweet voice is like a calm stream in the forest, which should make people feel peaceful and peaceful. But the content of her words was like a pebble, falling straight to the hearts of everyone, stirring up ripples, and unable to restore calm.
After a brief shock, Le Shaoyuan's inquiring gaze fell on Le Xi's face.
The age of the flower bones, the delicate and beautiful face has a childish tenderness, but it is like a flower that is about to bloom, with a unique and attractive softness. The big eyes are like the clear sky at the beginning of the day, and the delicate girl is set off with a different kind of agility. Under the inciting eyelashes, the dark eyes hide the calmness and sharpness that do not match the age.
This is still the same Lexi.
But what's the difference?!
Le Shaoyuan's heart froze, and his gaze at Le Xi became more complicated.
This is not the right reaction to the past events of the Hou Mansion!
Le Xi noticed Le Shaoyuan's scrutiny, and smiled generously for him to see.
She intuitively felt that there was something important in the court, and she thought of the secret she had just known, so she couldn't help but come. happened to hear Le Shaoyuan's question, so he said it directly.
Just as Le Shaoyuan was still pondering for Le Xi's abnormal performance, Lu Yu saw the girl in front of him who looked like a new wicker curvaceous figure, and he took it with a slight smile.
"Why did Xiao Xi say that?"
Lu Yu unconsciously said the affectionate title together, Le Xi was a little stunned, and the face of the god sent the ghost envoy was hot.
This person, why haven't I seen him for a few days, he has become bold and out of proportion when he speaks!
His eyes flickered unnaturally a few times, Le Xi shifted his attention, looked at Le Shaoyuan and said: "When I was a child, I was young and naughty, and I always liked to hide everywhere in the house to let the maids find me in a hurry. Once, when I hid behind the shelf bed curtain in this outer study, my grandfather brought guests to the outer study when the maid did not find me. ”
"Grandfather talked to the guest, saying that this is the agreement between the two provinces, and if there is a rebellion in the future, the things that can protect our two provinces will be in the dowry. That is the peace charm left by the first emperor, Bei Gengyuan is in danger, and our two mansions are in danger! ”
Guest?!
Trousseau?!
When Le Xi said this, the three people in the study had already guessed who the guest was, which two mansions were referring to, and whose dowry was the dowry!
And Le Shaoyuan also understood why Le Xi was so abnormal.
She has the memory of the original owner. Therefore, she will ask Le Yu about her childhood, and she will know the past so well.
Le Xi said indifferently, and even when he mentioned the things in the dowry to keep the two mansions safe, his eyes were so calm that he couldn't make a ripple. Lu Yu looked at it, but there was a trace of panic and discomfort in his heart.
Le Xi knew that the marriage between the two mansions was a relationship of interest, so would he mistakenly think that he was only approaching for another purpose. was only close to her for the sake of being a grandson and the future heir of the Protector Mansion, and was once reluctant to withdraw from the marriage.
Lu Yu was silent.
He suddenly didn't want to know what the amulet was that was about to surface.
However, Le Yu didn't know Lu Yu's mixed mood, and said excitedly: "Xi'er's dowry, I remember that my mother had already prepared it and put it in the small warehouse. And there was a box of things in it that my grandfather had specially prepared! ”
Xu is Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, Le Shaoyuan raised his hand and patted Lu Yu's shoulder at this time, with a sense of comfort.
Lu Yu's body stiffened suddenly, and he thanked Le Shaoyuan in understanding.
Le Xi saw the small interaction between the two, and his red lips rose.
Lu Yu's eyes darkened a lot after hearing those words, which meant that he didn't actually care about the so-called talisman. Thinking about it, I also sighed softly in my heart.
There are really a lot of bonds between the two.
Even if Le Yan is reborn and this body is replaced with a soul, in the end, Yu still can't escape the fate of being tied together?
But can her heart accommodate another person?
"Now that we know where it is, we'll find it. Xiaoxi, you told your mother to open a small storeroom, and you secretly searched for it first. Let's go, it's too eye-catching. Le Shaoyuan thought for a moment and said to Le Xi.
Lexi smiled and agreed, saluted the three and left.
The slender back was far away against the light, and Lu Yu looked through the half-hidden window, blurring his vision by the dazzling sunlight. made him feel that Lexi was very far away from him, and what separated him between the two was not this piece of sunshine, but the heart defense that he didn't know how to cross.
Lu Yu's eyes not only dimmed, but even his face was stained with sadness.
Le Shaoyuan sighed silently, this news came with joy and sorrow, did the two of them add new problems? Will Xiao Xi look at him as Lu Yu thinks?
Le Shaoyuan felt that he was between the two of them, and he had a heart that he couldn't finish.
At this time, Xu Da replied, and the letter of the protector was sent back.
After getting permission to enter the house, Xu Da handed over the letterhead to Le Shaoyuan, and then retreated again.
Le Shaoyuan glanced at ten lines, read the content and handed it to Lu Yu casually.
The inference of the protector is exactly the same as what they just said, and the person who recommended him is Chen Haoxuan.
Staring at the name on the paper, Lu Yu lowered his eyes, hiding the uncontrollable emotions that leaked out.
In addition to thinking that he is the most suitable candidate, he also has selfish intentions.
He knew that Le Xi had a different kind of affection for Chen Haoxuan's face, and he also understood that Le Shaoyuan had sent someone to investigate, and he was also interested in that similar face at first. The old man in Le Xi's mouth, Le Shaoyuan is definitely familiar with it.
Although judging from the person Le Shaoyuan withdrew to investigate, Chen Haoxuan was not the person they were looking for, he still cared very much about his existence.
Especially in that real illusion, after he saw the face similar to Chen Haoxuan that was printed in Le Xi's eyes, he didn't want him to appear in front of Le Xi again.
He was afraid that this Chen Haoxuan, who was obviously not an old man, would let Le Xi fall into it!
Therefore, even if Chen Haoxuan will definitely get a reward for going here, and he will rise to prominence in the future, and his power will expand to the point where he may threaten the Protectorate Mansion, he also hopes that he will leave the capital and go to the northwest!
Lexi, he can't let go, otherwise, he will regret it for the rest of his life. This strong possessiveness, as if innate, had already taken root in his soul!
***
Because of the agreed result, Le Shaoyuan handed over the fold of the face saint again.
It wasn't until his father-in-law replied in the afternoon and the emperor summoned him that Le Shaoyuan changed into his official uniform again and hurriedly entered the palace again.
To the disappointment of the Changfang, when Le Xi and Li found the box of dowry left by the old marquis in the small treasury, they found that it was just a box of gems.
The two of them embraced, and entered the large wooden box with red sandalwood carvings two feet deep, which was full of precious stones. I don't see the so-called peace charm that can keep the two mansions.
Lexi looked at a box of colored gemstones, frowned helplessly, and thought hard for a long afternoon.
Even if these things are precious, more precious than gold, the emperor should not have asked the emperor to take these gems when the two governments were in crisis, or hand them over to the emperor to save his life.
This is completely different from what she imagined should be the Danshu Iron Scroll, the Death-free Gold Medal, or the talisman like the Guess Talisman in the past, right?
When Le Xi was at a loss, a maid came to report, and Mrs. Qi Shangshu, Mrs. Wuding Hou and the girls of the two mansions came to visit the patient.
Le Xi was surprised, it was reasonable for the lady and the girl from the two mansions to come, why did they bring male guests. She's still a little girl when she's sick! (To be continued.) )
