Chapter One Hundred and One
The hall was bustling with activity, but it was also the bustle of the ministers. Lan Jing, Lan Qiong, and Jin Shen all felt a headache, they had already gathered together to settle private matters, but as a result, so many ministers were here, just delaying them!
The Minister of Rites licked his face and walked in front of Jinshen, said a lot of words to welcome Jinshen, and finally got to the point of inviting Jinshen to the palace. Lan Qiong pinched her brows when she heard this, she was persuaded to leave the palace because of this, and when the minister saw that he didn't say anything, he actually ran forward and said it himself.
I would like to apply that this is a private visit to the microservice, if I go to live in the palace and participate in any reception banquet, won't it all be exposed? What's the meaning of this micro-service! So he played Tai Chi with the Minister of Rites, and you came and went leisurely. I thought that this minister would be able to give up, but who knew that people had no intention of stopping at all.
Jin Shen frowned and glanced at Lan Qiong, as if to say: Where did you promote the official, you are so difficult! He cleared his throat and didn't plan to entangle with others anymore, put up the emperor's shelf and said: "No need, I came to Tengxiao Kingdom only to worship my mother and meet my sister, not for official business, it is too troublesome to go to the palace to live." The official of the Ministry of Rites was dumbfounded, and people were clearly unwilling, he thought that the emperor would be in the same boat as himself, and immediately looked at Lan Qiong with earnest eyes.
Who knows, Lan Qiongli didn't want to pay attention to him, and directly waved his hand and said: "Since I don't want to do it, then there is no need to say more, everyone go down!" After saying that, the three masters got up and ran quickly, not paying any attention to them at all. Only the attendants and officials of the palace were left in the hall, and the attendants were all measured, and as long as the adults did not leave, they would wait quietly on the side. Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, the officials had no choice but to walk away.
I would like to say that I want to visit my mother, and this is true. Although Jin Shen went to Weifu for a private visit after the announcement, he did not forget to ask Zhengda Guangming to take his mother back. When he left, he confessed to Zhong Mou and Zhong Hua to lead the team to send his mother's spiritual position back to Tengxiao Kingdom.
When they sent the spiritual position back, it was Lan Qiong, Lan Jing, and the He family and the Si Kou family who personally greeted them at the city gate. Originally, many ministers wanted to join in the fun, but they were vetoed by the emperor, except for the regent, the He family, and the Si Kou family, who could go to greet the rest of the people! Although it was not allowed, the long road from the city gate to He's house that day was full of people. Lan Qiong can't care about it in this way, just watch it if you want to, after all, it's such a big thing.
Because Si Kouxi was pregnant, everyone didn't let her go at first, and she was unhappy, but no one listened to her, and she was really wronged. Really, what a collision is not a collision, my aunt loved herself so much when she was alive, and now that she is finally back, she can't meet this kind of nonsense!
In the end, Lan Jing overrode the public opinion and took her there, but the premise was that she could only stay in the He Mansion and wait, not go to the city gate. Of course, Xiaoxi knew that she would accept it when she saw it, so she readily agreed, so she obediently agreed. She stood alone in the ancestral hall of the He Mansion, looking at the spiritual positions of many ancestors, she still had to sigh softly The He family is really profound, just looking at the great names of the ancestors, you can know how powerful the He family is.
He Lao walked in the front and entered the ancestral hall with He Shu's spiritual seat. Xiao Xi stood beside Lan Jing and watched the ceremony silently, and when the process was over, she kowtowed three times to He Shu's spiritual position with Lan Jing's support. At this time, no one stopped her anymore, everyone understood their thoughts about He Shu, and naturally they were willing to understand Xiaoxi's heart at this time.
At first, they didn't let it, because they didn't expect that after many years, they would only see He Shu's spiritual position so moved. When they really looked at He Shu's spiritual position, they couldn't help but sigh and miss in their hearts, so they suddenly understood the reason why Xiaoxi had to come, and they also hoped that everyone He Shu cared about could watch her go home.
Lan Jing and his party changed into plain clothes and went to He's house. He Junjing knew that Jin Shen was coming back, so he was not very surprised. He had already sent someone to clean the ancestral hall, and he was waiting for Jinshen to go and worship his mother. Jin Shen didn't mess with the rules, and when he arrived at He Mansion, he didn't rush to worship his mother, but went to say hello to He Lao first.
He Lao was already gray-haired, and when he picked up his little daughter back, he already felt that his life was complete, so He Lao was less common, and more often practiced calligraphy, played chess, and took care of flowers and plants, and rarely cared about outside things. After Jinshen greeted him, he didn't say anything, and urged the people to hurry to the ancestral hall so that they didn't have to stay with him anymore.
It was not easy for Jin Shen and the others to stay for a long time, so they went to the ancestral hall. He looked around the environment of the ancestral hall, looked at his mother's spiritual position and said, "Mother, I think the ancestral hall of the He family is much better than the gloomy imperial tomb, I think you should really want to go home, so I will take the initiative to send you back." Here you can rest in peace. ”
Ge Yan also experienced such a thing for the first time, and with the help of Si Kouxi, he toasted a stick of incense, and then stood aside and didn't know what he should do. It wasn't until Jin Shen pulled her to He Shu's spiritual position that Jin Shen took Ge Yan's hand, looked at Ge Yan beside him with a smile and said, "Mother, this is my future wife, I will bring her to see you today." ”
Ge Yan was inevitably shy when he heard the word wife, but Ge Yan was a girl with a hearty personality after all, so he immediately followed Jin Shen's words and said to He Shu's spiritual position: "Mother, I will take care of Brother Jin Shen for you." Jin Shen didn't expect Geyan to say this to his mother, and he was a little relieved and thanked this girl for her understanding.
When Lan Jing left, he invited He Junjing and He Lao to simply move to the Regent's Mansion to live, and it would be more lively when Xiaoxi gave birth to a child in the future. But He Junjing refused, he knew that Lan Jing was thinking about himself, but he had long been accustomed to this kind of lonely life, and presumably his father would not be willing to move to the Regent's Mansion.
Lan Jing didn't force it, only said that she would come and see more in the future. He Junjing thought that it was enough for Lan Jing to have this heart, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to them. Xiao Xi had actually heard some things about He Junjing, but she still hoped to get the most correct information from Lan Jing's mouth.
So after they got into the carriage, she pulled Lan Jing and asked quietly, "Sixth brother, why is my uncle still alone?" Lan Jing sighed lightly and said: "Actually, I owe it to my uncle, when my mother married into the royal family and became the queen, the He family was in the limelight for a while, and my uncle was dedicated to supporting his sister in the palace, and he didn't care about his own marriage." Later, the queen mother passed away again, leaving me and Lan Qiong behind. My uncle couldn't bear it, worried that we would suffer in the palace, so he simply begged the emperor to be my brother's teacher. My uncle has been taking care of us, and we have wasted our own years. To this day, he is still alone. ”
Si Kouxi felt a little emotional, his uncle had spent most of his life for his sister. Xiao Xi suddenly thought of something, pulled Jin Shen and said, "Then this can be regarded as the He family's queen?" So the glory of the He family's ancestors is over here? Lan Jing nodded with some regret, he had never thought of this. But helplessly, he and Lan Qiong still have a special identity, and this surname can not be changed, maybe the glory of the He family will be inherited by no one in the future.
Xiao Xi saw Lan Jing's regret in her eyes, she stroked the child in her belly, looked at Lan Jing and said tentatively: "Sixth brother, let's wait for the child to be born, how about giving him the surname He?" Lan Jing looked at Si Kouxi in surprise, and that look seemed to poke a hole in Xiao Xi's face. It took a long time for him to speak up, "You don't mind? Xiao Xi shook her head with a smile, leaned on Lan Jing's shoulder and said, "What do I have to mind, it's true that you don't mind!" ”
Lan Jing is so likely to mind, how much he hopes that there will be a successor to the He family's incense, he is the He family, how about letting his child's surname He! He took Si Kouxi into his arms, kissed her forehead, and said softly, "Thank you, Xi'er." ”
The happiest and happiest thing in this life should be to have someone around you who loves and understands yourself!
Sikofu ······
Si Kou Yu arrived in the capital earlier than he thought, and in response to the letter written by the emperor, he did not go to the palace to report on his work, but returned to Si Kou's Mansion first. Si Kou's family couldn't help but sigh when they saw Si Kouyu come back, after all, they hadn't seen each other for half a year. As soon as Si Kouqing came back, the two hugged in the courtyard.
When the servants of Si Kou's family saw that the eldest young master was back, they all ran to the kitchen excitedly to prepare food and drink. Si Kouqing patted his eldest brother on the shoulder and said, "Big brother, you're tired all the way!" Si Kou Yu shook his head, after all, rushing is still a small problem for a person who is used to marching and fighting all year round.
Si Kouyu's temperament on his body has changed when he comes back this time, he is more calm and introverted, and the killing aura between his eyebrows is even more fierce, and he has the feeling that a person who fights on the battlefield should have. Si Kou Zhan is very satisfied with the changes in his eldest son, the border is a place to train people, Xiao Yu can have such changes in about half a year, then after another year and a half, he will definitely be able to replace himself as a general!
After dinner, Si Kouyu asked his father, what was the urgency, so he was in such a hurry to call himself back? Could it be that something is going on in the barracks, or is there a war to be fought in the country, but he hasn't heard of anything about it! As a general, he was suddenly recalled, and he naturally thought in that direction, and he would not think much about other directions.
Si Kouzhan didn't say much, only said: "It's not a big deal, everything is fine in the country." There's something else to talk about, so you can rest first and talk about it tomorrow. Xiao Yu sent his father away without asking too much, but he still didn't give up and grabbed Si Kouqing and Si Kouchen and asked endlessly. They didn't think they could explain it clearly to their eldest brother, so they didn't say it, and asked Si Kou to go back to rest early in the morning and talk about it tomorrow.
Si Kouqing looked at the two younger brothers who left, he now suspected that there was nothing at all, that is, the family was afraid that he would suffer at the border, so he asked Xiaoxi to ask the emperor to summon him back for a few days, if this was the case, then he would go back to the border tomorrow.
Regent's Palace······
Si Kouyu was dragged to the Regent's Mansion early in the morning, and at this time he was even more suspicious that he was recalled, it was his sister who did it, but in fact, there was no big deal at all, that is, his sister didn't want to suffer by himself. He immediately asked his two younger brothers if it was his sister who was playing tricks. Xiao Qing and Xiao Chen looked at the eldest brother who was there to reason by himself like fools, and they both felt that the eldest brother's IQ must be lower than the average level of the Si Kou family.
Xiao Chen looked at his eldest brother and suddenly sighed and said, "Big brother must not be able to go to the Criminal Department to take up his post." Si Kouqing nodded in agreement and said, "With this reasoning ability, I don't know how much trouble I have to cause!" Si Kou Yu rewarded each of the two younger brothers with a big slap, Xiao Chen touched the back of his head aggrievedly and said: "Originally, you don't look at who Si Kou's family is, even if you die at the border, as long as you don't reach the term, the family will not use tricks to get you back!" ”
When Si Kouyu heard it, he thought about it, how could his father be such a selfless person, how could he let his sister do such a thing, it seemed that he was thinking about it. Originally, Si Kouyu planned to apologize to Xiao Chen, but who knew that before he could say it, Si Kouqing gave Xiao Chen another slap, Xiao Chen was suddenly unconvinced, and shouted: "Why are you beating me!" ”
Si Kouqing rubbed his slightly aching palms and said, "Don't talk nonsense, what kind of tiger and wolf den have you said about Si Kou's family, they are all a bunch of ruthless people?" Si Kouchen touched the back of his head and muttered, "It seems that you are not tiger and wolf people!" Si Kouqing heard a knife eye flying over, and Xiao Chen immediately hid in the corner of the carriage with his head in his arms, so as not to suffer a third blow.
Si Kouyu laughed happily on the side, but he didn't expect Xiao Chen to still be so afraid of Xiao Qing, he smiled and said, "Xiao Qing still don't beat him, he is not wrong." Si Kou glanced at the eldest brother lightly and said, "Just now, I was not wrong, but I was still beaten by you." Si Kouyu didn't expect Xiaoqing to say this, so he touched his nose awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
Si Kouqing didn't say anything more, and there was silence in the carriage along the way. Si Kouyu is sometimes afraid to talk to his younger brother, because he will not be able to keep up with his brain circuits, and sometimes he will shoot himself in the foot, such as just now. He and Xiao Chen are both people who don't talk around the bend, and Xiao Qing is the same as Xiao Xi, these two people sometimes like to talk around the bend, and they are afraid of going around the bend. They are no match for them at all.
Xiao Xi saw that his eldest brother had also arrived, and after briefly talking about the old days, he called Jin Shen and planned to tell them everything. What Si Kouyu didn't expect was that Xiao Xi actually called Jin Shendu, what an important thing it was, worthy of the emperor of the Jianian Dynasty to come to Tengxiao Kingdom.
It took Xiao Xi a full two hours to explain everything clearly, and the three people who heard this for the first time were stunned, and the others seemed to anticipate their reaction, because they also reacted when they heard it.
Si Kouxi was really dry-mouthed, she didn't plan to pay attention to the three people who were in a daze, and drank the water poured by Lan Jing comfortably, and by the way, she also disliked that the water was too bland and had no taste. After disgusting, he began to eat the sliced peaches on the plate, and then admired the stunned appearance of the three people. Lan Jing watched the water in his hand being drunk, and said in his heart: This is boiled water, how can it taste! It's too bland!
He didn't plan to worry about the pregnant woman, so he sat obediently and continued to cut the fruit.
Jin Shen took a sip of tea, which was regarded as a suppressive shock, and looked at his calm sister to confirm the authenticity of this matter again and again. After getting Si Kouxi's third confirmation, he still gave up the struggle and obediently accepted the fact that he was the representative of fire.
Si Kouyu frowned and said, "Then next, if we go to the Great Compassion Temple?" Si Kouxi nodded, swallowed the fruit in his mouth and said, "That's right, we plan to leave for the Great Compassion Temple early tomorrow morning, and carefully sort out these things again!" Si Kouyu looked at Si Kouxi, who was still leisurely, and asked worriedly, "Xiaoxi, are you okay?" He felt that Xiaoxi's calmness was all pretending, how did she get through after knowing these things!
But he really thought wrong, Xiao Xi said indifferently: "Things have already happened, there is no way to change it, why worry about it, anyway, there are still four months!" After saying that, she saw that Lan Jing's method of cutting the fruit was not to her liking, and shouted to correct it.
Well, it is true that Si Kouyu is too worried, and his sister is not affected by it at all.
In general, this matter has nothing to do with Ge Yan, but Xiaoxi saw her as a family member and told her about it. As the youngest person here, Ge Yan felt that the secret of this frontier was simply a mythical story. And at this moment, the mythical stories she thinks are happening around her, and her beloved may lose his life because of this, and she can't tell the sourness in her heart.
Jin Shen accidentally noticed Ge Yan's empty eyes, and thought that this girl was frightened, so he hurriedly comforted Ge Yan, and complained to his sister: "You just tell me, what do you say to Ge Yan, look at her scared!" Si Kouxi glanced at Ge Yan, she didn't think that this matter could scare Ge Yan like this. Ge Yan didn't change his face at the beginning, but Mu Xi's terrifying appearance was not much better than this story.
Ge Yan's eyes focused on Jin Shen who was close in front of him, and pulled him to say, "I'm either scared or worried about everyone, and at the same time I'm thinking about whether I can help everyone." Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief gently, caressed Ge Yan's face with affection, and said softly: "Don't worry about me, I'm fine, we will definitely be able to defeat that bloody ······."
Xiao Xi glanced at the two people who were intoxicated with love with disgust, but she understood. After all, she and Lan Jing were like this at the beginning, but now they still don't dislike the husband in front of them who can't even cut the fruit. Thinking about it, he disliked Lan Jing again.
Si Kouyu glanced at the two pairs around him, it seemed that people didn't care about the affairs of the frontier, they were only intoxicated with their own little days, Si Kouyu saw goosebumps, and decisively ran out of the study to find the two younger brothers. In general, the two younger brothers, who are both loners, are more cute.
