Chapter 97
After dinner at the Regent's Palace, everyone dispersed. Shu Qian and Si Kouzhan sat in the carriage, Shu Qian kept peeking at Si Kouzhan, because Si Kouzhan never said a word, Shu Qian thought that Si Kouzhan was angry that he didn't tell him everything, but hid it from him for more than 20 years.
Si Kou Zhan naturally noticed Shu Qian's gaze, he was actually not angry, he just kept thinking about what Old Madam He said to him. Shu Qian finally couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere in the carriage, grabbed Si Kouzhan's hand, looked at Si Kouzhan pitifully and said: "Husband, I really didn't mean to hide it from you, but these things belong to the secrets of the frontier, I can't say it casually, and I didn't think those things would happen, but I didn't expect them to happen." I really didn't mean to, don't be angry, okay! When Si Kou Zhan saw that his wife's crystal clear tears were about to burst out of his eyes, he gently hugged Shu Qian into his arms and said gently: "Xiao Shu, in fact, I know everything. β
Shu Qian felt that something was wrong, how did he know, and why did he know why he didn't tell himself that he had been condemned by his conscience for so many years! Only God knows whether Shu Qian has accepted the condemnation of conscience, but Shu Qian's appearance of being happy for more than 20 years does not look like a person who has accepted the condemnation of conscience.
Si Kouzhan told Shu Qian that the night before they got married, Mrs. He and He Junjing had talked to him and told Si Kouzhan the consequences of this incident. Si Kouzhan never doubted his love for Shu Qian, even if he knew what he might face, he still resolutely married Shu Qian. It's just that the stable life of these years and the safe growth of the children have almost made him forget that there is still such a thing. Shu Qian's repetition today reminded him of this incident.
However, Shu Qian's point is not that Si Kouzhan knew about it, but that it is no wonder that Si Kouzhan had so heavy dark circles under his eyes on the day he got married, it should be that he didn't fall asleep all night after listening to what Mrs. He said that night. When Si Kou Zhan heard what Shu Qian said, his face immediately darkened, he admitted that he was not asleep, after all, this matter is not a trivial matter, and it is too bizarre, how can he digest it immediately, and he still falls asleep!
People who suffer from insomnia tonight are destined to be many. Si Kouqing and Si Kouyu couldn't sleep, and both of them wanted to go to the study of the four brothers and sisters to sit down, but the brothers collided, and the two drank in the study for the first time.
Lan Qiong couldn't sleep in the palace alone, wandering around in the huge and secluded palace alone, it was like a lonely ghost. He couldn't stand this feeling, so he left the palace openly and went straight to Yanfu. Now Yan Shu lives in Yan Mansion, he flew to the roof of Yan Shu's room, lifted a piece of rubble, and shouted into the room: "Yan Shu, come out with me to talk, I can't sleep!" Yan Shu noticed movement as early as when Lan Qiong was standing on the roof, but she was waiting quietly, she thought it was some kind of enemy of the rivers and lakes, but she didn't expect it to be this Heavenly King Laozi. Yan Shu got up and got dressed, opened the door and flew to the roof, and sat down next to Lan Qiong.
Yan Shu saw a pot of wine placed next to Lan Qiong, and the pot of wine he handed over in his hand, thinking that it was because he couldn't sleep because of the incident at night, Yan Shu took the wine and said, "What, let me drink with a woman and a big man on a big night?" Lan Qiong picked up another pot of wine, raised his head and took a sip, and let out a satisfied sigh in his mouth, only then did he reply with a smile: "It's okay to accompany me, but it's not okay to accompany others." Yan Shu will sit with me for a while, and when you are tired, you will go back to rest! After speaking, Lan Qiong looked at the stars in the sky and drank slowly.
Yan Shu knew that tonight's incident had indeed given everyone a head start, although everyone didn't say anything, but it was estimated that there were very few people who could fall asleep tonight.
Regent's PalaceΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Si Kouxi lay motionless on the bed for a long time, she kept forcing herself to fall asleep, but her efforts for a long time were useless. So she sighed heavily, and quickly turned over, facing in Lan Jing's direction, staring at Lan Jing with wide eyes in the dark.
Lan Jing naturally couldn't sleep, but he was afraid that he would disturb Xi'er's rest, so he didn't move, but he didn't expect this girl to be brewing for so long and finally couldn't hold on. He closed his eyes and whispered, "Turn over slowly." Si Kouxi listened to Lan Jing's words slowly and leisurely, and felt that someone had finally relieved her boredom, and she thought Lan Jing was asleep at first.
At this moment, she intensified, got into Lan Jing's arms, and traced her hand over Lan Jing's face. Lan Jing had no choice but to hug Xi'er, opened her eyes and said, "What's wrong?" Si Kouxi said softly: "Sixth brother, you can sleep, I heard such shocking news tonight." β
How could he fall asleep, Lan Jing kept thinking about what her mother-in-law said, and she didn't feel sleepy at all. He grabbed Si Kouxi's hand and whispered, "Hurry up and sleep, don't think about it, the more you think about it, the more you can't sleep, you still have a child in your belly." "But is this thing said that if you don't want to, you can't think about it? Si Kouxi couldn't get rid of distracting thoughts at all.
Si Kouxi held Lan Jing's hand, looked into his eyes and said, "Sixth brother, thinking about it this way, I think there seems to be another hidden reason for Lan Xiao's collusion with the Blood Lotus Sect. Lan Jing also looked at the big eyes of the girl in front of him, even in the dark, her eyes still shone like stars, illuminating his heart. He raised his hand slightly, covered the eyes of his boss Kou Xi, and said, "Yes, I will check it out tomorrow." If you can't sleep, talk to me with your eyes closed. You can fall asleep while talking. β
Si Kouxi was in Lan Jing's arms, with his eyes closed, telling about his experience in the early days of founding Bihai Palace. After talking for a long time, Si Kouxi's voice finally became weaker and weaker, and his breathing gradually stabilized. Lan Jing glanced at the person in his arms, and after making sure that she was asleep, he slowly closed his eyes, and finally fell asleep when the sky was dark.
Lan Qiong said that she would sit for a while, but in fact she had been sitting for a long time. Yan Shu didn't go back early, she stayed by the side, and in the end, she couldn't stay up anymore and fell asleep on Lan Qiong's shoulder. Lan Qiong drank the last sip of wine, glanced at Yan Shu, who was already asleep beside him, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he looked at the sky slowly rising sun. He hasn't seen enough of the people around him and this colorful world, so he will definitely not succumb to the so-called frontier secrets, and he believes that he and Sixth Brother will definitely be able to overcome everything.
Lan Qiong gently put the rubble back, picked Yan Shu up by the waist, flew down the eaves and gently pushed the door into Yan Shu's room, and put her on the bed to cover the quilt. He kissed her on the forehead and got up to leave. It's almost time for the early dynasty, and if the old palace people in the palace can't find themselves, they will probably go crazy.
As soon as Lan Qiong left, Yan Shu slowly opened her eyes, the residual warmth on her forehead had not yet dissipated, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face. Although she had drunk all night, she was not in the habit of sleeping during the day, and she was sure that there was a lot to do after today, so she got up.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yan Yi coming from the corridor. Yan Shu closed the door and walked towards Yan Yi, who turned around and walked towards the stone table in the courtyard. Yan Yi looked at Yan Shu who was sitting in front of him and said, "I saw Lan Qiong just leaving. Yan Shu nodded, and she said, "Last night's incident is estimated to have caused no one to sleep, so he came here to drink all night." β
Yan Yi can also understand that he also made people watch, Lan Qiong really just drank and didn't do anything else. He looked at Yan Shu, who was still a little drunk in front of him, and said, "Go take a bath, then come out for breakfast, and we will go to see the princess in the afternoon." Remember to protect yourself in the process of getting along with Lan Qiong. β
Yan Shu smiled and said, "Brother Yan is really becoming more and more like Big Brother!" Yan Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, I am." Alright, let's go! After speaking, he turned his head and left, Yan Shu looked at Yan Yi who was leaving. Thinking about how fast time passes, it is difficult for me to perceive the passage of time, but seeing that Yan Yi has become a good man who stands up to the sky, I realize that I have grown up.
Everyone who rested very late finally fell asleep, so they all woke up at noon. After lunch, everyone met in the study of the Regent's Palace.
Si Kouxi flipped through the forbidden book left by He Junjing in his hand, and the yellowed page had the word secret written on it, and when he opened it, he recorded the catastrophe in the frontier thousands of years ago, and then how the person who stopped the catastrophe combined the strength of everyone to save the frontier, but there was no mention of the fate of those people.
Lan Qiong played with the cup in her hand and said with some hesitation: "You say, my mother and aunt are dead, and that person can still perform that kind of weird secret technique?" Everyone didn't know how to answer this question, it is true that the two important people have left, and without the so-called ghost, this secret technique can still be practiced? Si Kouchen said tentatively, "Could it be that the power that person gets will be greatly reduced?" β
Si Kou Qingzhen wanted to throw the tea cup in front of him on Xiao Chen's head and let him talk nonsense all day long.
Yan Yi looked at Si Kou Xi, who was flipping through the book, and said, "Princess, these things involve the theory of the Divine Mystery Theory, and I have sent someone from the Star Rail Pavilion to check the situation. A thousand years ago, some strange things did happen in the frontier, and it was only since then that the frontier gradually fell out of everyone's sight. Then there was the thing that the emperor couldn't get used to and violated in the end, and the frontier was also gilded with mystery by the world since then. β
Everyone forgot that the Star Rail Pavilion was in this business, and it was most appropriate to ask them about the secrets of a thousand years ago. Before Si Kouxi could ask more, Lan Qiong chased after Yan Yi and asked, "Did you say that something weird happened on the frontier?" β
Yan Yi nodded, but he felt that Lan Qiong's words were dissenting, or that there were some flaws in the record. He explained to everyone: "I and the people of the Star Rail Pavilion all agree that this is not a strange thing, we all think that the so-called earth shaking mountains, beasts going crazy, mountains, rivers and tsunamis are all caused by the natural environment, but the more tragic ones are all gathered in the frontier. But it is strange that one day all these disasters on the frontier will stop in an instant, and it will be peaceful. Maybe there is really a so-called power to turn heaven and earth, and thousands of years ago you can see the power of the gods in many ancient books, but it is rare today. β
I have to admit that it is already surprising that the Star Rail Pavilion can have such a record, and it is estimated that it is difficult to find anything related to it now.
Maybe starting with this part of the frontier, you'll find out more. Lan Jing asked Yinyue beside her to check the information on the frontier.
Since what happened last night, Yinyue has already sent someone to check overnight. He spoke directly about the information he had in mind. Everyone didn't hear a reason, and the Bihai Palace and the Nine-Story Building couldn't find anything, which proved that this place was indeed mysterious. It is said that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, and now I don't know how to defeat my opponent.
Si Kouxi closed the book, let out a "hiss", looked at everyone and said, "There is no mention of the fate of those people in this book, how does my mother know that those people are dead?" Lan Jing had already flipped through the book, and handed it to others, and he agreed with what Xi'er said, and the book did not mention everything that followed.
Si Kouqing remembered what his mother had told him in the morning, which happened to involve the doubts raised by Si Kouxi, so he replied: "Mother said that someone personally witnessed their death back then. Si Kouxi felt even more strange, since he knew that the end was death, the Blood Lotus Sect Leader still had to fight for his own life for the so-called power to destroy the heavens and the earth? Xiao Xi asked Si Kouqing; "Doesn't that person know that if he does this, he will die?"
Si Kouqing shook his head and affirmed, "Mother means that all the people in the frontier don't know that these heroes in their eyes have long since died. The reason why her mother knew the outcome of that incident was also because someone else told her. β
Others? Deler, another person came in, Si Kouxi felt that this "other person", if they could, they must visit it, and he must know something that no one else knows, he must not be simple.
Si Kouxi looked at Si Kouqing, and immediately said, "Mother has told you who that person is, let's go and visit." Of course, the Sikou clean-up nodded, looked around at the crowd, and said, "You all know each other." Think of sorrow, think of benevolence! β
There was a thunderstorm on the flat ground, okay, now all the big people with heads and faces are involved in the secrets of the frontier, even Siren is involved, isn't he just a little broken child! Everyone felt that this trip was inevitable, but Si Kouyu and Mu Jinshen were not here, even if they were going to visit Master Sibei, they would have to wait until all the parties involved had arrived.
Si Kouxi immediately wrote a letter to Mu Jinshen, asking him to finish his affairs as soon as possible, and hurried to Tengxiao Country to discuss important matters. Lan Qiong also immediately wrote an edict to ask Si Kouyu, who was on the border, to come back as soon as possible.
