Chapter 286
Whether there is anything special or not, now it is just speculation, but since the basement has appeared, it is natural to open it to find out.
Sihan's heart was up and down, and for a while, he didn't say anything.
After a moment of silence, she asked casually: "In my Tanglin Kyoto, is there anyone who is good at solving the mechanism?" ”
Zhan Wenyi shook his head, "I haven't heard of it so far." ”
Is it Ti?
"That being the case, it seems that there is only a hard dig. Command them to go down and send to dig up the chamber. As you said, Lan Yeyu's cautious person can set up a basement in his main house, and presumably the things in that basement are by no means simple. ”
Her speech was calm and distant, indifferent.
Zhan Wenyi nodded, his expression moved slightly, and he didn't say anything more, just hesitated for a moment, wanted to speak and stopped, but never spoke.
Sihan glanced at him and said in a low voice: "If the emperor has something to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
Zhan Wenyi's face was a little embarrassed, his mind floated, and it was really a little difficult to speak. But seeing Sihan once again look at him, he looked at him indifferently, and finally secretly looked at himself, and said in a low voice: "My mother has seen the eldest princess and likes the eldest princess very much. Now that I heard that the eldest princess had returned to the city, she set up a banquet in the mansion, wanting Weichen to invite the eldest princess into the mansion. ”
His tone was calm, although his face was gentle and indifferent, but deep in his heart, there were still a few wisps of waves, and even a little nervous.
He Zhanwen Yi can also be regarded as a person who has opened up the world, and he has never seen anything in the world, but at this moment, he is inexplicably a little nervous and unable to dispel it.
As his mother said, although he is a businessman, he is an elm head in terms of male and female affairs. In the past, although I didn't agree with my mother's words, I just said that I had never met my favorite daughter, so how could I take the initiative to open my mind, but now that I have met and admired it, I still retreated because I had too many concerns.
Xu Yes, after all, he never had the initiative and courage that Lan Yeyu had at the beginning, so he couldn't even win the matter of the eldest princess marrying in the past, and now that the eldest princess has returned, and has completely fallen out with Lan Yeyu, he has spread his wings, and it is time for him to take the initiative.
Sihan's expression was distant, his face sank slightly, and he did not speak immediately.
The old lady of the Zhan family invited her to the Xu Mansion this time, no matter what the reason, I am afraid that it will be inseparable from Zhan Wenyi. Moreover, in the matter of the love scene, she can be regarded as a person from the past, how can she not know that Zhan Wenyi is full of affection, but she has sternly refused in the past, and today, she still refuses as always?
Thoughts are churning, messy and irritable.
When he looked at Zhan Wenyi again, he saw that he was handsome, but there was a bit of tension in his pupils that could not be concealed. ”
The word was short, and Zhan Wenyi was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and when he raised his eyes to look at Sihan, he saw that Sihan had slowly gotten up, turned his head to look at him, and smiled lightly, "It's not early, and the emperor still wants to stay in Fengqi Palace for a while?" ”
Zhan Wenyi reacted suddenly, and his always elegant face showed a half trace of crampedness, and then forcibly pressed his heart, and smiled warmly at Sihan, "I don't stay, it's just that the eldest princess suddenly agreed, and Weichen was too surprised." ”
His words and deeds were extremely peaceful and appropriate, and he looked like a gentleman, but the smile on his face increased a little.
It was indeed not early, and the sky was red and red, as if dusk had arrived.
The palace carriage left straight from the palace gate, swaying all the way towards the Jingzhong Street, and after bypassing the street, the carriage went straight into a slightly spacious long alley, and then stopped steadily in front of the Xu Mansion Gate.
Zhan Wenyi was the first to get out of the car, and then personally reached out to hug Sihan down.
The sharp eyes of the little man at the mansion swept towards Sihan, and one of them suddenly turned his head and shouted, "The eldest princess is here." ”
This voice was really a little high and excited, the joy was not hidden, Sihan's expression moved slightly, and he subconsciously looked towards Zhan Wenyi, but saw Zhan Wenyi's face was cramped, and said helplessly: "The concierge is rude, I hope the eldest princess will forgive me." ”
Sihan said slowly: "This palace came to the Xu Mansion in the past, but I have never seen the Xu Mansion family so excited, but now their reaction is a little strange. ”
Zhan Wenyi frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and explained calmly and gently, "Xu is Weichen's mother has ordered, and the family has been looking forward to the eldest princess coming, and now seeing that the eldest princess is finally here, I can't help it, and I am excited and happy." ”
The corners of Sihan's eyes were slightly raised, and he listened to his explanation casually, and he didn't believe it too much, and he didn't even have the intention of picking anything more, he just hung his head down, dealt with it lightly, and then stepped into the mansion with Zhan Wenyi.
Not far from the forcible journey, the graceful but kind old lady of the Xu Mansion was suddenly surrounded by the maids, and her slightly cloudy eyes were suddenly clear after Sihan, and her face was smiling.
"The old body greets the eldest princess."
Sihan subconsciously stopped, and the old lady walked over quickly to stand in front of her, and immediately bent down to worship, while Sihan hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug her, and said slowly: "The old lady doesn't have to be polite." ”
The old woman straightened up with Sihan's support, but grabbed Sihan's hand, wrapped her hand in her palm, and said with concern: "Why are the eldest princess's hands so cold, isn't it cold this time?" ”
As he spoke, his eyes glared at Zhan Wenyi, "Ru Yi, how did you take care of the eldest princess!" ”
Zhan Wenyi smiled helplessly, raised his eyes and glanced at Sihan's thin dress, and said slowly: "It's true that the child didn't think it through." ”
As soon as his voice fell, his eyes looked at the servant on the side, "Go to the silk village quickly and get a few plain brocade dresses." ”
The servant replied and hurriedly turned and left.
Sihan's expression was distant, and he looked back at Zhan Wenyi, "The emperor is polite, the palace is ......" Before the words fell, the old woman interrupted in a kind and enthusiastic voice, "The eldest princess should not take care of him, the child was stupid when he was a child, and then he was stupid to read and read when he was young, and then he was stupid to do business and business, and now he has entered the court, he should be considerate and loyal to the monarch, and the eldest princess is now so cold in her hands and wears so little, she should make him nervous and considerate." ”
Sihan's words subconsciously choked in her throat, and the old woman did not delay, leading her towards the main house.
At this time, the table in the main room was already full of dishes, which seemed to have been carefully arranged, and the dishes were extremely exquisite, and even slightly steaming.
When Sihan sat down at the round table, the old woman reached out and warmly clothed the vegetables in her bowl, Sihan was about to refuse, but she saw that the old woman's hand holding chopsticks was full of wrinkles, and for a while, her heart was slightly soft, and she choked again when she reached her mouth.
During the whole meal, Sihan didn't eat much, but the old woman often added vegetables to her bowl, and sometimes chatted with her warmly, and the whole dining atmosphere was undoubtedly joyful and relaxing.
After the meal was finished, the old woman couldn't help coughing, and the maids around her suddenly looked nervous, and one of them hurriedly took out a pill for the old woman to take, and when the cough stopped for a while, the old woman smiled at Sihan a little helplessly, "People, when you are old, your body is not tough, and if your body is slightly infected with wind and cold, it seems that you have a serious illness, and it will not be completely better for a long time." ”
Sihan said slowly: "What if the palace sent the imperial doctor over to diagnose and treat the old lady?" ”
The old woman smiled and said: "It's okay, the eldest princess is kind, how can the old body not admit this, so, thank you to the eldest princess." ”
As she spoke, she seemed to be coughing again, her face tightened, her brows furrowed, but she held back stiffly, and then hurriedly said to Sihan: "It's night now, and the old body goes to bed early every night, and when the dozing comes, I won't accompany the eldest princess." Today, the old body is very happy, and I hope that the eldest princess will come to Xu Mansion more in the future to walk around, just to see the old body, and the old body is also very happy. ”
Sihan nodded.
The old woman did not delay any longer, and was immediately helped away by the servants, and as soon as she stepped out of the house, she coughed violently again, and her hoarse and ferocious coughing sound was very abrupt and harsh, but her voice was hoarse, but it was like the end of the wind and candles, giving people a very sad and distant feeling.
When the old woman and her party walked away, the coughing gradually disappeared in the distance, and soon, the surrounding atmosphere finally returned to silence.
The candles in the hall, the lights and shadows, the red flames swaying in all directions, but it is the only active thing in this quiet and quiet hall.
"Since I was unwell some time ago, Weichen's mother has never been so happy as she is today." At this moment, Zhan Wenyi said in a low voice, distant and melancholy, "The eldest princess can come here today, and Weichen is very grateful." ”
"These days, the emperor has served the country, and he is extremely dedicated to Tanglin, and now the old lady invites the palace to come over for a talk, the palace should come over anyway, yes, the emperor doesn't have to be grateful for anything, it's just that the old lady's body seems to be really inappropriate, and the emperor can make a special trip to ask someone to check the pulse of the old lady?"
Sihan came back to his senses and looked up at him.
Zhan Wenyi nodded, "I have taken the pulse, but Wei Chen's mother and son are weak, coupled with old age and decrepitude, this illness is undoubtedly extremely dangerous......"
As soon as the words arrived, there was a sudden pause.
He rolled his eyes slightly, stared at the flickering candle flames not far away, was silent for a moment, and continued: "I don't know if my mother can survive this year's cold winter if she kisses her." ”
Sihan's pupils shrank, his heart tightened, and for a while, he didn't speak.
Such a kind old man, with a peaceful smile, will undoubtedly be infectious, if he really leaves, not to mention how sad Zhan Wenyi will be, as far as her Yan Sihan is concerned, she will also feel sick and sigh melancholy.
It's just that birth, old age, sickness and death are also human nature, and fate is like this, and it is impossible to disobey.
Si Hanwu sat by himself, his mind was surging, and after being silent for a long time, he said in a low voice: "The emperor should not worry too much, when he returns to the palace, the palace will send a few imperial doctors to guard the old lady. ”
Zhan Wenyi smiled coldly and nodded.
Sihan glanced at him, a little unbearable to look at it again, just raised his eyes and swept the sky outside the window, and the words changed slightly, "It's not early in the night, and the palace will go back to the palace." The old lady is here, the palace is free, and she will often come to see it. ”
Zhan Wenyi came back to his senses at this time, and his eyes were quietly fixed on Sihan, "Weichen will send you." ”
As soon as his voice fell, he got up without waiting for Sihan to react.
Sihan frowned slightly, weighed it, and did not refuse, and when he followed Zhan Wenyi out of the house, a servant sent a dress. Zhan Wenyi stopped slightly, personally reached out and draped the dress on her, and waited until everything was done before continuing to move forward with Sihan.
The night was cold, and the oncoming wind was inexplicably cold.
The sky was as black as ink, deep and groundless, and in the gloom, it seemed like an abyss, trying to suck people in, or even fall.
After getting into the carriage, Zhan Wenyi sat next to Sihan again, and the two of them were silent, and they did not speak with a slight tacit understanding.
After staying for a short distance, in a low and depressing atmosphere, Zhan Wenyi suddenly whispered: "Since the eldest princess returned to the palace, Weichen has not dared to ask more. But now, Weichen wants to know that at the beginning of the Great Zhou Qujiang River, the regent betrayed the eldest princess and the princess of Dongling, who was a thief...... In love? ”
His voice was extremely low, his tone was slightly tight, although he knew that he shouldn't ask more, but at this time, he couldn't help but ask.
There are some things, if you don't fight for them, maybe you will always regret them. But if you fight for it, if you still fail, although you feel lost and painful, you can finally make yourself feel at ease and not regret it too much.
Besides, I missed it once in the past, and now I shouldn't miss it again anyway. In the troubled times, everyone is up and down, pitifully small, and the floating life will only take decades, so why not work hard to pursue what you want?
Isn't that the regent of the past? Ben is also a cold-bellied and black-bellied person, but he can greet her so vastly, laughing and ridiculing in front of her, if he hadn't broken the usual handsome and elegant, with a cheeky face to meet her, how could he win her heart?
"The things of the past, why should the emperor mention them again."
Sihan was silent for a moment, and finally spoke in a low and hoarse voice.
I thought that time could kill everything, but now that I hear this, I still have some pain and turmoil in my heart.
What does it mean to be in love? That Lan Yeyu abandoned her and took her to her, and he didn't necessarily love that Situ Lingyan. Or perhaps, people like Lan Yeyu are cold-blooded and ruthless, and when they interact with women, they just have a purpose, or they play with them at will.
That kind of person, how can he have a heart, and how can he have affection! Although I also knew this, I had been resisting and guarding against him since I first saw him, but I didn't expect that I would lose my heart when I was on guard.
Scold.
There are ups and downs in the heart, and the complexities and self-deprecation are wantonly spreading in the bottom of the heart, and the strong emotions are raised, like a bright white blade, wanting to rip off the broken heart little by little.
She couldn't help but tense and froze.
After a moment, Zhan Wenyi's gentle voice rose again, "Although the past can not be mentioned, but the regent turned his back on the eldest princess, and even was with the princess of the enemy country, just because of these, the regent is no longer worthy of being my Donglin regent, let alone my Dongling horse." ”
As he spoke, he hesitated, and his voice became deeper and deeper, "Yes, Weichen has the courage to ask the eldest princess to issue an order to abolish the official position of the regent, and then abolish the eldest princess's concubine...... Title. ”
Although this is not close to people, but I don't mention it now, and it will continue to drag on in the future.
Sometimes it's not a bad thing to cut through the mess quickly, and besides, Lan Yeyu really doesn't deserve these two titles.
Sihan's expression was silent, his pupils were cold, and he didn't speak.
Her heart was surging, although she knew that Zhan Wenyi's words were not all unreasonable, but deep in her heart, there was still a cold needle thorn in the end, making it difficult for her to get close, and she was reluctant to choose anything.
The atmosphere in the car fell silent again, silent, cold and depressing.
Zhan Wenyi waited for a while, and saw that Sihan had not spoken, and a little melancholy and nervousness increased in his heart.
"The eldest princess really likes the regent?" He forced his mind and asked in a low voice.
Is it because I like it that I am so uncertain about the punishment of the regent?
Sihan finally came back to his senses in response, and said noisily and distantly: "What if you like it, what if you don't like it." Now that Lan Yeyu is the emperor of the Great Zhou, he has the heart to compete for the world, just about these, no matter what, this palace and him are people on the two paths, and there will never be overlap and interweaving again. ”
Zhan Wenyi frowned, and his heart suddenly became a little tighter and sad.
Although she said this calmly and distantly, she was not seriously replying to his words. Even from the helpless and distant tone in her mouth, it can be heard that she is not indecisive, but sad and sad, controlled by fate and identity, and it is only because she can say such powerless words.
"The eldest princess likes the regent, right?" The more he thought about it, his heart suddenly became messy, and he couldn't help but ask the bottom again.
Sihan lowered his head, and he also knew Zhanwenyi's intentions. It's just that there are some things that she doesn't want to hide from him, but she wants to hide them, and she can't hide them sooner or later.
"If one person can face you day and night, can help you in all your dangers, and can fight for your life for your safety, will you still be indifferent to that person?"
She didn't answer the rhetorical question, and her tone was low.
Zhan Wenyi was silent for a moment, and replied solemnly: "No." ”
Sihan sneered and smiled, "The heart of this palace is just like your answer." In Lan Yeyu's endless thoughtfulness, Bengong really likes him, but unfortunately, this sudden liking didn't last long, Lan Yeyu, it finally hurt Bengong's heart, and now, Bengong has long been riddled with holes, and in this life, Xu is unable to be emotional. ”
sighed and laughed at himself, although he was stating the facts, he naturally made a special trip to Zhan Wenyi.
She is full of brokenness, and she has long been unable to withstand any affection, nor can she withstand any love. Zhan Wenyi put his heart on her, which is a waste.
However, this is the case, Zhan Wenyi did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and after being silent for a long time, he said very seriously: "In the past, the prince of Tanglin and the eldest princess turned against each other, and the eldest princess also broke off her love and did not believe in love, but later, the eldest princess still fell in love with the regent. It is based on Weichen that there is a lesson from the past, if Weichen can work hard and be considerate of you, the broken heart of the eldest princess will gradually be repaired, so that she will like Weichen again. Wechen is not afraid of trouble, nor is he afraid of waiting, Wechen is wholeheartedly devoted to the eldest princess, yes, and wait for the day when the eldest princess admires Wechen. ”
