“…… When I was as old as Si Huang Si Zheng, every time Concubine Xi came to the mansion, I would make a special trip to wait for her in the main hall. She always brought some gadgets to me and my big brother. If you feel resistant at that time, you will never be able to greet the door like this. Wait a little older......" He looked different, raised his eyes to Jiang Linglong's waiting gaze, and frowned, "After the accident with the concubine, I began to avoid her." ”

"You mean, she has something to do with her mother's accident?" Jiang Linglong confirmed to him in a low voice and hurriedly.

Si Xian shook his head.

"I checked it too, but I didn't find anything. It's just a bit of a coincidence in timing. Maybe it's because I don't want to recognize her in my heart, so it's not necessarily that I've been making awkward things. ”

The reason why Si Xian, a wild official, deserves to deter Gu Han is not only that he does things, but also that he can do whatever he wants. What's more is his sensitivity to personnel. However, this is not an innate talent. Si Qi has already achieved the top in the position of military general. If he follows behind his eldest brother, he will never have a day of transcendence.

Besides, his goal is more than just a general.

His father was the only one he looked upon.

The power is tilted towards the opposition. Cover the sky with one hand. Trick the clouds. Heart-wrenching.

With the power of one person, he reunited the various forces that had been divided after the death of the previous king.

In order to be one step closer to this ability. Si Xiancai took the initiative to take the position of Yelang official.

Now, he's polished himself to be rational enough.

Rationality comes from objectivity.

Objectivity comes from the dissection of oneself.

He clearly knew that he had never treated Zhao Yingxi as a concubine so kindly in his heart. He is not ashamed to admit in front of others the indifference and alienation he has shown to a woman who has cared for him for decades.

So when he analyzed that he might just emotionally reject Zhao Yingxi, Jiang Linglong was taken aback.

Or rather, there is some adoration mixed in with this surprise.

And the feelings of this worship seem to be a little complicated.

She had always thought that Si Xian's kindness was a disguise. It's like a daily pretend, so that people can relax their vigilance, so they can weave nets and catch praying mantises.

But the more she got along, the more she realized that his kind face might be his essence. He gave his purest side to the important people around him. Those so-called uncompromising methods, ruthless and cruel, are the disguises he had to practice.

Otherwise, that day in the prison, how could he look at himself with a sense of relief that he had regained.

"If you don't like someone, there's a reason." Jiang Linglong said lightly and added some tea to his cup.

She, the second brother, can be both a person and a tool. So stoic...... And for what?

She sighed to herself in her heart, and continued her previous sentence on her face, "Forget it, there is too little information, let's not talk about her." ”

"Oh?" Si Xian curled the corners of his mouth, "What, do you still have someone else to say?" ”

"Absolutely." Jiang Linglong looked at him with a kind of look in her eyes, "Can't you think of this?" His eyelashes sank and he raised his eyelashes before he said, "Luo Qizhen, you know what? ”

"Grandfather?" Si Xian's fingertips tapped the edge of the table, don't bend around, "Yes." It's for the brother who didn't make it clear in advance. ”

"Explain what?"

"Our maternal grandfather, Mrs. Luo Qizhen Luo, resigned on the day the first king ascended the throne." Si Xian was a little helpless, but he seemed to have an understanding in his chest, and he was a little stunned when he said it, "After the accident of the concubine, he resigned and traveled alone. We knew in our hearts that he was looking for the whereabouts of his mother alone. I heard that my father had sent someone to protect him secretly, but he was beaten back by the old man. I often saw him when I was a child, but I haven't seen him since he left the capital. At this point, Si Xianyan felt a little nostalgic, "I don't know if he is still alive." ”

"Didn't the guards who came back go any further?" Jiang Linglong calculated, Si Qin is almost sixty, so isn't Luo Qizhen eighty years old? In ancient times, few people could live so long, and her grandfather, whom she had never met, might have been lonely somewhere in Gu Han in the process of looking for a daughter...... There are some blames for how Si Qin didn't persevere, and secretly favored people.

"I can't blame my father." Si Xian heard the meaning of her words, "The people sent out by my father changed more than 20 batches before and after, and they followed for no less than three years, and finally the old man simply broke into the ancestral hall of the mansion and took away the tablet of the concubine, saying that he had nothing to do with the Yuange Wangfu En again." My father gave up, fearing that he would anger his grandfather again and make him sad. ”

“…… Alas. She had a lot to say, a lot of things to ask about the Luo family, but after listening to it, she only sighed again.

It's the same as when she had dinner with Zhao Yingxi last night.

The already widowed meal has no taste.

Jiang Linglong pinched the spoon and stirred it in the porridge bowl, put down the spoon without eating, her eyes fell on the handle of the porcelain spoon, and her eyebrows were dimly reflected, "Mother, her...... It's beautiful. ”

Linguo's Linlang is indeed beautiful. She has a beautiful bone appearance and beautiful demeanor, but she can't cover the poignancy in her heart. Her beauty has never been earth-shattering, like a remnant flower growing in a lonely forest.

But Gu Han's Luo Yiyi is so vivid.

Interact with people in a sincere and honest manner.

Sacrifice for others with affection and sex.

Her beauty goes straight to the hearts of the people and all things.

In that period of time, there was no way to verify it, and I couldn't imagine what happened to her.

“…… If everything starts all over again, you say, will my mother choose to take you to pretend that King Yuanjue is in the house? ”

Jiang Linglong leaned back into her fox skin cushion, although her eyes didn't look at Si Xian, the hand in her sleeve subconsciously grabbed his sleeve.

Si Xian picked up her hand and clasped it quietly in his palm, "Probably ...... Still would. He was also depressed in his heart, but he still smiled softly, "My father often said that our children don't even have half of the tenacity of our mother. It's really not a good deal. ”

Jiang Linglong snorted and laughed.

"A big general, a wild official, it's not out yet-" She looked up with a smile, and before she finished speaking, she saw Si Xian's imperceptible expression, and immediately closed her voice and went to probe quietly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Can you just say what you asked me for?" The spark in Si Xian's eyes was fleeting, and it was habitually hidden, but he added some strength to holding Jiang Linglong's hand weakly.

"Yes, will my mother save the first king from trouble?"

"That's right, what you're asking is, will my mother choose, and how will she choose?" He suppressed his emotions, warmed his voice, and waited patiently for Jiang Linglong to repeat it.

"I'm asking, what if everything starts all over again...... You say......" She was a little nervous, for fear of saying something wrong, saying a word, looking at Si Xian tentatively, "Mother, will she still be." Take you with me, go and pretend to be King Yuanjue, who is in the house? ”

Si Xian gasped, leaned back, and was sitting in the chair.

After a while, he turned his head leisurely, stabilized his breath, and explained to Jiang Linglong, who was full of puzzlement, "Orange Moon has relayed Concubine Xi's words to me last night. But after all, not every detail was detailed. ”

He put Jiang Linglong's hand back on her abdomen, took the blanket and tucked it for her, before he approached and said in a suppressed voice, "That night, the mother concubine asked me to hold Luo'er and hide, and play hide and seek for a while." We hid in the closet. It wasn't until there was no movement outside, Luo'er suddenly cried, I had to go out, and I couldn't find my mother in the whole courtyard, so I hugged the nurse he went to find. My father didn't rush back to the house until noon the next day. I didn't know what was going on at the time, so I didn't associate hide and seek with it. When I grew up, I felt guilty and ashamed to talk about it. ”

Si Xian said as he spoke, a flash of fire appeared in his eyes, "No one knows that the mother concubine took me and Luo'er to the palace of the first king that night. How did she know?! ”
