Chapter 117: The Lottery
"The Holy One sighed? So what do you think you should do? Father-in-law Desheng's eyes widened, and he said with a sly smile.
"I just don't know, that's why I asked my father-in-law for advice." Ke Ran scratched his ears with a smile.
Father-in-law Desheng looked Ke Ran up and down: "Father-in-law Ke is really motivated." ”
"Where, the little one knows that Father-in-law Desheng has always served the saint and won the favor of the saint. The little one never thought of flying Huang Tengda, just hoping to be able to live in this harem in peace and keep the head on his neck. Ke Ran hurriedly expressed his attitude, lest his father-in-law Desheng think that he wanted to compete for favor.
Father-in-law Desheng listened to his sincerity, but he didn't believe it very much, but he didn't reject people thousands of miles away. After all, this father-in-law Ke Ran was ordered by the saint to let him follow him, if the rules are not taught well, there will be some forks in the future, and he will not be able to eat and walk around.
Thinking like this, he smiled: "As long as the Holy Lord doesn't give orders, don't rush to be scolded, hide, don't be smart casually." Although the saint does not like stupid people, he also does not like people who speculate on his thoughts. ”
"Oh——!" Ke Ran nodded again and again, taking it seriously to heart. At the same time, I thought: This has to be clear and pretending to be confused, and it must not be too confused, tsk, this royal front is really not easy to do.
However, it is rare that Desheng's father-in-law is willing to tell him this, and he is happy in his heart and does not carry Desheng's father-in-law, I wish Desheng's father-in-law would understand and trust him more.

Trust is a difficult thing to establish, and even the seemingly solid bond of blood ties is actually extremely fragile in many cases, especially in the face of huge interests.
At this time, a heated discussion was being held in Yan Xiangguo's Prime Minister's Mansion, with only one purpose, to elect a family to adopt Leng Yi Yanyan.
"Since it is the Empress Dowager's decree, it is obvious that she wants to give that girl a wealth and wealth, a group of us, it is appropriate to adopt a rich or prosperous country." A man with a goatee stroked his beard and smiled.
"The old man is too old to ask about these things again. Besides, at my age, adopting a teenage daughter of Xiaogong, this ...... It's not quite a good fit. Look at the noisy children and grandchildren in my family, I have a headache. ”
Yan Xiangguo refused this proposal without hesitation, he was well-informed, he knew that this cold girl was a troublesome master, and now it is said that she is about to die, and there is no reason for him to get a half-dead palace daughter to be his daughter! When I turned around and died at home, I didn't get the benefits, but I had to help with the aftermath, which was a big loss!
In fact, everyone already knows about Leng Yi Yan's poor health, so no one wants to bring such a troublesome person back to their home.
Everyone pushed and shoved, but no one refused to take this hot potato.
"Otherwise, since everyone can't make up their minds, the old man will do the verification, and everyone will draw lots to decide. If you get someone with a red head stick, go and adopt Miss Leng. Yan Xiangguo took himself out with a word, and then waved his hand to bring the sticker.
Obviously, the old fox had prepared these things early in the morning, and the exposed part of the stick in the stick looked exactly the same, and no one could see what the other end of the stick was.
Although everyone was reluctant, there was really no other way, after all, the Empress Dowager's decree must be completed.
The little guy took the stick holder around and drew a bamboo stick in each hand.
"Let's show off all the bamboo sticks." Yan Xiangguo commanded.
As they said, everyone stretched out their bamboo sticks and stretched their necks to look at each other.
An old man fifty miles away shook his head and raised the bamboo stick in his hand: "It seems that I have to do this." ”
"Alas, Shihai, look, this is really God's eyes." Yan Xiangguo said with a smile.
"That's it, the heavens see that you have no children under your knees now, and send a girl to you, so that you won't be lonely, isn't it?"
Yan Shihai stood up with a wry smile and saluted in a circle: "Yes, thank you Xiangguo, thank you, thank you Empress Dowager." ”
