One hundred and fifteen chapters
"Forget it, let's not look into that yet. That's the matter of Young Master Lan..."Gu Liang said comfortingly, and kept looking for something along the window. Cheng Nan only found out at this time that there was a note similar to a charm pasted between each window, but his energy and mind were focused on the wooden sword, and he never noticed this detail.
Gu Liang checked all the 'notes' very carefully, and then turned around and asked Cheng Nan, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, Yuwen entrusted you to me before he died, I can't bear this trust in vain, I will help you in the future!" ”。
"Hmm... I want to know, Uncle Wen said that I would hand over the sword to the young master in three years, but he... He's not already... Where do I go to give it to him? It won't be... Burn this wooden sword to ashes, and he can get it, right? Cheng Nan really asked a very practical and important question.
"Huh? Yes... No! Gu Lianggang was a little stunned when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but laugh, "When the time comes, he will come back to find what you want, you just need to give it to him...".
"Young Master, he... Will you come back to me? But he..."Cheng Nan shook a few times unconsciously, it has been almost half a year since Lan Tianxing was buried in the Lan Clan's cemetery, although this news is not accurate, it is still a dark reality after all, and it will more or less affect and disturb the cognition of the Lan clan.
"Scared? Hey... Hey..."Gu Liang laughed twice, "What the hell is a young man, no wonder they all say that you are a fool, you are so fooled...".
Cheng Nan was stunned for a while and then shook his head to explain, "That's not what I mean, I think... I don't believe those rumors, the young master won't have an accident! He is a 'god' and will not be so easily victimized by traitors...".
"Well, that's right!" Gu Liang walked around Cheng Nan's room a few times with his hands behind his back, and finally couldn't help asking, "I said that you are also a young master of the Cheng family, why don't you even have a bottle of wine in this room?" Even if you don't drink it, you still have to keep a few bottles for me, right? ”。
"Huh? Oh..."Cheng Nan was embarrassed to smile with him, "When it dawns, I'll go out to buy you wine!" This day... It's almost bright, too... No, the Lan family can't drink alcohol today! ”。
Gu Liang glared at him fiercely, and muttered in a low voice, "The Lan family's ancestor worship is my business?" If it weren't for the kindness of Lan Zipeng and his son to me, Lao Tzu would have traveled all over the world a long time ago, and he would still be hiding in this dilapidated temple to suffer this crime...".
"After the big day of ancestor worship, how about I ask you to drink enough?" Cheng Nan smiled again and explained, "After all, ancestor worship is a big deal, and you can't be unruly...".
Gu Liang had no choice but to look up at Cheng Nan very seriously, and then said helplessly, "Let me sleep in your bed, what about you... Wherever you go, get out...".
"Oh... Good! Cheng Nan didn't sleep on the bed of the pigeon's nest, he smiled not annoyed at all, "You are asleep, I will finish copying these pages and it will be dawn...".
When Lan Xin was awakened by the thunder, he looked at the torrential rain outside and pondered, if this heavy rain did not stop, even if the ancestor worship ceremony after dawn could be held on time, many rules and etiquette would have to be deleted. The strict and sacred ritual of ancestor worship turned into a nondescript joke.
And he just sat in this position when there was such an unusual accident, for the feudal traditional family, he will directly become a laughing stock in the eyes of some people, he, the impostor Lan Shao, who is not rightly named, is afraid that the situation will be even more embarrassing in the future.
"Alas, Tianxing, you better come back early, I really can't hold it..."Lan Xin sighed secretly, he really felt that he couldn't hold it anymore.
Since he was adopted by Lan Zipeng, he has been a young master in the Lan family for more than forty years, before he was the most powerful son by Lan Zipeng's side, and now he is the most relied on veteran figure by Lan Tianxing's side, he has always been a position under one person.
Although he is only one step away from being the master, Lan Xin still does his job conscientiously and never covets that position, because he knows his ability and situation very well. Even if you wear a dragon robe, you don't look like a prince, so don't think so much about making trouble for yourself.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this reason that Lan Zipeng and Lan Tianxing, father and son, have always regarded him as a close relative, and entrusted the Lan family to him to manage and take care of it, but this kind of reuse is not a beautiful difference for Lan Xin. He felt like he was almost out of breath, and he didn't have the energy to deal with the overcast emergency.
Lan Xiyue came over with a pot of hot tea and knocked on the door, "Dad, can I come in?" ”。
"Hmm..." Lan Xin put on a coat and came over to open the door, he also wanted to find someone to chat with a few words to express the depression in his heart.
"You have a cup of hot tea..."Lan Xiyue handed over a cup of tea, looked at Lan Xin and asked, "Dad, you said that Young Master Tianxing... Is something really wrong? Otherwise, how could he not show up for such a major event as the Lan family's ancestor worship? ”。
"He may..."Lan Xin stopped talking after answering half a sentence while drinking tea, and changed the subject and asked, "It's so late, why don't you sleep?" ”。
Lan Xiyue shook her head with a worried face, and sighed, "This rain... Don't you think it's weird? It's not the rainy season now, besides... If it doesn't stop, what about the ceremony on a cloudy day? ”。
"Let's push it..."Lan Xin also sighed worriedly, "Providence is like this, it's not something we can change." It's cloudy, let's talk about cloudy days...".
"What if... I mean, if someone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make trouble, it will inevitably shake your position in the family, and we have to guard against it! Lan Xiyue said again, "What arrangements do you have, Ji Lang should be on your side, right?" I heard that the Rose King and Master Zhang are out, and they are going out to run errands at this time... Did you tell it? ”。
Lan Xin smiled bitterly and shook his head, he had always had the qualification to look up to Senior Brother Zhang, and the Rose King almost didn't take anyone in his eyes except for obeying Lan Tianxing's words. He didn't dare to provoke these two people at all, let alone order them to go out on errands.
"That's... Did they deliberately leave the Lan family at this time, just to demolish your platform? Lan Xiyue analyzed, "Could it be... Someone trying to replace you? ”。
Lan Xin's gaze stopped on Lan Xiyue's face for a moment, neither affirming nor denying.
He wasn't sure what his daughter was thinking, but there was one thing he looked very indifferent to, that is, Lan Xiyue valued money and power very much, and it was not a good thing for girls to be interested in these things.
"Are you not worried, or did you not expect it?" Lan Xiyue asked again, "If there is an accident at the celebration on a cloudy day, will Ji Lang swear to protect you like he did to Lan Tianxing?" We shouldn't rely on them entirely, we have to have our own solutions! ”。
It makes a lot of sense, and it analyzes the current situation thoroughly. I don't believe in anyone other than herself, not only to guard against the enemy, but also to be more vigilant against the people around her, and it is human nature to take precautions for hidden dangers and prepare early to avoid accidents, and she didn't say anything wrong.
Lan Xin suddenly sighed, and shook his head helplessly, "How nice it would be if you were a boy, you can help me at this time...".
"Is there any difference between a son and a daughter on this issue? I can help you right now! Lan Xiyue smiled, she didn't think there was much insurmountable difference between men and women, as long as she was good enough and capable enough to earn everything, she could become the heroine of the commanding party!
