Chapter 173: A Thunderbolt Falls from the Sky

Qi Xiaoyun's face turned red quickly at an incredible speed, even the tips of his ears were not spared, he seemed to hear the sound of a thumping heartbeat, and the hand inside the wide sleeve involuntarily grabbed the sleeve, loosened it, clenched it, and repeated it three or four times, and the violent shyness was so good.

He was mentally prepared, and then raised his head slightly, only to realize that his father-in-law was not much better than him. For the first time, Lu's father 'disliked' his daughter's open-mouthedness, which was simply bold. Who is King Xian, that is the emperor's son, can you ask him if a subordinate is called Daddy?

Such a rebellious thing, if the emperor knows about it, it is not a capital crime that can be avoided, and a living crime cannot be escaped, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will destroy the nine clans. Father Lu was almost frightened, and scolded very seriously: "Jin'er, don't be rude!" ”

This matter, even Mother Lu, who has always spoiled her like her life, shook her head disapprovingly, "Jin'er, Hugh has to talk nonsense," she turned to Qi Xiaoyun and smiled slightly, "The sincerity of the prince, the courtiers already know, Jin'er is romantic by nature, and occasionally she will be open-mouthed, and she also asks the prince to have a lot of Haihan." As for the marriage between the prince and Jin'er, the prince can choose the date. ”

Qi Xiaoyun turned his head and looked at Lu Anjin with an aggrieved face, and his heart hurt for a while, not heartbreaking, but very painful. He resisted the urge to hold hands and kiss her to comfort her, and looked at Lu's father and mother with a light smile, and before he could say anything, he pouted baldly, "Madam, since Jin'er is already my princess, you are Jin'er's father and mother, and you are also the king's father and mother." ”

He had never said anything so sensual and so staccato and stumbling. Qi Xiaoyun heard a light laugh, instinctively turned around, and saw the little woman who was still wronged, but at the moment she was smiling like a flower. Seeing that bright smiling face, he suddenly felt that the unspeakable words in the past were really not so difficult to say.

It was he who put an invisible shackle on himself, locked himself in a dark corner, willfully refused any light to enter, like a wounded head that refused to be approached by anyone, licking his wounds alone, refusing to be friendly, rejecting sunlight, rejecting others, and closing himself.

Father Lu looked at Qi Xiaoyun with a faint smile on his face in shock, at this time his heart set off a wave of turbulent waves, he glanced at Mother Lu with worry, saw the other party smiled lightly and shook his head, only then he sighed almost inaudibly, no longer greeted politely, and put on a normal father-in-law's attitude, "You and Jin'er have become relatives, you must be considerate and support each other in the future, court life is easy, you must be careful." ”

Lu Mu continued: "Yun'er, your identity determines that you can't live a peaceful life like an ordinary person, how much ability you have, how much responsibility you have, and it is not easy for your mother to know you." Since you and Jin'er have identified each other and are ready to be together for a lifetime, then when you encounter difficulties, don't carry them by yourself, we are all your family. ”

The faint words contained full of concern, Qi Xiaoyun, who had never felt such warmth, instantly turned red, he felt a little embarrassed, so he lowered his head, and replied seriously with the help of wide sleeves, "Daddy's entrustment, Xiao Yun will definitely remember it." His voice was a little choked, "Thank you for your trust, as a virtuous king, I will definitely do my best to protect the people of Eastern Qi; As Jin'er's husband, I will do my best to protect her. ”

His life has always been cold, and he suddenly received warmth, which made the ice slag all over his body fall off, and a warm feeling poured from head to toe, which was very strange, but made him very happy.

Those who have felt the sunshine will never return to the darkness. But he was happy to accept this change from hell to heaven.

Father Lu sighed, Qi Xiaoyun's situation looked infinitely beautiful, in fact, how difficult it was, he knew best. However, this child is mature, stable and rational, although he is a little indifferent, but he also loves the people very much, and he is not known how many times better than those gentlemen who can only eat, drink and have fun. He slowly stood up, patted Qi Xiaoyun's shoulder, and comforted: "Daddy believes in you, take care of yourself, and protect yourself." ”

Qi Xiaoyun was already holding tears in his eyes, and he couldn't bear this gentle but hot care anymore, he hurriedly lowered his head, pressed his overly lively heartbeat, and replied dumbly, "I know." ”

"Okay, okay," Lu Anjin looked at Qi Xiaoyun's red eyes, distressed, she stepped forward and took his hand with a smile, "Today is a big day, don't say such sensational words, I have tears in my eyes." After that, he pointed to his eyes mischievously and pretended to say, "Don't ask why my eyes are full of tears, it's because I love you so deeply." ”

Lu Mu couldn't help laughing, and echoed with a smile: "It's your sweet mouth." She glared at Father Lu, who had a heavy face, "Jin'er is right, today is a good day, let's not talk about those heavy topics, Yun'er Jin'er, are you hungry?" ”

When Lu Anjin heard this, she immediately nodded wildly like a chicken pecking rice, and she said very exaggeratedly, "Mother, I've been so hungry that my chest is close to my back, let's go, my eyes light up when I hear what I eat now." Daddy, don't be stunned, I hear your stomach singing empty plans. ”

"You kid," Father Lu shook his head helplessly, "It's too skinny." ”

He looked remorseful, he shouldn't have been too indulgent to her in the first place, so that now she has no demeanor like a lady, and she is like a wild monkey all day long, which is really difficult to discipline.

The family had a meal with Hemeimei, and they tacitly agreed that they didn't mention the court again. On the way to eat, Ling Yun suddenly walked in in a hurry, saluted respectfully, and then reported in a hurry: "Lord Wang, my subordinates have something important to report." ”

Lu Anjin knew that it must be a very important matter, otherwise Ling Yun would definitely not report at this time. She smiled and said to Qi Xiaoyun, "Since there is something important, let's go and get busy." ”

Lu's father and Lu's mother also said again and again: "Go, go." Lu Mu also added, "Don't forget to eat after you are busy, you haven't eaten much." ”

When Qi Xiaoyun heard this, he smiled lightly at Lu Mu, "Thank you for your concern." He didn't turn his head, but just asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

Ling Yun reported directly, "There is news from the palace just now, there is a change in the Xilin border, Your Majesty has issued an order, ordering the prince to go and check, and when necessary, extraordinary means can be used." ”

Qi Xiaoyun's expression did not change, but the face of Father Lu next to him changed greatly, and he asked calmly, "Xilin is now in civil strife, does Your Majesty mean to take the opportunity to destroy Xilin?" ”

"That's true," the corners of Lu Anjin's mouth hooked up a sneering arc, "Otherwise, there are so many generals in the court, and he lets so many people eat there for idle dinner, but he just lets Xiao Yun run around." ”

Father Lu's face was not good, and his tone couldn't help but increase by three points, "Jin'er, be cautious!" ”

Lu Anjin shrugged her shoulders indifferently, she said with a smile: "Daddy's lesson is," she made a gesture to lock her mouth, "My daughter will definitely take care of her mouth, but I am not wrong, there are many military generals in the DPRK and China, and Xiao Yun is not the only one, what is Your Majesty's thoughts, everyone understands, what is there to hide." ”

Qi Xiaoyun saw that Father Lu was about to teach Lu Anjin a lesson again, and hurriedly said: "Daddy, don't be angry, what Jin'er said is right, what Your Majesty is thinking, we all understand, it is nothing more than being afraid of the military power in my hands and not wanting me to stay in Beijing." ”

"If you are afraid of the military power in your hands, you should be put under your nose, so that you can be controlled."

"The reason why Your Majesty asked me to go to the border is because the old generals of the DPRK and China can no longer be old and ambushed, and the young ones can only talk on paper, and the only thing he can count on is me. However, he will definitely not let me do whatever I want, and will definitely send an overseer for me. ”

There was another reason why he didn't say that the reason why the emperor hurriedly drove him away was just because he didn't want him to get married so quickly. His father is not big-eyed, although he was forced to give him a marriage, but his heart is still pimple, he is not happy, and naturally he will not let himself be much better.

Father Lu knew that he was telling the truth, and smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to comfort him. In the royal family, there is no flesh and blood affection, and in that magnificent cage, there is only deceit and life and death.

Qi Xiaoyun waved his hand, and Ling Yun retreated quietly. Because of the interlude in the middle, because of the upcoming price, the relaxed and happy atmosphere no longer exists, Lu's father and Lu's mother were preoccupied, and they looked at him and stopped, and Lu Anjin put on a very unhappy face, and almost didn't say it directly.

"Daddy and mother, don't worry, Emperor Xilin has many heirs, and there are many adult heirs, and the balance of power behind him is very fierce with the battle for the throne." He paused, "But the princes in Xilin Jingzhong are just clowns who jump off the beam, and the real threat is Lin Yuwen, the king of Ding." ”

Lu Anjin nodded, "Lin Yuwen has been making frequent moves recently, so there must be some big moves next." ”

"Jin'er," Qi Xiaoyun couldn't help but smile when he looked at the smiling little woman, "When I'm not in Beijing, Lin Yuwen's affairs will be bothered by you." ”

"No problem, it's up to me."

After finishing the meal, Qi Xiaoyun cheekily proposed to take Lu Anjin back to King Xian's Mansion again, Lu's father and Lu's mother wanted to tease him, but seeing his embarrassed appearance, knowing that their separation was imminent, he forgave them for another disobedience.

Father Lu turned his back to them and didn't speak, but he didn't refuse either. Lu Mu drove people away with a smile, "Go, go, it's not early." ”

Qi Xiaoyun knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't pay compensation again and again, and after getting the understanding of the two elders, he took Lu Anjin away non-stop, as if he was afraid that the two elders would suddenly regret it.

"What are you doing in such a hurry? There is no devil behind us! ”

Waiting for the carriage, Qi Xiaoyun immediately hugged the little woman who teased him, buried his head in her neck socket, rubbed around her neck like a big dog, causing Lu Anjin to laugh again and again.

"The sky is clear, and there is a sudden storm," he lamented weakly, "it is a bolt from the blue!" ”
