Chapter Seventy-One: The Orchid and the Fox (1)
Seeing that Luo'er was very different from the past, Ximen Jia couldn't help but take a few more looks, and then replied with a smile: "Didn't I take the task to avenge Deng Zhiyin?" How is it enough to die Helian Luan'er? I didn't get the opportunity to kill Helian Qi last time, so I kept following him, but unfortunately I was preempted by Xiao Qian, but I don't care about this, Helian Qi is dead! β
"Helian Luan'er was killed by you?" Luo'er asked in surprise, and after thinking about it, she felt that there was nothing surprising that Ximen Jia appeared in Baifeng City, originally to assassinate Helian Luan'er.
Ximen Jia nodded proudly: "In the early morning of the day you left, I thought about your departure, and the palace was in chaos, isn't it just right for me to do it!" β
Luo'er looked at him speechlessly, and asked again, "Then do you still have to count Qin Qing?" β
Ximen Jia smiled and didn't answer, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Zhang Yang listened to them talking back and forth, frowned and thought for a while, and asked Luo'er with a serious face: "He wants to kill Qin Qing?" β
As soon as Luo'er nodded, Zhang Yang punched Ximen Jia.
Ximen Jia's figure retreated, Zhang Yang also followed like lightning, the two of them fought one by one and hid and entangled for a while, Ximen Jia accelerated and rushed to Luo'er's side, and hurriedly said: "Your little brother is good, I can't afford to play, go first!" "With that, he is gone.
Zhang Yang angrily chased after Luo'er and asked, "He wants to kill Qin Qing, why don't you stop him?" β
Luo'er glanced at him lightly and said, "Why should I stop him?" β
"He's going to kill Qin Qing!" Zhang Yang glared angrily.
Luo'er looked at him unmoved, and said, "Qin Qing has killed so many innocent women, and others want to seek revenge on her, why should I stop her?" She is only allowed to kill others, and she is not allowed to take revenge? β
Zhang Yang was dumbfounded.
That's right, but I'm always reluctant in my heart.
"Don't worry, the Xiao family will protect her!" Lin Yuan smiled and comforted Zhang Yang.
Don't say that Luo'er doesn't believe it, even Zhang Yang refuses to believe it: "Xiao Qian treated her like that at the wedding banquet, and will he protect her?" β
Lin Yuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Although Xiao Qian hates her for killing Xiao Ying, the wedding banquet also stopped the Xiao family from attacking her!" β
Luo'er nodded, Xiao Mo, this girl seems to have a deep relationship with Xiao Ying, and she can't avenge Xiao Ying immediately, it was Xiao Qian who stopped her at that time, and also classified Qin Qing's matter as the Xiao family's family matter, and it didn't look like she wanted to kill Qin Qing to avenge Xiao Ying.
"What's moreβ" Lin Yuan spoke again, and said with a meaningful smile, "Qin Qing is already pregnant!" β
This was unexpected news.
Now that she has Xiao Qian's flesh and blood, no matter what the Xiao family thinks of Qin Qing, they will always protect her.
My life was saved, but what about the situation?
Qin Qing committed a murder for Helian Qi, and stopped for Xiao Qian, whether she killed or not, it was extremely dangerous for her, but how could she ever be a person who spared her life?
casually looked up and saw Zhang Yang's face stunned.
Luo'er sighed secretly in her heart, and said to Lin Yuan: "Helian Qi's matter, thank you!" β
Lin Yuan smiled: "Between you and me, why do you need to say thank you!" β
Luo'er twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "What did Mr. Lin say?" There is not much friendship between you and me, and I don't thank you, do you want to return the courtesy? β
The smile lines on Lin Yuan's lips deepened, and the pear vortex suddenly appeared: "If Luo'er insists on making a promise, I can only be disrespectful!" β
Luo'er was so shocked that she couldn't speak, is this still Lin Yuan? Why is it so thick-skinned as if you have changed someone?
But no matter how Luo'er glared at him, Lin Yuan was still amiable with a gentle and elegant smile.
"Is your landlord teasing my young master?" Zhang Yang muttered to Mo Qi, so shocked that he couldn't care about the melancholy Qin feelings for Xiao Qian's child.
Mo Qi coughed twice and lowered his head to pull the carriage.
Wei Guo must go, after all, Wang Jiehuan is missing here, even if Yan Hui has already arranged other Eagle Valley disciples here.
Luo'er originally planned to go to Xianhuling to explore again, but after hearing about "Continuing Xiangzhai Lanpu", he took a detour to Huazhou first, and the spies of Changtianlou had already laid out in Xueling County first, as for Xianhuling, it was to be determined first.
Wei is the northernmost country on the mainland, with nine counties under its jurisdiction, and is the country with the widest territory on the mainland. Today's Wei Emperor's name is Wei Tong, the year name is Yuan Hunt, also known as Yuan Hunt Emperor, and the Wei family is the hereditary prince of the northern land in the previous dynasty.
At the end of the previous dynasty, when the world was chased, Wei Tongqiu married the daughter of the Feng family, and the next year he became the emperor, with the assistance of the Feng queen, the Wei people were strong and good at fighting, Wei is undoubtedly the most powerful country today, and the Feng family also regained the status of the descendants through the Wei state.
Huazhou City is located in Taihe County in the south-central part of the Wei Kingdom, and has been a relatively important city in the Central Plains since ancient times, with many famous families, and the Deng family is one of them.
On the way to Huazhou, Lin Yuan roughly told the Deng family's family history as a story with Luo'er.
The Deng clan is a famous family with a history of more than 200 years, and in the Yuan Dynasty, the power of the Deng clan reached its peak.
Although the Shusun clan was the successor, the Shusun clan never held power in the court. As a result, Concubine Deng Guifei, who was only below the queen, led the Deng family to climb to the position under the original dynasty, and had to give birth to the idea of replacing the queen with Longwangshu, which eventually led to the fall of the original dynasty.
After the fall of the original dynasty, Deng Guifei's branch failed to get benefits in the Zhu Dynasty, but was put in prison, and the remaining Deng clansmen simply moved back to their hometown in Huazhou from Qidu, guarding their ancestral property to live, and occasionally the children of the family participated in business, but most of them were still based on farming and reading, until today's seven points, and the Deng family did not have any children.
According to the ancestral teachings of the Deng family, the Huazhou branch is all farming and reading for a living, and the side branches can find another way to make a living.
Deng Zhiyin's brother Deng Nan is only a side branch of the Deng family, the brother and sister have been dead since they were young, and they grew up with the help of the clan, Deng Nan took the road to business at the age of thirteen or fourteen.
With the heritage of the Deng family, Deng Nan is also a little elegant in business, Deng Zhiyin was taught to become a talented girl, and even the maidservants around Deng Zhiyin, such as Zhishu, are also taught like a lady.
Deng Nan's house was newly built after he made his fortune, but compared with the other houses of the Deng family, that is, it is newer and larger, and it does not show a magnificent atmosphere, and it still exudes a square atmosphere of cultivating and reading the family.
The carriage was parked not far from Deng's house, leaving Mo Period, Zhishu and Zhang Yang, only Lin Yuan and Luo'er personally came to the door to post and asked to see Deng Nan.
Although it was a temporary visit, after Lin Yuan handed over the greeting sticker of Changtianlou, the two of them were extraordinary, and they were immediately highly valued by the concierge, and it happened that Deng Nan was at home, Lin Yuan and Luo'er were soon invited into the side hall, and after only waiting for half a cup of tea, Deng Nan appeared.
