The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 50
After a pause, He Lanqin continued: "In these years, I have won half of the country for the Celestial Dynasty. Xiahou is only stationed on one side, but in terms of title, he is the same as me. He is also a pawn arranged by His Majesty to guard against me. Xiahou is You'er's uncle. You and Pei Ruochen's marriage is probably a way to support Xiahou. Both Pei Ruochen and Xiahou are loyal to His Majesty, and they are the best candidates to guard against me."

"He guards you, why are you so willing to be ordered by him?" He Lanxue asked lightly.

"He is an emperor, and as an emperor, he naturally has a lot to do." He Lanqin said disapprovingly: "Although I don't agree with many of His Majesty's actions, I am a soldier. Once I identify a person, I will carry out all his orders. .If soldiers learn to think, the country will be in turmoil."

"So I'm doomed not to be a soldier." He Lanxue said: "For me, if I can't be a decision-maker, I'll stay outside of power and be a hermit."

"Axue, you have always been a proud and arrogant person." He Lanqin smiled slightly: "If you and Your Majesty were born in different eras, you would both be outstanding people. Why did you have to be born in the same dynasty?"

"So what, I've already retired."

"Did you really retreat?" He Lanqin's eyes suddenly became aggressive: "If you really retreat, why hasn't Tianyi Pavilion been disbanded? Why did Yi Jian and his group of dead men set up so many strongholds in Saibei? Why did Mr. Feng still obey orders? to you?"

"That's just self-protection." He Lanxue didn't refute at all, with a calm expression: "If you want to become a real hermit, you don't have to withdraw from the world of mortals and stand aloof from the world. I must have enough strength to keep myself away from the abuse of power , Will not allow mermaids. Is it the king's land in the whole world, and the king's subjects on the shore of the land. The real hermit is not giving up, but transcending, surpassing the highest power in the world."

"I have been keeping a low profile for five years, but in the end, he only needs to find out some old accounts, and he can drive me away and exile me. People are just ants in front of the imperial power. I have always refused to give up my power, but I just don't want to be like him." It's just an ant in your hand." After a pause, He Lanxue asked: "Second brother, you came here this time, and you also got his order to arrest me? What is the crime this time? Kidnapping the mother of the country? If it is this crime, I admit it , but I will not subdue the law. You tell him, I will take Rong Xiu far away, in this life, as long as he doesn't come to harass us, he will be forever!"

"Axue, I didn't participate in this matter. After all, Your Majesty can't bear to fight against our brothers. After all, I don't know what will happen. This time I went to Suiyuan only for Yanhan, not for you." He Lanqin shook his head and said: "In any case, I hope you can take good care of yourself. You are my third brother and he is my elder brother. I don't want any accidents to happen to any of you."

"I also don't hope that there will be a day when you can choose." He Lanxue's expression softened a little, and the look of wariness that had appeared just now finally disappeared.

"By the way, where's Yiren?" He Lanqin was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and asked casually, "You take Rongxiu away, what should Yiren do?"

He Lanxue was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that He Lanqin, who was busy with every day, would be so interested in one of his most unknown concubines.

"Didn't she also come to Suiyuan?" He Lanqin continued on his own: "Pei Ruochen sent someone to look for her, and later learned that she found you. Aren't you together?"

"We have been together for the past month. But she is not here now." After a long time, He Lanxue finally answered.

"Then where is she?" He Lanqin asked in surprise.

"She..." He Lanxue was slightly embarrassed, and then whispered: "Maybe she's gone."

"gone?"

"Yi Ren should know that I want to take Rongxiu away. She won't show up at this time to embarrass me." He Lanxue almost didn't think about it, and said, "Yi Ren has always understood..."

Before the words fell, He Lanxue's heart trembled slightly, as if there was something deeply hidden, because the words without thinking were wiped clean and radiant.

Yi Ren has always understood.

Know what he wants, what he says and does, and when and where to leave or stay.

There are so many intelligent and lovely people around, why in the end, only Yiren understands him?
However, is it because she does everything so carelessly and without any complaints?That's why he can, every time as a matter of course, abandon her?
He Lanxue fell silent suddenly, her heart throbbing became more and more intense, and she felt like she couldn't breathe.

He Lanqin didn't notice He Lanxue's unusual behavior, but said to himself: "Where can Yiren go? The Yi family has already severed ties with her, and she has no other relatives or friends—it's a mess here, if something bad happens, how can you feel sorry for her?" The kindness of people standing up for you?"

"I will send Yi Jian to look for her." He Lanxue suppressed her emotions and said softly, "Don't worry, I will not let her down."

"That's your family business, I have no right to comment on it." He Lanqin waved his hand and said casually: "Axue, I just want to advise you that in this world, there are not many people who are wholeheartedly thinking about themselves. Cherish what is in front of you. Don't Do things that make loved ones hurt and enemies happy."

"I know, Second Brother, take care too." He Lanxue's eyes were soft, and for the first time, she told him like a brother.

He Lanqin reached out and pressed He Lanxue's shoulder, sighed almost inaudibly, and then walked away.

On the other side, Yan Han who had already hid in the tree with Yiren, rubbed his chin, said with a smile to himself: "He Lanqin's name has been heard too many times, this is the first time I see this deity, I didn't expect to be so handsome So handsome."

He Lanqin's appearance is very similar to He Lanxue's, although he is not as gorgeous as He Lanxue, but he can be called handsome.

Yi Ren tilted his head to look at the eager man next to him, and smiled slightly, but said nothing.

"It's a pity that I'm leaving now that he's here, otherwise, it would be nice to have some fun with him." After a while, Yan Han added regretfully.

Yi Ren still ignored him, just looked at He Lanxue in the courtyard without blinking, watched him turn around, and re-enter the room.

She saw the clarity in his eyes.

At that moment, she almost thought she was doing too much.

Does Ashe really know nothing?Could he really not notice Rongxiu's hesitation?

Perhaps the touch between lovers is finer and more sensitive than that of any wise observer.

Many times, they know one thing.Not believing it is another matter.

"Let's go, let's go to the roof." Before Yi Ren could think about it, Yan Han had already put his arms around her waist, and his body spread out like a roc, but his voice was as quiet as the night wind, quietly falling on the place where she once lived for a month and was busy. But a relaxing place.

The roof is not high, but the view is very good.

They squatted on it, just in time to see the guards who had been ordered to go around the back of the house.

The guard crossed his hands and made a strange gesture.

Yan Han smiled and said: "Looks like nothing will happen tonight, why don't we go back to the inn to rest for a while."

"what happened?"

"They are all asleep." Yan Han stretched out his hand to uncover a piece of brick and tile under his feet, and through the night, the scene in the room was revealed dimly. He motioned to Yi Ren to look inside, and Yi Ren opened his eyes wide. After watching for a long time, finally Take a good look inside.

Rongxiu seems to have fallen asleep, turned sideways, sleeping deeply,

He Lanxue was lying behind Rongxiu, with his arms around her, and gently wrapped around her waist, protecting her with an extremely protective posture.

Their posture is very leisurely, the night is quiet.

Rongxiu's breathing was even and peaceful.

Although He Lanxue didn't move, she didn't know if she fell asleep or not.

His head was slightly lowered, resting on the back of Rongxiu's neck, unable to see his face clearly.

Yi Ren saw his fingers moving, so she knew that he was not asleep yet.

When he was thinking, his fingers liked to tap unconsciously.

——As for when she noticed it, because it was so natural and unintentional, Yi Ren couldn't remember clearly.

Anyway, I know.

"Let's go back." Yi Ren raised his head and said something, then stood up clapping his hands, and walked away.

"Hey" Yanhan couldn't laugh or cry, he quickly stretched out his hand to pull it: "This is the roof."

It's a pity that his speed was still a step slower, Yi Ren's foot was tilted, and he had already slid down.

Yan Han's voice came out, and he leaned forward, barely pulling her into his arms before she fell completely.

Looking again, the person in her arms lowered her head, her crowed hair was a little disheveled by the wind, and her long eyelashes drooped slightly, covering her glazed eyes.

"Why, do you still feel uncomfortable seeing him with other women?" Yan Han asked with a smile, his tone was not serious, but his attitude was very serious.

He wants to know the answer.

"No, I'm just sad." Yi Ren shook her head, still pressing her head, and said in a low voice: "Axue really likes her. He knew it, but he was still willing to be cheated by her. He likes her so much, why is she still How about sorry for him?"

In Yiren's morality, people can be unkind, but at least they should be grateful.

If a person treats you extremely well, how can you, how can you, be cruel to him?
She felt sorry for He Lanxue, and she could even perceive the pain he would encounter in advance, so sad that her heart twitched.

Yan Han didn't interrupt, just looked at her quietly.

Night, so quiet, so beautiful.

"He Lanxue is really blind to let you go." After the wind blew, Yan Han touched her cheek and sighed, but the voice quickly mixed with the wind and dissipated.

That night, they returned to the inn, and only a few people were left guarding outside the house.

Yi Ren lived alone in a room, and for the first time, she did not fall asleep.

Instead, lie on the bed, blink your eyes, and think of nothing until dawn.

In another room, Yan Han sat opposite to the old man.

In front of them, there is a large sand table.

"He Lanqin is here for the king this time, so it might be a little difficult for us to withdraw from the Celestial Dynasty. I didn't expect that the girl Yi Ren wanted us to hold hostage. It's the Queen Rongxiu of the Celestial Dynasty. Why don't we just plan..." the voice of the old man Lower and lower, finally, almost into a whisper.

Yan Han had a serious face and listened carefully.
