Chapter 365 Cause and Effect of this life, injustice in the previous life
Leng Chengqi said what he should say. Seeing that both Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang were thoughtful, he knew that it must be a hindrance to stay here. The three of them are in trouble together. For Leng Chengqi, although Zeng Yanliang and Leng Xuanrong have not yet been married, they have long ignored the ordinary etiquette. After several lives and deaths, Zeng Yanliang tried his best to protect their father and daughter. Anyone can see this intention clearly. Although Leng Chengqi was a literati, he was not pedantic. He smiled and took care of Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang, and then got up and called the Shouju Shouyan brothers and sisters outside the door and left.
The whole Leng family's house is still deserted. After they left, there were only Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang left.
The candlelight shakes. If it is normal, it is absolutely impossible for a man and a woman to sit against each other so late at night. However, after going through so many hardships together, Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang had a deep tacit understanding. They rely on each other and help each other. Even if they have something to do now, the distance between their hearts has not increased at all.
Zeng Yanliang looked up at Leng Xuanrong and saw that she was surprisingly calm and knew what she was going to say to herself. Zeng Yanliang was a little scared, but as a man, he must not let himself waver. Zeng Yanliang stabilized his mind, opened his mouth slowly, and said first, "Although the prince's method is not a good way, this is the only way. Xuanrong, I will do my best to protect you and my uncle.
Leng Xuanrong raised her head with a little guilt in her eyes, "My father didn't want us to live a hard life again, so he wronged Yan Liang."
The way Du Yilin came up with is certainly to make Zeng Yanliang safe, but in the final analysis, he did it for himself for the emperor. Even he tried his best to persuade his father Leng Chengqi to come up as prime minister at this dangerous time, all for their royal consideration. Now that there are many factions in the court, Du Yilin naturally wants to find a clean person to sit in a high position. Although Leng Chengqi was talented and virtuous in his early years, he was only a four-grade waiter. He was once deeply involved in a case and abandoned the official and fled. Generally speaking, how can such a person be the prime minister? But Du Yilin and the emperor's calculations are excellent. As long as there are people who do not belong to any faction to take office, then this person will undoubtedly become the emperor's confidant. No matter what kind of danger he is in, the emperor can rest assured. At the same time, he can occupy this high position and free his hands to straighten up the imperial court a little. If Leng Chengqi does well in the future, the emperor will naturally not abandon this grateful confidant. If he does not do well, the emperor can find an excuse to replace him casually. Leng Chengqi was born in Enke, and he has no power and power behind him. He is simply the best chess piece to take this move.
Leng Xuanrong knew that even her little girl knew these things, and Leng Chengqi herself was extremely clear about them. However, what he hates in his heart is An Longyi, who ruined his life at the beginning. It's too late to be grateful to the emperor and King Xiaohan. Although he knows the danger, after all, Leng Chengqi has been a person who has walked several times from the Yanluo Hall. First, he is not afraid of power, and secondly, he has the ambition to serve the country. Leng Xuanrong guessed that his father came to the imperial city from the peak of Zixia, and there must be a reason for Mr. Zhang, the hermit of the previous dynasty. Therefore, it can be said that his father secretly got the help of Mr. Zhang, and coupled with Dou Yandong, the fifth gentleman of the imperial palace, these two forces can achieve many things. That's why my father dared to make a plan to stay.
However, I'm afraid that Du Yilin is also accurate about these things. If he only leaves Leng Chengqi, it is inevitable that this person will be robbed by some faction one day, so Du Yilin will hit his idea on Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang. These two people are very important to Leng Chengqi. Du Yilin knows that Leng Xuanrong is a fierce ghost in the dark, and if he wants to bind this fierce ghost to death, he can only firmly bind Zeng Yanliang first. So he did not hesitate to collude with the emperor to do a play. While solving his last concerns about the settlement, he also sold Zeng Yanliang a big favor. In this way, he is a skillful Guanyin, and the father and daughter of the Leng family, together with Zeng Yanliang, have become things in his palm.
Leng Xuanrong saw that Zeng Yanliang also understood the truth, so she felt guilty, because Brother Yan Liang had already had the idea of taking them away from the noise of the court, but now, he has to face more sinister things for their father and daughter again.
However, Zeng Yanliang grabbed Leng Xuanrong's hand, locked his eyebrows, and said heavily, "Xuanrong, if it hadn't been for you, I would have died long ago. Now I can still stay by your side. It's too late for me to be happy. Where can I get the grievance? Instead...but..." Zeng Yanliang stuttered rarely. He let go of his hand, lowered his head, seemed to be a little frustrated, and whispered, "I was born in poverty. I have no father or mother, and I don't have any strengths, let alone wealth... In the past, I only knew that Xuan Rong had a poor background and wanted to give you a good life. But now..."
Now Leng Xuanrong sees how high his identity is to become the only daughter of the prime minister. Zeng Yanliang couldn't sleep at night, not because An Pingzhi was dying and framed him, but because he saw many rules and etiquette in the imperial city and understood the difference between the family. In the past, no matter how close he was with Leng Xuanrong, it was just a feeling in times of trouble, but now all the enemies have died, and the Leng family also saw a new family. After Yan Liang got rid of the frame-up of the An family, he was still a poor boy with nothing. When the situation is stable, if Leng Chengqi stands firm, there must be many people who praise Leng Chengqi. At that time, how many young masters will come to propose marriage to the Leng family? At that time...
Just thinking about this, Zeng Yanliang's heart is like a knife.
Leng Xuanrong listened to Zeng Yanliang's words, but suddenly thought about it. Her heart shrank and suddenly became scared.
Is it that Brother Yan Liang intends to leave?
At ordinary times, Leng Xuanrong would not think about it immediately, but today she has those words hidden in her heart, and the deepest fear makes her not calm at all.
Leng Xuanrong lowered her head deeply and failed to make a sound for a long time.
Zeng Yanliang also lowered his head. He was afraid that Leng Xuanrong would smile at him again and say another words to retain him. If so, it really means that Leng Xuanrong is estranged from him.
But after a long time, Zeng Yanliang gritted his teeth and looked up, but saw the crystal shining on the table in front of Leng Xuanrong. Looking carefully, it turned out to be a drop of water reflecting the candlelight.
Leng Xuanrong cried silently.
Zeng Yanliang's heart suddenly shrank.
"Xuanrong..."
What are you doing? Do you really want to force her to make a break at this time?
Zeng Yanliang regrets it.
However, at this moment, Leng Xuanrong suddenly raised his head, took out a veil to wipe the tears, sucked his nose, and said, "Brother Yan Liang, what I want to tell you next is that if you believe it, you will believe it. If you don't believe it, just think that I'm confused and told you a story. However, anyway, you must Listen to me."
Zeng Yanliang felt puzzled. Why did Xuanrong suddenly think of telling stories at this time?
But Zeng Yanliang also vaguely felt that this story was connected to Leng Xuanrong's heart.
He sat here and listened quietly.
Leng Xuanrong took a deep breath, closed her eyes, frowned tightly, and finally made up her mind. She gritted her teeth, opened her eyes, and opened her mouth, and there was some chill in her voice.
"That year, my father and I have been in trouble in Nayan County for two years. My father was heartless, disheartened, and addicted to gambling. Only one person often took care of us, that is Brother Yan Liang..."
Zeng Yanliang heard Leng Xuanrong suddenly talk about the past, but her face seemed to be talking about some nightmare, which was cold.
"... The official silver of the imperial court was robbed, and the county government sent people to look for it. Finally, only found the seriously injured elder brother Yan Liang. Liang Qiurong was afraid that the court would blame him, so he said that this person colluded with bandits and asked the court to be executed. On the day of the execution, I tried my best to meet Brother Yan Liang for the last time, but I didn't expect that this would become the beginning of the disaster in the future.
Zeng Yanliang's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't understand what Leng Xuanrong was talking about. She obviously seemed to be talking about the past, but... But why did she say something different from the past? What is beheading? What kind of court? Isn't he alive? Wasn't he saved by her? She...what is she talking about?
"... My father was killed by Li Duen from the casino, and the mainland matchmaker robbed me with a wedding letter. I was tied to get married, but when I entered the bridal chamber, I saw a cold body lying on the bed. I struggled desperately but to no avail. I thought I would die here, but I didn't expect Liang Qiurong to send someone to catch me back. He tortured and abused me in order to get what Brother Yan Liang said to me before he died. I told him thousands of times, but Brother Yan Liang told me to take good care of myself, but this was of no use to Liang Qiurong. Finally, Liang Qiurong had no choice but to send me to He Lijing, who knew many secret things and did not treat me as a human at all. I was abused by Miss He Ruiping as the most despicable girl, but He Lijing thought I knew something, but he just didn't say anything, so he kept my life. Later, He Ruiping married An Pingzhi, and I also came to the imperial city and entered the Prime Minister's mansion.
"I hid everything left by my father, and it was the only thing that saved my life. An Longyi forced me, but never found the key thing. Later, Du Yilin found out that I had suffered a long time and conveniently poisoned An Longyi at the birthday banquet..."
Leng Xuanrong trembled word by word and said it was extremely difficult. Scenes of her previous life flashed in front of her eyes. She suppressed tears, resisted the emotions rolling in the bottom of her heart, and dared not look up at Zeng Yanliang.
The more Zeng Yanliang listened, the more surprised he became, and the more angry he became. The joints on his hands were clenched, and his eyes were full of flames.
