The Trick to Teasing a Noble Family’s Son

Chapter 41

Views:

Wei Lan was trembling with anger from Xie Zichen.

However, her expression was calm, and she just shook her hand for pouring tea, showing how angry she was.

She poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and used this gap to calm herself down, telling herself that this is a man, and she shouldn't argue with a man.

In order to avoid things like angering Su Cheng that day, which was out of her demeanor, she kept silent until she drank all the tea in the teacup. She finally regained some sense, slowly raised her head, and said seriously: " What is the identity of the minister to take care of my affairs?"

"You and my brother..."

"Brother shouldn't care about these things!" Wei Lan interrupted him, and said seriously: "Marrying a wife and having children, life aspirations, these are all my own business. Whether I can succeed or not has nothing to do with you, my parents and elders If you don't care about me, Zichen, where do you have the right to control me?"

"I don't want to talk to you more because I think everyone has their own aspirations, but since you insist on managing it, I will explain it to you."

As she said that, Wei Lan raised her head, she did not have the usual romantic and refined look, but instead brought a bit of coldness, making her words appear solemn and serious.

"I, Wei Lan, went to the frontier alone at the age of twelve. After seventy-three battles on the battlefield, I climbed from a soldier to the position of a major general alone. What do you think Wei Lan wants?"

"Naturally, one person is under one person and above ten thousand people." Xie Zichen frowned, not understanding why Wei Lan suddenly said this to him. Wei Lan chuckled: "I beg this person to be under ten thousand people, why?"

This time Xie Zichen didn't speak, because he knew that Wei Lan had something to say.

Wei Lan put down the teacup, straightened her sleeves with one hand, and said slowly: "It's because I, Wei Lan, want to live the way I, Wei Lan, want to live. No one can do anything to me, let alone restrain me! I like men. It's a girl, I want to be an official or go back to the countryside, who I want to protect, who I want to love, who I want to marry, all of these should be my own business, even my parents can't interfere!"

"But now that you are fledgling, you can..."

"What is lack of wings?" Wei Lan sneered, with a sneer on her face: "In this life, when will you be able to have wings? If you want to be free without sacrificing anything, this is something that is difficult to do in a lifetime. Even Emperor Wu of the Ninth Five Years, who is galloping all over the world, has times when he has no choice but to wait until his wings are full before he can do what he wants to do, then Zichen, I am afraid that you will not be able to wait in this lifetime."

"What do you want to do, if you can do it, do it. If you don't do it now, do you think you will do it again in the future?" Wei Lan stared at Xie Zichen with serious eyes. Xie Zichen was a little annoyed by what she said, and subconsciously yelled Lai: "Childish! Do you think this world is so simple? Life is like walking on thin ice. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. What do you know?!"

What does she know? She has lived two lifetimes, what does she not understand

Wei Lan raised the corners of her mouth coldly, and said lightly, "I'll stay here. Although I'm kind, I hate people who don't know what's interesting. If you understand, Zichen, then you and I will still be brothers in the future. If you don't understand , then you can do whatever you want."

After speaking, Wei Lan turned and opened the door to leave.

Looking at the back of Wei Lan striding forward, Xie Zichen didn't know why, a panic surged up in his heart, he followed quickly, and shouted: "Wei Lan, stop!"

Wei Lan paused, looking at Xie Zichen indifferently, Xie Zichen opened his mouth for a long time, but finally just said: "You will regret it later!"

"Then let him regret it!" Wei Lan raised her head, her face full of arrogance: "If I, Wei Lan, have to be pointed out by others for such trivial matters as who I like and who I want to marry, how can I be called a man! Xie Zichen , I am different from you. You seek to live a stable and long life, but I, Wei Lan, only seek to live a bright and romantic life. How can I regret it if I have lived this life so presumptuously?"

Hearing Wei Lan's words, Xie Zichen finally froze, watched Wei Lan turn his head, and said to Huan Heng who was obviously frightened: "Ah Heng, let's go home."

It took Huan Heng a long time to finally come to his senses, nodded and said, "Okay...Okay."

Said, followed Wei Lan and walked out together.

After the group of people went out, Xie Zichen lowered his eyes and went back into the room a little bit lost. He picked up Wei Lan's unfinished tea and took a sip.

In the mouth of the tea, it is as astringent as heart.

Xie Tong took the package and said cautiously: "Master, that, Mr. Ning is waiting for you outside the palace gate..."

Xie Zichen was stunned for a moment, as if a little absent-minded, and then said: "I see."

Wei Lan led Huan Heng out of the palace and got into the carriage. Huan Heng finally came to his senses, and said uneasy: "A Lan, what are you arguing about?"

He only heard the raised voices of the two people behind him, but didn't hear Xie Zichen's words in front, so he naturally didn't understand. Wei Lan smiled, Zhang He closed the small fan, turned to look at the grand scene on the street outside and said, "It's nothing, Ah Heng doesn't have to worry about it."

"Oh..." Huan Heng sighed with obvious disbelief, "Alan, why do I feel that after you came to Shengjing, things will be different?"

"Oh?" Wei Lan raised her head and looked at Huan Heng amusedly: "What's different?"

"That's right," Huan Heng scratched his head. He was wearing the rich clothes and jade crown of the aristocrat in Shengjing. When he did this, he looked very childish and funny. For some reason, Wei Lan's eyes softened a little, listening to Huan Heng's words : "I just feel that you make people more and more incomprehensible..."

Hearing this, Wei Lan smiled, and looked at Huan Heng with tenderness in her eyes: "Aren't all the people in Shengjing like this?"

Huan Heng was slightly taken aback, and after a while, he suddenly realized: "Yes, people in Shengjing are indeed like this."

"Aheng," Wei Lan couldn't help but feel sorry for Huanheng when she looked at Huanheng's white paper. She straightened up, a little puzzled, and said, "Why did you enter Beijing? Your father never told you that you came here , is Yu Huan's family in great disadvantage?"

"I know." Huan Heng smiled, and when it came to business, he was much more serious on his face. Wei Lan knows that her good friend, although dull and naive in some things, has extraordinary sensitivity in many things. He sighed, a little helpless: "But my Huan family has no objection. Is there any reason not to come when His Majesty summons you? Besides," Huan Heng sat up straight, looked at Wei Lan, and said seriously: "Ah Heng is just like Lan. He does not seek a hundred years of life, but only seeks happiness and enmity. I remember Ah Lan, so I should come. After I come, if I become a burden to my father, it is my incompetence. I should kill myself to repay my father's kindness .”

Never thought that Huan Heng would come to Beijing with such a mentality, Wei Lan couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

After a while, Wei Lan collected her surprised expression, looked at Huan Heng solemnly and said, "A Heng, I will ensure that you return to the north safely. In this life, if you don't let me down, I will certainly not let you down." When Aheng stationed troops at the frontier, and Lan lived in Shengjing, he must do his best to keep the frontier clean. In his year, when Aheng was full of descendants, there would never be anything like this."

Hearing this, Huan Heng couldn't help laughing: "Alan, you are the only one who dares to say such a thing."

Wei Lan smiled, hearing Huan Heng's laughter, couldn't help the joy in her brows and eyes, and said in a gentle voice, "I'm just talking to you."

The two of them talked and arrived at Wei Mansion, Wei Lan got out of the carriage first, then raised a hand, trying to help Huan Heng who raised the curtain and walked out of the carriage. As a result, Huan Heng didn't see her outstretched hand at all. Instead, he jumped off the carriage, looked up at the four characters "Changxinhoufu", and said excitedly: "Wow, Ah Lan, look at your family. It’s so rich to go up!”

Indeed, he is considered rich. Although Wei Shao is not very good, the ancestors of the Changxinhou Mansion have been regarded as dukes who have been favored by the king for a lifetime.

Wei Lan didn't mind Huan Heng's ignorance, she put her hands away with a smile, looked towards the mansion, and heard Wei Hua's voice from afar: "Alan! Alan!"

Not a moment after the sound came out, a girl in pink rushed straight into Wei Lan's arms. Wei Lan picked her up skillfully and said gently, "How is my sister these days?"

Wei Hua raised his red and swollen eyes, and whispered: "Alan is not here, everyone dares to bully me!"

"Who?" Upon hearing this, Wei Lan immediately raised her eyebrows. At this time, another person hugged her thigh. It was Wei Xiong, the youngest of the three siblings. Wei Xiong was not as high as Wei Lan's thigh, hugging her. Lan blinked and said, "It's that doctor! Brother, that doctor bullied sister!"

"Lin Xia?" As soon as Wei Lan mentioned the doctor, Wei Lan immediately thought of him, and then sneered.

Without her here, Lin Xia dared to bully Wei Hua, what a dare.

As soon as Wei Lan showed this expression, Huan Heng immediately became excited, and hurriedly said: "Which thief dares to bully your sister, let me beat it!"

As soon as Huan Heng finished speaking, Wei Shao's dissatisfied voice came over: "Who are you going to hit again?"

Wei Shao and Huan Song are comrades-in-arms, watched Huan Heng grow up, and recognized Huan Heng's voice as soon as he heard it, and said dissatisfiedly: "What does it look like to fight every day!"

Hearing this, Huan Heng opened his eyes wide, and said with some confusion: "Uncle Wei, why did you come to Shengjing and disapprove of Ah Heng's beating and killing? Obviously you told me when you were young, you can beat anyone who is upset." him?"

Wei Shao: "..."

He actually said such a thing

Well, he did think so. A military general, of course he would beat anyone who was upset. But the problem is, he sees Huan Heng unhappy now, very unhappy, but he can't beat him because of his father's face.

Huan Heng is a real person, but his own family is a real beautiful girl (?), he likes to pester Wei Lan when he is in the frontier, Wei Shao is a father, every time he sees Huan Heng following Wei Lan They all felt terrified, worried that Huan Heng would take advantage of their daughter, and worried that Wei Lan could not help but touch Huan Heng and expose her daughter's identity. Huan Heng has been taken isolation measures, but at that time we were all colleagues, Huan Heng wanted to entangle, Wei Lan also enjoyed it, Wei Shao tried his best, but failed to stop the sublimation of the friendship between the two.

After finally returning to Shengjing, Wei Shao finally let go of Huanheng's matter. Who would have thought that Huanheng would follow him within half a year after returning to Shengjing! !

Seeing Huan Heng standing next to Wei Lan with an excited expression on his face, Wei Shao had mixed feelings in his heart. He almost wanted to beat the bastard out with a broom, but he didn't have the guts. After taking a few deep breaths, he said with a straight face, "Didn't your father not let you come?"

"But I want to come." Huan Heng answered immediately: "I don't worry about Alan coming to Beijing alone, I came to see it specially, and want to stay with Alan for a few more years. If Alan doesn't stay happy in Shengjing, I will I'll take Alan back. But don't worry, Uncle," Huan Heng assured with a serious face, "Alan is in the frontier, I will be responsible for Alan's safety, and I won't let Alan go to the battlefield in danger!"

Seeing Huan Heng's swearing look, Wei Shao felt a little stomachache, and always felt that this kid had bad intentions, did he say this to his brother? It's obviously the attitude of marrying a daughter-in-law! !

Considering Huan Heng's stupidity, even if Wei Lan took off her clothes and showed him, he would probably be confused and ask why the other party had a tumor on her chest. If he found out that Wei Lan was a woman, he would probably have to wait a little longer. century.

Wei Shao took a deep breath, and after Wei Lan and Huan Heng paid a visit to Mrs. Wei, he said in a stiff voice, "Come in."

The family happily entered the house, and after the meal, Wei Shao left Wei Lan alone. There were only father and daughter left in the room, Wei Lan took off her robe, knelt on the ground in front of the desk, and poured tea for herself, Wei Shao saw that she refused to speak first, after a long time, he finally said: "Zhang Yushi Can I have already heard about the water conservancy in Xuzhou, this time it was because of my father's carelessness, and I will first apologize to you for my father's sake."

With that said, Wei Shao got himself some wine, raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Wei Lan had a calm expression on her face. After watching Wei Shao finish drinking, she raised her head and asked calmly, "Why did you participate in this matter?"

Wei Shao didn't speak, Wei Lan continued: "The Marquis of Changxin's mansion is also considered rich. Now that you come back to Shengjing, you are also at the age of enjoying your old age. To participate in these things, what are you planning?"

She played with the teacup in her hand, thinking seriously about Wei Shao's motives.

If he doesn't know what Wei Shao is thinking, he may make a mistake the second or third time. She didn't want to touch Wei Shao. In any case, since she occupied Wei Lan's body, she would naturally bear Wei Lan's responsibility. Wei Shao is Wei Lan's father, so she should fulfill Wei Lan's obligations as a daughter. Unless it is absolutely necessary, she will not give up on Wei Shao.

Wei Shao heard Wei Lan's words, and his face became a little bitter: "A Lan, many times, you make me feel incompetent."

"After all, I am your father," he said hoarsely, "I also want to protect you, like a father."

"So your behavior this time is to prove your ability?"

Wei Shao remained silent, taking it as a tacit consent, he was startled and prepared, waiting for Wei Lan's scolding.

I don't know when it started, this daughter has become more and more assertive, and she has gradually become the master of the family. Even he, the father, cannot avoid being scolded by his daughter occasionally in private.

It's just that he got into trouble every time, so he didn't dare to say more. During those years in the frontier fortress, the relationship between all parties was constantly changing. As a vanguard general, he was often faced with the dilemma of not being able to get his salary in time. In the past, he was the one who worked together from the mansion until Wei Lan arrived at the border and went around for him. It's much better to clear up the relationship.

Although he was unwilling in his heart, he was also a little proud. As a parent, how could he not like having a daughter who was so outstanding? It's just that I am often scolded by my daughter, and I can't help but feel that I am useless.

However, after waiting for a while, seeing Wei Lan's silence, Wei Shao raised his head a little apprehensively, and saw Wei Lan put down his teacup, got up and came to him, stretched out his wide sleeves, and made a respectful salute.

"What are you doing!" Wei Shao couldn't help feeling flustered, Wei Lan kowtowed respectfully, raised her head, but said seriously: "Father, I'm sorry."

"You..." Wei Shao was in doubt, and Wei Lan said calmly, "For many years, it was Ah Lan who overstepped and never considered his father's state of mind, so that his father was anxious and deceived by the adulterer. This time, the big mistake was in Alan."

"No, no..." Wei Shao got up hurriedly: "It's for the father, isn't it, it's for the father..."

After speaking, Wei Shao couldn't continue, and Wei Lan respectfully knelt in front of him, but it was like a mountain. He suddenly realized that he seemed to be really old.

"Father's ambition is not in the court, but in fact, there is no need to force it. Ordinary people always have their own strengths. Alan knows that what father wants in his life is to be a fisherman, with simple food, fishing and firewood, but he is willing to insist on getting involved in the court for Alan and his brothers. battles, parenting, fathers have done enough, there is no need for more."

"Now that we've all grown up, Ah Lan has no other wish, only that my father will live up to Ah Lan's wishes, just follow my heart."

What Wei Lan said was respectful and beautiful, but Wei Shao also understood that these words summed up, but one meaning, I hope he will not interfere in the affairs of the court in the future. He couldn't help but smiled wryly. How could he have the guts to intervene after going through this incident? So he said: "As Ah Lan wishes."

"No," Wei Lan straightened up, looked at Wei Shao seriously, and said solemnly: "Father will do what he wants. What Ah Lan said just now is sincere, not a warning. If father prefers to stay in the court, then Ah Lan Lan will be his father's right-hand man. It's just that Ah Lan asked his father, does his father really stay in the court?"

Wei Shao didn't speak.

Wei Lan's words, every word is poked in his heart. After a long time, he sighed, nodded and said, "I understand what you mean. Is this... settled?"

"Father, don't worry," Wei Lan said seriously, "It should be fine."

Wei Shao nodded, waved and said, "Go."

Wei Lan saluted respectfully, got up and backed out, stood in front of Wei Shao's gate, after a long time, sighed, flung her sleeves and left, intending to find Lin Xia.

On the other side, Xie Zichen was already drunk with Wang Ning in the tavern.

It's rare for him to be so unrestrained, perhaps because when he was a teenager, he couldn't help but act a lot more recklessly. Wang Ning was about to go south and came to say goodbye to him, so he used this name to drink with Wang Ning.

Xie Zichen was not good at drinking, but he had a calm expression on his face. Seeing him drinking one cup after another, Wang Ning couldn't help teasing and said: "Zichen, I can't tell, you can drink quite well!"

Xie Zichen didn't speak, just glanced at Wang Ning lightly, and continued to drink down the wine. Wang Ning picked up the fried green beans with her chopsticks and said casually: "I met Lao Qi when I was waiting for you outside the palace gate. He told me that you are the same Wei Shizi quarreled?"

"En." He responded lightly, and Wang Ning was quite surprised: "I heard that you chased her and scolded her into the yard?"

Xie Zichen froze, and after a while, he rubbed the bridge of his nose and said, "Where is it so exaggerated?"

"Really chasing after it?!"

Wang Ning clicked her tongue twice: "It's not like you at all, what are you doing?"

Xie Zichen didn't speak, he drank another glass, Wang Ning also knew that this friend was a boring gourd, and didn't intend to make the other party respond, who knew that after a few drinks, Xie Zichen suddenly raised his head, looked at Wang Ning and said, "I'm doing it for her own good. "

"Let's listen to it." Wang Ning held the peas between her arms, with a serious face. Xie Zichen shook his glass, feeling a little dazed: "I wish her well, I hope she can go further, but she doesn't want to listen to me. If she doesn't want to hear it, I will give it to her, but she hates me..."

What he said was random, but Wang Ning still listened to it.

"He shouldn't like me, and he shouldn't like other men. These will become his stains, and they will also become my stains. The future is very troublesome... The precarious days, all the things that seem insignificant now, may become the future Sharp blade. You don't know when the wind and rain will come, so I have to stop her from doing such a wrong thing... She asked me why, yeah, why should I?"

"She and I are because we are brothers, but if it were you, I don't necessarily care about you. Ah Ning..." Xie Zichen raised his head, his eyes were clear, but Wang Ning knew clearly that he was drunk.

If it wasn't for Xie Zichen who was drunk, how could he have said these things to him

Wang Ning is a person with a delicate heart, and everyone in the Wang family is like this. Listening to Xie Zichen's words, Wang Ning's mind turned and she couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Xie Zichen frowned, but Wang Ning laughed louder: "Zichen, you must like Wei Shizi very much, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xie Zichen raised his voice, Wang Ning shook his fan, and said with a clear face: "Zichen, you are still too tender."

Xie Zichen, who was said to be tender by sixteen-year-old Wang Ning, and whose combined inner age was over forty years old, expressed dissatisfaction. But he didn't speak, Wang Ning continued: "Don't be annoyed, just listen to me. You are smart and stable, but when it comes to feelings, you are indeed a lump of elm, but this is the first time you like someone , Most of them are like this. Worry about gain and loss, stay away, looking forward to that person, but ashamed to admit this inner desire."

Xie Zichen: "..."

He felt that Wang Ning seemed extraordinarily sharp tonight, every word pierced his heart so deeply.

"Obviously I don't want the other party to be in contact with others. I hope that the other party's eyes are all about me, but I dare not admit it. I have to find a high-sounding reason. Keep it from yourself, who is always smart. Zichen, what do you think?"

Xie Zichen didn't speak, his palms were sweating. He wanted to yell at Wang Ning to shut up, but felt that Wang Ning seemed to be his only piece of driftwood. The whole person felt scared, but still let the other party take it.

Wang Ning looked at Xie Zichen's seldom nervous appearance, and couldn't help sighing: "But Zichen, it shouldn't be like this when you like someone."

Hearing this, Xie Zichen looked up in a daze.

As if enlightened, he seemed to suddenly understand the entanglement.

"I've never liked anyone else." He said hoarsely.

What he said was true, he had never had the same feelings for Wei Lan as he had for anyone else, even Wang Wanqing back then.

He thought he liked Wang Wanqing, but he liked Wei Lan before he realized, how could that be considered liking? It's just that someone once treated you well, and you always want to repay her.

Thinking of Wei Lan's cold eyes, Xie Zichen felt sore for some reason, and said hoarsely: "I don't know how to like someone. I just want her to be good."

I want her to be good, I want her to take a look at him, my heart is full of eyes, it's each other.

On the other side, Wei Lan kicked open Lin Xia's door.

Lin Xia was reciting a book in the room, and when she saw Wei Lan approaching aggressively, she was so frightened that the book in her hand dropped with a "snap".

"Master of all ages!"

Lin Xia was so frightened that she couldn't speak well, Wei Lan walked in with Ran Mo, waved her fan, and sat down at the table.

Ran Mo poured tea for Wei Lan, and Lin Xia curled up like a quail and shivered.

"I heard," Wei Lan said in a cold voice, "during my absence, you bullied my brother?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xia knelt down.

"Misunderstanding..." Lin Xia cried with a sad face, almost crying: "It's all a misunderstanding!!"

Shizi, who the hell can bully your brother with his small fists? ! !

The author has something to say:

[Today's Small Theater]

Wei Lan: "Zichen, have you figured it out? How do you plan to love me?"

Xie Zichen: "I've figured it out, Lan Lan, I won't force you in the future."

Wei Lan: "That's great>
