Fight the Giants

  Chapter 556 Solve your confusion

  Huo Xi reacted somewhat unexpectedly.

  Since she brought Nian'er to her mother's grave last time, he has been clinging to Yang Shi and Huo Erhuai since he learned that he was adopted. Some couldn't accept the fact that he wasn't his own.

   But now what he's showing...is he wanting to go back to that home?

  Huo Xi pulled him to sit on the side couch.

   "Why does Nian'er want to go back to that home?"

  Huo Nian pursed his lips tightly.

  When Huo Xi thought he would not get an answer, Nian'er looked at her steadfastly, "Sister, I want to have a higher status than now. I don't want others to bully us."

  He overheard.

  He overheard what his sister said to him that day.

   It was all because the grandparents' family was convicted, so they didn't pay attention to their mother, and they harmed their mother. That's why he and his sister have been living outside for so many years.

  My mother died in front of my sister, and my sister still can't let go of it. He is very sad. I didn't expect my mother to be like that. He hasn't seen his mother yet, so he doesn't know what she looks like.

  If she was alive, she would definitely like her like her mother.

  He also wanted to avenge his mother. He didn't want bad guys to take their stuff.

Huo Xi looked at him and touched his head, "But we can't go back now. My sister wants to see his attitude. If he is soft, my sister will clear the way for you before letting you go back. "

   "We can go back and face it."

   "Not yet."

   "When was that?"

   "You let my sister think about it first."

  Nian'er no longer struggled, nodded: "Okay, Nian'er listens to my sister."

  The first quarter moon on a winter night is covered by thick clouds, half hidden.

  Huo Xi opened the window, sitting in front of the window staring at the moon in a daze. Eyebrows are slightly worried.

  Mu Yan looked at her on the wall for a long time, but if she didn't move, he didn't move either.

  It wasn't until her body became cold that she floated over: "Isn't it cold?" He jumped in and stepped forward to close the window lattice gently.

  Huo Xi didn't come back to his senses, and looked at him blankly.

  Xiang Cao and Xia He trotted over when they heard the movement, seeing his familiar look, they didn't know how to react, "Girl?"

  Huo Xi came back to his senses, "Make a cup of tea, put a pot of hot water on the fire cage, let's go down."

"yes."

   "What are you thinking about?" I was stunned for a long time. He was standing cold.

   After finishing speaking, he went to look at her again, turned around and saw her big cloak on the imperial concubine's bed, leaned over to hold it in his hand, and put it on for her. The movements were familiar, and he went around to tie Huo Xi's belt.

  Huo Xi didn't move, just looked at him, "You look like this, I can't get married. I guess no one wants me."

  Mu Yan was dissatisfied: "Didn't you say that you have promised each other for life? You still want to switch to someone else's arms?"

  Huo Xi glared at him, what he said was so ugly, why would he fall into the arms of others instead. Besides, who made a promise to him for life? Talk to yourself, shameless.

  Mu Yan didn't care about her attitude either. A duplicity woman is trouble.

   Tilted on the imperial concubine's bed, with her head resting on her head, "I heard that the British Duke gave you a box of birthday presents today?"

   "Are you so well informed?"

  Mu Yan raised his eyebrows, the British government sent it off, wouldn't he know how to send it off? The British public gave them all at once, and he gave one piece a day. He smacked his mouth towards the table.

  Huo Xi followed his gaze, only to find a box on the table, a little excited in his heart: "For me?" He opened it while talking.

   is a hosta.

   "Why don't you send Bu Yao?"

   "If you like it, I'll deliver it tomorrow."

  Huo Xi glared at him, admiring the hosta in the box: "It's very beautiful."

  The carving is very good. The head of the hairpin is surrounded by a few plum blossoms. Different from the jasper color of the hosta itself, there are little red and yellow on the stamens, which is amazing.

"Like it?"

"generally."

  Duplicity. Forget it, don't bother with her. "What were you thinking just now?"

   "I'm missing you." Huo Xi closed the box and placed it in the drawer of the dressing table with great care.

  Mu Yan followed her, "What's wrong with Nian'er?" The younger brother of the person he loves is naturally his younger brother.

   "Nian'er seems to want to go back to the Zhang family."

   "You don't want him to go back?"

  Huo Xi didn't answer.

  Mu Yan thought for a while: "Actually, I think it would be better for you siblings to go back. It's better to be in the open than to be in the dark."

   "But I'm worried that Mrs. Wu will harm him. I want that person to deal with Mrs. Wu and let Nian'er go back."

  The pillow person for so many years, how can I deal with it as I say. "With me here, don't worry."

  Huo Xi was moved and glanced at him.

Shaking his head, "You don't understand. If Mrs. Wu doesn't deal with it, Nian'er is just the second son, and his status is actually lower than that of Zhang Xie. If we don't go back, he will feel ashamed, and maybe he will make up for Nian'er, and we Some things are easier to deal with outside."

   "Don't worry, Nian'er is the first son of the original wife. It is said that "a son with a wife should not be the son of a concubine". Even if the concubine helps him, his son's status is not as good as that of the original wife's son."

  Huo Xi shook his head, "Do you still remember the old emperor?"

   "Emperor Jianwen?"

  Huo Xi nodded.

"Emperor Jianwen was originally the son of a concubine. The original concubine of Prince Zhu Biao was the Chang family. The eldest son born to the Chang family died young at the age of eight, but even so, she still had a second son. It is logical that it is not the turn of Emperor Jianwen to inherit the throne." But she passed away the year she gave birth to her second son, and Emperor Jianwen's biological mother was able to be restored, and Emperor Jianwen became the eldest son. In the end, he was made the emperor's grandson by the Taizu and became the emperor."

  Huo Xi was full of worries.

  The Wei Dynasty has always been a system of establishing a descendant and establishing a chief. The second son of the royal family, the first son, and the other concubine sons, will be crowned county kings when they reach the age of ten, and they will never have a chance to be a big one.

  The royal family is like this, and the family of the duke and earl will naturally follow this.

   Now the Wu family has been righted. Zhang Jie is the eldest son.

  Nian'er went back to Zhang's mansion, except for increasing the danger for him, there is no other benefit. Only outside, if Wu Shi feels that Nian'er is a threat, and Wu Shi makes a move, then she can better plan for Nian'er.

  Mu Yan looked at her with some distress after hearing this.

   In order to avenge her mother and her brother, she has thought so much? I don't know how many things I have to bear in my heart.

   "It's cold in the room, come sit by the brazier." Greeted her.

  Huo Xi glanced at him, but didn't move.

  Mu Yan persistently asked her to sit by the brazier and sit in front of him, "Sit down here, so I can tell you in detail. You only know one thing, but not the other."

  Huo Xi sat down.

  Seeing that her body was no longer trembling, Mu Yan was relieved, and made another cup of hot tea and put it in her hand for her to hold.

"According to the ancestral system, in fact, King Wu, the second son of Concubine Chang, should be established. But one is that Concubine Chang went away the year King Wu was born, without the protection of her mother. The other is that the prince is sick. If the prince is healthy, the prince Succession, the future throne must belong to the king of Wu. But when the Taizu established the emperor and grandson, the prince died early because of his poor health, and the king of Wu was too young, and the Taizu couldn't wait for him to grow up."

  Huo Xi listened quietly.

"And the most important thing is King Wu's grandfather, Chang Yuchun, king of Kaiping, who passed away long ago. And King Wu's uncle, Lan Yu, was immoral and a monster. He made countless enemies in the court. Taizu couldn't bear him anymore. Also I am afraid that setting up the King of Wu will fuel Lan Yu's arrogance. I have no choice but to abandon the King of Wu and replace him with Emperor Jianwen."

  Huo Xi was a little surprised by such an inside story, "Isn't it because Emperor Jianwen's mother has been righted and he is the eldest son?"

Mu Yan shook his head: "No. It was caused by the situation in the court at that time. Taizu really couldn't wait for King Wu to grow up. According to the ancestral system, King Wu should be above Emperor Jianwen. So, don't worry about Zhang Jiezi Think about it."

  Huo Xi frowned.

  Mu Yan glanced at her and said again: "Besides, there is one more important thing that you forgot."
