Comprehensive film and television: Female supporting role counterattack plan
Chapter 301 The Untamed, Jiang Yanli 39
Compared to the bustle of the Lan Clan Ancestral Hall at this moment, Lan Qiren's place is really okay, except that the atmosphere is a little dull and depressing.
That is, he kicked open Qing Hengjun's tightly closed door in a fit of emotion, but that kick seemed to carry with it his years of accumulated resentment and helplessness.
"Qi Ren?" Qing Hengjun looked at his brother whom he hadn't seen for several years, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
The seclusion in the past few years made him feel as if he was really isolated from the world. When he saw his brother again, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Lan Qiren was obviously several years younger than him, but he looked older than him. The wrinkles on his face were the marks left by time and worry, and perhaps also the care of family affairs and concern for his elder brother.
Lan Qiren looked at the house where Qing Hengjun was in seclusion, which was filled with portraits of his deceased brothers and sisters-in-law. The portraits were lifelike, and it seemed that the strokes and painting techniques were all from Qing Hengjun's hands.
Every stroke was filled with Qing Hengjun's thoughts and memories of his wife, but this made Lan Qiren feel heartbroken instantly.
The pains of the past seemed to be reopened, and the anger in his heart became increasingly difficult to suppress.
After holding back for a few times, Lan Qiren couldn't help but pointed at Qing Hengjun's nose and cursed: "You regret it now that your brother and sister-in-law passed away. The child starved to death and you got milk. What were you doing before?" His voice trembled with anger, and his eyes were full of disappointment and heartache.
He had never been able to come to terms with some of his brother's past actions, and now when he saw these portraits, his emotions finally burst out like a flood.
For a long time, Lan Qiren had firmly believed in his heart that his brother's handling of the matter between his brother and sister-in-law was too hasty.
He often thought about the past in the dead of night, and every time he recalled it, he felt more and more that it was his brother's seemingly impulsive decision that led to the series of regrets today.
These regrets are like irreparable cracks in the long river of time, deeply engraved in the hearts of the two brothers, Lan Xichen, and Lan Wangji, and now have reached a point where they cannot be repaired.
When Lan Qiren was so angry that he was shaking all over and could hardly stand, Qing Hengjun hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hands and held him firmly.
At this moment, Qing Hengjun keenly smelled the faint scent of alcohol emanating from Lan Qiren.
The faint smell of alcohol in the air made Qing Hengjun's eyes widen in surprise, and he blurted out, "Qi Ren, have you been drinking?"
"Don't worry about whether I drank or not. As the head of the Lan clan, you are in seclusion because of your brother and sister-in-law's matter. It's fine if you just reflect on it. Tell me how Xichen and Wangji came about?"
Lan Qiren’s eyes were red as he almost yelled these words, his tone full of long-suppressed emotions.
"Forehead......"
Qing Hengjun was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer, and his face showed a complex expression of embarrassment and guilt.
"Okay, I won't ask you that. I'll ask you, as a husband, why didn't you thoroughly investigate why your brother and sister-in-law wanted to kill our master? Are you afraid or is there something else?"
Qing Hengjun sighed and said, "To be frank, the disputes between her and Master are all about right and wrong. The other Masters all advised me to think about the reputation of Gusu Lan Clan, so..."
Lan Qiren was silent for a long time after hearing what Qing Hengjun said, and finally murmured, "I see, that's how it is. I was wondering why my brother and sister-in-law are willing to be imprisoned in Longdan Xiaozhu without any regrets, even though their spiritual power is not weaker than yours."
"She really doesn't blame me?"
"Brother and sister-in-law never said anything to Xichen and Wangji. Even though the elders stipulated that they could only see each other once a month, brother and sister-in-law always waited for Xichen and Wangji happily and never complained."
"Really?" Qing Hengjun turned to look at the portrait in the middle of the room, lowered his head slightly, and a trace of pain and regret flashed in his eyes.
"Brother, for the sake of what you call the Gusu Lan Clan's reputation, my brother and sister-in-law voluntarily imprisoned themselves in Longdan Xiaozhu and eventually died of depression. How long will you continue your seclusion?"
Lan Qiren closed his eyes and continued, "The elders have been making things difficult for you and trying to stop you since you started your retreat. Now that Xichen has succeeded as the sect master, the elders will become even more unscrupulous. Brother, it's time for you to come out of retreat."
When Qing Hengjun heard Lan Qiren's words, his heart was filled with turbulent waves.
He looked at the portraits all over the room, and those past memories came flooding back like a tide, making his heart restless for a long time.
After a long silence, Qing Heng Jun slowly said: "Qi Ren, I know you have worked hard these years, I... I have also been reflecting on my actions. However, some things, once they happen, are difficult to reverse."
Lan Qiren opened his eyes, his eyes full of determination: "Brother, it's not too late now. Although Xichen has succeeded as the leader, he needs your support and guidance. You know that I have been raised differently from you and the education you received since childhood."
Qing Hengjun nodded slightly, a trace of fatigue on his face: "I understand. But, the guilt and pain in my heart are still hard to let go."
“Brother, my brother and sister-in-law have passed away. It’s useless to blame yourself. Now you should face reality for the future of the Lan family, for Xichen and Wangji.” Lan Qiren said earnestly.
Qing Hengjun took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, Qiren, I will come out."
Lan Qiren showed a gratified smile on his face: "Brother, this is the responsibility you should have."
The two brothers looked at each other, and the barriers in their hearts completely disappeared at this moment.
However, the brothers Qing Hengjun and Lan Qiren did not expect that after coming out of seclusion, the first person Qing Hengjun would have to face was not the elders who were all-powerful in the Cloud Recesses, but the furious Jiang Cheng.
--------------------
"Sir, sir, something's wrong..."
Lan Qiren had slept in Qing Hengjun's retreat house for a whole night. As soon as he returned to his own pine room, he heard the door god's anxious shouting.
As soon as he frowned, he remembered that the Gusu Lan Clan's family rules had changed, so he simply went out again to ask, "What's wrong? Tell me in detail."
As a direct disciple of the Gusu Lan Clan, the student had naturally seen Qingheng Jun before, and he quickly reacted and said, "Qingheng Jun, sir, the young master of the Yunmeng Jiang Clan, Jiang Wanyin, was fighting with Zewu Jun and the second young master."
"Huh? Where did the fight start?" Lan Qiren and Qing Hengjun looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong, so they asked hurriedly.
"Uh... outside the ancestral hall."
"what?"
After all, Qing Heng Jun had experienced many ups and downs. When he heard that Jiang Cheng was fighting with his two sons outside the Lan family ancestral hall, he was not as anxious as Lan Qiren.
"Qiren, don't be so anxious. Let this child tell us what's going on first."
