The first male queen [crossing]

Lanling has fallen?

Such news was a great blow to Xiao Yuan, he could even believe that Lanling was only in charge of Xiao Yan, he could at least guarantee his power.

What's more, there is Langya Wang's assistance from the side, so why did Lanling fall in the end?

Xiao Yuan glared at Xiao Yan, especially Xiao Jue who was still standing trembling behind him. At this moment, there were only four of them in the main hall, and even Xiao Jue's biological mother never followed them. It was hard to believe what they had gone through.

Xiao Yan knelt in the main hall, listening to Xiao Yu's crying, and because his mother was only holding Xiao Yuan's hand at the moment, lowering her eyebrows and weeping, he couldn't care less about the situation of Lanling's fall. said it.

In October, Jianzhang, Duke of Zheng Guo of Luoyang, sat on the throne of regent because he supported the new emperor's accession to the throne. He wanted to take the opportunity to dominate the world.

It wasn't until the Lanling Xiao clan sent troops to Chang'an that Wang Jianzhang began his plan to embezzle Lanling.

But Xiao Yan was self-willed and arrogant. As soon as Xiao Boxu and Xiao Yuan left Lanling, he began to act arbitrarily. Even Mrs. Xiao's repeated persuasion was useless.

Later, Luoyang sent troops to attack, and the leader of the troops knew Xiao Yan's personality well, let him win a few battles first, let him get overwhelmed with pride, and finally took him down with one blow, forcing the guard of Lanling to surrender in Kaesong .

Xiao Shunhua, who married into the Wang family, learned of this, in order to protect Lanling and the Langya Wang family, regardless of her daughter, she put on armor and went into battle, single-handedly broke into the enemy camp and rescued Xiao Yan, and even assumed the responsibility of guarding Lanling.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yan couldn't stand the cold words from others, broke with Xiao Shunhua, and even drove her back to Langya. In this way, Luoyang's troops attacked Lanling City in one fell swoop, Xiao Shunhua resisted desperately, Xiao Yan took his wife and The two younger brothers escaped from Lanling City with a different appearance.

Later they heard that on the day Lanling City was broken, it was Xiao Shunhua who blocked the enemy troops entering the city with his own body, delaying their escape, and was finally killed by the rebels.

Listening to Xiao Yan's justification, Xiao Yu accused him of all kinds of behaviors, Xiao Yuan clenched his fist even more tightly, and it was Madam Xiao who stroked his hand gently, signaling him not to be angry.

"Then... what about Shunhua?" Xiao Boxu looked at them and asked.

It's good not to mention it, but when it was mentioned, Mrs. Xiao couldn't care about her seriously ill body, and cried bitterly.

"Mother, where is my sister?" Xiao Yuan also asked hastily.

Madam was crying on Xiao Yuan's chest, but Xiao Yu who was beside her was crying very sadly, sobbing and saying: "Sister... my sister is gone, we also heard from my brother-in-law that my sister is pregnant..."

As soon as these words came out, let alone Xiao Yuan, Xiao Boxu couldn't help getting up and rushing in front of Xiao Yan, and slapped Xiao Yan on the face, even half of his face was swollen.

Xiao Boxu was furious, pointing at Xiao Yan for a long while but unable to say a word.

After all, Xiao Yuan couldn't bear it any longer, he supported Mrs. Xiao and pointed to Xiao Yan and said: "You are so useless, you defeated Lanling with heavy soldiers in your hand, fell into the enemy's camp after being trapped by others, and you need a woman to come to rescue you, so convenient Forget it, you didn’t take responsibility, left Lanling and Shunhua behind, and caused her to die, you deserve to be this big brother!”

Xiao Yan turned his head to look at Xiao Yuan, with a sneer on his face: "Father and mother say I'll leave you alone, Xiao Yuan, you are worthy of accusing me of anything, if you didn't say that you would sit in Chang'an to command the world and take away the Lanling soldiers Ma, will Lanling fall? Will Shunhua sacrifice himself!"

Xiao Yuan smiled mockingly, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said: "Xiao Yan, everything has its limit, and you are useless, but you blame others for all your mistakes, and you lost Luoyang carelessly. Just discard them and demote them to be pawns. Lanling will leave you half of the men and horses, and don’t ask you to embezzle the surrounding area. As long as you guard Lanling, the result is that Lanling falls, Shunhua dies, and even the child in his womb I haven't had time to take a look at the world, are you worthy to be an uncle, are you worthy to be a big brother!"

"You are worthy!" Xiao Yan said, "Since you are worthy, why don't you guard Lanling, because you want to win the limelight in front of your father, don't forget Xiao Yan, as long as I am in this family, you will never try to surpass me, Climb on my head and run amok!"

"That's enough!" Mrs. Xiao stopped her, she supported Xiao Yuan's hand and stood up and looked at Xiao Yan, "I never said a single word to blame you all this way, Dalang, when will you grow up, Erlang for you Are you not satisfied with how much you have done!"

"Mother, why are you even turning towards him?" Xiao Yan asked puzzled.

Mrs. Xiao held Xiao Yuan's hand and sobbed, "I'm not looking at him, but Erlang. He was wronged because of you, because you didn't listen to advice and fell off your leg while riding a horse. Your father blamed Erlang for not being a brother." Responsibility dissuades you, he is only 12 years old, and you! You were seventeen at that time, you are not a child anymore, why are you still so self-willed!"

"I..." Xiao Yan really wanted to argue, but he didn't know how to argue.

"Erlang was punished by your father to kneel in the ancestral hall for a day and a night, and then he had a high fever. Your father never came to see him, just because he failed to dissuade you. You are better off, try to blame Erlang, target Erlang everywhere, and now you have lost Lan. You are still blaming Erlang for causing Shunhua's death, Dalang, my mother is teaching you like your father, why are you so different!"

Mrs. Xiao was heartbroken, because she caught wind and cold on the way to flee, she became emotional and fainted in Xiao Yuan's arms at this moment, which caused a panic in the hall. He went to the backyard and carried his wife into the bed in the room.

While waiting for the doctor to go to check his wife's pulse, the children stood in the courtyard outside, waiting anxiously.

Xiao Boxu looked at the dirty sons, and hurriedly asked them to wash up and eat some hot food before saying hello to Mrs. Xiao.

Waiting for the other sons to leave, Xiao Boxu came to Xiao Yuan's side, looked at him with a dignified expression, and patted his shoulder: "Your elder brother's words are indeed a bit serious, don't take it to heart, he is always Your elder brother."

Xiao Yuan looked calm. He knew Xiao Boxu would say this, so he was not surprised at all: "What about Shunhua? Did Shunhua die in vain?"

Xiao Boxu lowered his eyes and sighed: "I, Lanling, am sorry for Langya, Shunhua... Shunhua sacrificed for our great cause, and she should be granted the title, just let her go with dignity."

"Father."

Seeing Xiao Boxu turning around to go into the house, Xiao Yuan immediately called out to him.

Xiao Boxu looked back at Xiao Yuan, wondering, "What else?"

Xiao Yuan said: "For father, what's so good about him? If he can't keep a Lanling, will father entrust him with important tasks in the future?"

This was the first time that Xiao Yuan asked Xiao Boxu this matter so bluntly, naturally Xiao Boxu was also very surprised by his question.

In the past, Xiao Yuan didn't fight or snatch, he was neither the eldest son nor the youngest son, compared to Xiao Jue from the concubine, Xiao Yuan became the one he was most likely to ignore, and also the one he was most assured of.

So when Xiao Yuan asked him this question, he was stunned at first, and then said: "Although your elder brother is not as good at dispatching troops as you, but he is obedient and filial to his parents after all, isn't he?"

Xiao Yuan closed his eyes, and didn't ask any more questions, but bowed respectfully to Xiao Boxu: "I'll come to say hello again when my mother wakes up."

Without waiting for Xiao Boxu's reply, Xiao Yuan stood up straight and walked out of the courtyard where his father lived.

Gu Junci was standing under the tree outside the courtyard, seeing Xiao Yuan coming out, he hurried up to greet him, and said with concern: "How is Madam, it's nothing serious."

Xiao Yuan shook his head, didn't say much, just went straight back to his courtyard.

Gu Junci was a little worried, but Xiao Yuan didn't say anything, and he didn't want to ask more questions. He just followed behind him quietly until he returned to the courtyard and saw Xiao Yan occupying Xiao Yuan's current residence as the eldest son. When Gu Junci was in the courtyard, Gu Junci was about to step forward to comment, but was stopped by Xiao Yuan.

"How could he be so shameless." Gu Junci really couldn't figure it out.

There was a sneer on Xiao Yuan's lips, all he recalled in his mind were his father's words, Xiao Yan was obedient and filial to his parents, so no matter what mistakes he made or what he did, he would be forgiven.

But what about him?

Because Xiao Yan is five years behind, he is not taken seriously everywhere. He has to learn what Xiao Yan knows, and he has to learn what Xiao Yan can't, so that one day in the future, when Xiao Yan inherits the family business, he can help him wholeheartedly.

As for Xiao Yan, he was never satisfied, even arrogant. He couldn't see that this brother was better than him.

Xiao Yuan and Gu Junci walked up to the high platform, and when they saw the young servant carrying out his luggage in fear, he immediately signaled them to stop.

Xiao Yan came out of the room and looked at Xiao Yuan, and said proudly: "Xiao Yuan, your yard is nice, I like it very much, after all, my elder brother, I should live in this yard."

"Father just hit you on the left cheek." Xiao Yuan said lightly.

Xiao Yan was slightly stunned: "What?"

Snapped--

The crisp and loud applause stopped along with his voice, and he looked at Xiao Yuan in puzzlement, just as he was about to raise his hand to teach him a lesson, Xiao Yuan tightly held his wrist and swung it away.

"Try to move the things in my yard!" Xiao Yuan glared at Xiao Yan, his wolf-like eyes made Xiao Yan stunned for a long while, without any momentum to refute.

Gu Junci stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, as if he had watched a good show, and applauded Xiao Yuan in his heart.

Just now when he was in the front hall, he heard what Mrs. Xiao said. If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that such an outstanding person as Xiao Yuan had never been valued in this family.

He once heard Xiao Yu say that his second brother developed a high fever after being punished to kneel when he was 12 years old, but he didn't think that he was actually responsible for Xiao Yan's waywardness.

12 years old, 12-year-old Gu Junci is still coquettish in the arms of his father, queen and queen because of his hard training in martial arts, but Xiao Yuan has to take responsibility for his brother's waywardness.

For some unknown reason, Gu Junci felt a little sad in his heart, but also a little rejoiced that Xiao Yuan was Xiao Yuan after all, and would not be defeated by anything.

For Xiao Yan's arrogant and unreasonable behavior, Gu Junci also sneered, walked behind Xiao Yuan and said to the boy: "Put the second son's luggage back to its original place, otherwise, I will ask my people to help Are you busy?"

This Xiao Yan didn't know the identity of Gu Junci at the moment, but the servants in this mansion knew it well, not only knew what Gu Junci's identity was, but even knew that he and Xiao Yuan were in the same group, so he took it without thinking. Xiao Yuan's luggage entered the room.

Xiao Yan was furious: "Xiao Yuan, don't go too far, you have no respect for your elders, be careful that I will let my father..."

"What about my father?" Xiao Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Let him punish me with another hundred military sticks? Xiao Yan, Lanling has been lost now, even if you don't feel a little bit guilty, you should be a man with your tail between your legs and say everything you want So, do it yourself."
