Scheme of the Official Descendant
Chapter 141 Sudden Change
Ren Yaoqi was stunned as soon as the words came out.
She has almost forgotten what she was like in the last life, but in this life, she must not be reckless or impatient.
Obviously Xiao Jingxi is a dangerous person, and even if the two have not had conflicts now, it is still hard to say what will happen in the future. But why would she say such a nonsensical sentence in front of Xiao Jingxi so impulsively?
Xiao Jingxi was also stunned.
The two just looked at each other in a daze, neither of them spoke.
"Cough." Xiao Jinglin coughed lightly, glanced at the two of them, and when they came back to their senses, they turned their heads to pay attention to the competition outside, as if they were not affected by the previous atmosphere at all.
Ren Yaoqi was angry, but Xiao Jingxi was in a complicated mood.
The two had their own thoughts, so that even when they came back to their senses, they were speechless for a while.
"Use or not depends on whether it is useful or useless." After a long silence, just when Ren Yaoqi thought that Xiao Jingxi would not want to continue this topic with her, Xiao Jingxi suddenly said.
Ren Yaoqi turned Xiao Jingxi's tongue-twister words slightly in her heart, and suddenly felt a feeling of seeing the moon through the clouds and mist.
She had always thought that the Yanbei Palace wanted to use the Han family, but now there is a Lei family, whose strength and momentum are not inferior to the Han family, and because the head of the Lei family is very young, it does not have the old-fashioned decline of other families. Reminiscent of Xiao Jingxi's words, there may be more than one hand behind the Yanbei Palace. There are more than one family like the Han family and the Lei family, but in the end, only the Han family and the Lei family stand out. Those other families behind them began to turn into dark lines.
But one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the Yanbei Palace still needs to make a choice between the Han family and the Lei family in the end, and the family that wins in the end will truly become the sword in the hands of the Yanbei Palace.
This can explain why Ren Yaoqi had no impression of the Lei family in her previous life. In the previous life, it was very possible that in the final contest between the Lei family and the Han family, the Lei family lost as soon as they emerged, and only the Han family had the last laugh.
"Is the Yanbei Palace not going to make a move?" Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi and asked.
What she asked was whether the Yanbei Palace would not take action in the contest between the Han family and the Lei family. Although she asked vaguely, she believed that Xiao Jingxi could understand.
Sure enough, Xiao Jingxi understood. Not only did he understand, he even put away the surprise in his heart.
He didn't just see Ren Yaoqi's intelligence and sharpness and draw inferences from one example today, and no matter how surprised he was, it would appear that he made a fuss.
Obviously this kind of thing shouldn't be revealed from his mouth, but for some reason, Xiao Jingxi didn't feel annoyed at all.
"No." He took a sip of tea and replied firmly.
The expected answer.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but sighed.
Xiao Jingxi smiled, looked at Ren Yaoqi and said, "The Lei family may lose."
He naturally knew that Ren Yaoqi did not want the Yanbei Palace to choose the Han family in the end. Therefore, between the Han family and the newly emerged Lei family, Ren Yaoqi hoped that the Lei family would win.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but smile wryly, because she knew that the Lei family would definitely lose, and they lost completely before the two families actually confronted each other.
At this time, there was a burst of cheers on the river and the sound of drums beating the sky.
It's like the first game is over.
"The second Yun's family, the third Su's family." Xiao Jinglin reported the result on her own, regardless of whether the other two were thinking about it.
She doesn't report which one is the first, because everyone knows that the first must be the Yanbei Palace.
But this is still the first game, 16 dragon boats participated in the competition, leaving 8 boats. The next round will be four out of eight.
In the second round, it was not King Yanbei who struck the gong, but the old man of the Su family. After Yanbei was rebuilt, the Su family reorganized the dragon boat race, so the second gong in previous years was also played by the Su family.
It was still lively outside, but Ren Yaoqi was careless. Amidst the din, she whispered, "Is this Lei's family really that Lei's family?"
Her voice was very soft, almost drowned by the cheers and drums outside, but Xiao Jingxi could still hear it, very clearly.
Although he had already stopped himself from being surprised by Ren Yaoqi, he still couldn't help being more surprised every time. He looked at Ren Yaoqi very complicatedly, and even Xiao Jinglin, who had been staring out the window, turned her head to look at her.
"Why did you say that?" Xiao Jingxi asked.
"I guessed it." Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi very calmly.
She really guessed, without evidence.
The Lei family has accumulated wealth rapidly over the past ten years, and the help of the Yanbei Palace must be indispensable for this, just like the Han family. However, during the chat with his grandmother Rong before, Ren Yaoqi felt that the Dao Lei family was different from the Han family. Although the Lei family also had many shops, the most important thing was that he maintained the habits of an ancient family. They are not as "diligent" as the masters of the Han family, they do not personally manage the shops and properties, although the head of the Lei family seems to be very capable. Maybe it was his decision in the dark, but on the surface it was the stewards who were in charge.
Ren Yaoqi dared to bet that the two Lei brothers must be proficient in the so-called "Six Arts of a Gentleman", although most of these things are useless if they learn them.
The Lei family gave her the feeling that they wanted to make good use of the name of their ancient family. With the previous family history of the Lei family, it was only a matter of time before the Yun family would replace the Yun family as the number one family in Yanbei.
Hitting a snake and hitting seven inches, although Ren Yaoqi is not very familiar with the Han family, but she knows the Han family's methods against opponents.
Therefore, if the Han family wants to easily solve the threat of the Lei family, the only way is for the Lei family to "do not have a good name and a bad word."
"Unfortunately, this Lei's family is that Lei's family." Xiao Jingxi said slowly with unclear meaning.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help frowning upon hearing this.
Did she guess wrong?
"But...you're not all wrong." Xiao Jingxi said slowly, and his calm and gentle smile returned to his face, but this smile made Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but want to punch him, give him a punch. Gone.
Although Ren Yaoqi's face was still gentle and gentle, but Xiao Jingxi seemed to hear Ren Yaoqi's gritted teeth, for some reason, he felt a little comfortable and happy in his heart, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but tinge a little playful.
However, Xiao Jingxi's inexplicable complacency did not last long, Xiao Jinglin suddenly interjected: "Lei Ting's grandmother is just an outsider."
Xiao Jinglin's gaze was still outside, she only pointed the back of her head at the two of them, and her words were also flat.
As if all she had said was "too windy on the river." He didn't feel at all that he had said something remarkable, and he didn't feel that he was uncomfortable in dismantling his brother's platform.
The smile on Xiao Jingxi's face froze.
Ren Yaoqi blinked slowly, turned her head to look at Xiao Jinglin who was calmly revealing the answer without looking back, then glanced at Xiao Jingxi again, and then burst out laughing out of place.
Then she was surprised to find that the second young master Xiao, who was as tall and unattainable as a fairy, was elegant, elegant and magnificent, and a faint red glow slowly emerged from the base of his ears.
The smile on Ren Yaoqi's face also froze.
At this time, the Second Young Master Xiao had a handsome face, and the expression on his face was as calm as ever, but it was smudged with a layer of pink color, which was weird no matter how you looked at it.
Ren Yaoqi coughed lightly, lowered her head, and carefully looked at the tea bowl in her hand, as if a flower suddenly bloomed on it.
Regardless of looking at Xiao Jingxi, Ren Yaoqi tried hard not to put a smile on her face, and put her mind on the affairs of Lei's family, so as to cover up the embarrassment for Second Young Master Xiao.
She didn't want to really mess with this guy.
Xiao Jinglin said that the grandmother of the Patriarch of the Lei family was just an outhouse.
The more famous the family, the more they pay attention to the continuation of the bloodline, and the most unbearable thing is to mix up the bloodline. Therefore, the real famous families generally would not recognize the children born in the outer room, because it is impossible to prove whether they are blood or not.
What's more, a family with a deep foundation is generally flourishing and has many heirs, and there will never be a lack of one or two heirs of unknown origin. Even if the family is really weak, there are still clans. At this time, clan heirs are more reliable than wild species of unknown origin.
The jokes made by the Ren family only exposed the shallow foundation of the Ren family, and it would only make people laugh out loud.
Even if the father of the Patriarch of the Lei family is a concubine born of a girl, he can be regarded as a legitimate heir of the Lei family's direct line, after all, he was born in the second sect. It's a pity that it happened to be born in the outer room.
Now Ren Yaoqi knows how the Lei family suffered such a complete defeat.
The Yanbei Palace knew the Lei family well, but Xiao Jingxi also said that the Yanbei Palace would not intervene.
The sound of gongs and drums was still on the river. Judging by the commotion, the second round was about to end. The three people on the boat looked at each other and no one spoke.
Seeing that the dragon boat of Yanbei Prince's Mansion had reached the finish line, and the second dragon boat was about to qualify, the accident happened at this moment.
Ren Yaoqi only felt a sudden loud noise of the ground shaking, and the water surface was shaken several meters, and the water curtain blurred the vision.
Then the water mist rushed over, and Ren Yaoqi didn't have time to feel whether she was cold, because the big ship she was on shook violently.
All the decorations on the boat were tilted to the other side, Ren Yaoqi felt that she was about to be thrown out, she couldn't help but exclaimed, and then was stabilized by a strong arm. However, there was only a low table with tea set and snacks in front of them, and it was not fixed on the boat, and there was nothing to stabilize their bodies, so Ren Yaoqi fell to the ground together with the man.
The tea and snacks on the low table were thrown down all at once. Ren Yaoqi closed her eyes subconsciously, but felt that those things did not fall on her. She opened her eyes, and she met a pair of deep and quiet pupils like spots of paint.
Still can't help staying up all night...
It’s finally time to make progress… ^^~
