Swallowing the Good Fortune

Shake the sky city, the Chen family.

The entire Chen family was immersed in grief.

The Chen family all wore plain clothes, because the young master of the Chen family, Chen Su'an's eldest son, Chen Xiao passed away.

The funeral was very decent, even Su Mingrui, the second young master of the Su family, came and had a secret talk with Chen Su'an, no one knew exactly what was said.

At night, Chen Su'an and Chen Si, the old steward of the Chen family, stood in the mourning hall. Chen Si said, "Master, do you want me to take action?"

Chen Su'an didn't say anything, Chen Si stayed in the Chen family for most of his life, and he was a servant of the Chen family when he was young. At that time, Chen Si's name was still Qian Si, and the Chen family name was bestowed on him by the old Patriarch of the Chen family.

For so many years, Chen Su'an has known everything about Chen Si. Even Chen Su'an's bedside person may not be as useful as the steward of the Chen family.

This time, Chen Si was really angry.

That child, Chen Xiao, has been by Chen Si's side since he was a child, and he learned most of his skills from Chen Si. Chen Si has no heirs himself, so he completely regards Chen Xiao as his own son.

Chen Su'an was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Luo Yi must die, but the Chu family can't move for the time being, they can exert pressure, but they can't take any real actions."

Chen Si frowned: "Is it the meaning of the Su family?"

Chen Su'an nodded, and said: "The Su family's attitude towards the Chu family is still in the wait-and-see period, because of the relationship between that Chu Mengli and that heavenly appraiser Cao Mo, the Chu family has a life-saving talisman, but Su Mingrui I have also said this time, this deadlock will always be broken.”

Chen Si folded his sleeves with both hands, bent his body slightly, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly spoke a rambling sentence: "I heard that Chu Tiankuo's birthday is coming soon?"

Chen Su'an leaned down, and there was an iron basin on the ground, and a flame was burning in the iron basin, burning some ghost coins.

Then he threw out another handful of Ming coins, looked at the ignited flames, and said in a cold tone: "The intention of the Su family is to use this excuse to put pressure on the Chu family. manner."

"If that person really helped the Su family, it means that that person and that Chu Mengli really have an unusual relationship."

"In this way... Luo Yi's life and death are not so important."

Chen Si also leaned down and picked out the unburned coins in the brazier, "Is this what Patriarch Su meant?"

Chen Suan nodded.

Su Mingrui came to him today to talk about this matter, the Chen family is just a pawn in this whole game of chess.

Those who fall are those big men who cover the sky with one hand.

The Su family intends to let the Chen family use this matter to put pressure on the Chu family at the Chu family's birthday banquet in a few days.

At that time, it will depend on whether that Mr. Cao will stand on the sidelines, or roll up his trouser legs and wade through this muddy water.

If you look at it from the sidelines, it means that the relationship between Chu Mengli and Cao Mo is just a chance meeting and cannot withstand scrutiny.

In this way, it is up to the Chen family to discuss with the Chu family how they want.

But Luo Yi cannot be killed, but he can make his life worse than death.

If it was the second case, Mr. Cao, the heaven appraiser, really waded through this muddy water and saved the Chu family, which meant that Chu Mengli, the concubine of the Chu family, had a very close relationship with Cao Mo.

In this way, the Chu family can't move, but it doesn't matter whether Luo Yi is dead or alive.

Even if there is an agreement between the two dynasties, the marriage contract is in the body, the body of the proton, and the three-year period, these...

All can be ignored.

The Chen family, kill when you want to kill.

Once Luo Yi dies, Chu Mengli will lose her marriage contract. If that Mr. Cao has any unreasonable thoughts about Chu Mengli at that time, there will be someone from above who will match her up.

Although these big figures have great authority, they all pay attention to a teacher who is famous, and it is justifiable.

To put it simply, once Luo Yi dies, Chu Mengli, a woman who no longer has a marriage contract, can be used by the Batian Dynasty again!

To make friends with this Mr. Cao!

At that time, even if Luo Chao got the news, he would not dare to say even half a word!

Luo Tianchen also has to carefully weigh the weight of a celestial appraiser.

Chen Si couldn't help sighing: "This game of chess, even though I have known the chess moves in advance, still makes people feel cold all over."

Chen Su'an said abruptly: "The chess moves we know are limited to this. There may be more masterful moves in the future, or even a certain unreasonable move. The final ending...may be the most frightening."

Chen Su'an looked at the flickering flames, and a trace of deep fear flashed in his eyes.

"Perhaps...the Su family is just a pawn."

Chen Si's complexion changed drastically. If even the Su family were chess pieces, then who would be the real master of chess? !

Chen Su'an rubbed the space between his eyebrows. He was just guessing. After all, the status of the Chen family was limited. Being in this game of chess was like being in a thick fog. No one knew what the future would be like.

But Chen Su'an knew one thing, Luo Yi would surely die.

No matter who the chess player is, no matter whether Cao Mo makes a move or not, Luo Yi's end will not be good.

If Cao Mo didn't protect the Chu family, Luo Yi's life would be better than death, and he would die after three years of hard work.

If he makes a move, Luo Yi will die immediately. The weight of a master of appreciating heaven is enough for Batian Dynasty to take the initiative to tear up the agreement with Luo Dynasty.

Even... the Batian Dynasty may declare war on the Luo Dynasty again.

And what the Chen family wanted, or what Chen Su'an wanted, was Luo Yi's...

Life.

This night, the two Chen family members who were at the peak of the Soul Condensation Realm were all tightly suppressing the murderous aura that had been smoldering in their chests for a long time...

A conspiracy against the Chu family and Luo Yi has slowly shrouded everyone's heads like a spider web.

-

Luo Yi sat in a small courtyard, pulling the parents with the two old couple next door.

Luo Yi raised his hand to clink a glass with the old man, and said with a smile, "Why don't you see your son?"

The old man's hand holding the wine suddenly trembled, paused, and smiled again.

But he didn't speak.

The old woman put some food in Luo Yi's bowl, and said with a kind smile, "If our family is still alive, it should be your age, it seems... a little older than you."

Luo Yi was taken aback, and only then did he realize that his words were wrong. He was about to say something when he saw the old man smile:

"Let's not mention the worthless boy, he joined the army, joined the army, lost the battle, and lost his life."

"It's just such a small thing, it's not worth mentioning."

But Luo Yi clearly saw that the old man who had been sipping his drink just now took a big sip this time.

Luo Yi's heart was sour, he took a sip of wine, and asked casually: "Master, may I ask which army your son served in?"

The old man had previously said that it was not worth mentioning, but every time he said this, there was always a hint of pride in his brows and eyes.

"My unpromising son didn't disgrace his father too much, he was in the army for many years, he got a little reputation, joined the Mofeng Ranger Army, and became a school lieutenant. "

"We only found out later that this brat was ordered to defend Xihe on the second day after he became a captain. Eight hundred cavalry troops forcibly resisted the three charges of Wuling cavalry from the Luo Dynasty! He defended Xihe for two days and one night! "

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but took a big sip, his face was full of energy, as if he had been on the battlefield.

But Luo Yi's hand suddenly trembled, and most of the wine in the wine bowl spilled out.

The cavalry, he knew.

In other words, it was Luo Yi who destroyed this cavalry army.

That Wuling cavalry is his own army.

The battle in Xihe was fought by Luo Yi himself. The Mofeng Ranger Army really defended for two days and one night. There were 800 people. At the end of the fight, not one was left.

At that time, Luo Yi had already guessed that there were no reinforcements behind this cavalry army.

They were ordered to defend to the death, but the higher-ups asked them to die to delay time.

Maybe the superiors promised them that follow-up reinforcements would arrive in Xihe within a day, maybe these 800 people were still waiting for reinforcements before they died, or maybe they knew that there were no reinforcements behind them.

nothing left.

They could have retreated originally, as long as they retreated from Xihe, they would have a chance of survival.

But in the end, no one retreated.

In that Xihe offensive and defensive battle, Luo Yi used 800 Wuling left cavalry troops to charge and kill three times. It took two days and one night to kill all [-] people!

Luo Yi picked up the wine bowl, but his hands were still shaking.

He put it down again, but he didn't dare to raise his head to look at the two old men.

Luo Yi stood up suddenly, bowed deeply, lowered his head and dared not look at the two old men, and said in a hoarse voice:

"The boy is too strong to drink, and he is afraid that he will lose his composure when drunk, so I will let it go this time. I will bring some good wine another day, and then I will visit the second elder."

After speaking, Luo Yi walked out of the small courtyard in a little panic.

"Look at you, old wine bug, if you insist on drinking so much, the next time someone dislikes you, you won't come!"

"Tsk! I didn't drink much! This kid can't drink too much!"

The old couple bickered for a few more words, and then there was the sound of cleaning up the dishes.

Suddenly, the old woman asked: "Old man, you read a lot, and you say that you are fighting wars, fighting back and forth, is there a right or wrong for winning or losing?"

There was silence in the small courtyard for a while, and then the old man's voice sounded again.

"Marching and fighting, two countries are at war, there are always winners and losers, and it is difficult to distinguish right from wrong."

"No one is right, no one is right."

Luo Yi was standing outside the small courtyard at this moment, leaning against the wall, looking up at the sky, wondering what he was thinking...

"Right or wrong..."

I used to be young and frivolous, with fresh clothes and angry horses, as if I only cared about winning or losing.

Never talk about right or wrong.

It seems... the one who survived was right.

-

The autumn wind is bleak, and the wind in late autumn is even more lonely.

Luo Yi and Wei Qing have moved here for several days without knowing it, everything is very normal, the only thing that makes Luo Yi feel a little unusual is the reaction of the Chen family.

Chen Xiao was killed by him, but there seemed to be no movement in the Chen family.

He didn't go to the Chu family to ask for an explanation, let alone ask the Chu family to hand him over, and no one even talked about it.

But the more this is the case, the more it makes Luo Yi feel that something is wrong.

Just as she was about to have a few drinks, she suddenly found Chu Mengli standing at the door at some point.

Luo Yi put down the two jars of fine peach blossom wine in his hand, looked at the door and smiled, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

Chu Mengli looked a little absent-minded. After stepping into the small courtyard, she sat on a stone bench and said nothing.

Luo Yi frowned, what happened?

Could it be that the Chen family made some moves?
