History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 207

After nightfall, everything is silent, and the capital, which has been tossing for two nights, is rarely settled down, but there is no undercurrent in the tranquility.Lin Lang turned over two pages of the book but couldn't read it. After finally waiting for Xu Lang to come back, she rushed over with her shoes and asked Jin Xiu, Huang Ying and others to arrange meals.

Sure enough, Xu Lang came back hungry. Although he was extremely exhausted, now that he had food to fill his stomach, and his wife was by his side, his spirit was much better.

He has spent a lot of energy in the past two days. During the day, he was entangled with other things, and he also messed up his lunch. Now he is so hungry that he looks like he is gobbling it.Lin Lang looked amused, Xu Lang turned his head to look at her, "What are you laughing at?"

"Is this how you eat outside? It seems like you are afraid that someone will snatch it away." Lin Lang smiled back, but she still helped pick up the vegetables and scoop the soup, looking like a virtuous little daughter-in-law.

"It's good to be able to eat enough when you're out in the army, and you've gradually developed this habit." Xu Lang put down his bowl and chopsticks, "Aren't you curious about things outside?"

"Of course I'm curious." Lin Lang moved over to sit beside him, "And I still have a lot of questions, but I can't disturb your meal."

"Things outside are almost settled, but the emperor was killed by Zhu Yong, and the courtiers are arguing fiercely at this time." Xu Lang quickly finished eating, rinsed his mouth and wiped his mouth, and dragged Lin Lang to the couch, "Guess what?" What did they say?"

"A country cannot be without a king for a day. Of course, the most urgent thing is to have a new leader. I'm afraid they are arguing about whether the world should change their surname?" Lin Lang curled up in Xu Lang's arms, wrapping her hands around his waist, "Among the courtiers Headed by the privy envoy Zhao Hui and my uncle, I know the temperament of my uncle. At this time, he should act safely. Whether he is sincere or not, he will say that he will choose someone from the remnants of the Jun family to be the emperor; Zhao Hui... It should be to let the Xu family take charge of the government?"

"It's a good guess." Xu Lang didn't get close to Lin Lang for a long time, and hugged her sideways, rubbing his lips against her forehead.

"What does the Duke of the country say?" Lin Lang was a little cautious.

"Father is responsible for guarding the capital, and the rest will be handed over to the courtiers." Xu Lang looked down at Lin Lang.

The Xu family is famous for its loyalty and bravery, so Xu Fengxian is naturally not in a hurry to stand out at this time, so it's not surprising that he would say that.Lin Lang hummed, trying to avoid the topic, but Xu Lang smiled and said, "What do you think we should do?"

"Jun's family is exhausted, and changing someone may not be able to make a difference. What's more, with Zhu Yong's mass murder, the only ones left now are some inconspicuous county kings and county heads?" Lin Lang said bluntly.I used to think that the Xu family might not have the intention to seize the world, but now it seems that they deliberately let Zhu Yong enter the city to massacre the royal family, and then killed Zhu Yong in the name of "clearing thieves". .

Xu Lang smiled and said nothing.After all, the behavior of the Xu family is there. Although it is not too obvious, some discerning people outside can see Xu Fengxian's ambitions, and it is even more impossible to hide it from the family.It's just that Lin Lang's reaction surprised him, neither shocked nor delighted, as if it was a very normal thing.

A 12-year-old girl, facing such a major event as a change of owner in the world, where does she have such determination?

"Lin Lang, I'm curious about something." Xu Lang looked down at her, "How did you know Chen Hao?"

"Chen Hao? Why are you asking this?" Lin Lang felt guilty.
