Chapter 190 Mother and Daughter Reunited

Xi Lan had seen that face before, and she would remember it all her life, how that man bid farewell to her, how he left the pink magnolia silver hairpin from Longjia Villa without looking back.

She was still a baby in swaddling clothes, and her memory seemed innate.

She waited for almost 18 years, thinking about the scene of saying goodbye to this person countless times, but this one was obviously unbearable for her.

But it was not without warning. When she knew that there was a master of metaphysics behind Ji's family, she secretly made up a divination for her mother. The divination said that the person she was looking for had always been by her side.

She stopped looking for it because she had already guessed that if the other party wanted to see her, he would have already appeared!

Now it's finally here!What was the reason that made him finally show up?

She fixed her eyes on the face that was obviously much older than 18 years ago, and the only pink magnolia silver hairpin on her hair, like a stone statue.

Seeing her standing still, Li Huai also realized that this woman who appeared in Ji's residence had a special relationship with her. He stretched out his hand and slowly took her wrist, and called softly: "Xi Lan..."

She came back to her senses, and the two of them stepped in together.

Ji Changqian said first: "The old man invited the prince and concubine to come over because there is an important matter to discuss."

Li Huaiping responded respectfully: "General Ji, please speak."

"I heard that the prince has a criminal evidence against the queen in his hand. I hope that the prince will hand over the criminal evidence to the old man for safekeeping!"

Hearing this, Xi Lan obviously felt that Li Huai was holding her hand slightly harder, but his voice was very calm and asked: "General Ji, what is the use of bringing this criminal evidence?"

The other party asked them to sit down, and after a moment of silence, they replied, "This is for your own good!"

"For our own good?" Xi Lan sneered, and looked over, her eyes lingering on the woman in black on the opposite side. "It's all for the benefit of others, not some ulterior purpose?"

The woman didn't look at her, she looked distant and cold.

Looking at it this way, he was nothing more than a stranger.

But it was this strange woman that she had missed for 18 years.

"The old man knows that you may have spent a lot of effort to grasp this criminal evidence, but this criminal evidence alone cannot completely bring down that person in Nishinomiya..."

Xi Lan interrupted him: "Sinners always have to pay for their sins, no matter how much the price is, it's better than doing nothing!"

Ji Changgan led tens of thousands of troops, and there were not many people who dared to interrupt him like this in this life, but his expression did not change at all, instead he showed a look of appreciating her words.

"You're right, but in this world, letting the guilty pay the price can benefit you equally. It depends on whether the person who makes the decision is smart enough."

Hearing this, Li Huai didn't say a word, he was silent, and gently stroked the black wrench on his right hand with his fingers.

After a long time, I asked, "Why don't you tell me, General Ji, what terms have you all negotiated with the queen?"

Ji Changqian sighed involuntarily, stood up, put his hands behind his back: "Do you think this old man is unwilling to bring the guilty to justice? These days, you are not the real daughter of the Ji family, the queen has long known , She used this to blackmail the old man as an exchange, if she does not agree to her, even if this crime can affect her later position, but it is not enough to affect the power of Li Quandong Palace, but at that time, she can bite back, the Ji family will undoubtedly All will suffer!"

The two of them didn't speak after hearing this.

If it is true as Ji Changqian said, it is just taking the position of queen in exchange for the safety of Ji's family.

At this time, the other party said again: "Moreover, the other party has another bargaining chip."

"what?"

"Xue Ping'an!"

Xi Lan raised her head suddenly, her eyes shocked.

So, Xue Ping'an's soul was trapped because of the empress?

She asked eagerly, "Where is Xue Pingan?"

Ji Changgan glanced at the woman in black next to him, and replied in a normal tone: "As long as you hand over that confession, you can find him today."

"Okay!" Although she was unwilling in her heart, she still agreed without thinking!

There are still many opportunities after the Nalan family is moved, but saving Xue Ping'an is the top priority.

Hearing this answer, Ji Changgan smiled with satisfaction, reached out to stroke the beard on his chin, and looked at Li Huai: "I wonder what Prince Xu thinks?"

Li Huai got up slowly, with a bit of sarcasm on his face, he said: "General Ji invited me to come here, isn't this the result that has already been decided, why bother to ask my opinion?"

It's not that he doesn't want to save Xue Ping'an, but he is displeased with Ji Changgan's outrageous behavior!
The other party smiled slightly and asked without regret: "Master Xu is blaming the old man for not discussing with you in advance?"

"How dare you?"

After finishing speaking, he took out the criminal evidence from his sleeve, put it down on the table, and asked, "Can you tell Ping An's whereabouts now?"

Ji Changqian took it over and looked at it carefully, nodded and admitted that the evidence was correct, and then looked at the woman in black.

The woman in black looked over, and also took out a folded piece of cloth from her sleeve, walked up to Xi Lan, and handed it to her.

Xi Lan was in a complicated mood, but the expression on her face was disgusted.

She has grown up so much, she has never written her emotions so directly on her face.

In the past, she would always tell herself that no matter why her mother left, she had her own reasons, and she would not hate her, but seeing her appear like this, as if she still obeyed Ji Changqian, made Xi Lan disgusted.

Abandoning husband and daughter, just for this?
The woman handed her the cloth, but she didn't take it for a long time, she just looked down at the wrinkled hands, maybe it's a common problem of Taoists like them, they all have such vicissitudes of hands, Xi Lan probably reached the other party's age, and it would be the same.

She opened it to look, it was a map, and the location of the map was exactly the Xicheng Bazaar that appeared in Xi Lan's hexagram that day. It seemed that Xue Ping'an was really there.

And the exact time is written on the silk, and you can find it if you look for it at this time, but Xue Ping'an is a ghost who has just died, and if he appeared in the market in the daytime like this, he might have been wiped out long ago, so , what object should he be posted on.

She put away the cloth and the woman had already turned around.

"You were the one who arranged for me to enter the Ji's Mansion that day, and then arrested me in Linxi Town, right?" Xi Lan finally couldn't hold back, and asked her back coldly.

The woman stopped moving. From the beginning to the end, she didn't say a word to Xi Lan. Xi Lan even wondered if she was dumb.

The woman didn't answer, just silently turned her back to her.

In fact, the answer is already obvious. If she hadn't used her hairpin as a lure back then, why would she have agreed to Ji Jinjiang's conditions to enter the palace?

Xi Lan asked puzzledly: "At the beginning, why didn't you show up directly?"

As long as her mother shows up, Xi Lan believes that she will agree no matter what the other party needs her help to do, unless it is against the law.

"Why do you want to count me in this way?"

Abandoning her, she can let go of the past, but it is really hard for her to be treated like this by her own mother.

"I'm sorry for you..." Finally, the woman spoke, and the voice was older and weaker than Xi Lan had imagined.

It was as if it came out of the mouth of an old man who was dying.

"Hehe! No more?" She smiled wryly. Is this a confession to her?But this confession was not enough to smooth out the lack in her heart.

Silence again.

A woman who abandoned her for 18 years and left her for [-] years. When I saw her again, nothing but calculations left her silent!
What else can she ask?

"My lord, let's go!" The truth is cruel, she came all the way to find it, but maybe her father already knew about it.

At this moment, she was walking towards the gate, and a person walked in from outside the hall.Xi Lan saw that it was Ji Jinjiang, but she didn't take a closer look. No one in Ji's family can be trusted.

She finally understood why her father wanted her to stay away from Ji Changqian, and the reason why she and Ji Jinhua looked alike. Maybe they had some ulterior relationship!

Thinking of this, a ball of fire was burning in her heart, she really wasn't worth it for her father!
"This is yours, give it back to you!" When Ji Jinjiang walked past him, the other handed her something.

She stopped and looked down, it was the hairpin she had brought from Tianling Town.

Whenever she missed her mother, she took it out to look at it, and also hoped that one day she could use this hairpin to find her mother, so she kept it by her side day and night, and never left her body.

Goodbye now, she still reached out to take it.

But when he held it in his hand, he broke it hard, pulled out the jade-pink petals inlaid on it a few times, threw it on the ground, and replied coldly: "Do you have any gold and silver jewelry in the palace? I don't want this kind of defective products." Send it to the eyes of this princess!"

After finishing speaking, she came out angrily without waiting for Li Huai.

Going on a rampage all the way to the outside, and knocked down a few maidservants on the way, she just didn't stop.

Finally arrived at a corner of the garden where there was no one, she stood by the wall of withered roses, raised her head and took a deep breath.

Growing up like this, I have never been so self-willed before, just because the 18 years of expectation in the past have resulted in such an unbearable result.

Li Huai quickly caught up with her, seeing her staring at the wall in the sun with hair dazed, he walked over lightly, hugged her waist from behind, put his cheek on her shoulder, and whispered in her ear: "Maybe she has some difficulties..."
