The vehicle drove slowly in the manor.

There was an almost frozen dead silence and silence in the car.

Bai Qing looked at Li Xi's peaceful face in a daze, unable to say a word for a long time.

The question of Li Tianlan's life experience.

This may be the only problem she has worried about or even feared in recent years.

There is no way to describe her inner feelings at all.

In the past few years, Li Tianlan and the Dongcheng family have gotten closer and closer. Bai Qingqian feels very happy, but also a little apprehensive. She doesn't know how to face this child who is gradually returning, and she dare not think about it after he knows her life experience. What kind of reaction will there be.

complain? resentment? indifferent? Or something else.

She thought about this question again and again, watching Li Tianlan getting closer to the answer, she was looking forward to this day, but also dreading it.

She knew what Li Tianlan had noticed.

Maybe it was the clues of the past years, maybe it was the undisguised preference of the Dongcheng family and the Bai family for him that made him aware of something.

But Li Tianlan didn't say anything, and even occasionally showed an attitude of rejecting this topic.

But other than that, his attitude towards the Dongcheng family has not changed much. He calls Minister Dongcheng Invincible and himself Auntie. He is polite and respectful, but there is no obvious alienation.

Bai Qingqian felt distressed, but her heart gradually settled down.

She thinks that Li Tianlan may not be able to accept these things for a while, and she thinks that the time is not ripe enough, so the truth is clearly in front of her eyes, but both sides turn a blind eye to it, maybe in a few years, or in a few more years, she will slow down Slowly tell Li Tianlan the truth, in the most peaceful way...

But Bai Qingqian didn't expect that Lixi would directly pierce this layer of window paper that almost doesn't exist but has great significance.

Dongcheng Wudi held the steering wheel tightly and smiled wryly.

He has no way to accuse Lixi of anything, and Lixi has no obligation to keep them secret, and it seems that there is nothing to keep secret...

"he......"

After a while, Bai Qingqian's chaotic voice sounded: "Uh...um...did he say something?"

"No.

"

Li Xi shook his head: "He already knew about it."

"so..."

Bai Qingqian's body trembled slightly: "He still won't forgive us?"

"No."

Li Xi shook his head, thinking about the conversation with Li Tianlan: "He doesn't hate us, so there is no forgiveness. He said that neither the Li family nor the Dongcheng family have anything to do to him. He said that now In this way, it is actually very good, there is no need to deliberately explain anything.”

Li Xi was silent for a while, and then smiled softly: "He is His Majesty now, maybe he is still young in his twenties, maybe in your eyes, he is still a child, but he is indeed a man in this world now. One of the most powerful people, not even one, he stands at the pinnacle of personal force, with the rapid development of the East Palace, he also has unimaginable power and wealth, now he can almost do whatever he wants, as long as he wants , there is nothing he can't do, can't get..."

"If he had nothing when he first appeared in Huating a few years ago, maybe if you told him the truth, he would be resentful, unacceptable, and hysterical...but now he has almost everything. Today, he is Dongcheng The family and the Li family gave it to him. Standing at his height, what else can't be ignored? He didn't explain it, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know about it. Let’s not talk about it, it’s because he’s too lazy to worry about it, and he doesn’t want to embarrass us.”

"The way it is now is actually very good. If he doesn't call us parents for the time being, it doesn't mean that he is not their son."

Li Xi suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you know why he went to Kunlun City to bring Li Xi back?"

"Why?"

Dongcheng Wudi asked subconsciously.

"Not because I might recover

Strength. "

Li Xi said slowly: "Joining the East Palace is my own choice. He promised to help me to fight Gu Xingyun, just because he said that I can also be regarded as his mother."

Li Xi was silent for a while, then laughed complicatedly: "Mother-in-law, is she also a mother?"

"So, thank you very much, thank you for helping me take care of Rushi for so many years, I later found out that the Dongcheng family did a lot of things secretly after the collapse of the Li family... If it weren't for your secret action, Li's end might be It would be even worse, if it weren't for you...if it is, you probably won't be able to survive...if..."

Her voice gradually became lower and she was in a daze.

The Dongcheng family more than 20 years ago was also the most influential wealthy family in Central Continent. At that time, Dongcheng Hanguang was still the executive vice-minister of the Central Continent Military Department and one of the directors of the Central Continent Council.

Although there is an extra adverb, Zhongzhou did not have the position of standing minister at that time, so Dongcheng Hanguang's position at that time was equivalent to Dongcheng Wudi's current position, ranking third among council members, deeply rooted, and powerful. strong.

Li's collapse was too sudden.

The southeast group was turbulent, while the Gu family was struggling to rise under tremendous pressure. The Dongcheng family took action, secretly smoothing out some things and concealing some truths.

For example, Dongcheng Rushi and Li Tianlan.

For so many years, Gu Xingyun didn't even know about it. He always thought that the daughter of Li Xi and Li Kuangtu was dead.

As for Li Tianlan's origin, maybe even now he is not sure about anything.

If there was no Dongcheng family, things would not be like this at all. Even Li Xi killed it with his own hands, maybe it was really Dongcheng. How can there be a story now?

"Don't treat them as good people, they are also selfish!"

Bai Qingqian said coldly, and gave Dongcheng Wudi a hard look.

Although the relationship between husband and wife has eased, when it came to this topic, the resentment and grievance in her heart suddenly surged up, and it was not pleasing to see Dongcheng Wudi.

Dongcheng Wudi let out a dry cough, and drove the car, with a guilty conscience, the speed of the car was as slow as a turtle crawling.

In the final analysis, what happened back then was actually a transaction, purely without any other purpose.

The development of the Dongcheng family has already reached the bottleneck period or the peak period that they can reach. After the peak, it must be a stage of continuous decline, becoming the actual leader of the military. Dongcheng Hanguang can be said to have worked hard, but the wealthy group Different from other groups, this is a loose group that tends to be like an alliance, and the internal cohesion is seriously insufficient. Many times, the internal constraints are already felt before the external situation is good.

Of course, the rich family of Zhongzhou is the main body, Dongcheng, Bai, and Zou are the pillars, but other wealthy families have various relationships with the major groups. In terms of scale, the rich family is the first among the six major groups. But almost never the same sound.

Dongcheng Hanguang was not sure how far the Dongcheng family would develop after his retirement. At that time, the three pillars of the wealthy group were eagerly seeking changes, but they couldn't find any opportunities at all.

The biggest problem is that the Dongcheng family, which is the most powerful family in the military, has no real strong people at all.

At that time, the peak military power of Central Continent was also the peak military power of the Dark World, and it had been like this for hundreds of years.

The Li family and the Beihai Wang family have always been at the top of Zhongzhou's personal force.

Even if the Dongcheng family has cultivated a powerful force like Yaochi, there is no guarantee that each generation will have a master of the invincible realm, and even if someone is lucky enough to enter the invincible realm, he is still a younger brother in front of the Li family and Beihai.

Personal force often does not represent anything, but more often it clearly represents something.

The position of a god of war who protects the country can already explain some problems.

This position represents great power, but it also represents the ultimate force.

Absolute personal strength represents absolute prestige. Today's Beihai Wang family is a behemoth that has slowly transformed into a behemoth after its personal strength has reached its peak.

A true peak invincible means that in the midst of countless disputes

Confidence is related to many invisible prestige, interests, diplomatic relations and executive power. If the Dongcheng family had an invincible force that could compete with the Li family and Beihai back then, the entire Dongcheng family and even the wealthy group would go one step further and become A super-large group that can truly be on an equal footing with the Southeast Group.

The collapse of the Li family gave the Dongcheng family an opportunity.

Li Honghe needs to preserve Li Shi's last strength as another hole card.

The Dongcheng family is eager to seize this opportunity and cultivate a real top powerhouse.

Yao Chi can't cultivate such a strong man.

Lee is the most suitable candidate.

So the transaction was concluded at the moment of contact between the two parties.

The grandson of the Dongcheng family became the grandson of Li Honghe, who became Li Tianlan.

Li's granddaughter became the granddaughter of the Dongcheng family, and became Dongcheng Rushi.

For future integration, the two sides adopted the oldest but often the most effective way.

marriage.

From that moment on, the pair of male and female babies born on the same day, same month, and year have already been bonded.

Li Honghe has no reservations about Li Tianlan. All the inheritance of the Li family has been handed down and cultivated with all his strength. The Dongcheng family also has no stinginess towards Dongcheng. Both parties treat the two children as if they were their own. marry.

At that time, the power of the Li family became the power of the Dongcheng family.

The strength of the Dongcheng family will also be the cornerstone of Li's resurgence.

From that moment on, the Dongcheng family and the Li family have put their future on their two children.

That's a deal.

Up to now, the transaction has shifted slightly due to various factors, but overall, the general direction has not changed.

Li's resurgence.

With the rise of the Li family and the establishment of the East Palace, the new group will also become an important turning point for the three pillars of the wealthy group to seek changes.

Among them, Bai Qingqian, who may have suffered a lot of grievances, lost his son, and Li Tianlan, who suffered a lot since childhood.

Li Tianlan has already gained something.

What about Bai Qingqian?

Li Xi looked at Bai Qingqian in a daze, and after a long time, she stretched out her hand, held her palm, and said softly, "Thank you."

"I..."

Bai Qingqian shook her head: "I don't need to thank you, after all, Rushi is also my daughter in my heart..."

She looked straight at Lixi, with a pleading voice: "If you really want to join the East Palace... My only request is that you can help me take care of my son."

"Just like he said."

Li Xi said softly, "That's my son too."

The son-in-law is naturally also a son.

Bai Qingqian bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

"If possible, I really want to wait for Luna to wake up, and then watch them get married and see their children..."

Li Xi's voice was slightly soft.

"Luna?"

Bai Qingqian asked a question.

"ah."

Li Xi smiled: "This is the name Li Kuangtu and I gave her before he was born, Li Yueshen, but... this name is also very good."

"name..."

Bai Qingqian's eyes were in a trance.

"Tianlan, does she have a name?"

Li Xi asked tentatively.

Almost every parent chooses a name for their child before it is born.

"yes."

Li Xi's smile was a bit bitter. She and Dongcheng Wudi had naturally chosen a name for Li Tianlan back then, but things have developed to the present, and that name has almost no meaning.

Li Tianlan, after all, is Li Tianlan.

Dongcheng Wudi sighed, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a long time, he stopped the car and said softly: "We also decided on the name at that time. At that time, Qingqian was just four months pregnant."

Shaking his head, Dongcheng Wudi said, "His name is Dongcheng Huangtu."
