MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 458 rattle

  Chapter 458 Rattle Drum

  Even last year when he heard his daughter tear off King Kaiyang's belt in the street, Governor Luo couldn't control his accelerated heartbeat like now.

  The secret that is pressed deep in my heart is enough to make my heart tremble.

  Looking at Luo Sheng's casual smile, Governor Luo calmed down, and said with a straight face, "Sheng'er, don't talk nonsense."

Luo Sheng looked surprised: "Father, don't you think it's strange that the former Zhennan King had only one young son, and the new Zhennan King looks similar to Si Nan. It's fine if Si Nan has nothing to do with the Zhennan Palace, you can It's a coincidence, but Si Nan's family used to be the servants of Zhennan Prince's Mansion, so I'm afraid it can't be regarded as a coincidence..."

  Luo Dadu heard with a heavy heart.

  My daughter is getting smarter, which is very stressful.

  Luo Sheng leaned over: "Father, do you think you might have made a mistake? The new King of Zhennan is actually Si Nan's brother, and the real orphan of the former King of Zhennan is someone else—"

   "Sheng'er!" Chief Governor Luo stopped Luo Sheng's words.

  Luo Sheng looked at Governor Luo aggrievedly.

  Luo Dadu calmed his face, cleared his throat and said: "Sheng'er, you can't talk nonsense, the new king of Zhennan was appointed by the emperor."

  Luo Sheng pursed his lips: "The words I said to my father did not reach the emperor's ears."

  Governor Luo thought about it, his stern expression became more relaxed, and he said earnestly: "Although this is the case, don't think about it. The matter of the Zhennan Palace has nothing to do with our family."

  Luo Sheng chuckled: "My daughter just saw that the new Zhennan King and Si Nan looked alike, so I was curious to discuss it. Of course, the matter of Zhennan Prince's Mansion has nothing to do with our family."

  Speaking of this, she glanced suspiciously at Governor Luo: "It's father, why are you so nervous?"

  Luo Dadu smiled dryly: "Why are you nervous as a father? You girl likes to mess around."

  Why did you change the subject just now?

   Forget it, it’s better to switch back.

  Governor Luo Dadu was suffering from a headache, so he heard Luo Sheng say, "If other people also find the dead faces of the new Zhennan King and his daughter, will they think about it?"

"Si Nan went to the mansion a few years ago. Except for our family members and some people from Jinlinwei who have seen him, outsiders should not notice this. Sheng'er, don't think so much." Luo Dadu said so, determined The idea is to beat a group of people.

  Luo Sheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

  Although no one wants to change the identity of the real and fake Bao'er more than her, now is not the time.

  The reason why Emperor Yong'an returned the throne to the Zhennan Palace was because everyone knew that the orphan of the Zhennan King was still alive, and it was only natural to return the throne after the Zhennan Palace was wronged. But if someone made a fuss about the suspicious identity of the new King of Zhennan, I'm afraid it would be in line with Emperor Yong'an's wishes. At that time, the throne would be taken back as a matter of course, and the new King of Zhennan could be punished on the grounds that he pretended to be the blood of the former King of Zhennan, so as to avoid future troubles.

  Before Luo Chen's identity is revealed to the public, she will try her best to ensure that the boy's identity is stable.

   It is actually not her who can do this, but Governor Luo.

  As Governor Luo said just now, Si Nan entered the Governor's Mansion a few years ago, and almost all the people who have seen him are related to Governor Luo.

   And this is the purpose of Luo Sheng's visit to Governor Luo's study.

   "Understood, I'm going to play with my brother." Luo Sheng responded casually, and exited the study.

  The cold wind blows outside the house, the banana leaves in front of the window have withered, and the wintersweet is quietly blooming in the corner.

  Luo Sheng looked back and sighed softly.

  If Luo Chen's identity is revealed to the public, the matter of keeping the blood of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion from being kept by the Governor-General of Luo will not be concealed. This will undoubtedly be a disaster for the Luo Mansion. And how to prove Luo Chen's true identity is also a difficult problem.

  The road ahead is long and full of thorns.

  Luo Sheng went straight to Luo Chen's place.

  Luo Chen was resting, when he heard the boy report that the girl had come, he got up and went to bed: "Please come in."

  Why is Luo Sheng not in the restaurant at this time?

  He also wanted to go to the wine shop, but he felt ashamed when he saw Luo Sheng staring at the new Zhennan king stupidly. He drank two glasses of wine in a fit of anger, and then became a little dizzy.

  Luo Chen waited for Luo Sheng to come in with a stern face, but didn't take the initiative to speak.

   "Did it bother you to rest?" Luo Sheng walked over, although he said so, there was no trace of embarrassment on his face.

  Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth: "Is something wrong with sister?"

  Luo Sheng sat down, smiled and said: "It's nothing serious, I just thought you were at home and came to play with you."

  Luo Chen pressed down the corners of his upturned lips, and said reservedly: "It's not a child anymore, what's the fun."

  Luo Sheng curved his lips and smiled: "My brother grew up in Jinsha, I really don't know what you played when you were young, did you play mud with your cousin?"

  Luo Chen was silent.

  How did Luo Sheng come up with such a naive topic?

  But Luo Sheng was so interested in him when he was young, probably because he cared about him.

  The boy frowned and replied: "Look at my cousin, they climbed trees to dig out bird eggs, went down to the river to catch fish..."

  Luo Sheng listened patiently, interjecting a few words from time to time, and the siblings gradually opened up the conversation.

   "Has brother ever played rattle?" Luo Sheng seemed to ask inadvertently.

   "Of course I played."

"what does it look like?"

  Luo Chen looked at Luo Sheng with the eyes of an idiot: "Children over two years old don't play rattles, how can I remember?"

  Is there anything special about the rattle?

   "Didn't my younger brother keep the toys from his childhood?"

  Luo Chen took a deep look at Luo Sheng, then shook his head: "No."

  After hearing this answer, Luo Sheng couldn't tell how disappointed he was, so he chatted quietly for a while and got up to leave.

   She wasn't sure whether the half of the Suzaku Token was in Luo Chen's hands, so it was a test for Luo Chen to mention the rattle drum right today.

  Try it out, maybe there will be surprises, even if there is no loss, there is no loss.

  After Luo Sheng left, Luo Chen thought about it, and ordered the servant to go to the small warehouse to get a sandalwood box.

   Not long after, Fu Song came over with a wooden box in his arms, and put it on the table under Luo Chen's signal.

  Luo Chen opened the wooden box himself, and the box was full of children's stuff: kites with broken strings, faded doll whistles, diabolos with cracks...

  Looking at these gadgets, Luo Chen's first thought was that he had played with them before?

   Then, he reached out and pushed aside the objects piled on top.

   At the bottom of the box lies a slender rattle with an apricot-yellow head and red strings tied on both sides with huge round pearls as drumsticks.

  He doesn't remember whether he has ever played with this rattle, but he knows that there is such a toy in the sandalwood box where he stored his childhood toys.

  He lied to Luo Sheng.

  Based on his understanding of Luo Sheng, if he said yes, she would definitely ask for it without hesitation.

  He wanted to see what was strange about this rattle first, and Luo Sheng would specifically mention it.

   Staring at the rattle lying at the bottom of the box for a long time, Luo Chen reached out and took it out for a closer look.

  The boy turned the handle of the drum lightly, and the pearl at the end of the rope hit the drum surface, making a thumping sound.
