Chapter 61: Doubts
Wen Cheng got up very early today, and had a nightmare last night, but he couldn't remember exactly what the dream was. It's just that when she woke up, she was already soaked with sweat, and her forehead was a reminder of the nightmare she had last night. After the maids waited for the wash, Wen Cheng took a walk in the courtyard. For the sake of the fetus in the womb, even if she is not in the mood now, she still has to move.
From the beginning to the present, Wen Chengdu was a little uneasy, and for some reason there was a feeling of going up and down inexplicably. This situation lasted for a long time, and it did not improve until Wencheng had breakfast.
"What about my father and my brother?" didn't see King An and Chen Kang, and Wen Cheng's uneasy feeling became more and more obvious. Suddenly, I remembered that King An said yesterday that he would go to the Prime Minister's Mansion, could it be that something happened?!
Thinking of this, Wen Cheng was a little restless, and before breakfast had started, he hurriedly got up and rushed towards King An's study. There was no shadow of King An in the study, and Wen Cheng went to King An's bedroom again, but he didn't see it. Seeing this, the maid who accompanied her couldn't help but say, "Why don't you want to see your son there?" ”
"Right...... Right, right! Wen Cheng hurriedly walked towards Chen Kang's courtyard when he heard this, but as soon as he walked outside the courtyard, he saw several guards guarding in front of Chen Kang's courtyard.
"The prince has an order, no one is allowed to enter, the county lord waits."
It seemed that Chen Kang was fine, Wen Cheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and when he calmed down a little, he immediately said to the guards: "You go in and report it, and say that my brother has something." ”
The two guards at the door looked at each other when they heard this, hesitated for a moment, nodded and said to Wen Cheng: "County Lord, wait a minute." After speaking, he went in to inform Chen Kang.
In Chen Kang's study......
Today, the sky outside is dark, and the doors and windows in Chen Kang's study are tightly closed, blocking the already small amount of sunlight outside, and the entire study is extremely dark. There was no light in the study, but one person could be seen standing in the study, and two people kneeling on the ground, and the remaining one was lying there without moving. Undoubtedly, the one standing is Chen Kang, the kneeling one is Tao'er and her brother, and the other is ...... It is the dead King An......
The study was too dim to be able to see the expression on Chen Kang's face. But Tao'er and the others were very close to Chen Kang, even if the room was dim, they could still see the look on Chen Kang's face. I saw that Chen Kang's face seemed to be in great pain, and the expression on his face was forbearant and painful. Tao'er and they have already told Chen Kang the cause of King An's death, and Chen Kang is different from Wencheng. Chen Kang can bear it, King An is dead, and Wen Cheng is dead. Even if he hates Chen Yongyu to the bone now, he has to endure it. If the truth is really as Tao'er said, Chen Yongyu will be the emperor of Chen State in the future, then they can't fight him no matter what......
Chen Kang was full of sadness at this time, he felt that something was wrong today, but who would have thought that people who were fine yesterday would be separated by yin and yang today......
"At this time, you must not let the county lord know......" for a long time, only to hear Chen Kang say in a dumb voice.
Tao'er has admired Chen Kang for many years, and now seeing him in such pain, her heart is extremely uncomfortable. Hearing Chen Kang's words, he choked up and said: "Don't worry, the slave and maid will not sue the ...... of the county lord even if they are killed" After speaking, before he had time to be sad, he heard the voice of the guard outside......
"Lord Shizi, the county lord is here and says he wants to see you."
When Tao'er heard this, she wiped the tears on her face in a panic. And Chen Kang ...... He took a deep breath and said to the guards outside the door, "I'll go out right away." After speaking, he squatted down, looked at Tao'er and said in a deep voice, "Father...... I'll leave the rest to you...... I, an unfilial son, can't take care of his old man's funeral with my own hands...... I hope that in the future, my father will not blame me when I get to the netherworld......" After finishing speaking, he gently patted Tao'er on the shoulder and went out......
Wen Cheng waited outside Chen Kang's courtyard, and after a while, Chen Kang came out. Seeing this, Wen Cheng hurriedly approached Chen Kang's side and asked, "Brother, where did my father go today, why wasn't he there?" ”
These words made Chen Kang's already extremely painful heart even more painful, he reluctantly hooked the corners of his mouth, raised his hand and gently stroked Wen Cheng's hair, and said softly: "Bian Sai is important, my father left overnight last night, and when I saw that you were sleeping soundly, I asked me to sue you today." ”
Wen Cheng didn't doubt it when he heard this, nodded, and just wanted to say something, a vague bloody breath entered her nose. If it was okay before, Wen Cheng's people who are used to the battlefield are not very sensitive to this smell. But now that she was pregnant, she couldn't stand the smell the most, and before she could ask anything, she quickly turned around and vomited under the tree on the side.
Seeing this, Chen Kang sniffed his clothes lightly, and then his brows immediately furrowed. Because he was hiding something in his heart, he didn't pay attention to it just now. Now seeing Wen Cheng like this, he realized that he had been contaminated with blood......
Chen Kang took off the coat on his body, and then instructed the maid next to him to take a new dress and put it on, before he walked to Wen Cheng's side and gently patted her back and asked, "Is there anything uncomfortable?" ”
Wen Cheng shook his head, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid and wiped his mouth, and then said, "No...... It's just brother, you're ...... How does it smell like blood? ”
Chen Kang's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "It may be that the guards came to me this morning, and I have changed them just now." ”
"Hmm......" Although Chen Kang said so, Wen Cheng still felt that something seemed to be wrong in his heart. Sneaking a glance at Chen Kang, he didn't feel anything wrong. She was already a little bored today, so she didn't bother to think about it anymore.
"If you're not feeling well, go back to your room and rest, and I'll find a doctor to come and take a look later."
Wen Cheng nodded and didn't say anything more. Since her brother and father are fine, she has nothing to worry about.
"Then I'll go back first...... By the way, how long will it take for Momo to come back? ”
"I don't know much about this, I think it's going to be soon." The corners of Chen Kang's mouth kept smiling, Wen Cheng looked at Chen Kang like this, and that weird feeling rose again.
"Brother, what were you doing in the study just now?" Chen Kang was stunned when he heard this, and replied with a smile: "What can you do in the study, it must be reading." ”
"How did the smell of blood come from my brother? Didn't you let the soldiers go to your study? When the words came out, Wen Chengcai suddenly understood where the place he had always felt was wrong.
