Chapter 145: Suspicion
He cried with joy, and the whole person was relieved. Nothing is more important to a mother than the health of her children.
Shen Jinglun looked at her intently and explained in a low voice: "I lied that Nian Xi was seriously ill, but I didn't want him to become the target of Shui Ting and others. The less people know about it, the safer it is, so I've been hiding it from you. Except for the maid next to Nian Xi and Dr. Xiao, who has been pretending to treat him, even his mother-in-law doesn't know. ”
He Huan lowered his head to wipe his tears and nodded indiscriminately. As long as her Nianxi doesn't have anything to do, other things don't matter at all.
"You don't blame me?" Shen Jinglun examines He Huan.
"What do you blame?" He Huan's voice was choked.
"Blame me for hurting you." Shen Jinglun's voice was low, and when he saw He Huan shaking his head, he sighed in a low voice: "I thought that if I lived in Jizhou, everything in the capital would have nothing to do with me, but it turned out to be ......" He didn't continue, turned around and returned to the table.
He Huan's gaze followed Shen Jinglun closely. She finally understood why he never allowed her to go out alone when she was still Lin Xiyan, even if she just went back to her parents' house, she must be accompanied by him or Shen Zhihua. Even at home, as long as they go out of their yard, there must be more than two maids to follow them.
Thinking about the past, He Huan's face changed slightly, and she blurted out: "That cousin's death ......" She remembered very well that when she gave birth, she had always been decent, and she drank the ginseng tea handed by Wen Po, and suddenly became exhausted. Before she died, she vaguely heard Wen Po screaming, and she was bleeding profusely......
Wait a minute! Wen Po was killed by the black scarf man and cut her throat with a knife!
The more He Huan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
When Wen Po was killed, she still felt strange. It was far from her home. For what she'd be there early in the morning. If Wen Po did not appear by chance. Instead, at the request of Shuiting's master, the whole thing is to kill people and kill people.
"Cousin-in-law, after my cousin died, did you check the stable woman who delivered her baby?" He Huan asked urgently and quickly.
Shen Jinglun was not surprised, just nodded and said in a low voice: "Your cousin did die of dystocia. ”
"That stable woman ......"
"Wen Po may have been bought, but she is not the only one in the delivery room."
Shen Jinglun's words dispelled the doubts in He Huan's heart. Wen Po was admitted to the Shen family a few months before she gave birth, and she had almost no contact with the outside world. Again. When she gave birth, Zilan and Sizhu had been with her, and there were other servants in the house, even if Wen Po wanted to harm her, she had no chance to do it.
Now that Wen Po has died and she has been reborn, He Huan decided not to dwell on it anymore, and asked Shen Jinglun instead: "Who is the owner of Shui Ting?" ”
Facing He Huan's expectant eyes, Shen Jinglun slowly shook his head. "You've probably guessed that, haven't you?" He couldn't. He didn't want to say his name.
He Huan was in a hurry for a while, and blurted out: "Is it really Zhao Yi, the son of the first prince?" How can you have a wife-stealing hatred with him? ”
"Nope." Shen Jinglun's voice was harsh. His face became a little more ugly, "He just thinks that I betrayed their father and son, so he is just looking for revenge against me." I told Shui Ting earlier that his master was just angry with me. ”
"What about Miss Xie? Whose child was she pregnant, and why did she commit suicide? ”
Before He Huan's words fell, Shen Jinglun pursed his lips, stared at her with dark eyes for a long time, and said word by word for a long time: "I know that you care about Nian Xi, so I tell you that he is not sick, and I don't want him to be the target of others, so I lied that he was seriously ill." This is my family's business, and I can tell you, but other people's business, without their consent, I can't tell you. ”
When He Huan heard him say this, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and replied: "But these things also concern me." I at least knew who wanted to harm me, so I could be on guard in the future. ”
"You've already guessed it, it's Zhao Yi." Shen Jinglun stated, and added: "Although I don't know what identity he used to come to Jizhou and where he was hiding, with his caution, I am afraid that he had already left Jizhou before Shui Ting surrendered." ”
He Huan didn't speak, just looked at Shen Jinglun blindly.
Shen Jinglun avoided her gaze, and then said: "This time you are just affected by me, as long as you are engaged and married in the future, he will never find you or your family." Of course, I will make sure you and your family are safe until you get married......"
"How can you guarantee it?" He Huan cross-examined, "Even if it's really like what you said, he has already left Jizhou, but I can't guarantee that he sent a killer to kill me before leaving." It's impossible for my cousin-in-law not to know how ruthless the black scarf man is. ”
Shen Jinglun frowned deeply, shook his head and said: "It's not sure yet, the black scarf must have something to do with him, after all, even if he hates me and the emperor again, he is not a Japanese national." He shook his head again, and then said, "No matter what, I will send someone to protect you near your house, and at the same time, I will ask my mother-in-law to find a suitable partner for you and marry as soon as possible." ”
He Huan listened to Shen Jinglun's emotionless statement, and didn't know how Lu Dao should feel. It was he who kept saying that he accepted her as a concubine, and almost kissed her, and met her in the middle of the night the night before, and then he was "enthusiastic" in arranging for her to marry, what did he mean by repeating it over and over again?
The more He Huan thought about it, the more angry she became, but when she saw his hands wrapped in gauze, she instantly wilted like frosted eggplants. She didn't understand Shen Jinglun, she didn't understand what he wanted, and she raised her head to see him clearly.
The moment the four eyes met, Shen Jinglun avoided her gaze again and asked in a low voice, "What else do you want to know?" What I can say, I won't hide it from you. ”
He Huan has a lot of things he wants to ask, but every one of them is related to what he calls "others".
After being silent for a long time, Shen Jinglun asked, "Are you angry?" ”
He Huan didn't answer directly, but just asked him: "Cousin-in-law, what are you saving me for?" ”
"In a situation like yesterday, even if the object is not you, I will save it."
Hearing this, He Huan wanted to smile bitterly. Xie San also said something similar to her. Thinking of Xie San, she hurriedly dispelled the figure in her mind. Since her rebirth, she has only one thing to do: to remarry Shen Jinglun for her son. Is there such a person as Xie San in the world, and it shouldn't have any impact on her.
Shen Jinglun was stunned when he saw He Huan. He turned his head to look out the window and said, "If you don't have anyone else to ask, I'll order someone to take you home." ”
"Cousin-in-law, can't you tell me all the things that involve Miss Xie?"
Shen Jinglun was silent, but his attitude was already the best answer.
He Huan looked down at his injured hands. He was in a fever, and she couldn't bear to ask him, and she didn't have a position to be aggressive, but did this series of things pass vaguely like this? The most important key is that the person who is hiding behind the scenes and directing Shui Ting, is he willing to just forget it? (To be continued......)
