Quan Qinghua stood a few steps away from them, and then bowed his head slightly at Ye Wenyan.

Ye Wenyan returned the salute and asked, "I am a coincidence, and the Fourth Highness can not say that you are also a coincidence." ”

Quan Qinghua shook his head, "I didn't meet by chance, I came for that kid." To tell you the truth, I have been paying attention to this side since the last time, the murder happened yesterday, I sent someone to the scene to see it, and those two people died very miserably. The woman had her skull shattered by the man's life, and the man had smeared his neck with a blunt knife, and blood spurted all over the room.

The boy was in the house, witnessed all this, and went up to try to cover the wound on his father's neck, but the blood sprayed his face like a ghost.

I came to the outer city early in the morning and went to the yamen of Lin'an Mansion in the outer city. Because the case is simple and the murderer is dead, there is nothing to investigate, just let the man's brother take the body back, sign and draw the charge, and the case is closed.

It's just that the woman has no one to take it, the mother's family is not in Lin'an, and the man's family refuses to bring her back, and even in the yamen, the younger brother said that he would leave the woman out of the house, and he would not be able to enter their ancestral grave if he died. Therefore, the female corpse has been parked in the yamen, and the official has no choice, thinking that it really can't be done, so he can only dispose of it as a nameless corpse.

Later, it was the king who showed them a clear way and asked them to carry the woman's body to the man who had a relationship with her before her death. When the time comes, one will be counted as one, and all of them will be called together and publicly claimed. If someone recognizes it, let him take the body away, if no one recognizes it, then directly unload the body according to the number of men, and each person will be divided into a piece, and he will have to ask for it.

Senior sister, do you think my idea is very good? ”

Ye Wenyan frowned, didn't say anything, and Ye Chu's face turned white. Even though she liked this Fourth Highness in her heart, she didn't dare to look up at him at this time. I feel that the person who can say such things is very cruel in itself.,It seems that in a light and breezy body.,There is a terrible youkai living there.。 Hide well, he is still light and light; If you don't hide it well, youkai will eat people.

The weather in April made her shiver all over her body with cold, and she couldn't control it at all.

But Quan Qinghua also asked: "Fifth Miss, are you scared?" ”

Ye Wenyan shook her hand, and Ye Chulian felt a warm breath wrapping around her, and the coldness faded suddenly, and her body stopped shaking, but she still didn't dare to look up at Quan Qing's painting, let alone respond to his question.

Ye Wenyan was very helpless, "My fifth sister is timid, why are you scaring her like this?" ”

Quan Qinghua smiled and waved his hand at Ye Chulian, "Fifth Miss, I'm sorry. ”

Ye Chulian calmed down for a while, and also returned the salute, shouting: "Fourth Highness." And then he said nothing.

Ye Wenyan asked Quan Qinghua: "Since His Royal Highness has already disposed of that woman's body, what are you doing here now?" ”

Quan Qinghua didn't hide it from her: "I'll ask the kid if he wants to go with me, if he nods, I'll take him with me, whether it's an entourage or a scholar, it's okay to raise him." ”

"Why?" She was puzzled, "You don't know him, you have no relatives and no reason, why do you want to raise him?" ”

Quan Qinghua smiled bitterly, "Even if it's fate!" It's better for me to take him with me than to be thrown out of the house by my relatives and be helpless. At his age, if he is homeless, there is no hope in this life. Senior sister, rest assured, I will not force him to become a slave, all because I do a good deed and be a good person, I hope he can live like an ordinary person when he grows up, not like me. ”

Ye Wenyan looked back at the small courtyard, she didn't know if the child would be willing to go with Quan Qinghua, but as Quan Qinghua said, it is better to have a support than to be swept out of the house by relatives and wander the streets from now on.

The child's state just now made her feel that it was not what a child should be. I don't know if it was the scene when his father and mother died that scared him, or if he really understood why his father killed his mother.

She wished it was the first one, and that might be able to solve it, and there was hope. But if it is the second type, I am afraid that many years later, it will become another Quan Qing painting.

"Senior brother's affairs, senior brother is in charge of his own affairs, and I only have a one-sided relationship with that child, so there is no need to say thank you for him. I just hope that the senior brother can let him bask in the sun more, the sun will shine away the haze in people's hearts, maybe according to it, some things that were thought to be very important in the past have become less important after the passage of time. ”

Quan Qinghua nodded, "Okay." After speaking, he was about to walk to the courtyard, and when he came to the door, he remembered something, turned back to Ye Wenyan and said, "A letter from the county lord of Zhaolian, the compensation for the return to the Yue Kingdom is already on the way, and she will come back with her." Let me tell you that when she is about to arrive in Lin'an, please be sure to go out of the city to greet her in person, so that you can show that you value her. ”

Ye Wenyan laughed when he heard it, and casually threw down a sentence: "Self-inflicted!" Then he took his men and got into the carriage.

Quan Qinghua looked at the carriage and laughed, but he was stunned when he laughed. He thought he was laughing at the night Wen Yan's self-inflicted affection and was really duplicitous, but it turned out that he was laughing at the news that the county lord of Guiyue was coming to Lin'an again.

The girl who had been wearing a thin red gauze skirt for ten years, even in winter, began to miss her a little after he left Guiyue for nearly half a year. It turned out that there was still a person who existed like salvation in the hellish return to the moon, and until many years later, it would still bloom into a red lotus in his eyes and heart, making him unavoidable.

He looked up, the sun was not as strong as it was at noon, but it was still a little dazzling.

Ye Wenyan said that being illuminated by the sun will illuminate the haze. Perhaps! It's just that his haze has been rooted in his heart for too long, and it is difficult to pull it out. So he wants to take that child away, and from now on he will live in the sun, and maybe in a few years, he will really forget what he should forget, and it doesn't matter what he shouldn't forget.

He was powerless to save himself, so he could only try his best to save the child. One less person like him in the world is a blessing.

On the carriage on the way back, Ye Chulian had been frowning, trying hard to think about something.

Ye Wenyan didn't take the initiative to disturb her, until the carriage had stopped at the gate of the General's Mansion, and then she heard Ye Chulian say, "Sister, what kind of person is he?" Is it the good guy or the bad guy? Why can a person who looks so calm and breezy say such things? And why did he argue with you last time and end up taking me hostage?

Although he didn't do anything to hurt me, I just knew that at that time, he used all his cultivation to suppress his anger and maintain his appearance, when in fact others were already on the verge of anger.

I wanted to ask him what was going on, but I knew there were some things I wasn't qualified to ask. He and I were just a slightly familiar stranger, and it was because of the fourth sister and the uncle that they intersected, not to mention that I was still a hostage at the time.

But what he said today was terrible, even though he had asked his entourage to tell my father that he wanted to use one of my second brother's hands in exchange. But I always felt that he was just angry, just talking. Today, he makes me feel that he really thinks like that, and the officials will listen to him and really do that. It's horrible, not like what he's supposed to do. ”

Ye Wenyan tilted his head to look at her, looked at her for a while, smiled, and then said, "Then what kind of person do you think he should be?" Should it be light and light? Chu Lian, a person's appearance is just how he looks, and it does not represent how he actually is. It is often said that hearing is believing, but sometimes even if you see it with your own eyes, it may not be all true.

You yourself said that you are only slightly familiar with the Fourth Highness, how can there be more understanding between people who are slightly familiar. ”

She patted Ye Chulian, "Don't think too much, maybe I'm talking a little serious, but it's not so much." If you ask me if he's a good guy or a bad guy, all I can say is that he's a good guy relative to us, but he's probably a bad guy relative to other people.

is like the Third Highness, everyone says that the Third Highness is decisive in killing and punishing, and domineering, but he is very good to the second brother, and now he is also very good to us, so we can't say that he is a bad person.

So good guys and bad guys are all relative, you don't care what he does to others, just look at what he does to himself. Of course, he took you hostage, and that's not a good thing. ”

"And what kind of character is he?" Ye Chulian still wanted to know more about that person.

Ye Wenyan thought about it and said, "I don't know what kind of character it is, but he has hatred in his heart, and this hatred has been held back for many years." Do you imagine that if a person has lived with great hatred for more than ten years, will his personality be affected by this hatred to some extent, and some changes will occur? I once heard Quan Qingcheng say that his fourth brother was a very sunny teenager more than ten years ago, and he often visited him, talked to him, and would buy him new things sold on the street. Maybe that's what the Fourth Highness should look like, and what we see now is just the mask he put on after he had hatred. I hope that one day he will take off that mask and let us see who he really is. ”

"Let's go back!" She patted Ye Chulian, "Take Sui Xi in first, I'll stand outside the door for a while." ”

Ye Chulian listens to her very much now, and she does what she asks her to do, and she doesn't ask why. Ye Wenyan let her go into the mansion, she left with Suixi, and soon only Ye Wenyan and Shen'er were left outside the mansion, as well as Zhou Shang, who was already about to drive the carriage to the back door.

She called Zhou Shang, and the carriage did not continue to go. Zhou Shang jumped out of the car, and Ye Wenyan also took two steps forward.

She just stood and looked at Zhou Shang, obviously having a lot to ask, but she didn't know where to start for a while.

It was Zhou Shang who spoke first to break the deadlock, and she asked Ye Wenyan: "Does Miss want to know about the general's affairs at the border pass?" ”
