Chapter 10: Caught Straight

Wei Chongshan and Wei Yunshan, brother and sister, have been close since childhood. Wei Yunshan's death devastated Wei Chongshan, and he was bent on finding the murderer and avenging his sister.

The target of the murderer is King Wu, looking at the entire Shang Kingdom at the moment, the most suspicious is the current crown prince and the dynasty, if you want to confirm it, you must first find the first witness - King Dusk.

On the second day of the Dusk Palace, Wei Chongshan took a leave of absence and personally came to the door with a heavy gift to thank him, and it happened that the Dusk King was not in the house, and the servants of the palace all said that the Dusk King sent the Wu King to the Yaoxian Valley to heal.

Wei Chongshan left a letter and invited him to drink tea in the Wei Mansion when the Dusk King returned to the mansion.

The Twilight King was very face-saving, and came to the door on the afternoon of the third day.

In order to express his sincere gratitude, Wei Chongshan not only prepared the best fruit drinking tea, but also invited the most famous musicians in the capital.

At this moment, Wei Chongshan and the Dusk King were led by the maid to the elegant and quiet place in the mansion, but before they could get closer, the maid who led the way in front suddenly stopped and exclaimed.

Wei Chongshan was about to scold, but the maid had already reacted and hurriedly turned sideways, lowered her head and whispered: "That, that, that seems to be Miss Cousin." ”

Wei Chongshan looked over and saw a petite and thin girl sitting in the pavilion, holding a porcelain cup in her hand and sending it to her mouth, and then looking at the melon and fruit candied pastries on the table.

A trace of pity and guilt flashed in Wei Chongshan's eyes, and he calmly instructed the maid to quickly prepare the snack again, before he looked apologetic to the Dusk King: "Your Majesty has not taken good care of you, please don't blame the Dusk King." ”

Jun Dusk's eyes looked at the comfortable girl in the pavilion through the hole in the mask, and said lightly, "It's okay. ”

Only then did Wei Chongshan shout at the pavilion: "Peony? ”

This sound made the girl in the pavilion tremble, and the porcelain cup in her hand fell to the ground, making a crisp sound, and it fell apart.

Lu Weiman didn't care about the debris on the ground, turned his head to look at the source of the voice, and when he saw the person clearly, his eyes unconsciously swelled with a touch of disappointment. Since she was born, only her father and mother have called her milk name, and when she suddenly heard it, she still thought it was her father.

This disappointment was quickly replaced by surprise, and what surprised her was the two people who walked slowly outside the pavilion. One has a face that bears some resemblance to his mother's, and the other wears a jade-colored mask.

If she guessed correctly, this one who looks like a mother should be her mother's brother, and the other one who wears a mask is the famous Twilight King.

Wei Chongshan gave a look, and two maidservants stepped forward behind him, cleaned up the debris very quickly, and removed a mess of cups and saucers, followed by a maidservant girl with a teacup and cup, and placed it on the stone table in a delicate and elegant manner.

Lu Weiman looked at the maids who came in and out, and suddenly realized that he had done something wrong and sat in the wrong place, so he hurriedly got up and stood in the corner.

In just a moment, the pavilion took on a new look.

Wei Chongshan respectfully led the Dusk King to the wooden chair where Lu Weiman was sitting before, and he sat on the other side, waiting for the maid to fill the two with a cup of tea, before picking up the teacup and saying: "This is the Wandao tea brought back from Wandao Mountain a few days ago, and the Dusk King tastes it." ”

Jun Duan took a sip of the porcelain cup, put it down, and praised it with a very appreciative face: "It's really good." ”

Wei Chongshan looked at Lu Weiman who was standing in the corner, and the color of love and pity unconsciously climbed up his face: "Peony, come here." ”

Lu Weiman tried his best to hide the embarrassed expression on his face, moved over step by step, and said in his heart that he had caused trouble to his old man when he met his uncle for the first time, and he was afraid that his uncle's impression of her was very bad, and now it is estimated that he is embarrassed to teach her too harshly because outsiders are present.

When he got closer, Lu Weiman stood with his head down, clasped his hands in front of him, looking like he was waiting to be punished for doing something wrong, but after standing still, he waited for a sentence "Help Miss Biao tidy up her appearance." ”

Immediately afterwards, a maid stepped forward and took out a brocade handkerchief, which touched the corner of her mouth accurately.

Lu Weiman was even more embarrassed, his little face was slightly red, and his head hung even lower.

After the maid stepped back, Wei Chongshan's tone was a little more serious: "Kneel." ”
