Chapter 48: Brother and Sister Reunited

"Why are you here? How are your injuries? Can the Hou Mansion still live in peace these days? Is Hou Ye's illness cured? Does he know about my escape? ”

Wen Zhao pulled him down at the table and sat down by me, smiled bitterly until my emotions calmed down a little, and then smiled at Aunt Hua, Fang replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, everything is fine in the Hou Mansion, my injuries are fine, and the illness of the Hou Ye is fine." It's just that after his old man learned that you didn't say goodbye, his mood changed sharply and became a little moody. But after all, not too many people know about you, so you didn't make too much trouble in the end, but you stopped going to court for two days by taking advantage of this wind and cold, and hid in your small courtyard all day long and refused to see anyone. Thankfully, the events of that night settled down so smoothly. ”

"Has it subsided? But that night, Yaoyao's body was left in the peach forest in the garden, how could the Hou Mansion be without wind and waves? I said worriedly, "And you were injured on the night of Xiaoyao's killing, and you were injured in such an obvious position, didn't Hou Ye really have any suspicions?" ”

"Of course it's suspicious. Such a coincidence can't be concealed even if you want to. Wen Zhao stroked a small piece of white cloth looming on his neck and said quietly, "Since I can't hide it, I simply shouted first, and told Hou Ye that night it was Xiaoyao who sneakily kidnapped you in the inner garden, and when I killed you, you had been removed from the house, and then hurried back to the outer garden to treat your injuries and ask for help, it was already too late to catch up." He had always been unconvinced of me, and was found wearing a crossbow on his body, just like the blade you had been stabbed with that day. In this way, it is confirmed that he has always intended to do evil to you. ”

I locked my eyebrows and groaned, although Wen Zhao's remarks sounded reasonable at first glance, but Hou Ye thought about it in the future, and he would definitely find something incomprehensible.

Once my courtyard is strictly guarded, how could Xiaoyao easily take me captive to the peach forest?

Second, the night patrol soldiers of the Hou Mansion have always been strictly arranged, how could Wen Zhao, as the general of the Praetorian Guard, appear in the remote peach forest in the inner garden late at night and happen to find the murderer Xiaoyao?

Thirdly, the night was in a hurry, and after Xiaoyao was killed and the night patrol soldiers were alarmed, Wen Zhao and I hurriedly fled the scene. If it was really as he said to the Hou Ye, when he was discovered by the government soldiers, he should have responded immediately to the call for help, how could he have left and returned to the camp on his own? Even if the injury is urgent, is it too far-fetched......

"Ling'er..."I was suddenly pulled out of my deep concern by Aunt Hua's sharp voice, "What do you think of being so distracted, Zhao'er is so easy to take the time to look at you, and I don't want to say a few more words to your brother?" ”

"Oh... Brother, speaking of which, why do you have to vacate the house today to sell the building? ”

"Where is it empty," Wen Zhao said with a smile, "It turns out that the Hou Ye has been sick and has not been to the court in the past few days, and the ministers in the palace led by several princes have sent greetings. Hou Ye has always been reluctant to pretend to be warm with them, but he still has to get by in the end. Today, he ordered me to come to the homes of the ministers of the East City to send a return gift, but unfortunately in the cold winter recently, some old ministers, including His Royal Highness the Prince, have some symptoms, and the closed door to recuperate saves me the time to thank me in person. After greetings, ask the others to go back to the house first, and I will come to see you in the building myself. This is also thanks to you, I have no time to go out of the house on weekdays, and I haven't seen Aunt Hua for a long time! ”

"My son, everything is fine in the building, you don't need to worry about it." Aunt Hua took Wen Zhao's hand and said affectionately, "Auntie, although this old bone is getting older, it is still healthy and tough." You are already working hard as an errand in the house, just take care of yourself, and Ling'er will leave it to her aunt with peace of mind. ”

"Aunt Hua, you are the only relative of my brother and sister, and you are the backbone of the Wen family, and I have no worries about Ling'er with you." Wen Zhao held Aunt Hua's hand and said sincerely, "It's just that it's hard for you to pass the age of six, and you have to work hard to run such a big restaurant, which really makes me feel distressed as a junior......"

Looking at Aunt Hua's face, which was so moved that she almost wanted to cry, I secretly suppressed my consternation - it turned out that Aunt Hua was over sixty years old?

Xu is because of the wanton happiness in this fireworks place all the year round, although Aunt Hua's slightly loose face has climbed a few light lines, after wearing rouge makeup powder, talking and laughing is still bright and bright, and it is still like a forty-something. If it weren't for Wen Zhao's accidental mention this time, I would still think that Aunt Hua was really a relative of the Wen brothers and sisters. It's just that if she is over the age of six, I am afraid that it is more than enough to be Wen Zhao's father's aunt, how can she become our aunt......

"Okay, there are still some things ahead of my aunt, so I won't bother your brother and sister to talk about themselves." Aunt Hua smiled, "Zhao'er, it's so easy to come back today, but you have to stay and have a good meal with Aunt Hua before leaving!" ”

Wen Zhao responded with a smile, Aunt Hua got up and called the little maid, told the kitchen to prepare, smiled warmly at me and Wen Zhao again, and turned around and went out.

"Brother, tell me about it, what's going on with Master Hou!"

"What else can I do, sad and angry, depressed and depressed, but just as you think." Wen Zhao took a sip of tea, looked at me with an anxious look and said slowly, "Ling'er, are you really unable to let him go like this?" ”

"Master Hou has saved my life, and I am naturally full of gratitude." I said seriously, "It's a pity that my identity is embarrassing, otherwise I wouldn't have left the Hou Mansion in this way." ”

"Exactly. Ling'er, you have to remember that even if the Hou Ye and you have a deep relationship, you shouldn't be too entangled. Wen Zhao took my hand and said, "You have your identity and your own life." You are the daughter of the Wen family and the banner master of the Tail Sect, this is what you should keep in mind. ”

"Speaking of the Tail Sect, I don't understand. Brother, I can already be sure that I went to the Hou Mansion to steal the treasure that day because I was ordered by the leader of the Tail Sect, and now that the mission has failed, why hasn't there been a half-sentence of summons and inquiries in the sect? ”

"The people in the Tail Sect have always been the most mysterious, that is, you have been in the Sect for many years as the banner master, and you have never revealed the slightest rumor to my brother and Aunt Hua. I'm afraid that only your sect leader and you yourself before the amnesia know about this joint. Wen Zhao said in a deep voice, "But since you don't remember these past events, and the Tail Sect has no intention of pursuing it, according to my brother, you don't have to think about it, just leave the matter behind, it's best that they never find you again." ”

I was silent, I understood what Wen Zhao meant, as an elder brother, he was naturally most concerned about Wen Ling's life. It's just that what he didn't know was that I had already met Duan Ming the day before, and that young man was a hub that firmly connected me to the Tail Sect and could not be broken.

On the other hand, I don't really want to be separated from this No. 1 sect in the rivers and lakes, not for anything else, I just hope to use the identity of the master of this flag to find out about the situation of Shui Qing and others in Japan. And this thought has nothing to do with Wen Ling at all, so naturally there is no need to talk to her brother Wen Zhao.
