Chapter 16: Misunderstandings
Wang Tanxin led Tongxin to a small courtyard, with vermilion walls, golden glazed tile houses, and crimson gates, no different from ordinary government mansions.
"Welcome to the Humble House, little brother. Wang Tanxin pushed open the door and invited Tongxin to enter. Tong Xin couldn't help but complain in his heart. Don't be a little brother, little brother, your whole family is a little brother.
Tongxin walked into the small courtyard, and when he saw the layout inside, his suspicion of Wang Tanxin became heavier and heavier.
"Is this your home? Tongxin looked at Wang Tanxin with a friendly smile. Wang Tanxin didn't hide anything.
"This is Xiaosheng's humble house, little brother, it's better to come in and sit. Wang Tanxin opened the door of the house and invited Tongxin to come in.
Tongxin was not taboo, walked in, and after seeing the things in the house, she confirmed her guess even more. The person in front of him is not simple.
But he can't see anything from his scholarly appearance, but he has a residence comparable to that of a nobleman in the palace, and he is also surnamed Wang, if nothing is wrong, he must also be a young master.
"Wang Tanxin, do your people usually live here?" said Tong Xin tentatively.
"Yes, I usually live here alone. It turned out that it wasn't like this......" Wang Tanxin's voice became smaller and smaller, and Tongxin could see that he had something on his mind, and it was estimated that he was a very important person.
"Ahh Wang Tanxin got up and was about to pour tea for Tongxin, but Tongxin refused.
"Ah, no need, and Wang Tanxin doesn't need me to call me little brother, just call me Tongxin. ”
Seeing Tongxin say this, Wang Tanxin returned to the chair with some embarrassment and changed his words.
"Okay, Tongxin, why don't you tell me how you were tied up by Wang Sai. Seeing Wang Tanxin say this, Tongxin was embarrassed to refuse, after all, the other party was his life-saving benefactor.
"Ah, this ......" Tong Xin told him how he was tied up back and forth, Wang Tanxin's expression was very flat, without any waves, as if he had become commonplace.
"So that's the case, it's all my fault, I didn't let people look at my brother, alas, ......" Seeing Wang Tanxin say this, Tongxin began to have some doubts in his heart.
"You're brothers?"
"Yes, but not dear. Wang Tanxin said with some concealment.
"Then you are also the young master of the Wang family?" Tong Xin said further tentatively.
"Sort of. Wang Tanxin picked up the tea and tasted it carefully.
Tong Xin thought to himself: Sure enough, he is also a young master, but it seems that the origin of this young master is not simple.
"By the way, didn't you just say that you didn't look at Wang Sai, what do you mean?" Tong Xin supported his head with his hands, looked at Wang Tanxin carefully, and felt that the aura on this Wang Tanxin's body was not simple, a very evil feeling, with a trace of blood.
"Alas, my brother, he was ridiculed by others for his countenance, and began to be jealous of those who were handsome. But lately those handsome people have started to disappear one after another, and I have seen my brother take them to his yard, and then they have not been heard from since. Once, I saw my brother covered in blood, so I followed him to the backyard and saw him bury his body with my own eyes. At that time, some people claimed that someone was burying something in the backyard of the palace, although this matter was suppressed by my father, but it still had a great impact on many people. So I had people watch him so that it wouldn't happen again when I wasn't there. Tong Xin quietly listened to what Wang Tanxin said, and questioned his own thoughts, although he didn't believe the scholar in front of him, but he couldn't find fault with what he said, who should he believe. I didn't show it, and I should have done it on the surface.
"Wang Sai turned out to be such a person. You also said that you suffered and had such an older brother. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Tanxin showed an imperceptible smile.
