The maid came to Chen Zhong's door and knocked lightly.

The sound alarmed Chen Zhong in the room.

"Who?"

"Uncle Zhong, the young master is invited."

The maid's delicate voice sounded from outside the door.

Chen Zhong frowned lightly and replied with a slight perfunctory, "Got it." ”

After the people left, Chen Zhong looked at the clothes inside the package and recalled the words of the mysterious man just now.

A stream of mixed emotions intertwine in my heart.

Long.

Chen Zhong calmed down and returned to his usual appearance.

Got up and walked out the door.

……

Liuli Palace, in front of the main hall.

Chen Muyun put his hands in his cuffs, lowered his head, and paced on the flat stone road in front of the hall.

Not long after, under the guidance of the maid, Chen Zhong came in the dust.

"Young master."

Chen Zhong, as usual, respectfully bowed to a place other than Chen Muyun.

Chen Muyun gave a slight sideways "um", and then raised his hand to signal the maid to leave.

At this time, there were only Chen Muyun and Chen Zhong in front of the palace.

"The young master called me...... But what is the command? ”

Seeing that Chen Muyun didn't speak for a long time, Chen Zhong asked tentatively.

Chen Muyun let out a "tsk" when he heard this, rubbed his chin, and asked, "Uncle Zhong, if I'm not mistaken, since I returned to the city, you and I haven't talked about it in the real sense." ”

"That's true."

"Hmm." Chen Muyun nodded, "Chen Qingzhu has secretly helped me several times before, presumably it was all from Uncle Zhong's hands." ”

Chen Muyun did not rush to speak, but went from shallow to deep.

Chen Zhong's matter is actually said to be big or small.

To put it mildly, the murder of the young master should be punished.

To put it mildly, if he hadn't killed Chen Muyun before, there would be no Chen Muyun now.

What's more, according to Chen Muyun's inference, he didn't believe that Chen Zhong subjectively wanted to kill him, and there must be someone behind him.

And what Chen Muyun wants to know is just a truth.

Chen Muyun has been behaving quite strangely recently, and now he mentions the previous incident, although he doesn't know what medicine he sells in his gourd.

Chen Zhong also knew that he should be stubborn.

"It's all within the bounds, the young master still remembers it."

"Of course, there are not many people who can pull a hand in times of crisis these years."

Chen Muyun's tone suddenly became a little strange.

"However, the people who fall into the well and wait for the price to sell are grabbing a lot of them, just like that Chen Shidao."

"A handful of old people, with his seniority, it is more than enough to mix in the clan for a long time, but he has to move some crooked thoughts, and the result is ...... Hmph, stealing chickens doesn't make rice. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Muyun suddenly changed his words: "Eh, Uncle Zhong, what kind of do you belong to?" ”

Chen Zhong was stunned.

It quickly changed back to its original form.

has been in the Liuli Palace for a long time, Chen Zhong has also seen the world, and he can hear that Chen Muyun has something to say.

Therefore, Chen Zhong still looked so calm and replied, "I...... It's nothing, I'm just a subordinate, and everything I do is sent by my master. ”

Chen Zhong's words were very decent, and he even deliberately lowered his identity.

You must know that he is a person who has come from the era of Chen Laogou, and there is nothing to say about his age and qualifications, which is why Chen Boyuan has to give him three points of thin noodles.

But Chen Zhong's low profile did not convince Chen Muyun.

He understood that showing weakness was just Chen Zhong's strategy to evade.

As a result, Chen Muyun deliberately slowed down the sharpness of the problem.

"So, someone arranged it for me to help me?"

I don't know if I saw that Chen Muyun was going to dig to the end, or if Chen Zhong compromised, but when I saw him, he suddenly took a breath and said frankly: "As the young master said, everything you do below is entrusted by the old city lord." ”

For this answer, although Chen Muyun expected it in his heart, he was somewhat surprised.

Because that old dog Chen is indeed not like an ordinary elder, he is a natural person in power, and in his eyes, the interests of the family are above all else.

However, what Chen Muyun cares more about than these is the knot in his heart.

"So, you killed me on orders?"

Chen Muyun said as if he was joking.

But Chen Zhong is like a bolt from the blue here.

He stood stunned, and the expression on his face changed from his previous calmness.

Visible to the naked eye, a fine layer of sweat covered his forehead.

"Less ......"

When the words came to his lips, Chen Zhong seemed to be dumb, but he didn't know how to speak.

Chen Muyun understood that he had taken Chen Zhong's life.

"Actually, it's a coincidence, there was always a fragment in my mind before, and I couldn't remember or forget it bits and pieces, which gave me a headache, until the unexpected rain reminded me of everything."

"That rainy night, I came to assassinate my ...... That's you. ”

The air was surprisingly quiet at this moment.

Chen Muyun seemed to be able to hear Chen Zhong's heart.

But what Chen Muyun couldn't figure out was that Chen Zhong could be regarded as a person who had seen the world, and he didn't look like a person who was afraid of death, but why did he lose his square inch so much.

Half a day.

Chen Zhong suddenly staggered back a few steps and sat down on the ground.

"Huh...... What should come will come eventually. ”

Chen Zhong grimaced, as if he recalled some painful past.

"The young master expected it to be good, that night...... The man who killed you that night...... It was indeed me. ”

"Who instructed you?"

"No one directs me, it's my ......"

"Do you think I'll believe you?"

Seeing that Chen Zhong refused to tell the truth, Chen Muyun's face suddenly became gloomy.

"I don't know why, but it's definitely not you who wants to kill me...... Let me guess......"

Chen Muyun paced to Chen Zhong's side.

"It's my grandfather."

Before the words fell, Chen Zhong's expression changed slightly, that is, that slight moment, which was captured by Chen Muyun.

"It's really him."

As for the murderer behind the murder who wanted to kill him, Chen Muyun also made a guess.

can think about it, that is, Chen Laogou is the most suspicious.

Because, in the eyes of the clansmen, Chen Muyun eight years ago was just a waste, without a trace of threat at all.

But for Chen Laogou, it's different.

The source of Chen Muyun's ability to think like this lies in Chen Laogou's character.

A person who always puts the family on his lips will not allow the existence of the family to be smeared within the family.

And Chen Muyun is precisely the stain on the Chen family.

A useless waste!

At the same time, it may also become a weakness of the Chen family.

You must know that Chen Muyun traveled back in time to two years after the death of his mother Tang Wan'er.

At that time, Chen Boqing was placed under house arrest by Chen Laogou in the name of sealing the sword.

If so, Chen Boqing's enemies will take revenge and seize Chen Muyun to blackmail Chen Boqing.

At that time, if Chen Boqing's beloved son cut his hand, then the window paper of "Humming Sword Venerable" would be broken.

In this way, the Chen family may be gone.

Thinking of this, Chen Muyun leaned over and squatted beside Chen Zhong and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I just want to hear the truth, if you know everything, I will keep you fine." ”

As he spoke, Chen Muyun's face suddenly turned cold, "But if you dare to do anything crooked, I guarantee that you won't see the sun tomorrow morning......"
