Wen Qingzhu did not ask in detail what happened between Sheng Ruyi and Asen.
She just turned to look at the old man in the middle and asked him, "Then what's going on with you?"
The old man let out a long sigh, as if he wanted to speak slowly.
Wen Qingzhu frowned slightly, and Asen seemed to see what she was thinking, and said first, "It's okay, they want to leave this dark underground city! The first person to suppress them is Qianjia Trading Company!"
"What happened back then?" Wen Qingzhu had some guesses before, so he was not very surprised.
The patriarch quickly interjected: "This matter involves the grievances of the previous two generations, which is too complicated. The current problem, we have a common enemy with Asen and others, they are both Qianjia Trading Company, and now more accurately, it is money. Yong this person! Before, Qianjia Trading Company just didn’t want people from our clan to live in Jinzhou City, but now they started to use the slogan of driving out aliens and tried every means to get rid of those who didn’t work at Qianjia Trading Company. This is how Asen was implicated of."
Hearing this, Wen Qingzhu thought of the situation at Zhen's family.
She was a little confused: "Can't I find jobs anywhere else except Qianjia Trading Company? And everyone should have their own land, right?"
"More than 50% of the land in Jinzhou is under the name of Qianjia Trading Company, and 30% of the people who own the land are secretly members of Qianjia Trading Company. As long as you are still in Jinzhou, you cannot avoid Qianjia Trading Company. In the past few years, Qian Yong’s personal reputation has even surpassed the reputation of Qianjia Trading Company.”
When the old man talks about these things, it can be said that he sheds tears of bitterness, and his tone is so sad that it makes people sad.
However, Wen Qingzhu was not moved. She heard something the old man mentioned just now.
Under the slogan of driving out aliens
What alien race
Wen Qingzhu thought about it and could only think of one, and that was the Wu Clan not far from here.
"Clan leader, can I ask a question?"
"Excuse me."
"Are you the aliens they call you?"
The old man probably knew that Wen Qingzhu would ask this question, and nodded: "We are indeed not Han people. More than a hundred years ago, our ancestors were Wu people who migrated from the mountains of Cangzhou. But over the years, we have become the same as the Han people. They have had many intermarriages, and they all have Han blood flowing through them.”
"I understand this, but does Asen really have nothing to do with you?" Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Sen, his eyes deep.
From the moment he met Asen and the others, Wen Qingzhu found that the atmosphere between them and the old man's group was strange.
It was obvious that Asen was driven into the underground city, and it was the old man's clan who saved them.
But the old man seemed to feel guilty for Asen in his words and expression.
"Ha! You are indeed a madam!" Asen laughed and looked at the old man, "Don't try to hide anything in front of her. You think the one who can help us is King Rui, but I have always known that the one who can really help us is Only her!"
The old man's hands were shaking slightly, but he still acquiesced to Asen's words.
From the time Wen Mingxuan disappeared to the time Wen Qingzhu and the others found him, it only took three hours.
A series of events after the encounter showed that Wen Qingzhu was not a simple person.
Wen Qingzhu's eyes wandered between the old man and Asen, and he said with a slight smile: "If you want to cooperate, it's not impossible, but if you want to use me, you have no ability. I suggest you not to do so."
"I like what Madam said, so I will make the decision. To tell you the truth, he is my grandfather! But when I was born, he threw me on the street. It was my parents who saved me!
Later, when I grew up and became very talented in studying and doing business, they came to me and tried to get me to return to my clan! There is nothing so ridiculous in the world! Just because my biological father fell in love with my biological mother!
And my biological mother was the niece of an old enemy. She was killed by them as soon as my biological mother gave birth to me! My biological father hated him and committed suicide!
I didn't know about this originally, just because they approached me! Let the Shenggou thief find out my life experience, and then use his daughter to trap me!
If not for him! How did I end up in this situation today? My parents were originally a small wealthy businessman in Jinzhou City, and they also had identity cards, but because of me, they died in prison! "
Asen tilted his head and smiled gloomily: "Madam, what kind of cooperation is needed to deal with such a person? Why was Wen Mingxuan poisoned—"
"Shut up!" The old man became excited and his wrinkled face turned red.
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways, his smile unabated: "It seems that everything was planned by the clan leader? The only thing that surprised you is that I came here too quickly."
"Ah, sister?" Wen Mingxuan's voice came from the side.
Wen Qingzhu immediately turned around and looked him up and down: "How do you feel now?"
The toxins in Wen Mingxuan's body need to be relieved slowly. After taking her medicine, there is no problem in temporarily restraining himself.
"I..." Wen Mingxuan rubbed his forehead, glanced around the environment, and suddenly became anxious, "Linlin! Where is Linlin!"
Asen raised his head: "Don't worry, young master. Linlin is kind to the clan leader. He will do something to you, but he will never do anything to Linlin."
He then pointed to a room behind Wen Qingzhu and said, "You see, Linlin hasn't woken up yet."
"Don't worry Mingxuan, Linlin sneaked out of the house to play. It has been no problem for the past few years, and it will definitely be no problem now."
Wen Qingzhu comforted him and asked him to have a good rest first.
However, Wen Mingxuan was still worried and wanted to see Linlin with his own eyes.
The patriarch disagreed, but Asen stood strongly on Wen Mingxuan's side, so Wen Mingxuan went to the room.
Jiang Yuanhan thought for a while and decided to follow.
The old man stopped him excitedly: "Your Highness, aren't you worried about the people of Jinzhou? What Qianjia Trading Company is planning is not just money!"
Jiang Yuanhan smiled: "The patriarch thinks highly of me, I'm just a little King Rui!"
After saying this, he followed Wen Mingxuan to the room.
The old man's eyes were full of disappointment. Could it be that the adult's prediction was wrong
Asen said with great sarcasm: "Clan leader, I have told you that the so-called adult is also the descendant of the Witch King who personally drove you out of the mountain! Do you think he can save you? Don't be ridiculous, your clan can save you. There is only Mrs. Ping Guohou in front of me!"
Wen Qingzhu always had a smile on his lips. She really didn't expect that these people would be the first to get into chaos without even taking any action.
Wen Qingzhu also understood the ins and outs of the matter, after all the real and fake negotiations.
"I don't have much time. Who can make the decision between you and the clan leader now?"
Wen Qingzhu suppressed his smile. The red bean lantern competition was about to begin. Whether it was Qianjia Trading Company, Qian Yong, or Sheng Tongzhi, Sheng Hesong saw that it was time to start.
"Of course it's me. He's been on the ground for too long. The descendants of his clan can't even speak to him. What else do you think they can do? If I weren't here, Madam would probably take action!"
Asen glanced around and said in a serious tone: "Madam can blow up that entrance, and she must have brought many capable people with her. Although I didn't see it, I'm afraid they are around here, right?"
"You are very smart." At this time, Wen Qingzhu had to sigh.
The young man in front of me still has something.
Asen was also polite: "Of course he is smart, otherwise how would he have escaped the trap of the thieves, and how could he have helped them survive until now under the pressure of Qian Yong!"
"Okay, let's make a deal." Wen Qingzhu was very satisfied. No matter what Asen's purpose was, he showed his ability after all.
"Ma'am, please tell me." Asen finally waited for this opportunity, a chance for revenge.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Wen Qingzhu led people back to the Wei family.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Chai running out crying and hugged Linlin.
Following closely behind, besides Jing Yinuo, was a graceful and elegant woman.
"Mom, I'm fine, I'm just going -"
Linlin was halfway through her words when her eyes fell on the woman behind her: "Sister Ruyi is here too?"
As one wishes
Wen Qingzhu looked over seriously. The woman came forward and nodded with a smile: "Well, Uncle Wei and my father have gone out to look for you. My father asked me to come over and accompany my aunt."
Linlin smiled and thanked the woman in front of her.
When everyone sat down in the main room, Mrs. Chai introduced Wen Qingzhu and the others: "This is Qingzhu, Mingxuan, and Han'er."
"How do you two young masters? How do you do, Miss Qingzhu."
Mrs. Chai turned around and looked at Wen Qingzhu: "She is Sheng Ruyi, the youngest daughter of Sheng Tongzhi."
After receiving Mr. Chai's confirmation, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but stare at Sheng Ruyi carefully.
Is this really the Sheng Ruyi Asen mentioned
"Miss Qingzhu, do you have any questions?" Sheng Ruyi waited for a while and saw that Wen Qingzhu was still looking at her, so she asked with a smile.
There is a natural simplicity and elegance in her expression and tone.
From Wen Qingzhu's perspective, people like her are not as sinister and vicious as Asen said.
However, everything has exceptions. Maybe this Miss Sheng is hiding something secretly
Wen Qingzhu smiled and replied: "I just feel that Miss Sheng is particularly kind-hearted, as if I have seen her before somewhere."
"Really? Maybe Miss Qingzhu made a mistake. I grew up in Jinzhou and rarely go out." Sheng Ruyi explained a few words.
But she was very good at talking, and she added: "Since we met here today, it must be fate."
Wen Qingzhu smiled and nodded, but his heart became more and more strange.
If this side of Sheng Ruyi is disguised, then this person will not be easy to deal with.
Half an hour later, Wei Shuang and Sheng Hesong rushed back together.
After confirming that Linlin was safe and sound, Wei Shuang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qingzhu, who was standing nearby, looked at Sheng Hesong silently. He had a very typical appearance of a Daqi person. He had been an official for a long time, and he also had a bit of power.
However, Wen Qingzhu always felt that those smiling eyes contained a hint of hypocrisy, as if he was trying to cover up something.
After a while, Sheng Hesong seemed to notice her gaze.
Looking up, the moment the two people looked at each other, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but become vigilant: This person is not simple!
"Is this a relative from your family?" Sheng Hesong had a smile on his face, but he had already confirmed in his heart that this person was Wen Qingzhu, the Marquis of Pingguo.
Wei Shuang nodded, and just when he was about to speak, Wen Mingxuan, who was standing next to Wen Qingzhu, felt his heart suddenly dull, and then spit out a mouthful of black blood.
"Mingxuan!"
The room suddenly became chaotic.
The sky is slightly bright, in front of the bed.
Wen Qingzhu withdrew the last silver needle, his face so gloomy that water dripped from his face.
If the heart meridians are damaged, even a little poison or injury may cause life-threatening consequences.
Now Wen Mingxuan must repair the damage to his heart veins as soon as possible.
When he thought about the origin of Wen Mingxuan's injury, Wen Qingzhu felt a surge of hatred in his heart.
King Ning! I won't let you go!
"Lv Tao, bring me pen and ink!"
Half an hour later, a secret letter was quietly sent to the capital.
After going out, Mrs. Chai stood at the door holding Linlin who was sleeping.
"Auntie, why are you still here?"
There was a faint dark green under Mrs. Chai's eyes: "Linlin was worried about Mingxuan and refused to leave, so I held her and waited here. She couldn't hold on and fell asleep in the middle of the night. Is Mingxuan feeling better now? "
