Wen Chan subconsciously hid the courtyard sign behind his back.
Liang Yanbei sighed softly, "I've seen it all, what are you hiding?"
He smacked out a smile and said with a haha, "I'm just not playing well."
"I still can't guess when His Highness will be able to perform normally." Liang Yanbei took out a courtyard card from his sleeve, and looked at the word "Jiayi" engraved on it with a strange expression.
Wen Chan thought, am I not forced by the situation
He put away the courtyard sign, and said to Liang Yanbei, "Mr. Liang is very talented."
This compliment to Liang Yanbei is not very useful, he said, "Your Highness is new here, I'm afraid I can't figure out where to go, how about I take His Highness to Jiawutang?"
Wen Chan readily accepted his kindness, "Alright, please trouble Mr. Liang."
After the trip to May Island, Wen Chan has been able to get along with Liang Yanbei very easily, no longer like the first time they met, just want to escape in a panic.
Liang Yanbei's handsome face is always smiling, but Wen Chan can tell when there is gentleness in his smile, and when there is a cold front hidden in his smile.
Just like at this moment, his brows and eyes are full of lightness, and the more he looks at it, the more he likes it.
Wen Chan walked down the stairs in two or three steps, and waited for Liang Yanbei to come up to him before he asked, "What's the matter with Miss Jiang's family?"
"Wu Qi was sentenced to be beheaded. His son was still young and betrayed and exiled." Liang Yanbei walked side by side with him, and the difference in height between the two suddenly became apparent.
"It's just that Miss Jiang originally had a family relationship, but she was dismissed two months ago. In the future, I'm afraid..." He sympathized.
pity? Why does Liang Yanbei sympathize
Wen Chan suddenly remembered that on the night of Shangyuan Festival, Jiang Yueying was pushed down by the crowd, and it was Liang Yanbei who helped her up from the crowd.
"Young Master Liang, do you feel sorry?" Wen Chan's voice was neither salty nor weak.
"There are indeed some." Liang Yanbei said to himself, "Ms. Jiang is as beautiful as a flower, and I heard that she is a talented woman. It is really wrong to be ruined by a vulgar person like Wu Qi for no reason."
Unexpectedly, when Wen Chan heard this, he sneered and said, "Yes, Miss Jiang is beautiful and talented, she shouldn't have ended up like this, I remember that Mr. Liang seems to have not married a wife yet, if you come here with a dowry, it's not suitable to be a wife , it is still possible to be a concubine, and it is not in vain for Mr. Liang's regret."
Liang Yanbei was stunned by the yin and yang words, looked at him unexpectedly, and said, "...it's not right."
"Isn't it right?" Wen Chan got angry, and deliberately misinterpreted his meaning, "Young Master Liang thinks it's not enough? Why don't you send a dowry to Qiao's family and marry them back together. Miss Qiao must be so happy."
These words touched Liang Yanbei's mind. When he thought of Qiao Yan's words, he felt dizzy. At this moment, he shook his head like a rattle, "I didn't mean that!"
"Oh—" Wen Chan continued, "So you want to welcome Zhuxue from Yufulou into the door together? Are you not afraid of being criticized by others if you marry three people at once?"
Why did it involve Yufu Tower? Liang Yanbei was confused, "Who is Zhuxue?"
Wen Chan glared at him angrily, "You will know who Zhuxue is once you go to Yufu Tower."
After shaking his sleeves and about to leave, Liang Yanbei was inexplicably ridiculed, so he naturally wouldn't just let him go, and clasped his wrist quickly.
"What are you talking about? Why did you get angry all of a sudden?"
Wen Chan felt being pulled, and struggled quickly.
This is not May Island, this is the capital, and there are acquaintances everywhere. If someone sees him flirting with Liang Yanbei, and spreading any rumors, it will be a great trouble for Liang Yanbei .
Liang Yanbei didn't want to let go at first, but he overreacted and was frightened, so he let go with his strength.
Unexpectedly, Wen Chan didn't retract his strength in time, and he didn't stabilize his figure.
So Liang Yanbei watched helplessly as he staggered a few steps back and fell over.
Unexpectedly, he would fall, he sat on the ground and froze.
Liang Yanbei thought about it, and found that his mood changed drastically after he said he felt sorry for Jiang Yueying, and he presumably was angry at this.
Although Liang Yanbei still couldn't figure out why his anger came from, but now that he found out where it came from, things would be easy to handle.
He walked up to Wen Chan and knelt down, and said directly, "I was wrong."
Wen Chan stared at his flat face and remained silent.
"Before I said that I felt sorry for Miss Jiang, I really shouldn't." Liang Yanbei frowned slightly, and said with a look of remorse, "I am not related to Miss Jiang, and I don't have the slightest admiration, so I shouldn't say regret."
As expected, Wen Chan's emotions went away quickly, gradually calmed down, and asked curiously, "It's not regret, what is that?"
"It's nothing. What happened to her has nothing to do with me." Liang Yanbei raised his hands to hold his arms, pulled them up easily, and then picked up the courtyard card that fell to the ground just now, with gentle movements into his hands.
"I only care about His Highness's affairs." When he said such nasty words, his face didn't blush and his heart beat, which was quite natural.
On the contrary, Wen Chan's ears warmed up, and he held the courtyard card and stuffed it back into his sleeves. After realizing that he was a little unreasonable, he breathed out a hot breath and tried to explain, "Jiang Yueying... is not worth regretting."
She is a ruthless woman who betrayed Wen Chan ruthlessly. In order to save face in her previous life, Wen Chan insisted on announcing that Empress Jiang had died of illness and raised her son for more than twenty years.
When he thought of this, he looked indifferent, "The cause of the past life, the result of this life."
Liang Yanbei felt that he could no longer understand the words of the Ninth Prince, "What is the cause? What is the effect?"
"Don't coax me, you're just lustful, I don't believe it." Wen Chan snorted at him, turned and left.
Liang Yanbei regretted it at the beginning, so he shouldn't have been quick-mouthed and praised Jiang Yueying.
He chased after him, and followed Wen Chan a half step behind, "I just spoke from the bottom of my heart, and I never coaxed you."
Wen Chan ignored it, but the corner of his mouth slightly curled up.
That smile is like a child who has stolen candy, pure and clean, covered with a layer of golden light from the sun.
Liang Yanbei caught a glimpse of this smile, rolled his eyes, and smiled unconsciously.
"Hey—His Highness Ninth!" The two were walking one after the other when they suddenly shouted.
Zhong Wenjin came happily, his eyes full of anticipation, "How is it? Is it Jiawu?"
Wen Chan stopped and nodded slightly.
Zhong Wenjin laughed out loud, "Hahaha, I knew that His Royal Highness Ninth Prince is brave and mighty, and he really lived up to everyone's expectations!"
Lived up to expectations and entered the fifth hall? Wen Chan was a little dumbfounded, wondering if he should say "Thank you"
Liang Yanbei hurriedly came out to uphold justice, "Your Highness came here because of his abnormal performance. Do you think everyone looks like you, with a pig's head?"
If it were someone else, Zhong Wenjin would have blown his hair a long time ago, but the target was Liang Yanbei, so he could only swallow his breath and said angrily, "...I'm also acting out of order!"
"If you perform normally, I'm afraid you won't even be able to enter the top five." He said.
"You!" Zhong Wenjin was so angry that his nostrils were thickened, thinking that he couldn't beat him, he suppressed his pressure forcefully, "I remember Mr. Liang belongs to Jiayi, right? What are you doing here?"
"His Royal Highness came out of this place and didn't know the place. I'll send him to Jiawu Hall."
"That's not necessary now, I just take the Highness down." Zhong Wenjin pulled Wen Chan's arm, and smiled brightly at Liang Yanbei, "Young Master Liang, who has a human head, please go ahead."
Liang Yanbei held up the boulder of "upholding justice" and smashed his own foot, watching Zhong Wenjin pull people away.
Standing on the spot and thinking for a while, he felt uncomfortable, secretly scolded Zhong Wenjin as a little bastard, and walked in the direction of Jiawutang.
Zhong Wenjin took Wen Chan for a while, then let go, and said angrily, "Your Highness, Liang Yanbei is very bad, don't look at him smiling kindly and harmlessly all day long, he is actually quite unreasonable. If you are pleasing to the eye, scold you, if you don't like scolding, you will punch your fist, just like the street ruffians!"
Wen Chan thought it was funny, and thought to himself, isn't it, the previous life would beat you so that your nose bleeds every now and then.
"It's clear that Liang Shuhong is a cousin, why are they so far apart?" He muttered softly.
Wen Chan felt that he could answer this question, "Mr. Xie and your mother are still siblings. Do you think Mr. Xie looks like your mother?"
Zhong Wenjin's face froze, and he blurted out, "What's the difference? Besides, my mother and Xie Zhaoxue are not related by blood, of course they don't."
Wen Chan stared in shock and was speechless for a while, this was the first time he had heard of this!
The Xie family has only one son and one daughter, the eldest daughter Xie Yilu, and the youngest son Xie Zhaoxue.
Zhong Wenjin also knew that he was about to say the wrong thing, so he quickly shook his head, "I'm talking nonsense, I'm talking nonsense! Don't believe it!"
Looking at it like this, 80% of it is true.
Wen Chan was silent, Xie Shengran did not take concubines and had no access to a house. He had a daughter in his twenties. In the following years, Mrs. Xie's stomach did not move at all. It was more than ten years later that she was happy again and gave birth to Xie Zhaoxue.
Although there were rumors that Xie Yilu was not thanking her family, it was heard that when she got married, the dowry that Xie's family gave almost emptied the Xie family's wealth at that time, and the silk and satin circled half of the capital, emptying the streets.
The battle is comparable to a princess getting married.
Since then, no one has said that Xie Yilu thanked her family.
"Who did you listen to?" Wen Chan looked serious and serious, lowered his voice, and took a step closer to Zhong Wenjin.
Zhong Wenjin has never seen Wen Chan's expression like this before, and thinking about the big secret revealed just now, the mighty little overlord actually trembled with fright, "I...I..."
"Speak." Wen Chan said coldly.
"I happened to hear it when I was young." Zhong Wenjin muttered.
"Who did you hear that from?" He asked.
"When my grandma and my mother were talking, I heard it, and I never said it to anyone." Zhong Wenjin was at a loss, and begged Wen Chan, "My grandma said that apart from the difference in blood, my mother is a real person. The Xie family who are here, please don’t tell others! I just made a slip of the tongue... "
"Don't worry." Wen Chan saw that the little overlord was terrified, and comforted him, "I will keep my mouth shut, but I just want to know, does Xie Zhaoxue know about this?"
Zhong Wenjin hesitated for a moment, "He probably doesn't know."
Wen Chan looked at him like this, it was hard to say that he could keep this big secret for so long, and it was very dangerous to cheat out just by cheating like today.
He said solemnly, "Listen, Zhong Wenjin, you know this matter and I know it. You must not let the second person know it from you, otherwise your mother will be in danger, you understand?"
Zhong Wenjin was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded, "I know, I know, I'm rotten in my stomach, and I will never bring it up again."
He reassured Wen Chan again and again, and then he calmed down and let the matter go, "Let's go to Jiawu Hall first."
The matter of Xie Yilu thanking his family seems to have nothing to do with him at first glance, but Wen Chan knows that Xie Yilu's marriage to Zhong Guoyi was a marriage bestowed by the emperor. Can't be exaggerated.
The Xie family must not have any accidents. Wen Chan thought to himself, he had to think carefully about how to keep this secret.
Zhong Wenjin was not as strong as him, so he took a few deep breaths to make his face look less ugly, and led Wen Chan to Jiawu Hall.
As soon as he walked outside the hall, he heard a loud noise, and suddenly a person was kicked out of the hall, fell straight to the ground, and yelled.
The man fell in front of Wen Chan and Zhong Wenjin, and the two backed away at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, a young man ran out from the hall, rolled up his sleeves and raised his fists, and rushed over, cursing, "I'll kill you son of a bitch!"
