When the expressions of the two of them sank, their thoughts converged in one place, thinking about the same thing and the same situation, but Xie Zhaoxue was in a state of complete confusion.
He looked at Wen Chan, then at Liang Yanbei, and asked suspiciously, "Did your Highness think of something?"
It was a bit troublesome to explain, Wen Chan didn't want to stay in this cell for a long time, so he said, "The matter is more complicated than imagined, let's go out first."
He said and walked out of the cell, "You order these corpses to be put away, have someone examine them carefully, and find out the cause of death of these people."
Liang Yanbei walked up a few steps, grabbed his wrist, stopped his footsteps, and said in a low voice, "Don't meddle in the affairs of the Zhong family."
Wen Chan turned his head and looked straight into his eyes, "As long as Zhong Guoyi is still alive, he will definitely try his best to kill me."
He wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a voice from the side.
"why?"
The two turned their heads at the same time, and saw Zhong Wenjin standing there with a mask on, his expression still as blank as before, his dark eyes staring at Wen Chan, "I... Dad, why did I kill you?"
Seeing Zhong Wenjin like this, Wen Chan suddenly felt distressed.
He didn't know what kind of expression was hidden under this mask, but seeing the young bully who was always active in the past became what he is now, he felt very uncomfortable, but he couldn't say anything suitable comfort.
In his previous life, Zhong Wenjin hated the Zhong family because of Xie Zhaoxue and Xie Yilu, so he tried his best to kill him. No one could know what was in his heart. Could it be that on a certain night, he thought of the Zhong family who had loved him so much? After returning home, you will also feel sad
From a certain point of view, Wen Chan thinks that Zhong Wenjin is much stronger than him, and he has great similarities with Zhong Wenjin, but at least in the end, Liang Yanbei is still by his side, but Xie Zhaoxue is early. went.
He completed his transformation in his own world, from a playboy who was loved and feared by everyone, to a cold-blooded and ruthless killer who killed his relatives with a sharp knife in his hand.
That's why Wen Chan always thought that Zhong Wenjin was a lunatic, because if those encounters happened to him, he would have collapsed long ago.
The Zhong Wenjin at this moment is not like in his previous life, after all, he has the strength after losing everything. He is still a young man, helpless in the face of this sudden change.
Wen Chan sighed softly, and patted him on the shoulder, "If you have doubts, just remember that I have hostility towards the Zhong family, but not you."
"Why?" Zhong Wenjin repeated again in a daze.
"I'm sorry I can't tell you the reason now." Wen Chan said, "But one day I think you will understand."
He really has no way to explain to Zhong Wenjin now, even if he tells the things hidden in his heart, no one will believe them.
"Forget it, let him calm down." Knowing Zhong Wenjin's appearance, Liang Yanbei couldn't persuade him with a few words, so he pulled Wen Chan back a few steps.
Afterwards, Xie Zhaoxue also came out. After saying goodbye to him briefly, the two left the Gecha mansion together, walked a long way to the side, and stopped beside the carriage.
Before getting into the car, Wen Chan asked him, "Do you feel uneasy?"
Liang Yanbei was taken aback when he heard the words, and Wen Chan went on to say, "The Zhong family became what it is today, it's all due to our design, Zhong Wenjin is depressed now, it looks really sad."
He knew that Liang Yanbei was not a ruthless person, anyway, Zhong Wenjin followed them all the way to May Island, and also made friends.
Targeting the Zhong family is destined to hurt Zhong Wenjin. Wen Chan had already thought about this issue before, but when he really saw him like that, he couldn't help but soften his heart.
Liang Yanbei thought for a while and said, "I can only say sorry to Zhong Wenjin. If his relatives want to hurt you, then I have no choice. I want to protect you, even if doing so will hurt innocent people."
When he said this, his eyes were full of seriousness, without any adulteration, such a firm expression made Wen Chan really feel it.
His heart was shocked, and he blurted out, "Liang Yanbei, sometimes I can't figure it out, what is it worth for you to do this?"
Liang Yanbei laughed softly when he heard the words, patted his head with his palm, and replied, "I think any place is worth it."
Wen Chan felt a little shy for a moment, coughed dryly, "I'm leaving, see you another day."
This time, for the first time, he did not stop him, but watched Wen Chan get into the carriage and gradually walked away. After the shadow of the carriage disappeared, he returned to Gecha Mansion.
Xie Zhaoxue was holding Zhong Wenjin's hand and whispering something, while Zhong Wenjin lowered his head.
Liang Yanbei glanced at the hands they were holding, raised his eyebrows in surprise, then quickly flashed his emotions, and said to Xie Zhaoxue, "Is there really no clue about Zhong Guoyi's whereabouts?"
"No." Xie Zhaoxue seemed to have expected that he would turn back, and said calmly, "It really disappeared out of thin air, just like the previous assassin who assassinated His Highness the Ninth Prince, there was no abnormality at all."
Liang Yanbei was silent, thoughtful.
"Brother Yanbei, what happened to the matter I asked you earlier?" Xie Zhaoxue asked.
"They are traveling very fast. Yesterday they sent a letter saying that they are almost arriving in the capital, and they will arrive in about two days." He said, "When they arrive in two days, I will take them to find you. If you have If you hear about Zhong Guoyi, please let me know as soon as possible."
Xie Zhaoxue nodded in response.
He is not stupid, remembering the big and small things that happened these days, he knows that there is a game going on secretly.
The sky in the capital has turned dark.
After the news was reported to the court, the emperor was furious and conducted another thorough investigation. In fact, as before, nothing could be found, so he could only try his best to suppress the rumors.
For the next few days, Wen Chan was in the palace, waiting patiently for news about Zhong Guoyi. He thought, if Zhong Guoyi was still alive, he would definitely come to him.
Originally, the ransacking of the Zhong family had not been resolved, but then the Gecha mansion caught fire, and then so many people died, which added a lot of after-dinner topics to the people in the capital.
Of course, people can't be idle after they are full, and they always have to say something when they are free, so there are various rumors about the Zhong family.
Some people say that the Zhong family is actually the reincarnation of evil gods, and anyone who hurts the Zhong family will be cursed by bad luck and die badly.
Some people also said that the death of the guards in Gecha Mansion was caused by Zhong Wenting's ghost.
Some people also said that Zhong's henchmen couldn't hold back and wanted to move.
After these strange rumors were told by Ah Fu to Wen Chan, Wen Chan snorted in exchange, "They all regard the Zhong family as gods, so it can be seen that these people are really fed up."
"That's not true, everyone said it vividly, just like the truth." Ah Fu echoed.
"Let them go, anyway, they can only talk about it." Wen Chan said.
At least in the first round of the game, Wen Chan beat the Zhong family by one game.
The continuous period of nervous tension and open and secret fighting also made Wen Chan a little tired. He took Ah Fu and Qin Qishuhua out of the palace again in the sunny afternoon.
It was getting colder and colder, and Wen Chan was dressed very thickly under Ah Fu's thoughts. He also specially wore a cotton hat embroidered with gold silk wishful patterns. The bright colors draped over his body made his face more delicate .
The capital city was quite lively on this day, because a group of top businessmen entered the capital city.
Although this kind of businessman is a merchant, he has never had a fixed stall. A group of people travel around in groups, and when they see something that others want to sell, or a good thing, they will find a way to buy it, and then go to another place to buy it. .
There are no ordinary things that are sold among the best merchants, so when they heard that this group of merchants entered the capital, many people rushed to see it.
Of course, in this kind of thing in the capital, the dignitaries or the rich are usually at the top, and the common people basically have no chance to buy it.
The temporary sales place of the merchants is in the west of Donghu Bridge, which is not a prosperous area. There are not as many people in Yufu Street on weekdays, but at this moment, more than half of the people in the capital have gathered, and some of them have very extraordinary identities.
As soon as Ah Fu inquired about the news, Wen Chan couldn't stay any longer, and led his people to the west of the bridge.
There are indeed many people, but it doesn’t look chaotic. Those vendors are very clever to separate the onlookers and buyers with fence ropes. If you want to enter the inner circle, you need to take out a string of hanging money.
Ordinary people naturally don't spend so much money just to watch the excitement, they would rather stand far away and watch.
When Wen Chan approached, he saw a few tables set up by vendors in the inner circle, and there were a lot of shiny things on the tables, some of which looked ordinary, but some of them also looked quite gorgeous, with a wide variety.
He noticed that one of the tables had a wooden stick, about the thickness of an arm, and eight feet high. There was something hung on the top of the stick, and it was covered with scarlet silk cloth, which looked swollen.
This thing is different from others, so it is obviously more rare and expensive.
"Bosses, I am very grateful that you can visit our shabby stall in your busy schedule. If there is something you like, the boss can take it away for a price." A dark-skinned woman said among them.
Perhaps it was the perennial rape, the complexion of several merchants was dark, and it could be seen at a glance that they were weather-beaten skin.
This is a very experienced team, who knows how to deal with dignitaries from all over the place, and first threw out some mysterious sayings, "We collected the things on this table from all over the world, and each one is unique. It is fate to meet all the adults here, and if that adult sees it right, he should take it home because of this fate."
"I see that these things on your table are not rare treasures." One person said.
"I didn't say it was a treasure, it's just that every item has a special price, and the price tag has a fate." A strong businessman took out a piece of glass blue from his sleeve. The jewel, he held it up slightly, let the sunlight shine on the jewel at a clever angle, making it look sparkling.
The gemstone is exquisite and clear, and it looks very beautiful at first glance, which instantly makes many people jealous.
The businessman said, "The price of this gemstone is bid by fate. If someone can guess the price of this gemstone, I will sell the gemstone. If it fails, it means that there is no predestined person at the scene. "
As soon as these words came out, many people began to discuss in low voices, with a lot of ridicule in their words.
"This intention is too obvious. Why don't we see who bids the price high? How much silver is the gem? It's just a matter of his words. Could it be that we are all fools?"
Hearing this, Wen Chan nodded in agreement.
The main purpose of a businessman is to make a profit.
