"Guards, you can't get in here..." Before he could finish his words, the door was kicked open suddenly.
The sunlight poured in and shone on the side of the woman's face. Her eyebrows were beautiful, her skin was flawless, and her lips were red, like a seducing fairy.
The officers and soldiers were in a daze for a moment. They didn't expect such a beauty to exist in such a remote mountain village.
Xue Yu stood up slowly, holding a wooden stick in her hand, and her eyes fell on the ground in vain.
At this time, I noticed that the woman's eyes were a little dim, like a beautiful jade with a slight flaw, and a little less lively.
The leading man lowered his voice, "Are you Mr. Xue?"
Although Xue Yu looked a little panicked, she spoke very clearly, "I have met several officials."
"cough."
A voice suddenly sounded.
The attention of several officers and soldiers was immediately attracted. The leader asked with some suspicion, "Who is this?"
"Returning to the official, this is my brother who came to live with me. He was kicked out by his family because he was suffering from leprosy, so he found me..."
Several officials took a few steps back. Leprosy is contagious.
The leader squinted his eyes and was horrified when he saw the dense red spots on the man's face. Thinking that Xue Yu had taken care of the patients, he quickly stayed away from Xue Yu.
The officers and soldiers did not dare to stay longer and left quickly.
Xue Yu and Jiang Xuze both breathed a sigh of relief.
After some time, when the officers and soldiers did not come to search again, and the area was quiet for a while, Wei Jingchen washed away the red spots with water.
However, Jiang Xuze has been frightened, fearing that the officers and soldiers would search him again, and wanted to get Xue Yu pregnant as soon as possible.
But the man himself was held hostage by him, and Jiang Xuze did not dare to say anything more.
Time passed slowly, and the yard was filled with herbs spread out to dry, and the bitter smell of herbs lingered in the air.
Xue Yu was a little confused. It was clear that Wei Jingchen's wounds had healed and the search by officers and soldiers had stopped. Why didn't he leave here yet?
The expression on Xue Yu's face was too plain to be understood at a glance.
Wei Jingchen looked around and felt a hint of coldness, "Mrs. Jiang, be careful where you step."
The man's voice was too abrupt, and the coldness penetrated into the bone marrow. Xue Yu herself was a little afraid of him, and shuddered suddenly.
Wei Jingchen found Xue Yu's appearance very interesting.
Obviously every night, her body was close to his. Sometimes when it was cold, her arms would wrap around her like a dodder flower, sucking in the warmth.
But in the daytime, when she faced him, she wished she could stay away from him.
As if he were an evil spirit.
After hearing his words, Xue Yu couldn't help but think to herself, no one would be afraid of a vicious criminal standing in front of her, right?
What's more, he almost strangled her to death.
Xue Yu didn't want to talk to Wei Jingchen anymore and walked quickly into the house, but she didn't notice her feet and her body fell forward involuntarily.
Xue Yu closed her eyes subconsciously, and suddenly felt something holding the collar at the back of her neck, making her stand firm.
The man's voice sounded above her head, like a gust of wind blowing, "Are you so afraid of me?"
Wei Jingchen's aura surrounded Xue Yu very aggressively, following her like a shadow, making her breathless.
He took a few steps back.
Xue Yu squeezed the wooden stick with her fingers and pursed her lips tightly, "...Thank you very much."
Wei Jingchen wanted to laugh a little, but he was obviously afraid of his own failure, but he still remembered to thank him, "Why?"
He was suddenly curious about the reason.
Xue Yu bit her lip, not knowing what to say. She pondered for a moment before saying softly, "Maybe it's because you pinched me that time..."
Wei Jingchen was stunned for a moment, a dark emotion appeared in his eyes, and suddenly said, "Although my family is a businessman, we are extremely rich. There are five or six brothers like me..."
There was a trace of confusion in Xue Yu's eyes, and she didn't understand why Wei Jingchen suddenly said this to her.
"The reason why I was hunted down this time was precisely because my brothers sent people..." Wei Jingchen's expression remained calm, but his tone contained a bit of a wry smile, "At first I thought Mrs. Jiang was That's why they sent us here..."
Xue Yu felt some sympathy in her heart and pursed her lips tightly, "I see, then is it because of them that they are wanted by the government?"
Wei Jingchen's lips curled up slightly, but his voice was filled with sorrow, "Well, Wei didn't expect them to do this."
Xue Yu felt even more sorry for Wei Jingchen and said a little apologetically, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
The man chuckled and said politely, "It doesn't matter. I just hope Mrs. Jiang can take me in for a while longer."
Xue Yu thought she felt a little sorry for Wei Jingchen, so she naturally agreed.
Little did he know that the man in front of him was just a vicious wolf wrapped in the skin of hypocrisy like a sheep.
At this time, a clear sound of birdsong passed through the sky.
Wei Jingchen's eyes flashed with something strange, and he looked at the tall tree with lush branches, lush green and slightly trembling leaves.
His people are coming.
Wei Jingchen glanced at Xue Yu, her pretty face seemed not to notice, and looked innocent.
"Wei is a little tired. Let's go back to the house first."
Xue Yu didn't doubt it, nodded and went to do her own thing.
A black figure suddenly flashed into the house.
Yun Jian handed over his hand, "My subordinate is late! Please punish me, Your Highness!"
Wei Jing glanced at him sideways and said calmly, "How is the capital now?"
Yun Jian frowned slightly and reported, "After His Highness was assassinated, His Majesty became furious and ordered Xu Liang, the Minister of Dali Temple, to investigate the case. But who knew that the Minister of Dali Temple, Xu Liang, was a member of the eldest prince? His Majesty was clearly biased... "
The eldest prince, Wei Yan, was the daughter of Concubine Xu. Although he was not his legitimate son, he was an elder. He had been favored by the emperor since he was a child and had the support of many people in the court.
Wei Jingshen's eyebrows were calm and he seemed to be used to it.
"How is your mother?"
Yun Jian looked at Wei Jingchen cautiously, and then spoke after a long while, "Ever since the Queen learned that His Highness was missing, she united with the Wei family to promote the fifth prince to the throne..."
The fifth prince, Wei Jingyao, is the biological brother of His Highness and the treasure in the hands of the Queen. He has always been very favored.
But His Highness has only been missing for a short time, but the Queen is focused on the fifth prince and only wants to give him the crown prince position.
Wei Jingchen's eyes suddenly turned cold and frosty, and there was a hint of ridicule at the corner of his mouth.
"She is indeed a good lonely mother."
Yun Jian did not dare to speak anymore and was trembling with fear.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, mixed with a soft voice, "Mr. Wei."
woman?
Yun Jian's eyebrows became extremely sharp, his hand pressed on the sword at his waist, he looked at Wei Jingchen and lowered his voice.
"Your Highness?"
Wei Jingchen raised his eyebrows. After his injury healed, Xue Yu rarely came here in person.
It seemed that he really believed what he said.
"You hide first." Wei Jingchen waved towards him.
Yun Jian was slightly stunned, but his body had subconsciously found a hiding place to hide.
