Chapter 31 Surprise Visit of Linger

The unfinished rose fragrance was still on the desk in the Soul Hall. Cigarettes floated out from the curtains of the inner room, and the bright light circled around the ground and covered with corners. The sound of porcelain pieces colliding in the room was a sound of the maid breaking the porcelain cup on the ground after being furious.

The white silk on the door reflected the figures of two people, and the sound of talking was vaguely heard.

"Where did the second brother go the day before yesterday?" Wei Ling'er thought about it in her heart when she saw the red marks that were sporadically red on Wei Hechu's chest. However, since her mother died, the second brother rarely did such a sword-shadow. Except for her father's order, she spent the rest of her time in the study.

Wei Ling'er took out the handkerchief from her waist and tried to wipe off the filth. "Look at you, you came back without cleaning it. If your father saw it, he should say you again..." Speaking of this, Ling'er slowly stopped talking. His father never liked his second brother and had never treated him sincerely. Wouldn't he say this to the second brother's worries?

The air suddenly became quiet.

She didn't continue to say it. Looking at the bloody stains, Wei Ling thought of the recent temple destruction incident in Yucheng. At that time, Wei Hechu was gone all his life. At first, she thought that his second brother had left the palace, so she didn't think too much about it.

Until half an hour ago, Lan Shang came back from the market and told him that he had seen His Highness Chu come in from outside the city gate at the market, and a blind girl was brought in front of him...

Lan Shang has a good eye. She said that if she is Your Highness, she will not admit her mistake.

It was hard to wipe dry blood, so Wei Ling'er used a handkerchief to wipe it hard with water. Gradually, the plain silk was printed with a red color on her head.

Her eyes looked at the clothes, but she had long seen that Wei Hechu's face was not very good just now, so Wei Ling'er wondered if it was related to the girl on the way.

"Listen to Lan Shang, my second brother brought back a girl?" Ling'er asked, "Who is still eye-catching?"

Wei Ling'er was very careful when she asked about this, and Wei Hechu didn't want others to ask about his private affairs.

"Yeah." Unexpectedly, he frowned slightly with his eyes closed.

"She saved my life when she was in Yucheng." His tone was very plain and had no emotions. "I don't like to owe others, so I paid it back."

Hearing this answer, Wei Ling'er nodded, she smiled slightly and was quite satisfied. Since the second brother thought so, he was relieved.

"Where did you place her?" she asked, stopping the work in her hand.

After she asked this, Wei Hechu suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Wei Ling'er, and a trace of turbulence flowed through his eyes that had been silent all year round.

He moved his clothes away, "Thank you today. I still have official documents to deal with, so I'll go back first."

"Wait..." Wei Ling'er wanted to say something but could not resist Wei Hechu's turn. She held the blood-stained red silk hand tightly in her hand and let it go. At this time, Wei Ling'er looked at the figure of her second brother Wei Hechu leaving, and a tear flashed across the corner of her eyes.

Second brother, you have only treated me the best since childhood, but even so, you have never really believed me...

Lan Shang walked out of the house and draped a coat on Ling'er's shoulders, "It's windy outside, let's go back to the house."

"Since that woman is from Qingguan Temple, she will definitely not be able to bring her into Yangcheng Palace openly. My second brother must have hid the girl..." Wei Linger ignored Lan Shang's words and put her fingers under her lips and thought quietly, "It won't be an inn in a lively area..."

"Send all the reliable people in the hall to check all the houses in the mountains and mountains!"

Lan Shang nodded and gave a gift, then withdrew from the Soul.

At this time, in the wooden house in Pianlin, Mrs. Xu placed the prepared dinners on the table one by one and arranged them neatly.

"Miss Li~" Aunt Xu held Wan Wei's hand and handed the chopsticks into her palm, "It's time to eat dinner~"

Not only now, she has never said a word since she stepped into this house.

After a whole day of hard work and exhausted, Li Wanwei had long lost her appetite. She grabbed the bamboo chopsticks stiffly and stopped in the air, without temptation or meal.

Since entering this room, I have always looked like this, and I am not alive and listless as if I have lost my soul.

"The girl is already thin and thin, if she doesn't take a few bites of food, she may not be able to bear it."

Before this, Aunt Xu persuaded her over and over again, but she tried any advice one by one but had no practical use.

"Do you have blind books at home?" This is the first sentence Li Wanli said after entering the house, asking for a book.

Aunt Xu looked at the shelf where books were placed. The books on the shelf were all left by her son before the exam, and there were no blind books.

"My sister knew that her sister liked reading, so she ordered people to search all the blind books in the city and send them to her."

Wei Ling'er came in time and pushed open the door, followed by two guards, holding many books of various types in his hands. Their only common points were written in Braille.

Li Wanyi turned around, stretched his ears towards the door and slowly stood up, "You are..."

When Wei Ling'er saw Aunt Xu's mouths open one by one, she almost wanted to salute Ling'er.

When Mrs. Xu was about to salute Ling'er, she was stopped by Ling'er in time.

She waved her hand and told Aunt Xu to leave.

"My name is Wei Ling'er." Ling'er stretched out her hand to shake hands with Li Wan'er, but suddenly she remembered that her eyes could not see.

She took the initiative to hold Wan Wei's hand.

"I know that my sister is not suitable for life here for the first time when she came to Yangcheng. I heard from my second brother's entourage that you like to read books on war. Although time is tight, I still found these. I hope my sister can like it."

"Second brother?" Wan Li asked.

"Oh, it's Wei Hechu," Wei Ling'er replied, and asked someone to hand over the letter to Wan Li.

Wan Wei took the book and touched the book cover. He had not read the book for a long time since he was born. He felt that there was a lot of missing during these times. For people like Li Wan Wei, without spiritual nourishment, it would be like losing their bones...

She touched the chair and walked to the bookcase, put the book on the cabinet beside her and smiled warmly.

"So... you are his sister." Thinking of this, Wan Wei squatted down and bowed with the way of Yucheng's bow, "I've seen the princess"

She helped her up, "You are my second brother's benefactor, so I don't have to see me like this in the future."

Wan Wei smiled at the flower and sighed, "It's obviously a brother and sister, but his personality is completely different..."

Wan Wei lowered his head as he said this.

None of the other members of the royal family knows that Wei Hechu is the adopted son of his father.
