Chapter 87 Trust
Author: Glowing Fish
"No, I'm just an ordinary person who gets paid to do things."
Wen Chengyun withdrew his gaze, flicked the hem of his elastic coat, and jumped down from the eaves with a lift of air.
Jin Wuwei took a deep look at the nurse who was busy looking for someone below. After hearing Wen Chengyun's words, he had no choice but to give up. Then he landed and began to report the situation: "Since the Lord and his family left the capital, the situation in the court has temporarily calmed down.
Come down..."
Wen Chengyun listened to Jin Wuwei's report and frowned deeply. The farther away from the capital he was, the more at ease Big Fish behind him would be. Now that he has been in exile for a while, Big Fish's defenses should have relaxed a lot, otherwise he would not be so blatant.
The local people wanted to assassinate him to avoid future trouble...
"The Holy One heard about the assassination of His Majesty in Beijing, and specially gave the medicine to his subordinates. The person behind it is ruthless, and I ask you to be careful in everything..."
As Jin Wuwei spoke, he took out an exquisite box that exuded cold air from his pocket. It contained pills that could save his life at critical moments.
"My lord, why don't I send some brothers to protect you secretly? My lord doesn't need it, but the family members will always be alone..."
Jin Wuwei has been loyal to the Qingping Palace for generations. He cares more about the safety of his master Wen Chengyun than the emperor's orders. The secret protection power should be an extra layer of protection.
Your Majesty values friendship. Even if the assassin cannot do anything to your Majesty, there is no guarantee that he will not resort to other methods to attack his family members...
"It's nonsense. You can't act rashly without my order. Assassination is not a bad thing. The big fish behind it has lost its composure. Since it has murderous intentions, it must be given a chance to catch others and follow the clues..."
Wen Chengyun frowned and dismissed it without even thinking about it. From the moment he was exiled, he had already been prepared to use his body as bait. He finally survived until now. There is a possibility of the fish biting the hook, so of course he cannot do the opposite.
Follow the path...
"What the Lord is teaching me is that my subordinates did not think carefully."
There was a hint of worry in Jin Wuwei's eyes, but he still respected Wen Chengyun's thoughts.
"Okay, let's break up. I've been away for too long, and the nursing home should be suspicious."
Wen Chengyun glanced at the direction of the alley. It was very lively with people coming and going. He could vaguely hear the irritable words of the nursing home looking for someone. There were many drivers who were digging deep to find someone...
"King Qingping, what a coincidence, I'm shopping alone. It's almost time to go back home, it's getting dark..."
The nurse turned his eyes and suddenly noticed Wen Chengyun walking from the opposite street, and immediately approached him with a smile on his face.
This damn man was quite fast, but if he was lost for a short while, it would be fine. However, the guard was in a bad mood, so naturally he didn't look good.
When the nursing home led Wen Chengyun back to the exile compound, Cheng Weiyao was cutting the fruit plate.
The fruits at QQ Farm have matured again. Considering that everyone is eating dry food cakes during this period, she plans to improve the food.
Since it is expressly prohibited to light fires, we can only work on fruits. Considering the apparent embarrassment of the Qingping Palace, Cheng Weiyao specifically chose wild fruits that were successfully transplanted and cultivated during the exile.
Children are not picky about food and are not so curious. When they saw something to eat, they naturally gathered around and waited eagerly. Cheng Weiyao, who was surrounded by everyone, seemed to be the king of children.
"Princess Qingping is still very powerful. She can always find new tricks. Why don't we have this ability..."
"Your eyes are bright. Haven't you heard that they are all picked in the wild? If you really don't know me, just eat it steadily and remember the good things about Prince Qingping's Mansion. Let our children have nothing to do and get closer to Wen Chengming..."
Everyone felt miraculous when looking at the gentle Cheng Weiyao, especially the female relatives who completely regarded Cheng Weiyao as a model of female virtue. Although she was not an ordinary lady, "the man is the master outside and the woman is the master inside."
Good to find a second one...
"Brother is back. Do you want to try it? My sister-in-law just cut it. It's sweet and delicious..."
Wen Chengming saw Wen Chengyun coming in and ran over with a freshly baked fruit plate.
Wen Chengyun showed a gentle smile to Wen Chengming, reached for a sliced fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.
He had just come back from the street. Almost the whole town had been visited. There were very few wild fruit trees, and even if they did bear fruit, most of them were small.
But the fruit that Cheng Weiyao distributed to everyone was big, plump, juicy and sweet. It was definitely not something that could be grown in wild conditions. This lady had many secrets...
Cheng Weiyao, who was cutting the fruit plate, felt Wen Chengming's gaze. Her slicing hands paused slightly. After cutting the last stack of fruit plates, she washed her hands and took the initiative to sit next to Wen Chengyun.
"You think I'm lying? These fruits don't look like they were picked from the wild?"
Her words were straightforward, and such a straightforward question made Wen Chengyun a little stunned. Even though he had doubts in his heart, he subconsciously believed that she would not harm anyone, so he did not investigate the origin. Unexpectedly, the lady came over on her own initiative.
Are you ready to confess?
"I can understand your concerns, but the fruits come from the right way, whether you believe it or not. Anyway, I didn't steal or rob. If I had the intention to harm the palace, I would have done it long ago. I don't have to follow you around."
Cheng Weiyao glanced at Wen Chengyun's side face and sounded a little helpless. Although they seemed to be sleeping with each other, in fact they still had a grudge against each other before.
Now that she is in exile, she has vaguely noticed that Wen Chengyun is playing a big game, and he is even willing to use the entire Qingping Palace and his own safety as bait. Although she doesn't know what he wants to do, it must not be a trivial matter...
After saying what was in her heart, Cheng Weiyao looked away, lowering her head and feeling a little uneasy. The next second, her shoulder was blocked by a warm arm. She raised her eyes and met Wen Chengyun's soft eyes.
"I understand and I believe Madam. Her husband's intentions are not small, and Madam's intelligence should also be aware of it."
Wen Chengyun spoke at a moderate speed and in a soft tone. He understood Cheng Weiyao's meaning. Seeing the big from the small, the wild fruit incident reflected his distrust of her. Walking side by side until now, the suspicious eyes are indeed a bit hurtful...
"Not just because we haven't arrived at the right time, but because this matter is not trivial. It is much safer not to know than to know..."
"As a trader, my husband will naturally think more carefully than me, an outsider..."
Cheng Weiyao's cheeks were slightly red, she felt the heat on her shoulders rising a little, and her heart felt a little sweet.
Wen Chengyun is willing to speak, even if he only mentions some peripheral things, it shows that he still has some weight...
