Wen Tingyuan suddenly reached out and touched her cheek, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
His palm was warm and dry, and when it fell on Qiao Yuyan's face, the fear and tension in her heart were relieved a lot.
Looking at the faint smile on his face, Qiao Yuyan was a little confused.
"What should we do? I have already done this," he came over, "I am afraid that you will be implicated in the serious crime of punishing the nine tribes."
Qiao Yuyan looked at him blankly.
Before this, she had never thought about it.
She just didn't understand why Wen Tingyuan did what he did, and it was only in hindsight that she realized what he meant.
But she was even more puzzled, "You..."
Wen Tingyuan tapped her forehead lightly, which suddenly made her thoughts clear.
"You don't have to worry. Since I did this, I have my reasons. You just have to be your sixth wife in the Wen family and wait quietly."
Qiao Yuyan looked at her steadily, "Is it because of me? Because he caught me?"
She didn't know why she asked this question, but she could only think of this answer at the moment.
But after she asked this question, she suddenly became nervous.
Because she suddenly discovered that she didn't know what kind of answer she should expect from him.
Wen Tingyuan also looked at her seriously. After a while, he suddenly stretched out his hand to pull the quilt up for her, "Yan'er, if you want to ask, I will tell you, but now... I am not telling you.
Your best chance. Do you really want to know?"
This is the second time he has said such things. Whenever she asks, he will say it.
Qiao Yuyan had ten thousand questions fighting in her mind, but it was inexplicably difficult to ask them at the moment.
In fact, she had no idea what kind of person Wen Tingyuan was.
She may be able to touch his true temperament, but she doesn't know what properties he has, what kind of people he associates with, and what he really wants.
In the past, she just thought that Uncle Wen was very mysterious. He often didn't see anyone for a long time, and he rarely interacted with the uncles of the Xu family.
But he could live in the Xu family so peacefully, and no one in the Xu family dared to be disrespectful to him.
Later, he went to unknown places, and when he came back, he was the illegitimate son of the Wen family.
But in this world, especially the illegitimate son of such a wealthy family, there is no one like him, whose demeanor and temperament are simply more outstanding than those of a legitimate son.
There are so many powerful people around him, and they all look elusive and have great martial arts skills.
And when he first came to the capital, how did he make friends with King An and Mr. Song?
I just discovered this night that he even has a good relationship with the Changxing Marquis Mansion. Is this something that ordinary people can do?
Just because Qiao Yuyan didn't ask, it didn't mean that she knew nothing.
But I always trusted and felt that Wen Tingyuan had his own way of life, and he always knew everything well.
But today she really started to feel scared. How much did he not know about this man? The fifth prince was the emperor's son!
And he is the prince who is very likely to inherit the throne.
Even though she felt that this man was not worthy of the position and did not have the slightest bearing of being the leader of the world, there was indeed a half chance that he would be able to sit in that position.
And the man next to her actually killed her right away.
Qiao Yuyan was silent for a long time and finally swallowed the words in her mouth.
Wen Tingyuan had been paying attention to her expression. He sighed softly when he saw this, and then when she didn't react, he stretched out his hand and took her in his arms.
Qiao Yuyan was startled. Before she reached out to push him away, she heard his gentle voice fall into her ear, "Yan'er, since you didn't ask, then I'll assume you believe me.
Don't worry, things will be over soon, remember, don't go anywhere during this period, you just stay at the Wen family, and if possible, don't even go out of your yard."
Qiao Yuyan became nervous when he said it, "You still want to..."
"No, no, don't think too much," he smiled again, and then let her go, "The fifth prince's matter will definitely be settled.
It has nothing to do with me. The Seventh Prince will handle this matter well. His Majesty does not have many days left. Now that he has no competitors, the most important thing is to be stable.
He will not let the death of the fifth prince be used to make a fuss or cause any trouble, but..."
He paused and said, "This seventh prince is so happy with his achievements and has no regard for face. The closer it gets to the last moment, the harder it will be for this kind of person to control himself. I'm afraid he will do something unexpected.
So, you can stay at home peacefully and just follow the old lady and the eldest lady. Of course, the men will be around for things outside."
He seemed to have the current situation under control, but Qiao Yuyan felt that the person in front of him suddenly felt far away from her.
He was so different from the man in her memory.
Wen Tingyuan seemed to see something, and he sighed softly, "You are in this situation now because of my wishful thinking. If you regret it in the future, I will let you do it."
This sentence was quite meaningless. Qiao Yuyan looked at him blankly, and after a while she wanted to ask, but he turned around first, "It's already very late, and you are exhausted. Go to sleep first! Anyway, I don't want to ask.
Back."
He had already said so, so Qiao Yuyan naturally couldn't ask any more questions.
What's more, she was indeed exhausted from the bumpy day and night. She originally wanted to sort out the events of the past two days, but her body couldn't help but control her.
She didn't even know when she fell asleep.
Wen Tingyuan waited until her breathing began to subside before he opened his eyes again, then gently put on his clothes and stood up.
When he walked out of the house, Miles Feng was already waiting for him in the yard. The master and servant walked out of the yard and met the people waiting there halfway.
"Sixth Master, the eldest master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Sure enough, Wen Qiongyu's study was brightly lit. As soon as he entered, he heard a sneer from the other party, "Sixth brother is so considerate and considerate. Such an important thing is happening now, and you have to worry about coaxing a woman first!"
Wen Qiongyu looked around and found that only Wen Qiongyu was in the study, and no one else was there. "Why are the third and fifth brothers not here?"
Wen Qiongyu was choked by his tepid look. He frowned and said angrily: "One of them only knows business and the other only knows reading. What can they say about Chou Yinmao? Just sit down.
What happened this morning?
I don’t believe that you led the Ministry of Punishment to Dali Temple to admit your mistake! The guard in front of the fifth prince was trained by the palace with great efforts, how can he still admit his mistake?"
Seeing him getting angry again as he spoke, Wen Tingyuan smiled and said, "Brother, don't be angry. Whatever you want to know, brother, I will tell you the truth."
