Chapter 389



“What’s wrong, Marquis Hua Yang? Are you alright?” Yan Huaijing smiled even more gently and elegantly.

Only Little Dezi, who was standing behind him, couldn’t help but lean back. Someone had provoked the heir-apparent. It was better for him to keep a distance now.

“In that small town…” Wei Luowen slowly adjusted his expression. He forced a smile and slowly sat down again. “How could there be a Prince’s mansion in that small town? I find it strange!”

There were some things that no one had ever known, or rather, most of the people who knew about them had died. The ones who survived were all his trusted servants. It was impossible for Yan Huaijing to know about this. A fierce look flashed across Wei Luowen’s eyes.

This matter was of great importance, and it was no longer a matter concerning his life alone!

“Well, I’m not clear either. I just heard that Prince Bei’an used to like to visit that place and he even brought his favorite woman to stay there for a period of time, so I went to take a look for the sake of my curiosity. Hmm, is my guess correct? Was there really a Prince’s mansion?” Yan Huaijing smiled evilly, and his fingers gently tapped on the table again, looking relaxed and tranquil.

Wei Yuewu was suddenly shocked. Prince Bei’an Mansion!

She could now be sure that the mansion of Duke of Jing was the former Prince Bei’an Mansion, but she had never expected that Prince Bei’an had actually been to the small town where she was almost assassinated and lived there for some time.

As the most beloved son of the Emperor at that time, why did Prince Bei’an go to such a rural and small town for a vacation? The reason would not be so simple. What was he doing in the town?

Moreover, judging from her father’s reaction, she could tell that he was aware of this. At first, she thought that it was related to her mother or her maternal grandparents. Only now did she realize that not only her mother but her father also had something to do with Prince Bei’an Mansion.

She had a suspicion about her second uncle too. Why did he keep away the private collection of books about Prince Bei’an Mansion? Was it for a simple personal reason or more than that?

The plot thickened. Because of Wei Luowen’s unexpected reaction, Wei Yuewu felt more and more confused. The mist of mystery was growing bigger and bigger as if it was going to engulf the entire mansion of Marquis Hua Yang.

Prince Bei’an Mansion and the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang seemed to be closely related, but she could not find any trace of contact!

Her eyes flashed, and she glanced at Wei Luowen without batting an eyelid. Then, she glanced at Yan Huaijing and happened to bump into his enchanting, charming, affectionate, and smiley eyes. She hurriedly retracted her gaze and feigned calmness. Did Yan Huaijing know something that she didn’t?

Was it really not a coincidence that he saved her?

It was a pleasant surprise that she could hear such an exciting secret during this trip.

“Oh, there is such a rumor. I’m sorry, but I have been at the border for so long that I have always been ignorant,” Wei Luowen grunted with a cold expression.

“In fact, these rumors have always been spreading and circulating in the society. It is said that Prince Bei’an had left a large sum of money, waiting for the opportunity to rise again. Unfortunately, he had been imprisoned for so many years and had no way to escape. Because of this, the enormous wealth was buried in vain.”

Yan Huaijing narrowed his eyes and smiled leisurely. “Well, there is also another rumor that said Prince Bei’an had escaped from his imprisonment and is now hiding among the commoners, waiting for a chance to strike back and rise.”

Yan Huaijing’s remarks were a mixture of truth and false, and they were all rumors, so it was hard to distinguish if they were facts or hoaxes. However, when Wei Luowen heard his so-called confusing nonsense, he felt his heart skip a beat. He tried hard to suppress the shock in his heart, but the underlying meaning in Yan Huaijing’s words still terrified him, so much so that his expression was slightly tense.

Thanks to his time in the military since he was young, he was good at controlling his emotions. After a brief moment of being shocked, he calmed down. While glancing at Yan Huaijing, he picked up the tea beside him and took a sip. Then, he asked coldly, “Your Heir-apparent, why do you tell me this? Do you think that Yuewu’s assassination has something to do with this matter?”

“Well, perhaps it’s related! If Prince Bei’an’s treasure was really stored at that place, it would attract the attention of greedy people. It was possible that someone misunderstood Sixth Miss Wei’s presence in that town and tried to kill her!” Yan Huaijing laughed and said leisurely.

“Your Heir-apparent, please don’t joke around. When the former Emperor was alive, he had banned all kinds of topics about Prince Bei’an Mansion!” Wei Luowen snapped in a deep voice.

“It has been so many years. Even if Prince Bei’an went a little overboard, it had already passed. Moreover, Prince Bei’an didn’t rebel in the end. Why did the Emperor forbid anyone to mention him? They were a family. Why did the Emperor treat him so harshly?” Yan Huaijing raised his handsome eyes. He looked like a ruffian, but at the same time, he looked elegant and mystifying.

However, he did not show much respect to the former Emperor and Prince Bei’an by saying such statements.

Of course, Wei Luowen knew that with Yan Huaijing’s current status, he would not be apprehended even after saying such harsh words. With State of Yan’s backing, he could be pompous, and no one would dare to easily make a move against him.

“Thank you for saving Yuewu’s life!” Wei Luowen didn’t want to pursue this topic and keep beating around the bush, so he directly changed the subject. “This time, I specially came to express my gratitude. I will continue to investigate Yuewu’s assassination. I can’t let her be frightened for nothing!”

“Frightened? Don’t you think that’s a bit of an understatement? If it weren’t for me who was at the right place at the right time, Sixth Young Lady would have died. The people wouldn’t have known that Marquis Hua Yang loves not only his concubine’s daughter but also his legitimate daughter!” Yan Huaijing raised his eyebrows and leaned back lazily.

However, his remarks irritated Wei Luowen again. He furiously slammed his hand on the table and barked, “Your Heir-apparent, what do you mean by that?!”

“Does it matter? The people only know that Sixth Miss Wei was abandoned by her own father and had been ignored for years. It was perhaps because of this that the series of unfortunate events kept happening to her. May I know if Third Miss Wei, who grew up beside you and has been protected by you all the time, ever encounter such a thing? In fact, I did say a SERIES of unfortunate events, didn’t I? Don’t you think you should investigate it carefully?”

Yan Huaijing raised his eyes, and his smile became gentler and more elegant, but Wei Luowen was rendered speechless.

Then, Wei Luowen turned to look at Wei Yuewu, who had been lowering her head, and the guilt in his eyes was more obvious.

Compared with his eldest daughter, this youngest daughter was indeed in a lot of crises and disasters. She was blessed to be able to survive until now. He thought that he was doing the right thing, but actually, it caused more harm to her!

“I will handle Yuewu’s matter!” Wei Luowen took a deep breath and affirmed.

“I remember giving you a painting before, right? This is what I meant!” Yan Huaijing suddenly stopped asking and changed the topic.

A painting? Wei Yuewu blinked and looked at Yan Huaijing in confusion. She didn’t know when Yan Huaijing gave her father a painting, nor did she know what the painting was and why the atmosphere between her father and Yan Huaijing suddenly became strange?

Wei Luowen began to breathe heavily. He wanted to suppress the anger in his heart, but he couldn’t suppress it even after a few deep breaths. How could he let his daughter become Yan Huaijing’s concubine?!

“Your Heir-apparent, Yuewu’s matter is none of your business. From now on, I hope that you can keep a distance from Yuewu. I will send a big gift on your wedding day if you marry the Princess one day!” Wei Luowen hissed the words out from his gnashing teeth.

With Wei Luowen’s vicious expression, he looked more like to be here to quarrel rather than to express his gratitude.

Wei Luowen was literally hinting Yan Huaijing had come to the capital to marry the Princess, so he should stay away from Wei Yuewu. In fact, he hoped that Yan Huaijing would stop approaching Wei Yuewu for the sake of the favor of rescuing her.

“Well, it was up to the Emperor whether I can marry the Princess or not. The State of Yan has always been loyal to the Emperor, so I will obey his order wholeheartedly. I don’t really mind the gesture of expressing your gratitude to me because I am even more delighted that I have the chance to get to know Sixth Miss Wei. By the way, I picked up something that Sixth Young Lady dropped at that time. I wonder if she still wants it?”

Yan Huaijing spoke in such a respectful manner, but the meaning behind his words irritated Wei Luowen, making him feel like his warning was in vain.

“What is it?” Wei Luowen had an inexplicable sense of vigilance toward Yan Huaijing.

Wei Yuewu also raised her head skeptically, surprised to know that Yan Huaijing had her belonging. She remembered that other than a few unwanted books, she lost literally everything that day.

Mo Huating executed his plan very well. He did not leave anything for her.

“Actually, it’s not a big deal. It’s actually a person!” Yan Huaijing chuckled leisurely.

“A person?” Wei Yuewu suddenly stood up, looking worked up and unable to hide her excitement. “W-Who is it?”

Did someone survive that ordeal? It was totally beyond her expectation.

“Calm down, Sixth Young Lady. Actually, it’s not a person, but something that a person dropped. Also, I’m quite puzzled to figure out whether this thing belongs to you or not.” Yan Huaijing smiled lazily.

“What is it?” Wei Yuewu’s breathing also quickened. Even though she told herself that whatever this cunning fox said might not be reliable, she could not help but widen her lively eyes in anticipation.

“Little Dezi, bring the thing over!” Yan Huaijing ordered with a smile.

Little Dezi responded and walked out from behind him with a very small box in his hand. It didn’t look exquisite or special, but Wei Yuewu stood up in astonishment. She was very familiar with the box and even knew what was inside because she had carried the box with her everywhere she went since she was a child.

She had always thought that she had lost the box forever, but to her ultimate surprise, it was not gone! She was over the moon! She stood up and walked a few steps forward involuntarily, her clear eyes filled with indescribable joy. This was something that her mother had left for her, and she had always brought it with her.

Behind her, Wei Luowen gasped in shock and disbelief, and his expression changed dramatically. He was about to extend his hand when he realized that Yan Huaijing was staring at him with his sharp eyes, and he quickly retracted his hand and put it on the table.

That thing? It was that thing? Did Rui’er have it all along? Why did he know nothing about it?!
