C137
A middle-aged man in a dark blue robe silently stood by the bed. He looked at Wen Lun in front of him and did not speak for a long time.
The sleeping Wen Lun's face was pale, completely devoid of his usual liveliness and liveliness.
The door behind him creaked open. The man turned around and saw a young man with a look of shock on his face.
The youth did not look to be around 30 years of age. He wore a wide-sleeved blue and white robe, and the jade ornaments around his waist were extremely beautiful. Each piece was worth over a thousand gold, and the satin cloth on his clothes cost over a hundred silver taels. Although this set of clothing did not appear luxurious, it was extremely exquisite. Ordinary Wealthy Classes would not necessarily be able to wear such casual clothes.
The youth walked in and placed the soup on the cabinet. He bowed slightly towards the man and asked with a smile, "When did uncle come back?"
"We've just arrived, but we haven't been able to find Bai Zhen."
The young man smiled, "I came late as well. I left the house a little later."
Bai Yutang looked at the person on the bed and said, "Ruan'er …"
The young man hurriedly interrupted him, "My brother's uncle knows. If no one is looking after him, it's hard to say what he will do. It's better if he sleeps for a while longer."
Knowing that he would not listen to his apology, he gave up. "Where's your father?"
Wen Wan smiled. "He doesn't know."
Bai Yutang stared blankly for a moment before letting out a bitter laugh. "I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it for long."
Wen Wan's smile dimmed a little, but he still asked about something else. "Uncle, don't you think it's strange that your nephew is not here this time?"
Hearing that, Bai Yutang was stunned and found it funny, "How would I know? "The news I received was that the servants of the Wen family said that their young master suddenly ran away and specifically emphasized that it was' young master '."
Wen Wan also smiled and raised his hand, indicating that he should take a step to speak.
Banyan looked at Wen Lun, who might wake up at any moment, then followed Wen Wan out, carefully closing the door behind him.
There was a warm smile on Wen Wan's white face, but her voice turned serious. "I went to the Beggar's Gang."
"Is it because of that matter?"
Wen Wan slightly nodded, his eyes carrying a few traces of a sigh, "The letter was sent directly to my home, I was not at home at the time, so after almost ten days, when I went back, I heard someone bring up this matter. "I was a bit concerned, so I went to ask Father for a letter. I planned to leave after the pleasure boat incident is over." Saying that, she sighed lightly, "After all, the seniors aren't interested. I only have the thought of asking and didn't really take it to heart, it seems that I was a step too late."
"That's right. I received the letter, but I didn't put it in my heart. After all, a few stores are not really that attractive, and I don't want to have anything to do with the Puppet Palace anymore. "
Wen Wan put his hand in his bosom, but after pausing for a moment, he came out empty-handed. His eyes were full of caution: "Forgive my nephew's disrespect, but I hope uncle can promise me a few things."
"What is it?"
Wen Wan said: "I believe that Uncle has also guessed that the Hou Family's matter this time involved a lot of other forces. My father and the marquis have been friends for many years, so he definitely won't sit by and do nothing. I got some information from the gang... It was something unexpected. "I don't want my family to know that the Wen family can't bear another calamity." His expression was somewhat guilty, but it was abnormally firm.
"From my point of view, I hope that you will not get involved as much as possible. After that calamity, your vitality has been greatly damaged, and you no longer have a deep foundation that can be used to fight and kill others. "
"Thank you for understanding, Uncle." Wen Wan thanked him and added, "Also, after uncle has read this letter, please calm down and consider whether or not to interfere in this matter." He then took out a letter that he had kept with him and passed it to Bai Yan Tang.
He took it and looked Wen Wan in the eye. When he saw him nod, he took out the letter and read it one word at a time.
It was a piece of cloth, and the cloth had turned slightly yellow. It was obvious that it had been worn for many years. The words were not written, but were embroidered with a dark red thread. It was very neat.
Only a few dozen words, from the martial arts world to the government, then to the shopping mall, the weathered Bai Yan Tang's fingers began to tremble slightly.
He lifted up his shocked eyes and looked at Wen Wan, who had a worried look in his eyes. "You've seen it too?"
Wen Wei nodded. "I will keep this a secret."
He shook his head to show that he had misunderstood him, but was powerless to say more. "Where did you get this from?"
Even though he knew that there would be no one around, Wen Wan still lowered his voice slightly: "The Beggar Clan's Vice Sect Leader Jiang Suo is the Vermillion Bird Hall's Hall Master Yang Shaoen. I got this from one of his trusted aides. "His original words were 'Master told me to hand this over to the White Emperor or Palace Master Ran.'"
Seeing this item, naturally, even Bai Yutang could guess that it was given to him. He silently nodded his head and then couldn't help but ask, "Then how did you get it?"
Wen Wan looked somewhat embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "When I went there, this person had already been imprisoned on the charge of faking the order of the Sect Master. He was beaten to the point where he was on the verge of death. If I say that I am Bai Zhen, I will pass the items to my father untouched. " When he said "unchanged", his cheeks couldn't help but slightly flush.
A hint of a smile flashed in Bai Yan Tang's eyes. "He believes it?"
Wen Wan shook his head. "He doesn't believe it …" He said that he looked a lot older than me and that Young Master Bai should be at least five or six years younger than me. I said... "Cough." I can't say anything more, but seeing that Bai Yutang's mood had improved, he clenched his teeth and said, "I said my father is very old-fashioned, forcing me to learn the teachings of the sages every day. That's why he looks a few years older. I also said that if you don't believe me, I can give you a set of Ling Ge fist techniques. After that, I gave him a few of my impromptu moves in a mess, and he believed me. "
Bai Yan Tang couldn't help but chuckle. "You sure know how to deceive people."
Wen Wan sighed. "Yes, it was a good thing we cheated them. I almost got caught. "
Bai Yutang was startled and asked, "You didn't sneak over, did you?"
"Ugh …" Wen Wan's face, which had just returned to normal, turned red again, "Cough, cough, I was preparing my card. However, after I went over to inquire, I heard that there is a Deputy Sect Master who is extremely daring and dares to send a letter in the name of the Sect Master. I don't think they'd let me see their prisoners if I went in openly, would they? "I might as well run in while they're not paying attention."
"You're the dignified young master of the Wen family, a famous man in the martial arts world. What if someone catches you and captures you?"
Wen Wan rubbed his nose and laughed dryly. "It shouldn't be that bad. I've never been discovered when I climbed over the wall since I was young."
Looking at the silk in his hand, Bai Yan Tang couldn't help but sigh, "Forget it, luckily you managed to climb over this wall."
Wen Wan also stopped joking around, silently nodding his head. "Originally, I thought that ten years have passed, but in the end, I was still unable to escape from this matter."
"The thing I'm most afraid of is that little spark won't be able to get away. Revolving the ashes wouldn't be as simple as a counterattack."
Wen Wan was speechless. After a long time, he softly asked, "Do you want to interfere in this matter?"
Bai Yan Tang shook his head, "I don't know. I still can't clearly see who is on the other side, and I don't know who is on my side."
Whether it was intentional or not, Wen Wan unintentionally whispered, "It depends on who Uncle intends to stand on."
"What about you?"
Wen Wan smiled. "I'm on Uncle's side."
He lowered his head to look at the rolled up silk in his hand. "Do you mind if I take care of this?"
Wen Wan made a casual gesture with his hand. "To me, this thing is just a hot potato. Uncle is willing to accept it."
After putting the cloth back into his pocket, Bai Yan Tang suddenly asked, "Do you decide to take care of this matter? He had already made up his mind. Once he intervened, there was no guarantee that he would be able to escape unscathed. Don't forget, you represent your entire Wen family. "
Wen Wan said: "Under the premise that my family can leave safely, I only have half of the Wen family left in my hands. And I believe that Uncle will really need this half of the Wen family. "
"It's not about whether or not I need it. It's about me making you think about it carefully. It's not too late to leave now. Are you worth the risk? "
Wen Wan's dark eyes were solemn. "I don't know what else is left in the Manchu Mansion, but I believe Big Brother Xia and Qing Han will definitely take revenge. Even if you don't consider my second brother's thoughts, it's also impossible for me to see Big Brother Xia take the risk alone. Right now, he only had no roots. If he wanted to find someone to rely on, that person was destined to be his uncle. "Then I'll just stand behind you guys."
"Xia Qingshui …" "But where do I go to find him?"
Wen Wan looked at him in silence. After a while, he softly opened his mouth and said, "Uncle, even if we can't clearly see what's in front of us, we still have to move forward. If... I mean, if the final outcome ends in failure, I hope I can at least send Cho Zhao and my second brother away. "
Bai Yutang looked at him with some confusion. "You clearly know that our chances of losing are the highest. Why did you come in here?"
Wen Wan only lightly said, "If I join, I still have a chance of winning." But if I just sit there and do nothing, how can I win?
He did not say the rest because his personality made him unable to say such cruel words. Besides, even if he didn't tell her, she would understand.
Bai Yutang was speechless. He wanted to say something, but there was really nothing he could say.
The trees a dozen or so steps away were lightly blown by the wind. The two people who were relatively silent simultaneously looked in that direction, a cold light flashing across their eyes. "Who's there?"
