"I said I won't eat!" Get the hell out of here! " Just as he pushed the door open and walked in, a vase was thrown at him with an angry roar.

Bai Zhen dodged to the side, avoiding the vase. He steadily caught the vase with his right hand and casually placed it on a shelf that was already empty. Still angry at me? "

Wen Lun turned his head and saw the smiling Bai Zhen. He was slightly startled. "Why is it you?"

Bai Zhen swept his leg across the ground as his inner force swept the fragments of the rock to the wall. "Was I the one who was surprised?"

Wen Lun sat down on the bed and asked, "Why did they let you in?" Didn't my brother ask Wen Ning to guard the door, and other than him, no one else is allowed in? "

Bai Zhen found a chair with a crippled leg that seemed to be able to hold his weight and leisurely said, "That's right. That's why it took me so long to sneak in and see you. How about it? Are you feeling better? "

Wen Lun curled his lips. "Do you need me to smash another vase on you to express my feelings?"

Bai Zhen shrugged. "I have two good news to tell you. Are you going to listen?"

Wen Lun snorted. "What good news can there be? The Marquis is alive? Or was my brother beaten to the point where he couldn't leave the house? "

Bai Zhen sighed regretfully, "The first one is obviously impossible. But for the second one, it should be enough for you to fulfill your wish. "

"What happened to my brother?" Wen Lun asked subconsciously. Realizing that his reaction was too concerned, he changed his tone and asked coldly, "Did you receive retribution?"

Bai Zhen saw that he was trying to be brave and did not point it out. Instead, he drew in a deep breath and slowly said, "Ah …" Your brother, a few days ago he … "Sigh …"

Wen Lun was thoroughly angered by him. "Bai Zhen, speak properly!"

Bai Zhen laughed. "Alright, alright, alright. Don't be angry. If you roar so loudly and call Wen Ning over, I won't be able to tell you anything."

Wen Lun rolled his eyes to express his disapproval. However, his voice had returned to normal. "Then quickly say it."

Bai Ju said, "A few days ago, your brother accepted Candle Sluggish's challenge letter and was stabbed with a few swords, cut a few blades, whipped a few times, slapped a few hidden weapons, and poisoned a few times."

Wen Lun's mouth twitched and he gnashed his teeth. "It's better if you shut your mouth."

Bai Zhen laughed, "Alright, let's not joke. Big Brother Wen did indeed go to accept the challenge, but he's fine now. "

Wen Lun breathed a sigh of relief and asked again, "What's the second good news?"

Bai Zhen's face was filled with surprise. "You can't really think that this is good news, right?"

Wen Lun stared blankly for a moment and then reacted. He could not help but feel annoyed. "My mood is not good and my mind is a mess. Can you not be so picky?"

Bai Zhen asked, "Mind your own business?"

Wen Lun hesitated for a moment and did not refute. He only said, "Continue speaking."

When the call came to an end, Bai Zhen did not speak anymore, "The first good news is that Young Prince has activated his martial arts to adjust her condition. Her condition has already improved significantly, she should be able to wake up in the next two days."

Wen Lun was slightly startled, his face showed joy. "Really? Some time ago, Wen Ning and I asked him about the situation and he said that Qing Han's condition was not optimistic and it would be a long time before she could wake up. "

Bai Ju said, "I'm not sure about the specifics, but I heard from Big Brother Wen that the young prince used the acupuncture and also assisted with internal force to force out the clotted blood in Qing Han's body, so her condition immediately became better."

Wen Lun hesitated for a moment. In the end, he could not help but ask, "Is she well?"

Bai Zhen nodded, "Don't worry. Everything is fine with her. When I have free time with the young prince, I would visit her and sit with her for a while. Listening to the young prince, although Qing Han was not conscious, she could vaguely feel the care and concern of others around her. "Accompanying her will be beneficial to her condition."

Wen Lun sighed lightly. With a self-reproach look in his eyes, he said, "Sorry for the trouble. I haven't visited her for such a long time."

Bai Zhen smiled faintly. "It doesn't matter. She knows that you will accompany her."

Wen Lun was stunned. "She knows?" I never visited her. "

Bai Ju said, "Because you care about her, don't you? Even if you're not with her, she'll know how much you care about her. And a couple of times she called your name in her dreams.

Wen Lun's eyes darkened. However, he still revealed a trace of a smile. "That's good, that's good."

Bai Zhen heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that the other party had not suspected what he had just said, "Oh right, there's still the second good thing that I have to tell you. His father and Big Brother Wen had gone out, so they wouldn't be able to return in the next few days. Qing Han is also almost awake, go and see her. "

When Wen Lun heard the last sentence, his eyes lit up and then dimmed down. With a bitter face, he said, "The young prince is also in the mansion. So what if I went to visit Qing Han?"

Bai Ju said, "You and Qing Han have known each other since childhood. Besides being lovers, you are also friends. Qing Han did not marry the young prince, she was just going to visit him, so what can she do? "

Wen Lun was silent for a long time before he said in a low voice, "It's better to have a long pain than a short one. I don't want to add to my worries by making this young prince misunderstand."

Bai Zhen was not surprised by his reaction, but he could not help but sigh. "I understand this point, it would be a form of torture for both of you if you were to come into contact with each other again. But... When Qinghan Ye wakes up, other than you, who else can give her comfort? "

"Young Prince …" "Can't you?"

Bai Zhen laughed bitterly, "The two of them have never met, nor do they know each other. The only connection he had was a marriage contract and a title. With Qing Han's personality, how could she be willing to cry in front of a stranger? "Not to mention crying, I'm afraid you won't even reveal a hint of weakness, right?

Wen Wan replied, "I know her very well, but the name you mentioned is enough to keep us apart. Even though they were close in the past, they should still be strangers now. Rather than to just let it continue to add to our worries, we might as well just let it end here. "

Bai Zhen did not insist. "Have you decided?"

Wen Lun nodded. "As for Qing Han, I'll leave it to you."

Bai Zhen sighed, "That's fine too, I'll just say this to you, so that you won't regret it in the future. I was afraid that you would be too stubborn and take the wrong path, and now that I see you thinking about it, it's a good thing. "

Wen Lun fell onto the bed. He reached out his hand to cover his head with the quilt. After a moment, he suddenly threw it away. "Why aren't you leaving?"

Bai Zhen was taken aback, but he did not say anything more. He stood up and said, "Then I'll leave first. You should rest early."

"I'm sorry, I didn't kick you out."

Bai Zhen walked up to the door and heard Wen Lun speaking in a somewhat tearful tone, but he still forced himself to suppress his voice. He pursed his lips and closed his eyes. After a moment, he opened his eyes, "You don't need to apologize to me. If you want to apologize, it's my turn to apologize to you."

"What are you apologizing for? What qualifications do I have to accept your apology? "

Bai Zhen looked at the wooden door in front of him and pursed his lips. "That night, I should have rushed in together with you."

"Huh?" Wen Lun laughed mockingly. "Why are you rushing in? Died? "Leaving the city and directing the rescue is the best choice, isn't it?"

Bai Zhen slowly replied, "I thought so back then, but in reality, it wasn't." If... I did not rush in to save Qing Han, but made the same choice as me. Could it be that Qing Han is no longer here? "

Wen Lun was speechless.

Bai Zhen laughed bitterly as he bit his lower lip, expelling all the blood. "I still lack that bit of courage."

Wen Lun calmed down and shook his head. "Are you confident that you can break through the layers of array formation and bring Qing Han out?"

Bai Jian said, "Now that the formation has been destroyed, I'm familiar with the road to Hou Mansion, so there's always some hope."

"Actually, ever since I knew that the young prince had risked his life to save me, I had truly given up." Wen Wan was lying on the bed with his arms outstretched, staring at the curtain above him.

"Is that so?" A trace of pain appeared briefly in the depths of Bai Zhen's eyes, then disappeared without a trace. His lips also revealed a smile. "That's good."

After a long time, Wen Lun sat up and suddenly said, "Shang Zhao, can you accompany me to the house of the Marquis?"

His tone sounded somewhat unfamiliar and polite. Bai Zhen turned his head, but did not say anything. He only nodded his head. "Let's go." He pushed the door open and walked out.

Wen Lun took a deep breath, clenched his fist to give himself some courage, and followed out.

Walking side by side with Bai Zhen, Wen Lun sized up the scenery along the road. "I remember that many years ago, you often visited this place. Now, if you look again, you have become unfamiliar."

Bai Zhen glanced at him and said indifferently, "After the branch family arrives, I'll probably move in here. You can come over anytime."

Wen Lun was startled. "Branch family? "Why are you so early?"

Bai Jian said: "Maybe because I'm a little tired, I don't want to put up with it any longer. "Moreover, at my age I should start a family. It would be good to train for a few years by myself."

Wen Lun frowned slightly. "Family? Is it uncle's idea? "

"No, I meant it myself." Bai Zhen shook his head gently. "You know that father has never really cared about my affairs."

Wen Lun hesitated for a moment. In the end, he could not help but ask, "You already have a suitable candidate?"

Bai Zhen smiled. "No, that's why I said I've been training for a few years."

Wen Lun asked, "Would you mind bringing me along?"

Bai Zhen looked at him and laughed. "Do you know where I'm going?"

Wen Lun shrugged. "Anyway, it's fine if I follow you." Besides, as long as you don't stay at home, you can go anywhere. "

Bai Zhen lowered his eyes and looked at his own palm, slowly clenching it. "I'm going to pay my respects to my master and practice martial arts."

Wen Lun was stunned. He even forgot to walk. "What?"

Bai Zhen took a few steps forward and turned around after realizing that he had not caught up to him. He looked at him and repeated, "I want to go and learn martial arts under my master."

Wen Lun did not understand. "Your martial arts skills are outstanding among your peers. Ling Ge Palace's martial arts are well-known throughout the martial arts world. Uncle is also a famous martial arts expert. Why do you need to seek further?"

"If I don't leave, Father will not be able to concentrate on teaching me the Bai Luo martial arts."

Wen Lun was stunned for a long time, but he still could not understand what Bai Luo meant: "What does your leaving or not have to do with Bai Luo?"

Bai Zhen explained, "I am the eldest son. He is the second son born from a concubine. Everything in the Bai Clan does not belong to him. His second grandfather had never even admitted that Bai Luo was a descendant of the Ling Ge Palace. Maybe, when he becomes an adult, he will only receive a little bit of money which will be enough to make a fuss about for the rest of his life. "

Wen Lun frowned slightly. "Is this not enough?"

Bai Zhen sighed, "I can see that my father is feeling guilty towards him, and he can't even bring himself to blame him for his crimes. As long as I'm still at home, Bai Luo will never have any thoughts of working hard. "

Hearing this, Wen Lun understood a lot. "So you plan to leave, and even plan to give up those things that should have been yours, as an inspiration for Bai Luo's hard work? Are you sick? "

Bai Ju said: "Second Grandpa does not care about the so-called 'being the next Emperor'. If Bai Luo is outstanding enough, Second Grandpa should not be so heartless."

Wen Lun did not wait for him to finish and interrupted him. "Why did you give in so easily for his sake? Don't you know what they did to you? "

Bai Jian said, "What belongs to me still belongs to me, after all, there is a difference between the two. All I did was leave him for a few years and give him some leeway to work. Besides, no matter how much my aunt tried to dissuade me, it wouldn't change the fact that Poirot is my younger brother. It's meaningless to cut off my little brother's retreat path. "

Wen Lun curled his lips. "They are heartless. You insist on righteousness. What a good older brother."

"It has nothing to do with kindness or righteousness, what I care about is not Bai Luo." Bai Zhen smiled and continued to walk forward, "Father is unwilling to sit idly while Hou Mansion is being massacred. But these days, I heard from my father that there might be danger if we continued the investigation. I have nothing to share with my father. Then all I can do is get stronger. Staying in the Bai Clan to pamper and nurture, how can you become stronger? "

Wen Lun did not understand. "If you take such a risk and step into the martial arts world, is it worth it?"

Bai Ju said, "I was in the Jianghu. "As for whether or not it is worth it …" He smiled. "As long as my departure can make Father worry less about us, it's worth it."

Wen Lun said, "But …" Slowly and silently, there was nothing to say.

Bai Zhen asked, "How is it? Now, are you still planning on going with me to gain experience? "

Wen Lun asked, "Have you already decided?"

Bai Zhen nodded. "I've decided. Once the affairs of the marquis estate have been settled, I'll go and discuss it with father."

Wen Lun rubbed his head. "Then we'll talk about it later."

Bai Zhen did not say much. "Alright." He walked forward, but suddenly stopped after taking a few steps.

Wen Lun nearly bumped into him and could not help but frown. "What happened?"

Bai Zhen's gaze wavered. "Young prince."

Wen Lun followed his gaze and saw Zhao Qingyan standing not far away with her head raised. His expression slightly changed. "I'll go first. I'll wait for you outside the door." He didn't wait for Bai Zhen to stop him and changed his direction to a big one.

Bai Zhen had no choice but to bow towards Zhao Qingyan, "Zi Yu, his personality is always like this. I've let the young prince down."

Zhao Qingyan smiled without a care. "Young Master Wen rarely comes out for a walk today. You must have felt a lot better, right?"

Bai Ju said: "He had nothing to do for a long time, just to be angry with his brother. On the other hand, young prince, are you alright now? "

Zhao Qingyan smiled. "It is just that I am not feeling well. It is nothing serious. Master Bai is worried."

Bai Ju said, "It's good that the young prince is fine. In the late autumn, many people have fallen ill. Young Marquis, why are you not following us when you came out today? "

Zhao Qingyan said, "The medicinal ingredients we need are almost used up. I'll have Hao go buy them."

Bai Zhen was at a loss for words. "If that's not enough medicinal ingredients, you can just tell me. I'll just teach my subordinates to buy it."

Zhao Qingyan laughed, "Hao, you have taken care of me for so many days. The room is filled with the smell of medicine. Now that I'm well, I should find a reason to let him relax. "

Bai Zhen looked at his pale, paper-like face. How could he possibly believe his words, "His condition is extremely good"? After hesitating for a moment, it was difficult for him to ask any further questions. He only said, "The young prince has just recovered from a serious illness. It's better to leave someone by his side to take care of him."

Zhao Qingyan nodded. "Thank you for the reminder, Master Bai. I will pay attention."

"It is rare for the young prince to enjoy the scenery alone. I will not disturb you any longer."

Zhao Qingyan cupped his hands and said, "Please, Master Bai." He turned his gaze back to the branches and leaves.

Bai Zhen glanced at Zhao Qingyan, who was wrapped in a long fur coat and holding a furnace in her hands, before turning around to leave.

"Young Master?" After Bai Zhen's figure had disappeared, Ran Hao finally emerged from behind the tree with a puzzled look in his eyes.

Zhao Qingyan did not answer his question. Instead, he lowered his eyes and asked, "Is the carriage ready?"

Ran Hao replied: "Yes."

"It's about time. Let's go." Zhao Qingyan tightened her grip on Changqiu and headed out of the residence.

Ran Hao hesitated for a moment, but didn't ask anything and quickly followed.
