Chapter 320 Confrontation



Wen Heng asked tentatively: "Is there nothing else?"

Xia Zhiliao shook his head, "What could be the problem? Aren't you tired? Go back and rest early, otherwise your wound won't heal quickly."

She also yawned, letting Wen Heng know that she was really sleepy.

Wen Heng smiled and said, "Then go to sleep."

He was still wondering what kind of girl she was. After he came to the capital, he didn't know many girls. She was the one he was closest to, and the other one was Lu Seyan, whom he didn't like.

But the girl she just mentioned was definitely not Lu Seyan's.

If it was Lu Seyan, she would have said it directly in the letter.

So...who is it?

Wen Heng returned to the tent and listened quietly to the chirping of insects, but he had no desire to sleep.

Wen Huai also couldn't sleep.

Not only did the plan fail, but I was also humiliated by those guys.

It seems that he still underestimated Wen Heng.

The fact that he has such superb chess skills means that he can't be a fool.

It turns out that he also knows how to conceal his edge.

From what I can see now, Xia Zhiliao cannot be eliminated, otherwise it will be bad for me.

Just thinking of the smug looks on the faces of the three of them made him gnashing with hatred.

Wen Chao also felt scared. It turned out that the brother who used to have a good relationship with him was the mastermind behind the incident.

Although there is no direct evidence and it is difficult to find, he is not stupid. If he still doesn't know who it is, then he will die without knowing how he died.

He eagerly told Wen Yan the news.

Wen Yan acted very calmly, which made Wen Chao think that he didn't believe him.

"Really, it's not just me. Wen Heng and Zhi Liao all know about it. The person who poisoned you and used poison insects on me was really Brother Seven."

Wen Chao was anxious, "Really, there is no need for me to lie to you. We must be careful in the future. I can't believe it was him."

Wen Yan nodded, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this happened too suddenly."

"Who said it wasn't true? That's terrible. I always thought Brother Seven was pretty good."

Wen Chao's thoughts were a little confused, "Why do you think he attacked us?"

"I can't think of a reason."

"Naturally we were in his way."

Wen Chao frowned. "How are we blocking his way? Could it be that he is still thinking about..."

Wen Yan knew what he was going to say, "That's right, what else can we do?"

Isn't it the throne that the imperial family is fighting for?

"Is Zhiliao okay?" Wen Yan asked.

Wen Chao shook his head. "How could it happen? Fortunately, it was Wen Heng. If it weren't for him, it would be hard to say. At that time, Brother Qi was pestering me, and I couldn't act according to the plan."

Wen Yan frowned, "You are so reckless. The cicada is so small. What if there is any danger?"

Wen Chao looked embarrassed.

"Also, since you know it's Brother Seven, why do you want to anger him? It won't be too late to find him after you get the evidence."

Wen Chao smiled, "You don't know how ugly Brother Seven's face was at that time. I felt that he wanted to kill Wen Heng very much, but the matter had been exposed, and he had no chance to do it again."

Wen Chao's words were full of admiration for Xia Zhiliao and Wen Heng, as well as his approval of this approach.

However, Wen Yan decided not to act rashly before he had fatal evidence.

The next morning, he went to find Wen Heng.

Wen Heng looked at him and guessed what was going on.

"You should know why I came, right?"

Wen Heng curled his lips, "You think I'm too smart."

"You are very smart. I know you have been enduring." Wen Yan said, "I also know that you have a lot of hatred in your heart. It is not something that I can make go away with just a few words."

"That's really interesting." Wen Heng smiled.

"Don't you think it's ridiculous that a favored person asked me, who was ignored and even targeted, to let go of my hatred?"

This was not the first time that Wen Yan saw Wen Heng being aggressive, but the difference was that this time he was targeting him.

"Even though I know that you have other purposes for entering the palace, I have never thought of opposing you." Wen Yan said seriously.

Wen Heng curled his lips, "So what? Do you think you will just ignore me if I want revenge?"

Even if you are that person's most beloved son, just based on this fact alone, it is impossible for them to stand on the same side.

Wen Yan chose to remain silent.

"No matter what, you shouldn't have put Zhiliao in danger." Wen Yan looked at him, "Don't you love her the most? Don't you think your actions yesterday were a little inappropriate?"

It seems that just as he thought, Wen Yan really cares about the little girl now.

"First, in what capacity are you telling me this?"

"Secondly," Wen Heng curled his lips and stared at him coldly, "No one knows how to treat her better than me. How long have you known Zhiliao? You know what she wants. Wen Yan, I don't care why you care about Zhiliao so much, but your approach is what really hurts her."

Wen Yan was puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

Wen Heng thought about what he knew from Xia Zhiliao, that he and Lu Seyan were a perfect match, and in the future one would be the emperor and the other the queen.

If Wen Yan gets close to Xia Zhiliao, Lu Seyan will deal with her.

He also didn't understand why Xia Zhile, who was so smart and knew what would happen in the future, was so afraid of these two people.

"No, I will protect her." Wen Yan said.

Wen Heng wanted to say, you don’t really think that if the emperor takes you to get engaged, Xia Zhiliao will be yours, right?

But he held back and didn't say anything, because Emperor Shunde didn't allow anyone to know about this matter.

If he told it, it would definitely bring trouble to the princess's mansion.

After all, it would be really embarrassing for the emperor to be rejected.

"Zhiliao is still young. I just hope she can do whatever she wants. No matter what it is, I will support her." Wen Heng said.

"You are fooling around. You will only put her in more danger."

Wen Heng stared at her. "If you want to talk about danger, you have already brought danger to her from the moment she treated your poison."

He has the nerve to talk about himself?

Wen Yan opened his mouth, "I..."

However, he didn't say anything in the end.

"Others may not know, but I know, and you should know in your heart that both the prince and those brothers are paving the way for you. You are the one chosen by the emperor."

Wen Yan looked at Wen Heng suddenly, "You...why would you say that?"

He actually knew it because his father had told him early on.

When he was young, he didn't take it seriously and thought his father was just coaxing him, but gradually, he realized that this was the truth.

His father seemed to be cold and indifferent to him, but he had been cultivating him in secret.

"Don't pretend anymore. I know that what I said is the truth, but even if you are the successor, you may not be able to protect it."

Wen Heng anticipated what he was going to say and immediately blocked his way out, not giving him any chance at all.
