348 Wang Wei's Persistence
Wang Chufeng has been staying at his uncle's house these days to recuperate.
When my grandfather came to see him yesterday, he was still lying on the kang, looking listless.
My grandmother told my uncle that he must not let the second wife off easily this time, otherwise such things would happen again in the future.
He was rescued safely both times. How could he be so lucky again?
He thought about it and it made sense. Every time the two brothers from the second branch had a fight, their grandfather would let it go because the old lady would cry. This was the situation, and both their grandfather and even their father had a responsibility that could not be shirked.
Every time his grandfather acted embarrassed, his father would just let it go. He couldn’t remember how many times this had happened since he was a child.
I don’t know if Ping An’s injury has healed yet. He has an arithmetic competition in three days. I almost hurt him this time.
Now when he thinks about the scene that night, he still shudders.
Mrs. Hou walked in and looked at her grandson lying there with a worried look on her face: "What's wrong? Does the wound hurt a lot?"
Wang Chufeng leaned over and said, "Grandma, the wound doesn't hurt that much anymore, but I feel sorry for Ping An. It was too dangerous this time. Without him and his people, I would definitely be dead this time."
"Pah, pah, pah, don't say such bad things. Tomorrow I will ask your uncle to send him some thank-you gifts. He has been busy these few days since the incident, and your aunt gave birth to a baby, so all the things happened at the same time.
Chu Feng, when your uncle was about to go out in the morning, your grandfather's people came to him and said they wanted to have a talk with him. Your uncle said, we will never let them go this time. Your grandfather will be back in a few days and will be able to make the decision for you. "

In the evening, as soon as he got home, Wang Qing took Ping'an into the study.
"Hean, what happened? That person..."
Ping An shook his head gently: "Brother, some things are better if you just know the result, don't say it out loud. The danger this time is over, but you still live with me, don't move out in a hurry. Huo Zhi will come after he's done with his work in a few days, and it will be more lively with more people."
Wang Qing stopped asking: "Ping An, thank you very much. I will always remember your kindness in my heart. I hope I can repay you in the future."
Ping An chuckled: "There is no need to talk about rewards between you and me. I didn't think about these things when I helped you. The relationship between people is fate."
"You will take the entrance exam next year. When do you plan to leave the capital?"
"It's hard to say now, maybe in the first month of next year, or maybe in June. I still have to listen to Master. My husband is busy with his official duties now, so Master has to accompany me back to take the exam. Speaking of going back, I miss my parents and sister very much."
Wang Qing knew about his special family.
But he rarely mentions these things.
"I miss home, too. The spring exams won't start until February next year, so there's still more than a year to go. Sometimes I feel like the days are passing by like years."
The next morning.
Wang Wei actually accompanied the old Duke to his home.
The old Duke was about sixty years old, very tall and strong. Ping An knew he was a good person at first glance. How could he have given birth to such a bad grandson?
Ping'an hurriedly invited everyone to sit down in the main hall.
"Ping An, thank you for saving Chu Feng twice. When his parents come back, let them thank you properly."
Ping An smiled and said, "My Lord, there is no need to thank me. Chu Feng is also my friend, so it is my duty to help him."
Wang Wei interrupted, "But you almost lost your life this time."
The old Duke looked at Wang Wei and felt bitter in his heart. This time, his youngest grandson would most likely be exiled. How could a spoiled young man survive in such a harsh environment? He might even die on the way.
But this time it was too much, letting so many assassins kill his own cousin, will they kill his own uncle next time?
The killer actually let him kill even the unarmed waiter and the shopkeeper. Is he still a human being?
How could he open his mouth to beg for mercy? If he didn't handle this matter well, it would hurt the feelings of the first wife's family.
"Ping An, I don't know what to say about this matter. Alas, Chu Feng is still recovering at his uncle's house. I dare not think about what happened that night. Well, you still have to go to the academy, so I won't say much. These things are my thank you gifts to you. Thank you very much."
"Duke, you should take these gifts back. Chu Feng and I are friends, there is no need to do this."
Wang Wei stood up and said, "Ping An, just accept it. This is a little gift from Chu Feng's grandfather. You saved his grandson twice. How can he feel at ease if you don't accept his gift?
These are my little thank you gifts to you. When I have time later, I will treat you and your master to a meal."
"Prince, how can I do this? I really cannot accept your gift. This..."
Of course I accepted it.
As soon as the two left, Ping'an didn't have time to check the thank-you gift and hurriedly got on the car to the academy.
He knew without checking that the thank-you gifts from the two were not small.
Here, Wang Wei and the old Duke got into the car.
"Wang Wei, I would like to invite Sun Sicheng and Chang Chunfeng to the restaurant to apologize tomorrow. Will you come with us?"
Wang Wei said, "Duke, I know it's difficult for you, but this is a big deal. I believe even the emperor knows about it. They want to kill everyone in the restaurant.
Chu Feng, Ping An, and almost all of their men were injured. The young clerk killed two people, and the shopkeeper was also seriously injured. I won’t talk about the killers. At this point, it’s no longer something that can be settled privately.”
The old Duke sighed deeply and said, "In the next two days, the Military Affairs Department will prepare to transfer the evil boy to the Dali Temple. If the victim has not yet reached a settlement when he arrives there, I am afraid he will be sentenced severely.
Wang Wei, I'm not biased, Chu Yun is no exception, he is just a fourteen-year-old child. "
Wang Wei said calmly: "Duke, you know the situation well. You can mobilize more than 30 people to kill Chu Feng, some of whom are from the underworld. How can a 14-year-old child do this? It must cost a lot of money, right?
I shouldn't have been able to take charge of your family affairs, but now my brother-in-law and sister are not home yet, and the one who was injured and almost died is my nephew after all.
Also, this Ping An was commended twice by the emperor. He went to the northern border and saved many soldiers. He had just returned to thank the emperor for his reward and was ambushed by your grandson at the foot of the emperor. Do you think he could be easily let off? Would Sun Sicheng and Chang Chunfeng let him go easily?"
The old Duke was speechless.
I married a virtuous wife. My first wife was virtuous and bright, but unfortunately she didn’t live long. After a year of mourning, my parents urged me to remarry. She seemed nice at the time, but who knew that she would change beyond recognition. How could she look even a little like she did when she was young?
It's crazy.
The second brother had no special abilities and no title, so he felt a little distressed and gave him some extra money. He never thought that these would be the capital for them to hire someone to kill someone.
It is impossible that the second son’s wife is completely unaware of this matter. Maybe the child was instigated by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
When the eldest brother comes back, we should divide the family.
But this matter still needs to be suppressed. It is impossible to suppress it completely, but at least the impact must be minimized.
In this case, Sun Sicheng and Chang Chunfeng had to make apology.
The old Duke sighed.
Wang Wei didn't even raise his eyelids. He had to hold on this time, otherwise he might have to collect his nephew's body next time.
