Chapter 114 You are too cunning
Hu Yan just felt a buzzing in her head.
She pushed aside the person in front of her and rushed into the room in two steps.
The unpleasant smell of blood on the ground has been cleaned up, and the simple medicine box that was brought with him when he came is now nowhere to be found.
She lifted the blanket from the boy. The woman behind her was a little angry. "What are you doing? I told you that the boy is gone. Our child can't catch a cold. He's finally getting better, and you're making him sick again."
Is there any improvement?
Hu Yan no longer had time to worry about what this family was thinking. Why would they lie that his condition had worsened and ask the Crown Princess to come when his condition had improved?
She walked into the yard and released the signal to contact the palace's secret guards, then picked up the child's parents one by one.
"I don't care who ordered you here, or what benefits that person gave you. If anything happens to my master, no one in your family will survive."
She took the man directly back to Prince Qi's Mansion and locked him up. She also sent someone to notify Qi Muchao, and then led the secret guards to look for the man in a hurry.
…
It was late at night when Lu Wanning woke up, and she seemed to be in a bumpy carriage.
For a moment, she didn't know if there was someone guarding her. She didn't even dare to open her eyes to let this person know that she was awake.
After hearing no sound for a long time, Lu Wanning turned around quietly.
"woke up?"
The familiar voice almost made Lu Wanning lose her composure.
When she opened her eyes, even the little moonlight coming through the small window of the carriage was enough for her to see Chen Wenjian's disgusting face clearly.
Lu Wanning was a little confused and simply asked, "What are you crazy about?"
Chen Wenjian lowered his eyes, took out a candle from the small drawer and lit it.
The dim firelight illuminated the small carriage. He raised his eyes, with a faint smile in them. They were not as dull and indifferent as in his previous life, nor as obscure as the time when they met at the gate of Chen's residence a few days ago.
He looked at Lu Wanning quietly, as if he was looking at a treasure that had been lost and found again.
This look made Lu Wanning feel very uncomfortable.
It's not that she had lost her guard against Chen Wenjian, but this man's actions today were completely different from the Chen Wenjian in her memory.
Chen Wenjian is a man who is good at calculating. Not to mention her, even his own parents, as long as he can achieve the purpose he wants, he can take them into account.
So she never thought that this person would do such a crazy thing.
Lu Wanning closed her eyes, calmed herself down, and thought about how to get out of this situation.
Now Chen Wenjian didn't know where he took her. He knew that Qi Muchao must be looking for someone, so he would not hide under Qi Muchao's nose.
She suspected that she had been taken away from the capital.
After a while, Lu Wanning suppressed her impatience and said, "Can you let me go? I'm thirsty."
Chen Wenjian poured her a cup of tea and brought it to her mouth. "Sorry, you're too cunning. I can't let you go."
“…”
Lu Wanningmin pursed her lips and thought that instead of knowing nothing, it would be better to directly anger Chen Wenjian. Maybe she could get some information.
She calmed down, pondered for a moment, and then spoke directly, "You tied me up, so you don't plan to return to Beijing anymore?"
Seeing that Chen Wenjian's expression remained unchanged, she continued, "Qi Muchao has a bad temper. Aren't you afraid that he will take action against the people in the Chen Mansion?"
At this point, Chen Wenjian finally looked at her and asked, "What does it have to do with me?"
The shadow reflected by the lush flames danced lightly on his cheek, making Chen Wenjian's calm face look a little crazy.
"In his heart, he has already decided that I am not his son."
He didn't vent his anger on Lu Wanning, and even looked at her with some admiration. "You are much smarter than I thought, but if I were given another chance, I might still keep you in the backyard like in my previous life."
Chen Wenjian didn't want her to show up in public. Those shining moments should only be seen by him.
When talking about his previous life, Chen Wenjian fell silent.
Lu Wanning thought his silence was a sign of guilt and sneered, "Since you're talking about your past life, why are you so embarrassed to come to me now? Do you think my death in your past life wasn't tragic enough?"
Isn’t that miserable enough?
Chen Wenjian's face turned slightly pale.
Suddenly immersed in memories of past lives.
His marriage with Luo Li has been finalized. Even though he knows that he needs the help of the Prime Minister's Office, Chen Wenjian does not want to let Lu Wanning down.
Therefore, he discussed with Luo Li in advance that if she could tolerate Lu Wanning in the Chen Mansion in the future, he would only have this one concubine in his future life.
Luo Li agreed.
Chen Wenjian was still worried. He had seen his mother's gritted teeth when she talked about his father's concubines, and the reasons why those concubines could never get pregnant. Although Chen Wenjian was an outsider, he saw it more clearly than anyone else.
So he had to consider Lu Wanning in advance.
With this guy's personality, he will probably be bullied by Luo Li in the future.
Thinking of her secretly wiping her tears alone, Chen Wenjian felt a headache.
But he never thought of giving up anything for Lu Wanning. As for his promise to make her his legal wife in the future, it was not really a lie to her.
When he has used the Prime Minister's Mansion to his advantage and sits on a high position, he will naturally make her his co-wife, and Luo Li will not be able to say anything then.
He planned everything perfectly. In order to reassure Lu Wanning and ensure that her status would not be affected in the future, Chen Wenjian even wanted to have a child with her.
Everything should be so beautiful.
But the fire destroyed everything.
At this point, Chen Wenjian could no longer tell her how he felt when he saw her burnt body.
I guess she doesn't want to hear this.
His Adam's apple slid slightly as he said, "I have made those who harmed you in your previous life pay the price they deserved."
Lu Wanning remained expressionless, saying, "You shouldn't have done anything to them. After all, if it weren't for the fire, I might still be that poor creature in the Chen Mansion's backyard, waiting for your favor every day. But now, I'm my aunt's beloved niece, the Crown Prince's Consort of Prince Qi's Mansion, and the highly praised Doctor Lu."
She raised an eyebrow. "Doesn't this sound better than staying in your backyard?"
Chen Wenjian felt that she had become a little harsh now, but it was not unbearable.
Just to prevent any arguments between the two of them, it might be better for him to keep quiet for a while.
After all, they had been together for two years, so Chen Wenjian had some understanding of her. He knew that Lu Wanning was a soft-hearted person. If you treat her well, she will see it one day over time.
