Speaking of his two brothers, Wei Yinuo smiled faintly, that smile stained with blood, "I'm afraid mother is too sad and has lost her mind. She has started talking nonsense."
"You are not allowed to call me mother!" Mrs. Wei screamed, "You are a bastard, a bitch! You are not worthy!"
"I've lost my mother, so naturally I have to call you my mother. This is also thanks to you and my elder and second brothers." The white hemp fluttered around Wei Yinuo's waist. "My elder and second brothers are gone, and from now on you only have me as your son. We mother and son should make do with each other and strive to be a loving mother and a filial son in this life. When you pass away, you won't be worried that no one will break the pot and support your funeral."
"You!" Mrs. Wei kept saying 'you' for a long time, and finally her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Wei Yinuo instructed the maids, "Help the lady go back to her room to rest, and then ask a good doctor to come and see her."
The maids answered in unison, "Yes."
"You should try to persuade her not to harm her health for my eldest and second brothers. After all, I'm going to marry and take concubines soon, and she'll have to be fed by my wife and children and enjoy the happiness of having children and grandchildren around her. She shouldn't die so young."
The maids dared not speak.
Wei Yinuo laughed wildly a few times, then strode away.
The horse galloped into the street and Wei Yinuo came to a teahouse.
The horseman came forward to greet him, the waiter helped him off the horse, and then led him into the hall.
After entering the hall, he went straight to the third floor and knocked on the door of an elegant room.
A voice came from inside the room, "Come in."
Wei Yinuo pushed the door open and saw a man standing in front of the window with his back to the door, looking down at the passers-by.
The man was tall and wore a dark blue suit, long boots in the color of a skirt, and a jade-buckled gold-threaded belt around his waist. He had an extraordinary temperament.
Standing in that position, he must have seen everything that happened when he came.
Wei Yinuo closed the door, took a half step forward, bowed and asked, "I wonder what Lou Shaoqing wants to see you about?"
Now that they were alone, there was no need to beat around the bush, so he simply got straight to the point.
Lou Yunchun turned around and scanned him from head to toe with his eyes. Wei Yinuo was now dressed in gorgeous clothes and a brocade hat, looking rich and noble. He was completely different from the captain of the Xinquan Army at the border.
Wei Yinuo felt a little uneasy when Lou Yunchun looked at him. Could this man be looking for him to settle the old score at Wulan Pass? Wasn't this matter over?
"I heard you're getting married?"
"What?" Lou Yunchun's sudden question almost confused Wei Yinuo, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. "How did you know?"
Lou Yunchun asked, "Who are you going to marry?"
Wei Yinuo thought to himself, why is he asking this? Could it be that he is not only going to take revenge on him, but also on his future wives and concubines?
"When did Lou Shaoqing start intervening in common people's marriages?"
"Lu family?"
Wei Yinuo's expression was slightly gloomy. The marriage between the Wei family and the Lu family was only a verbal agreement and had never been announced to the public. How did Lou Yunchun know about it?
Could it be that he has been monitoring his whereabouts?
He frowned and said, "Lord Lou, the matter of Wulan Pass is over, and I have paid the price. Why are you still pursuing me?"
Lou Yunchun looked over and asked, "Price?"
Wei Yinuo's eyes flashed with grief. "Back then, my two 'brothers' threatened my mother's life and asked me to kill you at Wulan Pass to prevent you from going to Beiting. I didn't want to kill you, but I was afraid of implicating the Xinquan Army, so I made a deal with them."
"What deal?"
"As long as we can stop you at Wulan Pass, Bai Yu will not attack in Xinquan Army territory." Wei Yinuo sighed, "It's a pity that I can't stop you, nor can I stop Bai Yu."
Lou Yunchun's trip to Beiting will never be stopped because of his obstruction, and Bai Wei will not give up. This is an inevitable assassination, even if it is not in Wulan Pass, it will be somewhere else.
"But fortunately, I bought you some time, allowing you to wait for reinforcements. Otherwise, more than just your guards would have died. Besides, I also wiped out the Hundred Wings afterwards, so my merits and demerits are offset."
Because there was no one else around and the court had closed the case, Wei Yinuo dared to tell Lou Yunchun the truth as a sign of weakness and a request for peace.
Lou Yunchun went over the whistleblower's confession in his mind. It did not explain the inside story, only that he was in collusion with Wei Yinuo.
He immediately understood why Wei Yinuo wanted to kill and silence the witness and change his confession.
If the charge of colluding with Bai Yu is proven, no matter what his reasons are or what kind of pressure he endures, he will have no way out but death, and the Xinquan Army will also be implicated.
"Because the assassination attempt failed, you captured Guo Yuanzhen and returned safely to the capital. My two brothers then took out their anger and resentment towards me on my mother."
Pain and hatred flashed across Wei Yinuo's face. "They imprisoned her and abused her. Plus, my stepmother already hated my mother and me, so she wanted to kill her when she got the chance. And my father turned a blind eye and allowed my mother to be bullied to death."
This is the price Wei Yinuo paid, and Lou Yunchun also had a part to play in it.
Lou Yunchun was silent for a moment, then said, "My condolences."
Wei Yinuo sneered, "My condolences are useless to me. Only if they pay the price can my mother's spirit in heaven be comforted."
At that time, the eldest and second sons of the Wei family were in custody awaiting trial. They were cautious and had already thought of a way out after Lou Yunchun returned to Beijing.
They destroyed the evidence and put someone else in the blame, and were about to be released due to insufficient evidence. Wei Yinuo took this opportunity to threaten Wei Yuankui, asking him to kill the whistleblower for him, otherwise he would personally report the crimes of the two and the Wei family to the court.
Wei Yuankui had no choice but to do as he was told. However, killing someone in the Dali Temple was not an easy task. Wei Yuankui spent countless money and used the most secretive connections of the Wei family to silence the person.
After the whistleblower died, Wei Yinuo sent someone to take a letter to the Wei family, asking them to prepare to collect their son's body.
