"This should be the real purpose of Madam Tang calling Chen Heng." Lu Ji'an frowned slightly and thought of another thing.
"We always thought that the daughter of the Duke's family had taken a fancy to Brother Xie. Now it seems that the lady was probably forced to accept Brother Ajian. Who is the person behind this?" Gu Feng had never seen such a complicated case. "One more thing, how did Brother Ajian lose his memory?"
"There's a scar on his back, running from the back of his head to his waist. This must be the key to his amnesia." Lu Ji'an recalled the scene when they were together in the bathhouse. "It's said that it was left there by his father. Someone must have seriously injured him back then."
Chen Heng was shocked when she heard this, and subconsciously said: "Even if it is amnesia, it is impossible to forget everything completely." Medically speaking, this kind of amnesia that forgets everything completely is only caused by a serious illness or Alzheimer's disease, but both are accompanied by various diseases, not like Brother Jian.
"Let's wait until Ajian comes out of the Imperial Examination Hall before we discuss everything." Lu Ji'an said, "Chen Heng, don't come to me alone in the future. I'll have Gu Feng come to your place every two days."
"I know." Shen Heng knew that she had accidentally looked for Lord Lu this time, disrupting his plan and almost costing herself her life. How could she dare to do that again in the future? "Lord Lu, will those men in black come to trouble me again in the future?"
Seeing the worry and fear in Chen Heng's eyes, Lu Ji'an smiled and said, "No."
There was one thing he couldn't understand about the man behind the scenes. He only targeted him because he was investigating the eldest brother of the Xie family. Strangely, he didn't target Ajian. Instead, he allowed Ajian to rise from the rank of scholar all the way to the imperial capital. What was he trying to do?
Shen Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
What is surprising is that the exit of the dark house turned out to be Li Hu's family.
When the three of them came out of the woodshed, they saw Li Hu yawning and standing guard at the door. "Master, you're finally here. If you hadn't come back, I would have come looking for you. Is everyone asleep?"
"No. Has Yu Wei come back?" Gu Feng asked.
"He came back a long time ago." Li Hu hissed, "Keep your voice down and don't disturb my wife."
"You kissed?" Chen Heng was surprised. Her impression of Li Hu and that Dawei was stuck on the time when Liu Zhiyue plotted against them on Nanming Mountain. They both looked fierce and could easily be associated with those vicious people. Who would have thought that they kissed in just a few months.
Li Hu scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Thank you, sir, for being the matchmaker. My wife is already three months pregnant."
Chen Heng: "..." Xie Jian is the matchmaker?
Gu Feng patted Li Hu's shoulder and said, "I heard from Dawei that your two families have arranged a marriage for their children?"
"I don't mind. With his looks, I don't know if his daughter will be pretty." Li Hu looked disdainful, and then said, "Fortunately, his wife is pretty good-looking."
Who doesn't know how to give birth to a daughter? Besides, Gu Feng looked at Li Hu's square face with thick eyebrows, thought about it, and decided to hold back and not say anything.
"Dawei also kissed?" Chen Heng couldn't believe it.
"Yes. It was Mr. Xie who acted as the matchmaker. Mr. Xie is a great benefactor to us brothers. We will follow him for the rest of our lives." Li Hu was full of gratitude. They brothers had never thought that they would be able to start a family and a career in their lives. He was such a great benefactor that they must repay him with gratitude.
Could Xie Jian also be a matchmaker? Shen Heng knew he had changed a lot, but this change was too big.
When he returned home, the sound of the door opening startled Xia.
Ever since she encountered a midnight break-in at her hometown, Xia Shi had been easily startled awake: "Ah Heng, what happened in the shop? Why did they call you out of the blue?"
Knowing that it was Lord Lu who sent someone to appease the eldest sister-in-law, Shen Heng said, "We were robbed. Fortunately, the thief was caught. We checked the warehouse and nothing was missing."
