General Liu came to see Ying Xixi for something.
There was no choice but to go to the town by himself.
As Wen Muchen was Ying Xixi's attendant, his riding away on horseback did not alarm anyone in the army.
Although Beitong Kingdom and Yinfeng Dynasty are a country where men are superior to women and women are superior to men respectively.
But there is no obvious difference between the architectural styles of the two countries.
Wen Muchen looked at the town, which had not changed much from a few years ago, with a dazed expression.
In a trance, he almost thought that the war had not happened that year and that all this was just a nightmare.
He followed the route he remembered and led his horse to the home where he had lived for more than 20 years.
After his parents and eldest sister were killed, their home was also burned down.
He thought that this place would either be in ruins or become someone else's home.
But to his surprise, his home, which was originally in ruins, was restored to its original state.
It’s as if nothing happened back then.
Wen Muchen led the horse and stared blankly at the house in front of him, a little confused.
"Hey? Are you...that kid from the Wen family?"
A voice came from the side. Wen Muchen looked in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar woman.
He remembered that this lady lived near his house and was a neighbor.
"Auntie, it's me."
Wen Muchen curled the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"It's really you! You're here to see your parents and sister, right? It's been so many years, how have you been these past few years?
By the way, your house is still yours. You can go to the mayor to identify yourself and get the key, then you can open the door."
The old lady said whatever she thought.
Wen Muchen was curious when he heard this. "Auntie, my house was in ruins back then, how come it's been rebuilt now?"
"Oh, well, our town has been taken over by the Silver Phoenix Dynasty.
It was burned, killed and looted by bad guys back then and was completely destroyed.
When a prince from the Silver Phoenix Dynasty learned about this, he proposed to rebuild our town.
They also distributed some supplies to us and settled us down.
Not only your house, but all the destroyed houses in other places have been rebuilt.
Haven’t you noticed that every flower and tree in the town is almost exactly the same as it was back then?
That prince is so thoughtful! If she could become the next emperor, the lives of us ordinary people would be much better!"
The old lady said this happily.
Wen Muchen trembled with his lips, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt a little nervous.
"Auntie, do you still remember that prince? What was his name?"
"Call...what Xi Wang? Xi Wang, I think it's this prince."
The name King Xi made Wen Muchen's heart beat faster.
He took a deep breath and continued, "Auntie, but I heard that after the war, it was Prince Xi who came to our town and killed people indiscriminately."
Upon hearing this, the old lady looked at Wen Muchen strangely.
"Wen family boy, are you crazy? Is your memory confused?
Prince Xi had never been to the town before, so how could she come here to kill people?
It was the second year after the war that Prince Xi came in person."
Wen Muchen's ears were buzzing and he was completely stunned.
He heard his own voice seem a little ethereal, "Then who was it that killed my parents and eldest sister back then?"
The old lady was even more puzzled, "Wen family boy, it seems your memory is really confused. The people who came to our town to kill people that night were bandits from the mountains!
They were the ones who killed your parents and sister! Not only your family, but many other families in this town had their money and property robbed by the bandits. In the end, the bandits killed people and set fire to all the people and houses in our town!
It was the soldiers of the Silver Phoenix Dynasty who discovered it and came to rescue everyone!
It was very confusing at the time. I remember you seemed to have fainted. Could it be that you were frightened? Is your memory completely confused? "
The old lady's words made Wen Muchen fall into deep self-doubt.
After saying goodbye to the old lady, he led his horse to the home of a friend he remembered and asked about what happened that year.
Whether he asked one person, seven people or ten people.
What they said was not much different from what the old lady said.
Everyone is certain that it was bandits who killed the townspeople and set fire to the town to burn everyone to death!
Wen Muchen began to believe what everyone said.
But in his memory, the murderer he saw was clearly Ying Xixi!
Ying Xixi was wearing silver-white armor, with a few drops of blood splashed on her face. She held a sharp sword in her hand and killed his parents and sister in front of him with her own hands!
At that time, he was unable to move and could only be forced to watch the cruel scene!
This scene is so real and my memory is so clear.
But why is it different from what everyone said? !
Wen Muchen was walking on the street in a daze when he was suddenly stopped by someone.
He looked up and saw two men in black brocade robes stopping him.
"Sir, this is about your life experience. Please come with us."
Wen Muchen frowned, "I know my background well. Get out of the way. I won't go with you."
"That's an offense."
The two men were not surprised at Wen Muchen's refusal and started fighting with him directly.
The horses were so frightened that they ran away.
Wen Muchen, who was about to jump on his horse and run away, said: "???"
Wen Muchen, who was distracted by the horse, was knocked unconscious by the man's knife.
When Wen Muchen woke up again, he found himself lying on the bed in the inn.
He sat up with a start and saw the two men sitting at the table looking at him.
"My lord, you are awake now. Now that you are awake, we can talk to you about business.
Please do not try to escape, and do not think that there is nothing wrong with your background.
If your background was truly sound, we wouldn't be here."
One of the men said this and was about to continue when there was a knock on the door.
The two men looked at each other and became alert.
One person went to open the door, while the other hid at the door and drew his sword.
The door opened, revealing Ying Xixi, dressed as a servant and disguised as a man from Beitong Kingdom.
"My two lords, I'm here to look for my master. Have you ever seen him?"
As soon as Ying Xixi asked this, she saw Wen Muchen in the room looking at her with eyes full of surprise and mixed emotions.
She opened her eyes wide in surprise, rushed into the room in an instant, and hugged Wen Muchen who was sitting on the bed.
"Master! I finally found you! I've been searching for you for so long!"
The two men closed the door and walked over, looking at Wen Muchen in surprise and suspicion.
"Sir, is this your attendant?"
Ying Xixi, who was hugging Wen Muchen, pinched the soft flesh on his waist, and her meaning was very clear.
Wen Muchen's eyes twitched, "Yes, he is my servant."
