"Brother, where is Hua Lianyi?"
"She's very secretive. Although she seems to like me, I don't see much love in her eyes."
Wen Shirui commented.
"Tsk, it seems these three women are not simple."
Wen Shige shook his head.
"Brother, do you think Hua Lianyi really has a living purple flower?"
Wen Shixuan was skeptical.
"I can't judge without seeing the real thing."
Wen Shirui said, stroking the teacup in his hand.
"I used the family's secret treasure and put in a lot of effort to cultivate a purple flower, and it has only budded but has not bloomed yet. Even so, it has suppressed the cold poison in big brother's body. If there is a mature purple flower, the poison in big brother's body can be cured, and you can continue to practice."
Wen Shige said in a low voice.
"But there's no such thing as a free lunch. Hua Lianyi must have some ulterior motive."
Wen Shirui said with certainty.
This time Wen Shige also nodded. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that from the moment Hua Lianyi entered the Wen Family Castle, she had been rushing straight towards Wen Shirui with a clear goal. And Wen Shirui was the designated future head of the family, so it was obvious that this woman had big ambitions.
Wen Shixuan looked at the two people with heavy faces and said unhappily:
"Big brother, second brother, this is not marrying a wife, this is inviting trouble. If you ask me, just find a reason to send her away, why bother with so much effort?"
"Oh, if we get rid of them, there will be other women. Those people will never give up. Instead of this, it is better to eliminate the black hand behind the scenes, so that we can rest assured.
If we can really get the Purple Flower, it won't be a loss for us.
Father made this arrangement to lure the snake out of its hole. A thief can be thieves for a thousand days, but you can never be on guard against thieves for a thousand days."
Wen Shige said as he tapped his younger brother's head with his folding fan.
"Okay! I'll follow your arrangements."
Wen Shixuan would rather study poison than waste his time thinking about these things, but he still mentioned:
"The prescription Song Jia gave me is very interesting. It can make people who take it tell the truth when they are questioned. I wonder if we can use it. It is much better than torture."
Wen Shirui and Wen Shige looked at each other, and suddenly felt that only their younger brother was a naive person.
"Since they have provided the recipe, let's give it a try!"
Wen Shige said with a smile.
After Lianyi returned to her residence, she complained to the two maids:
"Brother Wen, do you really not understand or is you pretending not to understand? I have made it so clear that I like him! He even wants me to get in touch with his brothers. I really don't know what he is thinking!"
"Miss, calm down. I guess the master has other plans."
Lichun whispered soothingly.
"Although Master Wen is the elder, he can't just randomly match people up!"
Ripple frowned.
"Miss Hua, be careful with your words. After all, Master Wen is the head of the family. If he disagrees..."
Before Lichun finished speaking, Lianyi understood what he meant. After glancing at him, she waved her hand unhappily and said:
"I understand. You guys go down first! I need to think about it carefully."
"Yes, Miss!"
Lichun pulled Xiazhi to wait outside the door.
After the two left, Lianyi lay down on the bed and began to lie still, but in fact she was holding the spiritual essence in her hands and absorbing it.
She had not chosen to do so before in Yinlou. One reason was that Elder Yue’s cultivation was at the Golden Core Stage, and she had only just reached the level of drawing Qi into her body. She was unable to fight against him head-on, so it was only under his deliberate guidance that she was able to raise her cultivation to the third level of Qi Refining.
Secondly, in order to completely control her, Yinlou drugged her when she was chosen. This drug will continue to erode her body as her cultivation level increases. Even if her cultivation level is higher in the future, she will not be able to escape control. To put it bluntly, she is a pawn cultivated by Tianxia Diyilou, and will be abandoned when she is useless.
In an environment surrounded by wolves, Lianyi would definitely not reveal a single bit of her identity. The first thing she did was to protect herself. Now that she had entered Wenjiabao, although she was still being monitored by the people in Wenjiabao, even if they suspected her, they did not know her background. This gave her the opportunity to improve her cultivation and neutralize the poison in her body.
You must know that when she agreed to become the tasker, her Mahayana cultivation would be brought into a plane where she could practice, but it would require a certain amount of accumulation and process.
After all, she couldn't suddenly transform from a mortal who couldn't practice to a Mahayana cultivator. Even if she could, the body she was temporarily borrowing wouldn't be able to bear it.
So when she was in Yinlou, after she confirmed that she had a single fire spiritual root, she began to strengthen her body and widen her meridians bit by bit. Otherwise, she would not have only reached the third level of Qi Refining in five years.
Now that she was out of Yinlou's surveillance, the first thing she did after entering Wenjiabao was to draw a wisp of red lotus fire to burn away all the poison in her body and free herself from control. Then she absorbed the spiritual power in her spiritual marrow day and night to improve her cultivation at the fastest speed.
In three nights, she had already improved her cultivation to the foundation-building stage. After all, she had her own cultivation level and there was no bottleneck. She felt that she had to at least improve her cultivation to the Nascent Soul stage before she could find out the secrets of Wen Family Castle and the No. 1 Building in the World.
The next day, Wen Shige had his servant deliver an invitation early in the morning, inviting Lianyi to go see the koi. Lianyi agreed with a sullen face, then changed into a purple and pink Liuxian dress. After getting dressed, she asked her maid to accompany her to the lotus pond.
"Miss Hua, did you have a good rest last night?"
Wen Shige was wearing a purple-gold robe today, which matched Lianyi very well. He asked with a smile, waving the folding fan in his hand.
"Fortunately, perhaps because there are many flowers, plants and trees planted in the inner courtyard, the air is particularly fresh."
Lianyi said with a curl of her lips.
Anyone could see that she was not very willing to meet Wen Shige.
"Miss Hua, I think I'm pretty good. At least after you marry me, you can leave Wenjiabao. If you marry my eldest brother, unless he steps down as the head of the family, you will never be able to leave Wenjiabao for the first half of your life."
Wen Shige waved the folding fan in his hand and said with a smile.
"If I don't want to leave, then I won't leave. Anyway, I think Wen's Castle is quite big. As long as I'm with Brother Wen, I'm willing to do anything."
Lian Yi said decisively.
Wen Shige nodded to show his understanding, and did not recommend himself again. Instead, he led Lianyi to see the koi.
Lianyi scattered a handful of fish food and said casually:
"When I was in Huafu, my favorite food was fish. I didn't eat other meats."
"Oh? Why is that?"
"Because fish have been killed by heaven, eating their meat does not count as killing."
"Miss Hua believes in Buddhism?"
"Yes! That's why I don't like killing. You have too much murderous aura and too strong a smell of blood. So no matter how attentive you are, I won't agree to your request."
The last sentence is the key point.
Wen Shige tightened his grip on the folding fan, then smiled helplessly:
"Miss Hua, there's no need to hint or hint. I understand what you mean."
"That's good! Take me back first! I've been looking at the koi for a long time, and I want to eat fish."
"good!"
Lianyi nodded in satisfaction and walked towards Ziyun Garden with Wen Shige.
When the two were halfway there, they happened to meet Wen Shirui and Hong Linger.
