Mr. An fell silent, raised his hand, patted Dang Yan's shoulder, and walked out of the room.
elder brother?
What an ironic name. They are neither siblings nor relatives, but in the eyes of that girl, Dang Yan is a brother.
However, when addressed as brother, who would have thought that this was a man who loved her more than anyone else?
Dang Yan was an orphan. When he was first brought back by Grandpa An, he couldn't speak a word and squatted in the corner all day. It was An Tingyu's pure and harmless innocence that gradually changed him. So from that time on, Dang Yan swore that he would protect this woman and make her happy for the rest of her life. It was a pity that Dang Yan was not a man who was good at talking. An Tianyu was born stupid and didn't understand what feelings were, and gradually they formed this kind of "brother-sister" way of getting along.
After leaving Mr. An's room, Jing Aotian and Liu Yunsheng came to Zhuchun Pavilion. They wanted to knock on the door, but found that it was not closed, so they went in. However...
"ah!"
This was an exclamation, Xing'er pointed at Jing Aotian and Liu Yunsheng, and the next moment, she quickly opened the door.
Outside the gate, Jing Aotian and Liu Yunsheng looked at each other, their faces flushed with embarrassment, because at this time, An Tingyu was feeding the child, but these two grown men happened to see this scene.
"Um...should we go back first?" Liu Yunsheng asked.
Jing Aotian touched the tip of his nose awkwardly, "But wouldn't it be too obvious if I just go back like this?"
“It seems so!”
The two looked at each other again, sighed, and said in unison: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come!"
As soon as they saw An Tingyu feeding the baby, they turned around and went back. Isn’t this clearly telling An Tingyu that we saw it!
How embarrassing it will be to meet each other next time!
After a long while, Xing'er finally opened the door. She snorted at Jing Aotian and Liu Yunsheng and said, "You are so rude. Why didn't you say a word before entering the courtyard? This is a woman's boudoir after all. Is it appropriate for you two grown men to come in like this?"
Hearing this, the two grown men didn't dare to say a word and just let themselves be scolded by a maid.
Seeing this, An Tingyu curled her lips and laughed, "Come in!"
These two men...
They were all well-known figures, but today they were scolded by a maid, and they didn't dare to talk back. If this were to be told to others, no one would believe it! After all, one of them was the King of Jing!
Jing Aotian cleared his throat and said, "Um... I came to see Mr. An today just to ask him about what happened that day."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yunsheng immediately stared at Jing Aotian, as if to say: Did you ask? You seemed to leave without asking anything?
Jing Aotian glared back at him, seemingly saying: Why are you meddling in other people's business?
"I'll let Prince Jing take care of my grandfather's affairs." An Tingyu handed Xiao Xi'er to Xing'er and walked aside. "Please take a seat, both of you."
Jing Aotian and Liu Yunsheng both sat down, and An Tingyu continued, "As far as I know, Grandpa's clothes and attire have always been taken care of by a maid named Hua. However, Hua happened to be unwell that day, so a new maid took over. However, afterward, that maid disappeared. So, as long as we find that maid, I believe the truth will be revealed."
"If the maid you're talking about is called Hongyi, then I regretfully tell you that she's dead. However, we found this on her body." Jing Aotian said as he took something out of his arms. "This thing is called the Wubuzi, a hidden weapon from the Poison Sect that kills at close range. Hongyi was killed by this hidden weapon. From this, it seems that Hongyi must have known this person, otherwise she wouldn't have let him get close. But unfortunately, there's no such person. So we can conclude that Hongyi is a killer organized by a group of people, and Hongyi is probably just a pseudonym."
"So the clue is broken, right?"
Jing Aotian nodded, "That's right."
"What about weapons? Have you found anything?" An Ting asked again.
Jing Aotian pondered for a moment, as if hesitating about something. After a while, he said, "Miss An, the Wubuzi was actually made by Fengyun. However, due to its toxicity, this weapon was not circulated outside. But now it has been made public, and I am tracking it down."
An Tingyu pursed her lips slightly, and a sharp light flashed in her beautiful eyes. She remained silent, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Seeing that she remained silent, Jing Aotian continued, "I don't know if you believe it or not, but I guarantee with my life that this was definitely not my doing. Of course, the Five-Step Manipulator was developed by Fengyun, so I can't escape blame, but I will definitely clear Mr. An's name."
"I don't have to disbelieve it. If it were you, you wouldn't have come forward to take my grandfather out of the palace. If it were you, you wouldn't have told me about the Wubuzi. I'm just wondering who could have easily stolen the Wubuzi without you noticing."
"If you're talking about suspicion, then everyone involved in the refining process is suspect. But if you're talking about suspicion, then you can also say that no one is suspect. This is because the thing was secretly handled by me as soon as it was born. Even the rough drawings were burned. Not to mention that when making the Five-Step Piece, there was a process that only Fengyun knew. So it should be impossible."
An Tingyu's dark pupils narrowed slightly, "What about Fengyun?"
Jing Aotian's words were questionable. If that was impossible, wouldn't Feng Yun, who knew the secret procedure, be very problematic? But Jing Aotian had no doubts at all. Isn't that strange?
Knowing what she meant, Jing Aotian assured her: "Feng Yun is not that kind of person, and even if everyone is possible, Feng Yun is not."
"Do you trust him that much?"
"Protect your life!"
Hearing this, An Tingyu raised her eyebrows. "Okay! We can put Fengyun's problem aside for now, but there is one question I really want to know. What do the Queen Mother and the Emperor mean to me? Don't say you don't know. Remember you said before that the Queen Mother cares about me, so you must know some inside stories that I don't know."
She had been holding this question in for a long time and wanted to ask Grandpa An and Dang Yan, but they just wouldn't tell her. Every time she asked, they would just give a perfunctory answer or simply wouldn't say anything. So if she asked Jing Aotian, he should be able to answer her!
An Tingyu thought Jing Aotian would answer, but unexpectedly, Jing Aotian also shook his head and said: "Sorry, if it is another question, I may be able to tell you everything, but this question... you should ask Grandpa An!"
Knowing that Jing Aotian was unwilling to say anything, An Tingyu knew that she would not get an answer, so she did not ask any more questions. After talking about Mr. An, Jing Ao and Liu Yunsheng stayed in Zhuchun Pavilion for a while and then went back.
An Tingyu sat in the chaise longue, looked at Xing'er and suddenly said: "Xing'er, if I ask you, you will also tell me that you don't know, right?"
Xing'er lowered her head and replied, "My dear Miss, I really don't know. I just know that the Queen Mother really loves you. I don't know anything else."
"Okay! You all don't know, but I'm bored and want to know." An Tingyu curled her lips, reached out to pick up the blanket beside her, covered herself with it, and fell asleep with her eyes closed.
