Wan Yuandong frowned and watched Ma Ximing's back disappearing into the night, his eyes instantly becoming cold.
He was just about to arrange for his family to temporarily stay in a farm outside Beijing when Ma Ximing suddenly said this.
What is the deep meaning behind this?
If what Ma Ximing said was true, then he really needed to evacuate his family as soon as possible.
If the Xiao family rebelled, the first thing Emperor Wu of Liang would do was to take Xiao's relatives as hostages.
So---what if what Ma Ximing said was false?
If he took any action, would he have fallen directly into Emperor Wu of Liang's trap?
Wan Yuandong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice,
"Someone come..."
Soon, more than a dozen disguised guards quietly rushed out of the Wan Mansion.
After watching the guards leave, Wan Yuandong thought for a long time alone in the living room, but still didn't dare to take that step.
If you take this step wrong, there will be no recovery...
“Oh~oh~oh~~~”
The crowing of roosters brought Wan Yuandong, who was sitting in the living room, back to his senses.
He looked out into the courtyard with a weary face. The sky was already slightly brightening, and it was time for the morning court session...
......
"General Yao..."
After the morning court session, Wan Yuandong deliberately moved closer to Yao Hai.
As he passed by Yao Hai, he let out a soft sound from between his teeth.
Yao Hai paused and turned his head to look at Wan Yuandong who was staring at him as he passed by.
Um!?
Yao Hai looked at Wan Yuandong's figure with puzzled eyes, and then looked around.
There was no one else next to him, it was Wan Yuandong who called him just now.
What the hell is that Wan guy doing?!
At the beginning, the man surnamed Wan snatched away his favorite son-in-law, which made him so angry that he disliked the man surnamed Wan for several years.
Aren't you, the daughter of a civil servant, a perfect match for Xiao Yunyou, the military advisor?
He is a military general, okay? His daughter also loves to wield swords and guns, so she is a perfect match for Xiao Yunhao.
Who knew that before he could open his mouth, the shameless man surnamed Wan had already found someone to express his intention to marry into the Xiao family.
God knows how much he admires Xiao Yunhao's martial arts...
Yao Hai rolled his eyes at Wan Yuandong's back, swung his sleeves and strode forward, surpassing Wan Yuandong in a few steps.
The moment he passed Wan Yuandong, he heard the mosquito-like voice again - "General Yao!"
Yao Hai paused, frowned and looked back at Wan Yuandong.
This time he was absolutely certain that it was the Wan who was behind this.
"you-----"
Wan Yuandong looked at Yao Hai's huge mouth which seemed to be about to open, and quickly winked at him.
Fool!
But don't talk to him.
If someone saw this, they might say something nonsense in front of Emperor Wu of Liang.
Ever since the Xiao family was confiscated and exiled, these relatives of the Xiao family have never dared to visit each other again.
Especially after knowing that Xiao Yunzhan had killed the escorting officials and escaped with the women of the Xiao family, they had been cautious in their words and actions in the court.
They did not dare to have any contact with each other in private, for fear of arousing Emperor Wu of Liang's suspicion.
If it wasn't absolutely necessary, he would never dare to go to Yao Hai this time.
He didn't even dare to let the servant go to Yao's house to deliver the letter, as only he knew about this matter.
Yao Hai looked at Wan Yuandong, whose eyes were about to pop out of his head in anxiety, and immediately shut his mouth.
He is a military general, yes, but he is not stupid.
Judging from Wan Yuandong's expression, someone must be watching him, and it is not convenient to talk to him in public.
"Ahem~"
Yao Hai cleared his throat and looked up at the sky.
"The sun is so bright, I'm afraid the sky will be full of stars at night..."
After Yao Hai sighed, he took big steps and quickly disappeared from Wan Yuandong's sight.
He had no doubt that Wan Yuandong would definitely understand the time he had arranged.
Wan Yuandong pulled the corners of his lips and lowered his eyelids to cover the slightly helpless smile in his eyes.
This was also fortunately because there were not many people around them and Yao Hai's voice was very quiet.
Otherwise, based on Yao Hai's hint, anyone with a normal brain would be able to guess something.
Wan Yuandong sighed, shook his head helplessly and walked into the mansion.
never mind!
He couldn't expect so much from Yao Hai, a rough guy. Being able to do this was beyond his expectations...
......
"Mr. Wan, what do you want from me?"
Yao Hai found his way to Wan Yuandong's study smoothly. When he opened the door, he saw Wan Yuandong waiting for him in the study.
Old guy, you are so mysterious.
The entire Wan Mansion was deserted, without even a servant or guard on night watch.
What is there to say? It's so mysterious.
Wan Yuandong, who was in a daze, was startled when he heard Yao Hai's voice suddenly.
He quickly got up and walked to the door of the study, stuck his head out to look around, and then quickly closed the door.
"No one followed you when you came here, right?"
Wan Yuandong turned to look at Yao Hai with a nervous look on his face.
If anyone follows them, they won't be able to talk about anything tonight.
Yao Hai looked at Wan Yuandong's nervous expression and felt a little nervous in his heart.
He frowned and thought carefully.
"...Probably not. I was very careful when I came here."
"What happened?"
Yao Hai stared at Wan Yuandong with wide eyes, and noticed at a glance that Wan Yuandong's temples had suddenly turned gray.
This is really a big deal.
He remembered that not long ago, Wan Yuandong had no gray hair on his temples.
