639 In the dark

The moment Wan Yanxi walked into Dali Temple, she was completely confused and had no idea what was going on.

After Bai Meng returned to the Forbidden Army camp, she went directly to Wanyanxi's tent. Wanyanxi was sitting on the couch with her eyes closed and resting. She was about to fall asleep. She was refreshed by the cold wind outside. She didn't even have time to open her eyes.

After saying hello, Bai Meng grabbed his wrist and dragged him out. He didn't even take the hand stove or put on his cloak, so he just dragged him onto the horse. Fortunately, his boots were easy to wear, otherwise he would have seen a barefoot person.

The strange scenery of people galloping on horses on Xijing Street.

Wanyanxi was filled with questions. He wanted to ask several times along the way, but was stopped by the guards around Bai Meng. The two guards took advantage of Baimeng not paying attention and winked at Wanyanxi to calm him down.

Don't be impatient. When you get to the place, your doubts will naturally be solved.

Wanyanxi followed Bai Meng on horseback and ran all the way from the Forbidden Army camp. She originally thought she was entering the palace, but she didn't expect that she was entering the Dali Temple.

When he walked into the side room where the corpse was placed, Bai Meng pulled him to the corpse of the owner of the pickle garden. When the white cloth was lifted and he saw that familiar yet unfamiliar face, he was stunned and couldn't believe it.

appearance.

"Is he someone he knows?" When Bai Meng saw him like this, he knew something was wrong and confirmed that their guess was correct. The origin of this boss was indeed unusual. He looked at Wanyanxi and sighed, "He is

People from the Kingdom of Jin, right?"

"Yes, but I don't know him and I have never seen him."

"Huh?" Bai Meng was stunned when he heard Wanyanxi's words, "Then how did you know that he is from the Jin Kingdom?"

"Of course I know. Not only do I know that he is from the Jin Kingdom, but I also know his origins. He... looks quite similar to his father." Wan Yanxi's expression was very sad, and she walked slowly to the pickle garden.

In front of the boss's body, he wanted to reach out and touch it, but his outstretched hand stopped in the air for a moment and then he retracted it. "His father used to be my father's companion. Later, because of a murder case, the whole family was expelled.

His whereabouts since then are unknown.”

"But at your age, you shouldn't have seen them, right?" Seeing Wanyanxi about to explain, Bai Meng waved his hand towards him, "Follow me, Duke Shen and General Shen are here, take this person

Tell them clearly where you came from, so that you don’t have to tell me once and then tell them again.”

"Okay!" Wan Yanxi nodded, glanced at the pickle garden owner again, bowed respectfully to the Jin Dynasty, then covered the body with the white cloth again, and followed Bai Meng out of the wing.

Bai Meng led him to the guest room. After entering, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha were talking quietly. Song Qiyun and Jin Miaomiao approached Xuanyuan Liang and asked him about the situation in the southwest border.

Seeing them coming in, everyone stopped talking. Their eyes passed over Bai Meng and fell on Wanyanxi.

Wanyanxi was a little nervous being stared at by so many people. He swallowed, followed Bai Meng in and saluted everyone in the room.

"I just took him to see the body, and I can confirm that our guess is basically correct. Moreover, he also said that he knew the origins of the boss and the boss's father." Bai Meng asked Wanyanxi to sit down, "The boss's father...

..." He looked at Shen Haolin, "It's the old shopkeeper, he..." Pointing at Wan Yanxi, he continued, "Father's companion."

"The companion of the former King of Jin? Shouldn't that be the nobles of the Jin Kingdom?" Song Qiyun asked in confusion, "How come he ended up living in a foreign country? I've never heard of nobles working as spies!"

"Your Majesty, you are overthinking, not your eyeliner." Wanyanxi sighed, his face even worse than before, "He was expelled and will never be allowed to step into the Kingdom of Jin."

"Wait a minute." Shen Cha noticed Wanyanxi's discomfort and saw that his face was pale and without any blood. At the same time, he also noticed that he was not even wearing a cloak and his voice was trembling when he spoke. "Why do you feel that your condition is worse than the previous two days? Have you continued to take the medicine that Miaomiao prescribed for you? Don't say that you will be better soon and stop taking the medicine."

"Don't worry, General, I've been eating and won't mess around anymore. I still have a lot of things to do," Wanyanxi unconsciously rubbed her back when she saw Jin Miaomiao walking to sit next to him. ,"gold……"

"Jin, Jin, what are you hiding from? I won't eat you! Reach out!" Jin Miaomiao grabbed his outstretched hand angrily, "It's indeed better than the past few days. Let's eat for a while. If you take the medicine, you will be completely cured. But I would like to advise you to recuperate honestly and don’t always think about what you have and don’t have. It is too energy-consuming and will not do you any good."

"Okay!" Wanyanxi nodded, "I...I'll try my best!"

Jin Miaomiao rolled her eyes and roughly thrust her hand stove into Wanyanxi's hand.

"Hold on, those paws are as cold as ice!" She sighed heavily and turned to look at Bai Meng, "You too, no matter how anxious you are, you have to let him hold the stove and put on the cloak. . He is already ill. If it happens again, will you be responsible for treating him?"

"Hey!" Bai Meng belatedly realized that Wanyanxi was still ill after being mentioned by Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao. He looked at Wanyanxi, whose face was blue from the cold, and felt a little embarrassed. , "That me..."

"Commander, don't worry. I understand your feelings. If it were me, I would do the same. I'm fine, just take it easy." Wanyanxi twitched the corner of her mouth, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying. "I really don't know the person lying in that room, but I have seen his father's portrait. He and his father are very similar in profile and eyebrows."

"So, their family is really a noble?"

"The surname is Jin Zhuolu."

"It's amazing. He still has a common surname, and it's really hidden!" Bai Meng nodded, "You just said that he was deported because of a murder case?"

"Yes!" Wanyanxi nodded, "Commander, don't be impatient, listen to me slowly. I've just said it before, I've seen him..." Pointing to the direction of the wing where the body was placed, he continued, "His father's portrait, because when my father was still alive, he took out the portrait more than once and sighed while looking at it. Not only did he sigh, his expression was also very sad, very nostalgic, and very guilty."

"Guilty?" Shen Cha frowned, "Is there something fishy about that murder case?"

"The general hit the nail on the head." Wanyan nodded happily, "Once, I saw my father looking at the portrait again, and he actually cried when I looked at it. You should know very well who my father is. Can you I was really curious to make him cry like that. So, I asked him who the person on the portrait was. My father said that this was his best, most trusted friend and most loyal brother in his life. He was also the only person he felt the most sorry and guilty about. He told me a story about when he was a prince, which was the so-called murder case I just mentioned. That murder case was caused by six people who were competing for the throne with their father. Zhuo Lu first discovered the flaw in Uncle Wang's game and pretended to be his father, making Uncle Liu Wang mistakenly think that his father had been deceived and took the blame for him." He sighed softly, "Because Zhuo Lu Lu was a common surname, so he was exempted from the death penalty, but he was expelled from the Jin Kingdom and was not allowed to set foot in the Jin Kingdom for generations to come. However, his father also rehabilitated him and invited him to go back, but he was refused. He said to leave. Amidst the chaos and intrigues in the court, it’s nice to live a peaceful life.”

"So that's it." Shen Cha nodded, "Do you know Qingdie?"

"Qingdie?" Wanyan frowned happily, "How could the general know this?"

"Except for this boss, his family and his associates all died from Qingdie." Shen Cha looked at him seriously, "As far as we know, Qingdie comes from the Jin Dynasty royal family, and only the Wanyan family has it, so …”

"The general is wrong." Wanyanxi shook her head, "The stories you heard about Qingdie are all false. They were fabricated by Uncle Liu Wang, and Qingdie was created by him. He originally fought for the throne. When he was young, Qingdie helped him make a lot of achievements. However, after my father came to the throne, he destroyed all the Qingdie, not a single bottle was left, so why are there still people living outside?"

"Not one bottle left?" Shen Cha sneered, "As far as we know, at least three bottles have appeared again."

"Three...three bottles?" Wanyan frowned happily, "I don't know about that, I..."

"It would be strange if you knew about it at your age." Shen Cha smiled and shook his head, "By the way, your uncle Liu Wang who knows how to make medicine is still alive?"
