How could the handsome, outstanding and dazzling young man in the past have grown up like this!
The visual gap was so big that Lao Liang couldn't even distinguish the key points for a while.
When he left that year, the Xie family had not yet entered the capital, and everyone in the army called him the Second Young Master of King Yan——
But...why did King Yan want to find him?
Lao Liang was extremely puzzled. After a moment of silence, he said in a hoarse voice: "Although I was lucky enough to escape death and became a deserter, I was originally a servant of the Ji family, and all I wanted at that time was to survive. With the prince,
There is no special occasion... I wonder why Your Majesty went to such trouble to find me?"
Perhaps because he understood the prince's personality, he no longer had the unknown anxiety he had when facing the Xu family girl.
"It's for the sake of old things."
King Yan did not sit down, but stood in front of him and asked, "I want to know what happened to your two young masters on their way back to the camp?"
Hearing that he actually asked about this matter, Lao Liang, no, Feng Liang's eyes dodge for a moment.
This incident was the reason why he deserted the army, and it had become a knot in his heart over the years.
Then I heard King Yan ask firmly: "Are those who killed Qingyun and Qingcheng really the enemy's pursuers?"
Ordinarily, the route the Ji brothers took back should not be known to the enemy.
After Feng Liang was silent for a moment, he said: "I'm not sure."
"uncertain?"
"Because they were wearing black clothes... and their faces were covered. I don't know who they are." Mentioning this past event and thinking of the bloody scenes at that time, Feng Liang's voice became hoarse.
A masked man in black?
King Yan's eyes changed slightly: "Since you were able to escape, the other party did not find out that you were still alive. Under this condition, did you really not find any other clues?"
Feng Liang was silent for a moment, the light and dark in his eyes changing uncertainly.
"It's already an old story. The two young masters have been dead for many years...I can't remember many details at that time."
Seeing his concerns and concealment, King Yan said: "Don't worry, since you have nothing to do with what happened back then, I will never hurt you in the slightest. All I want is the truth."
Over the years, the reason why he has been secretly pursuing this matter, even if the clues have been interrupted many times and he has no clue, is not to prove his so-called innocence——
In this matter, there is no question of whether he is innocent or not. If something happens to the person he brought out, no matter what the process is, it is all his responsibility.
He just wanted to find out the real cause of death of his two friends.
"..." Facing such a pair of eyes, Feng Liang finally spoke.
"Those people ambush there in advance, and from their subsequent conversations, it can be seen that the reason why they ambush here is actually to intercept and kill you, the second young master..."
To be precise, they wanted to kill everyone who returned, but they didn't expect that the second young master was not among them.
King Yan's pupils shrank.
Ambush early...
To kill him?
Hearing this, King Yan almost had the answer in his heart, and his voice became calmer. He looked at Feng Liang and said, "Please tell me everything you remember in detail."
Feng Liang closed his eyes and fell into memories.
He just said that it had been so many years and he could no longer remember the details, which was naturally a lie.
At that time, the two young masters died tragically, and he almost lost his life. Not only did all these situations not fade away with time, but they became more and more profound and were firmly engraved in his mind.
"..."
After listening to what Feng Liang said, King Yan gradually straightened his thin lips.
Xu Mingyi and Wu Chao just listened and did not interrupt, nor did they help King Yan to deduce and analyze anything - many old things will not be blurred by time, but will become clear and clear due to the passage of time, like water falling.
And the stone came out.
Under this circumstance, it is self-evident who is the mastermind behind the scenes.
"This matter should be reported to Minister Ji truthfully." King Yan, who had been silent all this time, began to speak.
In terms of emotion and reason, Shangshu Ji is truly the person who should not be deceived.
Hearing the name of his former master, Feng Liang looked complicated and ashamed.
At that time, it was mainly because he did not dare to go back and face the master, and did not know how to explain to the master that the two young masters were dead, but he was alive and well, so he did not dare to go back later.
Over the years, he had not thought about finding the master and explaining the strangeness of the past, but after thinking a lot, he could not make up his mind.
He made many excuses for himself. For example, the master may have known the truth a long time ago, and also because people cannot be resurrected after death, and since the master is now in a high position, it may not be a good thing to re-examine the past.
Although he was not sure about the origins of those men in black, and he was only focused on escaping for his life at that time and could not think clearly, but combined with everything that happened later and whose hands the Xie family finally fell into, he gradually guessed...
…
Xu Mingyi asked someone to get pen and paper.
…
In the residence of the Minister of War, Ji Wanyou was doing embroidery work on the lamp.
She promised to embroider a sachet for her father, but she didn't specialize in the study of women's red. What she imagined in her mind was not exactly the same as what her hands embroidered, or even had nothing to do with it.
"Girl, you might as well continue embroidering tomorrow. Doing these at night will hurt your eyes." The maid reminded from the side.
"It doesn't matter, once in a while. And it's still early, so I can't sleep after all." Ji Wanyou said, frowning and sighing, okay, this stitch was embroidered by mistake again, and then she looked at the person holding the needle with regret.
Fingers and mouth can actually hinder you?
At this time, a second-class maid came in from outside.
"Girl, someone just sent a letter, claiming to be Miss Xu."
Miss Xu?
Ji Wanyou couldn't help but be startled.
Miss Xu actually wrote to her?
"Give it to me quickly."
She has been wanting to find Miss Xu recently, whether it's to say thank you or sit down to have tea and talk together, she really wants to interact with this girl.
But considering that the other party didn't want to get involved too much with the Ji family, they didn't dare to send letters or posts.
Now that I got a letter from the other party, my first reaction was of surprise.
But it seems that Miss Xu is not looking for her...
Looking at the content of the letter, Ji Wanyou's eyes flashed with confusion.
What does Miss Xu want from her father?
Although she was doubtful in her heart, she didn't delay. Ji Wanyou got up immediately and took the letter to find Ji Xiu.
Ji Xiu was handling official duties in the study. When he heard his daughter coming, he thought he was here to deliver soup, so he put down his pen and planned to have a good meal.
However, when the door was opened, the soup was gone, and the girl was seen holding a letter in her hand.
"Father, Miss Xu from the Duke's Mansion has just sent a message."
Ji Wanyou walked to the desk, handed the letter to her father, and said, "The letter didn't go into too much detail. It just said that you should go see a man named Feng Liang..."
Ji Xiu frowned in confusion.
What is Feng Liang and Feng Buliang?
After being beaten by Zhen Guo Gong, when he heard the words "Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion", his heart skipped a beat - he couldn't be tricked into beating him up? After all, what's so ridiculous about Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion?
