Chapter 7: Investing in relatives (6)
Chapter 7: Encountering a relative (6)
Chen Huai returned to the table and sat down, and asked in a calm tone: "Tell me, how did Mei Yingchun discover the old man's secret?" Chen Jun whispered: "I think Mr. Mei is a person with a heart. He lived in our house for more than a month. On several occasions when his father went out, he followed him, and as a result... he discovered the truth." Chen Huai raised his eyebrows: "You call this 'hearted'?" Chen Jun muttered red face: "Brother! Mr. Mei, although he discovered the truth, I begged him not to speak. He agreed, but he really didn't say it. Even Mr. Li and Mr. Di, he didn't say it." Chen Huai looked at Chen Jun carefully and said coldly: "You beg him, he agreed? It seems that he listened to you very much." Chen Jun trembled all over and lowered his head.
Chen Huai ignored Chen Jun's embarrassment and continued to say to himself: "If Mei Yingchun really didn't reveal the truth to Li Yuanfang and Di Jinghui, then these two people shouldn't have the chance to know. This is better... In this way, the old man's death is mostly related to the things he went out to do on New Year's Eve. Maybe it's also related to Mei Yingchun!" Chen Jun trembled all over again, raised his head and wanted to speak, but he still held it back.
Chen Huai picked up Li Yuanfang's letter and read it again. He felt that he could not see more of the name for the time being, so he carefully put it in his arms. At this moment, he noticed Chen Jun's uneasy look opposite him, so he smiled slightly, reached out, gently clenched her hand, and said softly: "No matter what, you are here in Luoyang, this is the most important thing. How long has it been since we met?" Chen Jun's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "It's almost two years." "Is that so fast? I don't think so." Chen Huai smiled embarrassedly and asked again: "Ajun, have you ever thought about what to do in the future?"
Chen Jun raised his head and looked straight into Chen Huai's eyes. The light of the moment he had just met him flashed again in his eyes, and replied earnestly: "Brother, just do what you say, I will listen to you." The expectations in her eyes were so strong and deep, which forced Chen Huai to look away. After a while of silence, Chen Huai cheered up and smiled: "You settle down first, and then let's make a long-term plan. Anyway, there is still time. I have found a secluded small yard in an alley away from Di Mansion. I have packed it up and you can move in tomorrow."
Chen Jun nodded and asked softly, "Brother, do you... live there too?" Chen Huai coughed and said, "I am the captain of the guard of Master Di Ge. I live in his mansion according to the rules. But the yard I found for you is very close to Di Mansion, just to see you frequently." Chen Jun thought about it and said with a slightly blushing face: "Since that's the case, let Aunt He live with me?" Chen Huai frowned: "What Aunt He?" "It's written in my letter..." Chen Huai raised his hand and interrupted Chen Jun's words: "It shouldn't be left with such unknown people. But since it's an old woman, it's okay. Just let her be your companion. It's really inconvenient for you to live alone. I'll find another servant for you, and it's all right."
As he said that, Chen Huai looked out the window, stood up, and said, "It's the second day. I have to go back to Di Mansion. You can rest here tonight, and I will pick you up tomorrow morning." Chen Jun also stood up and walked to the door of Chen Huai in silence. Chen Huai shrugged and said, "Then, I'll leave." Seeing Chen Jun lowering his head and silently, he raised his hand and stroked her hair gently, and then said in a low voice: "I'm leaving. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
Chen Huai walked out of the courtyard and looked back. When he saw Chen Jun still standing motionless at the door of the room, the moonlight shining on her white clothes, she was dressed in silver. But what kind of passion and enthusiasm is hidden under this quiet appearance? Chen Huai shook his head and warned himself not to think too much. The ominous premonition was becoming stronger and stronger after the conversation just now. With Chen Tingfang's death and Shen Jun's arrival, what kind of fate changes will he face? Chen Huai knew that he needed to be calm and calm at this time. Through the corridor, Chen Huai found the shop assistant in the ear room, and asked about the room where Mei Yingchun stayed, so he went to find him.
Just as Shen Huai and Chen Jun were talking, Mei Yingchun returned to the yard he had booked alone. As soon as he entered the main house, he saw the oil-black longbow placed in the middle of the table. He smiled faintly, raised his hand and gently stroked the bow, and said coldly in Turkic words to the outside of the door: "Since you are here, let's show up. Why hide?"
A Turkic man in black clothes leaned over to the door, bowed respectfully to Mei Yingchun, and said, "Teiheer has seen His Highness the Prince." "Yes." Mei Yingchun nodded and asked coldly: "Are you all here?" "Yes." Tieheer bent down and replied, "According to your instructions, we all live in the side courtyard here."
Mei Yingchun still didn't look at Tehel, and said casually: "Although I stayed there, I was not allowed to go out without my orders, I was not allowed to talk to others, be careful in words and actions, and not leave the inn for half a step. Is it clear?" Tieher nodded and bowed, even claiming yes, and said flatteringly: "Please rest assured. Brothers, you have been staying in this inn, and have never moved a step." Mei Yingchun glanced at him at this moment and said: "It's not that I was deliberately harsh. You big group of people are strange and too eye-catching. I don't want you to cause trouble." "Yes, yes, Your Highness is extremely worried. Brothers will never dare to cross the line at all."
Mei Yingchun looked coldly at Tieheer, and she disagreed with his servile appearance. When his uncle Chi Duo Khan sent this person to Mei Yingchun, he clearly wanted to monitor his words and deeds. As the Khan's Flying Eagle General, Tieheer did not take Mei Yingchun as the so-called prince at first. After all, Mei Yingchun had been away from the clan for many years, and the people in the Tuqishi tribe almost forgot the existence of this great prince, and thought he had died in a certain place in the Central Plains and disappeared forever.
Therefore, when Mei Yingchun was recalled by the old Khan before her death, the people in the clan were surprised, and they were more suspicious and contempt for him. The suspicion was the purpose of his separation from the clan for many years and suddenly appearing when his father was about to die; the contempt was his behavior of escaping the responsibility of the tribe leader and leaving his family and leaving his country to go far away. For Chi Duo, who had been glimpsing the position of Khan for a long time, the appearance of this eldest nephew almost disrupted his entire plan to implement the tribe's rule step by step for many years.
