The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 157 shows some affection, but not much.

Ze County.

He Xuran hadn't seen Fu Meng for several days.

He sent someone to look for it in the jail.

No.

People have seen the inn from the inside out.

nor.

Seeing his trusted confidant enter from outside, he asked, "How did it go?"

The trusted aide respectfully replied, "I have already inquired with the Wei family army."

"Wei Jiajun, who stayed in Zexian, said it's nothing to worry about; he might suddenly reappear one day."

He Xuran: ...

He got up and walked outside.

The remaining cases are simple and have all been handed over to the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

The Vice Minister of Justice would send over the case files every day, and after he reviewed them and found no problems, the prisoners would be dealt with according to the law.

He Xuran has already begun investigating the matter of disaster relief grain.

This matter has far-reaching implications.

If the investigation continues, I fear it will cause turmoil in both the government and the public.

If it were someone else, they might have hesitated and trembled. But He Xuran, who was chosen by Wei Zhao, was truly fearless.

He Xuran planned to return to the post station to rest for a while before sorting out his thoughts and devising a plan. On the way, however, he ran into Yang Weiwen, who was carrying large and small bags.

Upon seeing him, Yang Weiwen quickly approached and gave him a deep bow.

"grown ups."

He Xuran nodded in acknowledgment and then took a step to leave.

The confidant, who was a few steps behind and already acquainted with Yang Weiwen, casually asked a question.

"Where are you going?"

Yang Weiwen: "I finally have some free time today, so I'm going to visit the Wei family."

Fearing his trusted confidant might not know who the Wei family he was referring to was, he said with a warm smile, "It's the Wei family from the Xiao Niang case that you tried before, sir."

“I’m not that familiar with them, but we had spent several days traveling together before I came to Zexian County.”

“I had heard Master Zhao mention that the Wei family lived next door to them, so I made a note of their address and wanted to go and see them.”

"That Wei family son is seriously ill, and I don't know how he is."

Yang Weiwen thought of Wei Shen's face, and then of the way Wei Zhao looked at him when he lifted his eyelids. He couldn't help but sigh; Wei Shen was sickly, but sometimes he had quite a commanding presence.

Once, he saw Hui Niang heating up pancakes and Yu Tingwan boiling medicine. He wanted to say a few words to Wei Shen on the oxcart.

then……

Wei Shen opened his eyes and spoke before he could.

His voice was slow and hesitant.

"Yang Weiwen".

Everyone calls him Lord Yang.

Wei Shen either ignored him or called him by his name directly.

"Tell me, what do you think of those people with the surname Ying?"

It should be the imperial surname.

It scared him to death.

But Wei Shen, with a lazy demeanor and a cool tone, asked, "Isn't it hateful?"

"You can't say that."

Yang Weiwen felt a chill run down his spine and rebuked, "It's fine if I hear it, but if other adults hear it, you'll have several heads to chop off."

Wei Shen gave a disdainful smirk and weakly pointed at the officials in front of him who were flattering each other.

"You mean them?"

The wind was strong that night, and although Wei Shen's voice was soft, it still reached his ears.

"Why are you panicking?"

Wei Shen's pale lips moved slightly, and the indifference and certainty in his eyes were impossible to ignore: "The mouths of the dead are the most secure."

Yang Weiwen didn't take it seriously at the time.

The Wei family has also said that Wei Shen is not very bright.

But those people are indeed... all dead now.

How could Yang Weiwen not overthink it!
He felt that Wei Shen was no ordinary person.

They even predicted this in advance. No wonder they're from the Wei family army!

Yang Weiwen thought that Wei Shen must have been on the battlefield and killed people, otherwise, even though he was so sick, how could he be more imposing than He Xuran?

Even his close confidants had a recollection of it.

After all, the adults had asked him to investigate his background.

Seeing that He Xuran had stopped abruptly, the confidant's eyes flickered slightly: "Now that you mention it, I remember. The way that dark-faced Wei family woman spoke and her dignified demeanor during the interrogation outside the prison cell was not like that of an ordinary woman."

Yang Weiwen agreed with this statement.

"Yes, I heard that he attended school for a few years when he was young."

He Xuran doesn't care about people he shouldn't care about.

These past few days he'd been busy with his work and hadn't thought about Yu Tingwan at all. But for some reason, when Yang Weiwen mentioned it, he asked her about it as if possessed.

"In such impoverished areas, even in the county town, it's difficult to support a student. How could her parents be willing to let their daughter go to school?"

Yang Weiwen had no idea about that.

"Perhaps he loves his daughter."

Yang Weiwen: "I'm just hoping that Wei Jiazi recovers well, otherwise, it will be so hard for her as a woman."

Yang Weiwen glanced at the sky; it was time for him to leave.

After all, I wanted to be back before sunset. I couldn't very well stay at someone else's house for a meal and cause trouble.

Yang Weiwen cupped his hands in greeting: "Then this humble official shall take his leave first?"

He Xuran's gaze was deep, and it was unclear what he was thinking.

Without his permission, Yang Weiwen was unsure whether to leave or not.

Something suddenly occurred to him.

Yang Weiwen began enthusiastically: "Sir, you and General Wei have known each other since childhood. Your friendship over the years must have only grown stronger. General Wei values ​​his soldiers the most, and that Wei family member was previously in the Wei family army."

"Would you like to go and take a look on behalf of General Wei? I'll show you the way, so you'll have company."

Trusted confidant: ?

You really dare to say that!

What is their master's status?
Furthermore, it's true that you and General Wei have a close relationship, but not a deep one.

After all, whenever Wei Zhao was present during the Imperial Academy examinations, I was always second place.

Xiao Huaiyan, who always ranked at the bottom of the class, would come over and ridicule He Xuran.

And then, in a cheap, hypocritical way, he said something.

Brother He, give it your best!

Later, the palace wanted Wei Zhao to be the Crown Prince's study companion.

Wei Zhao ran away.

He went to the military camp.

Then it fell on their grandfather.

Even now, his confidants still remember how deep He Xuran's resentment was back then!
He Xuran made a sullen trip to the Duke of Shun's mansion because of this.

Then, for some unknown reason, Wei Zhao angered him and he left.

But ironically, despite the fact that He Xuran and General Wei did not usually have close contact, he was in a bad mood for several days after learning of Wei Zhao's death and did not leave his house.

After finally getting out the door, the first thing he said was...

—If Xiao Huaiyan didn't die, why did Wei Zhao die?
He Xuran, who didn't have much of a relationship with him, was momentarily dazed: "Lead the way."

Hutongs and alleys.

Wei family.

After taking the medicine, Wei Zhao lay listlessly on the couch.

Yu Tingwan stood guard by her side.

"Would you like some water, my husband?"

Wei Zhao frowned.

Yu Tingwan: "Is my husband hungry?"

Wei Zhao frowned.

Yu Tingwan: "Does your head still hurt?"

Wei Zhao continued to frown
Yu Tingwan was a little worried.

"Do you still feel nauseous?"

Wei Zhao's eyes darted around: "I have guts..."

He went on to emphasize five words: "A bad feeling."

This feeling is very strong.

Yu Tingwan, who was about to punch him, felt guilty and said, "No, you're wrong."

Wei Zhao turned his head and saw Yu Tingwan's hand hovering in mid-air, silently retracting it.

Wei Zhao:......

Yu Tingwan: ...

Wei Zhao: "I saw it."

Yu Tingwan had no choice but to admit, "I was wrong."

Wei Zhao remained expressionless.

The air is stagnant.

Yu Tingwan patted Wei Zhao's shoulder, leaned closer affectionately, blinked her eyes, and said in a very conciliatory tone, "Your wife is in an awkward situation, so please do something to help her out."

The girl cleared her throat and said again, "I was wrong."

He stared at the ceiling, utterly dejected: "I'll change from now on."

Yu Tingwan: I was wrong.

Wei Zhao: I'll change it.

after
Wei Zhao: I was wrong.

Yu Tingwan raised her fist, giving him a death stare: What did you do wrong?
