Chapter 110 The Reason for Helping the He Family

Chapter 110 The Reason for Helping the He Family
Shen You didn't even notice the red spot on the back of her hand until she held it under the light.

"It's okay, I just got burned accidentally, it will go away after a while."

Before she finished speaking, Wen Zhi frowned and gently grabbed her hand.
Shen You was stunned, and only felt a warm breeze passing by, and the slight tingling sensation on the back of her hand disappeared.

The next second, Wen Zhi let her go, and when he looked down again, the burned spot was gone.

I knew it was impossible for ordinary people to travel between different dimensions, but Shen You was still a little dazed when looking at this scene.

Wen Zhi looked at the things on the table and asked, "You burned yourself just because you were cooking this dark dish?"

"This isn't some dark cuisine!" Shen You cleared her throat and poured him a can. "Actually, it's not that bad."

Last time I saw it on the street, it was selling for 25 yuan a cup.

Now she is glad that she didn't buy it. It just tastes like hot milk, and the scent of floral tea is not strong. It would be better to eat the flower cake directly on the plate.

Shen You suddenly thought of something and clicked twice on the system monitoring page to project the screen.

"There was a man who was exiled from the capital city in our store. Take a look and see if he is the man you are talking about."

Wen Zhi: "It's him. Thank you very much. His expenses in the store will be charged to me."

Shen You smiled and shook his head, "You have already sent me a high-footed dragon-patterned cup from the official kiln, how can I count this little thing from you?"

She picked up a dried taro with sea salt from the wooden plate lined with oil paper.
"Mr. He seemed surprised to hear that you were helping him."

It seemed as if he had never expected that Wen Zhi would have any connection with him.

"Did you tell him it was me?" Wen Zhi raised his eyes lazily, with a smile in his pleasant voice.

Shen You paused, "I didn't say it explicitly, but I guess I can't mention it, right?"

"No, whether he knows or not has no effect on me."

Wen Zhi put down the cup and leaned back in the rocking chair. His casual movements revealed an air of luxury.

"He Haizhou's father was a general under my command. He worked with me to expel foreign tribes and recover the lost territory of Da Qi. He once blocked a knife for me on the battlefield and almost lost his life.

Finally, he also helped with the arrow that was meant to kill me.”

Wen Zhi spoke lightly, without a trace of emotion on his face, as if he was not talking about his own affairs, but about an unimportant person.

The scene of that day seemed to appear before my eyes.

In the bleak battlefield, dark clouds covered the sky, and the generals in armor had gloomy faces.

He knelt in front of him and said he would pay with his life.

"For the sake of his family's lives and to protect the emperor of Da Qi, when I was sealed in the stone coffin, he refused to be granted the title of marquis and committed suicide by knife as an apology. Tsk, people are really contradictory."

Shen You looked at his nonchalant expression, and her heart tightened a little, "Seal, seal it in a stone coffin?"

"Yes."

Wen Zhi raised his head slightly, his Adam's apple rolling, and there was an indifferent smile in his dark eyes.

His voice was clear, but for some reason, it made people feel that the wind blowing past it was a little colder.
"When the old emperor first took the throne, he must have sincerely wanted to save Da Qi's country and people, so I made a deal with him, using his life in exchange for Da Qi's stability."

Shen You had already guessed what would happen next.

"He regretted it. No, he didn't want to die anymore."

She met Wen Zhi's gaze and took a deep breath.

"You are just too young. How can you believe in the emperor? Those who say that the world should be shared by all, few of them can have a good ending."

"Young? Are you sure I can use this word according to a person's age?" He stared at Shen You with his black eyes.

It is obvious that a person who can survive after being sealed in a sarcophagus cannot be a normal person. His words even revealed that he is not a human being.

Shen You corrected him seriously, "This refers to you at that time, you knew too little about people."

Wen Zhi could not deny that he had indeed underestimated the old emperor's meanness.

"So, you don't trust Li Heng?" "It depends on what the matter is. I trust the transactions in the shop, but not anything else." Shen You said without hesitation.

She only believes in what she holds in her hands.

If someone could compete for the throne, how could he possibly persist in such a terrible situation unless he was a man of deep mind?

Wen Zhi didn't know what was going on, but he actually looked quite happy.

Shen You tightened her fingers and asked, "Your deal is not over yet? Why are you still helping the He family?"

“It’s just a casual move. After all, he once blocked a knife for me.

From the perspective of Da Qi, it is normal for General He to help the emperor, as he has already paid for his life. "

Wen Zhi closed his eyes and continued, "The first question is, yes, the deal is not over yet."

"I also have to follow the rules in this plane. The token of the transaction is the sword of the Great Qi Emperor. If I can't get it back before he dies, the transaction will fail."

"What will happen if we fail?" Shen You's tone unconsciously became a little nervous.

"I haven't tried it." Wen Zhi raised the corner of his mouth, "Maybe I will be trapped in Da Qi until I perish, as the old emperor wishes."

"You can still laugh?" Shen You said unhappily.

Wen Zhi supported his chin with his slender fingers and looked at the lively expression on her face with bright eyes.

Thinking about it carefully, she seemed to be worried about herself just now.

"Where did the old emperor hide his sword? Even you can't find it?" Shen You also found it a bit unbelievable.

“The imperial mausoleum can be found, but the old emperor spent more than 30 years renovating that place.

After it is sealed, if it is reopened, the villages below will be destroyed due to the collapse of the ground veins and the backflow of water. In this plane, I cannot take the initiative to hurt people's lives except for transactions."

Wen Zhi told everything honestly.

What Shen You was thinking was: Anyone who could sit firmly on the throne under such circumstances must be ruthless.

It goes without saying that the old emperor would definitely find a way to prevent the people living in the villages below that place from moving away.

"How long can he live?"

Wen Zhi thought for a moment and said, "About five or six months."

"You must never cooperate with those who have the right to inherit the throne." Shen You reminded.

Wen Zhi nodded, looking very well-behaved.

Who could have imagined that this was the national teacher who made foreign races tremble in fear on the battlefield.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Shen You asked. "Or, you can give me the structure of the imperial tomb. Maybe someone in the antique circle knows how to deal with it."

After all, the construction level of Da Qi was not bad, but its research on mountains, rivers and terrain was not ahead of its time.

Wen Zhi opened his mouth and said softly, "Okay."

He first used his mobile phone to send the surrounding terrain to Shen You, and then used paper and pen to draw the internal results.

"Why did you mention me to He Haizhou?" he asked suddenly.

Shen You said directly: "From his experience of being convicted and exiled, he is a stern, upright official. He will remember the kindness shown to him when he was down and out."

Wen Zhi's dark eyes flickered as he looked at Shen You's calm expression, and a warmth that he had never felt before seemed to flow through his heart.

After finishing the painting, he gave it to Shen You and pointed at the words on it, very solemnly.
"Look, isn't it better than the handwriting of the scholar you saw at the stall last time?"

Shen You: He still remembers it.

"Yes." She nodded and said sincerely, "It's true that the painting is good and the calligraphy is beautiful. It will be an advantage to repair the murals!"

Wen Zhi: ???
