Dali Temple Small Dining Room - Chapter 426

Seeing the girl looking up at him suddenly, Lord Yasukuni snorted lightly, disapprovingly: “Ah Fei’s concealment is good, no one can find any faults. But such things can be seen by looking at the eyes. What kind of evidence does he use to investigate the case?”

   Not everything in this world needs evidence, and some things can be known without evidence at all.

  Wen Mingtang looked at Lord Yasukuni, but did not speak.

  Grand Yasukuni didn’t talk nonsense, and said: “You just need to give the old man what Wen Xuance left for you.”

   Another thing! Wen Mingtang’s face changed slightly, and Lord Jingguo only looked up at the dragon pattern hovering above his head intently, without turning his head to look at her face at all, staring at the dragon pattern and continued: “This thing in your hands will only harm you. A thing of life is useless and deadly. After handing it over to the old man, the old man will destroy it and restore everything to its original state. If you want to be your cook, you can be your cook. You and Ah Fei only need you two Yes, I can assure you that no one will stop you two.” Having said this, he paused and murmured, “Although the ability of the old man’s incompetent son is not outstanding, he is still filial. Ah Fei is the second son, and his elder brother Standing on the lintel of the Lin family, Ah Fei can do whatever he likes, so let him do it!”

  Wen Mingtang moved his lips when he heard this, and was about to say something when Lord Yasukuni’s voice sounded again: “Actually…isn’t it a blessing to be plain?”

“Master Guo feels that plainness is a blessing, but I don’t know how many people envy his identity!” Wen Mingtang lowered his eyes and continued, “Being ordinary is a blessing, but ants can’t control their own lives. It’s okay if people don’t stare at you , if by chance there is a relative who is in trouble, it is a blessing to be ordinary, but it will also become a flat and round mud in the hands of others. The identity of the Duke of the country has more things to do, but it is not something that others can do at will. Someone who can handle it.”

Lord Yasukuni, who was concentrating on the dragon pattern on his head, seemed a little surprised when he heard this. He raised his eyes to look at Wen Mingtang, only to see that the girl was also looking at him at this moment, with a calm face, clear eyes, and slightly pursed lips. Sighing, he said, “Master Du Lingmou is the one who asked my daughter what she wanted, but no matter whether it is the Duke of the State or Lord Du, no one has ever made it clear to me what exactly you two want.”

  Hearing what the girl said, Lord Yasukuni frowned, and he looked at Wen Mingtang: “You mean you don’t know about this thing?”

  Wen Mingtang nodded, but before she could say anything, he was interrupted by Lord Yasukuni.

   “Impossible!” Lord Jingguo shook his head, pointed at Wen Mingtang, and said, “You are Wen Xuance’s only daughter, and the only remaining blood of the Wen family. If he doesn’t give you something, or tell you where he is going, who else can he give it to?”

  Wen Mingtang lowered his eyes, spread his hands, and said, “Those of you who are looking for something think that the thing is on me, maybe…Wen Xuance thinks the same way, so why are you fighting against me?”

  Is this… Lord Yasukuni frowned, but didn’t make a sound.

Wen Mingtang looked at Lord Jingguo and said, “I was only eight years old when I entered the palace, and the luggage I carried with me was turned upside down by Du Lingmou’s men long after I entered the palace. If there was any, it would have been found long ago. Besides, My aptitude is not considered smart, the Duke thinks that an eight-year-old child can really keep his mouth shut?”

  Prince Yasukuni frowned more and more.

  Wen Mingtang paused, and then said: “Or can Wen Xuance really feel at ease in handing over important secrets to a child?”

  Prince Yasukuni glanced at her, but did not speak.

  Seeing Duke Jing’s reaction, Wen Mingtang’s eyes flickered, and he said suddenly: “Actually, Duke Guo was wrong just now. I am not the only blood left in the Wen family.”

  Duke Yasukuni suddenly raised his eyes to look at her.

  Wen Mingtang said with a smile: “I also have a cousin named Wen Xiutang, who is two years older than me. She joined Yeting with me.”

  Prince Yasukuni frowned and asked, “Is there any difference between an eight-year-old child and a ten-year-old child?”

   “Of course there are no ordinary children.” Wen Mingtang spread his hands and said, “But if my cousin was known as a talented woman back then, wouldn’t she have been praised for her intelligence more than once?”

  Wen Xiutang’s temperament of being sharp everywhere and overpowering her, when Wen Xuance was famous back then, she tried every means to show her talent. Wen Mingtang remembered that she also wrote a few poems, of course some were written by her brothers, and some were bought with money. Although it’s not very good, but for a ten-year-old child, she can indeed be regarded as a talented girl.

   As for being praised for being smart…

“Although she was not very old back then, she participated in a lot of banquets in the back house. The Duke of the country should find someone to find out if my cousin is smarter than children of the same age.” Wen Mingtang said .

  Of course she said these words not only to Duke Yasukuni, since she was sent by the queen to deliver tea, the queen’s people must have heard her conversation with the Duke in the palace, and she also said it to the queen and the emperor.

   You can’t lie about things that you can know as soon as you ask, otherwise you will definitely reveal your truth. The Duke frowned, paused for a moment, and asked, “Where is she now?”

“She couldn’t bear hardships. Not long after she entered Yeting, she was implicated in the case of Goguryeo envoys and went to Jiaofang. Stay here, and listen to people in Jiaofang saying that they were redeemed by nobles and taken away.” Duke Jingguo’s face became serious when he heard this.

Seeing this, Wen Mingtang thought for a while, and said: “After I left the palace, King Yu sent people to kill me several times. She acted as the internal response of King Yu and helped King Yu summon me. On the way back, there were killers chasing me. Kill me, I saw a lot of pedestrians on the street at that time, if I didn’t happen to meet Lin Shaoqing and Liu Sicheng, my daughter would have died that day.”

  When he heard that Wen Xiutang had helped King Yu to kill his sisters, Lord Jingguo’s expression turned cold, obviously a little contemptuous of Wen Xiutang’s behavior.

  Wen Mingtang said again: “Because King Yu was banned by Wen Xuance’s participation in the concert, he hated the little girl. It doesn’t make sense to kill the little girl, and the little girl doesn’t dare to think too much.”

  As soon as the words fell, Lord Yasukuni sneered and said, “However, for the revenge of foot restraint, why do you need to kill people in the street? There must be another purpose for this move.”

  It is true to say so, but…Wen Mingtang thinks it is not surprising that a narrow-minded person like King Yu would do such a thing.

  No matter what, King Yu is dead now.

Wen Mingtang said again: “The people in Jiaofang should be aware of her movements back then. How could people like King Yu allow Wen Xiutang to find another guest to enter the curtain? That’s why King Yu died before he died, and she How come a nobleman who is willing to redeem her life came behind him? You know, the ransom fee for the top card in Jiaofang is not cheap!”

  What the girl said makes sense, but for him now, it might be a sign of misfortune!

  Duke Yasukuni squinted his eyes at Wen Mingtang in front of him.
