After receiving this letter from Mrs. Shizi by accident, Wei Rou already had a plan in mind.

It seems that Ji Ruoyu had already obtained important information back then, maybe he was just a little bit close to knowing the truth, but it's a pity that the people behind the scenes acted too quickly and fooled Ji Ruoyu into such a horrible appearance, so that he could neither inform nor report the truth. Unable to communicate with people, life is worse than death.

Really cruel hearted.

Wei Rou lowered her eyes slightly.

For the first time, she knew that the "father" she had called for several years was actually so ruthless that even her subordinates would use such cruel methods to torture her.

but……

Wei Rou suddenly turned to look at Gu Xi.

"If I remember correctly, Mr. Ji is a member of Shizi Shadow Guard, right?"

Gu Xi nodded: "There is an engraved lettering on his neck, it should be if there is no accident."

"Then don't you think it's strange? Since Mr. Ji is under Shizi, why doesn't he help Shizi? Instead, he helps Mrs. Shizi?"

Gu Xi paused for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth: "Back then, Mrs. Shizi was both talented and talented, and she was the most beautiful person in the city. Everyone knew about it."

Wei Rou was silent for a moment, then followed his words.

"You mean, Mr. Ji has a deep admiration for Mrs. Shizi, so he is willing to go through fire and water for her?"

"Rou'er, you have to understand that few men can refuse the request of a beautiful woman like Mrs. Shizi."

Wei Rou's voice dropped.

"It's very possible for you to say so. There is still a portrait of Mrs. Shizi hanging in the study of Duke Wei's mansion. If she is still alive, how can I be called the most beautiful woman in the capital?"

But saying this, Wei Rou felt even more sad.

Originally thought that she had inherited Mrs. Shizi's appearance, but now it was discovered that she and Mrs. Shizi were not blood relatives, which made people feel a little sour.

Gu Xi sensed her depression, stretched out his hand to touch her slightly cold cheek, and said, "Since we already know the truth, the most urgent task is to find out what happened back then. So many years have passed, and Mr. Ji is like this. Look, it will not take a day for you to find out the truth. It seems that we will continue to stay here for a while."

Wei Rou nodded, and then asked: "Will it delay your military affairs?"

Gu Xi smiled and shook his head.

"Don't delay, I have already asked Yan Hui to watch for me, but there are many trivial matters in Jiangnan, madam, would you like to accompany me?"

Wei Rou was amused by his words, remembering that she had asked him for support before, the sourness in her heart eased a little.

"it is good."

Wei Rou asked Wu Jiang to go to the Chu Mansion again. She originally planned to take Mr. Ji out to live in a spacious and comfortable environment, but she was worried that Mr. Ji would go crazy, so she took a break and now asked Wu Jiang to take good care of him.

Luo Yan is still studying, so naturally he can't take good care of him every day.

With Wu Jiang guarding Mr. Ji, Wei Rou will feel more at ease.

After picking up her mood, Wei Rou changed her clothes and prepared to go to the prefect's mansion for a banquet.

After much deliberation, He Zheng decided to hold the banquet in the prefect's mansion, which would be more sincere, and he would not have to worry about Wei Rou's restraint.

He didn't go anywhere that day, he just watched the servants tidy up the house in the mansion.

When He Chucai returned to the mansion after school, he saw red lanterns hung up in the mansion, and the housekeeper was looking around, he felt strange.

"What's the matter? My father is going to marry a concubine again? There are so many concubines in the backyard, and my father is not satisfied yet?"

He Chucai just learned new words from the book, so he will use them now.

The butler hung on his lips, and almost lost his breath.

Young master must speak carefully!
