Under the watchful eyes of the two, Wei Rou's scalp felt numb, and her cheeks couldn't help but heat up.

She bit the bullet and said: "It's Rou'er who insists on doing this, it's none of your husband's business."

Gu Xi: ...

He Zheng: ...

Gu Xi suppressed the smile that welled up in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth couldn't stop turning up.

He Zheng, on the other hand, blushed and shook his sleeves and said, "Anyway, it's his fault that he didn't take good care of you! Don't cover it up for him!"

Gu Xi stood where he was, listening to the training uncharacteristically.

"Master He is right. I will be more careful in the future."

Wei Rou: ... Please shut up.

He Zheng obviously couldn't listen anymore, and after a few words to Wei Rou, he turned around and left.

Wei Rou called him suddenly.

"Uncle He."

He Zheng looked back at her with a gentle expression.

Wei Rou thought of what she saw in the secret room last night, and it was really difficult to connect with He Zheng in front of her. Everything reminded her that He Zheng was not a kind person but a ruthless one.

She took a deep breath and smiled.

"I haven't seen my aunt for a few days. I heard that my aunt is recuperating in the villa. I wonder how my aunt is doing?"

When He Zheng heard that he was asking this, he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm sick. She will come back after a few days of care. She will be very happy to know that you care so much."

Wei Rou went on to say: "It happens that I have nothing to do these few days, and I want to visit my aunt in the villa. Uncle He probably won't refuse, right?"

He Zheng was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then a look of distress appeared on his face.

"Even if it's not good enough, your aunt won't be able to see the wind for a few days, so she has to stay indoors. How about I send you there after she gets better in a few days?"

Wei Rou didn't insist, and said regretfully, "That's the only way to go."

He Zheng didn't stay any longer and left in a hurry.

Wei Rou watched He Zheng's leaving back, and suddenly whistled.

Immediately afterwards, two eagles circled in the air and flew in the direction of He Zheng.

After doing this, Wei Rou turned her head to look at Gu Xi beside her.

"Do you think that his walking posture is a bit weird?"

Gu Xi naturally knew who the "he" in Wei Rou's mouth was referring to, he nodded and said, "He has injuries."

Gu Xi used an affirmative sentence, obviously already confirmed.

Wei Rou raised her eyebrows, a little surprised.

"There is still someone who can hurt him?"

Thinking that there are many capable people around He Zheng, even the shadow guards who belonged to the former son of Duke Wei's mansion are very likely to be under his command, so how could he be injured so easily?

Gu Xi: "The wound is on the shoulder. This position is not accessible to ordinary people."

Wei Rou was even more surprised.

"You mean, someone around him hurt him? Who could it be?"

Wei Rou suddenly stopped.

Who else could it be?

In the entire prefect's mansion, the only one who could get close to He Zheng besides the concubines was Mrs. He.

A few days ago, Mrs. He suddenly felt ill and went to the villa to rest, but she didn't see He Zheng in those two days.

Maybe Mrs. He hurt He Zheng that night. In order to prevent her from talking badly in the mansion, He Zheng took him to the villa early in the morning. It was called to rest and recuperate, maybe it was to cover up other things... …

The more Wei Rou thought about it, the more frightened she became.

It also reminded me of the chains and shackles in the secret room. Could it be Mrs. He who was locked in the secret room?

Just what happened between the two?Why did He Zheng lock his wife into a secret room?Why did Madam hurt He Zheng?With He Zheng's moody personality, why didn't he just kill Mrs. He?

Various questions linger in Wei Rou's mind.

It seems that only by finding Mrs. He can we know the truth.
