The concubine's concubine smiled charmingly, and the villain king would not hesitate to tease h

"Miss, the rice porridge is ready!" Qiuyue came in with the rice porridge.

Wen Xun'er came back to his senses, looked at Xiao Jiwei who was lying on the couch with his eyes closed: "I know you're not asleep, get up and drink porridge!"

She motioned for Qiuyue to help him up.

Qiuyue hurriedly stepped forward, took a pillow and put it behind Xiao Jiwei's back, and helped him up.

The boy's dark eyes stared at Wen Xun'er, with a trace of confusion and inquiry.

Wen Xun'er made sure the porridge was not hot, so he looked at him: "Open your mouth."

"No, I myself..." Xiao Jiwei stretched out his hand, only to find that his fingers were covered with gauze, and pressed back what he was about to say.

Wen Xun'er put the spoon to his lips, and immediately there was a strong smell of rice porridge.

Having not eaten for five days, Xiao Jiwei was already so hungry that he didn't know what his stomach felt like.

But the moment he smelled the aroma of food, he moved his lips instinctively.

The plump millet porridge is boiled until it turns plump and yellow, and it tastes sweet and glutinous, which just nourishes the stomach that has been empty for several days.

After Xiao Jiwei ate, he felt his entire abdomen warmed up, and his body gradually gained some strength.

Wen Xun'er stood up: "With his appearance, he must not be able to take care of himself. Let someone go to the imperial city and pick up Chunsheng tomorrow morning."

Xiao Jiwei's eyelids twitched, and when he looked up, he only saw the back of Wen Xun'er leaving.

Early the next morning, Chunsheng was sent to the monastery.

The moment he saw Xiao Jidan, Chunsheng cried and knelt down beside the bed: "My lord, I've only been away for a few days, why are you in this state?"

Xiao Jiwei frowned and glanced at him.

Chunsheng realized something, glanced at Wen Xun'er and the others at the door, quickly wiped away his tears and took the hot porridge aside to feed him: "My lord, I'll serve you porridge!"

Now that the people arrived, Wen Xun'er didn't intend to stay any longer, turned around and walked out.

After the door was closed, Chunsheng lowered his voice and said, "My lord, why are you covered in injuries? If Lord Rao finds out, don't rush to death!"

Xiao Ji gave him a cool look: "When you came, were they all okay?"

"Okay!" Chunsheng whispered, "But it's strange to say that the imperial guards have been patrolling around Pingluo Village in the north of the city for the past few days. Madam's residence was sold with the help of General Wen, so let's let it go, otherwise, I'm afraid I will really find out the son's yard!"

Xiao Ji's eyes narrowed, "What did you say? Pingluo Village?"

"That's right!" Chunsheng replied, "Madam has been dead for decades, no matter what, she shouldn't be found out, and I don't know where the imperial guards got the information, and they actually found out about that corner. Fortunately, Master Rao didn't go out after hearing the news, otherwise, if he went to fetch soil from the Madam's tomb as planned, it would most likely be exposed!"

Xiao Ji's dangerous eyes were full of surprise, and there was a faint light of shock.

Chunsheng just felt strange: "Does the young master know why?"

Xiao Jiwei looked at the millet porridge that Chunsheng was holding in his hand.

He remembered that at the hunting ground that day, that woman also accurately found out Zhang Yuan's daughter. Although he was not there at the time, Gu Yun described it to him vividly afterwards, and almost praised him as a cousin. People say she can tell fortunes.

Xiao Jiwei naturally didn't believe the fortune-telling.

But thinking about this journey, since she was picked up from the lake that day, her whole temperament has indeed changed drastically. Although she is still grumpy, every time she gets angry, it seems that she is provoked by him. When she was angry, the eldest lady's temper was quite different from before, especially this time.

If it was Wen Xun'er from before, let alone him, even if Wen Ruhai was lying here, she might not have this patience, not to mention, it was nearly two hours long!

"Have you ever heard of the resurrection of the dead?"

"Borrowing a dead body?" Chunsheng shrank his neck, feeling a little chill on his back, "Master, why did you mention this all of a sudden? Those are all rumors, unbelievable!"

It's really unbelievable, but when Xiao Jiwei was studying with him, when he was tidying up Gu Yun's desk, he accidentally turned over a book, and there was an article in it that mentioned the method of resurrecting the soul by borrowing a corpse.

At that time, I just had a casual glance and didn't believe it, so I didn't take it to heart, but today, comparing the Wen Xun'er in front of me with the Wen Xun'er in the past, this idea is getting stronger and stronger!

But even if he was resurrected from a dead body, how could he know that he was afraid of mice?

Speaking of his fear of mice, this incident can be traced back to when Yu Tang had just died.

Before Wen Ruhai found him, he lived a life of a beggar. At that time, he slept in a broken room full of rats, but at that time he was still young and was not afraid, until one night, he woke up in the middle of the night , and saw another little beggar in the same room was gnawed by rats beyond recognition, bloody and mutilated. At that time, there was thunder, and when the lightning illuminated the outside, he clearly saw the little beggar squatting on the white bones exposed outside. , I was frightened and stupid at that time.

Over the years, although he has stepped out of the shadows of the past, he still can't let go of the mouse.

But he never told anyone about this, except himself, no one else in the world knew about it, so how did Wen Xun'er know that he was afraid of mice?

"It's broken!" Xiao Jiwei didn't know what to think, and put on his clothes in a hurry to get up, but his body was too weak, so he fell back directly, sweating all over.

"My lord, what are you doing? You need to recuperate properly now that you look like this!" Chunsheng supported him.

Xiao Jiwei grabbed Chunsheng's arm: "Chunsheng, hurry back to the imperial city and let Master Rao and the others change places!"

Since she even knew that he was afraid of mice, maybe that house was no longer a secret!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiwei's face turned pale.

When Shen Wei came back after handing over the matters, he saw a woman in a black cloak standing under the corridor of the living room as soon as he returned to the mansion.

The butler came forward to welcome him: "My lord, Miss Wen has been waiting for you for more than an hour!"

Shen Wei looked at the dark sky and felt guilty for a while: "Sorry, I didn't know you were here."

Wen Xun'er came up to meet him: "I should say I'm sorry, I've come to bother General Shen again, I came to ask General Shen, how did the previous incident go?"

"Go in and talk."

Shen Wei lured her into the room, and told his servants to make tea before explaining the results of the past few days.

"Did you find nothing suspicious?" Wen Xun'er asked.

Shen Wei shook his head: "There are only a dozen families in Pingluo Village. My people searched every one of them, and found nothing suspicious. But why didn't you say that there is your Wen family's house there?"

"Wen's house?"

Wen Xun'er was stunned for a moment, and only then remembered such a plot: Wen Ruhai intended to sell Xiao Ji some money by selling the house, so he lied to him that the house had been sold.

But in fact, it was just a passer-by who bought the house at that time, and the people behind it were still the Wen family!
