What should I do if my junior brother becomes a bad old man?

Seeing this situation, Xiaoyu vaguely knew that the concubine had already decided to meet Ren Sha.

This meeting is much more important than the meeting between her and the concubine.About the matter between Ren Zhen and the concubine's younger brother Bai Ruxie, she had roughly heard from Immortal Guichen.Although Immortal Guichen knew very little, and only told her about Bai Ruxie's strange obsession and some scenes of his death, for Xiaoyu, just knowing these things was enough to make her imagine the concubine's love. Complicated mood at this time.

In Xiaoyu's view, it is not surprising that the concubine refused to meet Ren Sha.However, judging from the current situation, it is obvious that the concubine has made up her mind to see Ren Sha.According to Xiaoyu's conjecture, maybe the concubine wants to learn some inside information that no one knows.Or maybe it's because the life in this deep palace is really too boring.

All in all, since the concubine decided to see Ren Zhen at this time, Xiaoyu knew that if she stayed, she would only annoy her master, so she immediately got up and left.The concubine was obviously very satisfied with her understanding, but she still said some words to persuade her to stay, so she asked the maid to take her out.As soon as Xiaoyu walked to the door, she saw another maid leading Ren Zhen in.Xiaoyu blinked at Ren Zhen, but Ren Zhen seemed to be thinking about something, and she didn't notice her at all.

At this moment, Ren Sha really has something on her mind.

Although it is true that Bai Ruxie's death was his own fault, after all, this matter has a very close relationship with Ren Xun. Now that he is going to see Bai Ruxie's only sister, even Ren Xun is a little embarrassed. In front of the concubine, what should be done What kind of expression should I put on?

But after seeing the concubine, Ren Zhen's attention was all on the concubine.

Ren Zhen didn't pay much attention to the appearance of the woman, and he was not very good at distinguishing Chi Yan, so he didn't have any special views on the appearance of the concubine.However, he has been practicing observing people's expressions for many years, and he still has some experience in the changes of people's expressions and the state of the body.He found that the person in front of him had a very obvious sick appearance, like a woman who had been ill for a long time in the world.Ren Zhen had never seen such an expression on a fox demon with cultivation base, but when he saw it now, he couldn't help feeling a little pity.

Her spirits were sluggish at first, but when Ren Xiao appeared in front of her, she stood up suddenly, and her face changed, revealing an expression of panic, fear or anger, but this expression was fleeting. He tried his best to hide his emotions on the verge of eruption, calmed his face, and even smiled at him.

Ren Zhen pretended not to see the concubine's gaffe, and nodded to her as a salute.The little maid at the back moved a chair, and he sat down too.

The concubine also sat down on the beauty couch again, sent her eyes away from the maid who was serving at the side, and then turned her eyes back to Ren Xun.Her shoulders were straightened, as if she wanted to appear stronger in front of him, but her efforts didn't seem to have any effect, because when she spoke, Ren Xiao noticed that her voice was somewhat trembling:

"You are... Ren Sha. I've heard about you a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet you in such a situation now."

The concubine's opening remarks made it difficult to answer. If Gu Xunzhi, the person sitting across from him at this time, must feel guilty and bow his head after hearing such words.But the person here at this time is Ren Xun. When facing people other than Gu Xunzhi, he was indifferent to the point of being almost cruel, so he just nodded:

"I am Ren Xun, you heard about me from Bai Ruxie, right?"

Because the concubine's condition is not good, most of the maidservants in the West Palace have tried to avoid mentioning that name recently, so after learning the unfortunate news, this is the first time that the concubine has heard Bai Ruxie mentioned. .Hearing that name suddenly, the concubine finally couldn't control her emotions, and her eyes became moist. She nodded:

"He said it... I heard him say a lot about you..."

Speaking of this, she choked up a bit, and seemed unable to continue, but looked at Ren Zhen with eyes that were almost condemning.The atmosphere fell into deathly silence and embarrassment, but Ren Xiao didn't make any special reaction, nor said a word of comfort, and always maintained a calm and indifferent attitude.

However, Concubine Tai is not an ordinary person, she calmed down quickly, and said to Ren Zhen:

"The lord of the country has told me what happened before, but the lord of the country was concerned about my body and refused to tell me the details. Besides, he was not at the scene at the time, and many things were only reported by others, so he was not really clear. Today It is a rare thing for me to see you, so please come and answer the questions I have always had in my heart."

Ren Sha nodded:

"Excuse me, my concubine."

The concubine seemed to hesitate a bit, as if she felt that it was too embarrassing to ask this question.But she still asked:

"Did he... died by your hands?"

This is really a difficult question to answer.Although Bai Ruxie did die by his sword, it was the result of suicide.But judging from the situation at the time, even if he didn't commit suicide, he probably wouldn't live for too long.In any case, Ren Xun refused to evade responsibility on such a matter, so he just thought for a while, then nodded:

"it's me."

The acknowledgment of this question seemed to have greatly shocked her. The concubine's already pale face was as white as paper at this time, and she looked as if she was about to faint in a second.Ren Zhen was almost ready to stand up and call her maid, but her complexion gradually returned to normal.She lowered her eyes, opened her lips lightly, and uttered three words:

"……Thank you."

It's not that Ren Zhen couldn't understand why Concubine Toffee wanted to thank her at this time.Maybe she was thanking him for telling her the truth, maybe she was thanking him for discovering Bai Ruxie's troubles in time and avoiding worse things in the future, maybe she was just standing on Bai Ruxie's standpoint, thinking that he It is much better to die at the hands of the person one admires than to die at the hands of others... Although there are so many reasons that can be cited, these three words still make Ren Zhen feel weird.

The enemy who killed his younger brother was right in front of him, and he was obviously heartbroken, but he wanted to thank him.This does not conform to the human mentality that Ren Xiao understands, and it confuses him.However, he still decided not to think about the complicated emotions of the concubine in front of him, and decided to bring the topic to the issues he was interested in:

"You should be able to guess the purpose of my coming here, right?"

You don't need to speak too clearly when talking to a smart person, Toffee nodded.

"Thank you for telling me the truth... Telling you what I know is considered... repayment."

Ren Zhen noticed that when the word "repay" was mentioned, Concubine Toffee trembled.Speaking of which, he also felt that these two words were a bit too heavy to be used here.But no matter what, the concubine was willing to cooperate, which can be regarded as an unexpected good thing.So Ren Sha didn't make a sound, just bowed his head and accepted.

The concubine sighed faintly:

"Since he came back from outside that time, I have felt that he has become very different from before. Others can't see it, how can I, as a sister, not know. He didn't want to reveal it to me, but I couldn't help it. Ask. Finally told me about the Sky Demon Fox."

Hearing the word "Tianmohu" again, Ren Sha's heart skipped a beat.

I only heard the concubine say again:

"The white fox clan in Qingqiu Kingdom has always worshiped the Heavenly Demon Fox as their ancestor. When the country was first founded, a Heavenly Demon Fox was born. Later, although there were no more Heavenly Demon Foxes in the clan, every few generations, there would always be a Heavenly Demon Fox. Stunning characters. Although there is no basis, those people in the White Fox Clan often regard them as Tianmohu. That time Ruxie said that he had learned how to become a Tianmohu. Although I didn’t believe it at first, I saw him cultivate It’s really amazing to make great progress, so I had to believe it. I asked him the source of that method. He refused to tell me the details, but said that he had seen the Heavenly Demon and learned about the method of the Heavenly Demon Fox’s cultivation from the Heavenly Demon.”

What the concubine said was indeed compatible with what the old fox Chilin said earlier.Ren Zhen nodded, only to hear her continue:

"I was worried about his situation at the time, so I specially kept him here for a few days, and sent reliable people to his house to pay close attention to his behavior. But for several years, he has not behaved in any special way. It's just that Quietly purchased a house outside. I thought he was getting older and had no one to accompany him, so I didn't care too much."

"Bai Ruxie still has a house outside?"

Concubine Toffee nodded, walked to the table, picked up a pen and wrote down an address for Ren Sha:

"This house seems to be bought in someone else's name, so most people don't know about it. If you are interested, you can go and see it."

This is new news that has never been heard before, just to get such information, it is worth a visit to the concubine today.Ren Zhen took the address, saw that the concubine had nothing to say, so she said goodbye to her, and went to Bai Ruxie's outer house immediately after she was about to leave the West Palace.

The concubine seems to have regained some energy at this moment, and sent him to the door of the room. Ren Zhen nodded to her again, and was about to leave when she heard her asking again:

"Do you think... Ruxie is really dead?"
