Chapter 398: Now he says he doesn't understand? Why were you doing that earlier?
The boy was barely ten years old. His originally elegant blue clothes had become dirty due to the escape and fighting just now. He stood tall and straight, neither humble nor arrogant.
Although he had just killed someone, his hand holding the dagger was very steady. A few drops of bright red blood splashed on his face. Shen Yi was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes were bloodshot and his face was full of anger.
"You're hunting me and my mother, and you still dream of staying alive? Humph!" Ridiculous.
Looking at Shen Yi like this, Shen Qionghua was horrified.
When did her cute yet naughty brother become like this?
He killed a person without blinking an eye and looked calm and composed.
If the face wasn't the same one, Shen Qionghua would hardly have dared to recognize it.
When did he learn to kill? When did he learn martial arts?
How many things is he hiding from his sister?
Shen Qionghua opened her lips slightly, her eyes widened, and she stared straight at Shen Yi. After taking several deep breaths, she came back to her senses from the fact that "Shen Yi killed someone".
My first reaction was to see Lin Wanru’s reaction.
A'niang has never liked Ayi practicing martial arts. If she saw Ayi killing someone, wouldn't it be even more unacceptable to her?
It's not impossible that he was scared to death.
But to Shen Qionghua's surprise, Lin Wanru was not frightened or angry, but just touched her chest and looked at Shen Yi with complicated eyes.
There was a flash of confusion in Shen Qionghua's eyes.
Just as she was puzzled, Xie Nanyuan approached her secretly and explained softly, "When I met your mother and Ayi, Ayi's dagger was already covered in blood."
"Your mother just woke up from a coma not long ago when you came here."
Shen Qionghua suddenly understood, but was a little bit unbelievable.
So, this is not the first person Ayi killed?
At that time, An Yi and his men had tied up most of the people and ordered two secret guards to escort A Niang and A Yi away, but the two secret guards died, which was enough to prove that someone had caught up with them.
It is very likely that Ayi killed someone in order to protect himself and his mother while escaping.
It’s not that Ayi’s martial arts skills are so strong that he can compete with those secret guards, but he is young and has kept the fact that he knows martial arts a secret. Even she and A’niang don’t know about it, let alone the people arranged by Earl Yongning.
Faced with a young and powerless boy and a frightened and weak woman, a normal person would let down their guard, which gave Ayi the opportunity to take advantage of.
The reason why A'niang fainted after meeting King Rui was not only because she was frightened by almost losing her life, but more probably because she was frightened by seeing Ayi kill someone with his own hands, right?
After all, in A'niang's heart, Ayi has always been a child who is sometimes noisy but also obedient and sensible.
This sudden killing...
The image changed too quickly, and it is possible that my mother could not accept it.
Not to mention A'niang, even she couldn't fully accept it at the moment.
Shen Qionghua gathered her thoughts and saw that the brat had put away the dagger, wiped the blood off his face, pulled her sleeve, and smiled sweetly at her. He no longer had the ruthless look he had when he killed people before.
You're pretending to be clever and deceiving people again!
I'll settle the score with you when I get back!
Shen Qionghua glared at him fiercely.
Shen Yi stuck out his tongue and lowered his head.
The people were killed, but it was quite difficult to deal with the bodies.
Shen Qionghua looked at Xie Nanyuan and said, "Your Majesty, these corpses..."
"Don't worry." Xie Nanyuan said, "The Yongning Marquis's Mansion has been destroyed, and all males over ten years old will be beheaded soon. They can no longer be a force to be reckoned with. Besides, these people are afraid of being seen in public. If they die, they die."
"As for the body, I will take care of it."
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Qionghua with a bit of pity, and said in a gentle voice: "You must have been scared today. Madam Shen and Ayi were also frightened and very tired. Let's take them to rest early."
Shen Qionghua nodded, and turned around to see her mother pricking up her ears to listen to the noise over here.
Shen Qionghua: “…”
After saying goodbye to Xie Nanyuan with Lin Wanru and Shen Yi, he boarded the carriage prepared by Xie Nanyuan.
The carriage drove away slowly.
Lin Ze looked at the carriage going away and said, "Your Majesty, are you just going to let Miss Shen go like this? Why don't you talk to her for a while?"
The two of them spoke less than ten sentences in total. If I had known this would happen, why would I have gone to the trouble of going back to the capital to deliver the letter? Why not just send Mrs. Shen and Young Master Shen back to the capital directly?
Miss Shen has ignored the prince for several days. The prince couldn't even see her and was sulking in the mansion. Now that he finally saw her, he didn't even say a few words.
He was worried when he saw this progress.
Hearing this, Xie Nanyuan retracted his gaze, glanced at Lin Ze calmly, and said with his thin lips slightly opened: "What do you know! She and I are not in a hurry at this moment."
He didn't expect to be able to talk much with her under such circumstances. She must take care of Mrs. Shen and Shen Yi first.
Besides, he didn't gain nothing today. At least, she shouldn't be angry with him anymore.
What's more, his relationship with her was exposed in front of Madam Shen today.
This is enough, it can attract Mrs. Shen's attention without annoying her.
If there are more, I'm afraid I'll get angry and embarrassed.
Xie Nanyuan was secretly proud of his own sense of propriety, and felt that Lin Ze was just a clueless young man who dared to give him blind advice.
He glanced at Lin Ze sideways and said with disdain, "You haven't found a woman you like, so don't give me random advice in the future. You're pretending to know everything!"
After saying that, he walked away.
Only Linze was left standing there, his mouth wide open, a finger pointing at himself, his face full of disbelief.
He doesn't understand? He doesn't have a woman he's interested in? He's giving random advice?
Who is it that no one cares about, and who is so sad and resentful all day long in the house, with a changeable mood?
Who was it that always came to ask him when he seemed to understand his feelings?
Now that you know he has never experienced love affairs, don’t you understand?
Then what was he doing earlier?
Does he understand?
He took great pains to keep the person and sent him to the capital to deliver the letter.
So what if people see it?
We haven’t even said a few words!
Lin Ze became angrier the more he thought about it, and walked out angrily.
As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard gate, he heard Xie Nanyuan's faint voice behind him, "Deal with all these bodies."
Linze paused, hesitating between disobeying the order and leaving, or going back and being punched in the face.
Finally, he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes... stomped his feet hard... and turned back to move the body.
Linze was moving the corpse in the thatched hut. On the other side of the road to Beijing, Shen Qionghua, Lin Wanru and Shen Yi were sitting in the same carriage. The air was stagnant for a moment.
Lin Wanru's face was tense, and her usually gentle features now showed a bit of solemnity. She didn't say a word.
Shen Yi twisted his fingers guiltily, and looked at Shen Qionghua for help from time to time.
Shen Qionghua pursed her lips and secretly observed Lin Wanru's expression. After a long while, she finally spoke, "Mom, Ayi..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lin Wanru, "Hua Jie'er, you don't have to plead, let him speak for himself."
Then he looked at Shen Yi and said, "Tell me, when did you learn martial arts? Who was your teacher? How old are you? How dare you kill someone?"
