Chapter 210 Shared Secrets
There were rustling insects in the garden, the fragrance of the night permeated the air, and the moonlight wove a soft net, covering all the scenery inside, including the two people in front and behind.

Zhao Huiwei was behind him, stepping on his shadow, one step at a time...

The shadow stopped, and so did she.

The shadows of the trees were mottled, hitting his body like a layer of brilliance, half of which was bright, while the other side was dark.

"Yan Yan."

"Ah?" Zhao Huiwei looked up, and saw him looking up at the bright moon.

"Do you believe in karma?"

"There must be. Those who do bad things will be punished."

She definitely replied that the gods in the sky will bless good people.

He snorted softly: "Will there really be retribution?"

Zhao Huiwei immediately looked at him with concern, Shen Mingnan couldn't stand her eyes, as if he was miserable.

So he sneered: "Put away your pitiful little eyes, I'm not pitiful enough to need your comfort."

She scratched her head, listening inside just now, it was really miserable.

"Young master, you are so young, how did you come here in ten years?" She couldn't help asking.

Shen Mingnan was stunned for a moment, he seldom recalled the events of his childhood, those that he had deliberately forgotten were buried deep in his mind.

"Want to know?"

She nodded her head.

Shen Mingnan smiled: "There is a price to be paid for knowing my secret."

???

What's the price?
Zhao Huiwei said baa, she didn't listen.

But Shen Mingnan didn't let her go: "When I was young, I lived with my mother."

Zhao Huiwei's eyes were wide open, Shen Mingnan actually stayed with his own mother when he was a child!
"What about your mother?"

"He died eight years ago." Shen Mingnan immediately laughed, "So I went back to the Duke's Mansion to recognize my relatives."

its not right!
Why didn't they come to Shen Guogong to kiss him when they were alive?

Seeming to see her doubts, Shen Mingnan continued: "Gongyi's family was originally the residence of Prince An, and they accompanied the late emperor to lay down this splendid country, and my grandfather was even more like a brother to the late emperor."

"Same as the Huainan Palace, it is Dayan's only king with a different surname."

"Until 19 years ago, with a treasonous edict, the whole family of Gongyi's family was copied and beheaded. I heard that the imperial guards did not give Gongyi's family a chance to respond, and all of them were shot and killed in Prince An's mansion."

"That day, half the sky was stained red with blood, and one hundred and eight members of Gongyi's family died under the rain of arrows."

He shook his head while talking: "The blood soaked into the green bricks of Prince An's mansion, and the sin that cannot be washed away by rain was branded on it."

His eyes slightly curved: "If you go to Prince An's Mansion now, the floor tiles are still dark red."

Zhao Huiwei instantly felt horrified, this is too scary, the brothers who accompanied the late emperor through life and death, were directly wiped out by the late emperor.

She swallowed: "Then... did the Gongyi family rebel?"

Shen Mingnan snorted, mockingly flashed across his eyes: "Of course not. After the family of Gongyi was wiped out, the first emperor followed him to immortality. It took three years for His Majesty to wash away Gongyi after he ascended the throne. family's crime of treason."

Seeing him like this, Zhao Huiwei really looked like a storyteller, his emotions didn't fluctuate, as if he was just a spectator.

"Young master... how do you know such details?"

Yes, he himself felt that it was detailed, because the story had been woven into his bones and blood.

He seemed to hear the hysterical female voice again: "Mingnan, you must avenge the Gongyi family, and send all those who killed the Gongyi family to hell."

"I want them to have a terrible death, and I want them to be ashes. Otherwise, how can I be worthy of the loyalty of Gongyi's family!"

Zhao Huiwei pondered, looked at his calm face, and asked: "My lord, are you going to take revenge?"

After all, his maternal ancestor's family died so tragically.

Shen Mingnan returned to his senses, and chuckled lightly: "Idiot, who do I report to?"

When Zhao Huiwei thought about it, it was true that the executioner of the late emperor had already gone west, so he couldn't dig the grave and flog the corpse, right?

Shen Mingnan's eyes reflected the bright moon: "Now Dayan, the world is peaceful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe."

"So why destroy this peace again?"

"When wars broke out everywhere, the people were displaced and homeless. Isn't it just another purgatory on earth."

Seeing that the little girl was still staring at him blankly, Shen Mingnan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Zhao Yanyan, you have shared my secret."

Zhao Huiwei immediately covered her ears: "I didn't want to hear it!"

His black eyes were instantly cold: "Do you know the fate of betraying me?"

Zhao Huiwei immediately thought of the back mountain of his family, which was like a burial ground, with pits one by one, just like growing radishes.

So she put on a serious face, and swore with three fingers pointing to the sky: "Don't worry, young master, I will never betray you, I swear!"

Seeing her serious face, Shen Mingnan couldn't help laughing, she is really a deceitful little girl.

What he said was no secret, no one in Beijing knew that because of the late emperor's suspicion, he "killed" one hundred and eight members of Gongyi's family by mistake.

But it's not bad to use it to deceive the little girl, he continued to walk towards Jiangyun Pavilion in a good mood, and Zhao Huiwei followed suit.

……

The next day, set up area.

The restless Zhao Huiwei ran out again, at the moment she was in a jewelry shop, she was here to pick gems this time, she wanted to weave a webbing for Shen Mingnan, with gems strung on the webbing to make it more majestic .

Yingluo was on the other side giving her advice.

There is a tray in the second hand of the shop, which is filled with colorful glazed stones. These special stones are all transported from Xirong Kingdom.

Zhao Huiwei reached out to pick up a light green glazed stone. Under the refraction of the light, the green color of this stone was much deeper.

The waiter immediately put on a smile on his face: "The girl has good eyesight, and she picked up the treasure of the store, the blue-eyed cat stone."

Zhao Huiwei expressed doubts, can this be called the treasure of the town store?
It was better for her to throw a stone at random than this in modern times, she felt that the waiter in the shop was fooling her.

The smile on her face faded a lot: "Is this the treasure of the store? Then there is nothing to see in your store."

After saying that, she was ready to take Yingluo and leave.

The waiter at the shop looked at it and saw that he looked like a rich man. He just found the cheapest gemstones to recharge. Anyway, no one would look at these things.

Unexpectedly, he met someone who knew the goods, and he hurriedly persuaded him to stay: "Girl stay, I just picked up the wrong one, I will go and get you another batch."

Only then did Zhao Huiwei stop in her tracks, and after a while, the waiter came out with another tray.

A crimson gemstone inside instantly caught her attention. The gemstone is very round, and it is still slightly cool in the hand, and there is this crimson halo under the refraction of the sun.

Zhao Huiwei immediately asked, "How do you sell this gem?"

The waiter compared five fingers.

Yingluo replied, "50 taels?"

The shop waiter shook his head: "500 taels."

"Damn, why don't you go grab the money, a piece of broken stone is so expensive!" Yingluo said cursingly.

The scarlet ruby ​​quickly became slightly warm in Zhao Huiwei's hands. Wearing this kind of stone all year round can calm one's mind, although the effect is minimal.

In the end, the two sides reached a consensus at 350 taels.

Ying Luo, a small bargaining expert, happily carried the packed box and followed behind Zhao Huiwei.

As soon as Zhao Huiwei stepped out of the shop, a panicked figure bumped into her...
