Chapter 20
Between life and death, it is nothing but self-knowledge.When people are gone, what future generations can do is to mourn.

Wei Xizhao felt sad and lost his interest, so he ordered Shen Xing and the housekeeper to check the records in the booklet and the items in the box, and then he and Wei Xizhao went out for a walk among the green mountains and green waters, and did not return until noon.

While eating, Wei Xilong counted the days, "Father will get married in three days."

Wei Xizhao thought this was funny, "Yes, not everyone has the opportunity to witness his father marrying a wife."

"The chief soldier of Longcheng married the governor's daughter." Wei Xilong approached Wei Xizhao, "Father's marriage, the continuation is false, is it true for the future?"

It is commonplace in the family of officials to use marriage to help their future.Reincarnated as a human being, I have already seen it.Wei Xizhao's tone was light: "Father was nailed to Longcheng, and he has been the commander-in-chief for too long. Frustration is inevitable, and it is natural to want to be promoted."

"Who can blame this? If he hadn't been in contact with the families of officials who were imprisoned and took in those young masters with different surnames, he would have already entered Beijing to hold important positions." Wei Xilong smiled slyly, " What he did is not entirely a bad thing." Without the "he" of her father who took her in, how could she have the love she has today.

Wei Xizhao said narrowly: "Could it be that father unintentionally took advantage of you again." Immediately, his smile became mischievous, "Tell me quickly, who is that person?"

"It's just a person." Wei Xiyun put down his chopsticks and ran away.

In the evening, after changing to a strange room and bed, Wei Xizhao wasn't used to it, and couldn't sleep anymore, and regretted not letting Wei Xiliu live with him, so there would be someone to talk to.

After tossing and turning for a long time, her eyes fell on the window.

The moon moves the shadow of the flowers, and the gauze curtain dances lightly.

It is the time when the fragrance and dew are heavy.

There seemed to be a figure flashing past the window.

Wei Xizhao opened his eyes wide, suspicious that it was an illusion, but also afraid that it was the truth, so he slowly sat up.

A moment later, a figure leaped into the room lightly.

The speed was too fast, if it wasn't for the up and down of the window screen, Wei Xizhao still couldn't be sure.Terrified, she went down to the ground barefoot and wanted to call someone, but the figure had already come behind her and covered her mouth.

"Don't make a sound. Help me avoid being chased. Otherwise, you will be buried with me." The voice was very low, but it was deep and mellow.

Chased down and buried with him.Wei Xizhao was astonished.Sleeping can cause disasters, what kind of bad luck is this?Raising his hand and struggling, he was surprised to find that the man's arm was wet.Only then did he realize that what lingered in his nose was no longer the scent of flowers, but the smell of blood.

"Answer or not?" The man hugged her tightly, and his voice rang out above her head again.

Before the words fell, a low and noisy voice came from the courtyard: "It should be hiding here."

"Search!"

The hall door was kicked open vigorously.

Then came Shen Xing's slightly flustered voice: "Who are you? How dare you break into Miss's residence?"

Someone replied: "I was ordered to search for the suspect!"

"You can't go in, this is my lady's boudoir!" Shen Xing's footsteps stopped at the door, and his voice had regained his composure, a little more sharply.

Wei Xizhao opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound, so he went to break the man's hand again.It suddenly occurred to him that the man couldn't tell whether he wanted to help him or call for help, so he nodded vigorously again.

The man raised his other hand, slid across her neck, touched the red silk thread, and when he lowered it and raised it again, there was already a cold dagger.

Grabbing the silk thread with one hand and cutting it off with a dagger with the other, he held her personal jade pendant in his hand and whispered in her ear: "I offended you. If you made a mistake, you still have to pay for it."

It's thoughtful!Wei Xizhao gritted his teeth angrily.Now is not the time to argue with him, if you hesitate any longer, you will really ruin everything because of this unknown person.

After calming down, Wei Xizhao asked calmly, "Shen Xing, what's the noise?"

Shen Xing responded at the door: "Miss, they forced their way in, saying they wanted to search for some suspect."

Someone said coldly: "Which family does your lady belong to? Get out of the way! I've delayed important matters, so watch your heads!"

"Who are you ordered by?" Wei Xizhao said calmly, "If you have a big reason, are you able to break into the official's residence without authorization?"

The searcher seemed to have lost his patience, and his voice was impatient: "We are arresting the important criminals under the order of Li, the vice commander-in-chief! Even if you offend, you can be forgiven. Get out of the way!" Shen Xing.

"Who dares to act recklessly!"

The cool and watery voice suddenly turned cold, and the calm and cold aura made the people who wanted to rush in stagnate.

"This place is the other courtyard of Lord Chief Guard of Longcheng, and you are not allowed to be presumptuous!" Wei Xizhao approached the screen at the door, "If you dare to break in at this time, I will definitely report to my father in the future, and punish you for misconduct and humiliation. My innocent mortal sin!"

"Is this Lord Wei's other courtyard?"

"How can this be good?"

Several people outside were discussing in low voices.

Wei Xizhao said again: "Three days later, the governor's daughter is going to marry into the Wei Mansion. Is the deputy chief soldier going to force her into my boudoir as a congratulatory gift? If you insist on going your own way, you will think that my father is hiding a crime." There was a slight pause in his voice, and he smiled coldly, "This crime is really serious, anyone will pursue it to the end, right?"

The people outside fell silent.

After a while, someone said: "Miss disturbing, this subordinate is guilty." Then he ordered others, "You stay here, I will go back and ask for instructions."

The chaotic footsteps went out, but stopped when they reached the courtyard.

"Miss..." Shen Xing wanted to enter the door.

Wei Xizhao said slowly: "Shen Xing, I'm tired, I have something to say tomorrow."

The young lady's voice was really exhausted, and Shen Xing stepped back in response.

Wei Xizhao exhaled lightly, raised his hand to stroke his forehead, and found that his head was covered with cold sweat.

Turning around, I found that the culprit who caused all this was sitting safely on the bed.

But it was temporarily cleansed, and the result is still unclear.Thinking of this, Wei Xizhao's heartstrings became tense again, and he sat on the chair by the window, sometimes glanced at the bed, and sometimes glanced at the window screen.
