Chapter 111 Goodbye Liu Anyang
I set off early in the morning, and in the afternoon, Chen Wanxin had already arrived at the small road leading to the countryside.
She looked at the fields outside the window and remembered every bit of her life here, including being framed by Ergou and meeting Liu Fanchen in the mountain temple. Scenes all appeared in her mind.
The carriage came to the entrance of the small courtyard where Chen Wanxin lived. She walked off the carriage and looked at the familiar courtyard. This was the place where she had lived for more than ten years. All the humiliation began here, and this was also the second starting point in her life.
"Miss, are we going in? Or, let's change our residence?" Xia Tian looked at Wan Xin, who was dazed at the gate of the yard, and thought the lady remembered the unhappiness here at the beginning.
Wanxin stepped into the yard. Although there had been no one living here for several months, Wanxin had been asking for the yard to be cleaned regularly, so everything still looked so neat. When they walked into the house, all the decorations were still the same as they had walked at the beginning. Wanxin felt very moved. Xia Tian was depressed by the side. She didn't like the countryside. She didn't understand why the lady would come back after finally leaving this place of trouble.
The master and servant took a break, and Wan Xin took out the embroidery pieces he brought this time, "I'm going to Master Liu's house now and meet the fifth concubine. You're waiting for me here."
"Miss, I'll go with you." Xia Tian was afraid that the lady would encounter any accidents on the road, so he insisted on accompanying her.
Wan Xin shook her head and frowned at Xia Tian. She found that Xia Tian had more and more ideas, and the first thing she decided to go home was to train her. Xia Tian saw that the lady was unhappy, so she quickly closed her mouth and stopped talking.
Wan Xin came to the door of Landlord Liu's house alone. The gate was usually guarded by servants. Now the door is cold and there were endless guests. Because of Landlord Liu's kidnapped, he had long disappeared, for fear that Landlord Liu's troubles would cause him.
Wan Xin opened the door of Landlord Liu, and the lonely yard contrasted with the hustle and bustle of the past. She came to Liu Anyang's door with ease and raised her hand to knock on the door. A female voice came from inside, "Who?"
"It's me, Sister Liu."
Before he finished speaking, the door opened. Liu Anyang couldn't believe his eyes and ears, and looked at the beautiful girl who was vivid in front of him.
"Wanxin, why are you here?"
Chen Wanxin smiled and held up his cloth bag with both hands, "Send clothes to Sister Liu. Sister Liu is my old customer. Of course, I will send this embroidery in person to express my gratitude for Sister Liu's patronage."
Liu Anyang immediately understood Chen Wanxin's meaning, "I thought it would take a few days before this embroidery would be completed. I never thought you would be here today. Come in quickly."
"Sister Liu, please see if you are satisfied. If you are not satisfied, I have already asked my mother for leave and amend it for you. Let's go home." Chen Wanxin said as she walked into Liu Anyang's house. She said this because she was afraid that there would be ears in the wall. Now the enemy is in the dark and they are in the light, so everything must be guarded against.
After Liu Anyang closed the door, he looked at Chen Wanxin excitedly, "You are actually here, I really didn't expect it."
Wan Xin looked at Liu Anyang's expression and knew that she really didn't know about her arrival. She looked around and said in her lips, "Is this safe?"
Liu Anyang nodded, "I have driven all the maids away, just because I am afraid that I will not know their background. The other concubines only think that I am a young lady. Now that the family is in chaos, no one will pay attention to me. Let me go."
Wan Xin had long discovered why there was no trace of servants in Liu Anyang. He never thought that it was Liu Anyang who had sent them all. "I came this time, but it was actually entrusted by Manager Meng. I heard that Landlord Liu disappeared?"
When Liu Anyang heard Wan Xin mention Landlord Liu, his face was filled with sorrow and his face was tired, "Yes, it has been six days since today, and the government has nowhere to go. This person has disappeared out of thin air."
"Tell me, is there anything strange on the day when Landlord Liu disappeared? What happened that day?" Chen Wanxin wanted to know the specific process of Landlord Liu's kidnapping to see if he could find some clues from it.
Liu Anyang carefully recalled, "That day, he went out of the house as usual. I heard that he was going to the next village to collect debts. He would go to different places to collect debts and interest several days a month. When he went there, he brought a few servants with him. According to the next village, Landlord Liu had already received the debt and was captured on the way back."
"That should not be done by the people who owe money." Chen Wanxin speculated that since Landlord Liu had received the money, the person who owe him money should not be committing murder on him unless he could not exchange it for money.
Liu Anyang nodded, "The government has verified this with all the people in the next village who have a creditor relationship with Landlord Liu one by one. It is indeed not their work."
"You just said that the servants, where are those servants? Have anyone run back?" Chen Wanxin suddenly remembered the existence that should be verified.
Liu Anyang paused for a moment and said sadly, "All servants died, without exception..."
"What?" Chen Wanxin couldn't help but gasp, "All of them are dead?" It seems that it is impossible to find a witness. Chen Wanxin re-examined the disappearance of Landlord Liu. It seems that the other party's target is Landlord Liu, and he is cruel and ruthless. All irrelevant people are silenced to prevent future troubles. In this way, Landlord Liu is also in danger.
"Yes, and they were all killed by one knife. The official's mission said that the people who abducted Landlord Liu were by no means good, and they were all martial arts masters."
"Sister Liu, I have something to ask you, you must tell me the truth." The girlish look on Chen Wanxin's face dissipated, and the expression that was supposed to be a mature woman in front of Liu Anyang was completely the expression that a mature woman should have.
Liu Anyang was stunned when he saw Chen Wanxin's expression for the first time. She felt the strength of Chen Wanxin's aura and nodded involuntarily at her.
"You get married to Landlord Liu, how much does he know about you." Speaking of this, Chen Wanxin comforted Liu Anyang and said, "Shopkeeper Meng has told me about you. I know you have told me some lies before. Now I sincerely come to help you. I hope you don't say anything to me again," he said.
"He knew nothing. He thought I was sold here by abducted child. When he saw that I was beautiful, he stayed to be his concubine. Speaking of this, I should thank him, otherwise I would not know what situation I was in." No matter what, Landlord Liu saved Liu Anyang, and she didn't want any unexpected results in Landlord Liu's life.
Chen Wanxin heard Liu Anyang say that Landlord Liu knew nothing, and nodded with peace of mind, "I think the goal of this incident is you and Yujue. Since Landlord Liu doesn't know about you, he is not afraid that they will find anything from him. If they want to get the answer they want, Landlord Liu is afraid that there will be more disasters."
Chen Wanxin continued without waiting for Liu Anyang to react, "The matter of Yu Jue is more complicated than I thought. Since I have been involved in this matter, I will definitely be unable to get rid of this incident." After saying that, Chen Wanxin looked at Liu Anyang with some blame in his eyes. Liu Anyang lowered his head embarrassedly. She knew that she was involved in the plan and made Chen Wanxin passively get involved in this matter.
Chen Wanxin continued to smile bitterly, "Since we are already in the game, we are on the same boat. As far as I know, the second prince is also looking for the whereabouts of this jade pendant. I am afraid that more than the second prince, all the princes, including the prince, are looking for the jade pendant. Do you know how dangerous your situation is now?"
Liu Anyang nodded, "This is also the reason why I have been hiding here and not returning to the capital. I think no one will doubt the fifth concubine of a landlord."
When Chen Wanxin heard this, thinking about the scene he had seen before, he couldn't help but ask, "Since you are the fifth concubine of Landlord Liu, why haven't you fulfilled your family yet?"
When Liu Anyang heard Chen Wanxin's words, he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. First, she didn't expect that Chen Wanxin would actually know this secret, even Manager Meng didn't know about this matter; second, how could she, an unmarried woman, tell the matter directly about the bedside?
Chen Wanxin saw that Liu Anyang did not speak or urged her. He reached out and grabbed her arm, lifted her sleeves, revealing her white and slender arms until a red gongshen sand came into view.
Liu Anyang hurriedly put down his sleeve, "When did you know?"
"I knew it before I left here for the first time. As far as I know, Landlord Liu is not a good person, how can you protect your perfect body? Still living here as the fifth concubine for so long?"
It was Liu Anyang's turn to smile bitterly, "It's not that I protect my body, but that he knew that I, Yu Du, was afraid that I would pass the toxins to him. Also, I was able to read. After reading for a few years, I would give some ideas about his business. Landlord Liu is a man who doesn't know big words. With a military advisor like me, he wouldn't take other things seriously. After all, he has four concubines and dozens of maids in the same house."
Chen Wanxin suddenly realized that he was protecting himself with talent. "Do you have some eyes and eyes, who is the one who kidnapped Landlord Liu?"
Liu Anyang shook his head, "I don't know. I thought about it for a long time but I don't know who would do this. Could it be the second prince?"
Chen Wanxin denied it firmly, how could the second prince tell Liu Anyang one by one how to see the handkerchief pattern? "The second prince thought my cousin knew the whereabouts of Yu Jue, and he was scheduled to invite her to a party after the Qiu Examination. If it were the second prince, he would not do anything more."
After hearing this, Liu Anyang also felt that what Wan Xin said made sense, "Who can it be?"
Both of them were in silent thinking. After a moment, Chen Wanxin suddenly remembered someone and looked up and asked, "Do you know Liu Fanchen?"
When Liu Anyang heard this name, he searched in his mind for a long time, shook his head, "I have never heard of this name, I think I don't know him. What's wrong with this person?"
"He also asked me about the pattern. Since you don't know me, maybe I'm worried. It seems that there are many more people looking for jade pendants than you and I think." Chen Wanxin carefully observed Liu Anyang's expression while speaking, and found that she was helpless. It seems that Liu Anyang had never heard of Liu Fanchen's name.
After hearing this, Liu Anyang became more and more uneasy. When she was abducted by human traffickers in the body, she had never been so uneasy. She even regretted that she had not ruined the Jade Jue as soon as possible, regardless of her secrets or secrets. If her life cannot be saved, everything will be a cloud.
"Sister Liu, have you figured out what to do next?" Chen Wanxin asked with concern. She felt that Liu Anyang was not safe here, but now she left rashly and even self-destructed her identity. Whether she went or stayed, she had to rely on Liu Anyang's wishes.
Liu Anyang shook his head and smiled bitterly, his eyes full of fatigue, "Wanxin, I'm going to tell you, since Landlord Liu was abducted, I haven't slept well for a night. Now I know the danger." She thought for a while, closed her eyes, and when she opened it again, a firm will appeared in her eyes. Chen Wanxin knew that Liu Anyang had already figured out what to do.
"I'm going to stay here."
"Sister Liu, are you sure? Now that Landlord Liu's life and death are uncertain, you are the only person around him with unknown origin, and he also knows that you are poisonous, so he is very likely to reveal all this to the other party. And the other party's behavior is so cruel and ruthless that he will not let go of any clues. Wouldn't you put yourself in a dangerous situation at that time?" Chen Wanxin said exactly what Liu Anyang was thinking. How could she not understand the danger that might happen if she stayed?
"If I leave at this moment, maybe the men who kidnapped Landlord Liu were staring at me in the dark. If I disappeared so easily, wouldn't I fall into their trap?" Liu Anyang went there now, nor would he stay. If he left, it would also put Manager Meng in danger. The power that Manager Meng had accumulated for so many years might be disintegrated by the other party.
Chen Wanxin actually thought that Liu Anyang's stay was a way to take the minority of two harms. "Sister Liu, do you have anything to tell me to sell to Manager Meng."
"You told him that you must keep your troops now and don't act according to the plan. If I go back to Beijing and have peace with him, you must wait for my order before taking action." Liu Anyang entrusts his instructions to Chen Wanxin word by word.
After listening to this, Chen Wanxin said, "Sister Liu, you must be more careful when you stay here. Although I can come here to meet you this time, my current identity is not convenient for me to leave Beijing often."
"I'm already very moved when you can come once. I know how much risk you are taking to come here. Wanxin, I was still suspicious of you before, and it was my sister's fault." Even when the blood relationship of the most close relatives is at risk, they will protect their personal safety first. Chen Wanxin is neither related nor old, and she also knows that Chen Wanxin has a big secret in her heart, and she has very important things waiting for her to do.
Liu Anyang never asked why Chen Wanxin is mature and steady that is inconsistent with her peers. Sometimes her thinking is even more acute and meticulous. Liu Anyang knows that she is also a person full of secrets, so how can she ask Wanxin for this?
Liu Anyang took out a box from the secret compartment inside the room and opened the lock on it. There was a cloth bag inside, which contained the jade pendant that everyone wanted to grab. The small jade pendant was held in the palm of his hand by Liu Anyang. Her fingers slowly brushed through the gully that had been brushed countless times. She looked at the jade pendant in her hand with her eyes focused on it, and the broken eyes seemed to be the last time she looked at it.
Chen Wanxin looked at Liu Anyang with her head tilted, wondering why she showed a farewell feeling?
