Chapter 161 (1/2)

Yu Qingyao was surprised to see him do these things. It seemed that Xiao Wenxin had confirmed that King Kang did it.

Xiao Wenxin asked, ”where are they?”

Yu Qingyao asked, ”who?”

”They are in the East!” said Xiao Wenxin. He felt that if the murderer behind the scenes was really king Kang, there was no reason to kill only himself and Wang Boheng, but let the other four people go.

Yu Qingyao said knowingly, ”Gao Jian and Xi Zhen have gone back. Duanmu hasn't been here these days, but only once in the East.”

Xiao Wenxin gnashed his teeth and said, ”brother Gao and brother Xi must have been forced away by King Kang, and Duanmu was too scared to come. Dongfang Mu is from Mingzhe sect, and King Kang is also from Mingzhe sect, so he didn't attack Dongfang.”

After listening to this, Yu Qingyao felt that things were getting more and more true. Even she believed that King Kang was the real murderer behind the scenes.

Xiao Wenxin anxiously waited for the arrival of reinforcements. It was late at night, and the people he waited for never came.

Xiao Wenxin became more and more nervous. He said to Yu Qingyao, ”Qingyao, I can't wait. I have to go.”

Yu Qingyao said, ”I'll send you!”

Xiao Wenxin said, ”Qing Yao, I don't think it's safe for you to live here. Why don't you come with me? I can protect you when I get to Hou's house.”

Yu Qingyao hesitated. Of course, it's safer to get to the Hou's house, but it's hard to think of it again as soon as she enters the Hou's door as deep as the sea.

She didn't have a name or share. She followed him into the Marquis house at night and lived down. What would others think of her?

A proper night running concubine! The white lotus has a pure and beautiful reputation. It's lost all night!

She shook her head and said, ”no, I can protect myself. Brother Xiao, be careful on your way!”

Xiao Wenxin saw that she refused to go with her, so she had to leave alone.

Early the next morning, Yu Qingyao was having breakfast when a team of constables broke in.

Yu Qingyao was surprised and asked, ”who are you and why did you break into my house?”

A middle-aged man in Python robes rushed to her and asked, ”are you Yu Qingyao?”

Yu Qingyao nodded and asked, ”what's the matter?”

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, ”I'm Wenzhong Hou, the father of Xiao Wenxin.”

Yu Qingyao quickly saluted and said, ”see Marquis Xiao!”

”Don't be polite. Let me ask you, did Wen Xin come to you last night?”

Yu Qingyao said in amazement, ”yes, what? Has something happened to childe Xiao?”

Lord Xiao shed tears in his eyes and said, ”last night, he was assassinated in Xingping street.”

Yu Qingyao was surprised. Two tears came out of her eyes and choked: ”how could this happen?”

When Lord Xiao saw her sad and weeping, he was a little calm. It's worth my son's love for her.

He asked, ”what did he tell you last night?”

He knew that his son had been trying to find out who assassinated him during Qiushou.

Marquis Xiao also tried to trace it down, but he found that after the emperor pressed it down, he was afraid. He stopped checking it and asked his son not to check it again. Xiao Wenxin just didn't listen and kept checking in private.

Now that his son is dead, Lord Xiao can't help it anymore. His son's death is not clear. He always needs to know who the murderer is.

Yu Qingyao glanced around. Lord Xiao understood and waved his hand, driving out both the left and right.

Yu Qingyao told Lord Xiao about Xiao Wenxin's analysis last night.
