Chapter 924 Suspicion (1/2)

The letter was not long. Yun Shang soon finished it. Then she read it again with a deep look in her eyes.

In the letter, Xia Huanyu repeatedly asked Liu Yinfeng not to tell Xia Houjing about that thing. And he said that he only wanted to keep what happened in that year a secret forever and asked Liu Yinfeng not to reveal it unless he had no other choice. Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with as so many people involved. Besides, Xia Huanyu mentioned in the letter that he had Luo Qingyan's promise that he wouldn't kill Xia Houjing under any circumstance.

After reading it, Yun Shang was totally confused.

She had three doubts in her mind. First, what was the thing that Xia Huanyu warned Liu Yinfeng not to tell Xia Houjing? Second, what was the secret that Xia Huanyuan tried so hard to hide it? Third, why did Xia Huanyu tell Liu Yinfeng about that he had asked Luo Qingyan not to hurt Xia Houjing?

Yun Shang frowned. She remembered that Liu Yinfeng also begged Luo Qingyan and her to spare Xia Houjing's life.

She could understand why Xia Huanyu and Liu Yinfeng wanted to keep Xia Houjing alive. For Xia Huanyu, Xia Houjing was his favorite son. For Liu Yinfeng, Xia Houjing was the only child of Lady Liu.

However, after reading the letter, she felt that there seemed to be some hidden secret in it. A question again came into Yun Shang's mind. What was the relationship between Xia Huanyu and Liu Yinfeng? In the court of theState of Xia, Liu Yinfeng was undoubtedly a very special existence. Liu Yinfeng didn't have an official position, but was highly valued by Xia Huanyu.

At first, when she heard that Liu Yinfeng was hailed as a child prodigy when he was very young and that he once had affection for Lady Liu, she thought that it was because Xia Huanyu appreciated Liu Yinfeng's talent, and because he felt sorry for Lady Liu, he adopted an accommodating attitude towards Liu Yinfeng's choice. Liu Yinfeng was indifferent to fame and fortune and didn't want to be an official, so Xia Huanyu didn't force him.

But now, Yun Shang felt that this reason seemed too farfetched...

All kinds of questions flooded her mind. Yun Shang felt that the State of Xia was full of secrets. However, the top priority was to find out one thing, that was the reason why there had been no news of Liu Yinfeng for so long. Was it because Liu Yinfeng was trapped or because he had betrayed them? Or, Liu Yinfeng just pretended to join into their camp at the very first beginning?

Yun Shang's heart seemed to be gripped. She bit her lips and closed her eyes to calm herself down.

No, no matter what, she had to discuss it with Luo Qingyan. If Liu Yinfeng might have betrayed them, they had to think of another way to prevent the situation from getting worse. There must be something that Xia Huanyu had hidden from them, and it might be of great importance.
