Finally he was willing to say it.

Wen Yan's smile slowed down, "Just tell me, mother is here for everything."

The story begins in the morning.

Wan Dongling was also very supportive of her grandfather's plan to open a school. She found everything very novel and followed him around to help.

This morning, when Wen Yanzhi went to order a book, the two scholars from the academy came over and had a very pleasant chat with Tao Yunsheng.

The two scholars were a tall and thin one named Gao Zhi, and a shorter but strong one named Liu Yundu.

But Wan Dongling always felt something was wrong.

While the two men were talking about going back to the academy to pack up their things, I followed them.

Unexpectedly, the man named Gao Zhi was so close to the dean of the academy. When he left, he told the dean that he would definitely live up to his trust.

As for the man named Liu Yundu, his behavior in the academy was not suspicious. But after arriving at Chunxing Village, he looked around, especially when he saw the Wen family. Although his eyes were secretive, Wan Dongling could definitely see the look of scrutiny.

Originally Wan Dongling wanted to tell her grandfather to be careful of these people, but her grandfather said she was too suspicious.

Although he agreed to pay close attention to the behavior of the two men, Wan Dongling knew that he did not take it to heart.

"So that's how it is. I understand." The two of them sat on Xiao Hei and walked back staggeringly.

Seeing that she agreed so readily, Wan Dongling couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mom, what do you think?"

Wen Yan thought about it and felt that the person in the academy was easy to deal with. He would just disturb them, prevent them from opening the school, or steal students.

But that Liu Yundu is very suspicious.

"Dabao, I'll leave the man named Gao Zhi to you. Follow Grandpa on weekdays. If you see anything suspicious about this man, come and tell me and I will find a way to deal with it."

"As for the other one, we can only wait and see."

Wen Yan had a guess in her mind, but it needed further confirmation. However, this matter was not suitable to be told to children, so she would tell them later.

Wan Dongling blinked her eyes. For some reason, even though her mother said she could only wait and see, she still felt safe. Her mother seemed to be omnipotent.

When I returned home, I found Qinghuai, who had been missing for almost half a month, was back.

When Wen Yan arrived home, the other party was teaching Wan Xiaqing how to use a sword. The sword was made of wood and was not sharp, but it was very powerful when used.

Wan Xuan and Wan He were sitting on the doorstep. Wan Xuan was reading a medical book. If she didn't understand something, she would ask Wan He. The twins seemed to have telepathy. Usually, Wan He would just make some gestures and Wan Xuan would understand what he meant.

The afterglow of sunset shines brightly and warmly in the yard of my home.

Wan Xuan was stunned. She waved at Wen Yan who had returned and ran over: "Mother! Mother, I have a question for you!"

Wen Yan picked her up and asked, "What's the problem?"

“Do you know how many tiles we have in our house?”

Wen Yan shook her head.

Wan Xuan: "That's 3,472 pieces in total!"

Wan Xuan was very proud, "Wan He told me!"

Wen Yan smiled and pinched her tender little face, "What else did Wan He tell you?"

Wan Xuan pointed to a wall on the south side. "He also said that the 32nd and 33rd tiles in the second row over there were moved."

Wen Yan looked towards the wall over there, and the smile on her face gradually froze.

Qing Huai also heard their conversation and exchanged a glance with Wen Yan. The former immediately went to the south wall and checked. Indeed, the tiles did show signs of having been moved.

"The marks are very recent, they must have been moved in the past two days." Qing Huai jumped off the wall and checked the other side of the wall, but found nothing. "It seems that the opponent's martial arts skills are very high. If the tile had not been in disrepair for a long time, I'm afraid he would not have touched it."

Wen Yan thought of the scholar Wan Dongling had mentioned. Could it be him? Was the other party's goal for Qing Huai?

She looked at Qing Huai with burning eyes: "I have been missing for half a month, how are things going?"

Qing Huai said vaguely: "Soon, there is no need to wait until spring, some things will have results."

Wen Yan felt relieved. She still believed in Qing Huai, but she had to prepare a foolproof plan for some things.

...

...

There is a very luxurious courtyard in Magistrate Ma's house, with three entrances and three exits, carved beams and painted rafters, which is specially provided for distinguished guests to stay.

The place has been under strict guard recently, and well-trained guards have surrounded the yard, not letting in even a fly.

At night, a guard came in with a secret letter in his hand: "Master, there is news from Chunxing Village that the person in the portrait has appeared."

The person living here was none other than Wang Jiu, who had appeared at Magistrate Ma’s birthday banquet.

Wang Jiu slowly drank a sip of tea, and his voice made it hard to tell whether he was happy or angry: "Chunxing Village?"

"Yes, by coincidence, it is the residence of the Wan family's expelled wife."

"Oh?" Wang Jiu raised the corners of his lips with interest, "This is quite interesting... I remember that there is a man named Wen Nanfeng in prison, the one that Madam Wan sent to death row."

"My master is wise."

Wang Jiu laughed softly, "Go and release Wen Nanfeng, and tell him to give him a chance to kill his enemy. Don't let me down."

"Wait until Wen Nanfeng arrives in Chunxing Village, and then you can estimate the time and ask his sister to go as well."

Wang Jiu smiled viciously. In the end, did the sister watch her brother kill people, or did she watch her brother being killed?

He glanced at the young lady in the yamen that day from afar. She didn't look like someone who would let Wen Nanfeng walk out of Chunxing Village alive.

This matter is much more interesting than killing Ye Qinghuai.
