There's something wrong with the general.

Chapter 27 Who is the henchman hiding in the dark?

The carriage traveled for about half an hour and finally arrived at the market town.

Xue Xuanyu lifted a corner of the car curtain and saw something: "Stop the car."

"Brother Xue, have you arrived at the place you want to go?"

Wen Yuxi saw a hint of anxiety in his eyes, and knocked on the carriage three times with his fingers. Then the carriage moved a few steps and stopped.

Li Wanning thought she had arrived and happily lifted the curtain to look. However, the unfamiliar scene before her made her wonder, "Brother, is this the place we are looking for?"

Xue Xuanyu nodded to Wen Yuxi and the others and said, "Thank you both for today. Junior Sister and I will now say goodbye."

He turned to Li Wanning and said, "Yes, Junior Sister, let's go down."

After saying this, he was the first to get off the carriage.

A trace of struggle flashed in Li Wanning's eyes. The moment she stood up, she suddenly threw something at Wen Yuxi, then got out of the car without stopping as if she was fleeing.

Wen Yuxi reached out to take it, it was a jade pendant.

Outside the carriage, a gust of wind blew, and a few whispers of conversation were heard.

"Junior sister, why is your face so red? You may be feeling unwell." Xue Xuanyu asked worriedly.

"No, brother, let's go."

Li Wanning's voice sounded guilty and a little flustered.

As the words fell, the footsteps gradually faded away.

"Miss Li treats Xier as her lover." Wen Qianyi spoke calmly, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Wen Yuxi: “….”

"Are you happy with her?" Wen Qianyi asked.

Wen Yuxi: “….”

"If you don't object, it means you like me. But I need to propose marriage to you on my behalf."

Wen Yuxi held her forehead in her hands. How did it come to the stage of discussing marriage?

It's just a one-time meeting, so there's no question of liking or disliking.

Besides, could it be that the woman gave him a gift because she liked him? He didn't think so. Maybe she just wanted to thank him for giving her a ride.

"Brother, please don't tease me. Miss Li gave me this jade pendant because she was afraid that I wouldn't be able to find her in the future. Besides, I only consider her a friend. Miss Li is straightforward and natural, and being with her really makes people relax."

Wen Yuxi laughed back and said, "Brother, if you have the time, you might as well find me a sister-in-law."

Wen Qianyi looked at him quietly and said to the coachman outside the carriage, "Let's go."

"Yes, General."

The carriage moved slowly forward, and a mysterious silence prevailed inside.

Wen Yuxi thought to himself, was there something wrong with what he had just said? Why did it feel like his brother was suddenly unhappy?

Thinking back to when I mentioned to him before that I wanted him to find a sister-in-law for me, he always ignored it.

Is there something hidden?

Have you ever been hurt in the past?

But I haven't heard of any love experiences of his brother.

Wen Yuxi thought that when he had the chance, he would ask Tiehan. He had followed Wen Qianyi for so many years, he must know something.

After the car crossed the street and there were fewer pedestrians, it gradually accelerated.

After walking for a while, the carriage finally stopped.

"General, Lord, we're here."

Wen Yuxi and Wen Qianyi got off the carriage. There were a lot of people at the moment, but no one was going up the mountain. Instead, most of them were going down the mountain.

Wen Yuxi didn't think much about it. At this point, if he had gone up the mountain early, he should have been down by then.

Although it is autumn, the sun is still shining brightly, so we might as well find a place to rest.

There were several inns and teahouses at the foot of the mountain. Wen Yuxi pulled Wen Qianyi straight towards an inn.

"Boss, give me two rooms." Wen Yuxi put the silver on the table.

The innkeeper looked up and said, "There is one room left. Would you two like to squeeze in or..."

He looked them up and down and advised, "There are a lot of guests these days. Sir, don't ask, the other houses are also full."

Wen Yuxi turned around and pulled Wen Qianyi aside: "Brother, there is only one room left, how about we share one?"

Wen Qianyi's eyes showed a hint of doubt: "Aren't we going up the mountain? Why do we want to stay here?"

Wen Yuxi smiled cunningly and said, "Of course I'm going to trick you out and have some fun here."

It’s such a long journey that my butt is almost cracked. Let’s have a good rest today. Tomorrow we can climb to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise and then go to Ci’en Temple to pay our respects. Wouldn’t that be wonderful!

Back then, his roommate and his best friend went on a trip to Lhasa and stayed there for nearly a week before returning.

In ancient times, the mountains were high and the waters were far away, so if you finally came out, you naturally wanted to have fun.

Wen Yuxi thought so in his heart, but a trace of worry appeared on his face: "Brother, I am a little tired today, and I am not feeling well. How about we stay here for one night and go up the mountain tomorrow?"

Wen Qianyi looked at him deeply. Wen Yuxi felt guilty as if he had been seen through, but he still held on to save face. After a moment, he said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

A smile instantly broke out on Wen Yuxi's face. He paid the bill very readily, took the doorplate, carried his luggage and went upstairs.

After walking a few steps, he suddenly turned his head and said, "Brother, hurry up."

"it is good."

Wen Qianyi glanced at the third floor, his eyes flashed, and then he followed Wen Yuxi to the second floor.

Wen Yuxi walked in, put his luggage on the table, and looked around casually. The room was not big and simply furnished. There was a window facing south, and he could see everything from the window.

He had just sat down at the table, picked up the kettle and poured a glass of water. He took a sip when he suddenly heard a noise outside.

With nothing to do, he walked out of the room and stood at the stairs looking down.

I saw people walking into the restaurant one after another.

It’s really strange, why are there so many people coming back at this time, they look like they just came down from the mountain.

They all had their heads hung down, looking dejected.

Hey, isn't this the person who just went up the mountain when the two of them got off the car? He came down in just a few minutes?

Wen Yuxi watched the people come in one after another and take their seats in the restaurant.

"We have just arrived and we have to go back. We can't go back just because a distinguished guest has come to the temple. That's too unreasonable."

The man walking in front sat down indignantly, drank a cup of tea and then said angrily.

The person next to him looked timid and hurriedly told him to shut up: "Keep your voice down. That noble is either the Empress Dowager or the current Emperor. If you talk about the palace without permission, watch out for your head."

The man was nonchalant. "What are you afraid of? I wasn't wrong in the first place. Alas, I was planning to ask for a good fortune at the temple, but this time it's impossible. The exam is in two days, so I have to hurry back."

Wen Yuxi raised his eyebrows when he heard this. It turned out that he was a scholar taking part in the autumn examination.

Tsk, instead of reviewing your lessons at home before the exam, you come here to pray to gods and Buddha. Isn't that putting the cart before the horse? It's a pity that the person involved can't see through it.

He couldn't help but smile slightly. It was indeed like this no matter in ancient times or modern times. In modern times, parents would worship Buddha, burn incense, ask for divination and fortune-telling before their children took exams. Although it made them feel at ease, it still depended on the candidates themselves in the end.

Those people had gloomy faces and asked the waiter to bring the dishes. It seemed that they would not stay long.

From what they said, a distinguished person had come to the temple, and for safety or some other reason, Ci'en Temple was now sealed and no outsiders were allowed to go in.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud. It seemed that he and his brother would have to stay here for a few more days.

Just as he was lost in thought, he suddenly felt someone looking at him.

Wen Yuxi frowned and glanced down.

Everyone was eating or talking, and no one noticed him.

who can that be?

For some unknown reason, Wen Yuxi suddenly looked up and saw that there was no one in the corridor on the third floor opposite, but the door of the room opposite was shaking and closed.

So it was there. Was it unintentional or intentional? For the safety of both of us, we should be more careful.
