Lu Yilan was quite satisfied with her expression of having something to complain about but unable to express it, and he immediately felt much better.

"Get ready. We'll be leaving in two days... Oh, by the way, finish reading these files today before leaving."

After saying this, he waved his hand, his red robe swaying, and strolled out of the small study.

Wen Sier raised his fist towards his back and cursed in a low voice: "You bastard!"

Lu Yilan's lazy voice came from afar.

"Lord Wen, please don't insult me ​​behind my back."

Wensel: ...

She gritted her teeth and pulled the corners of her mouth, and said loudly: "Your subordinate, I dare not!"

……

It was not until late at night that Wensier finished reading all the files.

She squeezed her sore shoulders and neck and let out a long breath.

The carriage to pick her up was ready at the door. As soon as she sat in, Ayun brought hot tea and snacks to her.

"Master, please eat something and drink some hot tea."

He looked at the fatigue in Wen Sier's eyes and felt distressed. "The prince is really annoying. He always keeps staring at the young master."

Wen Sier lazily took the tea and drank two sips slowly. Hearing this, he curled his lips and said, "Small-minded dog man, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely take revenge on you!"

After whispering a few bad words about Lu Yilan to his servant, Wen Si'er felt a lot better both physically and mentally.

When they returned home, Ah Yun left some hot dishes for her. While eating, Wen Sier sighed with tears in her eyes, "Ah Yun, what would I do without you!"

Ah Yun scratched his head embarrassedly, "Master, don't worry, Ah Yun will always be by your side."

Wen Si'er paused, then started talking about his trip to Xuzhou.

Ah Yun opened his mouth and said, "Master, Xuzhou just suffered a disaster. I heard that there are refugees making trouble recently. You can't go there. It's too dangerous!"

Wen Sier sighed and shook his head, "This is not something I can decide."

Ah Yun was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He paced around the room for a long time before he stammered, "Why don't you go and ask the master to push this matter off for you..."

Wen Sier sneered, "Begging that old man, I'd rather die."

Ah Yun couldn't bear to hear her say such things, so he stood aside pitifully, his voice choked with sobs, "Master, you just came home not long ago, and now you have to go out again... What if something happens on the way? The young lady is... Woo."

Seeing that Ah Yun was really sad, Wen Sier patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. Although it seems that King Qiansha forced me to go, I actually have my own considerations."

Ah Yun blinked and looked at her.

"One is that this is an important opportunity for me to be reinstated. If I can't get the official seal, I will always be constrained in doing things in this capital. Another is... I am so happy to be able to stay away from that bastard Lu Yilan."

In fact, Wen Si'er was not only after the official seal, more importantly, Hongniang had sent her a message not long ago that there seemed to be clues about the Wen family's ancient tomb in Xuzhou. No matter what the reason was, she had to go and find out.

And being able to stay away from Lu Yilan is simply a great thing!

Finally, I don’t have to be kept under the watchful eyes of that bastard every day!

Ah Yun was worried, but he also knew that he couldn't interfere with the young master's work, so he had to say, "Then the young master must take me with you."

Wen Si'er thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, but when we get there you have to listen to me and stay in a safe place. I'm afraid that if something happens, I won't be able to protect you." Ayun nodded quickly.

"Then I'll go pack my things for the journey now!"

He was about to trot out, but just as he reached the door, he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned around, "By the way, Master, there was news from the mansion today that Master Liu will arrive in the capital tomorrow."

Wen Sier paused, then was surprised, "Grandfather will be in the capital tomorrow!?"

Ah Yun nodded, "Lord Liu kept it a secret on the way here this time. The news was only released when he was almost there."

Wen Sier was silent for a moment, then waved his hand, "I understand, go ahead..."

The surroundings fell silent. Wen Sier propped up her head and sighed. Her grandfather must have heard about their situation and rushed to the capital. Her grandfather was old and could not bear the blow. She must conceal the news of her brother's accident...

The next morning, Wen Si'er packed up and went to the city gate to wait for someone.

It was still early, and there were only a few people coming and going at the city gate. Wen Si'er stared at the door, somewhat absent-minded.

In the past, his grandfather loved them very much. Even though he became stupid and foolish later, his grandfather never despised him.

My mother died early due to illness, and my grandfather had to bury her young son before him. Since then, his health has been deteriorating, so he resigned from his official position early and returned to the countryside. Later, when my father got into trouble again, my grandfather also rushed back to the capital overnight, but was persuaded to go back by my brother afterwards.

After all, the capital city is a place where people are eaten alive, which is not conducive for the elderly to recuperate.

Just as he was thinking, the sound of a horse neighing was heard. Wen Sier came back to his senses instantly and saw a familiar carriage.

She subconsciously put on a smile and went forward to greet him, "Grandfather!"

The curtain of the car was lifted, and an old man with white hair and beard poked his head over. When he saw her, the wrinkles on his face became deeper.

"Tomorrow!"

Wen Si'er's eyes felt a little hot. She walked forward and jumped into the carriage. As soon as she got in, her hands were held by a pair of warm hands.

"Good boy, how come you've lost so much weight? You must have suffered a lot..."

Wen Sier shook his head and said obediently: "No, Grandpa, I'm doing well... How are you?"

The old man looked in good spirits, but his figure was obviously thinner, and he looked very old, which made Wen Si'er's heart beat uncontrollably.

Liu Zhengan shook his head, "It's still the same."

Before he could finish, Wen Si'er grabbed his wrist.

She lowered her eyes and tried carefully, and her expression gradually became a little ugly.

"The breath organization, the stagnant internal organs, the internal breath is chaotic... This is..."

Wen Si'er suddenly raised his head and looked at Liu Zhengan in disbelief.

"Grandfather, are you poisoned!?"

Liu Zhengan was stunned for a moment, then he grabbed Wen Sier's wrist with his backhand and lowered his voice, "Don't say anything!"

Wen Si'er pursed his lips, and saw Liu Zheng'an staring at something in a daze for a while, and then he sighed deeply and said in a hoarse voice; "You said I was poisoned... my lungs were stagnant and my internal energy was chaotic. Your mother... also died of this poison..."

After he finished speaking, tears began to flow from his cloudy eyes. (End of this chapter)
