Zongwu: After reading my diary, my master's wife collapsed

"The Mansion of the Divine Marquis!" Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang came to the mansion of the Divine Marquis Zhuge and looked at the three big words "The Mansion of the Divine Marquis" written on it.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Ye Xiu went forward and knocked on the door.

"I'm coming." As he spoke, the door of the Shenhou Mansion opened a crack, and a man's head stuck in from the crack, and saw Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang standing outside.

When the man saw Ye Xiu, he didn't see any change. After all, Ye Xiu had changed his appearance. Although he didn't look ugly after the change, he was not as handsome as his original face.

On the contrary, when he saw Lian Nishang, a hint of surprise flashed in the man's eyes. It was obvious that he had rarely seen a woman as beautiful as Wuqing.

"Excuse me, what is this?"

"We came here specifically to look for Wuqing. Please let us know." Ye Xiu said with a smile.

"Looking for Wuqing? Who are you? Why are you looking for Wuqing?" The man couldn't help but frown when he heard Ye Xiu say that.

If he was looking for other people in the Shenhou Mansion, he would not be so vigilant. The only exception was Wuqing, the most beautiful girl in their mansion, and a girl with limited mobility. So when a stranger came looking for Wuqing, the people in the Shenhou Mansion would naturally be more vigilant.

"Just go and tell Miss Wuqing that the man riding a thousand-mile horse will come to visit you."

"A person riding a thousand-mile horse?" This person obviously knew that the Shenhou Mansion had tried to find a person riding a thousand-mile horse some time ago, but never found anyone. Later, they gradually stopped looking for him. But he didn't expect that at this time, someone claiming to be the one riding a thousand-mile horse came to the door.

"Then please wait a moment, I will go and report."

The man closed the door again. Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang stood outside the Shenhou Mansion waiting, but Lian Nishang couldn't help feeling a little impatient. She was not a woman with much patience, or rather, she didn't have that much patience when it came to this kind of thing.

But now that she can be with Ye Xiu, no matter how impatient she is, she won't feel impatient anymore.

……

"Uncle, uncle. There are two people outside the door. They claim to be men riding on thousand-mile horses and they come specifically to find Wuqing." The man quickly ran into the hall, looked at the group of people who were eating hot pot, and shouted loudly to Zhuge Shenhou.

"A man riding a thousand-mile horse? Coming to find Wuqing?" Zhuge Xiaohua subconsciously looked at Wuqing next to him.

Zhuge Xiaohua also felt that something was not quite right with Wuqing these days.

No, it’s not just these few days, it’s been a while. For a while, Wuqing’s mood has been a little off, as if he had encountered something, or was waiting for someone.

Later, Wuqing suddenly said that he wanted to find someone riding a thousand-mile horse. Zhuge Shenhou did not ask Wuqing too many questions about this, but directly mobilized people to look for him, in order to solve Wuqing's problem.

In recent days, the ruthless reaction has become more obvious.

At this time, a man who claimed to be riding a thousand-mile horse came to find Wuqing, which inevitably made Zhuge Xiaohua feel a little more worried.

As for Wuqing, after she heard that someone who claimed to be riding a thousand-mile horse was coming to see her, Wuqing immediately thought of the diary she had read yesterday. She was almost certain that it was the owner of the diary who came to see her.

Before, Wuqing had always hoped to find the other party and obtain the Shenzhaojing or Rama internal energy from the other party, and even hoped to get the truth about the extermination of her Sheng family from the other party.

It’s just that Wuqing had been struggling with how to meet Ye Xiu and how to have a conversation with him without causing Ye Xiu’s misunderstanding.

Now that Ye Xiu came to her on his own initiative, Wuqing was naturally very happy and excited. She even couldn't help feeling a little excited and nervous.

Zhuge Xiaohua saw that Wuqing's face suddenly became a little excited and nervous. He couldn't help frowning, because he felt that Wuqing's current look was a bit like a girl in love who wanted to see her favorite lover.

This made Zhuge Xiaohua feel very uncomfortable. The daughter she had raised with great effort was going to be seduced away by another man?

But he had never seen Wuqing have any contact with other men. When Wuqing suddenly changed, Zhuge Xiaohua even investigated for a while, but found nothing.

"Uncle Shi, and Wuqing, and the two people outside the door?"

Zhuge Xiaohua was awakened: "Just let them in."

"Well, let them in." Wuqing also nodded in agreement, his tone mixed with a bit of anticipation and nervousness. Wuqing's look made Zhuge Xiaohua even more unhappy.

Soon, Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang were brought to the living room.

Ye Xiu came to the living room and saw Zhuge Xiaohua Wuqing and Tie Shou eating hot pot around a table, but he didn't care much because he knew that eating hot pot was a common occurrence in Shenhou Mansion.

Ignoring the others, Ye Xiu set his gaze on Wuqing again. Wuqing was still as beautiful as before, but this time, her face was filled with excitement that was hard to conceal.

On the contrary, it was Zhuge Xiaohua. His gaze swept across Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang. A hint of amazement flashed in his eyes for such a beautiful woman like Lian Nishang, but his eyes finally fell on Ye Xiu.

But when Zhuge Xiaohua looked at Ye Xiu's relatively ordinary face, he couldn't help but frown. Especially when he saw Wuqing looking at Ye Xiu excitedly, he was even more so.

In Zhuge Xiaohua's opinion, if Wuqing really likes a man, that man must be handsome enough and have good enough conditions. However, Ye Xiu's appearance alone is not enough, not to mention that from the perspective of an old father, the son-in-law must be ugly out of thin air.

"Don't you two know what to address each other?" Although Zhuge Xiaohua was unhappy, she did not show it.

"Ye Xiu."

"Lian Nishang."

"Ye Xiu? Lian Nishang?" Zhuge Xiaohua frowned and quickly searched for these two names in her mind. However, it seemed that these two names did not exist within the territory of the Song Dynasty, or in other words, there were no corresponding people.

Then it expanded outward to the Yuan Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty, and then to the Ming Dynasty. Two people suddenly appeared in his memory.

One was the leader of the Green Forest Sect, Jade Rakshasa Lian Nishang, and the other was the relatively famous disciple of the Huashan Sword Sect, Ye Xiu. However, Lian Nishang's appearance seemed to match, with a beautiful face and a bit of heroism and murderous spirit between her eyebrows.

As for Ye Xiu, that doesn't make sense.

After all, in the news, Huashan Sect disciple Ye Xiu was particularly handsome, and was even praised as the most beautiful man in the Ming Dynasty. But the Ye Xiu in front of him looked ordinary.

Suddenly, Zhuge Xiaohua had an idea and looked at Ye Xiu's face carefully, focusing on his neck and the areas in front of and behind his ears, trying to figure out if Ye Xiu had changed his appearance.

But even though Zhuge Xiaohua looked very carefully and observed very minutely, she could not detect any signs of disguise.

On the contrary, Wuqing's eyes lit up again after hearing Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang introduce themselves.

Wuqing has already confirmed that the relatively ordinary-looking man Ye Xiu is the real owner of the diary.

"Uncle, can I talk to him—they—alone?" Wuqing said to Zhuge Xiaohua beside him.

"This - of course." Zhuge Xiaohua paused for a moment and nodded.

"You two, please follow me." Wuqing used his mental powers to push the wheelchair and walked out.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang also walked out, and Ye Xiu even reached out to push Wuqing's wheelchair.

"Thank you!" Wuqing lowered his head to express his gratitude.

"You're welcome."

Zhuge Xiaohua and the others watched Wuqing and Ye Xiu leave the living room.

“Uncle, do you want to—” Tieshou couldn’t help but ask Zhuge Xiaohua.

"No, since Wuqing wants to talk to them alone, let them talk alone. Come, let's continue eating hot pot." Zhuge Xiaohua said, picking up the chopsticks and starting to pick up the meatballs in the hot pot.

……

"Wuqing, you should know who I am, right? You are the same as Nishang and the others, right?" Ye Xiu looked at Wuqing and asked.

"Yeah!" Wuqing nodded.

"So, do you know why I came to see you?" Ye Xiu asked again.

"Yes, it's because I sent people to look for you, which caused you trouble. An Shigeng even sent people to hunt you down because of this. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If you want to blame someone, blame me. Uncle Shi - everyone in the Shenhou Mansion had no idea what was going on and was just following my orders." Wuqing apologized sincerely and tried to take all the blame on himself.

"Although this incident did make me a little unhappy, and I did have the urge to hit someone, but since it was you who said it - forget it, just write it down first. In fact, I came to you this time to give you a chance, a chance for you to stand up. You should know that I have a way to help you, right?"

"Yes, the Shenzhaojing and Rama's inner strength." Wuqing nodded, a little excited: "It's just that I don't have any bargaining chips to exchange--"

"You should also know that I am, um, a little greedy for you." Ye Xiu looked at Wuqing like this deliberately.

Wuqing's cheeks flushed, and he lowered his head shyly: "If, if you can tell me who was responsible for the annihilation of the Sheng family, I, I can, I can--" Wuqing's voice became lower and lower.

"That's no problem. Actually, it was the emperor who ordered the Sheng family to do it, and Zhuge Xiaohua did it."

“What?” Wuqing, who was originally a little shy and excited, was suddenly struck by lightning and looked at Ye Xiu in surprise.

Chapter 275 Memory Bias

"You, what did you say?" Wuqing looked at Ye Xiu in shock and disbelief.

"Although I don't remember many details clearly, it was indeed the emperor of the Song Dynasty who issued the order, and the one who executed it was Zhuge Zhengwo. Oh, by the way, there seemed to be Tie Shou as well? Tie Shou didn't seem to be called Tie Shou before, what was it called? I can't remember clearly." Ye Xiu frowned and thought: "It seemed that the ones who took action were the Eight Evils or Six Evils, no, was it the Thirteen Evils? Anyway, there were several people, and among them were Zhuge Zhengwo and Tie Shou?"

Wuqing was like being struck by lightning. What Ye Xiu said was too shocking for her. She simply couldn't believe it, or rather, she simply didn't want to believe it.

Over the years, she has been living in the Shenhou Mansion, and Zhuge Zheng and I have always taken care of her, almost treating her like a daughter.

Tieshou has always taken good care of her and even made a wheelchair for Wuqing himself.

Tie Shou even upgraded the wheelchair Wu Qing was sitting on more than once for him. Wu Qing also regarded Tie Shou as his own brother.

But now, her uncle Zhuge Zhengwo, who was like a father to her, and Tieshou, whom she regarded as her own brother, were actually the murderers who wiped out her entire family. Wuqing could not accept this.

"This, this is not true, you, you are kidding me, right?" Wuqing couldn't help but ask.

"I never joke about this kind of thing. In fact, you can ask Zhuge Zhengwo and Tie Shou. Given their feelings and guilt towards you, they might tell you the truth if you press them. Or you can use your mind reading skills to read their inner thoughts while asking them questions, and you may be able to find out the truth." Ye Xiu shrugged.

Wuqing was in a trance, and for a moment, she was unable to accept the truth.

“In fact, Zhuge Zhengwo and Tieshou are just like a knife and a sword. The emperor of the Song Dynasty is the real murderer. You may feel better if you think about it this way.” Ye Xiu looked at Wuqing, thought for a while, and comforted him.

Hearing Ye Xiu say this, Wuqing's eyes lit up slightly.

Wuqing has deep feelings for Zhuge Zhengwo and Tieshou. She completely treats them as relatives and family members.

Therefore, Ye Xiu's words undoubtedly gave Wuqing a way out, allowing her to bypass Zhuge Zhengwo and Tieshou and put all the sins and faults on the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Of course, Wuqing couldn't accept the idea of ​​letting Zhuge Zhengwo and Tieshou go and not treating them as enemies. After all, no matter what, they were murderers.

But now with the Emperor of the Song Dynasty in front of him, Wuqing can automatically ignore Zhuge Zhengwo and Tieshou.

Seeing that Wuqing was still a little dazed, Ye Xiu didn't plan to say anything more. After all, Wuqing's current mood was not suitable for talking about anything else.

"This is the Shenzhaojing. You should practice it first to see if it has any effect on your legs. As for the Rama internal energy, it was created by Zhang Sanfeng after all. Even though Zhang Sanfeng gave it to me and allowed me to pass it on, I am reluctant to pass it on casually without any other choice. You should practice the Shenzhaojing first. If it doesn't work, I will give you the Rama internal energy." Ye Xiu placed a handwritten martial arts secret book of the Shenzhaojing on Wuqing's leg.

"Thank you. Thank you. I, I, I will, will obey any orders you give me from now on." Wuqing looked at the Shenzhaojing secret book and said with gratitude.

Originally Wuqing planned to exchange herself with Ye Xiu for the Divine Scripture and the truth behind her family's demise.

So Wuqing didn't feel embarrassed at all to make such a promise.

"Okay. That's about it for today. As for the truth about the extermination of your Sheng family, you should investigate it yourself, and then think about whether or not to seek revenge, or how to do it. Once you have made up your mind, contact me. If necessary, I can help you, provided that there are no powerful masters in the palace." Ye Xiu also made a promise to Wuqing.

"Thank you." Wuqing thanked again.

After Ye Xiu, Lian Nishang and Wuqing finished their conversation, they left the Shenhou Mansion directly.

As for Wuqing, she returned to the living room with mixed feelings.

"Wuqing, you're back. Come over and have dinner quickly. We left some food specially for you." When Zhuge Shenhou saw Wuqing coming back, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Well, thank you, uncle!" Wuqing nodded slightly in thanks.

"What are you and I thanking each other for?" Zhuge Zheng laughed.

However, although Zhuge Zhengwo was smiling on the surface, he had a bad feeling in his heart, because he found that Wuqing's mood was a little bit wrong.

Wuqing was a little dazed, and Zhuge Zhengwo didn't know if it was an illusion or not. He always felt that the way Wuqing looked at him was a little subtle, quite different from before.

Zhuge Zhengwo frowned subconsciously, and he couldn't help but feel some doubts and even some disgust towards Ye Xiu and the other person who came to visit him. Obviously, this change in Wuqing was most likely caused by Ye Xiu and Lian Nishang.

Wuqing tried her best to act normal, finished her meal normally, and then let Tieshou push her to take a walk in the garden.

In fact, it was quite common for Tieshou to push Wuqing to take a walk in the garden. Tieshou, or other people, would push Wuqing to take a walk in the garden whenever they had nothing to do.

The reason why Wuqing said nothing and asked nothing before was to wait for this moment.

Wuqing knew that Zhuge Zhengwo was very powerful, whether in martial arts, mind, or other aspects.

Wuqing knew that if Zhuge Zhengwo wanted to hide something, she would not be able to get anything out of him.

As for her mind-reading skills, I am quite familiar with them. I have even mastered a method that can block her ruthless mind-reading skills for a short period of time.

Compared to Zhuge Zhengwo, who is more difficult to deal with, Tieshou is relatively easier to deal with.

Whether it is mind reading or other aspects, it is relatively easy for Wuqing to find the answer from Tieshou.

"Wuqing, when did you get to know the two people who came to see you today? Why haven't I heard you mention them before?" Tieshou pushed Wuqing to the garden and asked casually.

"I have known them for a while, but it was just a coincidence that we met before," Wuqing said.

"That's it."

"Well, both of them are very capable, especially when it comes to investigating information, so I entrusted them to help investigate the annihilation of my Sheng family." Wuqing explained, but as she said this, Wuqing's mind-reading ability had already begun to activate, targeting Tieshou. She wanted to see how Tieshou would react after hearing the news.

When Tie Shou, who was pushing the wheelchair, heard Wuqing talking about the tragic massacre of the Sheng family, his body paused slightly.

Wuqing, who had been paying attention to Tieshou, also noticed this. Most importantly, Wuqing sensed strong emotions such as guilt and regret from Tieshou.

Wuqing was already certain of this emotion. What Ye Xiu said was most likely true.
