Chapter 141 Troublesome Physique
The room was quiet for a brief moment.
Wen En raised his head and stared at Wen Wan's face almost crazily.
"Sister," his voice was choked with sobs, and he prayed: "Let's go and swear an oath under the Demonic Fall Tree."
"Huh?" Wen Wan shrank her hand, "Well, I have to cut my hand to bleed. I'm afraid of pain."
Hearing this, he coquettishly put his hand on the back of her hand and coaxed softly: "It's just a small wound, just like an ant bite. It doesn't hurt."
"I heard that the Demonic Fall Tree is very powerful. Sister, don't you have any wishes that you want to realize?"
Wen Wan shook her head repeatedly, "Then you can't swear randomly. If it doesn't work, forget it. For peace of mind, if it really works, what price will you have to pay?"
In the past, Wen Wan would have dismissed such legends, and Gao Lu would have made a few remarks about engaging in feudal superstition and endangering society.
But now, she has personally experienced such a thing as soul time travel. If she talks about the legend being impossible to be true, it would be a little hard to say.
Wen En seemed to be very persistent about this matter. He hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this? If my sister makes a wish, I will pay the price?"
"Ha," Wen Wan curled her lips, "You said you would pay, so you will pay? Does the Demon Meteor Tree listen to you so much?"
Seeing that Wen Wan was resolute and showed no intention of compromising, Wen En lowered his head in frustration.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and when he raised his head again, his face showed a very cold look.
"Sister," Wen En said calmly: "If you and I go to the Demonic Fall Tree to make a wish, I will give you the evidence of the Queen's cousin's crime. How about that?"
As soon as he said this.
Wen Wan sat up in shock, not even half asleep.
Her face darkened, "You...you know what the queen wants me to do?"
"Yes." Wen En admitted, "There are people of mine everywhere in the royal court today."
He spoke in an understatement, but Wen Wan was secretly frightened when he heard it.
There are his people everywhere in the royal court. Does he know about Shen Yu sneaking in?
Shen Yu climbed through the window in the dark to look for her, and Wen En rushed over. Did he know anything?
Wen Wan doesn't want to believe that he has such great powers, but if everything is really under his control, then the person in front of him is too scary.
A chill ran down her spine, and cold sweat instantly broke out on her forehead.
"I don't blame my sister for agreeing to the queen and helping her come to me to find evidence. He is just an insignificant person. It makes no difference to me whether he is killed or let go."
Wen En stroked her hand lustfully and said softly: "It's just that next time, sister can tell me directly what you want. I..."
When he spoke, the sadness in his tone seemed to turn into substance. For a moment, even Wen Wan was infected by the sadness, as if he had fallen into an endless hell, where there was only pain everywhere.
Just listen to him choke and say: "I will give everything I have to give you what you want."
At that time, Wen Wan thought it was just his casual coaxing words, until many years later, when Wen Wan thought of this night again.
Only then did she realize how heavy his promise was.
Although she didn't know what the wish was that made the little prince of Mobei obsessed with it so deeply, in the end, Wen Wan agreed to him and accompanied him to the Demonic Fall Tree to make a wish.
In fact, when the deal between the queen and her was revealed, she had no choice.
*
In the royal court, the atmosphere had been very depressing these two days.
Because everyone knew that the little prince was in a bad mood.
The key evidence in the corruption case that the young prince was responsible for was completely burned by a fire.
It is said that the young prince accidentally knocked over the candlestick, and the burning tung oil poured on the ledger.
Without the key evidence, the queen's cousin could not be convicted of death, and he could only be relieved of his position in the royal court.
For this reason, King Mobei became furious and punished the young prince for the first time, personally lashing him with twenty long whips.
After Wen Wan heard about this, she felt mixed emotions. Especially because Yu Qiting was very likely to be Wen En, she became even more uneasy.
She hesitated for a long time, but decided to visit him.
At that time, Wen En was lying on the bed, and the heavy curtains beside the bed blocked her view.
She stood outside the curtain, thinking about whether to go in and take a look.
Wen En seemed to feel her hesitation, "Sister, my back hurts so much..."
Wen Wan: "..."
Yes, the little wolfdog who knows how to act coquettishly will not give her a chance to hesitate.
She sighed, then opened the curtain and walked in.
When she saw the scars on his back clearly, Wen Wan took a deep breath.
There are various scars all over his back, old and new. Some old scars are still dark brown. It may be that he was poisoned when he was injured.
Compared with those scars, the whiplash now seems insignificant.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Every piece of skin on his body seemed to bear witness to the suffering he had suffered.
The last time she saw such a nerve-wracking scar was on Winn's body.
For some reason, Wen Wan suddenly felt her nose was a little sore and her eyes were completely red.
Winn had been watching her since she came in, so he didn't miss a single bit of the shocked and distressed expression on her face.
He couldn't help but smile happily, "Sister, you feel sorry for me."
Wen Wan was startled, then recovered and said nothing.
Because, at this moment, her suspicion of the little prince reached an uncontrollable level.
He is Winn!
Even if he changed his face, it would still be him!
"You..." Wen Wan's lips trembled, wanting to ask at all costs.
"Sister." Wen En interrupted her suddenly, "Sister, I am the young prince of Mobei Royal Court... I can bear this little injury."
This sentence seems completely wrong, but it has an accent on the word "little prince".
He was reminding her of who he was now.
Wen Wan woke up suddenly, glanced at the guards and palace attendants around her, and suppressed what she wanted to ask.
She walked forward slowly and sat down on the low stool next to the bed.
"Does it hurt?" she asked with a slight trembling.
Wen En held her hand and smiled, "With my sister here to accompany me, it doesn't hurt at all."
He was always able to say flattering things casually.
"I originally planned to take my sister to the Demonic Fall Tree to make a wish tomorrow, but the doctor said it would be best for me not to get out of bed for the next two days, so my sister will wait for me for another two days, okay?"
He spoke to her softly, as if he was afraid that she would be angry.
Wen Wan's heart felt even more painful, and she said in a rough voice: "Okay."
Wen En was very satisfied, and rubbed the back of her hand with a bright smile, again acting like a puppy trying to please its owner.
I just heard him say something inexplicable again.
"Sister, don't be afraid. Think carefully, from beginning to end, have I done anything to hurt you?"
"Even though...even though I have caused a lot of trouble for my sister, I am not willing to get into those troubles."
