“By the way,” the man pretended to suddenly remember. “Since Sanfu has been in the military camp for a while. Do you know how he is doing in the military camp? With his strength, he should be able to do well in the military camp.”
“I’m not sure about that either, but Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both say that he’s been doing well.” Xue Yifu smiled foolishly.
“Xue Yan and Jiang Yue?” This person immediately became suspicious. How did these two know that Xue Sanfu was doing well in the military camp?
Xue Sanfu was all the way at the other side!
Shao Shuting, the general of the Southern Region, had previously recuperated in this village. He seemed to have been recuperated in a farmer’s house with the surname Xue. Could it be that they were the ones that took care of him? If that was the case, then there seemed to be a child in this family who was about the same age as the Crown Prince. At that time, some of the men had suspected that this child was the Crown Prince.
However, their master denied it.
As for the specifics, he did not participate in that investigation. He had only heard about it, so he naturally did not know much. However, since their master said that it was not, it was definitely not.
“My younger brother and sister.” Xue Yifu wasn’t wary at all, still smiling foolishly. “Although one of them is only seven years old and the other is only four years old, they are both very smart.”
Upon hearing that he was seven years old, this person immediately confirmed that this was the family that had once saved Shao Shuting!
Shao Shuting had been recuperating in this person’s house for more than a month!
So, Duke Shao must be treating Xue Sanfu so well and personally taught Xue Sanfu because this family had saved his third son, Shao Shuting right?
This person had this thought in his heart, but he did not show it on his faceo He even asked with a smile, “Was Sanfu the only one in the village who joined the army?
“Wufu also went.” Xue Yifu laughed. “He’s like a monkey. Xue Yan and Jiang Yue also said that he’s doing well in the military camp.”
“A monkey-like person?
This person noted down everything they said in his heart.
He also felt that the relationship between Shao Shuting and the Xue family had not been severed just because Shao Shuting left the village and returned to the military camp. The two sons of this family had already gone to the camp. Moreover, Duke Shao is good to one of them.
“Yifu, it was Xue Yan and Jiang Yue who told us everything. Even if they’re smart, they shouldn’t know about the military camp, right?”
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua were both heartless people. However, Yu Hongyan, who was taking care of the child, heard something and felt that this person was asking for too much. She immediately said unhappily, “What do you mean?
Why are you asking about this in such detail? What do you want to know? Xue Yan and Jiang Yue are only children, so how would they know what’s going on in the military camp? They’re just here to comfort my big brother and the others, who are always worried that Sanfu and Wufu aren’t doing well in the military camp.”
He didn’t expect the woman carrying the child to have some brains. This person’s heart was actually filled with killing intent, but he also knew that he couldn’t kill people casually here. He had to heed to his master’s orders. Or perhaps he should find a reason to do the killing before actually doing it.
In the current situation, it was not necessary to kill.
His master only asked him and another person to investigate, but he didn’t ask him to kill anyone.
The man could only smile and say, “I heard Yifu say that. I was curious, so I asked. I’m sorry if I overstepped. You’re really overthinking things.”
Hearing the melodious laughter of a woman behind the house, the man wanted to ask, but his behavior just now had already disgusted the woman carrying the child. If he asked again, the woman carrying the child would question him even more and suspect his motive..
