Chapter 1081: The Young Master of the Wen Family

ss, Andrew. Of course, he remembered who paid him. Only after receiving a nod from Andrew did he open his mouth and say:When Miss Peony came to the bar for the first time, Mr. John Lee took the initia...The mistress, Wen Ruan, answered Lian Yi's question, which also informed everyone the reason why they were gathered together.

As soon as she spoke, the new brides in the courtyard were startled. After looking at each other, their eyes were full of disbelief and a hint of fear.

After all, they've only been here for two days and have already heard about the commotion at the entrance of Wen's Manor. Before even entering, someone died! Now, not even the groom has been seen, and within two days of moving into Wen's Manor, another person has died. If one were a normal person, they would be filled with terror.

Ripple also pretended to be surprised, then frowned and pointed at an attic, directly asking Wen Ruan:

“Are you talking about Miss Liu who lives in the attic”

"Yes, Miss Hua, how did you know"

The supervisor raised his eyes and asked.

These brides have only been at Wen Manor for two days, and according to the servants' observations, Miss Hua has only exchanged a few words with Miss Hong. She is not familiar with the other misses, and she barely knows Miss Liu, having only made brief eye contact. How could she accurately point out the location of their residence

"I might have seen the murderer last night."

The ripples didn't mince words and said it directly.

Wen Ruan only then took it seriously, and said gravely:

"What did Miss Hua see Could you please tell us so that the Wen family can investigate the situation"

"Of course."

The ripples responded cheerfully, then spoke:

Last night, it was probably around the hour of the tiger when I suddenly woke up from my sleep. To be precise, I was woken up by a gust of wind. After waking up, I found that the window was open. I remember that yesterday was Lìchūn (the start of spring) and the window was closed.

Though she wore a serious expression, Li Chun stepped forward and reported to Wen Ruan.

"I took care of the window last night. I closed it."

This also proves the ripples' claims.

Wen Ruan nodded and turned back to Lian Yi, gesturing for her to continue.

I saw the window was open, it was the middle of the night again, so I didn't wake up the maidservant. I got out of bed myself and closed the window. Just as I was closing the window, I seemed to see a black figure enter the attic.

At that time, I thought I was seeing things, but when I looked again, there was no one. Besides, I was tired too, so I closed the window and went to sleep. This morning, I was woken up by the Spring Equinox.

"I only just remembered this now after Madam told me about Miss Liu's misfortune. I would have thought it was all a dream if you hadn't mentioned it."

Liàn yī攤 手 道。

"Could Miss Hua recall any more details"

In a soft and gentle tone, she asked.

Because of the distance and only the hazy moonlight, I couldn't see very clearly. However, my impression was that the other person was somewhat thin, not very tall, but seemed very light.

Ripples pretended to be making an effort to recall something, and muttered as he thought.

And on the side, Hong Linger also pretended to be surprised, but only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.

At this time, a guard walked over and whispered a few words in Wen Ruan's ear. Wen Ruan nodded and looked around at everyone in the courtyard before speaking:

The physician just examined Miss Liu's body and found that she died from poisoning. To ensure the safety of all the ladies, the guards will be checking your rooms. We hope you will cooperate.

After hearing Wen Ruan's words, the rest of the new brides were unhappy. They said it was for their safety, but who didn't know that it was to search their houses They were all women and had already sent their belongings to their current residence yesterday. How could they let men touch their intimate clothing

Ripples immediately said unhappily:

"Are you implying that one of us killed Miss Liu Or are you just using this as an excuse to search again"

I won't say the dowry has been turned upside down by you, but how can we allow these male guards to look through our intimate clothing

"I don't know if we'll become the new brides of which young master in your Wen family, they don't mind, but this Miss does! It's not fair to treat people like this!"

Now that someone had spoken up for everyone, several other young ladies of noble birth also chimed in.

"You're right, Miss Hua. Since we were brought into the Wen family stronghold, we are practically half-Wen clan members. How could we allow an outsider into our rooms"

"That's indeed inappropriate. What if someone is deliberately framing us That person is malicious and could kill within your Wen family stronghold, they must be someone from your Wen family!"

"That's right. When we entered Wujia Fort, we didn't even have a maid with us. The maidservant accompanying us now was assigned by your Wujia Fort."

"That's right! After we arrived, we just stayed in this courtyard. At most, we went to the dining hall for meals. We didn't go anywhere else. Who knows who has been in our room after we left."

"That's what he said."

Everyone was talking a mile a minute, but they were clearly all intelligent women. I'd wager they'd all been well-trained by their families; none of them were naive or easily fooled, and they immediately started fighting back.

Wen Ruan frowned, though she didn't like these young ladies, especially Lian Yi who was always stirring up trouble. However, their suspicions were understandable, and it wouldn't be good to force the guards to search them.

"Since the ladies are concerned, our three persons shall accompany Lady Wen to inspect. We shall not allow the guards to enter your rooms where you reside, and we will certainly not tarnish your reputations."

A slightly magnetic male voice rang out in everyone's ears.

Like the ripples, she turned her head to look at the speaker.

Leading the way was a handsome man standing eight feet tall. He had sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, red lips and white teeth. He wore a well-fitting black robe with gold patterns, making him look very imposing.

Two people stood on either side of him. One was a man with phoenix eyes, his features somewhat ambiguous between male and female. He wore a crimson robe and his gaze was sharp as he scrutinized them intently.

Another man, about the same age as the Danfengyan man, had dog-like eyes but was extremely handsome. He wore a purple robe with dark patterns and was also looking at everyone with interest.

Her rippling eyes held a smile as she knew last night's events would certainly shock these three. They were the three young masters of Wen Family Fort, Wen Shirui, Wen Shige, and Wen Xuan.

According to the information In Yin Lou provided, Wen Shirui is the first person in his generation of the Wen family fortress, a strategist highly valued by the current head. However, his martial arts prowess remains unknown.

But the ripples felt a fluctuation of spiritual energy from the other person. Although it was very faint, she was certain that the other person was a cultivator.

While Wen Shige is the representative of Wen Jia Bao to the outside world, don't be fooled by their ambiguous appearance. They have a very high level of martial arts prowess. When Wen Jia handles matters externally, it is usually Wen Shige who takes care of them.

The youngest, Wen Shixuan, is both a medical and poisonous prodigy. He is the precious little darling that the Wen family protects most carefully, and his two older brothers also adore him very much.

Liàn Yī then smelled a hint of danxiang on him. She couldn't understand anything more, this one should be a Danxiu, so her martial arts value is low, that's why she was protected.

"Gentlemen, please don't trouble yourselves."

Wen Ruan immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying somewhat awkwardly.nitely help me."The girl with nearly embedded fingernails finally let out a breath of relief and loosened her grip on Ripple's wrist."These few days, you stay by my side. When the day of my wedding ar...
