515 Family Recognition (3)
Yu Wan looked at her husband, who could cause trouble at any time. She held her husband’s hand under the table and looked at Yu Shaoqing and Madam Jiang. “Let me say it. At first, we left the Great Zhou with Ah Wei’s family. Yan Jiuchao was poisoned with Fragrance of Hundred Miles and needed four types of herbs. The Great Zhou didn’t have these herbs, so we came to Nanzhao.”
“What’s a Fragrance of Hundred Miles?” Yu Shaoqing had never heard of it. “Wasn’t he poisoned by a poison curse? And it’s already been resolved.”
Yu Wan said, “The poison curse is a poison curse, and the Fragrance of Hundred Miles is the Fragrance of Hundred Miles. In the past, the poison curse suppressed the Fragrance of Hundred Miles, so we didn’t discover the existence of the Fragrance of Hundred Miles. It wasn’t until the poison curse was resolved that the poison of the Fragrance of Hundred Miles appeared. In short, this is a very difficult poison to resolve, and for some reasons, we can’t make a big fuss. That’s why we secretly infiltrated the Imperial Capital in the name of returning to Yan City. The reason why we’re traveling with Grandma is because they know where to find the four medicinal primers.”
In that case, Yu Shaoqing understood. Yan Jiuchao had been schemed against when he was young, and it was not just once. The culprit might be in Nanzhao, so it was not convenient for them to make it public, in case they alerted the enemy and ruined his plan to find the medicinal primer.
Yu Shaoqing glanced at Grandma. He had long guessed that Ah Wei’s family were not ordinary hunters. Now, it seemed like they really were not.
Yu Shaoqing looked at his daughter, indicating for her to continue. Helian Beiming cleared his throat. Yu Wan smiled at him. “Uncle, you seem to be very nervous?”
“I’m not,” Helian Beiming said expressionlessly as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Yu Wan smiled and said, “The first time I saw you was outside Liu City. You almost killed me.”
Helian Beiming’s heart trembled and he almost fell off the wheelchair! How could this little girl trick her uncle like this?
Yu Shaoqing’s eyes instantly turned cold! So what if he was a War God? Could a War God bully his daughter?!
Sensing Yu Shaoqing’s glare, Helian Beiming felt terrible.
But this was only the beginning—
Since she had even explained that Yan Jiuchao had been poisoned, there was nothing to hide from her parents. Yu Wan told them everything about how they had infiltrated the West City, how they had been bullied by a Gu Master surnamed Yu, how they had killed another Gu Master, Fei Luo, and how they had almost been brought to justice by Helian Beiming.
For the first time, Helian Beiming felt a sense of guilt.
Yu Wan sighed and said, “I said that my father is his biological younger brother. The moment I saw the Grand General, I felt extremely familiar, as if I had seen my family. However, Uncle insisted that he buried you personally.”
Yu Shaoqing’s gaze could kill! Helian Beiming felt bitter. Girl, that’s not what you said at that time…
Helian Beiming looked at Yu Shaoqing. “Let me explain…”
“Hmph!” Yu Shaoqing turned his face away!
Yu Wan watched the commotion. “Uncle goes to pay his respects to Dad every year and burn incense and paper money for you.”
Yu Shaoqing’s face darkened. For the first time, Helian Beiming felt that this girl was really vengeful. She was about to trick him to death.
Back then, he had indeed found the corpse of a baby who had fallen miserably and personally buried him. That corpse was wearing his brother’s swaddling clothes, so he naturally did not think that he had made a mistake.
All these years, he had only been looking for his younger brother for the Old Madam to see. How could he have expected his younger brother to really appear?
If it was just Yu Shaoqing’s age and experience, it was not enough for him to believe it. If it was only this face, it was also not enough to believe. After all, the world was big, and it was not that there were no similar-looking people. However, if so many characteristics coincidentally matched, it was definitely not a simple coincidence.
He boldly guessed that what happened back then was probably not an accident. Someone had witnessed the setup and deliberately found the corpse of a baby. They exchange identities, making them think that his brother had fallen to his death, but in fact, he had saved his brother.
Helian Beiming did not know who that person was, but he was certain that that person must have hidden this from the mastermind as well. Otherwise, even if his brother had wandered to the Great Zhou, he would not have lived so peacefully for so many years.
Someone touched his brother… Why did that person do that? Who exactly was that person?
“By the way,” Yu Wan said, “my father has a recipe book in his swaddling.”
“Recipe?” Helian Beiming was puzzled.
Yu Wan shook her head. “No, Grandpa Bao said that it’s not a recipe. We don’t know what it is either. It’s a very tattered book. We thought that it was a token left by my father’s family for him to reunite in the future.”
