Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

To deliver the message to my wife, I had to make so many turns. Was it easy for me? Fortunately, I am clever. I know I need to leave a trail so that I can send her messages directly in the future, without having to go through such twists and turns!

But then, Huangfu Lingyao thought smugly, However, after swindling Liang Ji out of 2,000 taels of silver, I should think about getting something nice for my wife later!

Liang Yi didnt realize he had been cunningly tricked by the sly Huangfu Lingyao. He handed the booklet to Liu Shimei and said, Start with this.

Alright. Liu Shimei took the booklet and began to read.

Huangfu Lingyao was always sticking to his wife. Wherever she went, he wished he could be glued to her, preferably as conjoined twins, to satisfy his desires.

Sitting at a square table, he even insisted on sharing the same long bench with her, eagerly watching Liu Shimei.

Liang Yi couldnt stand the sight of him and retorted, I say, King Dun Yu, youre a grown man. Why do you act like a weaned baby all the time? And its not your mother youre clinging to, but your fiancee. What kind of logic is that?

Huangfu Lingyao could not tolerate Liang Yi immediately competing for his wifes attention as soon as he appeared. He retorted without any courtesy, Wife is fine with me sticking to her, and I enjoy it. What business is it of yours?

He snorted and looked at Liu Shimei, saying, Wife likes me this way. She doesnt like those who are never home, dont stick to their wives, and seek mistresses!

Sure enough, this reason made Liang Yi truly convinced!bender

But was he truly content?

Of course not!

Liang Yi decided to turn and persuade his own sister, but when he turned around, he saw Liu Shimei engrossed in studying the materials, so he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Even as she read the materials, Huangfu Lingyao held her hand, and she showed no signs of resistance.

What else could he say?

Well then, if his sister was happy, that was good!

The information in the booklet was not extensive, but it consisted of the most crucial points.

After reading through it, Liu Shimei looked up at Liang Yi and said, The first point: Wen Gui, who grew up with my brother from childhood, finished handling matters behind my brothers death and went to guard his tomb. I initially thought he was forced, but from the information, it seems he did so willingly. Wen Gui went to my father himself and requested to guard my brothers tomb.

Do you find anything suspicious? Liang Yi asked.

Huangfu Lingyao pretended not to understand anything, holding the booklet and studying it, but he was secretly eavesdropping on the conversation between the siblings.

Liu Shimeis mind was focused on serious matters and she didnt notice what he was up to. She answered, Wen Gui indeed had a good relationship with my brother. My brother treated him more like a brother than a servant and never looked down on him. When my brother passed away, Wen Gui was devastated and might have wanted to guard his tomb out of grief. This kind of scenario seems plausible.

Liang Yi tapped his lower jaw with his tongue, his young face full of thought. But you still find it suspicious?

Yes, Liu Shimei nodded and continued, Let me ask you this. Ninth Brother, if you were Wen Gui, would you do such a thing? Even if you were close to your master, he was just a young man of barely 20. If it were you now, would you be willing to spend your life guarding someones tomb for them?

Liang Yi placed his dagger on the table, pressing down with one hand and fidgeting with the hilt of the blade with the other. He earnestly put himself in Wen Guis shoes, contemplated for a moment, and then said, If I were Wen Gui, I wouldnt do it! No matter how deep the affection, a grown man wouldnt sacrifice his life for his master! But Wen Gui was a servant, so its a different story.

So, I think this is one of the suspicious points, Liu Shimei said, adding, Secondly, the crucial point is, after guarding the tomb for two years, Wen Gui disappeared from the Liu familys cemetery.. So, where did he go?
