Chapter 451

"Li Qiuchi went to see the Handprint Lady. He must have gone to complain about us!" Under the light, Tian Tianyou heard Tian Wenbo's whispers and waved him away. He sneered at Tian Binfei. Tian Binfei didn't say anything. She just took a sip of wine and put down the veil she had lifted.

After a while, Tian Wenbo came in and whispered a few more words into Tian Tianyou's ear. Tian Tianyou put down his chopsticks and frowned. "Hua Yunfei and Fatty Luo also went to see the Handprint Lady. I remember Ye Xiao 'an said that the two of them seemed to be suspicious of him and tried to sound him out."

Tian Binfei said lightly, "Where's the evidence? They were suspicious, but without any evidence, they dared to go to the Handprint Lady's room and say that her husband is fake? You don't have to worry. I think they just feel uneasy and want to sound out the Handprint Lady's reaction. "

Tian Tianyou let out a long sigh. He was still worried and snorted. "Ye Xiaotian's parents are just country bumpkins. There's nothing to be afraid of! Duo Ni is just a girl from the mountains raised by a concubine. Now that the chieftain is protecting his brother, she'll be scolded for being shameless if she gets too close to him. There's nothing to be afraid of.

The others are all inferior to the chieftain. Even if they have suspicions, they can't question them. Ye Xiao 'an just needs to keep his cool and ignore them. Only this Tian Miaowen is shrewd and the Handprint Lady. She's in charge of the internal affairs of Crouching Bull. Even if Ye Xiao 'an uses the mourning period as an excuse, he can't avoid contact with her. It's too dangerous. We should get rid of her! "

Tian Binfei heard this and smiled. Although Tian Tianyou couldn't see his smile, he could feel it. Seeing Tian Binfei's slightly disdainful look, Tian Tianyou became even angrier. He hated Tian Binfei's arrogance, acting like he was much more intelligent than him.

Tian Binfei said, "You speak as if the eldest daughter of the Tian Clan and the Handprint Lady of Crouching Bull Ridge are in our hands, and we can kill her whenever we want. Do you think it's that easy? Ever since Ye Xiaotian made his debut, how many people wanted to kill him, only to be killed by him instead? Only now did we succeed by luck. Ye Xiaotian often went out in public, so he had more opportunities to make a move. However, Tian Miaowen was different. Did she really think it was easy to make a move on her? There's a sword on the wall. Try going to her residence now. "

Tian Binfei was not afraid to show his intention to protect Tian Miaowen. Tian Xiufeng knew his true identity, so it was reasonable for him to do so. Moreover, Tian Xiufeng also hoped to keep Tian Miaowen. If the Ye clan's imprint was stripped from the Crouching Ox Ridge, they would lose control of the Tian clan as well. Even if the Tian clan had Yang Yinglong's support in the future, they would only be rootless.

They wanted to assist Yang Yinglong so that he could be conferred the title of marquis, while the other wanted to foil his schemes and ask for a reward from the court. One wanted to help Yang Yinglong succeed, relying on Yang Yinglong's meritorious service, he would be bestowed the title of marquis. The other wanted to foil Yang Yinglong's conspiracy, and use his great merit to ask the imperial court for a reward.

Don't think you can talk to me like that just because the third madam favors you. I belong to the heavenly monarch! " Don't think you can talk to me like that just because the third madam favors you. I belong to the heavenly monarch! "

Tian Binfei said sarcastically, "That's no fun. Aren't the third madam and the heavenly monarch family? When the heavenly monarch achieves greatness in the future, one will be the son of heaven, while the other will be the empress. You and I will be subjects of the same majesty. "

"Hmph!" Tian Tianyou put down his wine cup and said angrily, "Don't drink too much to avoid trouble. I'm going to sleep!"

Although his actual status was higher than Tian Binfei's, he was disguised as Tian Binfei's attendant. Therefore, he could only sleep in the outer room. Since he didn't agree with them, he left in a huff and went to rest in the attendant's bedroom.

Tian Binfei drank two cups by himself and said loudly, "It's boring to drink alone. Wenbo, come and drink with me."

Tian Wenbo came in and said with a bitter smile, "Sir is drunk. Go to bed early."

Tian Binfei laughed, "Boring, boring! Boring people! Get me a pot of tea! "Then, he stood up shakily and walked towards his bedroom with weak footsteps …

…

Ye Xiao 'an lay on the bed, full of worries. His mind was in a mess for a long time before he fell asleep unknowingly. In the name of defending the system, he ate simple food and did not eat meat. His residence was also a hard bed and straw mat, and the bedding was not beautiful.

However, he was a chieftain after all, so it was impossible to give him a straw hut. This bedroom was also an important part of the main bedroom in the back house. The floor was also covered with earth, so it was warm and pleasant. There was no need for a charcoal oven, so the air was dry.

Ye Xiao 'an only covered himself with a thin quilt, so he did not sleep well. He had already returned to Crouching Bull Ridge for a few days, but he was still not used to his current identity. He slept for a long time in a daze. Suddenly, he felt the light in the room was on. Ye Xiao' an suddenly opened his eyes …

What he saw shocked Ye Xiao 'an. He wanted to cry out, but his mouth was immediately covered by a hand.

"Shh, brother, be quiet!" The other him who sat by the bed put a finger to his lips and made a shushing gesture. Only then did he gently let go of the hand covering his mouth.

Ye Xiao 'an shivered as if he had contracted malaria, "You … you, you … Xiao' er, did you come to see me in my dreams? I didn't do anything wrong to you, I really didn't … "

… …

That night, there were no stars, no moon, and the sky was gloomy.

In the middle of the chilly night, a wheelchair stopped silently in front of the door. The door was open, and he sat in the wheelchair, waiting there quietly, as if he was waiting for something. The light shone from the side, illuminating half of his face that was covered by a soft cloth. Only his eyes shone brightly.

In the courtyard, a pair of figures suddenly appeared, one in front and one behind. One was slender, one was muscular. Tian Binfei who sat in the wheelchair immediately straightened his back, and his breathing became heavy. The slender figure in the courtyard stopped. The muscular figure behind, who was clearly a guard, was a step behind and also stopped there.

Tian Binfei's chest rose and fell for a long time before he said hoarsely, "Come in. If I don't wake them up, they won't wake up."

Tian Binfei pushed the wheelchair back into the room and slid to another light. Under the light was undoubtedly the darkest place in the room. It seemed that in his subconscious, he always wanted to find a place like this to feel more at ease.

The slender figure that was like the flowing water of the spring river slowly walked into the room. The golden light shone on her body, face, and hair. The two crystal tears on her jade-like cheeks also turned into golden pearls.

The pair of pale golden "pearls" slowly crawled over her jade-like cheeks and silently splashed onto the ground, disappearing. Tian Miaowen's trembling voice was like a silk string being plucked by a light breeze, "Brother, is that you?"

Sitting in the wheelchair, Tian Binfei silently sat there, silently looking at her. Only his pair of eyes were filled with excitement. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice, "It's me!"

Tian Miaowen gently walked in front of him. Her feet seemed to be stepping on soft petals as a pair of soft hands gently touched his cheeks. Tian Binfei suddenly reached out and grabbed her hands, as if he wanted to stop her. But when he saw Tian Miaowen's eyes, he seemed to suddenly lose all his strength. His hands slowly fell down and tightly gripped the armrests of the wheelchair.

The veil was taken off, revealing a horrifying face full of scars. Tian Miaowen's white fingers gently stroked it. Her tears were like a broken string of pearls as they fell down one by one. She could no longer count them, "Brother, you … … how did you become like this?"

"Ethics cannot tolerate me! Heaven and Earth cannot tolerate me! I brought this upon myself … … "Tian Binfei's voice drifted as if it came from another world. He sobbed softly and red candle tears filled the candlestick.

… …

The people who woke up early realized that it had silently snowed during the night. The snow was not heavy. In some places, the snow melted as soon as it touched the ground. In some places, there was still a thin layer of white snow covering it. It looked greyish white and was far from the beauty of the jade trees after the snow fell in the north.

Tian Tianyou woke up early and was standing in front of the door admiring the scenery. Suddenly, he saw a group of people walking towards him from afar. There were a few strong men, but in the middle was a graceful woman. Tian Tianyou was stunned for a moment before he quickly turned around and ran into the courtyard.

He recognized the woman. She was the Palm Print Lady, Tian Miaowen. Tian Miaowen must have come early in the morning to see the chieftain. Tian Tianyou hurriedly returned to report the news. He saw the Palm Print Lady from afar but did not go forward to greet her. Instead, he turned around and ran away. Although it was not logical, he was now a country bumpkin from the mountains. Doing so suited his disguise. By the time Tian Miaowen arrived, Ye Xiaotian had already been warned by him.

"I have something to discuss with the chieftain. All of you can leave!" Tian Miaowen ordered plainly. The couple wanted to have a chat and obviously did not want them to hear it. The people that Tian Miaowen brought immediately bowed and left. Tian Binfei and the rest had no choice but to leave the hall.

Tian Tianyou quickly glanced at Ye Xiaotian and saw that he was slightly panicked. He was looking at them with a pleading expression. Tian Tianyou quickly returned a look, but even he could not tell if it was a threat, encouragement, or something else.

Outside the corridor, Tian Binfei, Tian Tianyou, Tian Wenbo, and the people that Tian Miaowen brought along, Dang Yanming, Li Bojin, Zong Hua, and the rest naturally split into two groups. They stood on either side of the corridor. Tian Binfei looked at the group of people opposite and suddenly said, "I remember there's also Mister Wu Daniu and Brother Xu Sheng. Why aren't they here today?"

After hearing Tian Binfei's words, Tian Tianyou looked at the opposite side again and could not help but feel ashamed. There were indeed two people missing from the opposite side, but he did not notice at all. He was indeed a far cry from "Tian Zaixing" in this kind of meticulous skill. It was no wonder that even though he was the Heavenly King's trusted aide, Tian Binfei was the one in charge.

Dang Yanming said plainly, "Those two were sent by Mistress to Jiangnan to get good seeds and farming tools. If they are not going to start now, will it be too late to wait until spring? Since Mister is highly regarded by the chieftain and has become Miaowen's number one aide, you should always keep these matters in mind and not always let Mistress worry about them! "

Tian Binfei laughed dryly and said, "These internal affairs were all handled by Mister Li in the past. I just received the chieftain's orders and haven't had the time to … cough! You must be careful in the future. "

Tian Tianyou saw Tian Binfei's speechless expression after being rebuked by Dang Yanming and was secretly pleased. He really hated Tian Binfei's arrogant and all-in-control attitude. Now that he saw him suffer, he felt much better.

However, his attention quickly shifted from Tian Binfei to the hall. Standing in the corridor on either side of the hall's entrance, he could not see the situation in the hall at all. Tian Tianyou felt uneasy, "What does Tian Miaowen want to talk about by coming to see Ye Xiao 'an so early in the morning? That idiot, can't he handle it? "
