When she got closer, Wei Ling asked doubtfully: "What did I bump into that scared you like this?"

The maid was so frightened that her eyes were a little dull, and she stuttered: "The one who was burned... was a human. It's the captured assassin."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions turned extremely ugly.

Fortunately, most of these people are descendants of the Wei family, and they have seen the world to some extent, so they will not be frightened to the point of losing all their integrity.

Wei Ling asked again with a stern face: "Who ordered the burning, have you found out clearly?"

The maid could smell the burnt smell in the air just now when she got closer, and she almost vomited out in disgust. Now she still had to endure the turbulence in her stomach, and said : "It was the Queen's order. The assassin injured the Queen's beloved horse and sprained His Majesty's foot. The Queen ordered that the assassin, whether dead or alive, must be burned as a warning to others." Xue Li heard the gasps of people around him

, Inexplicably, I thought of Wei Jie at this moment. He should be not far away. I don't know what a person like him would think when he saw the scene in front of him.

Everyone in the Wei family has to take care of the rest time, but a cousin like Xue Li doesn't care. The others have been brought up since childhood, and now they are too sleepy to open their eyes when the time comes. Fortunately, the corresponding carriage was ready, so they got up one by one and prepared to go back home at night.

Finally, it was Xue Li's turn. Yin Deng complained in a low voice, but she didn't care. She smiled and said, "That's how it should be, but I just need to sit a little longer." It wasn't until the carriages left one after another that Xue Li tightened his cloak and left

. , who knew that someone behind her stopped her.

"Mother Oriole."

The person who called her was Wei Li. Also accompanying him were Wei Jie and the second room chief, Wei Zhi.

Wei Zhi looked serious and walked quickly towards Xue Li. He looked at the wounds on her face and his tone softened: "I blame my uncle for being in such a hurry these past two days that you have been wronged." Xue Li has suffered a lot since he was a child

. She felt wronged, and few people were willing to comfort her with a few words, not even her mother. Thinking of this, her nose felt sour, and her tears became more sincere.

"My uncle has been very good to me, but it's my fault that always brings trouble to my uncle."

Wei Zhi comforted him, "Since I said I would take care of you mother and daughter, there is no reason for you to be wronged. "

After saying this, Wei Zhi turned around and glanced coldly at the person behind Wei Li.

Xia Houxin was followed by several attendants, all of whom had faces as golden as paper, said nothing, and did not even dare to raise their eyes. Xia Houxin also had a sullen face and glared at Xue Li angrily.

Xue Li showed a look of panic, and Wei Zhi said warmly: "Don't be afraid, my uncle and your two brothers are here, and we won't let him bully you. Now he is here to apologize to you, so just step forward and respond. ."

Xue Li stepped forward hesitantly, met Xia Houxin's angry face, stopped again, huddled behind Wei Jie and did not dare to move anymore, only glanced at him timidly. There were still undried tears in the corners of her eyes, and her frown was like begonia dew. She was so delicate and endearing.

When Xia Houxin met Xue Li's eyes, his heart felt like being scratched by soft bird feathers, and his throat was inexplicably dry. He licked his lips and stared at Xue Li with a direct and burning gaze, without any trace of emotion in his tone. apology. "It was my fault, Xiahou Xin, for offending the young lady. These servants were disobedient and went to vent my anger on my behalf, blaming me for my lax discipline. How about I teach them a lesson and let the young lady calm down?
