Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Chapter 323 The best arrangement

"Father, I have made you suffer."

Xu Yuan lowered his eyes, hiding the complicated expression in his eyes.

Although Xu Wenxian grew up in the capital, he no longer has any relatives there.

If it weren't for her, Xu Wenxian wouldn't have thought of returning to Beijing.

"We're a family, what's there to worry about? Besides, I have another matter to deal with when I return to the capital."

Hearing Xu Wenxian talking about this, Xu Yuan put aside his emotions and asked, "What is it? Maybe I can help."

"The culprit from that year has not been caught yet. If he is not found, I am afraid there will be endless pursuit in the future."

Xu Wenxian endured being hunted down.

But the disaster did not affect his wife and daughter.

If anyone dares to touch Xu Yuan and Zhang Yue, Xu Wenxian will make the people behind the scenes pay the price.

"Then does father know who that person is?" Xu Yuan asked carefully.

In the past, she only had a vague understanding of many things, especially the extermination of the Xu family.

In her eyes, it was a mystery that needed to be explored and verified one by one to find out the real culprit behind the scenes.

But now, Xu Yuan knows that most people in the capital know that it was an unjust case.

Including the Queen Mother.

But none of them spoke up for the Xu family because they were afraid that disaster would befall them.

In this world, what is more important than being alive?

Therefore, Xu Yuan guessed that Xu Wenxian also knew the murderer behind the scenes, but because the other party was so powerful, he could only keep it in his heart.

Xuyuan also has some guesses about that person.

But no one could confirm her guess.

"know."

"Who is it?" Xu Yuan asked hurriedly.

Xu Wenxian looked at Xu Yuan deeply and said, "Yuan'er, he is very cunning. You have worked hard for so many years. Leave the next matter to your father."

"but I……"

Seeing Xu Wenxian shaking his head at her, Xu Yuan’s voice gradually became lower.

"Yuan'er, you don't have to worry about these things. You should be a good young lady of the Xu family in the future. This is what you deserve. As for the rest, leave it to your father."

Xu Wenxian gently touched Xu Yuan's head and said in a gentle voice: "You have grown from a little girl back then to a big girl now. If your grandmother saw you, she would definitely be very happy."

Speaking of this, Xu Wenxian stood up and said, "The ancestral hall has been repaired. Come on, I'll take you to meet the ancestors of the Xu family."

"Okay." Xu Yuan followed Xu Wenxian as he was told.

Maybe it was because he was more tired after arriving in the capital, but Xu Yuan felt that Xu Wenxian's limping was getting heavier. He had only a slight limp before, but now it was particularly obvious.

Xu Yuan thought that he would have to find a famous doctor tomorrow.

Not to mention restoring Xu Wenxian's legs to their original state, at least it relieved the pain a little so that he wouldn't feel pain every rainy day.

Xu Wenxian didn't expect to remember that leg when he made the wish.

After all, if he remembered it, he would have been cured long ago.

In the ancestral hall, the lamps are always lit.

Xu Yuan knelt down in front of the futon and listened to Xu Wenxian talk about the ancestors of the Xu family, their personalities, hobbies, and what they loved to do, and then remembered them all deeply in his heart.

She should also tell these words to her own children in the future.

The ancestors of the Xu family cannot be forgotten.

The spirit of the Xu family cannot be forgotten.

"This is your aunt, Xu Xi, who is also my sister. Twenty years ago, she was also the most talented woman in the capital. She was outstanding in both appearance and talent, but unfortunately she met the wrong person."

Xu Wenxian just briefly mentioned everyone, including Xu Xi.

After he finished speaking, he said, "Yuan'er, all of us here are your backers. From now on in the capital, father will not let anyone look down on you."

"As long as you don't look down on yourself, what does the words of others matter?"

After making the wish, he kowtowed three times before standing up.

The two of them left the ancestral hall, but Xu Yuan did not rush back. Instead, he asked, "Dad, do you know Shen Yichuan? You met him once. He delivered a letter for you before."

Xu Wenxian's eyes dimmed and he said nothing.

Xu Yuan saw this and continued, "I heard that he has been living a life of drunkenness and debauchery recently. Father, do you know who he is?"

Xu Yuan didn't want to reveal Shen Yichuan's identity.

But she couldn't guess whether Xu Wenxian knew it.

After all, that was Xu Xi's child, his nephew.

In other words, Xu Wenxian should have recognized it.

The cool night was silent for a long time before Xu Wenxian said, "When I first saw him, I just thought he looked familiar. When I heard his last name was Shen, I thought he might be the son of an old friend. After returning to the capital, I heard some things and roughly guessed it."

"Then why don't you try to persuade him? Maybe he doesn't want this to happen either."

Xu Wenxian really knew it.

Xu Yuan's eyes moved slightly. If Xu Wenxian had recognized him, then could there be other people who had always known Shen Yichuan's identity but had never revealed it due to the Shen family's concerns?

It is unknown whether the wish is made.

"You are right, he is innocent. When the Xu family was in trouble, he was still a baby. None of this has anything to do with him. But Yuan'er, his father killed his mother. If he knew everything, how could he forgive himself?"

"The Shen family is also a family of scholars, and the children they teach will not be bad. You have to give him time to calm down and be depressed. He will figure it out, and I, I also need time to face him."

Xu Xi is his favorite sister.

How could he not love his sister's child?

But there are definitely many people in the capital who are suspicious of this matter. If he goes to find Shen Yichuan, Shen Yichuan's identity may be exposed...

Rather than recognizing each other, Xu Wenxian hopes that Shen Yichuan will never know his own life experience.

This way, you won’t get hurt.

"Father, I grew up under your lap and received your teachings, but Shen Yichuan didn't. He grew up in the Shen family. In his eyes, the Shen family is his family. He cares more about the attitude of the Shen family than his own parents."

Xu Yuan looked at Xu Wenxian and lowered his voice: "He is a good man. He bears the fate of the Shen family. Although I don't know the reason for this matter, and I don't know why it has been hidden for so many years and I have to tell him again, I can probably guess why. I also understand that you and the elders of the Shen family are all for the good of Shen Yichuan, but you can't use your self-righteous goodness to demand that Shen Yichuan must accept it."

People in the game don't understand.

Whether it is Shen Yijie or Xu Wenxian, they may feel that this is the best way for Shen Yichuan.

But she didn't think so.

To tell Shen Yichuan about his life experience would be to overturn the entire worldview he had built up over the past twenty years.

And when everything is revealed, all the charges will be borne by the most innocent Shen Yichuan.

Why must it be him?

Why is everything about him?

Perhaps, if Shen Yichuan had known at the time and was able to make the decision, he would have hoped to commit suicide with Xu Xi.

"Forget it." Xu Wenxian lowered his eyes. "Go find him tomorrow and tell him that no matter whether he chooses the Shen family or the Xu family in the end, he doesn't have to feel guilty. The Shen family will always be his home, and the same goes for the Xu family."

Perhaps this is the best arrangement.
