Yu Gang shook his head.

Yu Wan thought for a while. “Then the little fox is sick?”

Yu Gang shook his head again.

!!

Yu Wan’s almond-shaped eyes widened. “Then why?”

Yu Gang sighed. “Aiya, Young Madam, go in and take a look yourself.”

Actually, it was more reasonable to look for Young Master for such a matter, but Yu Gang was too uncertain about Young Master’s personality. He felt that the situation would become out of control when Young Master caused trouble.

As the two of them spoke, they entered Helian Beiming’s courtyard. Yu Wan had just walked to the porch when he stopped. He gestured for Yu Wan to go ahead. Yu Wan took a deep breath and entered the room fearlessly!

Helian Beiming’s current situation was not suitable for meeting guests, but there was an unfamiliar man sitting in front of his bed.

The man was about twenty years old and had a handsome face with resolute facial features. He had bronze skin and a burly and tall figure. He exuded an aura of steel. His face looked a little like the Helian brothers that Yu Wan had seen before. Yu Wan immediately guessed his identity—the eldest grandson of the West Manor, Helian Feng.

Wasn’t Helian Feng stationed in the West City? Why did he suddenly return to the Capital?

Helian Beiming sat at the head of the bed with his back against the thick cushion. His complexion, which he had painstakingly nurtured, had turned pale again because he was seeing guests.

Yu Wan’s heart ached for her uncle, who was not related to her at all, and for the Red Lingzhi that Yan Jiuchao had given up. Even divine medicine could not withstand such torture.

“Uncle.” Yu Wan entered the room.

The two men in the room looked at her.

Yu Wan changed back into women’s clothes in the carriage. At this moment, she was wearing a lake-blue dress that was not luxurious but did not lose its etiquette. She was wearing a translucent white gauze robe outside. She was spiritual, beautiful, and had a calm temperament. If she did not have a married woman’s hairstyle, people would probably think that she was an unmarried young lady.

Helian Feng’s gaze landed on her, and a trace of shock flashed across his eyes.

A gentleness appeared in Helian Beiming’s eyes. “Ah Wan is here. This is your second brother, Helian Feng. Feng’er, this is your sister-in-law.”

In terms of age, Yu Wan was two to three years younger than Helian Feng. She was called that because of Yan Jiuchao. Yu Wan greeted Helian Feng. “Second Brother.”

Helian Feng stood up and bowed. “Sister-in-law.”

“Have a seat,” Helian Beiming said.

Yu Wan sat on another small stool in front of the bed. She was not in a hurry to exchange pleasantries with Helian Feng. Instead, she asked Helian Beiming, “How do you feel, Uncle?”

“Much better,” Helian Beiming said.

It would be strange if he was much better. His face was so pale. At the thought of this, Yu Wan could not help but glare at Helian Feng. Didn’t he see that he was so sick? He even asked him to sit up and entertain him. He was really shameless!

“Ahem!” Helian Feng cleared his throat uncomfortably.

Yu Wan asked, “I wonder when Second Brother had arrived home?”

Helian Feng said seriously, “I just arrived today. I heard that Uncle was injured, so I came to see him.”

Yu Wan smiled faintly. “Thank you for your trouble, Second Brother. Have you seen Old Madam?”

“Just about to,” Helian Feng said.

Yu Wan smiled. “Coincidentally, I also want to greet Old Madam. I’ll go with Second Brother and let Uncle rest for a while.”

Helian Feng hesitated.

Helian Beiming said to Yu Wan, “Feng’er and I were just talking about paying respects to our ancestors.”

“Tribute to our ancestors?” Yu Wan paused.

Yu Wan had not been in the Helian family for long, so she did not know that the Helian family had a rule of paying respects to their ancestors. In Lotus Flower Village, the grave of a country bumpkin was erected behind the hill. During the New Year or the holidays, they could just go to the grave and burn incense. However, there was no such thing as paying respects to their ancestors. After marrying into the Young Master Manor, Yan Jiuchao’s ancestors were all buried in the imperial mausoleum, so it had nothing to do with her.

Therefore, Yu Wan was quite new to hearing this.

The specific matters of paying respects to the ancestors were handled by the elders, so there was no need for the Divine General Manor to spend much effort. It was precisely because of this that Helian Beiming, who was the head of the family, did not think of it immediately.

In the past, the entire family had to go. Helian Beiming would burn the first incense stick. When Helian Sheng was still the eldest young master of the manor, he would burn a second incense stick. After he was expelled from the family, Helian Qi took over his position.

Now that Helian Qi was no longer around, the original plan was for Helian Feng to take over. However, after Helian Beiming was assassinated, this arrangement changed. Helian Beiming was seriously injured and could not go.

“Let Second Uncle offer the first incense stick. You follow Second Uncle and let Chao’er stay in the manor with me,” Helian Beiming said.

Let the Old Master of the West Manor to offer the first incense stick, and Helian Feng to offer the second incense stick. Yan Jiuchao was not a real young master, so he naturally could not go to the ancestral hall. Even if he wanted to go, he could not enter the ancestral hall without going on the genealogy.

Yu Wan was unhappy. No matter how stupid she was, she would still hear the meaning of offering the first and second incense sticks. Wasn’t this something that only the head of the family and the heir were qualified to do? It wasn’t like the East Manor really didn’t have an heir. Why should they give it to the West Manor?

“My grandfather… is injured. He can’t go,” Helian Feng said sadly.

Helian Beiming was stunned. “Second Uncle is injured? What happened?”

Yu Wan really wanted to hammer this fellow to death! The news that they had painstakingly hidden was so easily exposed.

Helian Feng was puzzled. “Uncle doesn’t know yet? An assassin infiltrated the manor to harm Big Brother, but he accidentally injured Grandpa.”

Helian Beiming’s eyes darkened. “Yu Gang.”

Yu Gang’s eyes flickered. “I-I wanted to say but I didn’t have a chance, right? Every time you don’t wake up for long, you fall asleep.”

Helian Beiming glanced at Yu Gang coldly, turned around, and sighed. He said to his nephew, “Follow the rules.”

According to the rules, it should be Helian Feng who offer the incense.

Helian Feng hesitated. “Big Brother…”

Helian Beiming said, “Your brother’s health isn’t good, and it’s not suitable for him to travel long distances. Besides, he just returned to the manor and didn’t have time to go on the genealogy.”

“Yes, I understand.” Helian Feng cupped his hands and bowed. After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Helian Beiming, he turned around and left the courtyard.

With no one else around, Helian Beiming’s expression darkened. He looked at Yu Wan and Yu Gang, who were clearly hiding something, and said, “Tell me honestly, why did an assassin come to the manor?”

With the defense of the Helian Manor, what assassin could easily enter? He even stabbed the Old Master of the West Manor? Where did the guards in the manor go? Are they all dead?

Yu Gang broke out in cold sweat and said, “An assassin came… He was with the assassin who assassinated you that night. Perhaps he wanted to capture the Young Master to threaten you, but the Second Old Master was also there, so… he was injured…”

The version circulating in the manor was that the Second Old Master had taken the knife for Yan Jiuchao, but since Helian Feng did not say so, Yu Gang did not say so either. Helian Beiming’s eyes were sharp. Yu Gang was so frightened that he wanted to run out.

Yu Wan quickly tried to smooth things over. “Uncle, don’t worry about these things. We’ll resolve it. Your top priority is to recover from your injuries as soon as possible. Also, do you want to consider the matter of paying respects to your ancestors?”

“Consider what?” Helian Beiming asked.

Yu Wan said seriously, “Let the people from the East Manor offer incense!” How could she let those bastards from the West Manor benefit!!!

It was not that Helian Beiming did not want the Helian family’s inheritance rights to continue in the eldest branch, but this was the situation. He lowered his eyes and sighed. “I can’t go, and Chao’er can’t go either.”

Helian Sheng, who had been expelled from the family, could not go either.

On the other hand, after Helian Feng left the courtyard, he first went to Wutong Courtyard to visit the Old Madam. Then, he returned to the West Manor to visit the seriously injured Second Old Master.

The Second Old Master was paralyzed from a stroke. Not only was he unable to speak and write with his hands, but he was even worried that he would choke on his breath. He was half-dead from Yan Jiuchao’s stab. He hated Yan Jiuchao and also hated Helian Beiming, who had led Yan Jiuchao into a wolf’s den.

“Grandpa, I went to see Uncle just now. Uncle asked me to offer incense. I want Yu’er to offer this second incense.”

Upon hearing his eldest grandson’s words, the Second Old Master’s turbid eyes suddenly lit up. Ha, I knew it! I knew it would be like this! So what if he couldn’t offer incense? Wasn’t it still his grandson’s turn? The position of the family head was in the West Manor! The entire Helian family belonged to the West Manor!

When his precious grandson became the head of the family, he would use all the sacrificial soldiers of the Helian family to chase out everyone from the East Manor! He still wanted to strangle Yan Jiuchao to death! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!

Nothing could stop his grandson from inheriting the Helian family! Not even Helian Beiming! Unless the child who had fallen off the cliff came back to life—

But how was that possible? That child was already dead! Hahaha! Hahahahaha! The Helian family was his!

The moon was dark and the wind was strong. A carriage stopped outside a luxurious mansion. The coachman hired halfway said, “Master, Madam, we’re here.”

The sickly Little Sly Jiang yawned. Yu Shaoqing helped her slowly alight from the carriage.
