The Marquis Is Innocent

Chapter 65:

Chapter 65:

When she heard these words come out of Mrs. Xus mouth, Xiao Qiao subconsciously lowered her eyes.

She knew this should only be a lament from Mrs. Xu for that scene just now.

But she suddenly did not dare to look at Wei Shao or even Wei Yans expression.

Not to mention dared to look at Mrs. Xus one eye that showed a joyful color at this moment.

Although, until this moment, she remained unclear about what exactly happened between the two brothers, Wei Shao and Wei Yan.

But she knew these two people must be sick in their hearts, and the disease was severe. And the reason was probably related to her.

Honestly, even if Wei Yan did have thoughts about her that he shouldnt have and then angered Wei Shao, she didnt feel it was her fault. That night, Wei Shao humiliated her, but she was innocent.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt panic.

It was not because she was proud of her face but because she was afraid.

The words of Mrs. Xu just now suddenly reminded her.

If, in case, these two brothers, surnamed Wei, turned against each other because of her, and the matter reached Mrs. Xu, what would Mrs. Xu think of her? How could she continue to gain a foothold in the Wei family?

To put it in a more pretentious way, from the first time she married into the Wei family on thin ice and came to see Mrs. Xu in Yuyang, Mrs. Xu had treated her well. How would she feel if she knew the two brothers were at odds with each other because of her?New novel chapters are published on

Brothers are like hands and feet, and women are like clothes. This ancient saying should have been despised and spat on.

But now she wished for it. She would rather have Wei Shao see her as a piece of clothing than have Mrs. Xu misunderstand or feel sad and upset because of it. If Wei Shao made things worse for her because another man was interested in her, even if that man was his brother, she couldnt think of anything else to say except for he was brainless.

In the past two days, about this matter, she felt aggrieved by the erratic and bad treatment shown by Wei Shao and even accumulated anger in her heart.

But suddenly, in this instant, her mind cleared up.

If not handled properly, the severity of the matter would lead to consequences she could not afford.

Between the thoughts, Xiao Qiao quickly raised her eyes and looked at Wei Shao.

She hoped he could see her eyes at this moment.

But at this moment, Wei Shao did not look at her.

He looked at Mrs. Xu beside her flatly, looking respectful and calm.

He said, Grandmother has worked hard early in the morning. I will send you back to the city.

There will be a big feast for Lu Li Conference. The camp feast in the four barracks of the east, west, north, and south gates will begin and probably will not disperse until late at night.

Mrs. Xu knew he and Wei Yan would be busy for the rest of the day, so she didnt want the two brothers to send her back. Like in the morning, the two of them and many guardians left the Green Dragon Gate to see each other off.

Qiao Ci was also standing outside with the crowd. The wound on his arm was wrapped, and he looked fine.

Xiao Qiao put her heart down. She saw him looking at her through the wall of people and nodded slightly toward him.

Mrs. Xu saw Qiao Ci and beckoned him over. The crowd made way for him.

Mrs. Xu asked him about his injuries.

Qiao Ci bowed: I am fine. Thank you for your care, Grandmother.

Mrs. Xu said, I saw it all. Heroes are born young. As for being neutral and pure, it is even rarer. She turned to Xiao Qiao, Your brother is good, which shows the familys spirit.

The rest of the group echoed.

Qiao Cis handsome face reddened slightly, showing a coy look, and bowing again, saying respectfully, I am ashamed to accept your praise, Grandmother.

Mrs. Xu nodded with a smile.

Xiao Qiao thanked Mrs. Xu, and together with Mrs. Zhu, they assisted her to the carriage.

Xiao Qiao could not say much to him alone on such an occasion.

When she bent down to get into the carriage, she turned around and looked at Wei Shao again. This time she saw he was also looking at her.

They looked at each other, and she entered the carriage.

She decided to talk to him in the evening when he returned.

On the way back, Xiao Qiao thought to herself.

In the distance, the night sky in the west slowly rises a round of faint winding moon. The wilderness remained quiet in all directions. Only the grass at the foot was blown by the night breeze, emitting a slight rustling sound.

Wei Shao dismounted from his horse and stood at the edge of the wilderness. His back was unmoved.

Wei Yan also followed and got off his horse, stopped behind him for a moment, walked towards him, and said, Second brother asked me to come here for

Wei Yan did not finish his words. Wei Shao suddenly turned around, clenched his fist, and viciously swung toward his face.

Wei Yan was caught off guard. His face punched hard, blood gushed out from his nose, and his whole body fell backward to the ground. His ears buzzed for a while and slowly recovered.

He opened his eyes and saw Wei Shao kneeling on one knee in front of him. His face was full of anger, gritting his teeth and saying: I have always regarded you as my elder brother, and you are indeed my elder brother. There are many women in the world. Why do you have to be disrespectful to her?

Wei Yan closed his eyes and raised his hand to wipe away the blood gushed from his nose.

Wei Shao sneered: I thought about it all day and finally figured it out a bit. Although you and I are brothers, you should be discontent with me, right? This is why I called you out. What do you have to say? Say it! If you want to fight, then lets fight!

He stared at Wei Yan.

They stared at each other. Wei Yans breathing gradually became heavy, and suddenly roared. Just as Wei Shao hit him earlier, his fist swung toward Wei Shao.

Wei Shao knocked to the ground, wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth, leaped up, and pounced like a tiger toward Wei Yan.

At first, the two men went back and forth, but in the end, it became an angry scuffle with no mercy, and soon each was injured.

Wei Yan pinned down Wei Shao. His abdomen heavily ate two of his punches and his lungs were painful as they were displaced. He roared, turned over, and clipped Wei Yans hands behind his back, firmly pinned under his body.

They have been fighting for a long time. The two are panting like cattle and exhausted.

But at this moment, Wei Yan felt the painful sensation of his arms folded by him on the verge of breaking bones.

Wei Shaos eyes are red. He bent his elbow, smashing towards Wei Yans temple heavily, but suddenly halted and stopped at a distance of just one inch above the spot.

Wei Yan sensed the harsh killing aura from Wei Shao but could not avoid it. He was held in place by Wei Shao and felt the strength in his body slowly draining away with the pain.

He smelled the scent of death approaching.

But strangely, at this moment, he did not have any fear. Instead, he felt unusually calm inside, relieved.

He closed his eyes and waited to receive the final strike with great anger from his brother, who was also his sovereign lord.

But the strike did not come as expected.

He opened his eyes. He saw Wei Shao slowly withdraw his arm and suddenly let go of him.

He immediately flung himself to the ground.

This matter is closed, and I will not mention it or worry about it again. I mean what I say. Twenty years of brotherhood, whether or not you want to do it again in the future is all up to you.

Wei Shao breathed heavily, stood up, and turned to leave.

His steps were a bit hobbled at first, but the more he walked, the faster he went and finally came to the horses. He turned on his horse and went away. His figure soon disappeared at the end of the wilderness.

Wei Yan lay on top of the grass, looking at the dark blue night sky decorated with stars overhead. Motionless.

After returning home during the day, Xiao Qiao waits for Wei Shao to return.

She knew he was busy today, and even if he came back, he would be very late.

To her surprise, he came back just before midnight.

Even more surprising, he came back wounded. The corners of his forehead and lips broke. The blood flowing out had dried up a bit, and the back of his hand was also wounded. As for his body, she hadnt noticed it yet.

Xiao Qiao had never seen him in such a sorry state. She startled. She hurriedly went to him and asked, What happened to you? How can you look like this?

Wei Shao looked at her steadily and did not speak for a moment. His eyes were strange.

Xiao Qiao panicked at his look. She settled down and took another step toward him: Who beat you up like this?

Wei Shao finally said: He beat me up.

A sentence without a head. Xiao Qiao froze and understood. Her heart suddenly went cold.

However, I beat him up even worse.

Wei Shao faintly smiled, looked at her, and said slowly.
