I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives

Wei Lang looked at Yang Hui with a cold face. Yang Hui was so frightened by his eyes that she didn't dare to look up.

"The Zhao family is full of loyal and brave people. The Chen family is a family of heroes and brave men bestowed by His Majesty himself. No one can look down on them, and no one can joke about the marriage of their children. Insulting heroes and brave men is a crime punishable by beheading."

When Yang Hui heard the words "behead in half", she gasped, took several steps back, and swallowed hard.

Wei Lang looked at Yang Xiu, and his cold words were like icy arrows piercing Yang Xiu's heart.

"Yi Yi saved the last bloodline of the Duke of Zhao's mansion during the war. This is her greatest contribution, but it will not be her only contribution in the future. She is not what you call a second-married woman, who can only live alone and be an unknown woman all her life. On the contrary..."

Wei Lang raised Chen Jia's hand and shook it with hers, just like she did in the pavilion. Chen Jia was brought back to her senses by his suddenly raised hand, and she looked at him with watery eyes.

Wei Lang smiled at Chen Jia and looked at Yang Xiu again, "Yi Yi is with me, her future will be smooth. She will not be content with the world at home just because she is a woman. She will be a big shot in the world because she is my woman, Wei Lang. Yang Xiu..."

Wei Lang's voice stretched out, and Yang Xiu felt that his proudest self-esteem was being tortured by Wei Lang's words today. He did not expect that Wei Lang not only supported Chen Jia's ventures outside, but was also willing to provide resources to support Chen Jia to move to a higher level.

Yang Xiu couldn't protect a woman like this, but Wei Lang could.

Such a comparison completely made Yang Xiu look inferior, so he became panicked and his self-esteem was also crushed.

"Perhaps, in your eyes, Yi Yi is just a clan woman who only knows how to take care of the harem. However, in my eyes, she is so tenacious and beautiful that she was able to bring Chen Jue out on the day Shouchun City was captured, evade the pursuit all the way, bring Chen Jue back to the capital with bumps and bruises, and help Chen Jue regain the title of Duke of Zhao's Mansion."

Wei Lang looked down at Chen Jia, as if he was saying love words, or as if he was promising their future. "Such a brave and resourceful woman who dares to act and take responsibility, I, Wei Lang, am favored by her. This is my blessing and the honor of the Hedong Wei family. I am willing to treat her like a national hero, respect her and love her, and help her soar into the sky and soar to 90,000 miles."

Chen Jia smiled. These words were really nice to hear. Even though they were love words, they were damn nice to hear.

"General Yang, forgive me for being blunt, but when your Yang family embezzled the money that the Duke of Zhao's mansion left for Yi Yi and A Jue to live on, you were no longer worthy of standing by Yi Yi's side. Since the Yang family hurt her so deeply, what reason do you have to stop us?"

Wei Lang's voice was not loud, but everyone around him understood his attitude. Yang Xiu took a deep breath in shame.

Wei Lang rolled his eyes at Yang Xiu and pulled Chen Jia forward. Yang Xiu stood there, staring blankly at his clasped hands. There was a tear in his eyes, and the tear that was about to fall told of his defeat.

Wei Lang actually had such thoughts about Chen Jia, and he completely lost.

Yang Xiu covered his chest with his hands, feeling a tearing pain. Why was he so emotional the day after the divorce? Why?!

Wei Lang and Chen Jia were sitting in the carriage. He still didn't let go of her hand. She looked at their clasped hands.

"Thank you for protecting me just now."

"That's not partiality."

"I know, but I still think it's a form of partiality."

Wei Lang smiled and rubbed the top of her head. "If you think it's partiality, you can think so."

"You said this in front of others, aren't you afraid that the elders of the Hedong Wei Clan will question you?"

"I know them better than you do. They know better why the Hedong Wei family rose to prominence. Denying the root of their rise would be equivalent to denying the legitimacy of the family. They would not do such a stupid thing."

"Are you going to pinch your vital points at home for my sake?"

Wei Lang tilted his head and smiled, a charming and elegant smile, like the summer sun melting the ice and snow all year round.

"You deserve it."

Chen Jia sighed, "I'm afraid that when you return home, there will be another bloody storm."

"I don't plan to go back to the family today."

"what?"

Wei Lang whispered, "Did you forget that I have something to say to Yang Xiu? He has been waiting for me for a whole day."

"Is it appropriate for you to talk to him in the evening?"

"At least let the elders in the family realize that their next clan leader is not someone who can be easily controlled."

"It seems that you are not all for me."

"A large part is for you, and a small part is for myself."

"That's honest enough."

The carriage jolted and she fell forward. He took her in his arms. She looked into his eyes, and only they could feel their fast beating hearts.

"Throwing yourself into my arms, is that a reward for me?"

Chen Jia sat up quickly from his arms awkwardly. She didn't say anything. He stroked her fingers and smiled brightly.

In front of the Duke Zhao's mansion, Wei Lang followed Chen Jiacai out of the carriage, and Chen Jue's carriage just happened to be in sight.

Chen Jue looked at the intimate way Wei Lang helped Chen Jia get off the carriage. Although he felt sad inside, he still kept smiling.

He remembered what his sister said, that before he grew stronger, he had no choice but to keep a low profile.

"Brother Lang, what a coincidence, you just came back from shopping?"

"It's so hot, I came to your house to ask for a glass of water and to discuss something with you."

"Ah? Brother Lang, just give the order directly. It's too polite for you to say that."

Wei Lang was very satisfied that Chen Jue realized his position, and his attitude improved a lot. "I invite Yang Xiu to come to your place tonight."

"Yang Xiu?!"

Chen Jue looked at Chen Jia in astonishment. Was there something wrong with his ears? Why did he let his ex-brother-in-law come to his house?

"He was scolded in front of your door this morning, and came to your house to apologize in the evening, so that everyone knows that the Yang family can only be humble in front of the Zhaoguo Mansion. What's the problem?"

“No, Brother Lang is right. The Yang family really needs to be warned so that they don’t lose track of their identities.”

Wei Lang made a gesture, as if Duke Zhao's Mansion was his home, and Chen Jue followed Wei Lang into the hall. Chen Jia could only follow beside him because Wei Lang refused to let go of their clasped hands.

"There is some clue about the old Duke. According to the clues, the fall of Shouchun City is related to Jia Mo and Sima Fei'er from the Honglu Temple. Jia Mo is the head of Sima Fei'er's family. I need to test Yang Xiu indirectly to see how much Yang Xiu knows about Sima Fei'er's last name Jia and her connection with the Jia family."

"My father was murdered by Sima Fei'er and Jia Mo?!"

Chen Jue suddenly raised his voice, and Chen Jia coughed lightly. Chen Jue knew that he had lost his composure and immediately changed his tone.

"I'm sorry, Brother Lang. I lost my composure when I heard about my father. Did you just say Sima Fei'er killed my father?"

"Yes, but the evidence is insufficient. I have to trick Yang Xiu to see how much he knows."

"I understand. I'll go and ask him right away."

"No need. I asked him to come to Zhaoguogong Mansion to work the night shift. The order has just been passed to Yang Mansion."

"Brother Lang, it's you after all. You even make it sound so righteous to work the night shift."

"He has done wrong to Yi Yi. I have to deal with him openly and secretly."

Chen Jia looked at Wei Lang's profile, and she suddenly realized that he was actually petty and all men were stingy.
