Chapter 158 "So, the Yan family's blood-soaked buns...are they delicious?"
"Aunt Yan, you misunderstood. What happened back then had nothing to do with the royal family!"
But she didn't believe a word of it.
"You are a member of the royal family, so of course you would say that!"
Shen Changle was somewhat helpless and shook his head.
"You said it yourself. We are the royal family. Since ancient times, imperial power has been above all else. If the late emperor really wanted your family's lives, why did he just dismiss them from their posts? Why not just execute the entire family?"
"That's because you don't have a suitable crime!"
……
Shen Changle knew that she had been completely brainwashed by Wen Zhixue, and now she would not listen to anything he said to her.
He immediately used his ultimate move.
"Baizhi, go and bring Mr. Yan over here."
Hearing this, Yan Lan became visibly nervous.
"You caught my nephew? What do you want me to do? Don't hurt my nephew!"
When Shen Changle saw this, he knew that Yan Lan still cared about his nephew very much.
With a smile, he asked:
"Aunt Yan hasn't met your nephew yet, right?"
"so what!"
When she heard Shen Changle ask this, she suddenly remembered:
The Prime Minister said that he had been sending people to secretly protect Zijing, and they couldn't catch him easily!
Then he became cautious again and said suspiciously:
"The Prime Minister shows me my nephew's portrait every month. Don't think you can deceive me with just a stranger!"
Shen Changle smiled helplessly.
He supported his injured shoulder and sat down at the table.
"Just you know what he looks like."
As soon as he finished speaking, Baizhi brought his men back.
Report outside the door.
"Your Highness, Mr. Yan has arrived."
"Well, come in."
Led by Bai Zhi, Yan Zijing leaned over and went inside.
"See Your Highness the Princess."
When Yan Lan raised her eyes, she was stunned.
It really looks like...
Zijing looks more like his father than in the painting!
She couldn't move her limbs and her vision was blurred.
Seeing her stunned, Shen Changle curled the corners of his lips slightly.
Introducing them to the two of them:
"Mr. Yan, this is your aunt, Yan Lan."
aunt?
Yan Zijing was extremely surprised and turned his head hesitantly.
The moment they looked at each other, tears suddenly fell from the corners of Yan Lan's eyes.
"Zi Jing..."
Yan Zijing was still suspicious.
"Your Highness, you don't know that I should have an aunt, but..."
He hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.
"But not long after I was born, my aunt passed away."
Shen Changle looked at him and shook his head firmly.
"No, Mr. Yan, she is indeed your aunt."
Yan Zijing said no more and turned to look at Yan Lan.
Yan Lan wanted to stand up and walk closer to look at him, but she couldn't...
So many years...
If it weren't for him, it would have been for revenge!
She had already left with her father and brother!
How could he survive till now?
"Zi Jing... I, I really am Yan Lan..."
"you……"
Seeing that she admitted it herself, Yan Zijing couldn't help but take a step back.
"You, why... do you have any evidence?"
He spoke incoherently and made no sense.
Seeing him so alert, Yan Lan smiled with relief even though tears were in the corners of her eyes.
"Your father's name is Yan Jing, your mother's name is Kang Tingxuan, you were born in your maternal grandparents' home and grew up in Linyi County.
Your maternal grandfather passed away when you were three, and your grandmother passed away when you were ten. You followed your uncle to Yuanyang, passed the imperial examination at sixteen, and became a private school teacher at seventeen...
Zijing, for so many years, aunt has been following your news!"
Her tears couldn't stop flowing and her voice was choked with sobs.
"I have always been looking forward to the day when I will see you, but I dare not go to see you...
The Prime Minister is right. If revenge fails, then acknowledging you would only implicate you. It won't be too late to see you again when revenge succeeds."
Yan Zijing originally believed it, but when he heard her words, he was moved.
Seeing that she was actually on the Prime Minister's side, he immediately frowned and took another half step back.
"What did you say? You said 'the Prime Minister is right'? You... no, you are not my aunt!"
Yan Lan was surprised by his reaction.
I wanted to stand up and explain to him, but I couldn't even stand up.
He looked at Shen Changle anxiously.
Shen Changle then signaled Bai Zhi to untie the acupoints for her.
After the acupoints were unblocked, Yan Lan let out a sigh of relief and slumped down on the bed.
He massaged the painful acupuncture points, stood up and walked quickly towards Yan Zijing.
"Zijing, why don't you believe that I am your aunt?"
Yan Zijing shook his head slowly.
"My aunt...why would she stand on the side of the enemy who destroyed our family?"
He asked back, and the resentment in his eyes grew when he mentioned the study of literature and politics.
"If he hadn't ruined the entire Yan family for his own selfish desires, how could I have been left alone and living under someone else's roof since I was a child?"
After all, my uncle is not my biological father.
When my grandmother was alive, it felt better to be an outsider...
After his grandmother passed away, he was basically just a tenant in the Kang family!
You can’t eat at the table, you can’t walk in front of people, and you can’t even go in or out through the main door!
The reason for all this is the Prime Minister's literary studies!
"Zijing, you misunderstood the Prime Minister..."
Yan Lan tried to explain to him and walked forward to hold his arm.
"Zi Jing, it wasn't the Prime Minister who did that. He even arrived in time to save me...
For so many years, he, he has been helping us find our enemies. Zijing, it was the royal family who did it..."
Yan Zijing looked at her self-deception and shook her hand away.
"Do you think it's possible? If he didn't do it, how could he have arrived in time and saved you?
The only one who could do this is the murderer!"
Yan Zijing's angry shout made her feel like she was struck by lightning.
For so many years, even though she had closed her eyes and ears, she had her doubts...
But, she could only force herself to believe that the murderer was not him!
otherwise……
How could she, who had pledged allegiance to her enemy, have the face to go see her parents, brother and sister-in-law?
Thinking of this, she strengthened her faith.
Repeating in my mind over and over again:
He is not the murderer!
The murderer can't be Wen Zhixue!
She brainwashed herself again and again.
He grabbed Yan Zijing's sleeve tightly and looked at Shen Changle warily.
"No, Zijing, you were deceived by them. You were mesmerized by the beauty of that woman!
Zijing, think about it, if it weren't for the Prime Minister's protection over the years, how could you and I be alive today?
If the Prime Minister was really the murderer, wouldn't he have killed you long ago?"
Yan Zijing was speechless.
Once upon a time, his grandmother told him...
The Yan family was wiped out because of his aunt, but he still didn't believe it!
But now, she appeared in front of him, all dressed in gold and silver, and kept speaking well of Wen Zhixue...
How could he defend her?
Chuckling and taking a half step back, he looked at her with disdain, his cold words piercing her soul.
"So, is it easy to be Wen Zhixue's concubine? Is his money easy to use? Are the Yan family's blood-soaked buns... delicious?"
Hearing this, Yan Lan felt a chill down her spine and her whole body was frozen.
She stood there with her empty hands outstretched, staring in amazement at the direction he left.
I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time, and I couldn't move...
