Feeling her face turning pale, Zhu Feng looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"..."
Nan Yan lowered her head and bit her lower lip lightly.
After hesitating for a while, he said softly, "Your Majesty, why do you ask this?"
Zhu Feng reached out and grabbed her fingertips, and gently pulled her in front of him, and said, "You forgot what I said, that you want to be registered as a concubine?"
"..."
"It's not a trivial matter to register a concubine. If you want to choose an auspicious time in advance, you have to let the Ministry of Rites make preparations first. Therefore, I have already written to the queen to prepare."
"..."
"In the palace, I need your family tree."
"..."
"But I heard you—"
Speaking of this, he didn't continue, because he felt that her slender fingertips, which were still warm, suddenly became cold at this moment.
Moreover, his face was even paler.
Zhu Feng looked at her and said, "What's wrong?"
"..."
Nanyan's voice trembled slightly: "Your servant, your mother... your servant, there is no mother."
After saying this, her eyes turned red all of a sudden.
Zhu Feng looked at her seriously.
No one would be without a mother.
According to the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, the current wife of the Si family, Gu Tingchun, is her mother.
But her biological mother, it seems, is indeed the same as the previous investigation, and no one knows who it is.
Not even a pass.
Zhu Feng suddenly understood what she said before that she had been bullied at home since she was a child and suffered a lot of grievances. If it was just a child born to a concubine, the mistress would still take care of it. However, she is indeed—
unknown origins.
However, this does have a big problem.
Who is her mother
According to the verified information, it was Si Zhongwen who brought her back to the Si family when she was still a baby, but he never revealed the secret.
As the minister of Honglu Temple, Si Zhongwen is fully qualified to take many concubines, and he doesn't have to hide them outside, so it seems a bit strange.
Zhu Feng frowned, and originally wanted to ask.
But when she looked up, she saw Nan Yan's eyes were red, her head was lowered, trembling slightly, and she felt as if someone had taken the tip of her heart out.
If you want to ask any more questions, you can't ask them anymore.
He stretched out his hand, caressed her face, and said softly: "You have been wronged a lot since you were young?"
"..."
Nan Yan still wanted to hold back.
In fact, it has been holding back for so many years.
However, as soon as he heard his low, gentle words, the grievances in his heart gushed out like a gate.
Tears fell down all of a sudden.
"They... called me, said I was—a bastard..."
"..."
"Since I was a child, I have been said to be a wild species..."
"..."
Zhu Feng couldn't help but gritted his teeth.
Even if he knew, there was a reason for the incident, but seeing her aggrieved like this—
What happens for a reason
He just wants to crush those people into scum!
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
Nanyan was sobbing, the tears kept rolling down, soaked his clothes, and soon stained his body.
Zhu Feng said in a deep voice: "From now on, no one will dare to scold you like this again."
"..."
"Whoever dares to scold you like this again, I will cut off his tongue and tear his mouth!"
As he spoke, he lowered his head, looked at the aggrieved little face, and said: "Listen, from now on you will be my woman, no matter what your origin or family background is, you don't need to be afraid."
Nan Yan sobbed and looked up at him: "Why?"
Zhu Feng said word by word: "Zhen, is your family background!"
