Ji Lan looked at Han Yan's face: "Miss, you don't like King Xuanqing? But the prince is one of the best in the capital..."

Before she finished speaking, Han Yan glanced at her and shook her head helplessly: "Don't say whether you like it or not, the emperor has approved it. Now, if you don't want to marry, you have to get married."

I feel a little disappointed in my heart. My marriage has really been decided like this. It seems to be extremely hasty, but I don't have the expectation and shyness of marrying Wei Rufeng in my previous life.

After all, that glass of poisonous wine still made her lose a lot of things.

Shu Hong walked in: "Miss, things over there have been arranged."

Han Yan stood up and looked like he couldn't wait a moment: "We are leaving the house now."

The truth about what happened on the day he was born can finally be revealed.

The only living maid is called Abi. She was one of the dowry maids of Prince Han Yanniang back then. The most outstanding thing is her good embroidery skills. Wang is very kind and friendly, and she also gets along well with several of her maids. But this Abi was expelled from the house on the night Han Yan was born. Unfortunately for her, she was so loyal that she couldn't even take a look at the born lady.

Han Yan was silent all the way in the carriage. He was extremely excited, but he kept his sense to keep himself awake. Don't be impulsive, otherwise you will lose your judgment. Today, she must let herself be an outsider and look at every word that Abi says. Even if she is her mother's personal maid, even if Han Yan believes that there is a hidden secret, to Han Yan, this Abi is just a stranger. . You cannot rely on those close to you, but too much trust in strangers can be fatal.

The road in the north of the city was full of rocks and very bumpy, and the carriage was also extremely bumpy. After driving for about half an hour, a dilapidated village appeared in front of them. Ji Lan Fu Hanyan got off the carriage, Shu Hong led the way, and the coachman was in front of him. Waiting outside. Shu Hong walked to the last house next to the road and locked the door.

Judging from the appearance alone, it was an extremely dilapidated house, made only of cheap adobe bricks. The roof was made of sparse thatch, and the fence outside was in disrepair. Han Yan's heart moved. This Abi seemed to be living in a very poor life.

After a while, the door slowly opened. An old woman hunched over and looked at them carefully with squinted cloudy eyes.

Ji Lan smiled at the old woman and said, "Mother-in-law, we have something to ask you for."

The old lady looked at them warily and hesitated for a long time before opening the door and letting them in.

The inside of the house is more dilapidated than the outside, with traces of dirt everywhere, the broken walls are in disrepair, and the wind is pouring in from the outside, making it impossible to keep out the cold. The table was missing a leg, and a large pot on the outside had a light layer of dust floating inside, as if it had rarely been used.

In the dead of winter, there was no fire in the house, and there was only a thin quilt on the bed. This was an old man living alone. Han Yan was attracted by the things in the basket beside the bed. When she picked it up, she saw that it was a beautifully embroidered handkerchief embroidered piece by piece. The embroidery patterns are exquisite, the colors are bright, and the animals are lifelike. It is really a work of art.

Han Yan turned around, looked at the old woman and said, "Mother-in-law, do you know a girl named Abi?"

When the woman heard Han Yan's words, she shuddered and slowly raised her head, her face turned pale.

Seeing her like this, Han Yan smiled and said, "I came to see her because of some old things."

Seeing that the old woman didn't answer, Ji Lan walked up to Han Yan and yelled: "I know you are Abi, and this is the madam's daughter, young lady."

The woman was startled. She raised her head and looked at Han Yan carefully, and suddenly knelt down. Han Yan was about to reach out to help her, but she saw her mouth kept saying "Ah", and two The skinny hands were waving wildly.

Han Yan was stunned and quickly looked at her mouth. She saw that the open mouth was full of confusion. Her tongue had been uprooted. She was mute!

Shu Hong and Ji Lan obviously didn't expect it. Han Yan knelt down and helped her up: "Abi?"

The woman nodded hastily.

Han Yan only felt sad. Although his mother-in-law, the Wang family, had not had a good life in recent years and was often bullied by Aunt Mei and the others, Zhuang Shiyang could not let them live too ugly and have poor food and clothing. But it's passable. Therefore, my mother is just like those noble ladies, and her appearance is still good. However, this mother's former personal maid, Abi, must not be much older than my mother. She is so old that she looks like an old woman in her seventies or eighties. generally.

Her life must have been extremely difficult.

Han Yan thought for a while and then said: "Since you can't speak, you only need to gesture. When Ji Lan says what he means, if it is right, you will nod. If it is wrong, shake your head."

The woman nodded.

Han Yan said: "Who pulled out your tongue?"

Ji Lan and Shu Hong were both startled. They thought that the first question Han Yan asked must be about their own life experience, but they didn't expect that what she asked about was Abi's tongue.

When Abi heard this, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes. She just drew a few strokes with both hands, as if making a condescending gesture, and Ji Lan said, "Master?"

Abi nodded.

Han Yan asked: "Why did he pull out your tongue?"

Abi then stretched out her hand, trying to get the hairpin on Han Yan's head. Ji Lan glanced at Han Yan and said, "Did you take Madam's hairpin?"

Abi nodded immediately again.

Han Yan said in a deep voice: "Then, what is the real reason?"

Abi suddenly looked at Han Yan, with unbearable surprise in her eyes.

Han Yan said: "I just took the hairpin, so I won't be punished so severely. I'm just afraid that you will go out and say nonsense. I guess my mother must have begged me for mercy at that time. Otherwise, you wouldn't have just lost one tongue." , I'm afraid I won't even be able to survive." She looked calm, as if she had seen through everything: "What is the real reason why I want to kill people and silence them? What happened on the night I was born?"

Abi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly kowtowed desperately to Han Yan. Her body was extremely old, and after a while, there were stains of blood on the ground.

Han Yan turned a blind eye and said calmly: "You don't want to say it, it's just because you are worried about something. But back then, my mother and you were brothers and sisters, so she did not hesitate to offend the master and plead for you. The life she left behind actually asked you to do something for her. Isn’t that okay too?”

Seeing Abi's uncertain expression, Han Yan added: "Now my concubine is very ambitious. I'm afraid you don't know that my mother had a younger brother after she gave birth to me. He is my mother's heartthrob, but now my mother has a younger brother." My concubine wanted to kill my younger brother, but my father has always been indifferent to me, which has hurt my younger brother, and he just sat back and ignored me. And I just want to know why my father treated me like this." She Looking at Abi, her eyes were extremely sharp, and she said slowly and slowly: "Is it really because I am not the master's biological daughter?"
