Chapter 706: Chapter 706: Truth and Falsehood
“Xin’er knelt on the ground and begged , she said, she was already carrying Zhao Jiong’s flesh and blood, alive, she wanted to live with Zhao Jiong; dead, she wanted to die with her child and Zhao Jiong! She bitterly pleaded with , asking to let her and the child in her stomach have a chance to live for our past relationship…”
As he spoke, his complexion grew worse.
“Back then, it was Xin’er who sacrificed herself and gave herself to that bastard Zhao Jiong! What I owe her, I won’t be able to pay off in this lifeti… When I thought about this, I compromised! I made Qiulong Mountain a forbidden area, as long as Zhao Jiong didn’t leave Qiulong Mountain, he could live a peaceful life.”
So, this is the real hidden secret of Heilong Mountain! No wonder no one ntioned what happened on Heilong Mountain all those years ago. This kind of scandal, even that forr Crown Prince Zhao Jiong probably had no face to talk about!
Young Master Di resud his seat and covered his forehead with both hands.
“I thought it would be a lifeti apart. But, to my surprise, 12 years later, I suddenly received a letter from Xin’er! The letter only had a few words written in blood: ‘Yuan Lang, it’s !’ I could recognize Xin’er’s handwriting even if it had turned to ash, let alone in such bloody words. Without hesitation, I led my troops to Qiulong Mountain.”
His Majesty’s original na was Zhao Wu, it seems that the two characters, Yuan Lang, were Young Master Di’s courtesy na.
“When I saw Xin’er again, I could hardly recognize her. The pregnant woman in front of was thin, haggard, and completely unrecognizable from the talented Xin’er of the past. It was only at that mont that I understood Xin’er’s sufferings – it turned out that Zhao Jiong had long since gone mad!”
“Not only did he go mad, but he also abused Xin’er in various ways, causing her to suffer multiple miscarriages, and due to his delusions from his insanity, he directly killed two children that Xin’er had given birth to! And Xin’er was pregnant again at the ti, she sent a desperate ssage to , all for the sake of saving the child in her womb.”
Liu Sisi had no doubt that Zhao Jiong would kill people when he went mad. If she hadn’t been lucky herself, she would have died along with her unborn child on Heilong Mountain!
As for Xin’er leaving Heilong Mountain at that ti, pregnant, it had now been confird by Young Master Di’s words.
“When I arrived, Zhao Jiong was in a frenzy and wanted to kill Xin’er, but ended up hurting the child in her womb. I took Xin’er away from Qiulong Mountain, and she had a miscarriage as soon as she reached the foothills. Xin’er had lost all hope, and I brought her back to the capital city and called the Imperial Physician to treat her. After half a year of care, her health slowly improved.”
“Since the two of us had feelings for each other, the rest of our relationship naturally followed. Later, your mother beca pregnant with you. That day, I took Xin’er to the Huguo Temple to offer incense. Unexpectedly, we encountered an ambush on the road. I fled with Xin’er all the way to the back mountain of Huguo Temple. However, Xin’er had a problem with her pregnancy, and we had no choice but to let the palace maid who was following us deliver the baby. In my haste, I cut your umbilical cord.”
Liu Sisi’s face was extrely pale, unable to discern who was telling the truth and who was lying!
“After giving birth, Xin’er was weak and had you with her, and there were no extra people around her to help her escape from the hiding place. So, I thought of using myself as bait to distract the enemy. Only then did I learn that the person who intended to assassinate at Huguo Temple was Zhao Jiong. However, when I shook off the enemy and returned to look for Xin’er, I found that she and you had disappeared.”
“Afterwards, I escaped from death, and the first thing I did after returning to the palace was to look for any signs of Xin’er. Only then did I learn that she had been taken away by Zhao Jiong’s n. I went to Qiulong Mountain once again, but I didn’t expect to find Xin’er’s tomb. Though I wanted to kill Zhao Jiong to avenge Xin’er, I read Xin’er’s last words.”
“I always thought that you had been killed too because you were my princess and also a thorn in his throat. I never thought that he would send you to the civilian world. To this day, I can’t bear to believe it! This is the last letter your mother left, have a look!”
As he spoke, Zhao Yuanlang took out a letter from his chest and presented it to Liu Sisi.
Liu Sisi didn’t reach out to take the letter. Instead, she hugged her arms tightly, trembling all over.
Who is she? Whose daughter is she, really?
“Ruyu, Xin’er left Qiulong Mountain for more than two years. You should have been one year old when you returned to Qiulong Mountain instead of still in swaddling clothes.”
Liu Sisi covered her head in pain as the words of Liu Xuer once again surfaced in her mind: “When I carried you back, you were so young, and your clothes were stained with dry filth…”
Liu Xuer said she was so young at the ti, so if she was really one year old, it shouldn’t have been described that way.
If the person in front of her, Zhao Yuanlang, really was her father, then Zhao Jiong would have been her enemy who had killed her mother! And the reason that mad man Zhao Jiong killed her mother might be because of her existence, making him feel that her mother had betrayed him! If that’s true…
Suddenly, she felt a splitting headache and couldn’t think any further.
Zhao Yuanlang saw the struggle on Liu Sisi’s face, but he couldn’t help her. “Ruyu, you are my daughter and the princess of my Great Zhao Country. I will make up for what I have wronged you in these years, little by little. Don’t worry, I will never let you be wronged again!”
In the side hall.
Di Yelei and Nan Tianzong wore deathly expressions, and neither of them spoke.
After a while, Di Yelei raised his head: “So you’re saying, Sisi is the current Emperor’s daughter? Then…” Isn’t the Emperor’s daughter a princess?
He had never thought of marrying a princess before, but now…
“No matter who Sisi’s biological father is, she is still my sister!”
Nan Tianzong said through gritted teeth.
Yes!
No matter how things change, Sisi and he are still blood siblings! But what about himself? He doesn’t worry about Sisi becoming a Prefecture Princess because Nan Tianzong is an heir, so it only makes sense for her to beco a Prefecture Princess. But suddenly, overnight, soone tells him that Sisi is actually a princess… He sincerely felt that his mind was insufficient to process this information.
“I don’t know if they have finished talking or not. Should we go over?”
Nan Tianzong was also unsure, so he proposed: “Why don’t we go and have a look?”
These words prompted the two to imdiately get up and walk out of the room.
As soon as they reached the doorway, they saw soone from the gatehouse run hurriedly toward them: “Old Master, the old patriarch and others are here. They are currently outside the mansion’s gate.”
“Quick, please invite them in quickly!”
Di Yelei didn’t care about how the conversation over there was going and hurried to greet them outside the mansion’s gate.
“Hold on!”
Nan Tianzong grabbed him by the side: “Today, there are people with extraordinary status in the mansion. You go and have a good talk with your unreliable family mbers and tell them to be careful about what they say, or else…”
