"That young man, named Ashileyan, had already passed away when he was found by the master. He himself was pale and suffering from injuries and illness, and his life was coming to an end.
Mr. Lu said that this young man would be a great opportunity for me to get close to Ashiledi when I return to the court.” Ashileyan said.
Mr. Lu was the white-bearded old man who had kidnapped him to the mountains.
"Ashileyan and I hate Ashiledi as much as I do, but he is different from me. If he returns to the court, it would be patricide, which is a heinous act.
Moreover, his physical condition at the time could no longer sustain him until his return to the court."
So, he told Ashileyan in detail everything he remembered, what he, his mother, and his sister had experienced over the years, including some details of his brief time with Ashiledi.
Then he died with hatred in his heart.
Before closing his eyes, he took Ashileyan's hand and comforted him, "Remember, after I die, you will be Ashileyan. Just take revenge on my behalf! Don't worry about anything else!"
Ashileyan nodded solemnly and said, "Thank you!"
Ashileyan shook his head and said, "No, I should thank you. I am finally free.
From now on, I’ll ask you to carry the burden for me…”
After taking care of Ashileyan's funeral, Mr. Lu began to prepare for his return to the court.
Mr. Lu was good at medicine, but Ashileyan had not known before that he was also good at changing one's appearance.
It's not a disguise, it's a real makeover, and it's permanent.
He let Ashileyan lie on the bed, and after taking some Ma Fei San, he lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, he felt that his entire face was wrapped in white gauze, and some parts of his upper body were also wrapped.
Those areas are swollen and painful.
He was a little anxious, wondering what Mr. Lu had done to him.
Mr. Lu calmly comforted him, saying not to worry, as the results would be clear after the gauze was removed in a month.
A month passed quickly, and when the bandages on his body were removed, Ashileyan found that he seemed to have become a completely different person, yet he seemed to have not changed at all.
His eyebrows, eyes, corners of his mouth, and jaw were clearly his own, but they also had some of Ashileyan's shadow.
They were originally a little bit related by blood and had some similarities. Both of them looked extraordinary, but Ashileyan was taller than Ashileyan. After the fusion by Mr. Lu, it was simply like a miracle that made his appearance surpass the original two and become extraordinarily handsome.
Moreover, it must be said that Mr. Lu not only has superb skills, but is also very meticulous. Even the small mole on the tip of Ashileyan's nose and the old scars on his abdomen were reproduced on his body one by one.
"From now on, you are Ashileyan Benyan. You should go down the mountain tomorrow. According to my calculations, Ashiledi will send someone to look for you in the near future." Mr. Lu said, stroking his silver-white beard.
"Then, sir, where are you going?" After more than two years of getting along, Ashileyan had already developed some feelings for this selfless and selfless gentleman, and was a little reluctant to leave him.
"All good things must come to an end. I still have my own tasks to do. You can leave now. Don't worry about me." Mr. Lu said casually.
Sure enough, when Ashileyan got up early the next day, Mr. Lu was nowhere to be seen.
He had no choice but to go down the mountain as he was told, and when the time was right, he returned to the palace.
Ashiledi was suspicious by nature and was very wary of him at first. On the one hand, he doubted whether he was really Ashileyan, and on the other hand, he doubted whether he had ulterior motives in agreeing to return to the court.
It was only because he had no children and no one to inherit his kingdom that he had no choice but to find him. However, after several years of contact and many investigations, Ashiledi gradually let down his guard against him.
However, since then, Ashileyan never saw Mr. Lu again.
"Shu'er, I am your brother Yan, but I am also Ashile Yan now. I have taken his identity and promised to live on for him..."
Li Shushu didn't wait for him to finish, and snuggled into his arms again, hugging him tighter. She felt heartbroken for the suffering he had endured for her and her family.
"Brother Yan, there's no need to say more. Shu'er understands. Whether you're my Brother Yan or Brother Yan, to me, you're you. Your name is just a code name. Coincidentally, they both sound the same, so from now on, I'll just call you Brother Yan!"
"Yeah." Ashileyan nodded with relief, finally everything was explained clearly.
The girl in his arms was so soft and well-behaved, and her sweet body fragrance wafted faintly through his nose. For some reason, when he heard her call him Brother Yan, he suddenly recalled last night when she was in his arms and called him "Brother Yan".
Suddenly, I felt a little...
His face turned red. Fortunately, it was dark and Li Shushu couldn't see his expression clearly. He tried hard to suppress the desire in his heart and hugged her arms tightly in response.
Then, he changed the subject, "Shu'er, back then, I saw you buried alive by those beasts. I dug you out of the mound myself, tested your nasal cavity, and confirmed that you were dead. How did you come back to life?"
"Well, it's a long story..." So Li Shushu told him about her own experience, how she woke up after the fake death drug lost its effect, how she was sold to the capital of Dayu by a man, and how she came to marry on behalf of Princess Zhaoyang.
She didn't tell him about her rebirth. After all, it was a bit mysterious and she didn't know if he could accept it yet.
"To be honest, it was Brother Yan who accidentally dug Shu'er out of the pile of dirt and saved me. Otherwise, I might have turned into a pile of yellow earth long ago..."
