Chapter 68: Sad Painting Fan (8) How can I attract Xie Yun’s attention…
"So what if she's my biological sister?" Song Hechang sneered. His biological sister...
"If I didn't know in advance that my sister had obtained evidence to accuse me, then even if she was my biological sister, she would have presented the evidence to clear her husband's name. And then she would have put me to death with her own hands." An expression of pain and sadness appeared on Song Hechang's dirty face.
He thought with a wrenching heart that even a sister wouldn't care about the so-called sibling relationship at a time like this. The person she loved was Yan Jingtong. Her brother was never her first priority. He was something to be discarded when weighing the pros and cons.
So instead of letting his sister abandon him first, it would be better for him to abandon his sister first.
This was also a very painful thing, and he hated that no one could understand his pain.
But she was his sister, the one who treated him the best. He never forgot her in his life...
As a young boy in the palace, he contracted an accidental illness that left him with a leg disease, leaving him unable to walk for the rest of his life. He endured the cold stares of his so-called brothers and sisters, and the indifference of the palace maids. Despite his diligent study, every time he made progress, he longed for his father's attention.
But the emperor never cared. All his efforts were insignificant in his father's eyes.
He knew then that his life was a life of trapping. He would either be killed or completely buried. If he didn't fight back, fight for himself, he would never see the light of day.
I still remember that in the dead of winter one year, a prince deliberately let him fall out of his wheelchair and onto the ground, and forced him to crawl in front of him like a dog and lick his shoes before he would help him get back on the wheelchair.
That humiliation would be etched in his heart forever. Like sleeping on straw and tasting gall, every time he couldn't hold on any longer, he would bring it up and savor it again. Every time, it was like a slap in the face, burning with pain.
So he later had the prince exiled to a remote borderland, walking ten thousand miles, breaking both his legs halfway through, and crawling the rest of the way. Song Hechang wanted to make him taste his pain a hundred times, a thousand times more!
Of all his siblings, the eldest princess was the only one who treated him well, the best. She never bullied or discriminated against him because of his disability. She was the only one who saw his efforts and understood his gifts and talents.
They have similar interests and can talk about anything.
When he was sad and frustrated, it was his sister who comforted and encouraged him. Only his sister could see his efforts, his talent and ability.
In Song Hechang's eyes, his elder sister was the most noble, the most dazzling, and the kindest. She was the most intelligent among all the princes and princesses when she was young, and she aspired to become a princess with a heart for the world and the people.
From then on, Song Hechang hoped that he could sit on the supreme position and let his sister become the most honorable princess in the world.
He would never disobey his sister in his life.
"How do you know she would?" Yan Huinan asked in a deep voice, his heart bleeding in pain.
Is it just for this reason?
Yan Huinan: "If you hadn't rebelled and killed my father, how could the evidence have fallen into the hands of others?! It's your evil deeds and evil intentions that led to this disastrous consequence! All the pain should be borne by you, not my mother!"
His mother... His mother was the best person in the world, loved and respected by everyone. Yet, she was murdered by her most trusted and beloved brother.
Yan Huinan tried his best to suppress his anger, the veins on his forehead bulging, "Why should my mother bear the consequences of your mistakes?!"
His father was upright, loved and respected, and famous all over the world.
If it weren't for Song Hechang, Yan Huinan's life would have been smooth sailing. He wouldn't have sought fame, wealth, or power, and would have lived a safe and healthy life. He and Xie Yun wouldn't have ended up like this.
But it was all because of Song Hechang that his life was ruined.
"She shouldn't have been your mother!" Song Hechang seemed to have been offended. He suddenly jumped up and roared at Yan Huinan, "She should have been my sister! But your father showed up! He destroyed the relationship between me and my sister!"
Yan Huinan's brows furrowed deeply, his eyes filled with surprise and disbelief. "What? Say it again if you dare!"
He could no longer suppress his anger and angrily drew the dagger from his waist. The dagger was extremely sharp and could cut through iron like mud. Yan Huinan could no longer maintain his sanity and angrily pressed the dagger between Song Hechang's neck.
He had grown up by Song Hechang's side, and had spent so many years with him, only to see his gentle and humble side. He thought his uncle was a gentleman, but was he actually a perverted beast who wanted to possess his own sister?
Song Hechang was not shy at all at this moment, and Yan Huinan's shock and anger seemed to ignite his excitement, "I said, your mother should have been mine..."
Before he could finish his words, Yan Huinan stabbed his shoulder with a dagger, and blood gushed out.
Song Hechang screamed in agony, his cries echoing in the cell. His dirty face was hideous and horrific.
He gasped violently, "Your father is the most disgusting traitor. He clearly said that he hated my sister. He always made her angry and cry, but she chose him in the end. I don't understand. My whole heart is tied to my sister, but she turned a blind eye and only treated me as a younger brother. But she has a special liking for that awful person who said he hated her. Why did he, Yan Jingtong, do that?!
"He lied to me. He knew I loved my sister, yet he still wanted to take her away from me! On the surface, he pretended to appreciate me and stood up for me, but behind my back, he was betraying me! Since he's so unkind, don't blame me for being unjust! I'm going to make him feel the pain of being betrayed!"
Yan Huinan never expected that his parents would tell him when he was young about their unexpected encounter and acquaintance, which led to many conflicts at first, and finally they understood each other's feelings after the misunderstandings were resolved. Such a love story actually involved such a disgusting beast.
The love between them is still being slandered today.
Yan Huinan didn't want to hear another word from him. He just wanted him to be cut into pieces like slices of fish sashimi!
Yan Huinan gritted his teeth and said, "I treated you as my father, but who knew that you, an old beast, really wanted to be my father? Go to hell!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he started from Song Hechang's shoulder. With a light scratch of the sharp blade, he cut off a bloody piece of meat, which flew to the ground.
Song Hechang was sweating profusely from the pain, his teeth almost breaking. "You damn bastard! Ah—you actually...you actually dared to do this to me! Ah—"
But since Yan Huinan would not let him go, he was even more unwilling to let Yan Huinan have an easy time.
He gritted his teeth, enunciating each word, and painfully questioned Yan Huinan: "How does it feel to kill Xie Yun with your own hands...ah——"
"Don't try to trick me!" Yan Huinan grabbed his neck tightly. "I turned the mountain upside down, but she's not dead. She's still alive."
Song Hechang, however, didn't take it seriously. He panted like a dog, and it took him a long time to speak. "...Who said she would die on the mountain? Do you think...I wouldn't have a backup plan?"
What? !
The hope that Yan Huinan had finally regained was shaken again because of Song Hechang's words.
The fear in his heart flooded again, and his heart beat so hard that it seemed like it was going to jump out of his chest.
"You're talking nonsense! You don't know at all..." Yan Huinan repeatedly tried to refute Song Hechang's words.
But Song Hechang just said, "She just needs to escape from that mountain... Uh--"
Yan Huinan cut off another piece of flesh from his shoulder, but Song Hechang insisted on breaking Yan Huinan's defense. He knew Yan Huinan's weakness clearly. "He will be killed by my people. Yan Huinan... this is all because of you... ah!"
Yan Huinan has been completely driven crazy now. He doesn’t believe it... He absolutely won’t believe it!
As long as Xie Yun’s body is not seen, she must still be alive.
As long as he thought that Xie Yun was still alive in some corner of this world, Yan Huinan could endure all the pain and torture. He would live with guilt until he found Xie Yun.
He would not allow anyone to deny her existence, to deny that she was still alive.
If there is, then he will kill this person himself!
He was so bloodthirsty that he cut off Song Hechang's flesh with one knife after another... one knife after another.
He hated the man in front of him so much that even hearing his screams could not ease the hatred in Yan Huinan's heart.
Song Hechang ruined countless lives because of his twisted thoughts and greedy desires.
Then he will need to pay the price for his actions, and his sins cannot be redeemed even by being skinned and having his tendons pulled out.
Later, Song Hechang fainted from the pain at some point, and died at no one's discretion. But the cell floor was covered in blood, forming a pool of blood. The flesh that fell to the ground was quickly crawling with hungry rats and bedbugs, and the sound of rodents gnawing on the flesh filled Yan Huinan's ears.
Seeing this, the death row prisoners in the surrounding cells could not help but vomit in disgust.
But Yan Huinan seemed to be numb.
When he came out, he was covered in blood.
The glaring sunlight shone on him, making him dizzy and unable to open his eyes. It was such a bright day, and the blue sky seemed to have been washed clean.
But Yan Huinan could not be exposed to the sun or illuminated.
There was a deep dark suffocation in his heart, which made him feel anxious.
Lu Lingyu was on duty at the palace when she encountered Yan Huinan walking alone on the palace road. Even Lu Lingyu was frightened. Yan Huinan was a bloody man! He reeked of blood, and everyone who saw him avoided him from a distance.
When he saw Lu Lingyu, Yan Huinan said in a hoarse voice, "Excuse me, bring me some clean clothes. I'm afraid that I might stink up Lang'er when I get home."
Many of Yan Huinan's clothes were also made by the palace's clothing bureau, so there were some ready-made clothes that fit him. Lu Lingyu quickly asked someone to get them and asked someone to prepare hot water for Yan Huinan to wash.
Before leaving, Lu Lingyu couldn't help but say to Yan Huinan, "Stay alive and take good care of Yan Lang. This is what you should tell Yun'er."
Yan Huinan remained silent, he really was like a walking corpse.

Baixiacheng.
Xie Yun was sitting in the clinic, "Sister, please stick out your tongue so I can see it."
After looking at it for a while, she asked, "Your tongue is coated with white fur. Is your stomach not feeling well?"
"Yeah, even if I eat sour food, it doesn't help my digestion."
Xie Yun smiled faintly, "This isn't just about eating sour food. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Go back and boil it according to the recipe. Take it once a day after meals. Avoid meat, fish, or spicy food. You should be back to health in a month."
"Thank you, Fairy Doctor!"
After the morning consultation, Xie Yun suddenly heard someone next to him discussing something that happened in the capital half a month ago.
"Have you heard? The rumors about the general's death in battle were actually fake news spread by Prince Yu in order to plot a rebellion! Now that the general has returned, he's supporting the young emperor to ascend the throne and eliminating the treacherous officials. It's truly a relief!"
"I can't believe it. You can only judge a person by his appearance. Who would have thought that the virtuous prince, the emperor's mentor, was actually a treacherous man who was plotting to usurp the throne?!"
"Hey! Do you know how he died?"
"How did he die?"
"The general cut him into pieces of human flesh, one cut at a time, and chopped him to death!"
"Ah?" Everyone gasped and exclaimed in amazement.
"Is what you said true or false? This is impossible, right? The general has always respected his uncle, Prince Yu."
"I don't know whether this is true or not."
"There are so many rumors in this world, true and false. Maybe they are false, but maybe they are true. How can we know all the things about the nobles above us?" said Passerby A.
As expected... He will not let any of those who killed Yan Huinan's family go.
Although she had acknowledged this reality countless times, Xie Yun still couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in her heart. She had once thought that her presence at Yan Huinan's place would be an accident.
But in his eyes, he was also the enemy who killed his mother.
How could he possibly...show mercy to his enemy?
Finally, she let out a relieved smile. Just then, a young man, accompanied by a group of servants, walked in arrogantly, "Doctor Sister, my treasure ship has returned today. I promised you a cartload of jewelry last time. I'm keeping my word! Come on, I'll take you to choose!"
Xie Yun frowned, not taking his words seriously. She walked around him and said with a smile, "Your parents are waiting for you to come home for dinner. Go home quickly, my dear!"
"Hey! Doctor sister——" Wen Yao called out again unwillingly.
What the hell! This was the first time he liked someone so much, and he had been frustrated for a month straight!
How can I avoid being looked down upon by her? Damn it!
Thinking of this, Wen Yao was so angry that he kicked over the flowerpot next to him.
As he was leaving, he overheard someone talking: "Hey, did you know that the general's wife is missing, and he's looking for her all over the world!"
"When did it happen?"
"You don't know, right? This is what a relative of mine who works in the palace told me. The general was afraid of scaring the lady, so he sent a large number of his own people to search quietly!"
Wen Yao said arrogantly and disdainfully, "Then this general must be no good! His wife ran away, so it's either domestic violence or he's not good enough!"
His family has been in business for generations, and he has always hated those who provoke wars, no matter whether they are generals or small generals... If he can't even coax his wife, he is bad!
After saying that, Wen Yao casually caught up with Xie Yun who had walked a long way away, "Doctor sister! Doctor sister!"
When Xie Yun ignored him, he angrily said, "Xie Yun! If you keep treating me like a child, I'm going to lose my temper! I'm terrifying when I get angry!"
