Chapter 16 Chen Guogong has an illegitimate son
He is telling the truth.
During the years he came to Ling Kingdom, he had been trapped in the palace.
Some things would be much more convenient if you leave the palace.
He approached Ling Qingyan for this reason.
This princess.
Stupid and soft-hearted.
It is also easy to be deceived by appearance.
This includes, but is not limited to, staring at his face for long periods of time.
Very easy to grasp.
Ling Qingyan crossed her arms and looked at him, sighing.
She seemed a little distressed: "Pei Wuyou, you're making it very difficult for me to handle this."
"Did I embarrass you, sister?" Pei Wuyou seemed a little nervous. He lowered his head slowly, looked at the floor, and said, "I don't really want to go out. Go by yourself, sister. Don't worry about me."
The lonely expression was clearly visible.
"It's difficult, but it's not impossible." Ling Qingyan still couldn't make up her mind.
After all, her love for him was not fake.
He had indeed been trapped in the palace for too long.
If people are trapped in one place for a long time, they will become more and more unhappy and darker.
"I will take you out of the palace, but you have to agree to a few conditions of mine." Ling Qingyan said.
"I agree to whatever my sister says."
"I'll take you out of the palace, but you don't have to go to the Duke's Mansion with me. You can just wander around outside and go wherever you want. No, you're not allowed to go to brothels."
Pei Wuyou seemed to be amused by her words: "Sister, I won't go there."
Very obedient and sensible, Ling Qingyan is very satisfied.
"Secondly, you are not allowed to leave without permission or take advantage of the opportunity to escape. Pei Wuyou, you know that if the emperor doesn't want to release you, you will definitely be found if you take the opportunity to escape without permission. Then I will be unable to protect you, and you will suffer again."
"I know you definitely want to go home. If possible, I would let you go back, but not now, so don't worry, just stroll around outside. I have other things to do today, otherwise I would accompany you." Ling Qingyan tiptoed and touched his head.
The people here are not NPCs, they are warm and thoughtful, and this is a real world.
If Pei Wuyou really fell in love with him, she would try her best to get him back to his country before returning home and not let him suffer in a foreign country.
It can be regarded as a response to him calling her sister so many times.
Ling Qingyan handed him her purse: "Take all these and buy whatever you want. I, your sister, have plenty of money."
Pei Wuyou's body froze, his expression full of confusion and bewilderment.
Why are you so nice to him?
All she asked of him was that he not run away on his own.
Even the reason for this was not because he was afraid of being punished by the emperor, but because he was worried about suffering himself.
She would let him go strolling around the bustling streets by himself, and even gave him money thoughtfully, and felt sorry for not accompanying him.
Pei Wuyou was a little confused.
In Ling Country, he was lucky enough not to be bullied by others, so why would someone treat him so well?
From childhood to adulthood, including the ten years in Wei State.
No one has ever been so nice to him.
His father had many children, but he was born to a concubine and was not favored.
The mother placed her hopes on her more promising brother.
Even his mother could take the initiative to send him as a hostage to pave the way for his brother.
Most people in the royal family put profit above all else.
The same goes for him.
Why, why is Ling Qingyan such an exception.
Ling Qingyan, are you a fool?
I'm lying to you, I'm using you, can't you see?
If I were a poor, sensible and well-behaved little brother, I could always receive your favor.
Then he doesn't mind acting for the rest of his life.
Ling Qingyan took him out of the palace.
They did as agreed, Pei Wuyou wandered around while Ling Qingyan went to Duke Chen's Mansion, and finally they met in front of the palace gate.
The people in front of Duke Chen's mansion have dispersed.
Ling Qingyan inquired about the situation and heard that the man had been invited by Chen Mansheng to the mansion for a confrontation.
Ling Qingyan did not need to report before entering the Chen Mansion. She was taken directly into the front yard.
In the front hall, sitting opposite Chen Mansheng was a young man about the same age as Ling Qingyan.
His clothes were not fancy, and one could even tell he was poor, with several patches on them. He was indeed very handsome, with a high nose bridge, dark eyebrows, long, curved eyes, and a smile in his eyes that made him look easy to get along with.
If you look closely at his eyebrows and eyes, he even bears some resemblance to Chen Mansheng.
Ling Qingyan looked at Mansheng, who had a frown on his face, and his somewhat similar facial features.
She seemed to know why this young man was invited into the mansion.
Both of them noticed Ling Qingyan's arrival and turned their attention to her.
Seeing Ling Qingyan, Chen Mansheng's frown relaxed a little.
"Your Highness, why are you here?" Chen Mansheng walked towards Ling Qingyan, who sat beside her.
"I heard you were in trouble, so I came to see you."
Ling Qingyan glanced at the person opposite her.
The young man noticed her gaze and immediately stood up. "I heard my sister call you Your Highness. I guess you must be Her Highness the Princess. I pay my respects to Her Highness the Princess. May Your Highness be blessed with good health."
Ling Qingyan was very observant and noticed that Mansheng's brows were furrowed even tighter.
She didn't like the boy calling her sister.
But the young man seemed to be deliberately trying to disgust her, and he called her very smoothly.
"What's your name?" Ling Qingyan asked.
"My name is Shen Chuo. My mother is the daughter of the Shen family, a merchant family in Qingzhou. Duke Chen got drunk after handling a case in Qingzhou and forced himself on my mother. After waking up, he left irresponsibly, leaving behind only a letter and some money, without even telling my mother his real name.
My mother unexpectedly became pregnant with me. She looked for my father for many years and was scolded by my family for many years. She died of depression when I was seven years old. I was raised by my maternal grandfather. A year ago, my maternal grandfather's house suffered an accident and caught fire. All the family members except me were unfortunately burned to death.
I started looking for my biological father, and later I really got a clue, but I found out that my father's family...only my sister was left.
My sister is my only relative now, and I think I can depend on her for the rest of my life." Shen Chuo's tone was sad, but it revealed a determination to win.
"Shut up!" Chen Mansheng rarely lost his composure, and his hands on the chair trembled slightly.
She couldn't accept it.
Even though his father was dead, she couldn't accept it.
In her heart, her father and mother are a match made in heaven, her father is the pillar of the country, and he is the father who taught her to read and write, and to be polite and self-disciplined.
He would not hesitate to offend the powerful for the sake of people's livelihood.
He dared to advise the monarch in the court, saying things that the emperor did not like to hear.
He has done nothing wrong towards the country.
Be loyal to your mother.
He is a good teacher for his children.
Her father was so great in her heart. Chen Mansheng endured humiliation and spent three years to clear her father's name and wipe away the dirty water on him.
Now the boy told him.
His father was a jerk who forced a young girl to run away irresponsibly.
Chen Mansheng found it hard to accept for a moment.
But the young man in front of him produced evidence. The letter left behind was written in his father's handwriting, and he looked 50% like his father.
Reason told her that the boy was also a pitiful man, and he and his mother were both victims of his father's evil deeds.
Her father passed away, and she had to face this debt.
But she was really, really in pain.
