Chapter 213: You Are Not Our Biological Daughter

Didn’t expect this young girl’s thoughts to be exactly the same as her own, and she was actually using her cleverness! 【

The corner of the mouth curved, revealing a hint of a bloodthirsty smile.

She put down the note in her hand and languidly called out, “Someone!”

Immediately, a secret guard in a black garment appeared in front of him, kneeling on one knee: “This King!”

“Go, regarding the matter of this King’s favored concubine, don’t deliberately leak it out anymore, this is enough.” Ao Chenyi’s crimson thin lips curved into a leisurely smile, originally he would inadvertently reveal some things and draw attention to this suddenly appearing Third Young Lady Ning. Now with this young girl’s antics, it would be hard for Ao Mingyu not to notice her!

Using a clever plot, which coincided with his own ideas, this young girl was really more and more to his liking!

“Yes, this subordinate will go and handle it immediately!” The secret guard nodded, then stood up to leave.

“Wait a moment!” Ao Chenyi suddenly called out to him.

“This King, please give your instructions!” The secret guard immediately stopped, stood still, and respectfully lowered his head.

“Go and investigate that old man, Ya Rui, and find out where those two women came from who his granddaughter brought from Jiangnan, and whether they might be the people this King is looking for. If possible, bring them here to this King.”

Ao Chenyi’s exquisite, vermilion lips parted, and he spoke slowly.

“This King, the Third Prince’s guards are strict. Since those two beauties entered the Third Prince’s Mansion, the Third Prince’s confidantes have been watching, and no one can go there casually.” The secret guard hesitated for a moment.

“If they can’t be seen alive, then they’ll be seen dead!” Ao Chenyi elegantly picked up a pen and casually took a note. He gave a “chi” laugh, his eyes were of an unclear depth, and his words were bloodthirsty.

“Yes!” The secret guard didn’t dare to say more, lowered his head, and retreated, then disappeared behind the window.

Ao Chenyi picked up the pen and wrote a few words, stuffed the note into a clip under the right leg of a pigeon, and reached out with a rare gentleness to stroke the pigeon’s back twice, then threw the pigeon into the air.

When Ning Xueyan received this pigeon, she was also preparing to wash up. Hearing the sound of gentle pecking at the window, Xinmei quickly put down her comb, walked to the window, opened the window, and let the pigeon in. She skillfully took the note from the pigeon’s leg, held the pigeon, walked to Ning Xueyan’s side, and handed it to Ning Xueyan.

“Young Lady, the Prince’s letter!”

Ning Xueyan, with her hair down, turned her head carelessly, looked at the note that Xinmei had handed over, played with it for a while, reached out and gently stroked the pigeon’s snow-white back, sighed, and then opened it. She didn’t know what madness this wicked charm, Prince Yi was up to, that he would have Xinmei send a pigeon over, and she would have to send a message if there was anything.

The only word on the opened note was: good!

Ning Xueyan was astonished. This evil, cold-blooded Prince Yi would also say such words, it was truly crazy!

She crumpled the note in her hand, put it on the fire, burned it, and threw it on the ground, watching the note turn into ashes. Only then did she lie down in front of the bed, nodded to Xinmei, and signaled her to go out.

“Young Lady, do you want to blow out the candle?” Xinmei went to the window to put down the pigeon, then took a broom to sweep the ashes on the ground, and asked, looking up.

Ning Xueyan sometimes needed to read for a while before sleeping.

“No need, I’ll read for a while, and I’ll blow it out myself later!” Ning Xueyan shook her head, half-propped up her body, reached out and took a book from the small table on the side, and flipped through it, not raising her head.

“Yes!” Xinmei poured her a cup of hot water and quietly withdrew.

Under the light, Ning Xueyan held the book, but although her gaze fell on the pages, she couldn’t see the words clearly. In her mind, she already had the performance of Ning Qingshan today, and although Ao Mingyu’s performance was still normal later, the smile on his face had decreased a lot, and he would often space out and seemed to be suspecting Ning Qingshan.

After thinking for a while, she sat up, reached out and took the top letter from a small package in her arms, which she had secretly taken from Cloud Shadow Courtyard today. This letter was what her mother had asked her to give to Duchess Ming when she first came to the Capital City.

Unfortunately, when she came to the Capital City, Madam Ming had already become the Second Madam, and since then, she had secluded herself with Ning Xueyan in Mingshuang Courtyard, not seeing strangers. Therefore, this letter had never been sent out. It could be seen that her mother and Madam Ming had not contacted each other for many years and didn’t even know about Madam Ming’s request to step down from her position. Seeing this letter, Ning Xueyan could only say that it was a coincidence, and after thinking about it, she still put it aside.

Next, she also saw a letter, a not very thick letter.

The familiar words on the surface immediately caused her tears to fall. It was her mother’s letter, a letter her mother had left for her.

“Words for Ying’er” “Mother’s Leave”

A few simple words, as if bringing her back to her previous life. When her mother was not dead, she was also a happy child. Even though her father had died early, her mother had also given her love. However, all of this disappeared with her mother’s death, and before she had come out of the sadness of losing her mother.

The Old Steward had her rush to the Capital City, saying that it was all arranged by Madam. And after that, she had been running towards a dead end.

Seeing her mother’s words again was after a lifetime!

With trembling hands, she pulled out the letter paper and saw a thin letter. There were not many words, but when Ning Xueyan saw the first sentence, her head went “boom,” as if struck by a thunderbolt. In disbelief, she used her sleeve to wipe her tears. When she saw the words clearly, she only felt that the blood in her whole body was pouring upwards!

How could it be possible? How could it be possible that she was not her mother’s biological daughter!

The first sentence of the letter, besides addressing herself, was: “Ying’er, you are not our biological daughter!”

How could it not be her mother’s biological daughter? In her memory, there was only her mother and father. Her father was kind and official, and although he was not a great official, he was also someone in that area. Their family’s population was extremely simple: father, mother, and herself. There were no concubines or favored concubines.

The relationship between her parents was always so affectionate! They never quarreled. Every time her father came back from outside, he would also bring her some delicious fruits. At that time, she would gobble them down and always give half to her mother.

Although the life of the previous life was gone, these happy memories of the previous life were firmly remembered in her mind!

Sometimes she would compare Ning Xueyan’s childhood with her own childhood, and every time she would come to the conclusion that her childhood was happy. Compared to Ning Xueyan, Ning Ziying’s childhood was happy, after all, she had a father and mother who loved her so much, and no one in the backyard bullied her.

But now, her mother was telling her that she and her father were not her biological parents, which made her how could she face it!

She reached out to wipe her tears and continued to read. The more she read, the more she felt her heart palpitate, and tears fell one by one, blurring her vision.

She had actually been picked up by her mother and father. At that time, she was only two or three years old. She had appeared at the door of her parents’ mansion on a day with a big storm. The young child was shivering under the veranda, hugging her arms, and almost froze. It was the Old Steward who saw her and carried her in.

Her situation was not good at the time. She had burns in several places on her body, and there were also burn marks on the tips of her hair. She was as if she had escaped from a fire. Her mother saw that she was pitiful and also lovely, and since she didn’t have children, she adopted her and gave her the name Ning Ziying.

Her mother said that she didn’t know her background. She had also sent people to investigate later, but after investigating, she couldn’t find out the truth. Later, she lost this thought and wholeheartedly treated her as her own daughter. Later, she also arranged a marriage for her, but it was unfortunate that Heaven played tricks, and her father died and her mother died, leaving her an orphan girl.

Perhaps her biological parents would come looking for her in the future, so she left this letter to tell her the truth.

The last part of her mother’s words was not detailed, and many places used ellipses, showing that her mother was also extremely conflicted at the time. Finally, she also said that if she wanted to find out about her background, she could go to a nun named Jingkong after arriving in the Capital City, and she might know something about it, and could ask her.

It’s just that when she mentioned this nun Jingkong, her mother specifically said that she also didn’t know where this Jingkong was in which Nun’s Abbey now. If she was fated, she might meet her. After that, there was some irrelevant words. It seemed that her mother only knew this name about this Jingkong, and she didn’t even know how old she was.

Closing the letter paper, Ning Xueyan’s eyes showed a few more points of contemplation. She recalled the words on the letter paper again from beginning to end in her mind, and vaguely felt that her mother was concealing something and didn’t tell the whole truth.

After being reborn, she, who had gone through the sea of blood and hell, was no longer the Ning Ziying who knew nothing!

Since her mother said that she couldn’t find her background, how did she know this nun named Jingkong, and also so sure that she was the person she was looking for, and she would certainly tell her what she needed to know. Moreover, before coming to the Capital City, her mother was clearly laying out a trap, what was she avoiding.

And Xia Yuhang’s abnormal attitude, what did he want to get from her!

With his and Ning Ziyan’s situation of secretly having a child, they would definitely have to arrange this marriage early, why bother to postpone her marriage to the very end, and only take action the night before the marriage, after the dowry had entered Xia Mansion’s gate!

What was it about her grooming that he wanted, so he delayed taking action!

When she was reborn, she angrily thought that Xia Yuhang was after her wealth, but later, she thought that it would never be so simple. Although she had a lot of wealth, it wouldn’t make Xia Yuhang specifically drag out his and Ning Ziyan’s affairs, and what’s more, if she died, those wealth would naturally belong to the Duke’s Mansion.

Madam Ling favored Ning Ziyan, and it was not a problem for Ning Ziyan to take some to Xia Mansion!

But they had to wait until the very end. What exactly did Xia Yuhang want? What exactly was in the so-called brocade? What else was her mother concealing? Or rather, what exactly was her mother avoiding!

The memories of the previous life unfolded little by little from her mind. In her memory, her mother rarely took her out. Every time she couldn’t get away with her, she would let her sit in the carriage and go around in the city, and she was not allowed to get out of the carriage. Her mother only said at the time that she was afraid that she would get lost.

Thinking about it now, it seemed more like she didn’t want her to appear in public!

She flattened the envelope again, put it in the small package, thought about it, got up, went to the dressing table, pulled out a drawer, put the small package in it, and then closed the drawer!

Turning around, she got on the bed, blew out the lamp, and lay still. In the dark night, only a pair of black jade-like cold eyes were open, staring blankly at the dark night.

Master Jingkong, right? Since she was the key to all the things, she would definitely find this person. Although her mother was ominous in meaning, she was still very sure and very clear when she mentioned this person.
