I married the crippled queen and became the most favored queen in the capital
Chapter 154 Poor Hong Yan
While thinking about these things, she came to the gate. Leng Yiyan glanced at the woman standing at the door, then turned and left.
Luo Nianxi looked at the woman in front of her and asked in surprise:
"Are you looking for me?"
The woman took two steps forward and knelt down in front of her.
"Princess Yan, I have been looking for you so hard."
what?
She helped her up and asked in confusion,
"You're looking for me? What's the matter?"
The woman raised her head and looked at her.
"You forgot that you saved me at the entrance of Ren City a year ago..."
One year ago? People's market?
Luo Nianxi frowned as she recalled, and suddenly she nodded as if she had suddenly realized something.
"I remember you were the girl who sold herself to bury her father?"
The woman nodded hurriedly.
"It's me, it's me. You have a good memory. Fortunately, you still remember me."
"Chun Tao just thought you looked familiar, but I couldn't remember where you were. Where have you been in the past year?"
The woman hesitated and whispered:
"Princess Yan, can I come in and talk?"
Luo Nianxi just remembered that she was so busy asking her about her recent situation that she forgot to invite her into the house.
She nodded apologetically.
"Quick, please come inside."
After the woman followed Luo Nianxi to the main hall, Chuntao poured her a cup of hot tea. Holding the cup of hot tea in her hand, she suddenly burst into tears.
This scene surprised Luo Nianxi.
"Girl, what's wrong with you?"
The woman put down the teacup, wiped the tears from her eyes, and shook her head.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Princess Yan. I just thought of the past."
"I'm glad you're okay. By the way, what's your name?"
The woman hesitated and replied in a low voice:
"My name is Hong Yan. I came to you today because I have something to tell you."
Having said this, she glanced at the servants around her and said hesitantly:
"There are many people here..."
Luo Nianxi nodded immediately and waved to Chuntao.
"Everyone, get out of here!"
Chuntao hesitated.
"Princess, can you do it alone?"
She didn't know Hong Yan's background, so naturally she didn't dare to leave the princess alone here.
Luo Nianxi smiled and shook her head.
"Don't worry, since she dared to come here alone, she must have no bad intentions."
Chuntao nodded, then called the maids and retreated together.
When there were only the two of them left, Luo Nianxi looked at her.
"If you have anything to say, please speak up!"
Hong Yan's two fingers were restlessly clenched together, his teeth were biting his lips tightly, and his face turned pale at this moment.
"what happened to you?"
"Please ask Princess Yan to make the decision for me."
When she said this, she slid down from the chair and looked at Luo Nianxi with tears on her face. She repeated,
"Please ask Princess Yan to make the decision for me."
Her sudden action surprised Luo Nianxi. She hurriedly stood up and went forward to help her up.
"If there's anything I can do for you, just tell me. No need to be so polite."
Hong Yan stood up with her help and sat back on the chair. After she watched Luo Nianxi sit down, she slowly spoke.
"I heard that Prince Yan is investigating Wang Wu's case. I'm here to appeal for justice for my father and my whole family..."
As soon as she said this, Luo Nianxi instantly realized the seriousness of the matter. She frowned and asked cautiously:
"What's your connection with Wang Wu's case?"
Hong Yan sobbed and lowered his head.
"I'm sorry, I lied to you. A year ago, the person I wanted to sell for burial wasn't my father. He was our housekeeper. He was injured and died while trying to save me and my family..."
Hearing this, Luo Nianxi felt that Hong Yan in front of her was a sensible girl. She was willing to sell herself in order to bury a housekeeper. This spirit was really precious.
"It's not your fault. If I knew you could sell yourself to bury an old housekeeper, I should help you. You don't have to feel sorry. What about your family?"
"Uuuuuuu..."
When talking about her family, Hong Yan cried even louder. Seeing this, Luo Nianxi hurried to comfort her.
"Don't cry, just talk slowly if you have anything to say. I will help you if I can."
Only then did Hong Yan stop crying and talked to Luo Nianxi intermittently about her family.
It turned out that Hong Yan's father was a doctor. They didn't live in Chang'an City originally, but later heard that business in Chang'an City was good, so her father took them and moved to Chang'an City, bought a house with a street front and a habitable back, and opened a medical clinic here...
However, their clinic had just been open for less than three days when a fire broke out one night for unknown reasons. That night, because her family was angry, she sneaked out alone. The housekeeper Liu Bo was worried that something had happened to her, so he followed her out to look for her. Only then did the two of them survive.
That night, Uncle Liu found her in the suburbs and gave her some counseling. She realized that she was wrong and wanted to go back to apologize to her father and mother. But when she got home, she found that her house was engulfed in fire.
She was about to rush in like a madman to save her family, but was stopped by Uncle Liu, who asked her to wait here while he went in to save them.
When Liu Bo came out again, he had turned into a ball of fire.
He fell in front of Hong Yan, handed her a jade pendant, and told her that the person who set the fire was Wang Wu, the owner of Shangpin Hall. This jade pendant was the best evidence, and asked her to seek justice for her family. Liu Bo also told her to leave here as soon as possible and not let the other party know that she was still alive, otherwise she would be killed.
Hearing this, Luo Nianxi felt her scalp tingling.
It turned out that she had only heard that two medical clinics in Chang'an City had caught fire for unknown reasons one after another, but she did not expect that there would be such a tragic ending.
She asked in panic:
"So your parents died in that fire?"
Hong Yan was already sobbing. She nodded and wiped her tears.
"Not only that, my sister who just turned fourteen and my brother who was eight were both buried in the sea of fire. No trace of their bodies was left. The place was cleaned up by government officials within a day. From then on, I lost the chance to apologize to my parents. I couldn't even find a place to pay tribute to them...
Her dearest relatives disappeared overnight. It was too cruel for a woman like her to bear it.
After a while, seeing that Hong Yan's emotions had stabilized, Luo Nianxi asked again:
"So...what happened next? Did you go to the government office?"
"The next day, I found Liu Bo's body and thought of burying him first, which was the day you saw me. After you gave me the silver, I buried Liu Bo. I wanted to go to the government office to beat the drum to complain, but when I walked to the gate of the government office, I saw with my own eyes that people in official clothes sent Wang Wu out of the government office. The two of them were chatting and laughing, just like a pair of old friends. At that moment, I knew that even if I went to beat the drum, it would be of no avail. I thought about going to the emperor to file a complaint, but I wandered around the gate of the palace for a few days and didn't even see the shadow of the emperor. I also knew that even if I saw the emperor, he would not care about such trivial matters as mine. Later, I thought, since the government and the emperor couldn't help me, I could only rely on myself. I went to Shaolin Temple and asked the master there to teach me kung fu. I knelt outside the temple for three days before the master reluctantly let me stay. But he said that Shaolin Temple only accepts men but not women, and he was kind enough to let me stay in the temple temporarily. While helping the temple with some chores, he also taught me some self-defense kung fu..."
