I am Yuan Niaoniao

Chapter 40: Death of Tan Xinhui

"Prince, the Governor's wife wants to see Miss Feng." Qingfeng's voice sounded outside the door.

"Refuse it." Han Haotian refused without even thinking. If she was in that state, it might be exposed if she saw him. It was better not to see him. Everything had to be stable before the child was born.

"Yes, Prince." Qingfeng then made up another reason to reject the Governor's wife.

On the way back, the Governor's wife thought more and more that something was wrong. As soon as she returned to the Governor's Mansion in Los Angeles, she immediately found the Governor of Los Angeles and told him what happened today: "Master, this is not right. Fei'er has even come back to visit her parents since she got married. She is pregnant now, and it has been more than two months. Although it is not stable yet, she can't refuse to see me when I come to her house."

"Madam, I think something is not right. Fei'er sent me a letter half a year ago. Now, let alone meeting her, even the letters have not been seen again. Something is indeed not right. Let's wait for another month. When the child is safe, we will go to your house to ask for a meeting. We must meet her no matter what!" Feng Qingyuan said with a firm look.

"Then let's do as the master wishes." Although she was very anxious, the child was not yet three months old and not stable yet, so she had to be patient.

………………

Qingfeng just looked at the Governor's wife's face and felt that it was not a solution to always refuse, so he went back to Han Haotian and said, "Sir, it is not a solution to always refuse people from the Governor's Mansion. We have to arrange for Miss Feng to meet her."

Han Haotian put down the book in his hand, frowned and thought about what Qingfeng said. It seemed to be true. He couldn't keep making excuses like this. "Then you go and arrange it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Pushing open the door that was locked all day, Tan Xinhui was sitting in the corner with her knees hugged, her eyes dull and lifeless.

"Ms. Feng." Qingfeng called out with disdain.

Upon hearing this, Tan Xinhui raised her head and glanced at Qingfeng, but did not respond and just continued to be in a daze.

"The prince wants you to cooperate and meet the governor and his wife of Luocheng."

After Tan Xinhui became pregnant, she seemed to have been reborn, no longer the violent woman. She became indifferent, like a lotus flower on the lake, quietly blooming and not competing with the world. There was only one thought left in her mind, which was to escape from the prince's mansion, return to the countryside, and see her elderly parents.

However, she knew that all this was just wishful thinking. Han Haotian, the man who once moved her heart, has now become the biggest shackle in her life. She knew that what she had done was enough for him to kill her thousands of times. However, he did not do so, but chose to spare her life and let her give birth to a grandson for him to win his favor. The funny thing is that it is not even clear who the child belongs to. If she gave birth to such a child, she would be the one to die if it was discovered, and he could get away with it completely. What a good plan!

Tan Xinhui couldn't help but smile bitterly. She once thought that love would make her strong, but she didn't expect that love would make her so fragile. She once thought that she could control everything, but she didn't expect that in the end she would be controlled by fate. She once thought that Han Haotian was her salvation, but she didn't expect that he was the biggest disaster in her life.

Every day she thought about how to escape from the Prince's Mansion and return to the countryside. However, she knew that this was almost impossible. The high walls and deep courtyards of the Prince's Mansion were like a solid wall, making it impossible for her to escape. She had tried to find an opportunity, but failed every time.

However, she did not give up. She believed that as long as there was a glimmer of hope, she could not give up. She began to look for various possible opportunities, hoping to find a way to escape. She no longer complained about the world like before, but began to calmly analyze the situation and look for a breakthrough.

So when she heard Qingfeng say that she was going to meet Feng Feier's parents, she was not in a daze, she realized that this was a rare opportunity. But she couldn't let Qingfeng see that if she could take the opportunity to meet Feng Feier's parents, she might be able to find a way to escape.

So, she began to plan in her mind how to take advantage of this meeting, and she already had a plan in her mind.

"Think about your parents and consider whether to agree or not." Qingfeng brought up this weakness again when she saw that she didn't say anything.

"I promise you that I won't let the prince down." Tan Xinhui said pretending to be nervous.

It really works! Qingfeng turned and left when he saw this. "Then get ready."

After Qingfeng left, Tan Xinhui's eyes were filled with life again. She must escape!

She first found the maid who delivered meals to her every day and said, "Lian'er, please help me. These are all for you, my good Lian'er." Lian'er was a reliable maid, so she chose her. She took out her only jewelry and stuffed all of them into her, begging her to help her when the time comes. She had never treated this maid badly in the past and had treated her well.

"Miss, but..." Lian'er didn't know whether to agree or not. If something happened, her seriously ill parents at home would still rely on her salary to live. She took another look at the jewelry in her hand. It could be exchanged for her two years' salary. How could she not be tempted? Besides, Feng Fei'er had taken good care of her in the past, so she reluctantly agreed.

Soon Feng Feier's parents were invited to the Prince's Mansion.

"I can finally see Fei'er, my lord." The Governor's wife couldn't help but shed tears. She hadn't seen her precious daughter since their engagement. She couldn't persuade her against staying alone in Dadu to be close to the Crown Prince and learn the etiquette of the Crown Prince's consort, so she had to agree to her wish.

Feng Qingyuan patted the back of his wife's hand, signaling her to adjust her mood and not to lose her manners when she arrived at the Prince's Mansion.

Tan Xinhui finally walked out of the locked door. She felt an unprecedented sense of relief and freedom. She seemed to see the dawn of hope, and her heart was filled with excitement and anticipation. "Concubine, please follow me." Lian'er, who was waiting on the side, took Tan Xinhui to the hall first.

"Daddy, Mom." Tan Xinhui called out lightly.

Feng Qingyuan and the Governor-General's wife raised their heads when they heard the familiar voice, "Fei... Your humble servant greets the concubine, and your humble servant greets the concubine."

"No need to be polite, please take a seat. Someone, serve the refreshments." Tan Xinhui felt as if she had seen her own parents. Her parents must have missed her this much. "Is everything okay? Fei'er is unfilial and cannot serve you any longer."

"Everything is fine, everything is fine, thank you for your concern." Feng Qingyuan also wanted to call Fei'er, but now his daughter is the honorable prince's concubine, so he still has to observe the proper etiquette.

"Fei'er, I miss you so much." The Governor's wife couldn't help it any longer. What was the point of observing these cumbersome etiquettes? Her precious daughter was right in front of her. She quickly stepped forward and held Tan Xinhui's hand. "Why have you lost so much weight? Is it because you are pregnant that your appetite has decreased?"

"It's a little unappetizing, but it's much better. Don't worry, mother." Perhaps it was because she hadn't seen her parents for too long. Tan Xinhui was cared for by the gentle Governor's wife. It was as if her own mother was caring for her. She couldn't help but put herself into the role and completely forgot how she had plotted and killed Feng Feier.

"Xiang'er. What's wrong with you? The concubine's appetite has become worse. Why don't you adjust her diet!" The Governor's wife turned around and scolded Xiang'er, who had followed Feng Fei'er since she was a child.

"It has nothing to do with Xiang'er. It's because you feel like vomiting everything you eat. Mother!" Tan Xinhui hurried to speak up for Xiang'er. Ever since she was locked up, Xiang'er was sent to do the hardest job. If she hadn't met today, she would probably not have been able to see Xiang'er. Naturally, she couldn't let Xiang'er reveal the truth and let the Governor's wife know that she was locked up.

"You. Tell me what you want to eat and I'll make it for you!"

"it is good."

The harmonious scene here soon reached Han Haotian's ears, "She's sensible. Humph!" He had originally thought of going over there himself to join in the play, but he didn't expect his father to temporarily summon him to the palace. It was perfect, since he had no intention of acting in this play anyway.

"Miss, the prince is not at home, but Lord Qingfeng is here." Lian'er quietly walked behind Tan Xinhui and said softly.

The opportunity came, Tan Xinhui nodded and let Lian'er leave.

"Mother, I miss you so much." Tan Xinhui suddenly hugged the Governor's wife and whispered in her ear, "Mother, the Prince's Mansion is under control everywhere. Can you secretly take Fei'er out for a walk? Fei'er is very bored and trapped in the mansion all day long."

Upon hearing this, the Governor's wife was a little surprised at first, and then immediately felt distressed, "But, will the prince allow it?"

"The prince is not at home, so I will let Xiang'er pretend to be me. I will pretend to be Xiang'er, go out, and come back in the evening." Tan Xinhui tried to persuade the Governor's wife.

"Is it okay?" The Governor's wife was a little worried. After all, she was now a concubine and was pregnant, so it was better for her not to run around.

"Just don't tell Daddy." Tan Xinhui said coquettishly.

"Well, there's really nothing we can do about you." The Governor's wife patted Tan Xinhui on the back in her arms.

Then Tan Xinhui made an excuse, "I'm a little tired, Xiang'er, help me go back." She wanted to go back to the room to rest first. The Governor's wife loved her daughter very much, so she wanted to help Feng Fei'er go back. This set of procedures seemed to be fine.

"Slow down, concubine." Xiang'er, who was completely unaware of the situation, helped Feng Fei'er back.

When they got to the room, Tan Xinhui knocked Xiang'er unconscious with a palm strike. With the help of Lian'er, she exchanged clothes with Xiang'er, and then prepared to leave the Prince's Mansion under the protection of the Governor's wife.

"Xiang'er, remember this, the concubine has to eat porridge in the morning and evening. At noon, give her more sour food to go with her meal." The Governor's wife instructed Tan Xinhui, who was pretending to be Xiang'er, as she walked.

"Yes, ma'am." Tan Xinhui followed the Governor's wife with her head down.

The journey was surprisingly smooth, and we finally walked out of the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

She ran along the path outside the city, her heart beating as fast as a war drum, fearing that if she delayed a second, she would be captured by the people sent by the prince. Her long hair fluttered in the wind, her clothes fluttered, like a moving painting. The light in her eyes was more blazing than the sun, it was the desire for freedom.

However, fate did not seem to let her off easily. Just as she was about to disappear from sight, a group of guards in black appeared in front of her like ghosts. Their eyes were cold and cruel, as if they wanted to devour her.

Tan Xinhui's heart tightened, but she did not stop. She gritted her teeth and continued to rush forward, trying to escape their pursuit at the last moment. However, the guards were as fast as ghosts and easily blocked her way.

"Do you think you can escape from the Prince's Mansion?" A gloomy voice sounded behind her. She turned around and saw Qingfeng standing there with a gloomy face and a gleam of disdain in his eyes.

Tan Xinhui's heart sank to the bottom. Damn it, he found her after all. I didn't expect him to find her so soon. She stared at Qingfeng, and her eyes were instantly filled with determination and courage. She knew that she couldn't just give in like this, she had to fight for a chance of survival.

"You have imprisoned and tortured me for so long, isn't it enough? Is it wrong for me to fight for a chance to escape?" Tan Xinhui asked loudly, her voice full of power, as if it could penetrate Qingfeng's cold shell.

Qing Feng sneered, his eyes wandering over Tan Xinhui with a bit of disdain. "Where do you think you can escape to? Don't forget, you have committed a capital crime. Don't ever think about leaving the Prince's Mansion, and you must atone for your sins forever!!"

Tan Xinhui was filled with anger and despair. She knew that Han Haotian would not let her go easily, and she had to find a way to deal with Qingfeng. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Suddenly, she thought of a plan. She decided to use her true identity to fight for a chance of survival. She raised the corner of her mouth and revealed a mocking smile. "Do you really think you can imprison me and torture me forever? I tell you, I am Tan Xinhui, tell Han Haotian that I am Tan Xinhui, hahahahahahaha, I should kill him and poison this scum to death once and for all!"

Qingfeng was stunned. He seemed to be shocked by Tan Xinhui's words. The sinister look in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a hint of doubt and uneasiness. He began to doubt his own eyes. Tan Xinhui? Of course he knew who it was, but wasn't she dead? She should have been dead!

However, at this moment, a guard rushed over and interrupted their conversation. "Qingfeng, it's bad, the prince is back!"

Qingfeng frowned, obviously a little flustered by the news. He glanced at Tan Xinhui, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes. He knew that he had to catch Tan Xinhui right away. He waved his hand, signaling the guards to take Tan Xinhui back to the prince's mansion. However, just as they were about to take action, Tan Xinhui suddenly broke free, jumped onto a horse, and galloped away.

"What are you standing there for? Chase him!" Qingfeng scolded.

"Yes," upon hearing that, the guards hurriedly mounted their horses and chased after Tan Xinhui.

Tan Xinhui rode her horse across the wilderness, her heart filled with joy and freedom. She knew she had succeeded.

She rejoiced too soon, and an arrow struck her in the back.

It’s Han Haotian.

As soon as he knew that she was actually Tan Xinhui, Han Haotian felt sick of being fooled. He had been fooled for so long by an ant that he could have crushed to death with one foot. He was simply a joke. Furious, Han Haotian drew his bow and aimed at Tan Xinhui's heart. One arrow was not enough to vent his anger, so he shot another arrow, and shot several arrows in a row. Han Haotian didn't care about the consequences and just wanted to cut Tan Xinhui into pieces right away.

She spat out a large mouthful of blood and slowly fell off the horse, but Tan Xinhui's face was smiling at the moment. She was successful. At least Han Haotian was fooled by her. Hehe! Dad, Mom, I am an unfilial daughter. I will be filial to you in the next life. Finally, she closed her eyes with a smile.

"Hmph, bitch!" Han Haotian spat angrily, glared at Qingfeng and turned away.

Leave this mess for Qingfeng to clean up.

On the second day, the news that the prince's concubine was killed while going out and two people were killed spread throughout the capital. Han Haotian was heartbroken and asked to go out of the city to eliminate the bandits and avenge the concubine.

Upon hearing the news, the Governor of Los Angeles and his wife were so sad that they fell ill in bed. The Governor's wife cried day and night out of guilt. If she had not promised Fei'er that day to help her sneak away, this tragedy would not have happened.

…………

After Yuan Niaoniao knew the news, she felt very calm. She was not as happy as she had imagined, nor did she have any other emotions. It was as if the person who died was just a passerby who had nothing to do with her. Next, it was Han Haotian's turn.
