Wan Weiran echoed, "That's truly pitiful. Is she the only outsider with the surname Feng in the entire village?"

"Yes, she's the only one. Now she can't be called an outsider. She's also from our Huxi Village. We're from the same village, so we help each other."

It seems that the person in that room is the one Wan Weiran is looking for.

"Ladies, I've checked your health. I'm going to go look in the mountains to see if I can find some herbs."

"Okay, go ahead, young master."

Wan Weiran walked towards the mountain stream and wandered around the yard where he could see it. There was no one in the yard, but Wan Weiran could wait.

It was almost evening when a woman in her fifties finally came back.

The woman had a veil on her face, revealing burnt skin at the corners of her eyes.

She was lame and it was very difficult for her to walk, but she still went to cut some wild vegetables to feed the chickens in the yard.

Seeing someone coming back, Wan Weiran hurried into the yard.

"Aunt Feng, I was treating some other ladies in the village just now. They heard that you weren't feeling well, so they asked me to come and see you."

Feng Hui turned around and glanced at Wan Weiran. He had fair skin and although he was holding a hoe in his hand, his fingers had no calluses. He didn't look like someone who went up the mountain to dig herbs all year round.

"I am in good health. Doctors don't knock on doors. Please leave my yard."

Feng Hui has met too many people and can see through Wan Weiran's disguise at a glance. She is very wary of outsiders.

However, her words and warnings also made Wan Weiran more determined. He had found the right person. Nanny Feng, who was by the side of Concubine Xian back then, was this person.

"Madam Feng, do you still remember Wan Yijun?"

The wild vegetables in Feng Hui's hand fell to the ground, her back trembled, and she turned around to look at Wan Weiran.

"Who are you?"

The only person in this world who still knows her true identity is Wan Shen. Everyone else thinks that she was beaten to death with clubs and her body was taken to a mass grave and burned.

Seeing the other person's eyes, Wan Weiran stopped pretending and directly revealed his identity.

"My father is the director of the Imperial Hospital. Please be extremely cautious!"

He was one of them. Feng Hui turned around and washed her hands in the wooden basin. She raised her hand and asked Wan Weiran to sit in the living room of the courtyard. She also poured him a bowl of water.

"Mr. Wan, did you, Dean Wan, ask you to come looking for me? Are you going to take action?"

Feng Hui had waited for so many years just to take revenge. She wanted to destroy all evidence of the virtuous concubine's betrayal.

She was rescued by Wan Zhangyuan. Her illness tortured her all the time, and her legs hurt every day.

Her appearance has been burned for more than ten years. If a child saw it, he would be scared and cry and have nightmares. If it weren't for the help of Wan Zhangyuan, she would not be alive today.

She, Feng Hui, lived like a devil, while the virtuous concubine could bring a fake prince and enjoy great favor in the palace. How could she not hate him?

She has been lingering on until now just because she wants to testify in person while she is still alive. She wants to let Concubine Xian taste the feeling of having her entire clan executed.

"Madam Feng, can you tell me what the virtuous concubine did back then?"

Feng Hui narrowed her eyes and said, "Mr. Wan, didn't Dean Wan ask you to come?"

Nanny Feng is too vigilant and she doesn't trust Wan Weiran at all. If Wan Weiran wants to know what happened from her, he will have to spend some time to persuade her.

"Madam Feng, it's true that my father didn't ask me to come here. I've come to you to find out what happened back then.

Naturally, it is also full of sincerity. My eldest brother Wan Yijun and I had the best relationship since childhood, but he committed suicide more than ten years ago.

No matter how big the problem was, my eldest brother would never commit suicide, so I spent many years investigating this matter.

But for all these years, I hadn't found any evidence until yesterday when I discovered my father's secret compartment.

It contains my eldest brother's record book, and it mentions you, Aunt Feng, and your current address."

Feng Hui: "So?"

Wan Shen kept telling them not to act rashly, saying that Concubine Xian was at the peak of her power and it was not the right time.

But if Wan Weiran wants Nanny Feng to believe him, he must show that his desire for revenge is more determined than his father's, and that he has more advantages.

"I think it's been a while since Madam Feng has heard about the situation in the imperial court in Huxi Village. It's a good opportunity. Let me tell you about it."

Nowadays, most of the forces in the court support Prince Jing, the second prince who returned from the border town.

As for Concubine Xian, after the fall of the Zhang family, she had been demoted to a beauty. The Zhang family still had some influence in the court, but it was far less than that of Prince Jing.

I believe that if the Emperor knew the Seventh Prince's secret at this moment, he would definitely deal them a final blow, and Nanny Feng would also be able to get her revenge."

Feng Hui wanted revenge. She was a witness. What she wanted was for Concubine Xian to kill her with one fatal blow, rather than letting the only bargaining chip in her hand be wasted on the young man in front of her.

"Even so, why don't I trust Dean Wan, but trust such a young Master Wan?"

Wan Weiran was confident and calm. He picked up the water that Nanny Feng had just poured for him and drank it.

"Madame Feng has been in the palace before and is considered a very smart person. I want to avenge my elder brother. You have been here all this time, accepting money from my father to make a living. Isn't that also a desire for revenge?"

Nanny Feng's silence meant that Wan Weiran had hit the nail on the head, otherwise, she would have refuted him long ago.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend, Aunt Feng. We are allies, and I know you trust my father more than I do.

But think about it, the current situation is favorable for us to take revenge, so why hasn't my father taken action yet?"

"Director Wan still has concerns and hasn't made a plan yet."

Nanny Feng was still defending Wan Shen, but she also had a hint of suspicion because Wan Shen did not tell her that Concubine Xian had been promoted from a concubine to a beauty.

"No, Madam Feng, you are wrong. Father is only the director of the Imperial Hospital. His ability is too limited, so he is not completely sure.

But I am different. Although I am just a small doctor in the Imperial Hospital, my wife is the only daughter of General Han Yan, who has made great military achievements. It is she who supported me in coming to see you.

My best friend, Qu Yuanxun, who has accompanied me for many years to investigate the truth behind my eldest brother's death, is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the highest-ranking official in the Ministry.

The teacher who taught me medicine is also my good friend, Lin Ting. Madam Lin, you should have heard of her name.

The corn that is now grown in Dongxia Kingdom was first grown by her, and the peppers that you are growing now were also discovered to be edible by her and then grown in large quantities.

Not only does she know all these, she is also the boss behind Hua Yan and controls half of the Dongxia Kingdom's treasury.

This morning, I discovered the evidence that my father had hidden. Master Lin was also present. Master Lin's husband had just been appointed Minister of Works. They all stood on my side.

Hua Yan also has a share with Mrs. Lin, who is the wife of the Minister of Revenue Qu Yuanxun.

And Prince Jing, General Han has been with him in the border town for many years. Even if he doesn't help us, he will help himself and get rid of the Seventh Prince."
