"Ah?" The nun almost fainted after hearing this.

Her eyes widened as she questioned, "Why would he do this? How could Xie Qian be so cruel to him?"

Lin Yiwan whispered, "Because he wanted to return to the Xie family with a legitimate identity and become the head of the Xie family. Now, his conspiracy has been exposed, and he has paid the price. But the tortured Xie Duanfang is only worried about you. He wants to see you!"

The nun almost burst into tears. She nodded hurriedly: "Okay, I'll go see him. Take me to see him right away, please!"

Lin Yiwan asked Haoyue if she still needed to consult the abbess of the nunnery, but was told that she was the abbess, and that her name was no longer Wei Caiyue, but Master Duanchen.

As the two of them got on the carriage back to the city, Master Duan Chen looked a little uneasy.

She asked in a hoarse voice, "Madam Hou, what is your involvement in this matter?"

Lin Yiwan answered honestly, "My mother was also murdered by Xie Qian, so I traced the case all the way to Suzhou City and then found him impersonating Xie Duanfang!"

Master Duanchen said with disgust, "This man has committed countless sins. He will surely go to hell and suffer torture day and night!"

Lin Yiwan thought to herself that she didn't know what happened to Xie Qian after his death, but he must have been in great pain before his death.

His uncle won’t let him off easily!

Moreover, the methods of torture used by the Dali Temple are unbearable for ordinary people!

She curled the corners of her lips in sarcasm, and the murderous look in her eyes flashed away.

The two of them quickly returned to Xie's house, but Master Duanchen hesitated in front of the door and did not dare to go in.

She looked at Lin Yiwan anxiously: "Madam Hou, after not seeing him for so many years, does he still recognize me?"

Lin Yiwan comforted him, "Although Xie Duanfang has suffered greatly, he is still conscious. You are his only concern, the one he holds dear to his heart. How could he forget you?"

Just one sentence made Master Duanchen burst into tears again.

She raised her hand and wiped it randomly and said, "Look at me, I'm already a monk, but I still don't know how to control my emotions. It's really a sin!"

Lin Yiwan spoke slowly, "Laugh when you're happy, cry when you're sad. These are all human emotions. Why should we suppress them? Are we still human? We're just a piece of wood!"

Master Duanchen had never heard such fresh words before. She just felt that the marquis' wife in front of her was not like an ordinary person.

Sure enough, the tension in her heart was greatly relieved. After taking a deep breath, she reached out and pushed the door open.

When she saw the figure on the bed, her tears suddenly welled up again.

She subconsciously cried out, "Master Duan Fang?"

Lin Yiwan couldn't bear to hear or see this. She closed the door carefully and walked quickly to the eaves not far away.

Looking up at the sky, Zhan Yan's figure appeared in my mind.

She didn't know how he was doing now, and she missed him very much.

Once things are done in Suzhou City, she can go to the capital to reunite with him.

Just as she was daydreaming, a pair of large hands suddenly blocked her vision. She was so startled that she was about to insert all the silver needles in her sleeves when the familiar smell of pine resin went straight into her nose, making her heart beat wildly.

She happily took his hand and asked in surprise, "Ah Yan, why are you here? Have you settled everything in Lingnan City?"

He hugged her tightly and said, "No, the emperor told me to wait until the new city lord arrives before leaving Lingnan City. I really missed you, so I secretly ran away to Suzhou City!"

Lin Yiwan rubbed his neck and felt her nose a little stuffy.

She said in a hoarse voice: "A Yan, there is something I want to confess to you!"

He reached out and gently ruffled her messy hair: "Well, tell me, I'm here!"

Just one sentence made her tears roll out unexpectedly.

Oh, she really didn't want to cry!

But her eyes don't listen to her brain.

She has her own ideas!

Zhan Yan was now a little flustered. He wanted to reach out to wipe her tears, but he was worried that his rough fingers would hurt her delicate skin.

He could only ask anxiously, "Wanwan, where is your handkerchief?"

Lin Yiwan remembered that she had wiped Master Duanchen's tears before, so she gave it to her.

She murmured incoherently: "No, no handkerchief!"

Zhan Yan was extremely anxious. What should he do without a handkerchief?

Just when he was in a dilemma, Yinghun suddenly handed him a handkerchief embroidered with orchids and said softly, "My Lord, this is a new handkerchief embroidered by Miss Ling'er. I have kept it as a treasure and have never used it!"

Zhan Yan's face turned dark. He kept it as a treasure, where could he put it?

Forget it, he simply pressed Lin Yiwan's little head against his heart and wiped her tears with his clothes.

After a while, Lin Yiwan finally stopped crying.

She slowly raised her head without saying a word.

Zhan Yan lowered his head and looked: "Let me see, have you cried like a kitten?"

She subconsciously reached out to push him away: "Don't look at it, it's so ugly now!"

Zhan Yan laughed and reached out to hug her to comfort her: "No matter what time, Wanwan is always the most beautiful young lady in my eyes!"

She bit her lip hard and said, "I, I'm not that scumbag's biological daughter. I'm actually very happy in my heart, but when I think about the unknown identity of my biological father, I feel a little worried!"

Zhan Yan had just arrived in Suzhou City and couldn't wait to come to Xie's house. He had never heard such secret news before, and when he heard it suddenly, his face suddenly changed.

He asked in surprise: "Xie Qian is not with your mother?"

When this was mentioned, Lin Yiwan's heart was heaving with anger.

She gritted her teeth and cursed, "That scumbag didn't even want to touch my mother. He drugged her and knocked her out on the wedding night, then ordered someone to find a drunk and lure him into the bridal chamber!"

Zhan Yan's eyes were filled with murderous intent when he heard this. He said angrily, "That scumbag, I will tear him into pieces right now. He dared to bully your mother like this. If he can get a piece of good meat, it will be considered as mercy!"

Lin Yiwan reached out and grabbed him. "It's not too late to deal with him when we get back. He's in trouble in his uncle's hands anyway. The most important thing now is to deal with Xie Duanfang. Let's see if he wants to live or die. He's been tortured terribly by Xie Qian!"

Zhan Yan kissed her forehead: "Well, no matter what you do, I will accompany you!"

A moment later, Master Duanchen walked out of the house.

Her eyes were badly swollen, obviously she had cried a lot.

She didn't expect that there was a handsome man beside Lin Yiwan. When she saw Zhan Yan, she felt a moment of awkwardness.

Lin Yiwan introduced: "This is my husband, Zhan Yihou and Zhan Yan!"

Nun Duanchen had heard of this war god of the Sheng Dynasty. She bowed respectfully and said, "I, Nun Duanchen, pay my respects to Marquis Zhan Yi!"
