Before this, Wen Si, who had lost too much blood, only kneeled in the imperial study for a short while. When she stood up and left, she felt a little dizzy.
But she forced herself not to lose her manners in front of His Majesty, and wanted to take a rest in the carriage. However, as soon as she came out of the imperial study, her vision went dark and she couldn’t see clearly in front of her. The next second, she bumped into someone as Eunuch De exclaimed “Your Highness the Regent”.
Regent?
After being supported by someone, Wen Si bit the tip of her tongue hard. The pain made her mind much clearer.
When she looked up and saw who was holding her, even though that cold face was extremely handsome, she was frightened and her heart skipped a beat.
Who in the entire Ming Dynasty didn’t recognize that iconic silver hair?
This is the Ming Dynasty’s god of war who has killed countless people, His Royal Highness the Regent of the current dynasty – Beichen Yuan.
“I have been disrespectful, Your Highness the Regent, and I beg your forgiveness.”
Wen Si quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
What she was afraid of was certainly not the regent’s reputation as a killer. After all, the Ming Dynasty could be so stable today, all thanks to this prince.
She just heard before that His Royal Highness the Regent hated women getting close to him.
Before he returned to Beijing, bureaucrats along the way sent several women to Beichen Yuan, but the next day all the women died, and each of them had their hands chopped off.
It is said that it was because their hands touched His Royal Highness the Regent that he ordered them to be chopped off.
Even if the rumors are not credible, Wen Si has to be cautious now.
She carefully apologized to Beichen Yuan.
Fortunately, the prince did not take her seriously. He just glanced at her lightly, and as soon as she stood up, he immediately withdrew his hand, said nothing, and walked straight past her to the imperial study.
Wen Si thought to herself: This prince really hates women. I’d better stay away from her if I meet her again in the future.
But what she didn’t know was that after she stood up and followed Eunuch De away, the man who had already walked into the imperial study suddenly turned around and looked at her.
After seeing the scars on her back, the handsome man froze in place.
Back to the Imperial Study——
“Someone else’s?”
When the little emperor heard this, he immediately knew who this “someone else” was, “Could it be that the emperor’s uncle ran into Wen Si?”
“Wen Si?”
Knowing that his uncle had fought in the war for many years and had just returned to the capital, so he was not very familiar with the people in the capital, the little emperor explained to him: “She is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, the daughter of Aunt Lan.”
Beichen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly: “So she is the apple of the eye of the Duke of Zhenguo.”
The little emperor smiled and waved his hand.
“She is no longer the apple of the Duke’s eye.”
Now everyone in the capital knows that the Duke of Zhenguo brought back another daughter from somewhere half a year ago, saying that she was the daughter of his benefactor.
But anyone smart enough could see that there was a clear resemblance between Wen Yue and the Duke of Zhenguo’s eyebrows and eyes.
The one who repays the benefactor?
It would be strange if this wasn’t their biological child.
“I never thought that the Duke of Zhenguo, who claimed to be noble and arrogant, was actually so complicated. For the sake of a mere illegitimate daughter, he forced his own daughter to become a nun. It’s true that no one in the capital has a pure heart.”
The little emperor sneered disdainfully.
Just as he was sighing, Beichen Yuan, who was standing beside him, showed a hint of surprise on his handsome face after hearing his words.
“Who do you think wants to become a nun?”
“Wen Si, she escaped to the palace before dawn with wounds all over her body, begging me to help her.”
The little emperor sighed, “Uncle, you also know that Aunt Lan once took good care of me. I can’t refuse her, so I can only agree to give her a chance.”
Such a beautiful girl, who seems to be just coming of age, wants to become a nun at such a young age…
This was something Beichen Yuan had not expected.
“What chance did you give that little girl?”
Beichen Yuan suddenly became curious.
“I plan to select a noble lady to go to Shuiyue Temple to pray for the country, so I will let her go to see Master Mochou. As long as Master Mochou chooses her, I will agree to her.”
The little emperor said with a smile.
“But Master Mochou is very picky. I think she will most likely return disappointed.”
The test that the young emperor gave to Wen Si sounded easy, but everyone who had come into contact with Master Mochou knew that Master Mochou of Shuiyue Temple was an extremely stubborn old stubborn person.
Not to mention the young emperor, even if the late emperor stood in front of her, he would not give her any face.
If she thinks Wen Si is not capable, then Wen Si will never have a chance.
Therefore, the young emperor was certain that Wen Si would suffer a setback if she went to Shuiyue Temple, and it would be even better if she could give up the idea of becoming a nun.
After all, he didn’t really want to send Aunt Lan’s daughter to become a nun.
Having said that, Beichen Yuan thought of the little girl who stood up again after falling down once. Even though she was still injured, she no longer staggered, but walked away with firm steps. He did not comment on the little emperor’s words.
Wen Si didn’t know at this time that the opportunity she got was actually not very promising.
But even if she knew, she would never give up.
In the carriage, Wen Si changed into a set of clean clothes that Eunuch De had prepared for her.
Apparently the father-in-law had already noticed the injury on her back, and thoughtfully put a bottle of medicine and some bandages there.
Unfortunately, the injury was on the back, so Wen Si could only treat it casually.
Then he filled a small bottle with the stream water in the space, but instead of using it to wash the wound, he drank a small sip directly.
This stream water can heal human wounds, so I guess drinking it directly would also have some effect.
She doesn’t need her wounds to heal quickly now, but she must keep her mind clear.
As Wen Si expected, after taking that small sip, her originally gloomy head felt as if a breeze had blown over it, dispersing all the dust and haze, and she soon felt much more refreshed.
After regaining her spirits, Wen Si immediately began to investigate.
She didn’t know the nun at Shuiyue Temple, but since His Majesty knew that nun, then the eunuch De who sent her there must also know her.
Wen Si thought about it and took out a few gold leaves from the space.
When she decided to leave the Wen family by becoming a nun, she had already packed up some of the things in her room and put them into the space.
Especially gold, silver and jewelry.
Although these things are nothing but her possessions after she became a nun, they will be of great use to her if she wants revenge.
So Wen Si made a lot of preparations.
Not only that, there’s also her mother’s dowry. She’ll have to find a way to go back and move all of her mother’s things away in the future.
Otherwise, her brothers would just take it all away for Wen Yue.
“Eunuch De, I am really sorry to trouble you today.”
Wen Si lifted a corner of the car curtain and curled the corners of her lips when she saw Xiao Dezi outside the car.
