Chapter 196: The Truth of Origin
After carefully examining Jeremy Lin's head, the doctor found that Jeremy Lin's injuries were not very serious, just some bleeding, but it would not cause any damage to the body, and there would be no other accidents.
"Since it's okay with my current injury, I'm going to leave Dayong now, and we can take advantage of this opportunity to get An Ning back." Jeremy Lin was not worried about the injury on his head at all, and he wanted to sit up after helping the doctor to bandage the wound for him.
Beiye Xuan only symbolically persuaded him: "You better stay for one more day before leaving, now that Dayong has no place for her to stay, she is more likely to continue to return to Nanban, and then keep hibernating, and wait until the right time to make a move." "An Ning is much smarter than they imagined, how could it be that Jeremy Lin could guess it in a sentence or two?
Jeremy Lin waved his hand and insisted on getting up from the bed: "No matter what, I have to look for it, otherwise my heart is really not calm at all." Speaking of which, this little princess Anning has also disturbed them for so many days.
Kitano nodded and let Jeremy Lin go back.
Just a few days after Jeremy Lin left, Su Xiaoya heard from Beiye Xuan that the Nanban King had ordered that anyone who could capture Princess An Ning alive could get a hundred taels of gold, even if they couldn't capture it alive, even if it was a complete corpse, the Nanban King promised to exchange it for a hundred taels of silver.
"This ...... I'm afraid these southern barbarians are already crazy, right? What's more, the corpse is also money, maybe some people don't care if they die or not in order to be able to successfully arrest An Ning. Su Xiaoya frowned, she felt that this Nanban King was a little too cruel as a father.
Kitano Xuan smiled, he didn't think this Nanban king was cruel, after all, An Ning was obviously crazy now, if the Nanban king protected his daughter like this again, unless he didn't want to continue to be friends with Dayong.
"None of this is something we can worry about, since the king of Nanban has this will, it must not be long before An Ning will be arrested. It's just that this time it hurt Jeremy Lin, he rushed all the way from Nanban, not only did he not do anything, but he also smashed his head, and now he has returned to Nanban in a gray way, and I don't know if his subordinates are about to laugh crazy. "Kitano Xuan's malice towards Jeremy Lin is getting shallower and shallower, in fact, as long as Jeremy Lin doesn't keep staring at Su Xiaoya, Kitano Xuan is willing to treat Jeremy Lin as a friend.
In the Nanban Palace, the Nanban King sat on his throne alone, looking at the dark hall, and the whole person was a little dazed.
"An Ning, are you here?"
After a long time, the Nanban King suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, looking at the dark figure at the door, the Nanban King's whole person relaxed.
This man is none other than Anning.
She finally escaped from Dayong, and it didn't take long to hear her father offer her life at a high price. Didn't she always say that she was the most noble princess in Nanban? Why is her life being rewarded at a high price now?
An Ning couldn't stand his father treating him like this, so he rushed back to Nanban day and night, and even used up all his savings, just to be able to question him properly in front of the king of Nanban.
"Why? Didn't you always say that I was your favorite daughter? Why would you do this to me? One hundred taels of gold, father, is your favorite daughter only worth these hundred taels of gold?! An Ning burst into tears as she spoke, and her whole body was trembling.
The Nanban King laughed: "If this king doesn't say this, will you still come to the palace to see me?" ”
"It's been more than ten years, I should tell you some things, if you keep hiding it like this, sooner or later it will wipe out our father-daughter relationship for so many years." The Nanban King sighed and took out a small jade pendant from his arms.
An Ning looked at the Nanban King with a puzzled face, she didn't understand what the Nanban King wanted to do with this move, she came to the Nanban King tonight just to confront him, not to catch up on the past.
The Nanban King looked at the jade pendant and smiled: "You may not remember this jade pendant, it was given to you by your biological mother and placed on you when you first came to this king." ”
An Ning sneered, she didn't remember what her biological mother looked like, even if it was? She has lived for more than ten years, and she has never felt her mother's love, so why should she keep her biological mother in her heart? Just smiling and smiling, An Ning finally noticed that something was wrong: "You said biological mother? What does that mean? ”
The Nanban King took the jade pendant in his hand and continued towards An Ning: "It's all my fault, it's because I failed to take care of you, and I actually made your life like this...... If your mother knew that you had become like this, what face would I have to face her? How else can I say that I didn't take good care of her daughter at all? ”
"What are you talking about! Am I not your daughter? It's you who have spoiled me since I was a child, what does it have to do with my mother? Don't think that if you talk about my mother, I won't take your life to heart, and I tell you, don't dream. An Ning's heart was flustered, but his face was still extremely calm, as if he hadn't noticed anything.
The Nanban King covered his face and smiled: "An Ning, you and this king are like real father and daughter...... Obviously, you have already guessed a little in your heart, but you still don't want to admit it, even if you deceive yourself, you don't want to admit what you think in your heart now. It's so similar! ”
An Ning stood stunned as if she had been struck by lightning, not knowing what to do.
What real father and daughter? Isn't she a princess? She is the most noble princess of Nanban, and her father is the most pampered on her, how did she become like this?
"I know you won't believe it, but you can ask Jeremy Lin. Take this jade pendant and ask him, and he will tell you everything. The Nanban King stuffed the jade pendant in his hand into An Ning's hand, patted An Ning's hand lightly and said.
If it was in the past, An Ning would have jumped up happily when he knew that he could have such an open opportunity to go to the Lin family to find Jeremy Lin. But now Anning's heart is not only panic, but also fear. She was afraid of some truths, and after she knew something, she would never go back.
An Ning didn't know how he came to Lin's house, but after the guards at the gate of the Lin Mansion saw An Ning coming, they unexpectedly didn't stop An Ning, but instead brought An Ning to Jeremy Lin.
"Tranquility? You...... You know it all? Jeremy Lin was still a little surprised when he saw An Ning, but when he saw the jade pendant in An Ning's hand, he understood everything.
An Ning listened to Jeremy Lin's words, looked up and asked, "Do you know everything?!" Why did my father ask me to come and ask you, what do you know?! ”
Jeremy Lin saw that some things may not be able to hide anything from today, so he had to say: "Actually, very few people know about this matter, you are not the king's biological daughter, your mother is my aunt, we don't know who your father is, but my aunt had a good relationship with the second prince who has not yet been the king, I heard that your father had an accident, and my aunt had no choice but to entrust you to the second prince at that time to take care of you." ”
"Originally, the family also wanted to take you back after the limelight passed, who knew that the second prince became the king the next year, and you naturally became a princess. The king told all of us to keep our mouths shut that you were not a real princess. In fact, Jeremy Lin didn't understand what happened back then, but according to the analysis of the situation at the time, maybe it was because An Ning's biological father was mixed with the political affairs at the time, so the Lin family didn't dare to take An Ning, who was still a baby, back on the cusp.
An Ning was stunned in place, unable to speak for a long time. It turned out that she was really not her father's own daughter: "If you knew everything, why didn't you tell me all these things in the first place?" Why do you want to watch me fall in love with you and have no way to get you?! "If Jeremy Lin had been able to tell the story that the two were actually cousins, maybe it wouldn't have been like this.
Jeremy Lin is also helpless, in this era, it is a normal choice for a married woman to marry her daughter back to her parents' family, and the Lin family thinks that she owes her daughter at the beginning, so she wants to make up for An Ning's granddaughter.
If An Ning wasn't so arrogant and reckless, I'm afraid the Lin family would really let Jeremy Lin marry this aunt's daughter.
"I don't want to say these things, I just want to protect you, I don't want to make you uncomfortable. Now that you know it, you should also know the king's love for you. After so many years, he loves you more than his own daughter, why can't you turn back? "Jeremy Lin didn't want to see An Ning continue to degenerate like this.
However, now An Ning can't listen to anything anymore, she just thinks that what she has done over the years is really ridiculous and ridiculous, but she has always been proud, thinking that she is a princess, and those people should be respectful to themselves like this.
But without the support and favor of the Nanban King, how could she, an impostor princess, be reckless in the palace for so many years?
"It turns out that I have always been wrong, it is I who has failed my father's favor, I have failed him......" An Ning covered her face and cried, she thought of the appearance of the Nanban King she had just seen when she was in the main hall, and he was so old! An Ning regretted it in his heart.
