The autumn wind courtyard has fallen a golden ginkgo leaf, like a layer of beating sunlight, adding a bit of vitality to this slightly deserted courtyard.

Shangguan Yan sat in the courtyard and saw the two of them stand up directly.

Her clothes had changed, but her hair had not been taken care of, and there was a faint smell of burning.

But Shangguan Yan herself doesn't seem to care, her narrow and heroic eyes are not unruly, she is still the shining Shangguan Yan.

"Ahri."

Shangguan Yan showed a faint smile, she rarely seemed to smile like this, her smile was a little stiff, but sincere enough.

This is the second time Shangguan Li has heard this title, and she hasn't said anything yet, Shangguan Bu said a little anxiously.

"Eldest sister, you really want to ......"

"At this point, do you think we can hide it from Ah Li?"

This sentence directly made Shangguan Bu speechless, and he glanced at Shangguan Li, who had no expression.

Yes, he had to admit that when he came back this time, the third sister had really become too much, and he really didn't have the confidence to be able to hide the current Shangguan Li.

Seeing that the topic was on him, Shangguan Li was not polite anymore and said straightforwardly.

"Let's talk, sit."

As he spoke, he pulled over a wooden chair and sat down, and his movements were so natural that he felt as if he had returned to his home.

When the three of them sat down face to face, Shangguan Yan didn't know how to speak for a while.

It's been close to a decade, and it's too much and too much.

"Let's talk about the relationship between the two of us first, they said that you didn't associate with me because I was pregnant with a child and felt that I had lost the face of the Prime Minister's house."

Shangguan Li saw her difficulties and took the initiative to provoke the topic.

"Of course not!"

It was Shangguan Bu who spoke, and he looked angry with his neck as if he was about to rush out and bite someone at any time, but Shangguan Yan glared back with a look.

Shangguan Yan also looked like a real soldier when he sits, there was no straight place on his body, and the whole person sat like a sword that was about to be unsheathed at any time.

She said leisurely.

"It's really not, Ah Li, you used to be too ...... Weak. ”

She paused, and pondered a word that she thought was not so blunt and hurtful.

A black thread hung from the door of Shangguan Li's head.

"You don't have to care so much about my feelings, just say it."

Shangguan Yan nodded, speaking much faster.

"At that time, Aunt Qi was just gone, you were very sad, Zhang Yuanniang pretended to comfort you, but you actually believed it, and used what she gave, and soon after, you began to have a birthmark on your face."

Speaking of this, she stopped and said to Shangguan Li.

"I don't think the thing on your face is a birthmark, I originally wanted to wait for my rank to be higher and find you a better doctor to see. But now that I've heard that you're proficient in medicine, you should be able to spot it yourself. ”

After speaking, she didn't wait for Shangguan Li's reply, and picked up the topic just now.

"I wanted to persuade you to stay away from Zhang Yuanniang, but something suddenly happened at that time."

"How many ladies in the house have died of illness?"

Shangguan Li took a sip of the tea that was already half cool, covering the light in his eyes.

"Well, at that time, everyone in the house was in danger, and my mother wouldn't let me get close to you again...... This is my mother's selfishness, don't blame her. ”

Shangguan Li shook his head.

"Human nature, what happened later?"

"My mother warned me, but you are my sister, so I didn't listen to her. However, after this incident, I also understood that Zhang Yuanniang's strength was far from what we could compete with at that time, so I couldn't tell you the truth directly. ”

"I can't say it, I have to follow you every day and don't let you come into contact with too many things from Zhang Yuanniang, but it seems that I should have failed."

Shangguan Yan looked at Shangguan Li's miserable face, and her eyes showed a little loss.

Shangguan Li shook his head secretly, no, Shangguan Yan's actions are useful.

She felt a little strange before, although the face of the original body has been destroyed, the physique of the body is only slightly worse than that of ordinary people, if it is really a dose of many years, this is impossible.

But now that Shangguan Yan said this, she understood.

Shangguan Yan did help her block most of the spider incense, and the reason why she was still disfigured was actually because the previous poison had not been removed from her body for many years.

If not, it is estimated that this body will not last the day she takes over.

But Shangguan Li didn't say much, it's good to keep some kindness in mind, and announcing it is just the most cutting corners to repay the favor.

Shangguan Yan was still talking.

"Just a few years have passed, although my mother and I really want to help you, but as Zhang Yuanniang's power in the house is getting stronger and stronger, we are all starting to be powerless. Therefore, you can only ensure your minimum food and clothing, and you can't do anything else. ”

"You should have been very bitter all these years."

Shangguan Li held the teacup in his hand and smiled faintly.

"No matter how hard it is, I'm doing well now, you continue."

Shangguan Yan nodded.

"The turning point was about four years ago, when you came home with a child."

"Actually, although Zhang Yuanniang was very disgusted with you at that time, she didn't want to take your life directly, probably because she watched Aunt Qi's daughter survive at her feet, which made her even happier."

"In this case, my presence is actually very embarrassing."

Shangguan Li's head bowed, probably understanding what she meant.

The original body really couldn't make any waves, but Shangguan Yan was different, even if her mother had no status, she was the real eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shangguan Xun has been slow to correct Zhang Yuanniang's position, and Shangguan Yan's status is higher than Shangguan Yue.

Shangguan Yan is so close to Shangguan Li, it is indeed easy for Zhang Yuanniang to have a vicious mind.

Seeing that Shangguan Li understood, Shangguan Yan didn't explain much and continued.

"These things have always existed, but when you came back with an unidentified child, I knew that this was Zhang Yuanniang's best chance to get off the phone."

"Because Xiangye's attitude towards you has also changed. Before, he was just not happy to see you, but after that incident, you lost the face of the Prime Minister, and he was directly disgusted with you. ”

"At this time, it is not appropriate for me to stay by your side any longer, it just so happens that Changyongjun is recruiting, so I will ask Xiangye to make an exception for me to get a quota."

"Anyway, I don't like the intrigues in the backyard of these deep houses, and going out is exactly what I want, but I did leave you behind."

The smile on the corner of Shangguan Yan's mouth was a little bitter.

Xiangye?

Shangguan Yan looked down on Shangguan Xun so much that he didn't even call his father.

Shangguan Bu on the side looked at Shangguan Yan like this, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he stopped talking.

Shangguan Li's gaze wandered back and forth between the two of them for a moment, and his eyebrows narrowed.

Shangguan Yan's words did make sense, but she always felt that something was wrong.
