Seeing that this man was about to confess, Forsythia asked someone to bring him paper, ink, pen and inkstone, preparing to record everything this man would confess to.
"As you said, I am the daughter of a Hun princess, and my father is the leader of the tribe. They all call me Beggar, which actually means princess!" The woman lowered her eyes, "I have a Chinese name, my name is
Helin!”
Meng Duiwan raised her eyebrows slightly. She had heard of this name before. She had heard the story of this miserable marriage princess more than once, and the story of He Lin was also mentioned in it.
Helin lost his mother when he was a child, and his father remarried a wife early. Helin was withdrawn since he was a child, and no one would discipline him. In the end, the queen of the Huns, Princess Zhaoyang, who got married, really couldn't bear to leave him.
His granddaughter suffered like this, so he took her to his side to educate him.
But Princess Zhaoyang still felt sorry for the loss of her mother, so when she treated her, she was extremely pampered, so that outsiders never had a very good opinion of this little princess.
"You are a Huns, why did you come all the way to Lingnan?" Meng Duiwan raised his eyes and looked at He Lin in front of him, "Besides, you probably haven't cleared the customs at all, how did you escape the layers of screening?
Check, he ran all the way from Mobei to Lingnan."
He Lin raised his head and glanced at Meng Duiwan, and then said: "Of course someone helped me forge the customs clearance documents. As for who that person is? You have probably guessed it!"
Meng Duiwan glanced at Forsythia who was recording at the side, and lightly knocked on the table. Forsythia stopped with great foresight.
Meng Duiwan stood up and walked to the cell: "The person who helped you forge customs clearance documents was the seventh prince of our dynasty, Xie Chengshang, right?"
He Lin nodded: "I met Brother Shang when I was in Mobei. At that time, he was drinking with my cousin. He was a handsome man, he spoke well, and he took special care of me. I could tell at a glance that he was a handsome man.
Very nice person.”
Meng Duiwan said nothing, just waiting quietly for her to continue talking.
"Brother Shang said that he has not married yet. He wants to marry an open-minded daughter, not a delicate and pretentious woman like you have here!" He Lin blushed slightly, "He
What he said was nothing more than telling me that he wanted to marry me and that I had always liked him, so when he asked me if I wanted to go back to Dazhou with him, I came back with him without any hesitation."
Meng raised his eyebrows at Wan, but still didn't say anything.
"I originally thought he was going back to the capital to tell the emperor of Zhou Dynasty that he wanted to marry me, but I didn't expect that your prince was so vicious and sent people everywhere to hunt down my brother Shang. We ran all the way and walked all the way.
, stumbled over to Lingnan!" He Lin sighed, "Brother Shang told me that he can't go back, he has no home, and I have never seen Brother Shang crying so sadly!"
Forsythia beside him was already a little impatient. After all, no one wanted to listen. People had been talking about him and his lover. Just when he was about to speak, he was stopped by Meng Duiwan.
"I am a person who can endure hardships, so even if he is no longer a prince, I am still willing to accompany him. Even if I am a country girl, it doesn't matter. As long as I can do anything by his side." He Lin said fiercely.
He raised his head and looked at Meng Duiwan, "We were living a good life because of you. The reason for all this is because of you. If you hadn't sent troops to encircle and suppress us, and even sent people to sneak attack us at night, he and I would never have had any chance.
They won’t get separated!”
Meng Duiwan frowned slightly, she must have heard something strange.
"You mean we sent people to sneak attack you at night?" Meng Duiwan looked at He Lin.
"Yes, we were running for our lives and finally found a place where we could stay temporarily and stably, but as for you, you had to send people to kill us all. Brother Shang and I finally separated because of that night.
The fire completely burned the camp we were staying in, and when I came back to my senses, Brother Shang was gone!" He Lin's eyes turned red as he spoke.
Meng Duiwan looked at He Lin in front of him, and then said calmly: "I don't know if you will believe it, but I can tell you that I have never sent anyone to attack you at night!"
"You have killed so many people, do you still want to quibble about this kind of thing?" He Lin laughed angrily, "If no one attacked us, how did the fire come about?"
"As you said, I have killed so many people. There is no need to lie to you. I have never sent people to attack any camp in the middle of the night, at least not in the past few years. And you just said that there are always people chasing you.
You, as far as I know, no one from the imperial court has found you from beginning to end, so how can we hunt you down?" Meng Duiwan raised his eyebrows slightly, "And you said that you forged documents to get here all the way, the Xiongnu
If someone wants to come to our court and have good relations with me, he can obviously apply for documents in a formal manner, so why should he forge them?"
Helin looked at Meng Duiwan with a puzzled look on his face: "I am a Huns, how can I handle documents in a serious manner?"
"There are many merchants from you in Dazhou. Is it possible that they all forged documents to get in? If your prince knew it when you set out, then you should have a serious document, unless you ran out secretly.
Or maybe you were tricked here." Meng Duiwan looked at He Lin and said coldly, "If I guessed correctly, you should have been kidnapped."
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean I should have been kidnapped? I obviously followed Brother Shang. Brother Shang said that she wrote a letter to my cousin. They knew that I left with him...
…”
"He did write a letter, but I'm afraid it's a threatening letter. I've never been able to figure out how a prince with no prospects could get the Huns to do so many things for him?" Meng Duiwan laughed, "
It turns out that the real reason lies with you."
"What do you mean?"
"You probably don't know that your brother Shang, together with the Huns, is constantly harassing us on the border with North Korea. There are also people who come to Lingnan to cause trouble for us. I really couldn't figure out why at first. Fortunately, you came to our door yourself.
Come on, I finally understand that your brother Shang is not a romantic partner!" Meng Duiwan sneered, "Those who are chasing you are probably your cousin!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Why is my cousin chasing me?" He Lin was a little annoyed.
"Your cousin is not chasing you, but that brother Shang who keeps saying it. He tricked you here and used your life to threaten the King of the Huns to cooperate with him in the rebellion!" Meng Duiwan raised his eyes and looked at Helin, "
Little girl, I'm afraid you have been completely deceived. Maybe he didn't really want to marry you from the beginning to the end, but just wanted the power behind you."
"Impossible, Brother Shang is very good to me..."
"Men, pretending to be nice to you is a very simple thing. Xie Chengshang doesn't have much ability, but fortunately he has a face that can be seen. To deceive a little girl like you who has no scheming intentions, don't
Too simple." Meng Duiwan stood up slowly, "Thanks to you for coming to assassinate me, I know that that bastard Xie Chengshang is still in Lingnan!"
"What do you want to do to him?"
Forsythia on the side couldn't stand it anymore: "You grew up in the palace after all, how come you were raised without any brains? Think about it carefully, if a person really likes you, then
How can he be willing to let you wander around with him and make a home everywhere? It's just that there is something in you that he wants!"
He Lin covered his ears and squatted down: "I won't listen, you are all lying to me..."
Meng Duiwan looked at Helin for a long time, and then sighed: "No one can wake up a person who is pretending to sleep. If you want to lie to yourself, you won't believe anything we say, but you can think about it carefully.
, there are so many women, why do you have to be chosen? Are you better-looking than them, or more beautiful than them? Do you know that the seventh prince was wandering among flowers in his early years, and there were countless beauties around him, except for the one behind you.
