Ning Wan clenched her fingers slightly, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Take me to see her. Who is she? Who killed my mother back then? I'm afraid she is the only one who knows the reason best!
"
Helian Mochuan nodded. He was hesitating whether to show the thing to Ning Wan. He raised his head and met Ning Wan's calm eyes. This made Helian Mochuan feel a trace of guilt in his eyes.
emotions.
None of this escaped Ning Wan's eyes. Her heart tightened and she had bad thoughts and asked, "Could it be that she was responsible for my mother's death?"
Helian Mochuan shook his head, and finally took out the thing he had been holding in his hand and handed it to Ning Wan. Ning Wan's eyes were shocked when he saw what was in the handkerchief.
"A small jade pendant has the word "han" engraved on it. This jade pendant belongs to the palace, and Ning Wan has seen such a thing before. Even the patterns are exactly the same."
"This is the jade pendant specially carved by our father when we brothers were born. We all wear it with us, and there is only one like this in the world! Su Feng found this jade pendant on Ping Niang's body, Wan'er, this
Why don't you leave this matter to me?" Helian Mochuan didn't want Ning Wan to face this matter.
But Ning Wan shook her head and said: "I believe Aunt Ping, she must have some difficulties!"
In the year when Ning Wan could remember a little bit, she clearly remembered that whenever Aunt Lin and the others made things difficult for her, it was Aunt Ping who protected her. She was beaten to a bloody head by Aunt Lin's people several times, but she couldn't.
Even so, she still protected Ning Wan.
Ning Wan refused to believe that a person who could protect her with his life would end up being the person who harmed her the most.
Arriving at the wing where Pingniang lived, when Ning Wan entered, Pingniang seemed to be sleeping and walked softly, but Pingniang still woke up and she was very vigilant.
"Who is here?" Ping Niang asked, but Ning Wan did not speak.
After being silent for a long time, Ping Niang sat up and asked tremblingly: "Is the eldest lady here?"
Ning Wan looked at her eye sockets where her eyes had been gouged out and her skinny figure. She still had the slightest trace of her former appearance. Ning Wan's eyes turned a little red.
"Aunt Ping, it's me!" It was just a soft voice, but Ping Niang fell down from the bed in excitement.
"Miss, is it really you? I have seen the eldest lady!" After saying that, he kowtowed three times. Ning Wan hurried over to help her up, feeling the dying breath on her body, Ning Wan's
There is a pain in my heart.
"Aunt Ping, how did you become like this?" Ping Niang grabbed Ning Wan's arm and cried out. Because she had no eyes, she had no tears, but she could hear the cries of grief and indignation.
"Miss, the reason why I can live to this day is because I think of meeting the eldest lady one day, eldest lady..."
Ning Wan and Ping Niang hugged each other and cried. After more than ten years of imprisonment, Ping Niang's only belief in surviving was to find Ning Wan. The secret buried in her heart could finally be told to Ning Wan.
Ping Niang couldn't see it, so she touched Ning Wan's face bit by bit with her hands, and touched the place where the birthmark had been. Because the birthmark would protrude partially, it could be touched out with her hands, but Ping Niang couldn't.
But I found that the birthmark was no longer palpable.
"Miss, why is your birthmark missing? My wife said that this birthmark will not disappear until you are eighteen years old."
Ning Wan looked at Ping Niang in surprise and asked, "Aunt Ping, isn't this birthmark innate?"
Ping Niang nodded and said: "Before the lady died, she gave me a medicine. After drinking it, a birthmark will appear on my face. Although it looks ugly, this birthmark will disappear after the eldest lady turns eighteen.
! Madam is worried that the eldest lady’s beauty will become a bargaining chip in the hands of the Duke, and she is worried that you will be married by the Duke to someone you don’t like! "
I have to say that Mrs. Xie had really good intentions. She knew Ning Qingyuan so well that she thought about her daughter's future before she died.
"Aunt Ping, who killed her?" When this question was raised, Ping Niang held Ning Wan's hand tightly.
"Madam committed suicide by taking poison. It was the poisoned wine sent by the servant herself..."
Ning Wan was stunned, with an expression of disbelief on her face. Ping Niang held Ning Wan's hand tightly and said: "Since Madam married the Duke, she has been living a life worse than death! Originally, she should have
She is marrying the prince, but someone interfered and allowed her to marry into the Duke’s palace!”
"The Duke has always known about the relationship between his wife and His Highness the Crown Prince, so he often forced his wife to seek benefits from His Highness, but she always refused. Until something happened to the Crown Prince, the Duke of Guo, who usually respected each other as a guest, suddenly changed.
He was so embarrassed that he beat and scolded the wife without saying a word, and even suspected that the child in the wife's belly was not the Duke's."
Ning Wan knew that Ning Qingyuan was ruthless, but she didn't expect that he would be so ruthless.
"Why did my mother take poison? Was she coerced by someone?" Speaking of this matter, Ping Niang held Ning Wan tighter. She seemed to be a little scared, and her body could not help but tremble.
"Yes... it's the current Holy One. At that time, my wife was seriously ill. One day, the Duke sent the servant away. Someone saw the lady. The servant didn't see clearly who the person was, but the servant picked up a jade pendant..." He said
, Ping Niang began to search around her body, but couldn't find it, so she panicked.
