In the back room of the dormitory, Zhan Wenlin dismissed all the maids and sat alone in front of the dressing table. She supported her chin with her hands and looked at the white clouds and birds in the sky through the small square window.
His dull eyes flickered slightly when he heard Zhan Wenxuan's voice. His face, which had been expressionless for many days, now showed a slight hint of happiness.
Zhan Wenxuan walked into the room, and Zhan Wenlin also walked out. Looking at his brother, the expression on his face made him feel aggrieved.
"Brother Qi——" Zhan Wenlin called out weakly. She didn't hear Zhan Wenxuan's response, and she felt a little unhappy. She couldn't help but said angrily: "Brother Qi doesn't come to Changning Palace, I will forget to pay him back."
Now that I have you as my seventh brother——"
Zhan Wenxuan knew about Zhan Wenlin's awkwardness, but this girl was half responsible for today's result.
In the few days since she was grounded, many people in the palace began to speculate, wanting to see if this girl had lost her Sacred Heart. Her biological mother was dead, and her brother was suffering from narcolepsy.
Even if Concubine De is their adoptive mother, isn't there still Zhan Wenyu? Could it be that his biological son is left alone and he takes care of these two siblings?
The palace maid quickly served the brewed tea and then quickly retreated. At Zhan Wenxuan's signal, she closed the doors and windows and retreated farther away.
Faced with Zhan Wenlin's angry words, Zhan Wenxuan didn't take it to heart. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you angry with your brother? I haven't come to see you in the past few days. Is that right?"
I went to check the evidence provided by Su Wan."
When Zhan Wenlin heard this, she couldn't help being shocked. At this time, she and Zhan Wenxuan were sitting face to face. In order to hide the panic in her eyes, she had to lower her head.
However, when Zhan Wenxuan saw Zhan Wenlin's behavior, he didn't have much reaction. After all, she was his biological sister, and it was pointless to reprimand her at this point.
"Lin'er, tell me, Brother Seven, what happened back then?"
Zhan Wenxuan looked at Zhan Wenlin and saw all the signs of her guilty conscience.
Zhan Wenlin felt the eyes staring at her head, suppressed the panic in her heart, and looked up at Zhan Wenxuan. She lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip. Although her face was full of reluctance, she knew in her heart that
There must be an outcome to this matter.
After a long while, he discussed with Zhan Wenxuan: "Seventh brother, Lin'er will tell you what happened. Can you promise Lin'er to forget it after hearing it?"
Now, in all the palaces and courtyards, who is not waiting to see her joke? Even if the incident in the Imperial Study Room did not reach the harem, what happened in the Yongning Palace was known to everyone in the harem.
Zhan Wenlin doesn't want to become the laughing stock of various palaces and courts like she did five years ago...
Zhan Wenxuan didn't speak, only nodded slightly. Seeing him like this, Zhan Wenlin told him everything about that year.
But when talking about Su Wan, Zhan Wenlin felt very awkward and would only use "that woman" instead.
Zhan Wenxuan listened silently. When he knew this half-truth, he couldn't help but secretly curse himself as a bastard. Only at this moment could he understand how desperate Su Wan's "no need" was.
Zhan Wenlin knew that what she had committed was a serious crime of false accusation. According to Zhaoyue's law, it would be impossible for someone of her level to be released in less than ten or eight years.
However, she can still live well in her palace now. She can only say that she was reborn well, and she is extremely lucky.
But it's true that she doesn't like Su Wan, and it's also true that she doesn't want Su Wan to pester Zhan Wenxuan. That day, Su Wan personally stamped the seal on the divorce letter, and everything went as she wished. You should be happy.
But she discovered that her brother had developed a strict obsession with Su Wan. If not, why did he come to Yongning Palace to find her, insisting on getting the "truth"?
"That's how the whole thing happened. Seventh Brother had promised Lin'er before, so just let it go -"
Zhan Wenxuan's expression was very ugly, and Zhan Wenlin didn't dare to say anything more. After saying what he just said, she said again: "It's getting late, Brother Qi should leave the palace early. Lin'er has been doing this for a few days I'm not feeling very energetic today, so I want to rest first..."
