Du Zhimiao's hand holding the envelope trembled.

He also looked at An Ning with surprise. Perhaps he didn't expect that he would know his identity.

He quickly replied, "Yes, my father Du Jianghong."

"Give me the letter." An Ning said quickly.

Du Zhimiao handed the letter with both hands.

An Ning quickly opened the blood-stained letter and looked at the pen and ink written inside. It was indeed written by Du Jianghong.

After reading it, An Ning couldn't help feeling heavy.

When she parted with Mobei, she once told Du Jianghong that Daxuan could accommodate him.

But Du Jianghong was unwilling to defect to Daxuan and chose to refuse.

An Ning always felt that Du Jianghong would not be so smooth when he returned, so he finally wrote down an address and contacted people. After all, it was difficult for Du Jianghong to see her directly at the palace, but it was easy to see Yan Jinyao. Once Yan Jinyao received the news, Yan Jinyao naturally knew how to contact her.

Now this letter shows the Du family being executed by the Cang Kingdom's Emperor. Du Jianghong probably didn't expect that his iron bones and loyalty would be exchanged for such cruel revenge from Cang Kingdom. In order to protect his only lifeline of the Du family, Du Jianghong tried his best to send his son Du Zhimiao out of Cang Kingdom and asked him to come to Wenzhou to find her.

"This is the place you are looking for. Why don't you come to find Yan Jinyao directly, but choose to beg?" An Ning asked in a hunch.

I was still very sad when I heard the news that the Du family had been executed.

"I have been looking for it, but I was driven out by the guards at the door and said that it was not even a cat or a dog who could see the second head of the house and told me not to come here again!" Du Zhimiao replied, "I just wanted to be a beggar, if I could meet Yan Jinyao."

An Ning's face darkened.

Uncle Zhang quickly understood and called the guard.

As soon as the guard came in, he naturally recognized the little beggar at first sight and said angrily, "Why did you come in? Didn't you say that we don't accept beggars here, don't beg here?!"

"He said he was looking for Yan Jinyao, why did you drive him away?" An Ning was angry.

When he thought of Du Zhimiao suffering a lot along the way, he became a little more angry with the guards.

The guard was so scared that he knelt on the ground, "Little, Miss... During this period, because our Anji business is booming, there are endless beggars coming to Anji's mansion to ask for food. We all helped one by one before, but later more and more people came, and there were long queues every day. Some people were not even beggars pretending to be beggars to beg. The second leader said that we could not continue like this, and we did not open temples, so we told us not to deal with beggars in the future."

Yan Jinyao was beside him and hurriedly said, "Yes, this happened before. I told the guards about it. I didn't expect that someone really came to me."

An Ning pursed her lips.

He also knew that the guards were following orders to do things, and she had not told Yan Jinyao about this alone.

"Go down." An Ning ordered.

The guard left quickly.

"The others are going down too, I will chat with Du Zhimiao alone."

Yan Jinyao quickly got up and took An Youyou away.

In the room, only An Ning and Du Zhimiao were left.

An Ning said, "I believe your father asked you to come to me and should know my identity."

Du Zhimiao quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Caomintang meets the Queen."

An Ning looked at Du Zhimiao's humble appearance.

In Cang Kingdom, Du Jianghong was the prime minister who was inferior to ten thousand people, and Du Zhimiao, as the legitimate son of the Du family, was naturally also of noble status.

Now it has fallen to this point.

"Get up quickly." An Ning quickly got up and personally helped Du Zhimiao up.

Du Zhimiao seemed extremely respectful.

"Your father..."

Du Zhimiao lowered his eyes. He was originally displaced by his relatives, but he was not as depressed as he imagined.

"My Du family has been killed, so I escaped by chance."

"I advised your father to follow me to Daxuan Country." An Ning said regretfully.

"My father said that, that's why my father asked me to come to you. In this world, the only person my father can still believe is the Empress." As he said that, Du Zhimiao knelt on the ground again.

"Get up." An Ning and his wife were both together, "Since your father entrusts you to me, I will naturally treat you well."

"Thank you, Empress."

"I will set off to return to the palace the next day." An Ning said, "You have two choices. First, stay in Wenzhou. Wenzhou is my private business territory. There are many shops to do here. If you stay, I can let Yan Jinyao teach you how to do business, and you will definitely ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing in the future."

Du Zhimiao listened quietly without interrupting it.

"Second, you can follow me back to the palace, but if you want to go back, you must change your name and identity. You should also be very clear that no matter how the Du family was wronged, for Cang Kingdom, you are the descendant of the criminal minister. Although Cang Kingdom is now respecting the Daxuan Kingdom, it is also a relationship between a friendly country on the surface. If my Daxuan Kingdom blatantly protects you and passes it back to Cang Kingdom, it will be difficult for me Daxuan to explain."

"I am willing to hide my name and follow the Empress back to the palace." Du Zhimiao answered firmly without hesitation.

An Ning actually guessed that he would make such a choice.

To put it bluntly, staying in Wenzhou means letting go of past grievances, accepting the fact that the Du family was executed, being an ordinary person indifferently, and spending the rest of his life. Follow her back to the palace, learning power, secretly fostering power, and finding the right time to return to China to take revenge.

Obviously, Du Zhimiao chose the second one.

An Ning didn't ask much, "Just make your own decision."

"Xie Niangniang."

"I will erase everything about you here in a while, and from then on you will be called..." An Ning thought for a while, thinking about his name, "Please take my surname, and it is An Ji. It means peace and good luck."

"Yes." Du Zhimiao respectfully, "Anji meets the Empress."

"You go and wash first, treat the wound, and change your clothes." An Ning said, "I have arranged other things and I am telling you."

"Thank you, Empress, Anji."

An Ning sounded a little louder at the door of the room, "Uncle Zhang!"

Zhang Wenhe quickly opened the door and came in respectfully, "Miss."

"Take Anji to wash and buy him some suitable clothes."

Zhang Wenhe was stunned.

"From then on, his name is Anji, and I brought my entourage from the palace to accompany Youyou to play." An Ning said bluntly.

Zhang Wenhe immediately understood, "Yes, then I'll take Anji to wash up."

Anji bowed to An Ning again before leaving.

Walk out of the door.

An Youyou hurriedly leaned over, "Du..."

An Youyou can't remember his name anymore.

I only said it once, so I was too responsible.

"Princess, my name is Anji." Anji said quickly.

An Youyou was stunned, "My mother told you about our identity?"

"yes."

An Youyou frowned.

Didn’t this mother just now even dislike him for wanting to leave? Now she turned her back on her face.

Women are true and changeable.

"Where are you going?" An Youyou looked at Zhang Wenhe and took An Ji away, and asked quickly.

"Miss told me to take Anji to wash."

"I'll go, I'll go." An Youyou said excitedly, "I just agreed to An..."

"Anji." Anji respectfully.

"I promised Anji to take her to the hot springs. Uncle Zhang, please go and do your business, I will take Anji there." As he said that, An Youyou quickly reached out to pull Anji.

Anji's fingers moved slightly.

His dark eyes looked at An Youyou.

Zhang Wenhe has always been doting An Youyou. As long as it does not threaten her safety, he will agree.

At this moment, Zhang Wenhe thought for a while and said, "Then I'll prepare clothes for Anji, Miss, please be careful."

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhang."

Zhang Wenhe nodded.

I thought that there would be no danger in the mansion.

Zhang Wenhe left respectfully.

An Youyou grabbed An Ji's hand and was about to go to the hot spring pool.

Anji didn't move.

An Youyou frowned, she looked back at An Ji, "What's wrong?"
