Chapter sixty-fifth of the past

Golden ginkgo leaves fell in Qiufengyuan, like a layer of beating sunlight, adding a little bit of vitality to this slightly deserted yard.

Shangguan Yan sat in the yard and saw the two of them standing up.

Her clothes were changed, but her hair was not taken care of, and she still had a faint burnt smell.

But Shangguan Yan herself didn't seem to care. She didn't fall into her narrow and heroic eyes, and she was still the shining Shangguan Yan.

"Ali."

Shangguan Yan showed a faint smile. She rarely smiled like this. Her smile was a little stiff, but sincere enough.

This was the second time Shangguan Li heard this title. She hadn't said anything yet. Shangguan Bu said anxiously.

"Sister, you really want..."

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

This sentence made Shangguan Bu speechless. He glanced at Shangguan Li with no expression.

Yes, he had to admit that when he came back this time, the third sister really became too many, and he really didn't have the confidence to hide it from Shangguan Li now.

Seeing that the topic was about him, Shangguan Li was not polite and said directly.

"Tell me, sit down."

As he said that, he pulled over a wooden chair and sat down, and his movements naturally seemed to be back at his own home.

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

This is a matter of nearly ten years, too many and complicated.

"Let's talk about our relationship first. They said that you stopped interacting with me because I was pregnant with a child."

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

"Of course not!"

The person who spoke was Shangguan Bu. He was angry with his neck, as if he wanted to rush out to bite at any time, but Shangguan Yan glared back with a look.

When Shangguan Yan sat, he looked like a real soldier. He had no place that should be straight, and he was bent in his body. He sat in a sword that was about to be unsheathed at any time.

She said slowly.

"It's true, Ali, you were too...weak before."

She paused for a moment and thought it was not so straightforward and hurtful.

A black thread hung on Shangguan Li's forehead.

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

Shangguan Yan nodded, speaking much faster.

"Aunt Qi didn't have it at that time, and you were very sad. Zhang Yuanniang pretended to comfort you, but you actually believed it and used what she gave it. Soon after that, there was 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 until my official rank is higher and I can find a better doctor for you to see. But now I heard that you are proficient in medical skills, and you should be able to detect it yourself."

After saying that, she did not wait for Shangguan Li's reply and continued the topic just now.

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

"Several wives in the mansion died of illness?"

Shangguan Li took a sip of the half-cold tea and covered the clear light in her eyes.

"Well, everyone in the mansion was in danger at that time, so my mother would not let me approach you anymore... This is my mother's selfishness, don't blame her."

Shangguan Li shook his head.

"What about human nature?"

"Mom told me, but you are my sister, so I didn't listen to her. But afterwards, I also understood that Zhang Yuanniang's strength is far from what we could compete with at that time, so I can't tell you the truth directly."

"I can't say that, I have to follow you every day and not let you contact too much from Zhang Yuanniang, but it seems that I should have failed."

Shangguan Yan looked at Shangguan Li's terrible face, and a look of loss appeared in her eyes.

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

She felt a little strange before. Although her original body's face had been destroyed, her physical condition was only slightly worse than that of ordinary people. If it was really a dose of many years, it would be impossible.

But now she understood what Shangguan Yan said.

Shangguan Yan did help her block most of the spider fragrance. The reason why she was still disfigured was actually because the previous poison was not removed in her body over the years.

If not, I guess this body would not be able to support the day she took over.

But Shangguan Li didn't say much, just remember some of the kindness in his heart, and saying it is just the most cutting corners to repay kindness.

Shangguan Yan was still talking.

"A few years have passed. Although my mother and I want to help you, as Zhang Yuanniang's power in the mansion becomes stronger and stronger, we are both unable to do it. So we can only ensure that you have the lowest food and clothing, and we can't do anything else."

"You should have suffered a lot over the years."

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

"No matter how hard I am, I'm living a good life now, you can 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. Maybe she was watching Aunt Qi's daughter survive under her feet, so she would be happier."

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

Shangguan Li nodded, probably understanding what she meant.

The original body really can't cause any trouble, but Shangguan Yan is different. Even though her mother has no status, she is the real lady in the prime minister's family.

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

But Shangguan Yan was so close to Shangguan Li, which was indeed easy for Zhang Yuanniang to have a vicious mind.

Seeing that Shangguan Li understood, Shangguan Yan did not explain much and continued.

"These things have always existed, but when you come back with an unknown child, I knew this was Zhang Yuanniang's best phone call."

"Because the Prime Minister's attitude towards you has also changed. He just didn't like to see you before, but after that, you lost the Prime Minister's Mansion and he directly disliked you."

"It's not appropriate for me to stay by your side at this time. Chang Yongjun just so happened to recruit people, so I asked the prime minister to let me make an exception and get a place."

"Anyway, I don't like these intrigues in the backyard of deep houses by nature. It's just my wish to go out, but I did leave you behind."

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

Prime Minister?

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

Shangguan Bu, who was standing beside him, looked at Shangguan Yan like this, opened his mouth to say something, but he wanted to say something but stopped.

Shangguan Li's eyes wandered back and forth between the two for a moment, and lowered her eyebrows.
