The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

"Brother Meng, your daughter is fine. We'll talk about this later. I have something to ask you today."

He stared into Meng Shilang's eyes and said seriously: "Back then, I asked you to help me find out the whereabouts of Shi's mother and son. Did you find it later?"

Meng Shilang was relieved to hear that Meng Wenyao was okay, but when he heard that it was Shi Nanan, he picked up the teacup and concealed his emotions.

Then he said calmly and sadly: "I failed Brother Shen's expectations and never found their mother and son."

Meng Shilang has been saying this all these years, and Shen Xiongming has never doubted it. But today, after he saw Shi Nanan with his own eyes, how could he still believe this rhetoric.

He knew that he was somewhat wrong in this matter, and he would understand if Meng Shilang really concealed something.

But having met the real person, he still hoped that Meng Shilang could tell the truth.

He did not return to the main seat, but sat painfully next to Meng Shilang, his voice low and hoarse, recalling the past events.

"Back then, we went to Beijing together to take the exam, and I was lucky enough to become the top scholar in martial arts. It just happened that I was attracted by Princess Fanghui. She was the daughter of King Kang. King Kang was in charge of the Ministry of War at that time. I didn't dare to offend her, and I was anxious to be appointed, so I I didn’t tell her I was married.”

"I thought she was infatuated with me for a while and then left her alone. Who would have thought that she actually planned a hero's rescue of a beautiful woman. Before I could react, she was brought to the emperor to get married."

"Then I will lead the troops to suppress the bandits. Even if I come back from the suppression of the bandits, the soldiers and senior followers around me will still be people arranged by Princess Fanghui. I don't dare to send people to find Shi's mother and son."

"I thought that I would wait for things to settle down before sending someone to pick up the mother and son. But there was a flood in Anzhou that year and everyone died. Those who escaped didn't know where they were. I wanted to find her already. Don’t know where to look.”

Speaking of this, Uncle Yong Ping burst into tears. After all, Shi was officially his first wife, and the two young couples still had a lot of affection.

Besides, back then, he was the one who had failed. After all, it was all his fault.

He wiped away his tears and choked up: "Later, when I was sent to Northern Xinjiang for ten years, I entrusted Meng Xiandi to help me find Shi's mother and son. These years, both mother and son have been a thorn in my heart, Meng Xiandi, Do you know that everyone knows that I am the famous Uncle Yong Ping, but only I know that I don’t even dare to enter the ancestral hall at home, for fear that Mrs. Shi will ask me why I didn’t go to pick up her mother and son in the first place.”

This sincere and heart-to-heart talk made Meng Shilang's eyes red. He had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but in the end he said nothing.

He raised his head, pushed back the tears in his eyes, and took a long breath and said, "Everyone has their own fate. My condolences, Brother Shen."

When Uncle Yongping saw what he said with all his heart and soul, Meng Shilang still refused to let go. He simply didn't want to beat around the bush anymore and asked directly: "Brother Meng Xian, is your adopted son Shi Nanan my son, Shen Chengan? "

His eyes were sharp, and there was an edge in his grief. Meng Shilang was constantly avoiding him when he looked at him.

"Brother Meng Xian, you've had a hard time hiding it from me. Are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"

This is confirmation that Shi Nanan is Shen Chengan.

Meng Shilang took a few sips of tea and finally let out a long sigh: "I didn't mean to hide it from you."

"You entrusted me to search for it, but I really didn't find it. It was a year after you went to northern Xinjiang. My wife went to the temple to offer incense and met Shi's mother and son begging along the road, so she brought them back to the house."

"At that time, you had already married the princess and were still far away in Northern Xinjiang, and Mrs. Shi was already seriously ill. Firstly, it would be embarrassing for her to go to find you. Secondly, her body might not be able to survive to Northern Xinjiang."

Speaking of this, Meng Shilang was moved by the past and couldn't stop crying.

"At that time, there were rumors everywhere about how you and the princess saved the beauty and how you loved each other for the rest of your life. Mrs. Shi is also a self-respecting person, and she is even more afraid that the princess cannot tolerate Nan'an. If she is not in good health, After she left, Nan'an was abused, how could she feel at ease?"

"So, before she died, she entrusted Nan An to me and told me to tell him his life story when Nan An turned eighteen."

"Later, I told Nan An everything and asked him if he wanted to recognize you. He didn't hesitate at all and just said that he would treat me as if he didn't have you as my father."

Uncle Yongping could fully imagine how heartbroken Shi was when he heard the rumors between him and the princess. He could also understand how much Shi Nanan hated him as his biological father when he found out about his life experience.

In this matter, he was the culprit. He was so sad that he couldn't help crying.

It's just that now is not the time to cry. Meng Shilang told Shi Nanan's life experience. He also wanted to send a message to Shi Nanan, but he really didn't want to watch Shen Xiongming perform affectionately here.

"Let him let go of the past. If you are fine, I will go back first."

Uncle Yong Ping, whose front was soaked from crying, stopped his tears with red eyes and stopped Meng Shilang who was about to leave.

"Brother Meng Xian, there is something I haven't told you yet."

While changing out of his wet clothes, he talked about what happened yesterday.

Minister Meng was stunned when he heard this. Fortunately, he was in a hurry to go back to drink tea with his wife, but it turned out that his wife had run away long ago.

"How do you plan to handle this matter?"

Uncle Yongping sighed and said, "I want to wait for Mr. Wu to come over, discuss a compensation plan, and let him take Miss Wu away."

"It's also the best way."

Meng Shilang nodded, thinking that Shi Nan'an was also there, he said: "Why don't you call Nan An over first? Since I have already told you about your affairs, let me just witness it in front of you and your son, so that it can be regarded as recognition of father and son. ”

Uncle Yongping was overjoyed and said gratefully: "My gratitude to my virtuous brother for this child to have what he has today..."

He wiped away his tears and said, "Brother Xian, you know that I am very grateful."

Several people who were still waiting anxiously in the wing heard that Uncle Yong Ping asked Shi Nanan to go over. Wu Qinfang thought they were discussing how to get her away, so she stood up and followed him.

"We need to discuss it together. It's not your turn to make the decision on my matter."

In this case, Meng Wenyao also followed.

When they arrived at the study, Uncle Yongping said speechlessly: "Miss Wu, our two families have some private matters to discuss. As for your stay, how about we discuss it later when your father comes?"

Wu Qinfang saw that her father had not arrived yet, so she reluctantly withdrew. She would not leave the Yongping residence anyway, and she would die in this rich nest.

As soon as Wu Qinfang left, Meng Shilang saw that Meng Wenyao was intact. After nodding, he faced Shi Nanan, patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Shen has already discovered your life experience, and I have told him everything."

The three men were silent at the same time, only Meng Wenyao was confused.

"What is your life experience? What does the second brother's life experience have to do with my uncle?"
