Chapter 128 Confessing Their Identity to Each Other
Wen Xiashu was so frightened that her face turned pale. She waved her hands hurriedly, "Lord Yan, it wasn't me, it was... it was Madam Luo. She arranged everything. She wanted to buy the land in the village, but Xia bought it first. Madam Luo holds a grudge against her. She has said several times that she wants to kill Xia."
"Wenxi is your man, how dare you say you have no arrangements?" Yan Heng's eyes narrowed.
"No, no, absolutely not. Madam Luo is the housekeeper of the Wen family. She has the power to arrange things for Wenxi. She said she wanted to borrow a few people from Wenxi to help her set up the farm, and I agreed. Who would have thought... who would have known that she was such a vicious person and actually wanted to kill Madam Xia. Mr. Yan, you should report to the police immediately and have Madam Luo arrested and brought to justice!"
Yan Heng raised her eyebrows lightly, "I will ask the people from the Dali Temple to investigate this matter, Fourth Miss Wen!"
Wen Xiashu was very nervous. Should she let the Dali Temple investigate?
We have to notify her family immediately, otherwise she will be dead!

Yan Heng found two wet nurses overnight who were in good health, had good morals, and had stable family relationships.
Heying brought two wet nurses to take care of the child.
Xia Xiaorou was worried about her child, so she used the excuse of wanting to see Song Yuan and went to Yanyuan with Chu Xianyun.
Fortunately, Yan Heng was not at the village, so she successfully took the baby in.
"Madam Xia, your husband has named the child Yan Sheng." He Ying said with a smile, and showed the name written by Yan Heng to Xia Xiaorou.
Xia Xiaorou opened her eyes wide when she saw the words.
In her previous life, Yan Heng said that if she gave him a son, he would be named Yan Sheng, and if it was a daughter, she would be named Yan Wan.
"What a nice name." Xia Xiaorou said embarrassedly.
"What a good name, a very good name." Chu Xianyun said immediately, gesticulating.
He even picked up the child before Xia Xiaorou.
Because, she told others that the child was picked up by her and she had recognized him as her son, but he was taken away by Yan Heng.
He Ying asked two wet nurses to come out and let them take a look.
They are all ladies with decent looks and good complexions.
Xia Xiaorou was relieved.
After taking care of the child, Xia Xiaorou was reluctant to leave, but at this moment, word came from outside that Yan Heng was back.
Chu Xianyun patted Xia Xiaorou's arm gently, followed He Yingzi and the two wet nurses, and took the child to the greenhouse next door.
Xia Xiaorou looked towards the door and saw Yan Heng, dressed in a light green robe, walking in slowly.
"Mr. Yan." Xia Xiaorou lowered her eyes and knelt down to bow to Yan Heng.
Yan Heng walked up to her and held her in his arms.
He pinched her chin, a smile on his lips, "It's rounder than before. You were too thin before, but now it's just right."
Ever since Xia Xiaorou gave birth to her baby, Xia Xiaoying has been trying to please her in different ways every day.
When she was pregnant, Xinqing was so anxious that she couldn't eat, and she was worried that Yanheng would find out about the child, so when she was seven or eight months pregnant, she only looked slightly fatter, and her belly was not obvious.
But after giving birth, she was no longer nervous, and with the added nutrition she ate, she did become a little rounder than before.
Yan Heng leaned over and kissed her lips gently, "Can you give me a son now, Miss Xia?"
Xia Xiaorou was startled and looked up at Yan Heng. "You...what are you talking about?"
"Xia Hanlin is your father, and your mother is the daughter of Duke Weiguo. I didn't say anything, right? Xiaorou?" Yan Heng looked at Xia Xiaorou tenderly.
When he returned to Beijing and found out the news, he was shocked.
No wonder he found this little woman different from the women in the village. It turned out that she was the granddaughter of Duke Weiguo.
"So, Mr. Yan wants to kill us all?" Xia Xiaorou raised her little face and looked at Yan Heng without blinking.
Yan Heng's eyes changed slightly, "What is Xiaorou talking about? Why should I kill you?"
Xia Xiaorou pushed Yan Heng away, "Should I call you King Yan? My father's death and the death of my grandparents are closely related to King Yan, right?"
Yan Heng had a complicated expression, "Xiao Rou, listen to me..."
But Xia Xiaorou took two steps back and said, "Miss Wen has been waiting for Mr. Yan for many years. Please don't let her down."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and entered the next room, took Chu Xianyun's hand, and strode out of the manor.
Chu Xianyun was confused, "What's going on? Xiaorou?"
"Nothing. Mr. Yan has a lot of things to do, so we'd better not disturb him." Tears welled up in Xia Xiaorou's eyes.
Chu Xianyun stopped and looked at Xia Xiaorou, "Are you crying?"
Xia Xiaorou took a breath and wiped away her tears, "No, the wind blew into my eyes."
Chu Xianyun pursed her lips and said, "Xiao Rou, but the child is there, are you really not going to go and see him again?"
"Let's talk about it later." Xia Xiaorou pulled Chu Xianyun home, "I have to prepare to leave here."
Chu Xianyun looked at her, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the north and sell food." Xia Xiaorou said, pursing her lips.
I can’t stay in the capital, Yan Heng is here.
She could only go far away.
In her previous life, she fell in love with a manor there.
However, the owner of the farm there would rather leave it empty than sell it.
She was poisoned by Song Liu and was in poor health. She was anxious to see a doctor, so she didn't go again.
Now that she is well, she will stay there for a long time.
-
After Xia Xiaorou left, Yan Heng called out to another guard beside him, Tian Zhen, "Go and urge the people from the Dali Temple and tell them that I, Yan Heng, am waiting for them here. If they don't come, do they want me to try the case myself?"
He looked at her innocently and said, "Yes."
Yan Heng's face was gloomier than ever before.
What happened back then was reversed again and again, and Yan Heng and Lady Xia actually became enemies.
Tian Zhen sighed, turned and left.
-
The next day, people from the Dali Temple came to the village.
The people who came were a temple minister and a steward.
Wei Siqing and Zhao Siwu went to Yan Garden to see Yan Heng first.
Yan Heng said, "I will not interfere in the affairs of the court. However, I hope you two will act impartially."
He spoke in a light tone, but his expression was serious.
How dare these two not act impartially?
"Yes, I understand."
-
The two of them settled down in Yanyuan. Tian Zhen brought people to escort the Wen family over and asked the two people from the Dali Temple to investigate the case carefully.
In the afternoon, Wen Xiashu received an invitation to go to Yanyuan to watch the trial of a case in the Dali Temple.
She looked pale and restless.
I didn't want to go, but the person who delivered the message was from Yan Heng.
She can't go.
Narcissus saw that she looked uneasy and thought of something, "How could the fourth young lady forget such an important thing?"
"What's the big deal?"
"What about Xia's hoarding of grain? She bought 500 carts of grain. What did she want to do? Did she want to rebel? Hoarding grain privately is a serious crime."
"Yes, how could I forget about this?" Wen Xiashu felt a little relieved.
This was something she had thought of, so how could she have forgotten it?
Thinking of this, she was no longer afraid and came to Yanyuan with two maids.
In front of a side hall in Yanyuan, an incense table and chairs were placed.
Sitting at the top were Wei Siqing and Zhao Siwu from the Dali Temple, and sitting on a high-backed chair to their left was Yan Heng.
Next to Yan Heng sat Xia Xiaorou.
Wen Xiashu narrowed her eyes and said, "Xia, let's see how long she can be so proud."
