Looking at Han Yunxi, Long Tianmo didn't quite understand, but he wouldn't refuse to help.
Although imperial father had bestowed rewards upon him, he owed Han Yunxi a debt of gratitude for saving his life. He was planning to find a chance to repay her as well. Moreover, a general amnesty was an excellent reason to win over the hearts of the people. After so many years of seclusion, he'd have to make his first move!
Long Tianmo nodded and said, "This Crown Prince's illness has been cured. Granting amnesty is a good idea. Imperial Aunt, you can go back first. When Imperial Father comes later, I will report this matter."
Although she knew that Long Tianmo would agree, she didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Han Yunxi was overjoyed and looked at this Crown Prince in a new light.
Before leaving, Long Tianmo called out to her, "Imperial Aunt, when you see Imperial Uncle, please send my regards. Tell him that after I recover, I will go and see him."
Han Yunxi nodded. From what she knew, Long Fei Ye and the other princes, including the Crown Prince, weren't very close. Long Tianmo's actions were obviously to curry favor with Long Fei Ye.
However, although his illness had been cured, Long Fei Ye didn't come to see him. It was really disappointing.
Of course, Han Yunxi couldn't care so much. Her heart was filled with Han Congan's matter.
Han Yunxi didn't go out after returning to the Duke of Qin's residence. She kept waiting for news and occasionally let Chen Xiang go out to ask around.
Unexpectedly, it was already the afternoon of the second day, and the notices on the streets were still there. The streets were still full of discussions. It was said that several branches of the Han Family had gone to visit Han Congan in prison, but they couldn't see him. When they came back, they fought over the family property.
Although Long Tianmo's appearance had a high chance of success, Han Yunxi was still nervous when she didn't get a definite answer. After all, time was tight.
At night, Han Yunxi stood by the window and looked at the capital's night sky with a frown. Tomorrow was the last day. What was the situation with Long Tianmo? What was the truth behind Madam Tianxin's difficult labor? What secrets were there between Lady Tianxin and Han Congan?
That night, he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
However, good news came the next morning.
Chen Xiang knocked on the door while shouting, "Mistress, Mistress, His Majesty has issued a general amnesty early in the morning. Except for the crime of rebellion, all capital crimes have been changed to permanent imprisonment! He said that the Crown Prince personally requested for this! "
Han Yunxi almost jumped out of bed. After washing up and getting dressed, she didn't even have time to eat and immediately ran to the prison.
The Universal Amnesty Order had just been issued, and the news spread the fastest in the Imperial Prison. Han Congan heard a lot of discussions from afar, and even saw a few prisoners on death row being escorted out of their cells.
"I heard that it was the Crown Prince who proposed a general amnesty. Hehe, this time, we can be considered to have the Crown Prince's blessing!"
"That's right, we'll be able to get out soon, right?
"Look, those death row prisoners have been taken away. They're probably going to let them go! Hehe, it will be our turn soon! "
… …
The sounds of discussion filled the entire prison cell. Han Congan leaned against the metal door to listen, his cloudy eyes brightening. He sighed in admiration in his heart. Why didn't he realize that Han Yunxi was so smart? She didn't beg Emperor Tianhui, but the Crown Prince instead. She actually came up with the idea of a general amnesty!
Was this really the same Han Yunxi from before?
He always felt that this daughter couldn't compare to her mother, but now his opinion was shaken.
Very soon, Han Yunxi arrived. Han Congan's gaze on her changed slightly. "Daughter, you're really smart."
"Looks like you know about His Majesty's general amnesty," Han Yunxi was in a bad mood.
"You should take your father out of the death row prison by now, right?" Han Congan's mental state was clearly much better. Although he was in a sorry state, he stood ramrod straight and had quite the bearing.
Han Yunxi's eyes flashed with ridicule before she asked Coldly, "Then when are you planning to tell me the truth?"
"At the very least, let your father leave this place first." Han Congan was very firm. Most doctors were mysophobic, so he hated the rotting stench of death in this death row prison cell.
Han Yunxi's mocking smile widened. If Han Congan thought he could reach for a yard after getting an inch, then he was gravely mistaken.
She narrowed her eyes and warned coldly, "Han Congan, you can't die now. Do you believe that I can make you live a life worse than death every single day?"
Now that Han Congan had been spared from death, he was no longer a barefooted man. How could he not fear Han Yunxi's threat?
Seeing Han Yunxi's dangerous expression, Han Congan was a little unhappy, but he stopped while he was ahead.
He pointed at the foot of the wall, indicating that Han Yunxi should sit down and talk. Han Yunxi did the same as last time and leaned against the wall, her eyes cold as she stared straight at Han Congan.
Seeing that she was on guard, Han Congan sat down and sighed. "Don't worry, I won't lie to you at a time like this."
"Cut the crap! Answer my question. How did my mother die?! "Han Yunxi said coldly.
Han Congan did not answer her question, but the words he said almost made Han Yunxi's heart stop beating. It was too unexpected!
He said, "Han Yunxi, I can tell you very clearly that I, Han Congan, am not your biological father!"
What!
Han Yunxi could not believe her ears. She was extremely shocked and her eyes unconsciously widened.
Seeing Han Yunxi's shock, Han Congan's eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of sadness. Everyone knew that he had never fulfilled his duty as a father to this daughter, but no one knew how much he wished that this daughter was his own flesh and blood deep in his heart.
It was not only because Han Yunxi had made a fortune that he wished so. Back when Han Yunxi was still in her mother's womb, he had been hoping so.
Unfortunately … he wasn't worthy of that woman.
Han Yunxi recovered from her shock and suddenly grew angry. "Han Congan, you're lying!"
Lady Tianxin was a legend. She was brimming with talent and a benevolent doctor. How could she be a fickle woman? How could she have an illegitimate daughter? Moreover, Han Yunxi would never believe that a man like Han Congan could tolerate an extramarital affair and raise someone else's child!
"I'm not lying to you. I have proof." Han Congan was very calm. Leaving aside Han Yunxi, even anyone in Tianning's capital who had heard of Lady Tianxin's deeds wouldn't believe this.
Still, this was absolutely true. Otherwise, Han Yunxi was still the Han Family's daughter of the first wife and the Duke of Qin's fiancée. Why wouldn't he treat a small poison scar on her face?
"What proof?" Han Yunxi asked anxiously.
"Promise me one thing and I'll tell you everything," Han Congan was very serious. It wasn't a threat, but a kind of determination.
But the agitated Han Yunxi ignored the determination in his eyes and shot to her feet. "Don't even think about it! I've already saved your life. What other chips do you have to talk terms with me? "
No matter what, Han Yunxi refused to believe that Lady Tianxin would cheat. If she really was an illegitimate daughter, then it had to be Han Congan who'd let Lady Tianxin down.
Han Yunxi was already furious at this point. Han Congan's conditions had no doubt infuriated her.
But in the face of such a furious Han Yunxi, Han Congan was very calm. "Han Yunxi, listen to me first before you answer me. It won't be too late."
As he spoke, he took out a bunch of keys from his sleeves and passed them through the metal bars to Han Yunxi.
Han Yunxi was slightly shocked. She recognized this key. It was the storehouse key. It was the symbol of the head of the family. In the storehouse, not only did it store the Han family's assets, it also stored two important things. One was the Han family's precious medicinal herbs, and the other was the .
Every medical family would have their own medical codex that recorded secret prescriptions and secret books. It was passed down from generation to generation and only passed down to the heir of the family head. The was the family treasure of the Han family.
Obtaining these things was equivalent to obtaining the entire Han family. Although the Han family's reputation had been ruined because of Han Congan's imprisonment, the foundation of the Han family was still there. Not to mention other things, just the medical skills recorded in the was enough to create a new generation of famous doctors.
Looking at the key in front of her, Han Yunxi didn't move. Was Han Congan planning to give the storehouse key to her?
That wasn't possible. Not to mention that she wasn't of the Han family's bloodline, even if she was, she was already a married daughter. She didn't have the right to inherit the position of the head of the Han family.
What kind of condition was Han Congan offering?
Han Yunxi took a step back and distanced herself from the key. Coldly, she asked, "What do you mean?"
"Promise me that you'll do your best to support the new head of the family and revive the Han family. Everything will be for the sake of the Han family," Han Congan said word by word. His bloodshot eyes shone with a determined light.
Revive the Han family?
Han Yunxi was very surprised. She originally thought that Han Congan would threaten her to get him out of prison. She didn't expect him to propose such a condition.
Not for himself, but for the Han family.
Han Yunxi had always been filled with disappointment and disdain for this "father". In her impression, this old thing was a selfish person. However, at this moment, she saw that he was righteous.
However, Han Yunxi didn't understand. Why did he want her to do her best to realize his righteousness and put the Han family first?
Had the Han family done anything for her? Had they given her anything? That was just a place that carried her painful memories. What right did he have to ask her to risk and sacrifice herself for the Han family?
Moreover, according to what Han Congan said, she and the Han family didn't even have any blood relations.
Seeing the determination in Han Congan's eyes, Han Yunxi's lips curled into a mocking smile. "You seem to be very confident that I will agree to your request."
"Because other than me, no one else in this world knows about your mother, including your biological father!" Han Congan's tone was firm.
"I've already said that even your life is mine. You don't have any bargaining chips to negotiate with me," Han Yunxi said coldly.
However, Han Congan laughed. "If the Han family is defeated by the Old Man, what use does the Old Man have for his life? The Old Man can only kill himself to repay his ancestors! "
Han Yunxi didn't take it to heart. In her opinion, Han Congan didn't have the courage to kill himself. However, who knew that after Han Congan said that, he actually turned around and slammed into the wall at the side!
Seeing this, Han Yunxi was immediately shocked. "No!"
If Han Congan really died, all her efforts over the past few days would be in vain. Where would she go to find the truth?
However, Han Yunxi's "no" didn't stop Han Congan. He was serious. His head was already bleeding from the impact, but he still wanted to continue slamming into the wall!
Han Yunxi was shocked. It seemed that she had misjudged this old thing. The mission of the family was deeply ingrained in his heart.
"Okay, I promise you!" Han Yunxi said loudly.
