My past life exposure shocked the entire internet
#796 - The truth behind it! Yan Wang Sword [2 more]
Even though the old woman quickly returned to her normal expression, her micro-expression, which lasted only a few tenths of a second, was clearly captured by Ye Wanlan.
She had already mobilized her inner strength, ready to take Xu Peiqing away from this place at any time.
But on the surface, Ye Wanlan just pretended to be a little confused: "Old man, do you know me?"
The girl was also surprised: "Grandma?"
As if struggling with something, the old woman finally made up her mind. She patted the girl's hand and said, "Xiao Yu, go out first. Grandma wants to check on their physical condition."
"Okay." Lan Yu nodded. "Don't worry, young lady. My grandmother is a doctor. She was rehired by the hospital after she retired."
Ye Wanlan smiled slightly: "Thank you."
Lan Yu stepped out and closed the door, leaving only three people in the room.
"I don't know you." The old woman said in a deep voice, "But you look a bit like the late queen."
Ye Wanlan narrowed his eyes.
Xu Peiqing was stunned for a few seconds before he slowly said, "May I ask if the current emperor's name is Beirut Flanders?"
"That's right." The old woman nodded. "The Cangyuan Kingdom has always been ruled by the Flanders family. His Majesty Beirut has been in office for more than three hundred years."
Three hundred years is like several lifetimes for human beings.
But in the eyes of the long-lived and advanced Atlanteans, it was only a moment.
Xu Peiqing frowned.
Although Chongming Kingdom and Cangyuan Kingdom are both in Atlantis, they are clearly separated and the people of the two countries have no contact at all.
So although she knew the name of King Cangyuan, she had never seen this king, let alone his queen.
"Perhaps I am just being too paranoid." The old woman smiled and sighed, "This world is so big that there are all kinds of things. Even if there are people who look alike, it's not surprising. But I hope this young lady will be careful. After that incident, His Majesty killed many people. If he sees your appearance, I'm afraid His Majesty will be afraid."
Ye Wanlan realized that this might have a lot to do with her life experience. She remained calm and said, "Please give me some advice, Senior. I am all ears."
"I shouldn't have told you this, because everyone who knew about this, except for a few members of the royal family, is dead." The old woman coughed and smiled bitterly, "I also heard it by accident. It is said that more than 40 years ago, the high priest suddenly issued a prophecy."
Xu Peiqing also listened attentively.
"The prophecy said that his descendants would overthrow his rule and unify Atlantis." The old woman continued, "Everything the high priest said happened, so in order to prevent this from happening, His Majesty ordered the newborn baby to be executed."
Ye Wanlan's heart sank: "Who is this high priest?"
Ye Wanlan remained silent.
The monarchy is like this in Shenzhou, Beilu, and Atlantis.
She always respected Ning Zhaozong because to her, he was not only an emperor but also a father.
"The queen was so grief-stricken over the loss of her child that she bled profusely and fell into severe shock." The old woman was silent for a moment, then continued, "I was one of the people who treated the queen, but unfortunately, she still didn't make it."
Xu Peiqing took a deep breath: "How ridiculous!"
Because of a prophecy, he killed his own child and also killed his wife. How is this behavior different from that of an animal?
She originally thought that the Cangyuan Kingdom was more kind than the Chongming Kingdom, but she didn't expect that this group of nobles with high-purity bloodlines were all show and no substance!
"Just now I saw that this girl's eyes looked too much like the late queen's." The old woman turned her head away and wiped her tears. "That's why I lost my composure. The late queen was a very good person. With her passing, we ordinary people are suffering more and more."
"Thank you for the reminder, senior." Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, "I will not let this face appear in front of the king."
At least, not now.
"You can stay here for a few more days." The old woman hesitated, "It's just that Xiaoyu and I can barely make ends meet sometimes, I'm afraid..."
Ye Wanlan said: "Don't worry, senior. My aunt and I will leave today after we have rested."
The old woman nodded, and sighed again as she walked out.
Xu Peiqing was still angry. She tilted her head and asked, "Alan, you asked so carefully, could it be that you guessed..."
"Aunt also thought of it." Ye Wanlan's eyes were deep, "I wonder if my father was the baby back then."
Because the timing just happened to match.
But for some reason the baby was not killed, but instead appeared in Shenzhou.
"If that's the case, then it's bad." Xu Peiqing's pupils shrank. "To awaken my bloodline, I will have to meet the king. By that time..."
"Aunt, the time has not come yet." Ye Wanlan patted her shoulder and said, "We haven't eaten for a few days. Let's fill our stomachs first. Only when we are full can we have strength."
With Ye Wanlan's comfort, Xu Peiqing gradually calmed down.
Outside, the dishes have been set out.
"The food is here." Lan Yu brought a bowl of soup. "There are too few ingredients. I don't know if it suits your taste."
Ye Wanlan was very calm: "It's delicious."
Grass roots, soil, insects...what had she not eaten when things were the most difficult?
After eating, Ye Wanlan asked: "I am going down the mountain this time to awaken my bloodline. I wonder where I should go?"
"Bloodline awakening?" Lan Yu was stunned, then shook his head. "Bloodline awakening is not a simple matter. If you are not a noble, you need to pass the assessment or get an invitation letter. But we have been so poor, how can we have the strength to participate in the assessment?"
The old woman also sighed: "Xiao Yu is not strong enough and has failed the assessment for two consecutive years. If he fails this year, he will never have another chance."
Ninety percent of the ordinary people of Atlantis were never able to fully awaken their bloodline in their lifetime, which made them only slightly stronger than humans and allowed them to live a few decades longer.
This vicious cycle, generation after generation, led to an ever-widening class gap in Cangyuan Kingdom.
Ye Wanlan didn't say anything, her eyes were fixed on one place, motionless.
"Alan?" Xu Peiqing followed her gaze and found some metal object hanging in front of the door.
But this thing is not complete, it is just fragments, so broken that it is impossible to even tell what it is.
The old woman and Lan Yu also noticed her gaze and turned around.
"Oh, that's the medical fee someone gave to grandma." When Lan Yu saw the fragment, he suddenly realized, "My grandma and I don't know what it is, but it's strange that this thing can actually protect the house, so I hung it on the door."
"That's right." The old woman, who had more experience than her granddaughter, said, "I think it might be the remains of some weapon or other treasure. Otherwise, how could it have such a miraculous effect?"
Ye Wanlan said softly: "I know."
