Chapter 980: Chapter 780: She’s Not the Nan Feng from Before

When Chen Yushi arrived, he had already prepared an abundance of evidence. However, he was unaware of Nan Feng’s past as an idiot; if what Tuoba Lie said was true, then it meant that there was indeed something suspicious about this matter.

"Chen Yushi, as an official tasked with speaking, you must come well-prepared, understanding the causes and effects of a matter. This is something you yourself have previously stated."

"..." Chen Yushi thought for a moment, then added, "Since this is the case, I will immediately have someone send a message back to have the matter investigated further."

...

The Emperor held Chen Yushi’s report, which mentioned that Nan Feng used to be an idiot and had been swapped out before.

The story given by Tuoba Lie was as follows: Nan Feng had indeed been his person in the past, but later did some deceitful things and fled to Dajin, pretending to be a Dajinite, and even married a wild brother. In summary, Nan Feng was a fickle woman—just investigate her hometown, and you’ll know Nan Feng was previously an idiot and completely different from before.

At that moment, the Emperor suddenly thought of Mo Wenxuan.

He quickly summoned Mo Wenxuan and asked him if this was true. Mo Wenxuan, puzzled, replied, "Your Majesty, how did you come by this information? Nan Feng’s mind was indeed not very bright before, but suddenly she became sharp-witted, like a different person. She could hunt and even became more beautiful."

The Emperor’s hand trembled violently.

If this was indeed the case, then what Tuoba Lie said was also correct.

Nan Feng, just how complicated a lady are you?

"Your Majesty," Mo Wenxuan continued, "I have heard about the dispute between Nangong Ye and Dashun, which arose because of Nan Feng. Some say Nan Feng is promiscuous, falling in love with each person she meets, but please believe in Nan Feng, Your Majesty. She is not such a person; she is extremely loyal to brother Ye and is definitely not as is being rumored outside. Tuoba Lie must have felt spurned by Nan Feng, hence his vengefulness, leading him to concoct and distort facts."

The Emperor looked at Mo Wenxuan and then handed over Chen Yushi’s memorial for him to read: "Then take a look at this."

Mo Wenxuan read it and was utterly shocked.

He had always felt that after Nan Feng fell into the water jar and underwent a drastic change in temperament, and having become cultured, literate, and started reading, the villagers all claimed that the local earth deity had manifested and brought back Nan Feng’s soul. Mo Wenxuan had agreed with this explanation; what else could it be?

But when Mo Wenxuan saw the memorial, his head buzzed incessantly, and it took him a while to realize, "Your Majesty, it’s true that Nan Feng seemed to have become a different person at that time, but I believe she is not a different person. It’s impossible for there to be two identical people in the world, and as for the reason Nan Feng turned into a different person, I am the most qualified to speak, as it all started because of me."

"Because of you?" The Emperor didn’t understand.

"Your Majesty, I was previously engaged to Nan Feng, arranged when we were children."

"I am aware; you have mentioned this before."

"However, I have always despised her for being an idiot and had wanted to rid myself of her persistence. No matter how much I insulted her or berated her, she wouldn’t understand. Finally, I could not stand it any longer and conspired with some boys to make her climb a tree, then to fall into a water jar. At that time, the water jar was full to the brim, enough to drown a person. But I didn’t think it through, and when Nan Feng fell in, she struggled continuously; the jar was too slippery for her to climb out, and she almost drowned. After being resuscitated, she came to and regained her mental faculties. Your Majesty, I believe that in such a short time, Nan Feng could not possibly have become another person. Besides, although she later became prettier, her appearance did not change, and she looked exactly like her
