Chapter 507: Chapter 507 The An Family’s Secret (4)

Afterward, An Bingsheng returned to his hometown in glory. Amid the envious gazes of the villagers, he joyfully led his elderly parents out of their modest thatched cottage to Changan, accompanied by the beating of drums and the gong.

And it was on the road back to Changan that something happened, which would change the An Family’s destiny.

An Bingsheng saved a woman who was at death’s door.

The woman’s surname was Li, and her name was Wanniang. She was the same age as An Bingsheng, seventeen.

When Wanniang was rescued by An Bingsheng, her body was covered in blood, and her breath was extremely faint.

Elder An and his wife were kind and charitable, and An Bingsheng was of a pure nature; he did not despise Wanniang and warmly lent her a helping hand. They took care of her on the way to Changan and even let her stay in the Scholar Mansion directly.

As in all melodramatic tales that followed, An Bingsheng and Li Wanniang developed feelings for each other over time. With the deliberate matchmaking of Elder An and his wife, the two of them paid homage to heaven and earth and were wed as husband and wife.

From then on, their story became a delightful anecdote.

The days after their marriage were not troubled by any significant disturbances. An Bingsheng was honest and won the emperor’s trust. Although he did not rise swiftly through the ranks to become a powerful minister, he nonetheless held a position on the imperial court. A year after the wedding, Li Wanniang gave birth to twin sons for the An Family.

A few years later, Li Wanniang gave birth successively to two more boys.

By the time Elder An and his wife passed away twelve years later, An Bingsheng and Li Wanniang had five children, all of them boys!

Looking at the group of rambunctious lads, An Bingsheng, who always preferred daughters, was quite troubled. But no matter how hard he tried, Li Wanniang always gave birth to boys!

An Bingsheng couldn’t help but laugh and cry, unsure whether to praise Li Wanniang’s belly for its vigor or to boast about his own superior lineage.

As their sons gradually grew up into adults, An Bingsheng and Li Wanniang also grew old together.

Until one day, Li Wanniang, frail and lying in bed, handed over a brocade box she had kept hidden under the bed to An Bingsheng.

In all their years together, from the moment they met until now, An Bingsheng had never inquired about Li Wanniang’s origin and family. When they first met, seeing Li Wanniang covered in blood, he knew she was no ordinary woman. But he couldn’t help falling in love with her, despite knowing that her background was a mystery.

It was only at the brink of death that Li Wanniang was finally able to let out a sigh of relief.

Her trembling hands passed the box to An Bingsheng, and with a heart full of guilt, she confided the thoughts she had harbored over the years.

It turned out that when Li Wanniang first encountered An Bingsheng, she was escaping from her Shimen in a most wretched state. Due to the various grievances of Shimen, Li Wanniang was harmed by villains who stealthily forced her to swallow a treasure of the sect and then stole the brocade box, fleeing from there.

And this treasure of the sect was a pill. A pill that, if consumed by a woman, could produce offspring with exceptional innate abilities.

This medicine astonished countless people in the martial world. No man did not wish for his progeny to flourish, nor did any man not aspire to be the ancestor of a prominent figure. Considering the founders who had established dynasties and crafted legends throughout history, the entire martial world began to stir with excitement.

However, Li Wanniang had, under her master’s instructions, taken the pill and then stolen the brocade box.

What nobody understood was that, indeed, consuming this pill could result in exceptionally talented offspring, but it was difficult to conceive daughters. Without a daughter, the entire family could not practice ancient martial arts. This meant that if future generations did not have any girls, the entire family would be, in essence, a family of good-for-nothings!

The root solution to all these problems lay within the bracelet in the brocade box and the birth of a daughter.
