Chapters. 102 State of the Xi Lillian Cottage

But when General Shen Guo Feng had passed through the door, he suddenly stopped and ordered some of his guards.

“You work immediately after they choose which punishment they will take for the girl. And their time to think was only a quarter of an incense stick. If more than that then immediately send him to a remote temple in that silent mountain.” Shouted the General loudly so that it could be heard by the people in the banquet hall.

"Okay, Great Lord," replied the two bodyguards commanded by the General.

"Good, do it right" said General Shen Guo Feng.

Only then did General Shen really leave from there. He headed to the hut that Xi Lilian had been living in all this time.

But when General Shen Guo Feng was there he was only greeted by silence and darkness.

And there was not a single candlelight to illuminate the remote little cottage.

There was no sign of life there. Which seems to indicate that the place has been abandoned for a few days.

But the General still decided to enter and look at the cottage which had been a permanent residence for the Official Princess.

Outside the residence he could see if the courtyard was filled with wild plants that flowered with colors that seemed refreshing to the eyes when he saw it and quite beautiful. Most likely they took the seeds from the forest.

And there is a simple gasebo that seems not long ago made because it can still smell the aroma of wood is very distinctive and also soothing.

"Even though she was abandoned and lived in a place like this, but my little princess who I threw away has now grown into a beautiful girl, good at taking care of herself and the surrounding environment. And it was exactly the same as his late Mother" muttered General Shen Guo Feng.

"And do you still want to give this apology and a second chance for your father to make amends for all the wrongs he's done to you all this time, son?" continued General Shen monologue.

"However, I will prove it to you both if I have realized all the mistakes I've done to you both, and I will keep trying to make you both give this old man the opportunity to pour out all the affection I have for you both and I will always protect you as much as I can which your father can. Even if I had to exchange it for a life even though I wouldn't mind if it was for your good especially you little Lian'er Daddy who has now become a beautiful and tough fairy," general Shen Guo Feng said in his mind.

After General Shen was satisfied to look at the entire courtyard in his official Princess' cottage.

Only then did he decide to look at the contents of his daughter's residence.

But once he managed to open the door of the residence, he was completely shocked and also feeling guilty and maybe also hurt.

With what was presented to his eyes.

Which in the residence is just a carpet that has been very shabby as a floor mat, a small table that has been worn too. And there's not even any other furniture.

There was only a shabby curtain running along the length of the building, which was likely used as a blocker for other rooms.

“What? What is all this? Why does everything look so bad here? How could my daughter live with poverty and misfortune like this, she deserved to deny my words about the monthly money I gave all this time. He really never got a dime out of it and it's proven with everything I see right now.” Muttered General Shen

“This must all have been caused by that lowly human. Really they deserve more ruthless retaliation later. And I will make sure that all happens,” said General Shen Guo Feng who was full of determination.

After that the General checked all the rooms in the cottage, in fact, there is only one room that is blocked into two parts, one used as the bedroom of his daughter Xi Lilian and both his servants and the main room only.

But sometimes the two servants still stay and

sleep in the waiter's room.

When General Shen was in the room where his daughter Xi Lilian was staying, he spent the night.

There General Shen Guo Feng could see firsthand that there was only a cot made of piles of used boards and the top was covered by a mattress that was so hard and cold, and besides there is only a closet whose door is only one side attached, while the other has long been detached and also just tendered to cover what is in it.

And a table that is also made carelessly by people who are not experts in making frames and furniture.

Even for the window only closed a thin curtain that could still be penetrated by moonlight nothing else. Which can be used to block the night wind from blowing inward.

Even just for just a heating furnace there is also not there.

How could not imagine General Shen Guo Feng what suffering and misfortune his little Princess had gone through.

Even every night he could sleep soundly in a spacious room, a soft mattress, although not as soft as the mattress Xi Lilian from modern times.

But his little princess Xi Lilian had to rest on a thin, hard mattress and still have to endure the cold air every day.

"Father is really sorry Lian'er, sorry Lian'er's father, I really don't know if you're having a life that's even worse than a pet in your own Family Residence, I thought all this time you've received everything you've given me through that woman. because every time I ask him he always says that you have got everything as it should and often they give more to you. How stupid your father was. It's appropriate that you hate your father, son."

As soon as the General opened the closet again and saw the contents inside. Sure enough it made his heart grimace in pain, when he could see clearly with the help of the moonlight that pierced through the window curtain, he said, if the clothes owned by his daughter were all even very shabby and had faded in color. Some are even moldy and stained with blood.

“Oh Lianer forgive your father for being so stupid and cruel for having made you live in agony all this time.” The General's Cry.

“Maybe you still want to give this old fool a second chance Lian’er? Would you still be able to give me one more chance to hear yourself call me father like you used to?”

“I know that you've been hurt so much that you don't want to wish on me anymore and you've finally called me a stranger lately. And your father can actually feel the pain because you call me an outsider, but I am so stupid and elevate my own ego even more,” said General Shen Guo Feng with tears in his eyes.

Even the current General Shen was also completely unable to stand firm anymore, either, so that he must kneel down while regretting all the deeds and also the harsh words that he uttered to his daughter with his beloved wife Xi Yu Nian.

In addition, he even had the intention to get rid of his daughter in his life and including his eldest son as well. He is also indifferent to his official son because he always protects and also keeps the Little Sister rhyme herself fate.

“Nian’er from nature there you must also blame me for my negligence as well as my mistakes so far, right? You deserve to blame me Nian’er, I am the most stupid and cruel Husband and Father in the world. And so stupid of me that it was easily blinded by the bullies. If there is another chance I really want to apologize to all of you dear,” said General Shen who had previously monologued alone.

After he finished spilling all his sadness and also calm himself again, now the general again stood up and began to move to continue down the cottage of his daughter's residence.

But all he found was a backyard filled with vegetables that were ready for harvest and also a small hut that was a kitchen.

When there is nothing more to see. Now General Shen turned around and walked towards the Private Pavilion of his Eldest Son.

He hoped to find the whereabouts of both the Son and the Daughter there.

But what General Shen got was not in accordance with what he had in mind.

It turns out that his two children who had been looking for earlier, were also not in the personal residence of the Eldest Son.

That made him a little disappointed. Moreover, there was only a servant and also a new bodyguard who he sent to serve his Eldest Son a few days ago.
