Step on a branch

Chapter 117 Moisturizing the Heart and Silence
All kinds of emotions came rolling in, with mixed flavors.

Lin Fan gradually calmed down.

He looked at Qin Luan and said, "Can you wait for me for a while?"

Qin Luan blinked.

Lin Fan didn't explain much, but Qin Luan roughly understood what he was thinking and nodded with a smile.

The faint gentle smile calmed down Lin Fan's mood as he was trying to relax, and he asked Fang Tian to fetch water.

The well water was blowing on the face, cooling and refreshing the mind, and the exhaustion after a sleepless night was gone.

Then he sat down at the table.

The porridge was already cold, but Lin Fan didn't mind, so he ate it with side dishes.

Wait until the food on the table is in your stomach, rinse your mouth and wipe your mouth.

All actions are orderly.

With this daily life, the thoughts in my mind are almost in order.

"I want my mother to take a look at the portrait," Lin Fan and Qin Luan said. "She knows best whether it looks like it or not, and I have to tell her that I have already learned about my background from the eldest princess and Marquis Yongning. I have to ask Miss Qin Wait a little longer in the study, and after I finish talking with my mother, I will arrange a carriage to take you out of the house."

Qin Luan agreed.

After nightfall, under the cover of the dark sky, climb over the wall and go in and out.

It was already dawn at this time, and it was too eye-catching for her to walk from the wall again.

But for a living person like her, it's really inappropriate for her to walk out of the alley instead of entering through the gate.

Or a carriage is more convenient.

Lin Fan asked Qin Luan to move to the desk, took out a scroll from the half-person-high vase in the corner, and unfolded it on the desk.

Qin Luan took a closer look, it was a map.

"The imperial mausoleum is at this location," Lin Fan pointed his finger and moved it again, "this is Mount Tai, if I go back and forth between the imperial mausoleum and Tianyi Temple, how long will it take?"

Qin Luan replied: "The two are not far away. With the Duke's riding skills, half a day should be enough."

This answer made Lin Fan feel relieved, and said: "His Majesty's coffin will be suspended for 49 days, and the Ministry of Rites has decided to leave at the beginning of the month to send the coffin to the imperial mausoleum for burial.

Deng Guoshi presided over the agenda, and the guard of honor went all the way to the imperial mausoleum. I would like to ask the emperor to accompany me. "

Hearing this, Qin Luan asked: "Your Majesty, would you like to take this opportunity to go up Mount Tai quietly to see the teacher?"

"Yes," Lin Fan replied, "It's a rare opportunity."

As the commander of the Chiyiwei, he has official duties on a daily basis.

Mount Tai is not far away, but it is not close, and if you leave Beijing rashly, it will definitely arouse the emperor's suspicion.

Taking advantage of His Majesty's opportunity to enter the imperial mausoleum, taking half a day to visit Tianyi is the best time in the near future.

Qin Luan also knew this, and said: "It is indeed feasible."

Leaning slightly, Lin Fan said solemnly: "Of course, I don't know Tianyi Temple, and the Immortal Elder in the temple will not let me meet my teacher casually, so I have to ask Miss Qin for help."

If possible, he doesn't want to trouble Qin Luan all the time.

It's not about seeing outsiders or anything, Qin Luan has helped him enough.

When he likes a girl, he has not given her much help and brought joy to her, but he is the one who got Qin Luan's help back.

I am ashamed.

But this matter, only Qin Luan can do it.

Qin Luan didn't find this troublesome.

Before dawn, she had already figured it out. She chose Lin Fan and the branch she wanted. Of course, she had to attract more sunlight and rain for him. Only stable.

Complement each other.

"I'll take the Duke up the mountain." Qin Luan said.

Lin Fan thanked him.

Qin Luan deserved to be so forthright, which warmed his heart and made him feel at ease.

Heart for heart.

Instead of thinking about being ashamed, he thought, what he should think about is how to treat Qin Luan well.

The long stream of water moistens the heart silently.

If he is not bound by fate and does not put pressure on her, then, in time, he will be able to withstand Qin Luan's sincere help again and again.

And he can also make "even a little liking" more and deeper.

Love each other.

In four simple words, he has to be good enough.

Holding the portrait, Lin Fan went to the backyard to meet the old lady.

Qin Luan sat in the study and waited.

Fang Tian prepared tea again.

Smelling the aroma of tea, Qin Luan rolled his eyes.

Isn't it just like a chess player.

After knowing that his biological mother was still alive, Lin Fan thought about all the big and small things in the short time to wash up and eat.

Think quickly and thoroughly, and act accurately.

The electric switch gallops.

In the backyard, Qiaoyu supported the old lady and walked around the courtyard corridor to digest food.

As soon as Lin Fan entered, he saw the two of them.

I don't know what Qiaoyu said, which made the old lady laugh. The atmosphere was so harmonious that Lin Fan couldn't bear to break it.

Qiaoyu saw Lin Fan first, and talked to the old lady.

The old lady turned around and said to Lin Fan, "Why are you standing there?"

Lin Fan stepped forward and supported her: "I have something to tell you."

"That's right," the old lady exchanged glances with Qiaoyu, "sit down inside and talk."

The mother and son walked forward, and Qiaoyu followed behind, covering her mouth and smiling quietly.

She understood the old lady's eyes.

They didn't know the identity of the girl who moved the Duke's heart.

Could it be that the timing is right, the Duke is finally coming to talk to the old lady?

so good.

Not only the old lady is looking forward to it, but Qiaoyu is also looking forward to it.

Lin Fan helped the old lady sit down next time, and said, "It's an urgent matter."

The old lady shot him a look, how important is it, and she has to push everyone away.

Are you ashamed of being so big?
Funny enough, the old lady still obeyed Lin Fan, let all the mothers go out, and asked Qiaoyu to guard the door.

"Can we talk now?" the old lady said.

"I'll show you a portrait." Lin Fan said, taking out the drawing paper from his sleeve.

The old lady raised her eyebrows, and there is still a portrait. Is this to give her a hand?

She wants to see what the girl named Nian Zhixin looks like.

The old lady reached out to take it and opened the drawing paper.

Almost instantly, a smile froze on her face, and she looked at the woman in the painting without blinking, her eyes flushed before she knew it.

Looking at her expression, Lin Fan knew she recognized her.

Gently, Lin Fan asked, "You recognize her, right?"

"You..." The old lady choked with sobs, there were too many questions in her mind, and she couldn't ask them for a while.

Judging from the brushwork, it is exactly the same as Lin Xuan's painting, but this is obviously a new painting, the ink is dry, but the fragrance is still there, so it must be Lin Fan who did the painting.

Where did Lin Fan meet the person in the painting, and why did he draw it? How much does he know...

These questions, the old lady didn't need to ask, Lin Fan answered her bit by bit.

"The painting is about Fang Yu, the first concubine, your cousin, my biological mother." Lin Fan held the old lady's hand and spoke slowly, "I know who I am, and I also know who Qiaoyu is. The princess and Marquis Yongning gave me the answer.

Last time I mentioned to you the late Mrs. Yongning Hou Shizi, you had a close relationship with her in your boudoir.

Her daughter studied under Xiangu Muyun, and she used her master's technique to let me see some old scenes.

I saw my biological father and my biological father chatting happily in the study, and I also saw you and your biological mother sitting by the window and talking.

I drew her down. "

The old lady lowered her eyes and looked at the portrait, her vision blurred.

Holding Lin Fan's hand instead, she choked with sobs and said, "Nian Zhi, I'm sorry for keeping you in the dark for 20 years."

　On Arbor Day, Aluan's goal: attract more sunlight, get more rain, and have luxuriant branches and leaves.
