Rebirth: Splendid Wedding

Chapter 468 The End (16)

"Don't hug me so tightly." Concubine Yan was a little out of breath being hugged by him, she struggled slightly and said, "I know you won't let me down, but there is something I want to tell you."

"what's up?"

Tuoba Lin quickly calmed down and let her go. Remembering that he hadn't changed his clothes when he came back, he took off the cloak. Concubine Yan took it, hung up the clothes, and said, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? Go wash your hands, we'll talk later while eating."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Yan ordered Qing Ping to remove the cold dishes on the table and put hot dishes back on, and then went to the clean room to bring a basin of water for Tuoba Lin to wash up.

After Tuoba Lin finished washing up and the hot dishes were on the table, Yan Feiran sent Qing Ping and the others away, and served Tuoba Lin a bowl of soup with her own hands, "Although the meals in the palace are rich, the taste is not as good as our own! Come, this is Xiangru stewed soft-shelled turtle soup, which is beneficial to the mind and brain, and you are busy with work every day, and you have to worry about your brain and mind, this is specially stewed for you to drink."

Concubine Yan didn't know when Tuoba Lin would return home, but every three or two days she would have someone cook a nutritious soup, in case he would have soup to nourish his body when he came back, unexpectedly it happened today.

The meals on the table are very rich, each plate is not much, but very delicate, this is Yan Feiran's order, not too much, but fine, so that there is no need to waste food.

Seeing that Tuoba Lin finished the soup, he started to serve him a bowl of rice, then picked up a piece of shrimp with his chopsticks, put it in his bowl and said, "This is steamed shrimp with garlic vermicelli, a dish I developed recently, you Eat it, does it taste good?"

Tuoba Lin picked it up and put it in his mouth to chew a few times, then nodded and said: "It tastes good."

After finishing speaking, he took two mouthfuls of rice and took another piece of shrimp. Seeing her staring at him with blinking eyes, hesitant to speak, he said, "This is what you want to tell me?"

"Of course not." Concubine Yan shook her head, and stretched out her hand to fill another bowl of soup for him, "Master came to me last night and asked me to persuade you to seize the throne, saying that the throne originally belonged to you."

Yan Feiran felt that this kind of matter should be discussed with Tuoba Lin, so she did not beat around the bush, but confessed directly.

"Ignore it."

"But she knows my real identity, and said that if I don't obey her, she will beat me back to my original shape." Concubine Yan pursed her lips, and said again: "Tuoba Lin, tell me, your concubine mother If you are not dead, my master is your concubine mother?"

Tuoba Lin was picking up the rice. Hearing this, he almost choked on his trachea with a mouthful of rice. He quickly inhaled twice, and the rice grains came down from the trachea. Seeing this, Concubine Yan hurriedly brought the soup for him to drink. Pat him on the back.

"You know." Tuoba Lin put down the bowl, frowned, and said seriously: "I didn't mean to hide it from you. Not many people knew that the concubine mother was not dead. At first I didn't know what to say, but after seeing her I didn't force you to do dangerous things for her, and I didn't hurt you, besides, I have some disagreements with her, and we may not be able to get together in the future, and I don't know how to talk about it, so I want to wait until the matter is settled."

"Some opinions mean that she wants you to seize the heir?" Concubine Yan asked curiously.

"Ah."

Tuoba Lin responded, seeming a little irritable, picked up the bowl and took a big sip of the soup, as if igniting the fire, then put down the bowl, "But don't worry, I don't love this country, nor do I love power, she What she means doesn't mean what I mean, don't believe what she says in the future, you just believe me."

Concubine Yan suddenly remembered that when she went to the imperial study that night, she saw a black shadow jumping out of the window. Now that she thought about it, the figure of that black shadow was very similar to that of her master, so she asked: "Did she come to the palace that night when I went to look for you?" Seek you?"

Tuoba Lin knew that she was smart, and when he confirmed that her master was his concubine mother, he had already guessed, "Well, she came to me to seize the throne, and she has now come to avenge her relatives and restore the country. You have become obsessed, you don’t need to execute some orders, as long as you take medicine on time and practice the inner strength method I taught you, Soul Devourer and Ice Soul will quickly harmonize with you.”

Yan Feiran said: "I practice every day. The inner strength method you taught is really effective. Recently, my spiritual consciousness has stabilized a lot, and when the moon is full, my body no longer feels cold, and my whole body feels relaxed."

I remember that after waking up in Xilin, I often experienced dizziness. I thought it was due to insufficient energy and blood, but I took a lot of blood-enriching herbs, but it didn’t work. Less than before, but since she has practiced the inner strength method he taught, now she is not only not afraid of the cold, even in the cold weather like now, her resistance to the cold is better than ordinary people, and the most important thing is that she has never suffered from dizziness again.

Yan Feiran remembered something, her eyes darkened slightly, "Why didn't the master teach me this set of inner skills at that time? Could it be that she had expected today so that she could use it to manipulate me?"

That's right, the master said that he knew her true identity from the beginning, so he naturally had reservations about her. Although she is not Xuanyuanzhen, she has her memory. Perhaps in Xuanyuanzhen's pure eyes, the master is a strict and mysterious person, But she felt that Master was selfish and scheming.

She taught Xuanyuanzhen martial arts to use her to achieve her own goals. Even if Xuanyuanzhen herself didn't want to get married in the end, she still had a way to let Xuanyuanzhen go. Otherwise, why would Xuanyuanzhen be reborn even after she died.

Although the wrong soul was recruited in the end, knowing that she was not Xuanyuanzhen herself, she not only did not give up, but also pretended not to know, and continued to teach martial arts, which shows how important revenge is to her.

Tuoba Lin shook his head, lightly held her hand and said, "She doesn't know that she has this inner strength method. If she wanted to manipulate you, she would not have given me the blue pill before, knowing your relationship with me."

Yan Feiran seemed to hear something, her eyes suddenly lit up, she looked at Tuoba Lin and said: "Hearing what you said, it seems to imply that she didn't know my real identity from the beginning, right?"

She is really smart, she knows everything, Tuoba Lin smiled, "So don't care what she says or threaten you, you just have to trust me."

It turned out that she had wronged her master, and the master was also eager for revenge. If she stood in the position of the master, she might not be better than the master. Thinking of this, Concubine Yan felt relieved, and said with a smile: "No matter what her selfishness is, , but there is one thing I want to thank her for, that is, she sent me back to the world and let me meet you again."

Looking at her sincere smile, Tuoba Lin felt a little complicated in his heart. In fact, he still had some things to hide from her. He was afraid that she would no longer believe in him if he said it out, and even more afraid that she would hate him because of it. To accept the blow, I only hope that the matter can be hidden, preferably for a lifetime.

But he knew it was impossible, maybe one day if he didn't tell her, she would be able to find out by herself, so he was conflicted.

I don't know who said such a sentence, no matter how strong a person is, once he meets someone he cares about, the so-called strong will become no longer confident.

He was afraid, and couldn't afford to gamble.

After lunch, the two moved to the living room, where Green Apple had prepared fresh fruits and refreshments, Concubine Yan saw that Tuoba Lin seemed to be tired, so she said, "Would you like to go back to bed and lie down for a while?" ?”

"I'm not going back to bed just to lie down for a while." Tuoba Lin's dark eyes were ambiguous, staring straight at her.

A blush stained Yan Feiran's face, she swung her small fist, lightly punched Tuoba Lin's chest, and said coquettishly, "I hate it, I'm serious."

Tuoba Lin caught her small fist, with a relaxed smile on his lips, "Since when have I been rude to you?"

"It's daytime."

"What's the matter during the day, who stipulates that you can't sleep with your wife during the day." As he said, Tuoba Lin suddenly put his arms around her waist with the other hand, pulled her into his arms, lifted her chin with the other hand, and lowered his head to her lips kissed.

The man's lips were soft and slightly cool, touching her lips was like an electric shock. At first, her body was a little tense, but following the familiar taste between his lips and teeth, she felt ashamed to relax, and she couldn't help wrapping her hands together. his neck.

At first Tuoba Lin just wanted to kiss her, after all the two hadn't seen each other for a few days, the so-called farewell is better than a newlywed, but when his lips touched hers, he was unwilling to just taste it.

And Yan Feiran has already tasted love affairs, Tuoba Lin has always been highly skilled in this area, and a woman who has tasted this kind of pleasure, how can she resist the man she likes to tease her?
"Tuoba Lin..." Yan Feiran's skirt was untied, the man's lips came to her collarbone, the breath of her breath was scorching hot, and her panting gradually became disordered, but reason told her to push him away. he.

"No, it's not convenient for me today." Her Guishui came. In the past, before the monthly letter, she would have a dull pain in her abdomen, but this time there was no warning, and it came just as soon as it was said.

I don't know if it has something to do with the internal strength she practiced. In the past, the abdominal pain was caused by the coldness in the body, which caused the palace cold. Now the coldness in the body is gradually dissipating, so the menstrual pain is gone. Next time I see Mo Wen, I must ask him to give it to me. take the pulse.

Tuoba Lin let go of her, forcibly suppressing that flood of desire.

Although he is busy in the palace, he still can't help thinking about her. Next, he will be even more busy. The imperial concubine's case is just the beginning. The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and those restless courtiers are ready to move.

This morning, many people went up to depose the crown prince and set up another crown prince. Although Tuoba Lin was imprisoned in the mansion, his power is still there. If his position as crown prince is really abolished, it may cause him to resist.

He was not afraid of Tuoba Rin's rebellion, but it was the end of the new year, and once the situation in the court changed, a storm would blow up in the whole of North Vietnam.

Zhou Tao's eldest son, Zhou Jinghao, was taken away on his way to the army. He was going to the south. He thought he was going to find Dong Zhao, but he never got in touch with them. He might have been misled. He might not be heading to Yongzhou in the south.

Tuoba Lin and Zhou Jingtao must be connected. Now that the imperial concubine has been convicted and imprisoned, his power in the harem has been disintegrated, so he must do something, so he is waiting, waiting for Tuoba Lin's next move.

Concubine Yan straightened her skirt, her lips were red and slightly swollen after being kissed by him, Tuoba Lin calmed down, touched her face lightly, and said, "Since it's inconvenient, let's sit down and chat."

Yan Feiran sat down, poured two cups of tea, and gave a cup of Tuoba Lin.

"What kind of tea is this?" Tuoba Lin picked up the teacup and took a sip. It was sweet and sour, with a unique taste. After drinking it, there was still a faint fragrance between his teeth.

"Scented tea." Yan Feiran explained: "It is made from hawthorn, osmanthus and barley tea. Barley tea has the functions of removing oil, relieving greasy, invigorating the spleen, and helping digestion. It also has a strong aroma of wheat. Sweet-scented osmanthus, with the fragrance of wheat, isn’t it special?” In recent days, her digestion has been poor, and she feels much better after drinking it for two days.

Tuoba Lin nodded, "Well, it's delicious. I ate too much greasy food in the palace, so this tea is just right, but it's a pity that I can't drink it there."

"It's okay, I made tea bags, and you can go back to the palace to get some."

"Okay." Tuoba Lin took another two sips.

At this moment, Yan Qiu walked in with a serious expression, "My lord, the emperor has summoned you to enter the palace immediately."

Hearing this, Concubine Yan put down the teacup and looked at Tuoba Lin.

He came back for a meal just now, why did he have to leave again, he didn't even have time to sit down and chat with him, but the emperor called him back to the palace so urgently, there must be something urgent.

Tuoba Lin looked normal and couldn't see anything, he just said to Yan Qiu: "Go and prepare the horse, I'll come right away."

Yan Qiu responded and left, and Tuoba Lin said: "I'm going to change clothes."

"Did something happen in the palace?" Concubine Yan followed his steps to the inner room, and while helping him change clothes, she asked him: "Will it be the emperor or the queen mother? Or something else?"

The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and he knows that his eldest son was not an accident, but was killed by the imperial concubine, and even the concubine who had served him for more than 20 years wanted to murder him for the sake of the throne. This blow is not something ordinary people can bear. Besides, in the harem, Jealousy over competition, struggle for power, love between husband and wife, and love between father and son are nothing.

Therefore, she does not sympathize with the emperor, this is his due retribution!
As for the Empress Dowager Zhou, since the imperial concubine's accident, she has not heard from her. She is on the same side as the imperial concubine. Now that the imperial concubine is imprisoned in the clan mansion, it should not be so silent.

Except for the imperial concubine's matter, Bingtao didn't inquire about other news in the palace. She forgot to ask when Tuoba Lin came back just now, and now she thinks about it and has no time.

"It's hard to say." Tuoba Lin changed his clothes, hugged her and said, "I'm the supervisor, and I have to deal with whatever happens in the palace. Don't worry, I'll be back when I've dealt with it."

As he spoke, he took two steps and stopped again, "I see shadows under your eyes, you must have had a good rest last night, don't do other things in the afternoon, go to sleep. Also, it's a bit chaotic outside now, you go out Be careful and bring more guards."

"Okay, I know."

Now the situation is turbulent, and Tuoba Lin is in an important position. Her every move is monitored outside the gate of the house. Even though she knows martial arts, she is hard to beat with both fists.

Seeing her so calm, Tuoba Lin felt relieved, "It's windy outside, so don't send me off." After saying this, he strode away.

Concubine Yan went back to bed, she thought she would fall asleep soon, but she couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, looking at the bright red curtain, she let out a long sigh.

She couldn't sleep well, but how did Tuoba Lin sleep well? There were shadows in her eyes, and there were shadows in his eyes as well. These days, he must not have had a good rest.

In fact, think about it, since she married him, she has relied too much on him, and now he arranges everything. It was originally her job, but he took over the management. She is like an idler, except for taking care of the mansion Except for the big and small affairs, the outside affairs have never been involved.

It's really not easy for Jian Guo to take care of all kinds of affairs, but he is busy taking care of the government and clearing the grievances of the Yan family at the same time.

She can't go on like this, otherwise Tuoba Lin will be exhausted before the Yan family's grievances are cleared up, she can't help with the court affairs, and she should be able to share some other matters.

Concubine Yan thought about it, and slowly fell asleep. After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, she was awakened by a burst of voices.

"The princess hasn't woken up yet, she hasn't slept well all the time, so don't bother her."

"But this matter is very serious. If it is not dealt with in time, it will have a great impact. No, I must tell her."

Concubine Yan sat up and was about to get out of bed to have a look when the curtain was raised.

"Princess, you are awake."

It turned out to be Qianwei.

Concubine Yan asked sleepily: "What happened?"

"Yes." Qianwei replied: "I don't know why, some rumors that are not good for you and the prince are crazy, saying that you are impersonating Princess Xilin, but the real identity is the criminal Yan Feiran. He came back to avenge the Yan family; and the prince has long colluded with the Yan family, the purpose is to seize the heir or something, anyway, it is rumored."

Hearing this, Yan Feiran's drowsiness disappeared immediately, and her expression became serious: "There is such a thing?"

"Princess, do you remember the collapse of the ancestral hall the day before yesterday?" Qianwei raised her voice a little, "Why did the good ancestral hall collapse, and how could Nanny Liu come to the house to look for you? I was wondering if there would be someone Deliberately leading you there, the purpose is to trigger today's rumors."

Concubine Yan thought for a while, then nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it's possible."

Who is spreading these rumors?How did they learn her true identity?Is it speculation or fact?

Qianwei said angrily: "It is said that there are several witnesses who saw you go to the ancestral hall. They described the incident vividly and embellished it, as if it was real. Fortunately, the princess was more careful at the time and did not go to find out in person. Otherwise, there is no way to argue!"

She has served the Empress Dowager in Xilin Harem for a few years, is she not sure if the princess is Xilin Princess Leping?She has seen the portrait of Concubine Yan, she doesn't look like the concubine at all, and she doesn't wear a human skin mask, it can only be said that these people really can create something out of nothing.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Except for a few people who knew the inside story, she asked herself that she didn't leave any evidence. Anyway, her body is Xuanyuan Zhen himself. As long as she denies it, no one can do anything to her.

"What are the rumors about the prince, please tell me in detail." Now she is concerned about Tuoba Lin. He is in the position of supervisor of the country, and his every move may affect the stability of the current court.

"They said that the prince colluded with the Yan family and started recruiting soldiers a long time ago. They planned to take advantage of the emperor's illness to rebel and bring down Zhou Tao. Nu Yunhua has fallen into the hands of the prince, and she has the Vermillion Bird Talisman in her hand, but the prince has not given the Vermillion Bird Talisman to the emperor for a long time, the purpose is already obvious."

Qianwei elaborated on the rumors she heard outside, including doubts about the prince's life experience. There were rumors that the prince's mother and concubine were the princess of the Cang Kingdom. He wanted to wait for an opportunity to take revenge, and the reason why the emperor loved the prince so much was because the princess of Cangguo misled the emperor into thinking that he was his own flesh and blood, and that the prince was actually an unknown bastard, etc., all of which were not good for the prince.

After hearing this, Concubine Yan raised her eyebrows, and said with a sneer, "They really know how to make up, so who would believe it? The ambition of those who spread these rumors is obvious."

It's not hard to imagine what's behind these rumors. Now Tuoba Lin's identity is sensitive. Once they are suspected by the emperor, everything they have done before will be in vain. I hope the emperor will trust Tuoba Lin this time as before.

But there are some things, if you don't believe it the first time, you won't believe it the second time, and it's hard to guarantee the third time, not to mention the emperor's suspicious character, coupled with his terminal illness, his thinking is not firm, and he is easy to be provoked.

Now, is it because of these things that Tuoba Lin was urgently called back to the palace?

Concubine Yan is not worried about the rumors about herself. With Jin Wang Shifei and Mrs. Zhao testifying for her, those rumors will be broken without attacking. Of course, if a very powerful spiritual master comes, it will be a different matter, but The problem is, it's hard to find a good spiritual master...

Wait, Yan Feiran suddenly thought about the night when Tuoba Lin returned to the mansion, a masked man broke into the dormitory to assassinate him. He was Ge Ping, the counselor Tuoba Lin invited back from outside the customs. From the soul.

If her guess is correct, it is not surprising that such rumors will spread today. It seems that her identity has been found out. So, Tuoba Lin also knows?
And she can be sure that Tuoba Lin is the mastermind behind these rumors, even if he is not involved.

Just as Tuoba Lin expected, he finally stopped forbearing.

What should she do so as not to hold back Tuoba Lin, but also to help him?
Qian Wei didn't know what Concubine Yan was thinking, seeing her expression getting serious, she asked, "Princess, how should we deal with these rumors?"

Concubine Yan lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then said: "Go and prepare pen, ink and paper."

After finishing speaking, she got out of bed and got dressed, then went to the desk to write a letter, and when the ink was dry, she sealed it and handed it to Qianwei, saying: "Send it to the Crown Princess of Jin, remember to give it to her personally .”

Qianwei took the letter, thought for a while, and said, "Then what about the prince, don't you want to clarify?"

"It's hard to talk about him right now, and we don't know about his situation in the palace. I'm afraid he will disturb his plan if he acts rashly." Concubine Yan narrowed her eyes and thought for a while, then said: "You asked Bingtao to come to me , I have something to explain."

After Qianwei went out, Bingtao came in after a while, Concubine Yan asked her to go to the palace to inquire about the situation. Is it because of rumors that the emperor called Tuoba Lin back to the palace? The rumors outside informed him, so that he could prepare and think of a countermeasure.

Although he is in a high position now, if the people below want to stop him, the news from outside the palace may not be received in time, and he is afraid that he will be caught off guard by Zhao Ang or the prince's henchmen.
