Chapter 113: Grim Situation
Although Lin Yuelan said lightly, the cold color in her eyes revealed the seriousness of the matter.
"What the hell is going on? Why can't he let you go? Situ Nanyun's face was even more surprised.
"Do you remember the last time I told you about Concubine Yao? In fact, Concubine Yao is my mother, which my father told me a few days ago because of the current situation. At that time, my father, that is, the former emperor was seriously ill, and he couldn't bear to see my mother become a victim of the struggle for power in the palace, and my mother loved freedom by nature and couldn't stand the constraints in the palace walls, so she entrusted my mother to his most trusted general, that is, my future father, she followed my father to the northern Xinjiang, and your aunt in order to repay my mother's kindness to save her, voluntarily stayed in Jingyue Temple to replace my mother as a monk, in order to cover up the court's ears and eyes to investigate, this is the truth that we have been tracking down the Jingyue Temple Concubine Yao. But there is no impermeable wall under the sky, my mother is far away in the north, or was discovered, the court sent someone to investigate, my mother sent away her five-year-old brother in a hurry, and she took a strong medicine called 'phantom', although she escaped the investigation of the court, but her body was greatly damaged, and because she missed her brother too much, she passed away half a year later. Lin Yuelan said quietly.
"It's shocking to have imagined that mysterious Concubine Yao is actually your mother," Situ Nanyun sighed for a while, then continued, "And your younger brother, if I guessed correctly, it should be Zhu Rongyu, right?" She had seen Zhu Rongyu and Yan Yuchi, both of whom had wheat complexion and a pair of shallow small pear vortexes, which were all characteristics of the Tianya royal bloodline, so Concubine Yao sent him away overnight.
Lin Yuelan smiled and nodded, his Yun'er was really a smart girl in ice and snow.
Situ Nanyun took Lin Yuelan's hand, her clear spring-like eyes flashed with determination, "Lin Yuelan, although your parents are gone, you still have me, no matter if there are thorns in front of you, or a smooth road, I will face it with you." ”
During the dinner, Lin Yuelan went to the palace for the banquet as usual, and left after the banquet. On the way back, he heard several young girls talking together, so he slowed down and walked closer.
"Lin Yuelan actually wants to marry the Situ Nanyun who poisoned her own sister?"
"Yes, yes, at the banquet, Lin Shizi personally admitted that he had a marriage contract with Situ Nanyun."
"I heard that the subordinates of Situ Mansion said that Situ Nanyun is very pampered, and the subordinates around her have been miserable by her, poisoning, chopping hands, and digging out the hearts of her feet, which is very terrifying."
"Does that Lin Shizi know that woman is so bad?"
"I don't think I know."
"No, for the sake of Lin Shizi's happiness, we must expose the true face of that woman, lest he be kept in the dark and victimized......"
Several people chattered and discussed, their voices were so loud as if they were afraid that others would not hear them, Lin Yuelan's face was covered with a layer of frost, it seemed that someone had started to act, wanting to ruin Yun'er's reputation, this was the first step to destroy their marriage, and a mocking sneer flashed in her eyes. He looked down, paced lazily, coughed twice, and walked over, the corners of his mouth hooked, "So concerned about my marriage?" Then do you want to know what kind of woman I Lin Yuelan likes? ”
Several women suddenly became interested, Lin Yuelan seemed to be in a good mood today, and accosted them with a pleasant face, and looked at him with eyes brushing for a while, "What kind of woman does Lin Shizi like?" ”
"I actually like something special, especially the rough and fierce ones." Lin Yuelan squinted.
Several women's faces were jubilant, and one of them preemptively said: "Lin Shizi, it turns out that you like such a woman, so look, how about me?" In fact, I am also very fierce and domineering, those subordinates were trained by me to be obedient, and if they were disobedient, they were pulled out and killed with a cane, and their methods were not inferior to Situ Nanyun at all. ”
Lin Yuelan glanced at her with pity and shook her head, "No, you're still a little bit short of heat." ”
Hearing this, several women scrambled to be the first to shorten, and they all had a good relationship with Situ Nanyun.
The corners of Lin Yuelan's mouth hooked, "That's it, actually, I only hate one kind of woman, I am upset when I look at such a woman, do you want to know?" ”
Several women anxiously asked, "What kind of woman does the world hate the most?" ”
A sneer on Lin Yuelan's face gradually enlarged, "Long-tongued woman, long-tongued woman who specializes in chewing the root of the tongue." ”
The group of girls gasped and looked at each other, while Lin Yuelan walked away.
Lin Yuelan returned to the Xiuyun Medicine Hall, saw Situ Nanyun, and summoned the Qingqing to come to the study.
"I'm sure you've seen that the ghost's actions don't seem to have subsided recently, but have intensified. In Tianhua Qiong Yifang, Yun'er almost died in their hands, it seems that the information we revealed to the five princes did not play a role, the devil in Yandu not only sat back and relaxed, but also won the trust of the emperor through the three princes, and now what is even more tricky is that I don't know what the three princes have instilled in the emperor, the emperor has doubts about me, and can't let me stay in Tianyan, so there is a banquet with the marriage of Princess Yulin, intentionally matching me and her. ”
Qingying didn't hesitate, "I guess they must have revealed something that made the emperor suspicious more than their ghostly identity." ”
Qing Feng thought for a while, and then said: "The thing that makes the royal family even more suspicious is the matter of Concubine Yao of Jingyue Temple, it is difficult for them to find the location of the real Concubine Yao." ”
Qingquan continued, "A while ago, the Compassion Master committed suicide, and they braved the world's condemnation to break open the tomb of Concubine Yao, and found that it was only a well-dressed mound inside, which caused panic among the royal family, and they went around to find out the whereabouts of the real Concubine Yao, and it was impossible to find it in such a short time. ”
Qingyue sneered, "Can't find it, they won't climb and bite people?" Maybe it was the third prince who chewed his ears in front of the emperor and relied on our son-in-law, saying that Concubine Yao was related to our son-in-law or something, and the emperor listened to the wind and rain, so he believed it, and wanted to make the son out of Tianyan, what to do as the son-in-law of Wuerdamu, how could our son suffer such a great humiliation? ”
Aoki's face also showed disdain, "This emperor is really, he is suspicious all day long, what is Concubine Yao, a deceased person, what is there to be entangled, is there anything more important than Tianyan's safety?" ”
Qingying pondered, "It stands to reason that no matter whether Concubine Yao is still alive or not, a concubine of the former emperor has no power and power, and her identity is just a monk, the royal family should not be so jealous, and it is even more suspicious to put the matter of Concubine Yao before the interests of the country." I suspect that they should be more afraid of the prince born to Concubine Yao, and even worry about any Zen posthumous photos, only in this way will the emperor's position be threatened, and he will put this matter in front of the national interests. ”
Seeing that the topic was getting deeper and deeper, Lin Yuelan didn't want them to continue to speculate, so she spoke, "Actually, you are right, the Concubine Yao you have guessed for a long time is my mother, and I just learned from my tight-lipped father. ”
He just brought up this topic just to listen to their opinions and test their analytical and judgment skills.
Lin Yuelan's words shocked the Qingqing, "No, Childe, you are still the prince?" It's incredible that he's also the younger brother of the current emperor. ”
Lin Yuelan coughed, "Only a few of us know about this matter, don't publicize it to the outside world, tell you that I want you to be prepared, now we are facing another opponent with another emperor, and the situation is even more unfavorable, everyone must be very cautious in the future." ”
Qingying pondered for a while, "Most of the demons are just chasing after the wind and shadows, their purpose is just to arouse the emperor's suspicions, I think the emperor should just be suspicious, and there is no evidence in his hands, if he can successfully dispel his suspicions, maybe things will be much easier." ”
Lin Yuelan shook her head, "This thorn has been planted, it is difficult to pull it out easily, to eliminate the emperor's suspicion, we have to think long-term, now we are passive, we can only see the move." After a pause, his face became even more grim, "Also, someone is smearing Yun'er now, and it is estimated that there will be a move, Yun'er once drugged Situ Nanzhu is not false, this is also irrefutable, but I think the reason why Yun'er's temperament changed greatly before was not the blow of her mother's death, a person's temperament has not changed so easily, I suspect that her previous behavior was intentional." ”
He looked at Qingyue and solemnly explained, "Qingyue's matter will be handed over to you, you start from that graphite and the two girls beside Yun'er to see if you can find out some clues, if this matter is clear, it will be very helpful to clear her reputation." ”
Qingyue nodded to promise.
"Qingquan, how is the situation of the Fifth Prince?" Lin Yuelan thought for a while, and then asked.
"Childe, the three princes have been gaining momentum recently, and the five princes have been suppressed by him, and they seem to have lost the emperor's trust in the matter of Jingyue Temple." Qingquan replied.
"Maybe the fifth prince is a breakthrough here, he is scheming, although the third prince has taken the lead in this matter of Concubine Yao, but he will not admit defeat easily, he will find a way to turn the situation around, I heard Zhu Rongyu say that he has been secretly investigating the ghosts, and we will continue to release the news to him."
"Qingquan, you will continue to keep an eye on the movements of the five princes and report to me at any time." Lin Yuelan then commanded.
After a while, Lin Yuelan seemed to think of something again, her dark eyes sank, and she continued, "Also, we have to plan for the worst, if things don't go as we expected, Yun'er and I are forced to separate, or I have to go to Wuerdamu, you have to ......" Lin Yuelan then gave a command to the Qingqing.
The discussion in the study did not end until the early hours of the morning, Lin Yuelan returned to the room, gently hugged Situ Nanyun and fell asleep.
