Don't Show the Son Chapter 198

   Chapter 198 The past of the imperial concubine

   The imperial concubine, who had lost her appetite for several days, finished drinking the lotus seed soup and ate two boxes of cakes brought by Lin Xiu. The imperial physicians looked at each other in dismay.

   The condition of the concubine, the concubine, is really good and bad, which makes it difficult to understand.

  Anorexia does not seem to be the case either.

   And just now, the imperial concubine was still unhappy. When someone appeared, she immediately became more energetic.

  Things are already obvious.

   The reason why the concubine's condition improved was the Jiangnan pastry brought by Lin Xiu.

   As we all know, the concubines in the harem are all from the powerful families of Kyoto, but the concubine, the concubine, is from the south of the Yangtze River and has not returned to her hometown for more than ten years.

   She suffers from homesickness.

   These foods from the concubine's hometown just gave her spiritual comfort and eased her illness.

   They had to admit that Lin Xiu still had a way to treat the noble concubine.

  Only both of them looked at the imperial concubine, and there was an unbelievable look in their beautiful eyes.

   She is also a woman, she faintly feels that the concubine is not thinking of towns, but people.

   She is not suffering from anorexia, nor homesickness, but lovesickness. .

   Lovesickness, when the lovesick person appears, it will naturally heal without medicine.

   The noble concubine is suffering from lovesickness, and the person who loves love is not Your Majesty.

   This is incredible.

   Neither the imperial concubine nor the elder brother Lin seemed to be aware of this matter.

As soon as this thought appeared in her mind, she completely buried it.

  Whether her diagnosis is true or not, this matter must not be told to anyone.

   The concubine ate the entire two boxes of cakes by herself, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and exclaimed, "The taste of this sweet-scented osmanthus cake is exactly the same as that made by the shop in front of Bengong's house when I was a child..."

   This is of course, because these sweet-scented osmanthus cakes were bought by Lin Xiu from the street in front of Murong Mansion.

  Lin Xiu said: "When Caiyi and I came back, I bought a lot of gifts for the empress, and I will bring them when I come to Changchun Palace with her tomorrow."

   Concubine Empress said: "Don't come tomorrow, I will go out to find you."

  Lin Xiu thought about it and thought this was fine. Anyway, it was convenient for the concubine to leave the palace. The environment in the palace was too depressing, and Caiyi didn't like to come here.

   Concubine Guifei had a look of hope on her face and asked Lin Xiu, "Where did you and Caiyi go to Jiangnan this time? Have you been to Fucheng?"

  Lin Xiu said with a smile: "We have been to every place in Jiangnan. These pastries were bought in Fucheng. We also bought a house in Fucheng and plan to go to Jiangnan to live for a while every year."

There was a hint of envy in the imperial concubine's eyes, and then she asked Lin Xiu with great interest what she did with Caiyi when she went to Jiangnan this time. Lin Xiu picked a few interesting things and told her about the other things. Those are indescribable...

In the end, there was really nothing to say, and the imperial concubine was still interested, Lin Xiu thought about it and said, "When we were in Fucheng, there were a few righteous men of the Heavenly Dao League who arrested the father and son of the Zhang family in Jiangnan, and Yin in Jiangnan. , throwing them on the street early in the morning, these few people bullied the people on weekdays, and finally died at the hands of the people, it can be regarded as retribution..."

   The concubine's beautiful eyes lit up and asked, "Really?"

  Lin Xiu nodded and said, "Of course, this is what I saw with my own eyes."

   The noble concubine clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "That's great, the people of the Zhang family deserve to die!"

  Lin Xiu was a little surprised. It was the first time he saw a noble concubine showing such hatred towards someone. Could it be that there is a festival between the Murong family and Jiangnan Zhang family?

   Soon after, the noble concubine covered her mouth and said, "This palace is a little sleepy. I'll go to rest first, and I'll go out to see you tomorrow."

   This also made the maids of Changchun Palace happy. In the past month, the imperial concubine not only lost her appetite, but also did not sleep very well. She often had trouble sleeping through the night.

   The imperial concubine returned to her room to rest, and Lin Xiu also retire.

When    walked out of the harem, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Brother Lin, stop."

  Lin Xiu turned around and smiled at Shuangshuang: "This time I came back from Jiangnan and brought you a gift, but I can't get it today, I'll bring it to you next time."

  Shuangshuang smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin."

  Lin Xiu waved his hand and said, "You saved me so many times, you don't need to say thank you to me."

   After a while, Shuangshuang walked side by side with him on the palace road, suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, Brother Lin, I stopped you just now because I wanted to tell you that in front of the concubine, it is best not to mention the Zhang family."

  Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?"

Shuangshuang explained: "The noble concubine's hometown is in the south of the Yangtze River. In these years, she has lived in the palace for a long time, and she has become ill. In the past half a year, the situation has improved. Brother Lin may not know that the reason why the noble concubine entered the palace is related to Zhang's family. It has a lot to do with it.”

  Lin Xiu was even more puzzled, and asked, "What does it have to do with the Zhang family when Niangniang enters the palace?"

Shuangshuang said: "I also heard from the imperial physicians that at that time, the Zhang family in Kyoto wanted to marry the Murong family in Jiangnan, but the Murong family had already agreed, but the Empress Dowager issued a decree, canonizing her as a noble concubine, and they all said that the empress was I don't want to marry the Zhang family before entering the palace, so we don't mention the Zhang family on weekdays, so as not to make the empress unhappy..."

  Lin Xiu didn't even know that the imperial concubine had such a past.

   No wonder she has never returned to Murong's house for so many years. She must have resentment towards the family in her heart.

   She is so arrogant, how could she be willing to accept the family's political marriage?

  The Murong family's decision will make her completely disappointed with the family.

   However, the Murong family at that time probably had no other choice.

   It was like Emperor Xia gave him and Zhao Lingjun a marriage, and the Lin family and Zhao family could not resist the decree.

  The Zhang family wanted to marry the Murong family, but the Murong family could not resist.

  Even the emperor can't resist the Zhang family, and he needs to marry the daughter of the Zhang family to be the queen, not to mention a small family in Jiangnan.

   In order not to marry the Zhang family, she chose to be a noble concubine. No matter how arrogant the Zhang family was, they would not oppose the royal family on such matters.

   After learning about this, Lin Xiu had a feeling of pity for the noble concubine.

   They are all people who can't decide their own marriage.

  The difference is that Lingjun is a good person, she doesn't mind Lin Xiu being with the person he likes, and even helps him take a concubine.

   But Xia Huang is the emperor, the emperor's concubine, and can only be a concubine forever.

  Lin Xiu suddenly realized one thing, the relationship between the concubine and the majesty, wouldn't it be the same as he and Zhao Lingjun?

After    made this assumption, all the things he didn't understand before were explained.

   No wonder the noble concubine was not angry when she saw your majesty picking up the pretty widow outside, but she took the initiative to help him and let the pretty widow enter the palace.

   When the imperial concubine went out of the palace, or even spent the night outside the palace, His Majesty didn't care at all.

   Among the four concubines, she was the only one who had no children.

   It is said that the noble concubine is a favorite concubine, and Emperor Xia is indeed very kind to her, but on weekdays, Lin Xiu has never seen him appear in Changchun Palace. What kind of favorite concubine is this?

   At this moment, all the doubts in his heart were resolved.

   Damn Zhang family, they ruined the happiness of the imperial concubine's whole life.

   They let a girl whose heart goes to the south of the Yangtze River live in a secluded palace in Kyoto for 16 years.

  This account, he will get it back on behalf of the imperial concubine.

   After returning to Beijing and seeing her parents, the first thing Lin Xiu saw was the imperial concubine.

   Then, he brought gifts and came to the Xue Mansion.

   It's not that the noble concubine is more important than Ning'er, but when he comes to Xue's residence, he must stay with her for a while, even at night, but in the harem, he can't stay too long, and he must leave before dark.

  Xue House.

In the innermost yard, Lin Xiu had just put down the gift when a beautiful figure flew towards him and threw himself in his arms. After a month of not seeing him, Xue Ninger wanted to kiss her beloved one in a passionate kiss, but her lips were already close together. , There was a sudden explosion in the yard.

"shut up!"

   Xue Lao Guogong snorted and separated the two at a critical moment.

  Xue Ning'er bit her lip and said, "Grandpa, can we stay alone for a while?"

   Lao Guogong Xue snorted coldly, "No, you're not one of his people yet, give this old man some restraint."

Xue Ning'er could only sit at the table in an orderly manner. Lin Xiu opened a pastry box, pinched a piece of pastry, and put it into her mouth. express dissatisfaction.

  Lin Xiu didn't have an inch. At this time, Xue Ning'er smiled and said to him: "In the future, I can also protect you..."

   She stretched out her hand, and Lin Xiu's body suddenly lifted off the ground and floated in the air.

  Lin Xiu was surprised: "You're on the ground!"

He was not surprised that Lingyin and Minghe stepped into the ground, because they had already advanced to the upper realm of the Xuanjie. With enough accumulation, Qin Wan stepped into the ground, and he was not surprised, because she could treat Yuanjing as a meal. Eat, but Ning'er has only been promoted to the upper level of the Xuanjie for half a year.

   Lao Guogong Xue snorted coldly and said, "Boy, the old man said that if you don't work hard, you are not worthy of the old man's granddaughter."

  Lin Xiu looked at Lao Guogong Xue and Xue Ning'er again, and seemed to understand something.

   Old Duke Xue is a Heavenly Rank, and Ning'er is a Mysterious Rank. If a Heavenly Rank expert is willing to stagnate his own cultivation, he can forcibly elevate a Mysterious Rank to Earth Rank.

   But almost no one does.

   Because it's not worth it.

Which Heavenly Rank powerhouse is willing to give up her practice just to create a rank, the old man Xue really loves her very much. In terms of talent, Lingyin and Minghe are not inferior to Ninger, they lose to those who do not have a Heavenly rank. grandfather.

   When Lin Xiu left Xue's house, it was already late.

   When he came to the new house, the door was closed from the inside, indicating that Qin Wan was at home.

  Lin Xiu didn't knock on the door, and the routine passed over the wall.

Qin Wan's room was lit and the door was open. Lin Xiu walked to the door, and Qin Wan, who was reading a book, turned her head and glanced at Lin Xiu, her eyes gradually turned resentful, and asked, "Do you know what I was in those days? How did it go?"
