Beauty and Beauty: Adopted Daughter Becomes Concubine

Chapter81
Back in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the nanny was going to take away the sleeping child, but the moment he left his embrace, the little guy woke up, crying and crying, the nanny couldn't coax her, when Murong Yuchi hugged her, she immediately became calm and honest, Twisting her chubby body to find the most comfortable position in his arms, she made a simple Yiyi babbling sound as if talking to him, he teased her, and she kept smiling at him.

She clings to him and likes him to hug her the most. When she cries, only he can make her happy at the first moment. The older she grows, the more she resembles Tongtong.

Does he hate her?Murong Yuchi thought, he should hate it.

However, on the other side of hatred, he still couldn't help loving her.

The harem selected beautiful women, and he bestowed ranks on those with outstanding talents and looks. When he looked at them carefully, he found that there was always a trace of pupils in them.

Facial features, body shape, behavior...

He restrained himself from looking at her, but subtly searched for someone who was similar to her, but none of them could replace her, and Murong Yuchi couldn't arouse the slightest interest. He would either review memorials until midnight every day, or get drunk and hang out in Zhaohua Palace .

There was still her breath there. When she was canonized as a noble concubine, she had a cold war with him. He deliberately got drunk and took the opportunity to go over and linger. He knew that she was soft-hearted and tolerant of his many bad behaviors.

They used to be sweet friends, the hibiscus tent was warm, and he would always remember her shyly making love under him. At that time, their relationship was unknown, and he wanted her, so he forced her to be close to him, and wanted her to love him.

Deep love, deep hatred, the two extreme emotions are entangled with each other, tearing his wounded heart day after day.

The child Yiyi yelled back to Murong Yuchi's thoughts, her little hands clenched his clothes tightly, her short and fat calves stared vigorously, trying to stand up.

Murong Yuchi hugged her and put her on his knees to stand firm, she said cheerfully, "Yeah!" sound, and her little feet stepped forward vigorously.

He thought of Tongtong who crawled up on the bed with his short legs trying to stare at him many years ago and asked him to peel chestnuts.

"Daddy."

Murong Yuchi came back to his senses, this title came out of her mouth, it wasn't very clear but she could hear what it was called.

He was startled at first, then a little at a loss, with inexplicable joy in his heart, his tense expression couldn't keep up with the changes, and the wet nurse at the side was scared to death. The royal title should be Father, and the folks should be Daddy, and she The little princess was never taught to speak.

Murong Yuchi simply ordered her to back down, and the wet nurse hurriedly left with frightened steps after kowtowing her favor.

Murong Yuchi teased her to say it again, she narrowed her eyes and just smiled, but the eyes of such a small child were naughty and wicked, he was startled.

"A Lin." Li Xuan stood outside the hall and watched for a long time without disturbing them.

"Aunt Xuan." With his normal expression, he hugged the little person and put the little person beside him on the small couch, covered it and was patted a few times, then pinched her little cheek and said softly, "Go to sleep."

She made a fuss for a long time, and then fell asleep again after obediently laying down on her stomach.

Li Xuan looked at her for a long time and sighed softly, "What a well-behaved child, just like you when you were young, Ah Lin."

"Aunt Xuan also thinks she looks like me?"

Li Xuan shook her head slightly after hearing this, she understood the knot in Murong Yuchi's heart.

"She called me Daddy just now, she must have been taught by Aunt Xuan."

"It was taught by slaves."

"Aunt Xuan, how dare you?" Murong Yuchi asked with a chuckle.

There is no smile in the dark eyes, the child raised by her own hands is patient, intelligent, thoughtful and deep, she is no longer as easy to understand as she was when she was a child, but she still knows Murong Yuchi's personality to some extent.

For her nurturing grace, he still misses his old love.

There are some things that she is determined to bring into the coffin, so she can't talk about them. However, seeing the pupils getting thinner, Li Xuan thought of Qin Qian.

There are indeed many poor people in the palace, but Qin Qian is the most innocent person Li Xuan has ever seen in his life.

She has taken care of Tongtong for a few years, now that she is old, people who are half buried in the earth are not optimistic about life and death, she really doesn't want that child to suffer.

She always finds a way to prevent a similar cycle of tragedies from continuing.

"Slaves are lowly people. Anyone in the palace can kill them with a casual word. The greatest honor in half a life of a servant is to serve the emperor when he grows up." She looked at the sleeping child on the couch, her eyes filled with infinite Painful, "The servant has taught the little princess how to speak, and she has taught her a lot, but the first time the little princess called out was Daddy. Your Majesty, the little princess only listens to you. Don't you think it is due to the nature of blood?"

A complicated look flashed across Murong Yuchi's eyes.

blood nature?He turned his eyes to the little man beside him.

The pair of green pupils at first made him feel very uncomfortable, but she was so much like Tongtong that Murong Yuchi couldn't bear not to see her.

The first time she grinned silently at him, the first time she squeezed his fingers with her small hands, the first time she talked to him Yiyi, he thought he didn't hate her just because she resembled Tongtong, but it was not the case. This child went from resisting to accepting, and now liking.

He loves her very much, even if he doubts her blood, he still can't restrain his love for this child.

"A Lin, take a closer look at the little princess, she is very similar to Tongtong, but she also resembles you in some ways."

Murong Yuchi frowned, staring at Li Xuan with doubts in his eyes.

like him?He had carefully looked at the child's appearance countless times, and was disappointed countless times. He couldn't see anything similar to him!
Li Xuan sighed, often the authorities were confused by the onlookers, and just about to speak, Zong Ting hurried over from outside the hall.

"What's the matter?" Murong Yuchi said in a slightly displeased tone, Zong Ting didn't have time to report in, the excessive noise woke up the little things around him.

Fortunately, the little thing opened his eyes and looked at it mistyly, then closed his eyelids and fell asleep.

Zong Ting glanced at Li Xuan quickly, his expression was tense, Li Xuan's heart beat a lot faster for no reason.

It is indeed a major event that can make Zong Ting, who has always been calm, flustered.

When Lian Yingtong woke up, she was already in the speeding carriage, her limbs were limp and unable to move, her throat seemed to be blocked and unable to make a sound.

In panic, she glanced around and saw that someone was with her in the carriage.

Dressed in black, with a familiar face, the only difference is that the pair of green pupils are dark now.

Caressing her cheek with his big hand, he understood the refusal in her eyes, but the matter has come to this point and there is no turning back.

He said softly as if coaxing a child, "I'll take you away, just like what we said at the beginning, let's go far away!"

In the Sujing Buddhist Hall, Empress Dowager Xiao arrived here early as usual, with the sound of wooden fish, eating fast and reciting Buddha's name.

Returning from Lingshan to Nanming, the Xiao family was wiped out, she was put under house arrest in the deep palace, the past scenery no longer existed, and the Empress Dowager Xiao lived a peaceful life without disputes as if accepting her fate.

Xiao Tingfang came into the Buddhist hall and waited quietly for the end of the Empress Dowager Xiao's ceremony. She was reduced from a noble concubine to a beauty and her temperament has changed a lot compared to before.Serving by my aunt's side every day, it is so quiet that it seems that there is no sense of existence.

The incense is lingering, and the empress dowager Xiao's once graceful face is still not able to withstand the aging years, the drooping wrinkles at the corners of the eyes look old, and the amber cat-like pupils seem to be covered with a layer of mist.

"It's done?"

"Well, there should be movement in the palace soon." Xiao Tingfang replied in a low voice.

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded, seeing Xiao Tingfang's calm and expressionless face, she couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, "What? Still reluctant to part with the emperor? Haven't you suffered enough from Lingshan's lesson?"

"Auntie, my father and Yuanxi have passed away. Only you and me are left in the Xiao family. Ting Fang is only worried about Auntie's safety."

Empress Dowager Xiao sneered secretly in her heart, one and two are useless things, Xiao Chongyuan was smart for a while, and Murong Yuchi was trapped in Mobei, a great opportunity for rebellion, he was actually injured by the cold arrow of a sneak attacker, and missed the opportunity for nothing .

If the opponent is Murong Yuchi, one missed opportunity is enough to cost his life.

She was able to live well, on the surface it was Murong Yuchi who treated her generously and kindly, how could he be so kind, Qin Qiansheng's little bastard clearly wanted to trap her in the palace before making plans.

What he wants to do next, Empress Dowager Xiao can't figure it out, but she has been immersed in the palace for decades, she knows how to fall into the hands of human beings, and the tragic end of human beings.

It is precisely because she understands that she is unwilling to go to that step. She is the Empress Dowager of Nanming. Although the Xiao family is extinct, Murong Yuchi is a disciple of the Xiao family or an official who has been blessed by the Xiao family, but the centipede is dead but not stiff However, the intertwined relationship cannot be easily cleared away.

She needs a helper, not a soft-hearted helper like Lan Xin, who she entrusted to Ting Fang, but she couldn't give her a heavy responsibility even after observing it. Fortunately, the situation was not as bad as she expected, and God gave her another chance.

Mrs. Xiao showed a deeply moved expression on her back, "Although my aunt is old, she hasn't reached the point where she is willing to accept her fate. Even if she really wants to die, she has to watch her opponent die first. Don't worry, with my aunt here, don't be afraid." She supported Xiao Tingfang's arm and got up slowly.

"Ting Fang didn't expect that he would really dare to do that."

Empress Dowager Xiao smiled faintly, "He is also surnamed Murong, no matter how calm a person is, Murong's blood flows in his bones, and his love madness has never been inferior to that of the emperor."

"It's true to say that, but he is no match for the emperor." Xiao Tingfang sees this clearly now.

I still remember that when Murong Yuchi was seriously ill, the Northern Qi army was approaching, and the people in Nanming were panicked. He personally planned everything and deceived everyone, but it was only for Chang Ning.

"If Murong Bixiao can compare, then it's Murong Weichi's turn to sit on the dragon chair in the Golden Palace."

"Auntie, you asked Tingfang to tell Murong Bixiao the news of Chang Ning's suffering in the palace, but you didn't want him to successfully take Chang Ning away?" Xiao Tingfang gradually figured it out.

"You have finally regained some of your previous wisdom." Empress Dowager Xiao praised.

"This, the emperor can tell at a glance that someone is behind the plan, when the time comes, Auntie—"

Empress Dowager Xiao interrupted her with a wave of her hand, "Don't mess yourself up, okay, I'll talk about this later and you go down first." After dismissing Xiao Tingfang, she turned her sideways gaze to the back of the Buddhist hall and said coldly, "Come out, you won't be tired of eavesdropping If you have anything to ask Aijia directly, Aijia will tell you."

The person who walked out was Chi Xingyun, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I'm here to ask you something."

"If it's about Lan Xin, you can go back, Ai's family won't see her."

"Lan's heart disease is serious, at least you should see her."

Empress Dowager Xiao was quite impatient, "It's useless, she even dared to stab the emperor when she went crazy last time, wouldn't it be dangerous for the Ai family to see her."

"You really don't want to go?" Chi Xingyun said solemnly.

She turned her disgusted eyes towards him as always, "Bitch/slave, how dare you talk to Aijia like that!"

"I'll ask you again, are you going to see Lan Xin!?" Chi Xingyun has always been gentle and refined, speaking softly, with a humble and obedient expression.It was the first time in many years that he asked Empress Dowager Xiao harshly, she was stunned.

"You're wrong!" She gritted her teeth and reprimanded.

Chi Xingyun has always been restrained by her, and when she glanced at her fiercely, his tone softened a little, but his attitude was still firm.

"Just go and see Lan Xin for a while. For decades, you have hated her and refused to hug her. No matter how big the resentment is, you should have vented enough. As long as you are willing to see Lan Xin, I swear to keep the secret, and I will never give up in my lifetime." Tell the emperor half a word. If you don't insist on seeing Lan Xin, I'll—"

"Then I'll show you the death of the Ai family!" Empress Dowager Xiao said firmly with a cold face.

Chi Xingyun smiled bitterly, "You don't want to die, Enlin, I know you too well, if you don't turn Murong's world upside down, how can you be willing to die."

Empress Dowager Xiao snorted coldly, her cat-like eyes rolled, "Chi Xingyun, there are many ways to take revenge. It is true that it is a pleasure to live to see the enemy's pain. On the contrary, if you force the other party to death before you die, you will be trapped for the rest of your life." Even if you go to hell, Aijia will be full of joy."

Chi Xingyun nodded dumbly. He knew Enlin's personality well. After the Xiao family was exterminated, she looked down on her life and death, and her hatred became more and more serious.For decades, she has followed what she wants and wants to do, and nothing can shake her obsession.

Like a person who can't get what he wants after exhausting all means, he was extremely depressed for a moment, his temples seemed to be a little more frosty, and he slowly raised his eyes to look at Queen Mother Xiao.

"The Ai family hates being threatened by others the most. Hurry up and save yourself from being upset!" The Empress Dowager Xiao said angrily, a servant who has served her obediently for decades and obeyed her orders, and never dared to speak loudly. She hates Chi Xingyun, But he has to admit that his loyalty to him is unparalleled, and now he wants to disobey her?

"I'll go away. You don't want to see me from now on, and I won't annoy you by appearing again. Before I leave, I have something to ask you." Chi Xingyun took a few steps forward and approached Empress Dowager Xiao slightly, he He has served and obeyed her for decades without complaint or regret. As long as Enlin wants to get it, he will definitely help her achieve it, even if his hands are stained with blood against his conscience.

Because she has come this far, he is unforgivable.

"En Lin, if that wrong thing hadn't happened, Lan Xin was really the late emperor's own flesh and blood, would you love her dearly?"

"You are stupid, Lan Xin is the flesh and blood of the first emperor, don't slander Aijia!" She squinted at Chi Xingyun with cold eyes, and her hand holding the prayer beads suddenly trembled.

"Have you ever thought that the first emperor didn't love Lan Xin very much, so would he have discovered that Lan Xin was born suspiciously? You were husband and wife in the past ten years, except for Lan Xin, you had no other children. Later, Qin Qian died of dystocia a year after entering the palace. The first emperor tacitly allowed you to adopt the young emperor by his side. After more than ten years, you had two pregnancies, both of which were miscarriages. In the end, you could not have any more children. The first emperor originally appointed Murong Xiudi as the prince, but suddenly abolished the prince and changed The present emperor, and the sudden death of the late emperor, have you thought about connecting all these together?"

"What on earth do you want to say?!" Empress Dowager Xiao's phoenix eyes widened, Chi Xingyun didn't talk much, he said so much today, it's not like she didn't think about these old things together, but at this time When he mentioned it, Empress Dowager Xiao vaguely felt that the doubts she couldn't figure out these years seemed to gather together and secretly point to something.

It was an instinctive reaction to conspiracy, even if the other party had been buried for more than ten years.
