Chapter 439 Guessing

Yan Ling let her go and sat down across the tea table: "Isn't this a joke?"

"Well, I don't even have the guts to make a joke."

She also nodded, which made Yan Ling feel competitive and warned in a low voice: "Don't stir up trouble! It's only half a month, let's see who can't stand it."

After saying the harsh words, his ears turned red again.

Xu Yin wanted to laugh, but was afraid that it was too funny, so he had to hold it back.

She waved the maids to leave and made tea for him herself.

"So the Concubine Xian has such a good relationship with your family?"

As soon as this sentence started, Yan Ling spread his hands and said, "I don't know any more than you. I didn't hear about it until last night. It turns out that we are a good family friend."

Xu Yin pushed the ordered tea over and said, "If you have a good family relationship, you won't have any contact with each other for twenty years?"

"Who says otherwise!" Yan Ling didn't quite believe it. "My father said that when he was a boy, he lived in the capital and got along with Liu Xianfei as brother and sister. My mother also said that she and the Liu family's aunt were as good as the same person.

.It doesn’t sound like a lie to me. Could it be that something happened later that caused the two families to stop contacting each other?”

This is not impossible, too many things happened during that time. The Green Forest Rebellion, the return of King Zhao, Liu Da entering the palace, the marriage between Yan and Dong...

Xu Yin thought of the jade pendant from last time and whispered: "Is it an emotional entanglement?"

This is what Yan Ling was thinking. Last time, she accidentally caught a glimpse of her father's secret. When she met Concubine Xian last night, she was full of words and had nothing to say. She was just waiting to talk to her today.

He lowered his voice and said: "What happened back then, it is known that my father and Mrs. Liu's childhood sweethearts may have had a happy teenage love, and my mother and her were sisters, but it was my mother who finally married my father.

, and the Liu family's aunt entered the East Palace and died early."

After a pause, a look of struggle appeared on his face: "Could it be that my father is in love with someone else, and my mother..."

"Stop it!" Xu Yin stopped him and stared at him for a while before asking, "Did you not sleep much last night?"

Yan Ling's eyes averted, but she acquiesced.

Xu Yin sighed and asked, "Do you really not believe in the character of your father and mother?"

Yan Ling lowered his head and picked at his fingers, and said aggrievedly: "Of course I believe them, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sleep?"

He believed in his parents in his heart, but the clues could not rule out this possibility. He needed someone to confirm him so that he would not be so panicked.

Xu Yin understood and said in a soft voice: "If you think about it this way, the prince has always kept that jade pendant, which shows that the probability of him falling in love with someone else is very small, right?"

Yan Ling nodded. He knew his father. If he changed his mind first, he would not keep the jade pendant for so long and still cherish it.

"As for the princess, if she did something she shouldn't have done, she would feel guilty, right? But looking at her attitude towards the virtuous concubine, do you feel guilty?"

Yan Ling thought about it for a moment, and the look in her eyes slowly returned: "Yes! My mother was very affectionate to Concubine Xian last night. When she heard about Concubine Xian's experience, she sympathized with her situation and invited her back to live in her house.

.”

"Ah? Did Concubine Xian agree?" Xu Yin quickly asked.

Yan Ling shook his head: "No, Concubine Xian said that the place where she lives now is very safe. I thought it won't be long before the palace will issue an order to take Concubine Xian back."

Xu Yin nodded and brought back the topic: "Look, the behavior of the prince and princess is enough to show that they have done nothing wrong to the great concubine. I think she may have entered the palace first, and there is no hope for this marriage.

, the prince had no choice but to cut off his love, and later married the princess - if you still have doubts, we will go find the records and confirm the time."

"What time?"

Xu Yin did not elaborate, but called Xiao Man: "Go find Qi Canjun and ask her to look for the records of the East Palace when the late emperor was the prince."

Xiao Man agreed and went quickly.

After a while, Miss Qi came with a lot of brochures.

"Miss Third, the things you want should be here. This is the account book, this is the project, this is the personnel..."

Xu Yin thanked her and said warmly: "It's Chinese New Year, please make this trip."

Miss Qi said with a smile: "I am alone anyway, and I have nothing to do!"

After she left, Xu Yin started searching carefully. Soon, she pushed one of them over.

"Look, Dong Palace accepted the concubine in March twenty-two years ago, but the imperial edict was issued in June of the previous year. When did your parents get married?"

Yan Ling calculated it and was overjoyed: "It was September twenty-three years ago."

"So, the marriage decree comes first, and then your parents get married, right?"

Yan Ling nodded: "It's three months away. We will get married in June and my parents will get married in September."

He suddenly remembered something: "By the way, in the early years, I once heard my uncle complain after drinking, saying that my mother's marriage was too hasty, and they must have been in a hurry to get married, so that they didn't have time to prepare."

"That's it." Xu Yin slowly sorted it out based on the clues, "The Liu family's aunt was given a marriage, and the relationship with the prince became awkward. I think it was the old prince who made the decision to get your father married as soon as possible to avoid

Suspected of competing with the prince for his wife."

At that time, the Duke of Zhao was in an embarrassing situation and did not dare to take such a risk.

She said softly: "In this case, the princess has indeed been wronged. No wonder the uncle of the Dong family is dissatisfied."

Every link of Xu Yin's deduction was fulfilled. Yan Ling was convinced by her and said with a sigh in her voice: "So, they were separated by the royal family, and the Liu family's aunt entered the East Palace, so my father had to give up. Because he was worried about the royal family.

, I also have less contact with the Liu family."

Therefore, Princess Zhao does not shy away from getting close to Concubine Liu Xian. She feels no shame and is no longer afraid of the royal family's displeasure.

Xu Yin closed the book and asked with a smile: "Are you in a good mood now? Can you sleep now?"

Yan Ling smiled sheepishly: "Yes."

Putting aside his doubts, he relaxed and asked: "Is there any place you want to go today? I can go shopping with you while there is still time?"

Xu Yin shook his head: "It's hard to rest, but I don't want to go anywhere."

"Okay," Yan Ling moved to her side, "Then I'll sit with you. The sun is nice today, let's bask in it together."

Xu Yin smiled: "Okay!"

The two of them were basking in the sun, talking to each other, and before they knew it, the world became quiet.

Xu Yin thought of the unsolved mysteries of her previous life and reminded her: "By the way, you should be careful about that virtuous concubine. She is unclear about the false emperor, so she may not be a good person."

After hearing no answer for a long time, she lowered her head and saw that Yan Ling was asleep.

Xu Yin couldn't help but smile, pulled his neck that was twisted aside, and leaned on his lap.

Yan Ling was sleeping peacefully, without his usual laughter, and his facial features showed a coldness, looking more and more like the silver-armored Young Master Yan from his previous life.

She whispered: "I hope you will have a smooth and healthy future and don't have to go through those pains again..."
