Following Ma Eunuch, Ye Dingfeng finally saw the woman he had been dreaming about. Looking at her sad eyes, Ye Dingfeng asked excitedly: "Is the child mine?"
"At this point, I still need to lie to you, and you have met Kang'er yourself. Can't you see that his profile looks like yours?" Concubine Xian asked in return.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ye Dingfeng asked.
"Dingfeng, what should I say? I am just a woman sent to a foreign country to get married. I am helpless. What can I tell you? Can you save me if I tell you? Dingfeng, I love you, you are my life.
The only man I fell in love with, but I belong to another man, and he is the emperor, what should I say to you?" Concubine Xian asked.
"Then why do you say it now, even if..."
"Concubine Jin will not let me live. Kang'er is my weakness. Kang'er doesn't look like his father. Concubine Jin will make a big fuss about this sooner or later. But at this time, the facts have set the trend. If we don't want to strike first
, then he will be the one to make the move!"
"You...you want to attack Concubine Jin?" Ye Dingfeng asked.
"Yes, I am doing this for me and for our children. Dingfeng, I know you have doubts about my words. Kang'er is inside. Now you can drop a blood test for a parentage. If it proves that it is your child, I only need you."
Just do as I say!" Concubine Xian said.
Ye Dingfeng thought for a while and nodded. Half an hour later, he looked at the young child lying on the bed, with a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
Originally, what he hated most was this child, because this was the child given birth to by his favorite woman by the man who prevented him from moving there, but now he was his own flesh and blood.
"Dingfeng, for us and for our children, are you willing to help me?" Concubine Xian asked softly.
"For my son, and for you, I will take risks!" Ye Dingfeng finally gritted his teeth and agreed.
The emperor's birthday banquet was held for all the officials. In early autumn, the heat had not completely subsided, but after nightfall, it was quite cool. The birthday banquet was held in the square in front of the meeting hall. All civil and military officials were allowed to bring one of their wives, concubines, or children with them.
The emperor celebrated together.
Under the imperial family lineage, Ye Xuansheng, the Duke of Zhenguo, was in the first place on the left, and the left prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was sitting in the first place on the right.
Everyone present knew that Prime Minister Tang and Duke Ye Guo were actually related by marriage. Lin Haoming, the grandson of Prime Minister Tang, married the eldest granddaughter of Duke Ye. Unfortunately, Lin Haoming, the son-in-law of the head of the Lin family more than ten years ago, Zhendong General Lin Haoming, was killed, and his eldest son
Lin Haotian was also killed. Later, the second son Lin Haoming returned to his hometown to investigate, but he also disappeared without knowing it. He still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. On the contrary, the grandson-in-law of the Ye family has made rapid progress in cultivation and has now become the Xuan of the Three Mysteries.
Wang, it is really shocking, and Prime Minister Tang has always felt that the Ye family is most likely related to the death of his son-in-law, so the court has many constraints on the Ye family, and now there are indeed constant disputes in the court of Xuanxi Kingdom
.
But at this moment, on this seemingly happy day, all the civil and military officials were still beaming with joy on the surface. However, many people noticed that Zhang Ziyao, a literary giant of the generation who had no rank but was specially invited to the palace to celebrate, was accompanied by Zhang Ziyao.
The one she was looking at was neither the widowed granddaughter of the Ye family, nor the Mrs. Lian who was the envy of many brothel girls who had a good story about passing on the throne. She was actually an iceberg beauty who looked extremely cold. This caused a lot of good things.
The people were very surprised. Could it be that Zhang Wenhao, who was extremely affectionate to his wife and concubines, was marrying someone new? However, it was indeed exciting to see this new person so beautiful.
Lin Haoming also felt a little speechless from the eyes and even words of many people. Is this because of his mother? But look at Tang Lan, who practices the Bingxin Jue, and is indeed much younger than he looks now. It is no wonder that others misunderstood, but Tang Lan
Lan seemed to be aloof from the incident and didn't care at all. What she cared about was that the person behind the birthday party who might have killed her husband and son would appear.
"Mr. Zhang, you didn't take your son out for a walk?"
"It turns out it's Minister Yang. I only have one quota for my two sons. Whoever I bring out would be afraid of breaking the other's heart, so I simply won't bring him out. Besides, these two brats have to be calmed down."
"What Mr. Zhang said makes sense. Who is this girl?" Yang Shilang was about to become in-laws with Lin Haoming, so he didn't want others to just make innuendoes and asked directly.
"This is the person sent by Senior Huang of the Yuzhou Sword Sect to protect me. Many people have misunderstood her relationship with me. When my wife comes back, I will have to explain!"
"Oh! It turns out he's an expert from the Yuzhou Sword Sect. Nice to meet you!" Yang Shilang also misunderstood and immediately greeted Tang Lan.
Tang Lan just nodded and ignored it. Fortunately, she was a so-called expert, so Yang Shilang didn't care. Instead, he thought this was normal.
In this way, after chatting for a while, as one of the eunuchs Gao Shen shouted, the whole square became quiet, and the Emperor Nangong An was seen walking out of the inner palace and all the way here.
Most of the people present stood up and knelt down, but a few people did not kneel down. Lin Haoming was one of them. The reason why he did not kneel down was because King Yong asked Lin Haoming to teach his child, who also had a teacher.
As a disciple, there was no need to kneel down, and of course Tang Lan would not kneel down either.
Nangong An took his two most favored concubines and their two children and sat down together. Concubine Jin and Prince Guang sat on the left, while Concubine Xian and Prince Kang sat on the right.
After Nangong An asked everyone to stand up and sit down, he looked at Zhang Ziyao and asked with a smile: "Master Zhang, who is this girl next to you? She can't be my future new master's wife, right?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this Miss Lin was sent to me by Senior Huang Longzi to protect me. Senior Huang said that there has been some unrest recently and he didn't want to lose my old friend, so he sent Miss Lin to protect me. No one else can hurt me!"
Lin Haoming smiled.
"Haha, Senior Huang is indeed very special to Master Zhang. I have always wanted to see the honor of this No. 1 man in the world, but unfortunately I don't have this opportunity!" Nangong An sighed.
"Your Majesty, you are the supreme person, and Senior Huang is an expert outside the world. It would be best if we have a chance to meet you. If not, there is no need to force it. It has been more than sixteen years since Your Majesty took the throne. I think that when he first took the throne, Xuanxi Kingdom
We just experienced civil strife and everything was in despair. Now the weather is smooth and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. Your Majesty is also respected by all the people. This is a promising and wise king!"
Lin Haoming watched his grandpa stand up and say this, and he understood why he had been able to control the phase for so many years.
At this time, Ye Xuansheng suddenly came out and said: "Your Majesty, what Prime Minister Tang said is right. Now that the weather is good and the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, the old minister is working hard day and night. He no longer has the energy of his youth. Please allow your majesty to allow the old minister to retire and return to his hometown!"
