C291 self-reproach

Originally, there were many seniors in the imperial court who harbored grudges towards him, but after hearing what Xuanyuan Zhan said, they were relieved, and no longer felt that way.

"Your Majesty, although His Majesty has done wrong in this matter, in the end, it is still the work of a traitor. If it weren't for the fact that the traitor had interfered, how could things have ended up like this? I hope Your Majesty does not blame yourself. "

"I second that!"

Xuanyuan Zhan looked down at the ministers below, and the corners of his mouth raised. It seemed like what Yu Er said was right, these officials that could not change their ways, as long as there was even the slightest amount of compromise, they would all become extremely easy to talk about.

Within Fengyi Palace.

Feng Yu was currently playing with Dou Dou in the palace. Ever since Feng Yu and Dou Dou had returned, the concubines in the imperial harem had noticed the importance that Xuanyuan Zhan placed on Feng Yu and no one dared to do anything to them anymore.

When Xuanyuan Zhan returned to the palace, he doted on the phoenix feathers alone. Ignoring the objections of all the ministers, he ordered all the concubines that had not been favored to be released from the palace.

Feng Yu looked at Xuanyuan Zhan in amusement, "You have done so many things for me, and those ministers were already dissatisfied to begin with. Now, for the sake of me to depose the imperial harem and take care of me alone, I'm afraid those stubborn old fellows will only make things difficult for you."

"So what?" Xuanyuan Zhan said indifferently: "They are unconvinced in my heart, but there's nothing they can do, I am the emperor, furthermore, I only like you, what about you, the other women, I don't even want them, leaving them in the palace is just a waste of their years, when they are old and full of resentment, they have yet to receive any favors, or else they would be lonely like my matriarch." Xuanyuan Zhan said indifferently as he held Feng Yu. It wasn't hard to hear the sadness in his words whenever he mentioned his matriarch.

"I don't want to be like my royal father. My royal father only has one person, but he has countless concubines in his imperial harem." Xuanyuan Zhan said, "They all said that royal father is the emperor, he should have been born with three thousand of the six palaces and six courtyards, but do you know? The more concubines he has for royal father, the more his love would no longer be directed towards a single person. My royal father had divided his love into countless parts for his concubines, but as he divided them among his concubines more, it would naturally be unfair, and the love he gave to his concubines would be unequal. Just like the matriarch, he would not be able to obtain the favor of his concubines, but he would live his life in peace without any desire. Xuanyuan Zhan said indifferently.

Seeing Xuanyuan Zhan in such a state, a trace of bitterness emerged from the bottom of Feng Yu's heart. So it was because of his matriarch that he was like this. How could she not understand? Wasn't her body like this as well?

Feng Yu reached out his hands and wrapped them around Xuanyuan Zhan's waist, lightly patting his back to comfort him.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, mother and father are bashful and shy!" Just as the two were deep in love, that little bastard Dou Dou broke the tranquility at the right time.

Feng Yu was a little embarrassed. After all, she hadn't lived a life full of disgust when she was in front of a child, not to mention that Xuanyuan Zhan himself was already a child's mother, so why would he need two people to be so tired of her. Feng Yu wanted to retract her hand, but Xuanyuan Zhan, who had seen through Feng Yu's intentions, grabbed both of her hands.

He turned around and looked at Dou Dou unhappily, "I'm talking about Dou Dou. If you know that your mother and father are so bored, why aren't you leaving?

"Shame." Dou Dou made a face at the two of them and ran over. He was truly happy in his heart. Seeing that his mother was so happy with his father, Dou Dou also felt happy in his heart.

Within the cave.

"What are you doing here?" The man in black was facing a man in black. The two of them looked at each other, and one of the men in black said in a bad mood.

Hearing his words, the man in black slowly took off his cape and hat. Behind the cape was the face of an old man.

"What, I'm fine, so I can't come to see you?" The old man said.

The black clothed man snorted: "You came to see me? Humph! I'm afraid I'm dreaming! Is there anything more important in your heart than your cause of restoring your country? "

The black-clothed man was completely disdainful. He wouldn't believe his lies and come to see him. Humph!

"Yes!" Of course, there is nothing more important than restoring our country. You must remember, our Lin Family has been loyal to the Northern Qin Imperial Family for generations, and we were born Northern Qin citizens. The old man said excitedly.

"Lin Mu, your body is for the Northern Qin. We cannot forget the shame of the Northern Qin at all times. You are a descendant of my Lin Family, you must never forget the glory of the Lord."

"But the Northern Qin Capital has already been dead for so many years!" The black-robed youth called Lin Mu said, "Why are you still unwilling to give up, could it be that it's only because of the oath you made to the Northern Qin Imperial Family? However, that has already been a long time. What's more, that Chen Nuo who is already part of our ancestors, what does that have to do with us? "

"How dare you!" The old man's face sank, "How can you speak like that? You are disrespecting your highness."

"Your king is no longer here. Father, wake up." "What?" Lin Mu was flustered. Think about how much you have already given for the sake of this ridiculous promise. Do you still want to place all of their Lin Family's lives on the line here? "

"Yes sir!" "This is dignity, this is glory! This is the glory of our Lin Family for generations to come. "

"Father, do you know that you almost caused the world to change hands again just for this vow and promise that's been gone for hundreds of years already? You nearly caused the people of the world to go through another ordeal?"

Hearing Lin Mu say this, the old man's heart became even more angry, "Humph! When you said that, I got angry. Our original plan was successful very quickly. It was all that woman, Xi Feng He Shuo, who destroyed my grand plan. If it wasn't for her, the poisoner would have already succeeded, and if she hadn't gone back on her word, Xuanyuan Zhan would have already died. "

"Father!" Lin Mu looked at the old man in disbelief. He couldn't believe that his father had been confined to such a state because of this abnormal shackle.

"However, even though I lost a good opportunity to kill Xuanyuan Zhan, I still have to say that I have to thank her for letting me know a heaven-shaking secret that was hidden for more than twenty years." "This is also the reason why I have called you here today."

"Didn't you always ask me that there are no descendants left in the previous Qin Dynasty? I am now telling you, it is not that there are no descendants, but this descendant. Back then, her mother had secretly hidden her in the capital and now, we have already found her. " The old man said coldly, "Your mission now is to tell her everything about us and convince her to kill Xuanyuan Zhan."

"Let him kill Xuanyuan Zhan?" Lin Mu could not believe it, if he was truly the descendant of the previous Qin, these old things would act as treasures and protect him, why would they let him kill Xuanyuan Zhan, wasn't this asking for death?

"You will never be able to figure out who this descendant is." The old man said.

"Because of this, it actually aroused Lin Mu's curiosity." "Who exactly is this person you're talking about?"

"She is the current Empress of the Xiao Kingdom, wife of Xuanyuan Zhan, Feng Yu!" The old man said.

"What?" Lin Mu was shocked. He remembered that woman. In the past, in so many missions, he had almost killed her. How could it be her?

"That's right, it's her." The old man said, "This is an opportunity given to us by the heavens. If she knew of her identity, she would know that she was a princess from the previous dynasty. With her family's blood feud, how could she still love Xuanyuan Zhan that much? "

Lin Mu could not accept the old man's words. At the same time, Lin Mu was extremely shocked by the old man's words.

"Are you sure? Are you sure? " He clearly remembered back then Xifeng and Shuo Shuo saying that this woman was the reincarnation of Phoenix.

"Whether it's true or not, wouldn't you know after sneaking into the palace to investigate?" The old man said, "I was by your side when you were with this child under the Empress Ning Xu. I clearly remember that child's back had a birthmark of the Resurrection Lily on it. When he was born, heaven and earth shook, and thunder and rain crashed together. "At that time, everyone was even more shocked. Some Magi predicted that in the future, this girl will definitely avenge our country." The old man slowly spoke of what happened back then, "It's a pity …"

Twenty years ago.

Since the destruction of the country, there had always been a remnant force that protected the previous Qin generation for generations. Their sole purpose was to restore the former Qin.

For so many years, the former Qin Yu party had always been enemies with the Xiao Kingdom, never ceasing. He remembered that day, the previous Qin Xiao had led the remnants of the previous Qin Dynasty to fight against the Xiao Kingdom troops that surrounded them. However, at that time, Empress Ning Xu was pregnant and was on the verge of death.

That night, the storm raged as thunder and lightning struck. They escaped the pursuit of the Xiao Kingdom soldiers and hid inside a rundown temple.

"King! "Wang!" The Empress of Ning Xu hid in the embrace of the previous Qin Xiao, his face filled with fear.

"Ning Xu, don't be afraid. I will definitely protect you and your son." The previous Qin Xiao held Ning Xu tightly in his embrace.

Ning Xu trembled as he opened his eyes and looked at the woman who was protecting him in her arms.

From the moment she fell in love with him, to when she decided without hesitation that she would spend her life with him. She already knew in her heart that such a thing was inevitable. It was just that after experiencing so much together, she had never felt so terrified like this. She was so afraid, so afraid of losing him, of losing the child in her womb.
