Bastards

Concubine Tian Gui was very wronged.

In her whole life, except for those few years when she was ignorant and ignorant of suffering and happiness, since she was a girl, she has never lived for herself.

For the sake of her parents and family, she disregarded shame, gave up the love in her heart, squeezed out all the little sisters, and did not hesitate to get blood on her hands, and clung to Emperor Taikang who was still the prince; Any grievances can be tolerated, even if she is low-key and small to please the deserted Princess Yuwen; at the critical moment of power alternation, in order to save the life of her eldest son, as well as her status in the backyard and palace, she committed herself to the Turkic man in front of her; The two sons have worked hard and never slack off in these years...

But what did she get?

The woman she hated died a long time ago, and no one listened to her wanting to show off.

Emperor Taikang doted on her, not because he really liked her, but because she was sensible and easy to use.

The two sons suddenly became enemies, and they no longer trusted her eyes. They thought she was partial to each other, let alone being close, and now there was not much love between mother and child.

This Turkic man, she gave birth to a son for him, and raised him well in the royal harem with the most blood, but he treated her like this!

No one is born lowly, works hard, and likes to serve others. She Tian Rufan comes from a higher background, even if she is a princess, how could she be in such a situation today?

She has to rely on and beg Taikang Emperor to live a good life, Taikang Emperor, she can't blame him; the two sons are all the flesh that fell from her body, no matter how uncomfortable she is, she can't bear to be harsh, but the Turkic man in front of her——

She doesn't owe him anything!On the contrary, he was sorry for her!

What face does he have, what right does he have to blame her like this!

Concubine Tian Gui's eyes were burning with fire, and her voice contained contempt: "You blame me for not taking care of the child. Do you dare to tell him the truth? Don't dare!" She raised her chin and took a step forward, "Tell Shu'er you It's his father, he will ask who you are, tell him who you are, he will ask what you are doing, tell him what you are doing, do you think he is excited or scared? One question is clear, and the next question follows , he himself can be entangled to death by these troubles!"

"The things you have learned since childhood, the ethics you have accepted, and what you enjoy as a prince is a matter of course. If you make it clear to him, he may accept it?"

Concubine Tian Gui took another step forward, her imposing manner: "You dare not! Neither will I! Raising him like this is not to protect him! He can't be an emperor, he can only be a virtuous king!"

It's a pity that Tian Guifei's appearance can scare others, but not this Turkic person.

He sneered directly: "But did you raise a virtuous king? That's an idiot!"

Concubine Tian Gui choked, and the hatred in her eyes became more intense: "If you hadn't been pushing me all the time, I wouldn't have dared to make him too sensible!"

The first two years were fine, and this person was still willing to listen to her. He kept a low profile and focused on protecting King Chang. After that, he didn't care about the troubles. His own development was also good, so he started thinking...

"So it's my fault that you can't raise your son well? Huh?"

Concubine Tian Gui gave him a hard push: "You don't even look at who you are! Da'an's country can only be surnamed Yang, and it can only be inherited by the King of Yue!"

"Fart, fart!" The Turkic voice suddenly rose, with the sharpness of sword friction, "My son is the most qualified to be emperor! No matter Da'an or Turkic, or any place, Lao Tzu's blood is the most noble and most worthy Take that seat!"

Concubine Tian Gui was frightened by his violent aura, and her heart trembled: "Then my King Yue..."

She knew that this Turk was too ruthless, she dared not touch anything, no one dared to kill, if King Chang came to power, then her King Yue would definitely end badly.It is because of this that she deliberately dotes on King Chang, indulges him, and makes the two brothers feel good...

"Now I know I was wrong?" The Turkic reached out and pinched Concubine Tian Gui's throat. The movement was not heavy, and even made people feel no pain, but it was full of threat. "Be good, listen to me, I can still see you." For the sake of serving you well, the King of Liuyue Commandery, now..."

Concubine Tian Gui looked at the Turkic man in horror, her teeth chattered, and she couldn't speak a word.

"Do you think you are great and wronged? Don't others appreciate you for putting so much effort into it?"

Enough of the threat, the Turkic man slowly moved his big hand up, gently stroking Concubine Tian's face like stroking a lover, and leaned down to touch Concubine Tian's ear, whispering like a sympathizer.

"You are just selfish, greedy for riches and honor, self-willed to be lowly, for the sake of a comfortable life, dignity, face, body, everything can be discarded, but you still want to find a cover for yourself to cover up, to show that you are so great. "

"You are so kind and loyal, with a proud heart, would you be willing to suffer from Taikang Emperor's bed abuse, would you wash yourself clean and climb on my bed? If you want to be a bitch, you still have to set up a memorial archway, and you're talking about your mother."

As if her entire face was torn off and thrown on the ground, Concubine Tian Guifei's face flushed red, her chest heaved, and she was panting heavily. She was so angry that her throat seemed to be closed, and she couldn't speak back.

"I tell you, your plan is useless." The Turkic laughed, his voice was low and hoarse, revealing perverted self-confidence, "Don't care what my son looks like now, his body is bleeding from my father, sooner or later At night, it can be reversed."

"Your considerations, your worries, are all bullshit."

"I didn't tell him the truth because he was still too young to figure things out. I sorted out all the troubles, and finally gave him a big gift, and put the throne in his hands safely, so that he wouldn't worry about it." With a little effort, there is no trouble, guess, will he resist?"

Concubine Tian Gui's eyes narrowed.

The throne...who wouldn't want it?But whoever has been a prince, it is impossible not to think about it.

Without a little effort, someone handed over the country. King Chang will definitely be surprised, but after the surprise, there is only joy.If you can control the world and become the supreme position, why should you resist?

At that time, what about her King of Yue?

The two brothers have become enemies now, if the Turkic people continue to lead King Chang to that direction, can King Yue still live?

Concubine Tian Gui's heart was cold, and she didn't dare to think in this direction anymore, she just gritted her teeth and held on to the matter in front of her: "We can discuss things in the future, but you shouldn't have given someone to your son without telling me! , but did not give him a brain, just now there is today's disaster!"

In any case, this time King Chang hoarded food and was imprisoned, and a series of evil results were all caused by this person!

The Turkic patted her on the face lightly: "Time is precious, you insist on arguing with me about this? Don't worry about Yue Junwang anymore? Huh?"

Concubine Tian Gui clenched her lips, not daring to provoke him anymore.

This guy can do anything.

"I... just want to save King Chang, so I want to think of an idea with you. It's not about King Yue, so don't involve him."

"He has been reduced to become the king of the county, and he is still called the king of Yue. After all, he is a mother."

The East Turkistan smiled teasingly, Concubine Tian Guifei's face was slightly ugly, but she didn't speak back.

The Turkic people probably didn't expect to have a complete falling out with Concubine Tian. Seeing her quiet down, the voice softened a little, "King Chang is still young, ignorant, and made some mistakes, but King Yuejun is not forgiving. I'm about to use my tricks, trying to kill my son. He wants to mess with us father and son, and I can't let him bully me, I have to fight back..."

He looked like 'Look, it's not my fault, I was forced too': "It's not that you don't know who I am, and if something goes wrong, it's a fatal event. He bit me so hard, how could I Can you teach me a lesson? Jia Yixiu of my father was killed by his people. I want to bear it, but I can't help it. I think you have to take good care of your son, after all. There is only one, next time, it will not be so easy..."

Finally able to speak well and be reasonable, Concubine Tian Guifei also felt that the Yuejun King did something wrong, so she didn't talk back, her eyes drooped, and she acquiesced.

This matter is not pursued, but King Chang has to find a way.

"Where is Shu'er..."

The Turkic man laughed again, and lightly patted Concubine Tian's face, tenderly like a lover: "Our concubine is very capable, what is such a trivial matter? It will definitely be settled."

Concubine Tian Gui's face darkened, did she want her to figure out a way for herself?

If she could do it, what would she do with him!

The Turkic people ignored Concubine Tian Gui's black face: "I will lend you a few people as envoys. You should behave well. This time will be smooth, and my son will be fine. I will spare you and let the king of Yuejun go. If you can't do it Alright... There was someone looking at my son in the prison, no matter what happened, my son would definitely not die, but I was in a bad mood, so I took action myself, you and your Yuejun King, don't even think about it !"

Concubine Tian Gui trembled.

"I'll send you another message..."

The Turkic man leaned forward, leaned close to Tian Guifei's ear, and said a few words.

Concubine Tian Gui's beautiful eyes widened sharply, then narrowed a little bit, as the color of her eyes fluctuated, many thoughts fluctuated, and in an instant, countless ideas were born and countless ideas were eliminated.

At the end, she actually laughed, looked at the Turkic people with shrewd eyes and teased: "You are not afraid of them—"

"This is the kind of woman I like..."

The Turkic man stepped forward and kissed Concubine Tian Gui, with his left hand he squeezed Concubine Tian Gui's waist, and his right hand walked down restlessly.

Concubine Tian Gui knew men best, and she let out a sticky moan at the right time, wrapping her hands around the Turkic man's neck.

That's right, how could she have forgotten that what this person likes is her wildness, her hotness, and her boldness. Even if she wants to cry, she has to be on the bed. When she is next to her, if she is weak or wronged, she will naturally be looked down upon!

The Turkic man sneered at Concubine Tian Gui while slapping his hands on it: "...the little bastard in a county who doesn't even know who I am, I will be afraid of them? It's you, concubine concubine, don't make mistakes a few times, and you will be scared to death." Courage..."

……

On the side of the West Side Hall.

Xiang Ling asked Concubine Tian Gui every quarter of an hour for news.

The following reply is timely, serious and brief.

everything is normal.

Still resting, not getting up.A court lady made too much noise and almost quarreled with the empress, and was punished by the nanny.

Woke up, a little later than the estimated time, the grain steamed crispy cheese was a little cold, a little tight, the taste was wrong, the empress lost her temper.Fortunately, I was afraid of making things under the kitchen, so I prepared two servings, and the last one will be steamed and sent up immediately, so the empress is satisfied.

After eating the crispy cheese, the room was quiet for a while, and the empress began to ask the nanny to dress her up, as if she was going to visit Merlin later.Some of the hairpins were not matched properly, and the empress was upset, so she dropped the teacup.

Because of this accident, the time to visit Merlin will naturally be postponed. How long it will be postponed depends on the mood of the empress...

Xiang Ling listened, and suddenly squinted, feeling something was wrong!

"Have you seen the imperial concubine herself?"

The little eunuch who sent the message was a little dazed, and thought about it for a long time before shaking his head: "No, no outsiders are allowed into the empress's house, and it is served by Nanny Gui and the maids from the palace, and even the pastry is served by people from inside. went in."

"That is to say, no one has ever entered the imperial concubine's room."

"Yes."

"But the imperial concubine punished someone, and a court lady came out of the house."

"Yes."

"Where is the maid who was punished, do you know?"

The little eunuch shook his head: "He ran away with his head down, probably went somewhere to cry, but no one saw him."

Everyone in the palace was sensitive, and the little eunuch felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he asked cautiously: "Master Xiang, what happened? The empress... is really angry, and wants to punish us?"

Xiang Ling smiled, and comforted: "It's okay, I'm just being considerate, ask a few more questions, the empress is generous, she won't embarrass the people below, go get busy."

After coaxing the little eunuch away, the smile on Xiang Ling's face stopped.

There is no need to check Concubine Tian's room, she is definitely not there.

This noble concubine Tian is really smart, she made so many requests and found so many things for him before, and in the end she lightly asked to see Merlin, so he thought that the key point, the secret meeting time in Meilin, was also at that time.I don't want Concubine Tian Gui to play cards unreasonably and come out early, no wonder she asks for all kinds of quiet and not to be disturbed, because she is afraid that others will find out.

Where did Concubine Tian Gui go in this huge mausoleum?

Xiang Ling closed his eyes and thought quietly.

The sacrificial mausoleum is very large, and the place not against the mountain is very empty. If you can see the bottom at a glance, Concubine Tian Gui will not run around casually.The place near the mountain was covered by trees, but considering the safety of the emperor, the imperial guards patrolled by point, which was inconvenient.

After much deliberation, the quietest and safest place was Merlin.

Concubine Tian Gui said that she wanted to go shopping and clean up. As the person in charge, it is definitely impossible for him to clean up when the time comes. He must disperse the crowd and get ready first...

Therefore, it must still be that little Merlin!

While thinking, Xiang Ling pondered, and the map of the imperial mausoleum came to mind.

The little plum forest is very close to Concubine Tian's residence, and there is a small road leading directly to the back of the imperial mausoleum...

When he opened his eyes again, the corners of Xiang Ling's eyes were slightly raised, and the bottom of his eyes was full of a confident smile.

I can't believe I can't catch you!

He summoned his subordinates to explain a few words, arranged a few things, and left with his hands behind his back.

While walking, the prince and Cui Yu's request was in his mind.

Because he was not sure whether the Turkic people would come and whether the person who came was a substitute, he could not arrest them immediately in order not to startle the enemy.And because he didn't fully understand the power of the Turkic people, and he didn't know how powerful the Turkic people themselves were, how good they were at laying gu and poisoning, so he couldn't get close to them rashly.

We must first focus on exploration, and then adapt to the situation. If the assessment level can be grasped, we can naturally act boldly. If there are any accidents, we need to be cautious.

This person has been lurking in Da'an for decades, and his methods are definitely not low. As long as he does not arouse the other party's suspicion, he can get to the bottom and see his appearance, it will be a big gain!

It just so happened that the previous ceremony was over, and Xiang Ling deliberately arranged for the people below to pass the wrong words, attracting the attention of the Yuejun King, and let the Yuejun King go to the road leading to Xiaomeilin...

As for himself, he was one step earlier, avoiding the eyes of everyone, and quietly flew towards Xiaomeilin.

The plum grove is not big, and there are not many buildings in the imperial mausoleum, only mountains, rocks and trees, it is convenient to block people, but it is also convenient for others to find.

Xiang Ling raised his breath and approached carefully bit by bit.

Anyone with high martial arts skills has a good sense of danger. If one is higher than the other, the higher one will definitely take advantage. The other party does not know that he exists, but he knows the other party; When reaching a certain distance, there will be a voice in my heart: I can't go any further.

The word aura is not just a noun.

Of course, if you are not careful or careless, you will be picked up by the other party.

When Xiang Ling arrived, it was the time when the two of them had the most violent quarrel, and most of the scenes were good, so he caught his eye.

He didn't approach rashly, but pricked up his ears to hear the conversation between the two clearly.

Until the hooded man in white began to attack Concubine Tian Gui, Concubine Tian Gui also co-operated coquettishly...

The king of Yuejun has arrived.

Xiang Ling turned around and retreated carefully, and then came from another direction, just in time to intercept the king of Yuejun.

King Yue was surprised to see him: "Xiang Ling? Why are you here?"

Xiang Ling looked serious: "The imperial concubine is going to admire the plum grove later, and the officials came to check whether the roads are cleared. The imperial concubine specially told me that if you want to be quiet for a while, your highness might as well—"

"Are you letting this king go?" The more serious and upright he was, the more strange the King Yue felt, "This king is the son of the imperial concubine!"

Xiang Ling 'hesitated' for a moment, but said firmly, "Your Majesty said she wanted to be quiet."

"This king is not troublesome!"

"But ma'am—"

"Step aside!"

The more Xiang Ling stopped, the more curious King Yue became. Finally, impatient, he pushed Xiang Ling away and strode forward.

After a few steps, through a few trees, I saw Concubine Tian and the man in white with a hood.

"Your Highness—His Royal Highness King Yue—" Xiang Ling dutifully came over to stop him, and naturally saw the two of them.

He pretended very well, and his surprised expression was just right: "Your Majesty... have you come over already?"

In fact, I laughed out loud in my heart.

The timing is really good!

The time he stopped Yuejun Wang was just a few words and a few breaths, but this Turkic man knows martial arts, this time is enough to avoid running away.But this Turkic man didn't do anything serious, he just took off his pants and asked for something, so he was ready!

The man's lower body went crazy, but he could not even save his life. At the critical moment, how could he get out with a quick kick?

Even if he could withdraw, would he run with his pants up and his butt naked?

He can run, how does Concubine Tian Gui explain?

The bottom dress is not neat, could it be that he is urgent to urinate and find a place to solve it?What about the soft body, can't stand it?What about the look of spring?

We are all experienced people, who are we lying to?

However, Xiang Ling still expressed his admiration for Tian Guifei and the Turkic people for being able to clean up so quickly.

The four stood facing each other, and the atmosphere was rather awkward.

The king of Yuejun was a little confused. His mother and concubine, who had no servants around him, met a foreigner in this plum grove?

On such a cold day, the concubine mother's face was flushed from the cold, the corners of her eyes were also a little red, and her breathing was still a little anxious. Is there something important that I want to talk to others about?Or... is there any accident?

The Turkic hooded robe covered himself tightly, not even showing his eyes, standing behind Concubine Tian Gui, very quiet, could it be that there were only four people at the scene, his sense of presence must not be high.

But Xiang Ling didn't ignore him, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly, and the bottom of his eyes was rosy, without any trace, and he observed him with utmost precision.

This Turkic man looked very quiet, but in fact he was very vigilant, his body was tense, and he stood in a clever posture, a posture that could walk immediately if there was any accident.The large burqa covers the body, making it impossible to see the size of the figure, but there is wind in the forest, and it blows from time to time, and Xiang Ling can easily follow the wind. There is a row of small long-necked porcelain vases. It is unknown whether the poison or Gu worms are placed in it.

Also, the right hand under the man's robe was open, as if holding a hidden weapon, and his left hand moved slightly, as if making some gesture.

Xiang Ling didn't know what signal this gesture represented, but he knew that this way was to notify others.This Turkic man didn't come alone, he was prepared and arranged for a counterattack!

From the looks of it, it's not easy to do.

Concubine Tian Gui knows the Turkic people best, although she doesn't know what secret tricks this person has, but this person is really sinister, let's just pass this time, if he can't pass, he will definitely kill someone!

That's all for Xiang Ling, her King of Yue... must not be folded here!

Concubine Tian Guifei was very nervous, but she put on a relaxed and calm look on her face, and opened her mouth as an excuse: "Oh, I came to admire the plum blossoms, and happened to meet a sacrificial witch, so I stopped to say hello. Yang'er, you How did you come here? And Mr. Xiang—"

This is a good excuse, since today is the mausoleum, there are various rituals to be done, and all kinds of people should be invited.

The king of Yue County was a little lost, Xiang Ling smiled and cupped his hands: "I think that my mother will come to visit the Meilin later, and I need to come here to see if the people have been dispersed. His Royal Highness probably just wants to relax. Came here by accident."

Concubine Tian Gui was very satisfied with Xiang Ling's performance, and immediately answered: "It's cold outside, and I have been admiring the plum blossoms for a while, and I just felt something wrong, so I have to go back."

Xiang Ling is very sensible, and he answered the words very quickly: "Then the next official will send the empress back—"

This accompaniment and singing are called flowing clouds and flowing water, the more natural it looks, the more unnatural it seems.

The king of Yue County became suspicious: "Wait a minute!"
