But Emperor Xia is the emperor, and the emperor's noble concubine can only be a noble concubine forever.

Lin Xiu suddenly realized one thing, the relationship between the imperial concubine and His Majesty is not the same as that between him and Zhao Lingjun, right?

After making this assumption, things that he didn't understand before can be explained.

No wonder the imperial concubine was not angry when she saw His Majesty flirting with a pretty widow outside, but she offered to help him and let the pretty widow enter the palace.

His Majesty doesn't care at all if the imperial concubine goes out of the palace, or even spends the night outside the palace.

Among the one queen and four concubines, she is the only one who has no heirs.

It is said that the imperial concubine is a favorite concubine, and Emperor Xia is indeed very kind to her, but Lin Xiu has never seen him appear in Changchun Palace on weekdays. What kind of favorite concubine is this?

At this moment, all doubts in his heart were resolved.

Damn the Zhang family, they ruined the lifelong happiness of the imperial concubine and empress.

They let a girl whose heart was in the south of the Yangtze River live in a secluded deep palace in Kyoto for 16 years.

This debt, he will get it back for the imperial concubine.

After returning to Beijing and seeing her parents, the first thing Lin Xiu looked at was the imperial concubine.

Then, he brought gifts and came to Xue's residence.

It's not that the imperial concubine is more important than Ning'er, it's just that when he comes to Xue's mansion, he must stay with her for a while, even at night, but in the harem, he can't stay for too long, he must leave before dark.

Xue House.

In the innermost courtyard, as soon as Lin Xiu put down the gift, a beautiful figure flew towards him and threw herself into his arms. It had been a month since Xue Ning'er wanted to kiss her beloved passionately, but her lips had already moved together. , Suddenly there was an explosion in the yard.

"shut up!"

Old Duke Xue let out a stern voice, and separated the two at a critical moment.

Xue Ning'er bit her lip and said, "Grandpa, can we be alone for a while?"

Old Duke Xue snorted coldly: "No, you are not his, so please be more reserved."

Xue Ning'er could only sit at the table in an orderly manner. Lin Xiu opened a pastry box, picked up a piece of pastry, and put it into her mouth. Express dissatisfaction.

Lin Xiu didn't make progress either. At this moment, Xue Ning'er smiled and said to him, "In the future, I can protect you too..."

She stretched out her hand, and Lin Xiu's body suddenly lifted off the ground and floated in the air.

Lin Xiu was surprised and said, "You have reached a higher level!"

He is not surprised that Lingyin and Minghe stepped into the ground level, because they have already advanced to the upper level of the Xuan level, and they have enough accumulation. He is not surprised that Qin Wan stepped into the ground level, because she can treat Yuan Jing as a meal Eat, but Ning'er has only been promoted to the upper level of the mysterious rank for half a year, how come she is at the low rank?

Old Duke Xue snorted coldly and said, "Boy, I said before that if you don't work hard, you won't be worthy of my granddaughter."

Lin Xiu looked at Old Master Xue, then at Xue Ning'er, and seemed to understand something.

Old Duke Xue is at the Heaven rank, and Ning'er is at the Mystic rank. If a Heaven rank expert is willing to sacrifice his own cultivation base, he can forcibly elevate a person of Mystic rank to the Earth rank.

But almost no one does.

Because it's not worth it.

Which heaven-level powerhouse is willing to give up his own practice, just to create a ground-level, Xue Laogong really loves her, in terms of talent, Lingyin and Minghe are not inferior to Ning'er, they lose to those who do not have a heaven-level grandfather.

When Lin Xiu left Xue's house, it was already late.

When he came to the new house, the door was closed from the inside, which meant that Qin Wan was at home.

Lin Xiu didn't knock on the door, and the custom passed over the wall.

The light in Qin Wan's room was on, and the door was open. Lin Xiu walked to the door. Qin Wan, who was reading a book, turned her head and glanced at Lin Xiu, her gaze gradually changed into resentment, and asked, "Do you know how many days I've had?" How did it go?"

Chapter 197 Shuangshuang's Worries

Facing Qin Wan's resentful eyes, Lin Xiu said with a guilty conscience: "Didn't you come here like this before when I wasn't there?"

Qin Wan looked at him and asked: "When you didn't take concubines before, didn't you come here like this, now can you leave your second wife for a month?"

Qin Wan's words made Lin Xiu unable to refute.

There is a word called food marrow to know taste.

After trying something for the first time, she wants to try it for the second time and the third time. Lin Xiu is like this, and obviously Qin Wan is also like this.

He defended himself and said: "You can't blame me, I can't be by your side all the time, next time I see Shuangshuang, let her prescribe a prescription for you, and it shouldn't hurt so much. "

Afterwards, he asked Qin Wan, "Is there anything to eat at home?"

When he was at Xue's house, he was only focused on feeding Ning'er, and he hasn't had dinner yet.

Qin Wan glanced at him and said, "Wait a while."

Qin Wan was busy in the kitchen. Lin Xiu came to Lingyin's room. When Lingyin left, he also said to help her clean the room. The trip to the south of the Yangtze River lasted for a month. Lin Xiu thought her room had accumulated a lot of dust, but When I came to her room, I found that both the floor and the table and bed were spotless, obviously someone cleaned it frequently. .

He looked at his room again, Ake's room was also clean.

Needless to say, Qin Wan must have done this.

Among all the women Lin Xiu knew, she was the one who knew how to manage the house best.

After a while, she brought out a bowl of chicken noodle soup with two poached eggs lying on it. Lin Xiu ate it up, even drank the soup, and said with emotion: "After being outside for so long, I still miss the taste of this bowl of noodles... "

Qin Wan sat opposite him, resting her chin on one hand, looked at him with blinking eyes, and said, "This is a bowl of ten coins."

Lin Xiu didn't take it to heart at all. After all, she owed him 1 taels, and she could eat a bowl of noodles every day, which would last her entire life.

He asked casually, "Have you ever calculated how much silver you still owe me?"

Qin Wan said: "Counting the bowl of noodles just now, I have already paid you back 250, [-], [-] Wen."

Lin Xiu was surprised: "Is there so much? Did you make a mistake?"

Qin Wan glanced at him indifferently, and said: "Should I let you look at the account book, I remember every account clearly, how many times, I have conjured up Zhao Lingyin for you..."

Lin Xiu waved her hands again and again: "No need, no need..."

Similar to things like warming the bed and stacking the quilt, beating the back and pinching the legs, Qin Wan’s price is very conscientious, ranging from ten yuan to tens of yuan at a time, but when it comes to illusion, even if it’s just to pull the spirit sound The hand also needs a tael of silver.

And it can only be false.

If you want her to transform into a spirit voice, the price will be more than ten times. This is just holding hands. On this basis, if you want to go further and do something else, the price will be even higher.

Lin Xiu thought of one thing and said to her, "It's just right, I need you to do me a favor."

Qin Wan said: "If you ask me for help, but you have to pay the money, it will be deducted from the money I owe you."

She really fell into Qian's eye, but Lin Xiu didn't care, and asked, "Have you ever been to Jiangnan?"

Qin Wan said: "I haven't been there."

She grew up in the capital, and she may have never even been out of the capital. Fortunately, Lin Xiu had prepared for it a long time ago. He returned to the room, and then took out a beautiful picture of the south of the Yangtze River that he had prepared a long time ago from the space, and walked out Hand it over to Qin Wan, and said, "Can you conjure up the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River in this picture?"

Although Lin Xiu can also use illusion, but with his ability, he still can't do it.

This requires meticulous control of mental power.

Moreover, he can't expose his ability in front of the imperial concubine at the moment. With so many secret agents around her, if anyone finds out, Lin Xiu will be in great trouble.

Qin Wan looked at the picture of the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and said: "It is possible, but, to transform so many things, it will consume a lot of energy...and the price will be very expensive."

"How much silver?"

"100 taels."

100 taels is indeed very expensive, but thinking that someone dared to sell a jar of wine and a bottle of perfume for 100 taels, Lin Xiu felt that this price was not bad. If it was him, the asking price might be even higher.

Lin Xiu looked at her, nodded, and said, "Deal."

Lin Xiu has been to the south of the Yangtze River. In order to prevent any mistakes in Qin Wan's illusion, he first experienced it himself and gave her some suggestions for revision. Qin Wan went back to sleep tiredly when he was tossing her to the bed.

Standing in the yard, Lin Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that the imperial concubine would like this special gift.

……

Early the next morning, the imperial concubine arrived at the new residence, Lin Xiu and Caiyi were already waiting for her here.

Because he had space to store things, Lin Xiu bought a lot of gifts when he came back this time. Besides food, he also had many souvenirs with Jiangnan characteristics.

The imperial concubine was holding an exquisitely embroidered round fan. Although these things were available in the Changchun Palace, this gift had a different meaning in her heart.

Lin Xiu stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, besides these, I have a special gift for you."

The imperial concubine's pretty face showed anticipation, and asked, "What gift?"

Lin Xiudao: "Major, please close your eyes."

The imperial concubine's expression was more expectant, and she slowly closed her eyes.

Lin Xiu gave Qin Wan a wink, Qin Wan looked intently at the imperial concubine, and at a certain moment, nodded slightly.

Lin Xiudao: "Your Majesty, you can open your eyes now."

The imperial concubine opened her eyes, the expression on her face became confused at the next moment, and then shocked and unbelievable.

The moment she opened her eyes, she saw the scenery that had only appeared in her dreams all these years.

She is not in the courtyard of Lin Xiu's house, but is standing on the prow of a black-covered boat, floating slowly with the emerald green river. On both sides of the river, there are narrow bluestone streets. On both sides of the street, there are white walls and black tiles, which is a place she is familiar with. .

At this moment, she seemed to have returned to Jiangnan.

Lin Xiu saw a smile on the face of the imperial concubine that he had never seen before.

But soon, he saw that Qin Wan's face turned pale, her body swayed, and she fell down powerlessly.

Lin Xiu hurriedly supported her, carried her back to the room, put her on the bed, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Next, you should rest well."

Qin Wan looked at Lin Xiu weakly, and said, "For the sake of my hard work, can I add another 100 taels?"

Lin Xiu covered her with a quilt and said helplessly, "Add..."

The corner of Qin Wan's mouth curled up, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Lin Xiu walked into the courtyard, the imperial concubine was still standing there in a daze, Linglong and Shuangshuang looked puzzled, they didn't know what happened yet.

The noble concubine looked at Lin Xiu and murmured, "Just now... how did you do it?"

Lin Xiu explained: "This is Miss Wan'er's magical ability. I asked her to create such an illusion for my empress. She has never been to the south of the Yangtze River. If there is something wrong, please don't blame my empress."

The imperial concubine smiled slightly, looked at Lin Xiu, and said, "Thank you, this is the best gift I have ever received."

Lin Xiu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are welcome."

As long as she likes it, he will give her better gifts in the future.

On the other side, Shuangshuang's mood is a bit complicated.

Brother Lin really understands the heart of the imperial concubine, and he has put a lot of thought into the imperial concubine. If she were the imperial concubine, I'm afraid she would like him too.

Although this is to treat the imperial concubine and empress.

As a doctor, Shuangshuang knows very well that it is actually a disease for a patient to fall in love with a doctor.

There are records of this situation in medical books.

Especially for the imperial concubine, her illness is a heart disease. If you want to cure her, you must open her heart. During this process, the patient can easily develop a special affection for the doctor who treats her.

If this doctor is young and handsome and understands her mind, the possibility of this kind of thing happening will be even greater.

If this happened to someone else, it might be passed on as a good story.

But their identities did not allow anything to happen to them.

Even if the imperial concubine is still a perfect body, she is also a noble concubine, Shuang Shuang sighed in her heart, she didn't know what to do.

……

When Qin Wan woke up, she didn't have much strength.

After a while, Lin Xiu came in from the outside, carrying a bowl of vegetable porridge with lean meat. Qin Wan smelled the aroma and wanted to sit up, but she fell down weakly while supporting the bed with her arms.

Lin Xiu walked to the bed, put two pillows on her back, let her lean on the bed, and said, "Just lie down like this, I will feed you, and I won't charge you. Thank you very much today."

Seeing the spoon Lin Xiu stretched out, Qin Wan opened her mouth, still a little uncomfortable.

No one has ever done this to her.

After taking a sip of porridge, she frowned slightly and said, "It's hot..."

Lin Xiu had no choice but to blow it on her lips, and when she brought it to Qin Wan's mouth again, she glanced at Lin Xiu and said, "There won't be your saliva in it, right?"
