The Regent always wants me to take maternity leave [Transmigration Book]

When Lian Yinlian heard Jiang Yanlan's words, the first thing that popped up in his mind was a big question mark.

Lian's secret?The stability of Dayi?

Is this the proof of the king who can rule the world if obtained in the legend?

Hearing this, Nie Linfeng couldn't help but frown: "Ma'am, it's not right for me to stay here..."

"It's okay, you are from my own family." Jiang Yanlan waved her hand, "Besides... I don't know much about the jade pendant. The late emperor has been looking into the matter of this jade when he was alive, but I rarely ask, so I may not be able to tell Tell me what you want to know."

"It's all right." Lian Yinlian thought about the books and objects in the dark room, guessing that all the clues he found were there, "Just say as much as the mother knows, and we will figure out the rest by ourselves."

Jiang Yanlan nodded: "In fact, the meaning of this jade is known to all the veterans who follow your father. Do you know Penglai?"

Lian Yinlian nodded hesitantly: "The queen mother is talking about the legendary Penglai Island where immortals live?"

Nie Linfeng added: "It is said that Penglai is located in a place on the sea, which cannot be reached by those who are destined. It is hard to say whether there are immortals on the island, but it is said that there are many capable people and strange people."

Jiang Yanlan nodded: "I have heard from your father that this jade is a map leading to Penglai Island, and it is also a token. If there is any difficulty, the royal family will take this piece of jade to go there, and Penglai Island will definitely help you." Help out."

Lian Yinlian was a little dazed, why did it feel like a fairy tale?

Jiang Yanlan went on to say: "Your father was lucky enough to go to the South and North Wars, and the national teacher was brought back that time."

"Shunzi is from Penglai?"

Jiang Yanlan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What Shunzi, it's not a little eunuch, the national teacher has a name and a surname, and his name is Ning Changqing."

"Oh." Lian Yinlian touched the tip of his nose, a little embarrassed, "I'm used to it, but... I haven't seen him since I came back."

Nie Linfeng explained: "He said that he wanted to travel in the clouds, but he never appeared again after that."

Lian Yinlian understood, and looked at Jiang Yanlan again: "Then mother, you said that this matter is related to a secret of the Lian family, so what's going on?"

Speaking of this, Jiang Yanlan couldn't help sighing, and she spoke with a bit of unconcealable disappointment: "You also know that your father and prince don't have many heirs, and most of them died young. The few who managed to survive back then were either An accident, or a sudden illness, your second brother is always sick, only you... grew up healthy and healthy."

Lian Yinlian nodded, he really picked up this throne.

Jiang Yanlan sighed again: "Actually, not only your father is like this, but the whole family is like this. You didn't realize...you have very few uncles, and none of them are your father's compatriots."

Lian Yinlian was at a loss, Nie Linfeng rubbed his head and took over the words: "Indeed, otherwise the late emperor wouldn't have made me the regent. It's really...the relatives are far away, and I'm afraid there will be disagreements."

"This is a problem with the blood of the Lian family." Jiang Yanlan frowned, feeling extremely uncomfortable, "Most of the male heirs of the Lian family are weak, and those who are healthy are very easy to die for some reason, and most of them... have no heirs."

Lian Yinlian nodded, he could tell just by looking at his father, other emperors had less than a dozen or twenty children, and more than thirty or fifty, his children could be counted with one hand.

"What about the daughter?" Lian Yinlian asked, "Is the daughter also in poor health?"

Jiang Yanlan shook her head: "I heard that there is nothing wrong with girls, but there are few female heirs in the family, and your father only has one daughter, who is your elder sister."

"Could it be a genetic disease?" Lian Yinlian hesitated, "A disease that is passed on from male to female?"

Nie Linfeng frowned when he heard the words: "Have you seen the imperial doctor?"

Jiang Yanlan nodded: "Of course I have seen it, but... it's not just that simple, most male heirs also have a short lifespan, so your father suspected that it might be a curse. Since your emperor's brother passed away, he began to check these things, but he kept checking. Without a clue, I wanted to go to Penglai for help, but when I found it, the island was gone, and even the national teacher could not be found."

Hearing that life is short, Nie Linfeng is not calm: "The people of Penglai Island know how to solve it? Doesn't the national teacher know?"

Jiang Yanlan shook her head: "Everyone has their own strengths, but Penglai Island is full of capable people and strangers. The national teacher doesn't know about it, so naturally they know about it. It's a pity...your father didn't come to Penglai Island again in the end."

"Then I'll send someone to look for it." Nie Linfeng said, "By the way, let someone look for the national teacher. He must know where Penglai Island is."

"In that case, isn't there a junior in your family who says he is Shunzi?" Lian Yinlian said, "Maybe he also knows."

Nie Linfeng was taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized: "I'll ask."

"Hey wait." Lian Yinlian called him to stop, pointing to the direction of the desk, "Bring the book, I'll go there with you."

Jiang Yanlan asked, "What book?"

"I found it before." Lian Yinlian briefly told Jiang Yanlan about the secret room, got up and took the book and showed it to her.

Jiang Yanlan took it in her hand and turned it over roughly, and said with a smile: "This is not Penglai language, it's Wuge."

"Wu Ge?" Nie Linfeng also took a look, and quickly denied, "It's kind of like it, but it's not."

Jiang Yanlan smiled and said: "This is an old saying of Wuge, not many people know it now. I also had contact with the Queen of Wuge for a few days before. I read her writing, so I recognize a few." She paused and continued. , "Cong Buqi's biological mother grew up beside Queen Wuge, maybe he can understand it."

"Follow the queen?"

Nie Linfeng explained: "Cong Buqi's biological mother is the queen's personal maid. After his biological mother left, he was raised with the queen. He is barely half a legitimate son, otherwise he would not be sent to Dayi."

"Then I'll go to Cong Buqi, and you go to the boss in your house, so hurry up." Lian Yinlian took the book and ran away after finishing speaking.

He came late today, Cong Buqi had already woken up when he entered the room, made a plate of dumplings to eat there, and was taken aback when he saw Lian Yinlian: "Are you really alive?"

"That's right." Lian Yinlian walked in with a book, sat down beside Cong Buqi, and glanced at the dumplings on his plate, "What stuffing?"

"Pork and cabbage." Cong Buqi said, getting up to get him the bowl and chopsticks, and when he came back, he found that Lian Yinlian had already made a dipping sauce and ate it.

"You are delicious, hot and sour, I haven't eaten it before." Lian Yinlian wanted to reach out his hand again, but Cong Buqi stuffed his chopsticks, and immediately put several dumplings into the bowl.

"It's Wu Ge's. I saw someone selling spices yesterday, so I made it."

"You are quite versatile." Lian Yin said with a smile, "Then can you understand Wuge's ancient sayings?"

Cong Buqi paused, and couldn't help laughing: "Are you asking too bluntly?"

"I didn't intend to beat around the bush." ​​Lian Yinlian bit his chopsticks and looked at Cong Buqi innocently, "I have a book here, the queen mother said it was an old saying of Wuge, you might understand it."

Cong Buqi didn't speak, but stretched out his hand directly.

Lian Yinlian handed the book to Cong Buqi, sat next to him and ate dumplings, watching Cong Buqi flip through pages quickly, a little curious: "Are you reading so fast?"

"No, there are not many words that can be used in ancient Chinese. Sometimes it takes a lot of words to express a meaning, which is very long."

"Understood, it's the same as pinyin."

"What sound?"

"No." Lian Yinlian shrugged and continued eating his dumplings.

After a while, Cong Buqi said: "The above is about the Xuanniao clan on Penglai Island, how it was born and how it entered the world. It is said that the Xuanniao clan went to entrust the destiny to pacify the Central Plains, in order to restore the world. A Taiping, a mysterious bird of destiny, descended into life, is talking about your ancestors."

Lian Yinlian was a little surprised: "The ancestor of the Lian family is from Penglai?"

"Penglai..." Cong Buqi lowered his eyes, "I remember that your national teacher is from Penglai, right?"

"Yeah, you know that too?"

"Who doesn't know about the Great Yi." Cong Buqi laughed, "It is said that the Yi Kingdom is the destiny of heaven, so the immortals in Penglai agreed to help, but... is it really okay for you to just show it to me?"

"Then why do you have to go to Wuge to find someone to watch it?" Lian Yinlian shrugged nonchalantly, "Besides, you can't do anything after watching it."

Cong Buqi was happy again: "Then I helped you, and you didn't show anything?"

Lian Yinlian thought for a while, took out a piece of silver from his purse and threw it to Cong Buqi: "Take it and spend it."

Cong Buqi: "..."

"You've helped me, why don't you share some of this sauce with me?" Lian Yinlian ate several dumplings in one go, and he was still a little bit unsatisfied, but this is Cong's never-abandoned breakfast, so he would be embarrassed if he ate too much of.

Cong Buqi was speechless, but facing Lian Yinlian's loving and expectant gaze, he couldn't say a word, so he had to resign himself to his fate and get up and leave, after a while he already had a jar in his hands.

"Take it all." Cong Buqi said, "I really like to send an imperial chef over, remember to share with me when I cook."

"Just teach me like this, isn't this your secret recipe?"

"Forget it." Cong Buqi said, "My concubine mother taught it. The queen likes hot and sour, so she specially studied it."

"It sounds like your concubine mother and the queen have a very good relationship." Lian Yinlian said for a while, and suddenly felt that it seemed inappropriate to ask this, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, you just thought I was farting alright."

Cong Buqi twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, but he didn't smile, and replied: "Very well, otherwise I wouldn't let my mother and concubine serve the king when she was pregnant, but what's the use of it, I really envy you. "

What he said was a bit out of line, even Yin Lian didn't understand it for a while, and just looked at him suspiciously.

Cong Buqi didn't explain, but got up and went back to the house to get out the wine. There were still two glasses in his hand, each of them poured a glass, and asked, "Didn't you say before that you want to go back to your place?"

Lian Yinlian took a sip from the wine glass, it was a bit spicy, and then put it down: "Go back, it doesn't belong to me, so I'm back again."

"And now, have you found your place?"

When Lian Yinlian heard this, the first thing that came to mind was Nie Linfeng's face, she blushed and nodded.

Cong Buqi saw him so happy: "Then you are very lucky."

"Luck?" Lian Yinlian looked at Cong Buqi, who was still smiling, but always felt a little lonely.

He hadn't known Cong Buqi for a long time, and he had a very strange impression of this man, capable but not showing it, always with a casual look, as if it wasn't surprising that he would suddenly sleep on the street at any time, but in Sometimes he will suddenly show the expression of Yu now, not sad, but helpless, and even hopelessly lonely.

It's like looking at something.

"Have you... have you ever gone back to Wuge?"

Cong Buqi paused when he heard the words, then smiled at Lian Yinlian: "Without your permission, how could I go back."

Lian Yinlian said, "You went back, didn't you? But you came back again." Lian Yinlian lowered his eyelids, looked at the wine in the glass, "That's why you say I'm lucky."

When he said this, he suddenly understood.

Cong Buqi went back to Wuge, maybe he met something there, and found that Wuge didn't welcome him at all, so he came back again.

But... Dayi is not his home either.

That's why Cong Buqi envies him, at least he has a place to belong to, but Cong Buqi has nothing, be it Wuge or Dayi, Cong Buqi is a four-faced character, and it's superfluous everywhere.

Lian Yinlian knew what kind of feeling that was.

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me." Lian Yin said, "We are friends, and I will help you."

Cong Buqi smiled lightly: "One day when your national teacher comes back, let him come to see me, and I will thank you."

Lian Yinlian was surprised: "What are you looking for from the national teacher?"

Cong Buqi didn't answer, just smiled and drank a glass of wine: "Otherwise, give me another jar of golden wind and jade dew."

"Okay." Lian Yinlian responded readily, left Cong Buqi's mansion, and went to the General's Mansion.

At that time Nie Linfeng was talking to the guests, Lian Yinlian was a little curious about what they were talking about, so he didn't let anyone tell him, and walked lightly to the door, when he heard "Have you ever done anything with him" from inside the room.

He was so frightened that he slipped his hand, didn't hold the door, and knocked his head directly on the door, making a light "bang".

"Who?" came the voice of an old man, the one who just asked that sentence.

Lian Yinlian was a little embarrassed, and just about to enter the house to declare his identity, when Nie Linfeng sighed helplessly and called out, "Your Majesty."

He just remembered that Nie Linfeng's ears were very sharp. He came over so lightly just now, he guessed that Nie Linfeng already knew, but he didn't want to expose him, but he didn't expect him to be exposed.

Even Yin Lian didn't pretend any more, just pushed the door open and walked in, walked up to the two of them, glanced at the old man, and said, "What strange question did you ask him?"

Jiang Baisheng didn't say anything when he saw him, he just laughed.

Lian Yinlian was a little confident at first, but his face became hot after being laughed at, and his attitude softened. He pulled Nie Linfeng's sleeves and signaled him not to talk nonsense with his eyes.

However, Nie Linfeng nodded, but looked at the old man, and asked, "So what happened?"

Lian Yinlian's face became even redder: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"You can't hide your illness and avoid your doctor." Nie Linfeng said, pulling Lian Yinlian to sit on his lap, and patting him on the back like a child, "Mr. Jiang said, your family..."

"It's from Penglai, and Cong Buqi said it." Lian Yin said, "What are you talking about... the mysterious bird of destiny, born and born easily."

Jiang Baisheng nodded: "Yes, your family is indeed a Xuanniao." He looked at Nie Linfeng and asked, "Didn't you notice any difference in his body when you were doing it?"

Nie Linfeng was a little confused when he heard the words, should he be aware of it?If he didn't notice, his Nian Nian wouldn't be angry, right?

Lian Yinlian was so ashamed that he quickly covered Nie Linfeng's mouth and said half-threateningly: "Don't say it!"

Nie Linfeng nodded and looked at Lian Yinlian innocently.

Jiang Baisheng was made a little strange by them: "This is not what you want to ask yourself, or is there something unspeakable?" He paused for a while, and suddenly had a weird idea, he looked at Nie Linfeng, "You won't Is it the one below?"

Lian Yinlian was dumbfounded, isn't the direction of this matter too strange?

This time he was slapping Jiang Baisheng, and he said angrily, "Can't you?"

Nie Linfeng also laughed when he heard the words, and lightly stroked Lian Yinlian's back with his hand: "It depends." As he spoke, he clung to Lian Yinlian's ear again, and whispered, "Nian Nian is willing to come by himself, and I don't mind." ..."

"Get lost." Lian Yinlian slapped him, and ignored him.

Jiang Baisheng was amused: "You two children, old man, I've lived for so many years, I haven't seen anything, and besides, I'm a doctor, what can't I say?"

Lian Yinlian still blushed and did not speak, but her attitude softened obviously.

Nie Linfeng then said: "It's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's just... I haven't met anyone else, so it's hard to compare."

Jiang Baisheng nodded and said with a smile, "Just to ask, people of the Xuanniao family have different bodies from ordinary people." As he spoke, he looked at Lian Yinlian, his eyes half-closed, as if he was thinking about something, "The Xuanniao family The number of offspring is indeed rare, generally there are only two to four in a generation, and not many can live to adulthood."

"But I heard the queen mother said that most men live short lives."

Jiang Baisheng smiled and waved his hands: "The Xuanniao family is blessed, so how can they have a short lifespan? To be precise, it is the Lian family as a branch. Not all children have inherited the blood of the Xuanniao family."

Nie Linfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "So Nian Nian has inherited the bloodline, and has been living a very healthy life, and will not be short-lived?"

Jiang Baisheng nodded again, his gaze kept on sizing up Lian Yinlian, making Lian Yinlian a little nervous: "Why do you always look at me like that?"

"Your Majesty, the Xuanniao family has a characteristic. If you really inherit it, it will be easy to identify."

"what?"

Jiang Baisheng didn't answer, but said, "You will come back in half a month."

Lian Yinlian was surprised: "Why?"

Jiang Baisheng didn't answer, but got up and left.

Even Yinlian was confused by what he said, but Nie Linfeng was also confused.

After asking around today, they also knew who the ancestors of the Lian family were. Although this is enough for Nie Linfeng, he doesn't care about it. He only worries about his thoughts. Telling others now has no effect, so he doesn't worry about it. up.

"By the way, I still want to go to Shunzi's house."

Nie Linfeng still hasn't gotten used to Lian Yinlian calling Ning Changqing, so he thought for a while before asking, "National teacher? What are you doing there?"

"I'm a little worried about him, and he hasn't shown up since I came back." Lian Yinlian curled his lips as he spoke, still a little unhappy that Ning Changqing cheated on him, "I'll go and see if he's still alive. "

"But... he himself said that Yunyou has gone, so he shouldn't be in the mansion, right?"

"Go and see."

Lian Yinlian was about to get up as he spoke, but was stopped by Nie Linfeng: "Eat first, don't be hungry."

"No, I was at Cong Buqi just now..." He said for a while, and after thinking about it, Nie Linfeng didn't eat it, so he changed his words, "Then can I have dumplings? I just asked Cong Buqi for it." The altar sauce is delicious."

"Why are you so greedy..." Nie Linfeng was a little helpless, but he still agreed and ordered people to prepare it. Lian Yinlian took advantage of this time to dig out the sauce and spread it in a bowl. The sour smell made him drool. saliva.

Nie Linfeng was also nearby, frowning: "Why don't I remember you have such a strong taste."

"I just don't eat much, but this one is really delicious, you'll know in a while."

He said that it didn't take long before someone brought up the dumplings, not many, and he reckoned that they should be steamed first and then cooked slowly.

Lian Yinlian immediately stuffed one dipping sauce into his mouth, and dipped another one for Nie Linfeng: "Try it."

Nie Linfeng ate it hesitantly, the hot and sour spread on the tip of his tongue, it was delicious, but it really didn't look like something Lian Yinlian would eat.

It was probably because of the previous events that caused him a psychological shadow, and he suddenly became a little worried: "Nian Nian, are you okay?"

"What can I do?" Lian Yinlian was a little strange.

Nie Linfeng pursed his lips and thought for a while, then said, "Would you like something sweet after dinner? The cook has recently researched a new kind of pastry."

"Eat!" Lian Yinlian nodded immediately, "But after eating this, won't you miss the sweetness?"

Nie Linfeng's expression softened slightly: "No."

"Then eat, and take some to Shunzi."

"Okay." Nie Linfeng lowered his eyes and ate another dumpling.

Lian Yinlian promised not to leave, he should give Lian Yinlian more trust, Lian Yinlian has been away for several years, it is normal for some things to change, there is no need to be surprised.

After dinner, the two went to the National Teacher's Mansion, but no one answered when they called the door, so Nie Linfeng simply took Lian Yinlian over the wall and went in.

As soon as they entered the hospital, both of them were stunned.

The yard was overgrown with weeds and looked a little desolate, as if no one had been here for a long time.

Nie Linfeng frowned: "Even if he goes out, there should be servants in the mansion. How could it be so deserted?"

"Maybe he never thought of coming back again?" Even Yinlian frowned as he spoke, they all knew that the cloud tour Ning Changqing said was an excuse, the real reason was to change Lian Yinlian's soul .

He remembered that Ning Changqing said before that he used the forbidden technique. Since it was a forbidden technique, there should be a price to pay. Obviously Ning Changqing also knew this, so he sent everyone away. I feel that this trip may return in vain.

Nie Linfeng obviously thought so too, and asked, "Are you still looking for it?"

"Looking for it." Lian Yinlian nodded, "I'm here."

He said that he and Nie Linfeng began to search from room to room, and after finding it, even Yinlian almost decided that he couldn't find it. When he was about to call Nie Linfeng back, he suddenly heard him call: "Nian Nian, come here."

Lian Yinlian's eyes lit up, and he quickly ran over: "Did you find it?"

"Probably." Nie Linfeng stood in a corner of the backyard. There was a big peach tree planted there, but it seemed to be withered and bare, and under the tree was the Ning Changqing they were looking for.

He turned into a bird again, and lay there under the tree, motionless, his golden feathers tarnished, and he looked dead.

Lian Yinlian was startled, and quickly squatted down to pick up the bird in his hand, heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that it was still warm, and called him in a low voice: "Shunzi, are you okay?"

When Ning Changqing heard this address, he immediately knew who it was, opened his eyes with difficulty, and said with a smile: "Why did you come here? What's wrong with you..."

Before he finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, he didn't know whether he was dead or asleep, and even Yin Lian's face turned pale with fright: "The imperial doctor... can cure birds?"

The author has something to say: Imperial Physician: What kind of bird?
