Yan Mu was stunned by this news.
"The eldest prince's side concubine..." Yan Mu carefully recalled the side concubine's information in his mind.
As a result, no matter what she thought, there was zero news about the side concubine.
In other words, this side concubine is also a derivative product of the world.
"But, didn't your mother die a long time ago?" Yan Mu couldn't help asking.
"I was given to Zhang Liehu's family when I was five years old. My mother only left me a string of beads. She came to visit me occasionally, but later..." Yu Yuan paused, and said, "Later, she never saw me again. pass me."
"So, Zhang Liehu told you that your mother passed away?" Yan Mu was speechless.
"En." Yu Yuan nodded, feeling more and more headache.
"But isn't Zhang Orion your uncle? Then his wife is your aunt. Have you met your aunt?" Yan Mu asked.
"Yes, I have." Yu Yuan said: "But when I was a child, I always heard my aunt and Zhang Orion quarreling. After giving birth, my aunt once said that she shouldn't stay in the mountains. Zhang Orion bought her by force. Then Zhang Orion I just started... Later, my aunt died of depression." Yu Yuan sighed.
My aunt beat and scolded him, so Yu Yuan didn't feel too sad about his aunt's death.
He is naturally indifferent, and he didn't realize how disgusting Zhang Orion's behavior was until he met Yan Mu.
Yu Yuan claimed that he was not a good person, and he also had a lot of blood on his hands.
Yu Yuan has done all those glorious and dishonorable things.
But Yu Yuan would never do those things to Yan Mu, this is the principle of a man.
And Yan Mu is his only bottom line.
"My God." Yan Mu was also shocked after hearing Yu Yuan's words, "I thought Zhang Liehu liked his wife so much, but I didn't expect it to be like this."
Yan Mu thought of the limitations of this era, and suddenly felt a little melancholy.
She is not worried about Yu Yuan doing something to her, she still has confidence in Yu Yuan.
But in this era where three wives and four concubines are common, the future Yu Yuan will be a powerful prime minister, and there must be many crazy bees and butterflies around him.
Yan Mu suddenly felt unconfident about herself.
In fact, she wouldn't be like this before, but since she realized her feelings for Yu Yuan, plus she and Yu Yuan are people from different time and space.
Stacked in twos, Yan Mu loses confidence.
Yu Yuan turned his head, seeing Yan Mu's expression was uneasy, he asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"No, nothing." Yan Mu quickly shook his head to hide his embarrassment: "Have you found your bead string?"
"No." Yu Yuan sighed: "Let's talk about it later."
If his mother really didn't die, she just left him behind and became the eldest prince's side concubine after feigning death...
Yu Yuan felt that even if he really found the bead string, he would die of shock after seeing it.
Yu Yuan got up to clear the table after eating, while Yan Mu watched quietly from the side.
Yu Yuan washed the dishes and sat on the rattan chair with Yan Mu in his arms.
The warm sunshine shone on the two of them, making this moment so precious and beautiful.
Yan Mu's whole body was nestled in Yu Yuan's arms, and Yu Yuan buried his head in Yan Mu's neck.
"Amu." Yu Yuan said suddenly.
"Huh?" Yan Mu was drowsy from the sun.
"You will always be with me, right?" Yu Yuan said.
"..." Yan Mu was silent.
"... Amu?" Yu Yuan tightened his grip on Yan Mu's arm.
"... Hmm." Yan Mu said softly.
Until the fate's decision comes, she will always be with Yu Yuan.
She will watch her boy climb to the pinnacle of power, trample down all those who have hurt him.
Yu Yuan was born to be dazzling.
*******************
The weather is getting colder and colder, and the dead leaves fall to the ground, forming a thick blanket that rustles when stepped on.
The winter plums in the yard also condensed bright yellow buds, Yan Mu picked some and soaked them in water to drink.
Even though he could rely on Yu Yuan's kiss to continue his life from time to time, Yan Mu's body was still extremely afraid of the cold.
Even though winter has just entered, Yan Mu is already wrapped in thick fox fur, which at first glance looks like glutinous rice dumpling dipped in sugar.
Her hands and feet were cold, and there were four charcoal basins around her.
Yan Mu covered the stove with his left hand, and held a cup of tea with his right.
The current situation in the court is not very good.
The old emperor's health was getting worse and worse. Although the first prince himself was under house arrest in the mansion, his subordinates were still ready to move, and would clash with Chu Cong's troops from time to time.
Yu Yuan also became more and more busy.
Gradually, Yan Mu also heard a lot of rumors about Yu Yuan.
Some said Yu Yuan was cold-blooded and ruthless, while others directly called Yu Yuan Chu Cong's son of a bitch.
In short, there are many bad words.
Some guards in the shop gradually looked at her and Yu Yuan with strange eyes.
But Yan Muquan pretended not to see it, and he and Yu Yuan were still very affectionate.
Over time, other people in the store also let go of this matter.
Today, Yu Yuan had a rare day off and was sitting by the side rubbing her hands at the moment.
"Is it still cold?" Yu Yuan raised his head, his eyes were full of concern.
"Not cold." Yan Mu smiled.
Yu Yuan stuffed Yan Mu's hands into his cuffs, and said, "I'm going out for a while this afternoon."
"Where are you going?" Yan Mu asked casually, "I want to go too."
In this era, the winter is very cold. A few days ago, a heavy snow fell for three full days.
Everyone in the shop knew that Yan Mu was weak, so they had a tacit understanding not to let Yan Mu go out.
Yan Mu had no choice but to take advantage of this time to finish writing the book "Anti-Food". It will be put on the shelves in the next few days to see the sales.
Although she felt that the cuteness of a story was right, it shouldn't be too bad.
But after all, this era is prejudiced against eunuchs, and it is not as tolerant as modern times.
So Yan Mu's heart was still a little beating.
If this "Food" is not selling well after it hits the shelves and there is still a lot of criticism, then she will have no choice but to start a new one.
Yan Mu has been worrying about this for the past few days, so she is under a lot of psychological pressure.
She really wanted to get out and about.
"Actually, someone sent me a letter asking me to meet at Baoyue Tower this afternoon." Yu Yuan knew Yan Mu's troubles, so he reached out and gently patted Yan Mu's head.
Yan Mu immediately jumped up: "Male and female? Are you and her the only ones going?"
Seeing Yan Mu's appearance, Yu Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Female, it's just me and her." Yu Yuan said honestly.
"Take me, take me!" Yan Mu immediately became alert.
Yu Yuan's small appearance is so pretty, and he is Chu Cong's important right-hand man, no matter how you look at it, he can be regarded as a "golden tortoise son-in-law".
Could it be one of Yu Yuan's secret lovers...
The more Yan Mu thought about it, the more unhappy he became.
Until Yu Yuan knocked a chestnut on her head.
"What are you thinking?" Yu Yuan looked helpless.
"I don't care, just take me there." Yan Mu began to mess around.
"Okay, okay." Yu Yuan has always had nothing to do with Yan Mu.
He watched Yan Mu walking to the closet three times with a bit of irony, then opened the door and rummaged inside.
"What are you doing?" Yu Yuan asked.
"I want to find a more beautiful dress to wear, it won't look uglier than that woman's." Yan Mu said angrily.
"Actually, Amu doesn't need to do this." Yu Yuan finally couldn't help laughing.
Yan Mu's appearance successfully dispelled the haze in Yu Yuan's heart.
Although he has never been in a relationship, he knows that Yan Mu is jealous from the interaction between Qi Er and Huaping.
The feeling of being cared about is so sweet and warm.
Yu Yuan only felt a slight heat in his heart.
"Are you still laughing?" Yan Mu's eyes widened: "Are you so happy that a woman asked you out to meet?"
Yan Mu clutched his chest, looking sad as if Xizi was holding his heart.
"Not another woman."
Yu Yuan suppressed his smile, and handed Yan Mu an envelope, which contained a string of beads.
This bead string is exactly the one that Yu Yuan lost before.
"I think it should be the eldest prince's side concubine." As soon as he mentioned this, Yu Yuan's face was stained with a trace of gloom.
"Amu, come with me." Yu Yuan said sincerely.
"Why, why?" Yan Mu realized that he had overreacted just now, and felt a little embarrassed.
She put down her clothes, and moved to Yu Yuan's side in small steps.
"If it were me in the past, I would definitely go to the appointment alone." Yu Yuan pulled Yan Mu to his side: "But now I don't want to."
"Amu, if that person is really my mother, I will be very sad."
Yu Yuan's voice fell into Yan Mu's ears as softly as the breeze passing through the field.
"Amu, I will be sad too." Yu Yuan sighed.
Humans eat whole grains, how can they precisely restrain every trace of their emotions
Yan Mu's heart is not feeling well.
What would happen to Yu Yuan if he really left
Yan Mu suddenly felt a little scared.
So, under Yu Yuan's surprised gaze, Yan Mu lowered her head and gently kissed his lips.
Although I don't know what the future holds.
But at this moment, I don't want to see you look sad.
*******************
Baoyue Building is just opposite the bookstore, Yan Mu and Yu Yuan followed the instructions in the letter and came to an elegant room.
Yu Yuan stood still at the door of the cubicle, his outstretched hand trembling slightly.
Yan Mu encouraged Yu Yuan's other hand.
After a long time, Yu Yuan took a deep breath, and then pushed open the door.
The room is decorated elegantly, and there is a bouquet of plum blossoms on the table.
The room was filled with the fragrance of plum blossoms, and a woman in white stood with her back facing them.
Yu Yuan's lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't stop holding Yan Mu's hand.
"What should I call you?" Yu Yuan asked half sadly and half mockingly: "Side concubine? Or... mother."
The woman in white turned around slowly upon hearing the words.
Her complexion is fair and well-maintained.
In fact, just by looking at her face, she doesn't look like Yu Yuan.
But those dark eyes were very similar to Yu Yuan's, but her eyes were dull and dull; while Yu Yuan's eyes were dark, but there was a tenacity in them.
"After so many years, you still look nothing like me." The woman looked at Yu Yuan with complicated emotions in her eyes.
Yan Mu sensitively felt Yu Yuan's body tremble slightly.
Her intuition told her that this woman was going to say something bad, but before Yan Mu could stop her, the woman had already opened her mouth coolly.
"You really look like that bandit." The woman gritted her teeth quite a bit.
Almost instantly, Yan Mu saw Yu Yuan's eyes turned red.
"What are you looking for Yu Yuan today?" Yan Mu stood between the woman and Yu Yuan.
"It's really strange that you also have a lover." The woman mocked: "Does she know your dirty background? Does she know that you are the son of a bandit?"
"Don't say that about him." Yan Mu was anxious.
She felt that Yu Yuan's mother was a bit extreme, as if she had vented all her hatred for Yu Yuan's father on Yu Yuan.
"Why can't I talk about him?" The woman sneered, "It's because of this calamity that I have suffered so much, but this person is my son!"
"Yu Yuan is not a catastrophe! He is a treasure!!" Yan Mu said solemnly, "You don't want him, I want him."
The woman was taken aback, as if she didn't expect that someone would accept Yu Yuan sincerely.
"Although you are Yu Yuan's mother, you don't know Yu Yuan at all. What right do you have to call Yu Yuan a disaster!"
Yan Mu is very angry at the moment, she cannot allow others to slander her baby.
Yu Yuan is obviously so good.
But why even the biological mother...
Yan Mu felt sad.
"It's okay." Yu Yuan said in a hoarse voice, "She used to talk like this, and I've been used to it for a long time."
If it was before coming, there was still a trace of fantasy in Yu Yuan's heart.
After coming here, the only fantasy in Yu Yuan's heart was also shattered.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?" Yu Yuan's eye circles were still red, but his dark pupils were already filled with cold air.
The woman took a step back inexplicably.
This cold look... is exactly the same as that bandit.
She felt more and more disgusted.
But thinking of the purpose of this trip, she had no choice but to press those shameful memories back to the bottom of her heart.
"I want you to belong to the First Prince's camp." The woman said indifferently.
…
Yu Yuan suddenly smiled.
The woman was horrified by the laughter, but Yan Mu was more and more worried about Yu Yuan's mental state.
"Why do you think I will agree?" Yu Yuan's tone became colder.
A cold wind blows through the window, and the window makes a creaking sound.
Yu Yuan looked at the woman who should be called mother, and felt that his persistence for so many years was like a joke.
In order to keep the thought in his heart, he stayed in Qingshui Village, and was ostracized and insulted by the villagers.
In order to find out the whereabouts of the so-called "relics", he worked as a cow and a horse in Zhang Liehu's family. He suffered all kinds of torture, and there was no good meat on his body.
Later, he met Yan Mu, and finally grasped the sliver of happiness that belonged to him.
But the husband of this "mother" wanted to burn the innocent Yan Mu to death.
How painful Yan Mu must have been...
When Yu Yuan thought of Yan Mu's burnt appearance at that time, he felt a throbbing pain in his heart.
He didn't believe that the person in front of him didn't know about this matter.
But even so, this woman came here licking her face, and ordered him to do the head-off thing in a superior tone.
What is he in the mother's eyes
Is he really alone in the eyes of his mother
Yu Yuan's eyes became more and more gloomy.
The temperature in the wing room dropped extremely, and the cold woman shivered.
The woman pretended to be calm, and said: "Then I will recognize you as my son and record you under the name of the First Prince."
"You even found a new father for me?" Yu Yuan smiled.
Seeing Yu Yuan smile, the woman felt hopeful.
"The eldest prince is the eldest son, and the imperial concubine is favored. He is the most promising person to ascend the throne. He has no children. If you are recorded in his name, you will be the next prince..." the woman chattered.
Yu Yuan took out the string of beads silently.
He lowered his head, his facial features were soaked in the darkness, making it difficult for people to see his expression clearly.
Slap.
It was the sound of beads falling to the ground.
Then came the second, third...
Yu Yuan sneered, and just tore off the beads in front of the woman.
The expensive jade beads fell to the ground and rolled all over the ground.
Yu Yuan looked indifferently at the jade beads rolling to the ground, without any emotion in his eyes.
His body seemed to have a film that isolated him from the world, and it seemed that no one could break through that film and enter Yu Yuan's world.
"You..." The woman obviously didn't expect this development, and she was also stunned.
"Yu Yuan..." Yan Mu felt uncomfortable.
She hugged Yu Yuan's arm and shook it slightly.
Yu Yuan's expression moved slightly, and the ice and snow in his eyes melted a little.
That layer of isolated film broke in an instant, and Yan Mu felt the vivid Yu Yuan again.
Yu Yuan turned his head, and said to the woman, "You should know the reason why the eldest prince has no children."
Others don't know, but he is very clear about women's medical skills.
The woman trembled and was poked at an invisible corner of the center, which made her feel a little ashamed.
"I still have something to ask you." Yu Yuan said.
"Why should I tell you about this bastard!" the woman said angrily.
"If you don't tell me, I'll tell him about you giving medicine to the eldest prince." Yu Yuan's tone was calm, as if he was just discussing what to eat tonight.
"You..." The woman was extremely angry, but she didn't dare to refute.
She really didn't expect Yu Yuan to grow up so fast that she couldn't control it anymore.
When the queen bestowed the decree on Yi, she saw Yu Yuan.
Although she didn't want to admit it, the moment she saw Yu Yuan, the first emotion that came to her heart was actually fear.
It's not that she's afraid that the eldest prince will know that the eldest prince likes a man/wife and won't care about such trivial matters.
So, what was she afraid of at the time
Thinking about it now, he was probably afraid of Yu Yuan's tenacity.
A bastard who was squeezed out by others, came out of such a remote village by his own efforts.
He also became a celebrity in front of the second prince Li.
She knew about the second prince, who had been raised by the queen since he was a child, and had a very high vision.
Yu Yuan being able to be favored by the second prince shows that he has a certain ability.
But precisely because of this, she was even more afraid.
That kind of tenacity, that kind of perseverance, is exactly the same as that damn bandit!
She has excellent medical skills and is the daughter of her father's old age.
From childhood to adulthood, who didn't spoil her and follow her
He was taken captive by that damn bandit.
Obviously she can be drafted, and she doesn't need to be with the eldest prince.
The woman was angry and afraid.
She was afraid that if she didn't listen to Yu Yuan, Yu Yuan would really tell the eldest prince that she had taken the medicine.
"What do you want to ask?" The woman tried to calm down.
"What is my aunt's identity?" Yu Yuan asked.
"Auntie?" The woman felt a little funny, "She's just a maid, she doesn't deserve you to call her Auntie."
"That is to say..." Yu Yuan asked abruptly based on his childhood memories: "At that time you escaped after giving birth, not only sold your maid to Zhang Orion, but also forced me in there, right? "
"Or, you sold me to Zhang Orion too?" Yu Yuan stared straight into the woman's eyes, not letting go of her mood swings.
The woman didn't seem to expect that Yu Yuan would guess.
She opened her mouth a little helplessly, not knowing how to explain for a moment.
"Mother, so you wanted to get rid of me from the very beginning." Yu Yuan laughed at himself.
