Chapter 259: Family Tradition



Wei Zhan was a little hesitant. He was afraid that if he went to Qilin Temple, something might happen to Old Madam Wei on the way and he would not be able to accompany her.

Xie Zhixuan noticed Wei Zhan's hesitation and said, "Yun'er, go to Qilin Temple and bring Qingxuan over."

Zhao Yun nodded and went out.

Gu Jingyu hurriedly followed Zhao Yun and said, "Cousin, I'll go with you."

Zhao Yun responded, "Okay."

There are many people in the Wei family. Yun Xiangye looked at the sky outside and thought that Nuonuo should be returning from the academy.

Yun Xiangye also went back to Qingfeng Garden first.

As soon as I entered, I heard the laughter of Nuonuo and Gu Yan, father and daughter.

Yun Xiangye saw Gu Yan pick up Nuonuo and throw her upwards, and her heart tightened in fear. After Gu Yan hugged Nuonuo, Yun Xiangye frowned and looked at Gu Yan and said, "Don't throw Nuonuo like this anymore. What if something happens?"

Gu Yan chuckled and said, "I know what I'm doing and will continue."

Yun Xiangye took Nuonuo from Gu Yan's arms and said, "Nuonuo, you can't play like this anymore."

Little Nuonuo nodded obediently and said, "Nuonuo won't play like this anymore."

Yun Xiangye touched little Nuonuo's head and kissed the side of Nuonuo's face, "Mother knows that Nuonuo is the best."

Gu Yan looked at Yun Xiangye and asked, "How is my great-aunt?"

Yun Xiangye sighed and said, "I'm afraid it will be tonight, but I just learned something important. Do you know who the biological father of Taoist Qingxuan of Qilin Temple is?"

Gu Yan shook his head and asked, "Who?"

Yun Xiangye said, "That's your cousin Wei Zhan."

Gu Yan raised his eyebrows, full of shock, "Let's talk inside."

Yun Xiangye followed Gu Yan into the house and said, "Didn't you tell me last time that Qilin Temple was a place where fertility was truly effective, and that it was the Taoist nuns there who conceived children? Yan hadn't conceived for two years, so she asked a Taoist nun to bear a child for her. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant shortly after the Taoist nun became pregnant, but she was afraid it wasn't a son, so she waited until she was sure the Taoist nun was pregnant with a boy, and then she gave the seven-month-pregnant nun abortion pills."

Gu Yan frowned slightly and said, "Giving a woman seven months pregnant abortion pills, how is this any different from killing someone?"

Yun Xiangye said, "Fortunately, the government discovered the Qilin Temple and stopped these dirty things. Otherwise, these Taoist nuns would have suffered a lot. After the seven-month-old child was given an abortion drug, he was lucky enough to be born alive. Taoist nun Qingyue took him back to the temple and raised him."

Gu Yan said, "No wonder my father took me to Qilin Temple to play with Qingxuan when I was little. I guess he knew Qingxuan's identity?"

Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "Yes, my father-in-law knows, and His Majesty knows too. Only the Duke of Wei is unaware of this. If it weren't for Madam Wei's wish to leave a bloodline for the Duke of Wei before her death today, I'm sure neither His Majesty nor my father-in-law would have spoken of this."

Gu Yan said, "Yan Shi is now getting what she deserves. She hired someone to bear a child for her, but she ended up having an abortion in July. Now all her children have died young. Isn't this retribution?"

Yun Xiangye nodded and said, "That's right."

Late at night, Xie Zhixuan and Gu Lingcai rushed over from Wei's house.

Gu Yan also went to meet Xie Zhixuan and Gu Ling.

Seeing the dark-skinned Gu Yan in front of her, Xie Zhixuan asked with tears in her eyes, "Why are you so dark? You must have suffered a lot outside, right?"

Gu Yan smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have worried mother. I haven't suffered much outside. I just miss mother, Xiangye, Nuonuo, and grandmother. I've suffered a little more from missing them."

Xie Zhixuan smiled softly with tears in her eyes and said, "As long as you return safely, it's good."

Gu Ling didn't hear Gu Yan say that he missed him, so he frowned slightly and asked, "You don't miss me?"

Gu Yan said: "I thought you didn't want me to miss you."

Gu Ling sneered, "It took a year to defeat Wei Jian. Your mother has been worried about you day and night, and she's woken up from her dreams so many times. You're really incompetent."

"Gu Ling!" Xie Zhixuan stomped on Gu Ling fiercely. "How could Yan'er not be capable after returning victorious? It was you who said Wei Jian was truly capable and let him go, raising a tiger to cause trouble. How dare you criticize Yan'er?"

Seeing Xie Zhixuan was angry, Gu Ling quickly begged for mercy, "I was wrong. Yan'er is very capable."

Yun Xiangye saw the interaction between her parents-in-law and Gu Yan and smiled softly. No wonder Gu Yan admitted his mistakes so quickly sometimes. It turned out that it was due to his family tradition.

Gu Yan asked, "How is my great-aunt?"

Xie Zhixuan said, "I gave her the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill, which should keep her going for a while. Your Highness the Crown Prince and your sister went to the Taoist temple to find Qingxuan, but he hasn't come back yet. I just hope the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill can help your great-aunt survive for another day."

Gu Yan thought that if Zhao Yun went ahead, he would definitely be able to call Taoist Qingxuan down the mountain, so he went back to his room with Yun Xiangye to rest.

Inside the Qilin Temple.

When Zhao Yun and Gu Jingyu arrived at the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, it was already dusk. After arriving, they heard that Taoist Qingxuan had gone down the mountain today, so they waited in the temple.

By late at night, Gu Jingyu was feeling a little sleepy, but Taoist Qingxuan still hadn't returned.

As the sky darkened, Gu Jingyu was drinking tea to relieve her sleep when she heard a cute female voice coming from outside.

"Qingxuan, I really like the silk flowers you gave me today. Look, do I look pretty?"

"nice."

Gu Jingyu heard a familiar voice saying, "No one in Chang'an City knows where Fu Anran is. It turns out she's here."

"Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Jingyu have been waiting in the side room for a long time."

Qing Xuan heard what the little nun said and hurried into the room, "Your Highness, Princess."
