Chapter 788 Someone else “also” became a concubine?
Nan Yan said softly, "Grandmother, I am pregnant. I am carrying the Emperor's child. The birth is in a few months."
"real?"
Tong Yuhua said in surprise: "When did you get married?"
“…”
Nan Yan sighed in her heart.
In fact, Tong Yuhua had seen that she was pregnant more than once and came to see her with her big belly, but after a while, she forgot about it and she had to explain it to her again.
This time, she even forgot that she had married the emperor and became a concubine.
Nan Yan said patiently: "Half a year ago, half a year ago, she entered the palace and became a concubine."
"Noble Concubine...?"
When Tong Yuhua heard these two words, she seemed a little confused, but also seemed to remember something.
"Noble Concubine?"
"Yes, grandmother, your granddaughter is now a concubine."
“…”
Tong Yuhua was stunned for a long time, then suddenly looked up at her: "Why are you also a concubine?"
“…”
Nan Yan was stunned by what she said.
also?
Could it be that she was hinting that someone else had also become a concubine?
However, since the founding of the country, there has only been one imperial concubine besides herself.
That is the Qin family’s Concubine Qin Xixi.
Grandmother knows her too?
Nan Yan hurried over and whispered, "Grandma, do you know Concubine Qin, Qin Xixi?"
When Tong Yuhua heard the words "Concubine Qin", the expression on her face became more nervous.
She reached out and covered Nan Yan's mouth.
He lowered his voice and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
“…”
"He'll be beheaded!"
“…”
Nan Yan covered her mouth with her hand and looked at her with wide eyes.
The last time she was so nervous was because Nan Yan mentioned Princess Tana.
Why did these two women make Tong Yuhua so nervous? Why did mentioning them seem to bring about a fatal disaster?
What happened back then?
Nan Yan thought for a moment, then reached out and gently took Tong Yuhua's hand away from her mouth. She said, "Grandmother, are Princess Tana and Concubine Qin related?"
Upon hearing this question, Tong Yuhua's eyes seemed confused again.
She murmured, "They? What's the relationship between the two of them?"
Nan Yan's brows were furrowed.
At this time, Tong Yuhua's mind was obviously a little confused. The imperial physician who had examined her and packed up the medicine box came over and said softly, "Your Highness, the old lady is old. She has been tired from the previous journey and the cold weather. She can't bear it anymore. We can't let her work any harder."
“…”
"I just prescribed her some cold medicine. She needs to rest now."
In other words, he was telling himself not to disturb Tong Yuhua's rest.
Nan Yan nodded: "Okay, I understand."
"I'll take my leave."
The imperial physician retreated.
Nan Yan helped Tong Yuhua, who was obviously confused, to lie down, listened to her mumbling something, and pulled the quilt up to cover her.
Looking at the old man's aged appearance, I couldn't help but feel a little heavy in my heart.
She was about to leave, but as soon as she stood up, her wrist was grabbed.
When she looked down, Tong Yuhua suddenly opened her eyes again, grabbed her wrist, and showed an expression of wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Nan Yan sensed what she was about to say, so she leaned over and said, "Grandma, what's wrong?"
Tong Yuhua looked at her for a while, then suddenly lowered her voice and said, "You, are you serving the emperor?"
"Yes, my granddaughter is now a concubine, serving the emperor."
"……oh."
"What's wrong?"
"When serving the Emperor, you must be careful."
“…”
"Don't be like Boyan and end up with nowhere to stay."
“……!”
Nan Yan's heart trembled suddenly: "Uncle?"
Until now, she is no longer sure that Si Boyan is her uncle, because she is still not sure whether Si Boyan is her father.
However, all the signs made her unable to help but make such a guess.
Si Boyan, most likely, gave birth to me together with Princess Tana.
And just now, Tong Yuhua actually told her that Si Boyan might not have done something well while serving the emperor, which made her have nowhere to stay.
So, is that why he disappeared for decades?
Nan Yan wanted to ask more questions, but at this time, Tong Yuhua was already tired, his eyelids drooped heavily, and he lay on the bed and fell asleep.
“…”
Nan Yan looked down at her, somewhat confused.
After a long time, he sighed.
He tucked the quilt tighter around her, then stood up and left her room.
Just after taking Ran Xiaoyu out for a while, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of him, as if waiting for him, with a familiar smile on his face.
It's Arslan.
Why is he there?
Nan Yan was already having a headache thinking about what her grandmother had just said, and when she saw him, her headache got even worse.
Ran Xiaoyu, almost instinctively, stood in front of Nan Yan.
"My lady, be careful of him!"
At this time, Arslan slowly walked over: "Cousin..."
Nan Yan's face darkened. "Prince Nanli, you should know exactly how you should address me."
Arslan looked at her for a while, then smiled and said, "Your Highness."
Nan Yan then said, "What's the matter, King Nanli?"
"Nothing, I just heard that the old lady seemed to be in poor health, so I wanted to come and see her."
"Her poor health is also due to you. Don't come here and pretend to be kind."
“…”
"She might feel more comfortable if she can't see you."
Arslan looked at her for a moment, then smiled and said, "Your Highness, there's no need to be so hostile towards me. It's true that I was wrong to abduct the old lady last time, but isn't it a good thing that I allowed Your Highness to find out about her own life?"
“…”
“In this world, everyone wants to understand who they are.”
Nan Yan glanced at him and said nothing.
Although their intentions were not very good, they did help me.
However, the thought that I still haven't figured out who my father is is enough to give me a headache.
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "My mother—Princess Tana—is she alive or dead now? Who gave birth to me? Don't you know anything about it?"
Arslan shook his head: "It's been so many years since this happened."
“…”
"Plus, my grandfather was angry and didn't allow anyone to mention that incident."
“…”
“Not many people know about this now.”
Nan Yan frowned: "No clue at all?"
Arslan said: "There are only two clues."
Nan Yan asked hurriedly: "What are those two clues?"
