Why was Qin Hua's book in the palace? And why was Lan Sinian's signature on the book?
Qin Changqing's chest heaved violently, and he suddenly felt as if he was being drowned by the sea and was about to suffocate.
A faint pain came from his stomach, which made Qin Changqing calm down a little. He put the book aside with trembling hands, thought about it, and felt that it was not right. He quickly put the book and the box into the space button. He was in a state of anxiety and hurriedly knocked the book and the box to the ground. His hands were shaking so much that he couldn't hold them steadily.
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened. Qin Changqing finally calmed down, quickly packed up his things, and sat back in his chair.
"Has the Queen made up her mind?" The man who walked in was the same man as before.
Qin Changqing's mood at this moment was as messy as a ball of tangled yarn that had been trampled by a cat. His mind was filled with the faces of Qin Hua and Lan Sinian, which had completely different styles, flashing alternately. He had no intention of dealing with these messy people at all. If possible, he really wanted to find someone to beat up and vent all the emotions that were about to explode in his heart.
Seeing that Qin Changqing was still as silent as before, the man finally couldn't help himself this time. He walked over and pulled him up from the chair, tearing his gentleman's leather, and cursed: "You are so shameless! You have to go today even if you don't want to!"
The man cursed harshly and raised his hand to slap him in the face. Qin Changqing was too weak to struggle free and could only close his eyes and wait for the pain to hit him. Unexpectedly, it was the person next to him who screamed in pain. He opened his eyes in confusion, only to see a black pearl light disappear before his eyes. The hand of the person holding him, which had just been stretched out to slap him, was covered in blood and flesh.
Qin Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly. This must be the power of Lan Sinian's clone? It turns out it can really protect him when under strong attack!
The man failed to beat anyone and ended up hurting himself so badly. The look in his eyes when he looked at him changed, but the other party seemed to be in a hurry and didn't bother to study the abnormality on his body anymore. He dragged him out.
Qin Changqing finally regained some of his composure and calmed down. He suspected that these people had been patient with him because they couldn't leave immediately. Lan Sinian, upon learning of his disappearance, would have blocked traffic to buy time to find him. Now these people were desperate to take him away, perhaps because Lan Sinian had forced them to move him.
He could analyze all this, but he couldn't do anything about it. However, he believed in Lansnian...
Speaking of Lan Sinian, his mood became confused again.
How could Ahua be connected to him?
He couldn't help but think back to when he'd arrived in the Empire with such feelings, only to fall in love with Lan Sinian during their daily companionship. This only made him feel even more depressed. He felt like he'd betrayed Ah Hua. They'd known each other since they were ten, and had spent their most important and passionate teenage years together. They'd loved each other so deeply, even making vows to each other. That love seemed etched into his bones. He'd always believed he'd never forget this person, but how could he have fallen for someone else?
At the same time, he felt guilty towards Lan Sinian. He didn't dare to even think about Ahua in front of Lan Sinian. Lan Sinian's kindness to him was so pure and unconditional. How could he enjoy all the benefits he received and then compare him to someone else? How unfair would that be to Lan Sinian, who truly loved him?
During that time, he felt like he was being split into two people. One was still immersed in the past that was gradually fading away with Ah Hua, unwilling to wake up, while the other was gradually being strongly attracted to the passionate Lan Sinian...
In this situation, he didn't even dare to think of the two of them at the same time, so how could he have imagined that these two people would actually...
Is Lan Sinian the same as Ah Hua? Or is there another reason?
But doesn’t the fact that Lansnian left his name in Ahua’s book using the ancient imperial language say it all?
A sudden loud noise brought Qin Changqing back to his senses as he was immersed in his own world again. He raised his head and realized that they had moved while he was distracted.
"Evergreen!"
Before Qin Changqing could figure out where they were, he suddenly heard Lan Sinian's anxious voice. He quickly looked up and looked around for the source of the voice.
"Evergreen! I'm here!"
Lan Sinian's voice immediately rang in his ears, and before Qin Changqing could come to his senses, he was picked up by someone.
A powerful yet gentle force enveloped him at that moment, as if it could protect him from all harm. Qin Changqing instinctively felt a sense of security, and then he couldn't help but think of the time when he was with Ah Hua, and it seemed to be the same...
Ever since he lost his grandmother at the age of sixteen, he has been very afraid that the people around him will leave him again, so every time he sees Ahua, his uneasy heart seems to finally have a place to go.
Qin Changqing's mood suddenly became chaotic again. He never thought that these two people would be related???
He couldn't figure out whether he was angry or happy at this moment. Angry was definitely there, but as for being happy? Qin Changqing felt that anyone who knew that they had been kept in the dark and played with would definitely not be happy!
"Honey, are you feeling unwell?" Lan Sinian held the person in his arms, but the person didn't respond at all. He immediately became worried and shouted to Shao Ou beside him, "Where's the doctor?! Tell the doctor to come quickly!"
Qin Changqing was indeed feeling unwell. He had little strength in his body and was a little afraid that those people had injected him with something bad. When he heard him calling for a doctor, he did not stop them.
The doctor came over quickly. Qin Changqing calmly expressed his concerns and physical feelings, and let the doctor examine him. Only then did he have the mood to look around him.
Judging from the surrounding environment, they should still be in school. It seems that his previous guess was correct. Those people captured him but failed to take him out of the Imperial Star. It must be because of what Lan Sinian did after he learned the news.
Thinking of this, he looked up at Lan Sinian.
"Don't be afraid, honey. No one can hurt you." Lan Sinian had been holding him tightly in his arms since he saw him. Qin Changqing felt his arms tightening more than ever, and his blue eyes, staring at him, suppressed emotions. He felt a warmth on his forehead as the person holding him leaned down and kissed him, a very gentle kiss.
The doctor quickly finished examining him and, under Lan Sinian's anxious pressure, quickly said, "The Queen is fine. They probably just gave you a sniff of the drug that made you weak. It wasn't an injection, so the side effects aren't significant. However, the Queen seems frightened and emotionally unstable, which is causing the fetus to become restless. I suggest the Queen rest for a while and not think about anything. The child is now one with you, and your emotions will affect him."
Qin Changqing was a doctor himself, so he knew what he said was right. He took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "I understand. I'll pay attention. Thank you, doctor."
Lan Sinian, who was still holding him, seemed relieved, but his expression became even gloomier.
"Darling, shall I take you back to the palace to rest?" Lan Sinian asked gently, lowering his head. He was actually reluctant to let go of his dear, and he wanted to hold her in his arms wherever he went. What happened that day was too shocking for him, and he didn't dare to think about the consequences of Changqing being taken away. But the doctor was right, Changqing needed to rest well.
Qin Changqing had no objection and nodded, "Okay." He also needed to be quiet for a while and think carefully about the book.
He behaved more silently than usual. Lan Sinian thought he was really frightened this time, and he felt even more pity for him, and was furious with those who dared to have evil intentions towards the Queen.
Lan Sinian personally sent Qin Changqing back to the palace. Seeing that it was time for the eldest son at home to get out of school, he rushed to pick him up personally. On the way, he carefully reminded him to go back and spend time with his father.
"What's wrong with Dad? Is he feeling unwell?" Qin Xu didn't know that his father had been kidnapped.
"No, he is just in a bad mood. If you talk to him, he will feel better." In fact, Lan Sinian wanted to accompany his loved ones in person, but he also had to teach some people a lesson they would never forget, otherwise they would really think that he, the emperor, was a soft persimmon and even dared to touch his queen!
"Okay, I will." Qin Xu nodded obediently. At the end, he suddenly thought of something, looked at him cautiously, and asked, "Did you have a quarrel with Dad and make him angry?"
"What are you thinking about!" Lan Sinian smacked him on the forehead in frustration, saying unhappily, "I pamper him enough, how could I possibly make him angry?" He was so afraid of his own sweetheart melting in his mouth, so afraid of dropping her in his hands. How could he bear to quarrel with her, his darling? — His Majesty automatically ignored the fact that he deliberately teased his own queen into wanting to commit domestic violence every day.
Qin Xu rubbed the place where he was hit and thought to himself that that was true.
Lan Sinian sent the little guy back to the palace and left. He wanted to deal with those ignorant people as soon as possible and come back to comfort his surprised relatives, so he naturally had to speed up.
Qin Changqing was indeed in a bad mood at this moment. Although he didn't show anything on his face, the sensitive Qin Xu still felt it.
"Dad, are you really unhappy? What's wrong?" Qin Xu carefully approached him, grabbed his hand and asked worriedly.
Qin Changqing rubbed his head and said with a smile: "It's okay."
Qin Xu felt that he didn't look like he was fine. He thought for a while and asked quietly, "Did Dad make you angry?"
Qin Changqing wanted to shake his head, but then he thought, wasn't it this bastard who caused this? He glanced at the little guy and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
"Dad just sent me home and you guys didn't say anything." Qin Xu carefully pointed out the difference from before.
Qin Changqing was silent for a moment, but then he sighed softly. If Lan Sinian was really Ah Hua... then he was Xiao Xu's biological father. If Xiao Xu knew this, he would definitely be very happy.
He just sorted it out and felt that the only time Lan Sinian had time to go to Earth was during the eight-year coma that the princess had told him. And it was exactly eight years from the time Ahua appeared in his life to the time she left quietly.
But Lan Sinian seemed to have no memory of the incident at all. Had he forgotten? Or was he not Ah Hua at all?
However, the empire's technology is much more advanced than that of the Earth. He can get the answer immediately by comparing the DNA of Lan Sinian and Qin Xu.
The answer was too important to him, and he had to find it out no matter what the result was.
Qin Changqing took a deep breath, raised his hand and touched the little guy's head, and said, "Xiao Xu, I need your help with something."
"OK."
…
Although the doctor told Qin Changqing to have a good rest and not to think too much, Qin Changqing still took his son to the laboratory and took some of his blood. The rest was Lan Sinian's blood sample.
However, Qin Changqing didn't want Lan Sinian to know about this for the time being, so he needed to obtain his DNA sample without him knowing the truth. It wasn't for any other reason, but because he desperately wanted to understand what had happened. If Lan Sinian was Ah Hua, why did he leave without a single word? Why did Lan Sinian have no memory of what happened? If he wasn't Ah Hua... then what was his connection to Ah Hua?
Qin Changqing was by no means a sentimental person. He always discussed everything with Lan Sinian, which was the most important way for a couple to get along. But this time, he decided to keep it a secret. Lan Sinian would know nothing until he found out everything, simply because this matter was too important to him.
※
After Lan Sinian left the palace, he told Shaou a few names and then ordered them to be arrested in a deep voice.
Those names were almost all from the Lan family, both high and low. Perhaps they were certain that Lan Sinian was the only one the emperor could use. So when the imperial guards stormed into their homes, they sat there calmly, clamoring for an explanation from the emperor. However, the guards said nothing and simply took the people away by force!
The great nobles all got into trouble, and the imperial star was in an uproar. Everyone then realized that the emperor was serious this time.
Even more unbelievable was that after these noble clan leaders were captured, they were never released. As for the nobles behind them, they were severely suppressed in all aspects of their political careers and business ventures. It didn't take long for these nobles to disappear from the Imperial Star Region.
This incident later became known as the Imperial Heir Controversy, as it was after this incident that some overconfident individuals finally saw through Lan Sinian's tactics. Those who had been scheming to seize the heir's bloodline ceased their efforts, and for a time, no one dared to mention the matter again. This incident also made many people realize that the imperial family's claim to the throne, superior to the eight clans, was not without reason.
From then on, no one dared to easily anger the emperor, and they did not dare to offend the queen, whom he valued very much, for fear of following in the footsteps of those great nobles.
It was already very late when Lan Sinian returned to the palace.
He washed up, ate something quick, and went to the bedroom.
Qin Changqing had wanted to wait for him to come back, but he fell asleep because he was too sleepy. Lan Sinian saw that his already pale face was sunken in the dark quilt, making it look even paler. He felt so distressed that he climbed onto the bed quietly and pulled him into his arms.
Because he was worried that Changqing would be frightened during the day and have nightmares at night, Lan Sinian slept very lightly. He would often wake up to check if Changqing had nightmares or was feeling unwell or had a fever. He would not fall asleep until the next morning when he was sure that Changqing was fine.
In the morning, the emperor was awakened by a dream full of ambiguous pinkness.
When he woke up, he was surprised that the stimulation was still there. It was so comfortable that he couldn't help but hum through his nose. He quickly looked towards the source of the comfort, and saw his dear sitting diagonally next to him, with her hand on his thing, hehe, hehe, trying hard to pump the water...
Lan Sinian: “…”
