Crossing Over to Yamada Love
Chapter 410 The Course of Events
Mo Lan was startled and felt shy. She hugged Xue Lingfeng tightly, not wanting him to do anything more.
"Be good, relax." Xue Lingfeng whispered in Mo Lan's ear, trying to calm her down.
"No, don't..." Mo Lan murmured, wanting Xue Lingfeng to stop. She was afraid that someone would come and she would be so embarrassed.
Xue Lingfeng had endured for many days and finally saw his beloved wife. How could he give up so easily? He hugged Mo Lan and kissed her again.
"Lan'er, baby, don't you miss me?" Xue Lingfeng whispered in Mo Lan's ear. "Yes, I miss you so much," Mo Lan answered sincerely, her eyes glazed over, and her face flushed again. She couldn't control her body's reaction; after all, this guy kept teasing her.
Xue Lingfeng felt Mo Lan's moisture and desire. He slowly withdrew his hand and then sat in the bathtub.
When Xue Lingfeng removed his hand, Mo Lan felt a sense of emptiness. Before she could react, Xue Lingfeng pulled her over and made her sit between his legs.
Mo Lan almost cried out in surprise. She covered her mouth, leaned on Xue Lingfeng's shoulder, and without saying anything more, slowly began to move.
Just as Mo Lan reached her peak and collapsed onto Xue Lingfeng, she heard a knock at the door, accompanied by the sound of a child crying.
Mo Lan was startled and quickly stood up. She washed herself hastily and prepared to get dressed.
But having just gone through it three times, her legs were weak, and she almost fell to the ground.
Xue Lingfeng quickly reached out to support her, then carried Mo Lan out, handed her the clothes, and put on his own clothes.
After the two were dressed, Xue Lingfeng opened the door. Outside were Granny Bai and Xueyan, each holding one child in each arm, both of whom were crying.
Granny Bai bowed to Xue Linfeng and said, "Young master, the young master and young lady are hungry. This old servant couldn't coax them, so I had to bring them over. I hope you won't mind."
She knew that the young master and young lady were newlyweds after a long separation, and she didn't want to disturb them, but the child was hungry and she couldn't soothe him, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and come.
Xue Lingfeng nodded and stepped aside to let the two in. Granny Bai was alright, but Xueyan's cheeks were flushed. Master had just returned and it had taken him so long to open the door. He and Grandma must have been getting intimate. Would they have disturbed Master and Grandma's good time? Would Master blame them?
Mo Lan blushed as she took the baby. She had been so busy being affectionate with the baby's father that she had completely forgotten that the two little ones needed to be fed.
If one of them wouldn't eat, the other wouldn't, so Mo Lan had no choice but to lie down flat, one on each side, and let them both eat.
Xue Lingfeng sat on the sofa, sipping tea and watching his two children nursing. His eyes were filled with smiles, and he felt a warmth in his heart. It was so good to be at home.
"I figured the kids would be born around these days, so I rushed back as fast as I could. But these two couldn't wait for me and ran out first. They really deserve a spanking," Xue Lingfeng joked with a loving look in his eyes.
"You're lucky you made it in time for the full moon celebration. It's tomorrow, so it's quite good that you made it. I initially thought you wouldn't be able to make it back. I haven't asked you yet, did you come back by yourself? Did Father come back with you?" Mo Lan asked.
“We’re back. If it weren’t for Father’s poor health and his need to recuperate in the capital for a few days, we could have returned sooner. Father and I came to the villa together. He went to Mother’s courtyard, while I went straight back to Lan Garden,” Xue Lingfeng said softly.
"It's good that you're back and that you're safe." Mo Lan was relieved. The fact that her father-in-law had been rescued meant that the matter in the capital had been resolved, so she could finally relax.
Xue Lingfeng watched as the two little ones ate their fill and fell asleep, while Mo Lan put them in their cribs, which she had made after becoming pregnant and were now in perfect condition.
Granny Bai and Xueyan went downstairs. With the son-in-law there, they weren't needed anymore. Since the young master wanted to eat in the middle of the night, the food had to be left with Molan.
"Lan'er, why was she born prematurely?" Xue Lingfeng asked, holding Mo Lan in his arms.
Mo Lan paused for a moment, then briefly recounted what had happened that day.
As she spoke, she could feel Xue Lingfeng's body tense, and she could sense his anger, clearly resentful that she had suffered such a fate.
"It's alright, it's all over now. Look, we're both fine now, aren't we?" Mo Lan gently comforted her.
Xue Lingfeng didn't reply. He had almost lost the woman he loved and his child. The Xue family was so ruthless. It seemed he hadn't done enough.
"How was the matter in the capital handled?" Mo Lan asked, wanting to know if there would be any more chaos in the future.
Xue Lingfeng's eyes turned cold, and he said, "After Zhen'er left, I focused my efforts on finding where my father was imprisoned, but he seemed to have vanished without a trace."
Left with no other choice, I had to marry Xue Man'er first to appease the Xue family.
As Xue Lingfeng finished speaking, Mo Lan shifted slightly, but she didn't interrupt.
"Lan'er, do you believe me?" Xue Lingfeng asked.
Mo Lan nodded, and Xue Lingfeng continued, "On the wedding day, during the time for paying respects to the parents, both my father and that woman came out. At that time, our plan was to have our men protect my father as soon as we saw him, and as long as he was alright, the wedding would be called off."
But at that time, I saw that my father looked weak and listless. The person in charge of the Xue family secretly told me that my father had been drugged. If I dared to break off the engagement, dared to fall out with the Xue family, or dared to take my father away, then my father would not live for more than three days.
My father looked really bad, so I had no choice but to first pay my respects to heaven and earth, and then ask someone to take his pulse. The doctor said that my father had been poisoned, and it was a slow-acting poison. This poison was very special; he needed to take an antidote once a month for three months to fully recover. And only the person who prepared the medicine had the antidote; no one else could do it.
My seventh brother and I were furious, but there was nothing we could do. The Xue family used my father as leverage to control me. They returned my father to me, but they wanted the antidote from the Xue family, so I couldn't afford to fall out with them.
Although my father was poisoned, he was not stupid. These days, he was imprisoned and thought a lot and came to terms with many things. The Xue family's actions had also chilled my father's heart.
My father told me not to worry about him, to do what I should do, and not to let him do anything wrong. He said he would rather die than implicate everyone.
Although Father said that, how could we ignore him? After discussing it, I decided to deal with Xue Man'er first, see if we could steal the antidote from the tenth prince, and the seventh prince, along with the old marquis, Grand Secretary Chen, and others, collect evidence of the Xue family's crimes. We were determined to teach the Xue family a lesson.
On my wedding day, I pretended to have drunk too much and went into the bridal chamber and collapsed on the bed. Because someone was watching me, I couldn't sleep anywhere else.
I didn't touch Xue Man'er. The next morning, when I got up, I saw her sitting on the edge of the bed. She had been sitting there all night.
There was a white silk ribbon on the bed. She asked me what to do, and I said it was up to her. In the end, she pierced my arm and dripped blood on it. Then, people from the Xue family came and took away the white silk ribbon. They were very satisfied with the bloodstains on it.
Afterwards, she said she knew I didn't want to marry her, that it was all to save my father, but she was willing to marry me, willing to take responsibility for me in front of the Xue family, and she believed that her sincerity would eventually move me and make me fall in love with her.
Three days after her return visit, the Xue family asked Xue Man'er about our relationship. Xue Man'er probably said something nice, and the Xue family sent someone to give her father the antidote.
Because the eleventh prince couldn't find out who had the antidote or where it was, I was trapped in the capital and could only pretend with Xue Man'er.
Although we were in the same room every day, I never touched her, not even hugged her. There was a quilt between us, and I said that this was the limit, and I would never cross it. But one night she pulled the quilt away and tried to hug me. I quickly got out of bed and made it clear to her that I only had eyes for her and that I would not touch any other woman.
That night, she sat by the bed and cried all night. She said I was heartless. She had been so good to me, always taking responsibility for me, and even covering for me in front of the Xue family, but I had let her down like this.
I don't know if I let her down, but I know I can't let you down.
A few days later, Lao Shi came to report that he had found out who had the antidote and asked me to send someone to meet him immediately.
We rushed over immediately, but by the time we arrived, Lao Shi had already suffered serious injuries, and three of his guards were dead. His whereabouts had been discovered, and if we hadn't arrived in time, Lao Shi's life would likely have been in danger.
We seized the antidote, captured a person in charge of the Xue family, and extracted a lot of information from him.
The imperial physician confirmed that the antidote was genuine. Now that we were no longer bound, we immediately began to expose the crimes we had gathered against the Xue family.
First, low-ranking officials filed lawsuits against the Xue family, then mid-ranking officials, and the situation escalated, leading to a dispute in the capital. Meanwhile, the Xue family's troubles snowballed, and they faced more and more accusations.
The Xue family began to refute and resist, especially since they cut off our contact with Shang Chang. For a time, I couldn't get any news about Shang Chang, and Shang Chang didn't send any information to the capital. So I always thought that my home was safe and that nothing was wrong.
At first, the emperor did not pay attention and even blamed the official who accused the Xue family. However, as things developed in a way that was beyond his expectations, he did not expect the Xue family to have so much trouble.
Later, the fact that the Xue family and Consort Chen had conspired to frame the Imperial Concubine was exposed. The Emperor was furious. It turned out that the Xue family had sent Consort Chen to the palace to deceive him, so that once Consort Chen became pregnant, they could support her son to ascend the throne and the Xue family could seize power.
Once one thing is clear, everything else becomes clear. The Emperor is no longer confused and has banished Consort Chen to the Cold Palace. Now, the Noble Consort holds absolute power in the palace, replacing the Empress in wielding the Phoenix Seal and achieving the same rank as the Empress. Consort Chen assists the Noble Consort in managing the harem, and the two get along quite well.
The prince born to the imperial concubine was also named crown prince and is the future successor to the throne.
After the Xue family incident, many officials were dismissed, and some were even exiled to the army. However, because the Xue family was the same family as the Imperial Concubine, the Emperor showed some leniency and did not severely punish the Xue family. Nevertheless, the Xue family's fate was sealed, and they were destined to decline.
The officials who had attached themselves to the Xue family scattered like monkeys when the tree fell, and each received different punishments. Xue Lingfeng let out a long breath and hugged Mo Lan tightly.
