Transmigration into a Book: My Lord, Your Wife Has Taken Another Concubine for You

Aunt Xie endured the ordeal with trepidation until the next day at dawn, when she successfully gave birth to a daughter.

When Lin Yanran found out, she simply said "I know" calmly and didn't care anymore.

As for names and the whole moon, it's not her child's business, so it's none of her concern.

Anyway, she's just a concubine's daughter, and the household can afford to support her, provided that Aunt Xie can protect her herself.

In the days that followed, Lin Yanran's main task remained to take good care of her health.

Therefore, Chu Yunxuan was in charge of everything in the Marquis's mansion, including the miscellaneous affairs in the backyard.

For the first time, Lin Yanran felt incredibly bored. Not only did she not have to worry about household affairs, but even if she tried to read a book for a while, she would be stopped by the people around her.

Fortunately, her body was really weak, and she spent most of the day in a daze.

Otherwise, Lin Yanran felt she absolutely had to rebel against her son's domineering ways.

Once Lin Yanran felt better, she had Wenmei arrange for people to move all the valuables from her private treasury outside the mansion to her newly purchased house.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Emperor has taken most of the ministers, nobles and members of the imperial family of Cangming City on a spring hunt, and that there are few old foxes left in Cangming City, they quickly transferred their private treasury under the pretext of purchasing furniture.

As for the people who used to guard the private vault, Lin Yanran still had them stay at the original residence, hoping to use them to lure out the mole.

Wenmei had already supervised the renovation of the two houses, and the secret rooms were also built. They were just waiting for their master's instructions.

Upon receiving Lin Yanran's instructions, he immediately led his people to get to work.

Wenmei and her team worked for a full month to relocate those who needed to be moved and to settle those who needed to be settled.

As for why it took so long, having a lot of stuff is only one reason. The most important thing is to keep things under wraps, which requires the right timing, so the operation is slower.

After finishing her errand, Wenmei hurried back to serve Lin Yanran.

When Wenju saw that Wenmei had returned, she was overjoyed and excitedly went back to the room where she kept her treasures, touching each of them one by one.

About half a month after Wenmei returned to Lin Yanran's side, the Emperor had been away on a spring hunt for almost two months, and Lin Yanran felt that the Emperor and his entourage should be returning soon.

The main reason was that during these two months, Lin Yanran couldn't specifically inquire whether anything had happened during the spring hunt, so she was constantly on edge.

After all, Lin Yanran's older brother had also gone on the spring hunt, and Lin Yanran was quite worried that something might happen to him.

Thanks to Lin Yanran's concern, the Emperor returned to Cangming City exactly two months after his trip.

As soon as the Emperor returned to the palace, Lin Yanran knew what had happened. There had been an assassination attempt at the spring hunting grounds, and the Emperor, Empress, Consort, and others were all present.

At the critical moment, the Empress stepped forward and used her arm to shield the Emperor from an arrow.

Although the wound wasn't in a critical location, the situation was urgent, and the Emperor was naturally moved that the Empress was able to shield him from the arrow.

So as soon as the emperor returned to the palace, he discussed making the eldest prince the crown prince.

As for who wanted to assassinate the emperor, it was either the emperor's former brothers or the remaining forces of his former faction.

The emperor rose to power through a fierce struggle among his brothers. How intense was the competition back then?

Look at how all of the Emperor's brothers are dead, and all the princes who barely grew up are also dead. The eldest prince is only fifteen years old now, and that tells you what's going on.

The reason why the eldest princess is so favored now is not only because she is the emperor's younger sister from the same parents, but also because she has always stood on the emperor's side during the struggle for the throne.

The eldest princess even went so far as to kill the third prince, who was the most favored by the late emperor, on behalf of the emperor. Fortunately, the late emperor had already passed away by then.

This is one of the reasons why outsiders perceive the eldest princess as tyrannical.

Lin Yanran was relieved to know that her older brother and sister-in-law were alright.

After the eldest princess and her husband Lin learned what had happened during the spring hunt, the eldest princess was quite frightened.

In those situations, she usually sat quite close to her brother. When things came to a head, she would always protect him.

The eldest prince is about to be named crown prince, and he will no longer have time to study, so there is no need for Chu Yunxuan, who is a study companion, to enter the palace.

Chu Yunxuan was also pleased about this. He didn't like going to the palace to be a study companion. It was like sleeping with one eye open, for fear of making a mistake.

Over the past few years, Chu Yunxuan has also demonstrated his business acumen to the First Prince and the other three who are also his study companions.

Chu Yunxuan has already begun managing the Crown Prince's private assets.

Therefore, even if Chu Yunxuan stayed in the manor, he was not worried that someone would replace him in his position by the side of the First Prince.

Chu Yunxuan still intends to follow the same path he took in his previous life, shining brightly in his area of ​​expertise.

While the Emperor was making preparations for appointing the eldest prince as crown prince, Chu Mochen returned after finishing his errands.

Lin Yanran used the excuse of being unwell and did not bring anyone to greet her at the entrance of the Marquis's residence, leaving her eldest son, Chu Yunxuan, to wait at the entrance alone.

Chu Yunxuan didn't want to wait at the gate of the mansion, but when he saw his father get out of the carriage and turn around to help a woman down, Chu Yunxuan angrily turned around and walked into the mansion.

Chu Mochen, with his sharp eyes, noticed Chu Yunxuan's actions. He cursed the unfilial son in his heart, but quickly called someone over, "Xuan'er, why don't you come and greet your father?"

Chu Yunxuan, with the air of a spoiled young master, casually turned around and walked over, giving a perfunctory bow, "Son greets Father."

Chu Yunxuan didn't wait for Chu Mochen to call him up before standing up directly.

Chu Yunxuan glanced at the woman who had been hiding behind Chu Mochen since he arrived. "Father, who is this? Aren't you going to introduce her?"

Chu Mochen gently pulled the woman hiding behind him out. "This is my savior. Call her Aunt Miao!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunxuan placed one hand on the sword at his waist, wondering whether he should send the two adulterers to their deaths with a single blow, as well as Aunt Miao.

"Oh, so it's Aunt Miao! She's quite pretty, but why does she insist on becoming a concubine?"

Miao Xiaoxiao tugged at Chu Mochen's hand and asked him timidly, "Does this child not like me?"

Chu Yunxuan, who was already thirteen years old and looked almost like an adult man, unexpectedly stepped forward, picked up Miao Xiaoxiao with one hand, and threw her out.

She fell heavily to the ground not far away, making a loud thud. Miao Xiaoxiao struggled to get up for a long time but couldn't manage it.

Realizing what had happened, Chu Mochen immediately went to help Miao Xiaoxiao, not forgetting to yell at Chu Yunxuan, "Chu Yunxuan, how dare you!"

"What bad luck!" Chu Yunxuan was too lazy to argue with these two bastards. After complaining, he clapped his hands and went into the Marquis's residence.

Miao Xiaoxiao, who was genuinely scared, and Chu Mochen, who was red-faced and furious, were left alone.

Chu Yunxuan entered the Marquis's residence and went straight to Lin Yanran's main courtyard without stopping for a moment.

The weather was nice today, and Lin Yanran was lying on a deck chair in the yard, basking in the sun, when her eldest son stormed in.
