Chapter 1196 He's leaving?
Upon hearing Lu Yuanyi's words, Yang Qianxun thought for a moment and said, "Prepare nourishing medicinal herbs in advance. Everyone outside is watching Ayao, so we can't be careless."
“The head physician Lu comes to check her pulse every few days. I suppose His Majesty knows about A Yao’s condition, otherwise he wouldn’t have stopped summoning her since she came back. But it’s too quiet, especially now that everyone is watching us.”
Lu Yuanyi pondered for a moment after hearing Yang Qianxun's words: "Is Your Majesty worried that His Majesty will bring in new concubines for the wife? Or is he waiting for the wife to give birth to the child and then do something?"
"I am somewhat worried. His Majesty's situation is uncertain. Wasn't Feng Qi and A Yao's marriage certificate kept secret from everyone?"
"Indeed, the current emperor is incapable of making big moves, but he has plenty of small ones. Feng Qi was raised by the emperor since childhood, so it's normal for him to want to marry the mistress."
"Besides, if Tian Tian wants to take power, we still need to pave the way slowly over the next ten years. There's no need for us to break ties with His Majesty. In two more years, if the wife really doesn't like Feng Qi and doesn't want to marry him, we can stop her."
“Yuan Yi is right. I was overthinking things. Fortunately, His Majesty and the palace are being supported by His Highness. Now I’ll see if His Majesty can withstand the pressure from those powerful families.”
"There are just too many visiting cards being sent outside the manor. From today onwards, I will have the gatekeepers keep the gates closed and stop accepting any more invitations. Let the pressure fall on His Majesty! I can't control it..." Yang Qianxun said with a smile, waving his hand.
Thinking of His Majesty's predicament in dealing with powerful clans, he felt much better.
"My lord's decision is very wise. My wife is about to give birth, and we are short-handed in our household, so it is normal that we are unable to take care of her."
After Lu Yuanyi finished speaking, he and Yang Qianxun exchanged a glance and smiled at each other before preparing to leave the side courtyard. Now that his wife had Xingchen and the others clinging to her, she no longer needed them.
The other servants' arrangements also had to be stopped, and some of the wife's personal clothing had to be brought over, as the wife couldn't possibly let them hold her all the time.
At this moment, only the Alliance Leader Duan remained in the side courtyard, craning his neck to look in the direction of the house. He hesitated, wondering whether to get a closer look. Seeing that Yang Qianxun and Lu Yuanyi were almost at the courtyard gate, he hurriedly called out:
"I haven't finished asking you two yet! Should I stay here a little longer? I want to..." to look at them a few more times!
Hearing the howling of the Alliance Leader Duan, Lu Yuanyi stopped in his tracks: "Alliance Leader Duan, please do as you please! Right now, Xingchen and the others are only clinging to the Master, so they probably don't want to see you."
"But...I..." The leader of the Duan Alliance heard the intermittent sounds coming from inside the room and was reluctant to leave. He hadn't had enough of looking at and touching these beauties yet!
And he'll be leaving to go back to Fragrant Hills in a few days, so it'll be so hard to see them again, sob sob... How pitiful he is!
Undeterred, Alliance Leader Duan moved closer to the house. Lin Zixu, standing at the door, said to him, "Alliance Leader Duan, we need to be with our wife now. Shouldn't you be leaving too? You're not trying to peek through the corner, are you? We're going to tell Master's wife right now!"
"No...don't go, you heartless people! I've already used my internal energy to suppress the turmoil within you, and you won't even let me take a second look?"
"You helped us suppress it, but you also took advantage of us! Which of our hands or faces hasn't been touched by you?"
The leader of the alliance, feeling somewhat guilty, gave a snort, got up, and left.
Hearing Lin Zixu's words from inside the house, Su Yueyao asked curiously, "Xingchen, does Alliance Leader Duan always take advantage of you like this? Don't you ever beat him up?"
"My lady, it's not that we don't want to beat him up, it's that we can't hit him at all. We were in pain before, so we didn't have any fighting power at all," Xu Minghe said, feeling frustrated.
Su Yueyao laughed unkindly after hearing this.
“My lady… stop laughing. Apart from Yunsheng and Chengyan, who can suppress him to some extent, no one else can even get close to him. But fortunately, he can keep us in check, otherwise we would be in a worse situation than we are now,” Nanfeng said.
Su Yueyao looked at them, each with their own unspeakable suffering and the frustration of having to bear the weight of his inner strength, and didn't know how to comfort them.
"Alliance Leader Duan also... also because he saw that you were all handsome, that's why he did this. Now that he has decided that Yunsheng's fourteenth son will inherit the Duanhong Alliance, he probably won't stay in the manor any longer."
"My lady, really? He's leaving?? Is it confirmed that it's Little Fourteen? Have Little Fourteen and Little Seventeen's names been confirmed yet?" Mo Rongjin exclaimed, her voice filled with surprise and joy.
Finally, the lecherous leader who had been staring at them every day was leaving. Thinking about how he would wash his face and hands many times afterward, he would scrub off a layer of skin from his face and hands.
He's finally leaving...
The others visibly relaxed and were happy upon hearing the news.
“Yunsheng’s two children were chosen by themselves, and they were named in order: Tian Shisi and Tian Shiqi.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard the name. Was that really a name?
"Is the name 'wife' really real?"
“I asked Qianqian before, and he also felt it was not good to put the child in the family tree, but Yunsheng and Duan Mengzhu both agreed. It seems that Duan Mengzhu came up with several names, and Yunsheng was not willing to accept any of them. The two argued for several days and finally decided to name the child according to the order!”
Everyone: "................................................"
“My lady, if that’s the case, it’s no wonder Yunsheng calls the child that. The Alliance Leader’s naming is indeed not very pleasant to hear, otherwise how did names like Chengshi, Chengsheng, and Chengyi come about?” Pu An said.
“Pu An is right. The names of Xiao Shisi and the others are not important. What is important is that it is a great thing that Alliance Leader Duan can leave our mansion,” Mo Rongjin said with a smile.
The others nodded in agreement upon hearing Mo Rongjin's words, and even Xingchen visibly nodded.
Su Yueyao burst out laughing at their actions. How much trauma must they have been through?
"It's good that Alliance Leader Duan is gone. Don't overthink it. It was just a few touches. Relax."
As soon as Su Yueyao finished speaking, everyone looked at her. Was their wife trying to comfort them? This was simply...
"My lady, what do you mean by 'a few times'? It means 'many times'! We are your husbands, how can you let others touch us like this!" Xu Minghe shouted, his voice seemingly trying to avoid the question.
Su Yueyao was first startled by his sudden howl, and then felt a little uneasy under the stares of the others, especially the cold aura emanating from Xingchen. She immediately felt that if she didn't say something right, she might be doomed.
"My lady... is this hard to answer? Hmm?" Xingchen whispered in Su Yueyao's ear.
