The Blessed

Chapter 472



After listening for so long, Ling Jingxuan almost got the whole story. Simply speaking, Yan Shengrui promised to take care of her for the sake of his nanny. He only promised to support her and find her a husband when she grew up, and then his obligation done. But Qin Yu wishfully thought his so-called taking care of her was to marry her some day, and had been holding this dream for all these years. But his appearance completely shattered her beautiful dream.

Thinking here, Ling Jingxuan couldn’t help smiling. So brainless! A man like Shengrui, if he really had that intention, how would have only removed her slave registration? To say the least, even if he didn’t show up and Yan Shengrui really married her, did she really think she could be the crown princess? And even if she became the crown princess, could she really hold it? Maybe she didn’t even know how when she died.

“Are you done?”

Things were made clear now. It was all a farce of a woman who was originally a maid but dreamed of becoming the crown princess. So he was already in no mood to go on listening to her bullsh*t.

"Jingxuan, you are my crown princess. In this mansion, even I have to listen to you. So you decide."

Yan Shengrui also meant to ignore the woman. The promise he had made to his nanny, he had fulfilled it. But since she was still not satisfied and even humiliated his wife again and again, then don’t blame him for going back on his words.

"Rui…"

"Steward Zhu, I will give you a quarter of an hour to gather all the servants and maids and the women who are confined in the backyard to the front courtyard."

Qin Yu still wanted to say something, but Ling Jingxuan did not give her the chance, he shut her mouth by pricking a silver needle into an acupoint, no matter how she moved her mouth, she just couldn’t utter a word. Seeing here, Steward Zhu hurriedly responded and bent to back out.

"What? Hungry again?"

No one knew what he wanted to do, and no one dare to ask, of course, Ling Jingxuan could never kindly explain. He beckoned the servants on the side to drag Qin Yu out, then as he lowered his head, he saw that the little Dumpling was staring at him without moving his eyes curious, arms and legs moving, so cute!

"My crown princess, I’ll go get the goat's milk for the little master."

Seeing that, Lady Long quickly trotted out, and Ling Jingxuan reached out to pick up the little baby, and couldn't help poking his little face gently, "Haven’t you just had a bowl of goat's milk at noon? Why hungry now? Look at you! Do you really want to be a meat-stuffed dumpling?"

Every day, the little Dumpling was only eating and sleeping. Now, only two months, it already felt a bit heavy in the hands. If he kept eating like this, he’d definitely turn into a meat-stuffed dumpling.

"It’s good being a bit chubby. Wait, I almost forget, our little Dumpling is already Duke Ling!”

Yan Shengrui also leaned over to poke their little son’s chubby face, and felt out the imperial decree by the way. After receiving it, Ling Jingxuan just threw it on the tea table, “There wouldn’t be so much trouble if he has issued the decree earlier. I think the emperor is a masochism.”

"Hehe…what? You want to abuse him?"

Yan Shengrui picked his eyebrow, with those tiger eyes rendering with naked interest and expectation. Ling Jingxuan rolled his eyes, "Temporarily no, oh right, I remember the empress dowager is still alive, right? What is her family background?”

They couldn’t touch anyone in the palace now, but not those outside the palace.

"The Zheng family. The current head is the empress dowager's younger brother Zheng Chengren. After my imperial elder brother succeeded to the throne, he conferred him the title of Duke Wen, but his rights were squandered. At present, he should still be in charge of the compilation of the history of the kingdom. Some others only take some minor titles.”

His Majesty used them but not on those important positions. That was His Majesty’s repay for the Zheng family who had ever assisted him to seize the throne. He had given them all the glories, but not power.

"Hehe, Shuiling, you and Lady Zhang feed our little duke. Ling Yun, come with me.”

Hearing that, Ling Jingxuan made no comment. Seeing Lady Zhang come in holding the fresh goat’s milk and it was quite noisy outside, he got up and handed the baby to Song Shuiling, then went out with Yan Shengrui and Ling Yun.

On the empty space in the front yard gathered a lot of people. The servants and maids stood in line according to their class, while on the other side came a lot of carriages slowly, and then those well-dressed women got off under the support of the maids. Everyone couldn’t help looking toward the direction of the hall. Heaven knew how excited they were when they heard that His Highness summoned them. Having been here for so long, finally they got a chance to see the legendary Prince Sheng!

Ling Jingxuan who was walking side by side with Yan Shengrui was still wearing those plain cotton clothes, even wearing no better that those maids and servants with a title, but his momentum was unparalleled. Even wearing those coarse linen clothes, it wouldn’t decrease any bit of his charm. Yan Shengrui by the side still wore those black armors, emitting that kind of domineering and tough man’s aura, that sculpture-like face made a lot of people pound. Such kind of man with both good appearance and power was undoubtedly the dreamy husband of all women.

“Are those your women?”

Throwing them a cold glance, Ling Jingxuan couldn’t help asking with jealousy. Holy crap! There were all kinds, thin or fat, short or tall. After dealing with those women, see how he’d castrate him!

"Er, they are not my woman. Jingxuan, can you talk normally? I swear I have never seen any of them.”

Yan Shengrui instantly turned into a Pekingese and begged for his wife’s mercy. He was wrong, really! Tomorrow he’d tell the whole world that whoever dare offer him a woman, he’d raze their family to the ground!

"This isn’t over.”

Throwing him a cruel eyes, Ling Jingxuan pushed him away and then slowly stepped down the steps. Watching his back, Yan Shengrui gave a wry smile, this time he had really poked a hornet's nest!
