Chapter 621 (1/2)

Xu shi’s suggestion caused the other two women to object. Qin shi immediately expressed her thoughts: “No! She will sleep with me!”

Miao shi did not back down either: “With me, with me!”

For the sake of having a niece sleep with them, the three sisters-in-law fought for the first time in years.

Yao Xian’s head hurt from listening to this and immediately made a decision for the three sons: “I don’t care what you were thinking. Either way, you must keep having children! Keep going until you have a daughter!”

Just as the three sons of the Yao family were worried about how to give birth to a daughter, Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tian Ming’s carriage arrived on the street nearest the Yao manor.

The time after dinner was rather lively. There were plenty of people walking around, and there were plenty of people walking around the night market. The speed of the carriage gradually began to slow.

Feng Yu Heng lifted the curtain and looked outside. The street was filled with sighs. At the same time, she heard some people talking over a meal at a stall. One of them said: “This newly appointed left prime minister lord Lu really does have lots to celebrate! After being appointed for just two months, he managed to secure a marriage for his daughter of the first wife with the top-ranking scholar of this year. His future is boundless.”

“No matter how boundless, just where will he go? He’s already the prime minister and a standard first rank official. There are no ranks left!”

“But speaking about it, this lord Lu’s schemes really are profound. He actually requested a marriage with the top scholar.”

“But of course, this year’s top scholar is…”

The carriage moved further away, and the conversation could no longer be heard. Feng Yu Heng put down the curtain and leaned back in the carriage; however, she did not continue to think about this matter. Instead, she asked Xuan Tian Ming: “Say, will craftsman Bai be in his manor or the palace? Or has he met with an accident?”

Xuan Tian Ming shook his head, “If craftsman Bai met with an accident, father Emperor would definitely have mentioned it. He should be in the palace. As for that palace, I keep feeling that there should be someone from the North in there.”

“Who could it be?” Feng Yu Heng furrowed her brow and suddenly recalled what Prince Lian had said, “Duan Mu An Guo is not to be feared. What is to be feared are his children that have been scattered all over. Say… could it be that one of his children managed to get into the imperial palace?”

Xuan Tian Ming said: “I will not discount this possibility, but precisely who and what position or how many people have gotten in? These are all things that need to be slowly investigated. Heng… huh?” Feng Yu Heng was staring straight at him in a daze. “Hey!” He reached out and waved his hand in front of her eyes, but the girl did not react. He seemed to have recalled something and raised his sleeve to block his face. Through the sleeve, he shouted: “Bring your mind back.”

“Uh…” A certain person recovered mentally and subconsciously wiped their face. Fortunately, there was no drool, but the corner of their lips was a bit wet. “Hehe.” She laughed awkwardly a couple times, “Every time you remove your mask and speak to me properly, it looks better than when you sleep.”

Xuan Tian Ming was speechless. Ever since the first time this damn girl had seen his face, she had a lovestruck face. At that time, he felt disdain. Who knew that even after the two became familiar, she still did not show any signs of improvement.

Forget it, his wife was being lovestruck over him. This meant that he still had his beauty. Xuan Tian Ming nodded his head in satisfaction and lowered his sleeve. Holding her hand, he sincerely said: “The members of the Yao family have all been brought back to the capital. You should be able to see your three uncles and three aunts. You also have six older cousins. Your eldest uncle’s name is Yao Jing Jun, your second uncle is Yao Jing Xiao and third uncle is Yao Jing Yue. Of the three aunts, your first aunt is Xu shi, the second aunt is Qin shi and the third aunt is Miao shi. The Yao family does not take in concubines. Your three uncles only have one wife in this life. Each of them has two sons, thus they are your six cousins. They are Yao Shu, Yao Sen, Yao Xuan, Yao An, Yao Nan and Yao Xin.”

He told Feng Yu Heng about her family as though he was teaching a class. Feng Yu Heng, however, gradually began to understand Xuan Tian Ming’s intention. Over the years, she had become even weirder. In regards to the Yao family, she always mentioned Yao Xian, but she had never mentioned the others. Feng Yu Heng never realized this point, but Xuan Tian Ming was thorough enough to have considered this. But he had set his mind on this girl long ago, and he had said before that he did not care who she was. Either way, she was Xuan Tian Ming’s woman. That was why he had to tell her who each person was, what they were called and what their relation was in order to prevent her from being embarrassed.

Of course, he hoped that he would be the only one to have a faint guess about the situation, while she remained the second daughter of the Feng family and granddaughter of Yao Xian, Feng Yu Heng.

“Don’t worry.” Gave him a reassuring smile then pointed at her own head, “I’ve remembered it all. I haven’t forgotten a single one.”

Xuan Tian Ming nodded, “That’s good.”

The carriage stopped, and Bai Ze opened the curtain from the inside, saying: “Princess, we’ve arrived at the Yao manor.”

Feng Yu Heng got out of the carriage, and Xuan Tian Ming followed behind her. In front of the Yao manor’s entrance, there was a group of people standing there with Yao Xian at the front. Behind him were his three sons and daughters-in-law. Even further back were his six grandsons, each of them having smiles on their faces. They were infectious and caused her to feel quite celebratory.

Perhaps it was because they did not expect Xuan Tian Ming to also come along, and even fewer expected that Xuan Tian Ming’s mask could already be removed, Yao Xian took a couple steps forward in a daze. Kneeling, he took the lead to salute: “Greetings, your Highness the ninth prince.”
