Yu Wan looked at the side of the bed. It was empty. âThey woke up quite earlyâ¦â
âYoung Madam, how do you feel?â Zi Su lifted the curtain and looked at Yu Wan worriedly.
Yu Wan looked at her strangely. âWhy are you looking at me like that?â After a pause, she realized something and asked, âHow long have I been sleeping?â
âA day and a night,â Zi Su said. âItâs almost evening.â
It was the light of evening. She thought it was morning⦠Yu Wan sat up with Zi Suâs help and muttered, âWhy did I sleep for so long?â
Yan Jiuchao entered the room. The three fat children also walked in with tears in their eyes and threw themselves into her arms.
The older the children were, the more sensible they became. They were not as easy to coax as when they were two years old. Yan Jiuchao told them that Yu Wan had just fallen asleep, but in their eyes, their mother, who woke up early every day, suddenly did not get up. This was something wrong. It was useless no matter what others said.
âIâm fine.â Yu Wan smiled and rubbed their heads. She was indeed fine. She was really just sleepy. She did not feel any discomfort.
The three little fellows widened their black eyes.
Yu Wan smiled and said, âIâm really fine. Iâm just tired and want to sleep.â
Zi Su was stunned. As expected of a husband and wife, their excuses coincided.
The three little fatties were successfully appeased and let Zi Su bring them out. Only Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao were left in the room.
Yan Jiuchaoâs expression was a little indescribable.
Yu Wan blinked strangely. âWhatâs wrong? Could it be that thereâs a bolt from the blue?â
Yan Jiuchao thought seriously. âOh, you can say that.â
Yu Wan immediately thought of the situation she had been in recently. Her first reaction was that she had been tricked. Her expression changed drastically. âIâm really pregnant?â
âNo,â Yan Jiuchao said.
Yu Wan heaved a sigh of relief.
âYu Ah Wan!â Yan Jiuchaoâs face darkened. âHow much do you not want to be pregnant with my children?!â
Speaking of which, the first thing she thought of was pregnancy!
Young Master Yan was very angry!
âDa Bao and Erâbao are still young. Iâm just afraid of neglecting them. Of course Iâm willing to have children with youâ¦â Yu Wan explained guiltily.
Yan Jiuchao snorted. âNo wonder youâre so eager every night!â
Yu Wan : ââ¦â
Could they still be husband and wife happily?
âThen what is it?â Yu Wan returned to the topic.
Yan Jiuchao said without changing his expression, âThe imperial physician came to take a look. He said that your body is exhausted.â
This was a bolt from the blue, okay? Her body was depleted at such a young age. Fortunately, she was discovered in time. Otherwise, it would be bad if she fell ill in the long term.
Yu Wan looked at him in confusion. âI didnât do farm work.â
Yan Jiuchao continued, âIt has nothing to do with farm work. Youâre young and canât withstand too strong a demand.â
In other words, she was overindulging and had to reduce her sex life?
Yu Wan blushed and said, âThen⦠then letâs do it once every four days?â
Yan Jiuchao did not say anything.
Yu Wan was stunned. âFive days?â
Yan Jiuchao moved his fingers. âTen days.â
Yu Wan lay down hopelessly. âItâs⦠itâs really a bolt from the blueâ¦â
In the side palace, Helian Qi also woke up faintly. Although the Gu poison in his body had been cleared by the State Preceptor, the damage to his body was not so easily healed. His internal energy was half of his peak state, and he would not be able to recover in three to five years.
Thinking about how he had lost so much internal energy just by teasing a little maidservant⦠Of course, there was also his dignity. Helian Qi was furious. If it were in Nanzhao, he would have long found the culprit, but it was in the territory of the Great Zhou!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, even if he didnât investigate, he could guess who it was. He had just threatened Yan Jiuchao, and now he had attracted such a disaster. He didnât believe that Yan Jiuchao didnât cause trouble!
Perhaps he had even planned for that little maidservant to lure him in!
âGeneral, I happened to hear something.â General Wei Yuanâs subordinate entered the room to report.
âWhat is it?â Helian Qi said coldly.
The subordinate said, âI was originally going to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion to investigate the culprit, but I accidentally heard that Mrs. Yan is the second boss there.â
In that case, the Drunken Immortal Pavilion was considered half of the Young Master Manorâs territory. It seemed that the culprit was really Yan Jiuchao.
Helian Qi gritted his teeth and said, âYan Jiuchao, since you dare to do this, donât blame me for being ruthless!â
There was a hunting garden on the west side of the palace that housed all kinds of ferocious beasts. Every autumn, the Emperor would bring his relatives and ministers into the courtyard to hunt. Although it was early summer, the Emperor had opened the hunting garden in advance in order to better entertain the envoys of the two countries.
