Chapter 351: Reward, Visit (2)Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translation

But then again, the half-sacrificial soldiers were also sacrificial soldiers. If they couldn’t defeat Helian Qi, how could a few prey hurt him?

The Emperor racked his brains but did not think that Helian Qi was harmed by his two useless sons.

Fortunately, the Emperor had already believed that it was an accident, so he could not be bothered to complicate matters on the surface. He politely blamed himself and returned to the palace.

That night, the State Preceptor came to Helian Qi’s room.

“Master, the pills you wanted.” Wan Feng brought a heated pill to the State Preceptor’s face.

The State Preceptor looked at Helian Qi expressionlessly and said, “Feed him.”

Wan Feng was puzzled. “This is the Nine Revolutions Soul Return Elixir. Master wants to… keep him alive? He’ll be in pain.”

With such serious injuries, death was a relief.

The State Preceptor said, “He can’t die for the time being.”

If he died, they would have to help him return to the country. However, they had yet to obtain the holy artifact of Nanzhao. They could not come for nothing. Helian Qi had to live, even if he had to struggle at death’s door.

“Is it because of the holy artifact?” Wan Feng had a faint guess about this, but he was not too sure. Moreover, he did not think that he could find it. The Capital was so big, finding a palm-sized iron bead was no different from finding a needle in a haystack.

“The results will be out soon,” the State Preceptor said.

Wan Feng blinked. What did Master mean? Could it be that there was the whereabouts of the holy artifact?

On the other side, Yu Wan brought the children back to the manor. After coming out of the Hundred Birds Garden, the children went to the beast garden. Rare wild beasts were locked in cages. The weather was hot, and the smell was not good. Most of the women could not stand it, but the children were having so much fun that they forgot their homes. When the bad news came from the hunting ground, the little fatties were squatting in front of a red fox’s cage. They held the cage with both hands and pressed their heads against it, wishing they could squeeze themselves in.

The cage had two barriers and there was no danger of them touching each other, but Yu Wan had no choice but to ask them to leave.

“It’s getting late. Let’s go back,” Yu Wan said softly.

For the first time, the three little fellows looked at her coquettishly. They didn’t want to leave. Although they were young, they understood that these things that could be put in cages were not available outside. If they went out, they would never see them again.

Yu Wan thought for a while and said, “We also have a little fox at home. It’s snow-white and looks better than it.”

The three little fellows looked enlightened. They grabbed Yu Wan’s hand and could not wait to go home to find the little snow fox.

Yu Wan found it funny. Did you think it was a puppy in the past?

The Ninth Princess was picked up by Emissary Cui. Before she left, she looked at Yu Wan reluctantly. Yu Wan smiled and promised her that she would visit her the next time she entered the palace. Only then did she happily leave with Emissary Cui.

Thinking of the Ninth Princess’s dependence on her, Yu Wan wondered if she really had an affinity with children or if that child did not receive much maternal love from the Empress. It was already impossible for the Empress to give birth to more children at her age. The reason why she kept the beautiful and cute Ninth Princess by her side was more or less to attract the Emperor’s attention. The Empress needed the Ninth Princess, but wasn’t it the same for the Ninth Princess? Her biological mother had passed away early, and the Emperor was busy with court matters. If not for the Empress’s protection, her life would be much more difficult than now.

Yu Wan patted the heads of the little fatties. At this moment, she was glad that she had recognized them and experienced the benefits of Yan Jiuchao not taking concubines. Yan Jiuchao had deep feelings for his children. If there were really a few illegitimate children in the manor, who could guarantee that her little fatties were their father’s favorite?

The little fellows were in a hurry to go home and play with Little Fox. However, they were tired and did not rest for the entire day. The moment they got into the carriage, they fell asleep.

After getting out of the carriage, Yu Wan carried each of them into the upper room. Tao’er and Li’er went to the kitchen to fetch hot water. Ban Xia found a clean change of clothes. Yu Wan bathed and dried the three little fat fellows’ hair. The three of them were dragged around and did not wake up for a while.

“You’ve been tired for a day. You guys should rest too,” Yu Wan said to Zi Su and Fu Ling.

“Yes.” Zi Su accepted the order and left the room with Fu Ling.

Fu Ling really went to rest. Zi Su waited in the room for a while, but Yu Wan had already washed up and gone to bed.

Yu Wan was also tired, but Yan Jiuchao was not back yet. She wanted to wait for him.

After a while, Yan Jiuchao sent someone to pass the message that he and the princes had gone to visit Helian Qi and asked her and the children to rest first.

Yu Wan did not have the habit of waiting for anyone in the past, nor did Yan Jiuchao have the habit of sending messages home. They were all people who did things their own way, but they had all learned to care about their partner after their wedding.
