In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!

Chapter 1294: Chapter 1204: The Emperor Who Slept on the Floor

According to the usual rules, new Jinshi scholars had to spend two or three years in the Hanlin Imperial Academy before they could fill a real vacancy.

Right now, the three of them were suddenly hit by a pie from the heavens. How could they not be delighted?

Yet, despite their happiness, once His Majesty assigned them the task of conducting an investigation, the trio felt they could no longer be pleased with His Majesty’s assignment.

However, the Imperial Decree had been issued, so they had no choice but to go forward with it.

Helpless, they could only pinch their noses and step up to the task.

Compared to their helplessness, Qin Yi was also very helpless.

Because of the krait, Su Pan’er no longer trusted the wet nurse with the care of her two children and forcibly moved both cradles into her bedroom.

The two children lay side by side next to Su Pan’er. The originally spacious bed was immediately occupied by mother and children.

With Little Yanyan and Little Sugar Bean, who had arrived after hearing the news, there was completely no room left for Qin Yi, making him quite helpless as he had just returned to the room to rest.

"Empress Mother, look, the Imperial Brother is blowing bubbles again!"

Little Yanyan joyfully called out to her mother, and upon seeing her father return, instinctively wanted to get up but was held back by Su Pan’er.

Su Pan’er seemed to ignore Qin Yi and chatted and laughed with Little Yanyan.

"He is just this mischievous. Look, he is smiling at you again, hahaha... come on, smile for your big Imperial Sister..."

"And me, and me... I want one too..."

Little Sugar Bean circled her little brother and sister, and from time to time, she stretched out her chubby little hand, sneakily poking the infants’ little hands and feet while mumbling to herself.

Su Pan’er didn’t stop her mischief, but rather consciously guided the four children to get along peacefully.

"Little Sugar Bean, don’t bully your Third Imperial Sister. You are the Second Imperial Sister, how can you bully the younger ones?"

"Not true!"

Little Sugar Bean had gotten quite good at speaking short sentences: "Imperial Brother is naughty, not playing with Sugar Bean..."

This was simply the case of the pot calling the kettle black!

Su Pan’er laughed, "Little Sugar Bean, be good. Your Third Imperial Sister and little Imperial Brother are still young. When they get a bit older, they will play with you. Understand?"

"I understand now, Empress Mother, annoying annoying annoying..."

Little Sugar Bean suddenly started acting petulantly.

Seeing that the mother and children were playing well, Qin Yi was helpless and had no choice but to go to the adjacent study to read. Su Pan’er stared at his retreating figure, then turned back to continue interacting with the four children.

After the four children fell asleep, she couldn’t stay awake either and snuggled up with the children and fell asleep.

When Qin Yi came out of the study, he saw all five members of the family occupying the entire large bed.

He was exceedingly helpless, carefully covering the children with the thin blanket they had kicked off, and even had someone bring in ice to cool the room down further. Then he had someone bring a cool mat to the side of the bed on the floor, where he lay down and fell asleep.

Not long after he had fallen asleep, Su Pan’er also opened her eyes.

She hadn’t expected Qin Yi to do such a thing. She had thought that upon seeing her and the children occupying the bed, he would return to the Purple Zen Hall to rest.

Unexpectedly, he simply made a bed on the floor!

Have you ever seen an emperor who gives up the dragon bed for his wife and children and sleeps on a makeshift bed on the floor?

Su Pan’er had not only never seen this, but she hadn’t ever even thought about it.

Why does she feel the urge to laugh upon seeing this scene before her? Especially watching him, with his tall and sturdy body, desperately trying to curl up, sleeping soundly by the foot of the dragon bed, the anger within her heart dissipated slowly.

It wasn’t really his fault that this happened!

But she lashed out at him, simply because His Majesty always doted on her and indulged her in everything. She was fearless, which led her to lose her temper at him without any reservations.

Reflecting on it now, her notorious temper hadn’t changed one bit over the years!

Even years of a pampered life in the palace hadn’t smoothed the rough edges off of her, she still resembled a kitten that had retracted its claws.

Yet, without warning, she would stealthily stretch out those claws and swipe at someone.

She let out a soft chuckle!

Looking at Qin Yi, who was sleeping soundly across from their four children, Su Pan’er stared at his overly handsome and manly face, feeling overwhelmed with happiness.

Finding a comfortable position on the silk pillow, she closed her eyes and fell back asleep.

Lu Da and two others began to get involved in investigating the krait incident, never expecting things would turn out to be beyond their expectations.

They could find absolutely no clue where the krait had come from; had they not known that kraits were native to the regions of Southern Fujian and Jiaodong, they might have thought that the snake had "coincidentally" appeared atop the house beam and "coincidentally" fallen down.

Exasperated and clueless after a thorough search, they couldn’t simply go back and report their failure; they had no choice but to persist, inspecting every palace and hall one by one!

Even so, after days of continuous trying, they still ended up empty-handed. Lu Da and his companions had no choice but to report back to His Majesty, inevitably leading to a severe scolding.

That left the three deeply disheartened, so much so that they lacked the energy even to walk.

"I thought a grand avenue was laid before us, but to end up like this... It’s truly... a joy turned to ashes."

Catching each other’s eye, they felt even more miserable.

"I thought this would be an opportunity to advance greatly like a Fish Leaping Through the Dragon’s Gate."

Wang Gui was observant to another aspect, "Based on His Majesty’s final orders, it seems like he intends for us to leave Shengjing, to move somewhere else?"

"It’s an exile indeed!"

Zeng Gongliang hardly had the strength to talk, "I thought I’d at least be a minor official in Shengjing. Now, I have been directly sent back to my hometown. By the time we claw our way back, our contemporaries might well have become ministers."

"Sigh!"

"Sigh!"

"Sigh!"

The three of them sighed in unison, looking at each other with faces full of uncertainty.

"With the vigor of youth and the audacity to match it, at the peak of blooming years, yet you mourn here, don’t you find it tedious?"

Just as they were sighing, a voice suddenly came from behind them.

Immediately, the three turned around, to find unexpectedly, it was King Ye, and they quickly went forward to greet him.

"Never mind, as they say, ’What you lose on the swings you gain on the roundabouts.’ It’s best not to take these gains and losses too seriously."

Ye Han waved his hand, glanced at the three men twice, and without waiting for them to respond, he left with his hands behind his back.

Coming hurriedly and leaving just as quickly, the three were puzzled over King Ye’s unusual behavior. However, with his words, they lost the desire to converse further and quickly exchanged a few words before going separate ways to their residences.

Zeng Gongliang got into his carriage, which, however, didn’t move for a while.

Wang Gui’s carriage passed by in front; he even lifted the curtain to look back at Zeng Gongliang’s carriage several times before shaking his head helplessly and letting the curtain fall. His carriage soon entered the main street of Imperial Street, fading into the distance.

Then, Zeng Gongliang finally lifted the curtain, stepped out of the carriage, and briskly turned back, chasing in the direction King Ye had gone.
