In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!

Chapter 528: Chapter 527: Situation_1

At first, Qin Yi was pleased, but he then shook his head. "Didn’t you say he didn’t have any life-threatening concerns? If so, why not wait until after you give birth?"

Wait for her to give birth? After that, she still had to go through the confinement period, which would take at least three to four months.

Su Pan’er laughed. "I’m only pregnant, not disabled. Haven’t you seen the women in the countryside working in the fields while they’re pregnant?"

"They are them, you are you!"

Qin Yi spoke seriously. "I won’t allow my woman to work in the fields while pregnant! All you need to do is focus on maintaining your pregnancy health!"

He spoke with great earnestness.

"Alright, I’ll focus on maintaining my pregnancy health."

Su Pan’er nodded. "However, Qin Hong’s injuries, even if postponed a bit, should not be a big problem. But the longer it is delayed, the harder it might be for it to be completely healed in the future!"

Although the human body has a self-healing ability, a crack in the spleen is not a minor issue, it wouldn’t heal that easily.

"Is that so?"

Qin Yi contemplated for a moment, then gritted his teeth. "If that is true, I’ll ask him later. Let’s see what he has to say!"

"Sure, you go and ask. After all, many people do not like having a woman examining their body, let alone one who is currently pregnant. Some people might... have their prejudices. You should ask for his opinion first." Suggested Su Pan’er.

"Yes, I understand!" Qin Yi responded seriously.

After dinner, he went out.

He returned only after a while with a stern look on his face.

"Master Qin said that he has already found a reputable doctor to treat his illness, so you don’t need to concern yourself," he said.

Although Qin Yi didn’t say it, Su Pan’er had already deduced that Master Qin Hong was initially not very warm towards her. Allowing her to treat him? He’d probably rather die than to allow that!

Not knowing exactly what Qin Hong had said to Qin Yi, the latter was visibly bothered throughout the afternoon.

He again went out in the evening, and by the time he returned, Su Pan’er was already asleep.

The next day, before dawn, the ship had already anchored at the port outside of Shengjing. Their long journey of over a month at sea had finally come to an end.

While disembarking, Qin Yi and Su Pan’er naturally followed the team of the merchant’s group manager, while Master Qin Hong unobstructed by anyone, disembarked from another side of the ship with escorts surrounding him.

Master Qin Hong glanced back at them before leaving, smiling politely at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi returned the gesture with a stiff smile.

Su Pan’er watched as Master Qin Hong shot a profound look at her before leaving.

Qin Yi seemed to have noticed this and an icy chill quickly overtook his face, colder even than the frost accumulating on the dock’s railings.

She couldn’t help but rub her nose, full of curiosity.

What in the world did Master Qin Hong say to Qin Yi last night?

When they got off the ship, the manager of the merchant’s team kindly arranged for their belongings to be put in one of the carriages that had come to meet them. "Our goods will be directly loaded onto the carriages straight from the dock and transported to Shengjing, which will take about half a day. If the two of you have matters to attend to, feel free to leave ahead of time."

The pair appreciated the steward’s thoughtfulness.

"In that case, we’ll be taking our leave first. If there’s an opportunity in the future, we hope to collaborate with you again."

The steward looked pleased with this prospect and responded eagerly.

"Thank you for your generous offer, Young Master Qin. As they say, the mountain might not turn, but the river will, we are bound to meet again!"

They said their goodbyes to the steward, then set off for Shengjing City with Little Feng.

It was now winter and it was snowing heavily. Despite the weather conditions, the traffic on the main road was heavy. Upon reaching the city, the carriage proceeded straight to the mansion of Great General Ye without stopping.

Ye Han was already there waiting. An expression of surprise flashed across his face when he saw Little Feng.

Little Feng stared at Ye Han, shocked.

"This is a child we met on our journey who followed us to the capital," Qin Yi explained.

Ye Han nodded and led the trio into his mansion.

All the way to the sitting room, he said nothing.

Noticing his hesitation, Su Pan’er quickly spoke up. "Little Feng is just a child and he must be tired after our journey. Ye Han, could you have someone arrange a place for him to rest?"

Ye Han nodded approvingly and promptly ordered his servants to take Little Feng to clean up and rest.

He then dismissed all the servants before finally allowing himself a subtle smile. "In the past few days, His Majesty, the Eighth Prince, has sent people to inquire several times, wondering if you’ve run into any trouble on the way, that’s why it was taking you so long to reach the capital. I guessed that you must have encountered some unexpected incidents on the road. It’s a relief to see you’re both safe."

"Thank you for the Eighth Prince’s concern and your kindness, Brother Ye. While there were a few incidents, we were mostly spared from danger."

Fei’er came to mind and the pair smiled.

"That’s good to know," Ye Han nodded.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Ye," replied Su Pan’er.

Remembering Qin Hong, Su Pan’er took the opportunity to ask, "Brother Ye, have you heard of Qin Hong?"

"Qin Hong? How do you know him?" Ye Han quickly furrowed his brows.

"It was an accident. We met him on the ship to the capital. He was being pursued and we happened to meet. It seems that Brother Ye knows him?" Su Pan’er briefly explained.

"Yes, I do indeed know a man named Qin Hong," replied Ye Han.

Ye Han looked at the pair seriously and said in a low voice, "He is the eldest son of Prince Xuan, Qin Zitong. He possesses good looks and charm, is articulate and is highly favoured by His Majesty. During the contention for the Crown Prince’s position between the actual Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince, which led to bloody violence, Prince Xuan and several other princes were implicated and exiled to their respective fiefs. These princes and their heirs rarely have opportunities to enter the capital, but Qin Hong is an exception. He almost has an audience with His Majesty every year and even stays in Shengjing City often."

"I see. So, this time, he’s entering the capital on His Majesty’s summons as well?" asked Qin Yi out of curiosity.

"No," replied Ye Han, refuting Qin Yi’s statement. "By next spring, it’ll be His Majesty’s 70th birthday. All the feudal lords are entering the capital to celebrate His Majesty’s birthday. Considering their long journey from their respective territories, they’ve arrived early. Even I wasn’t aware of the arrival of this eldest son of Prince Xuan. That he was pursued all the way here is surprising. Seems like someone has deeply plotted against him!"

Qin Yi and Su Pan’er exchanged looks but remained silent.

Ye Han seemed deep in thought for a moment, then broke into a smile.

"We’ll discuss this matter later. Both of you should go and rest in the inner chamber. Whatever you need, feel free to say it. Since you two are my sister by choice and her husband, if any servant dares to treat you with disrespect, feel free to punish them. I’m going to the palace for the morning court session tomorrow, and will go to see Fei’er. So, wait patiently for good news!"
