Chapter 662: Chapter 644 Disturbance from All Directions_1

His eyes were brimming with emotion, which moved Su Pan’er so much that her heart ached. She hastily pulled back her hand, glanced around, and spat at him.

"You fool! Stop thinking about all that. I’ve told you, whatever decision you make, I support you!"

"Very well! Your words give me clarity on what to do next!"

At last, Qin Yi’s furrowed brow relaxed.

After cleaning up the bowl and chopsticks, Su Pan’er glanced back at Qin Yi. She sighed quietly, unable to describe her complex emotions.

As for whether Qin Yi should inherit the Datong, she sincerely hoped he’d follow his heart.

Being an emperor is not easy, and yet, it is.

What truly matters is whether he has the will. Deep down, Su Pan’er did not want him to ascend to the throne.

Throughout history, every man who ascends to that position is inevitably surrounded by a harem!

She, Su Pan’er, could accept anything but sharing her man with another woman!

Hence, her selfish desire was for Qin Yi to maintain his current status.

However, if Qin Yi craved for the throne, she would fully support him to realize his dream.

Back in the house, Su Pan’er saw Nanny Zhou cradling Little Yanyan and patting her back, trying to get her to sleep. Nevertheless, Little Yanyan kept wriggling in her embrace, never resting for an instant.

Seeing Su Pan’er return, she hastily curtsied: "Ma’am."

"Give the child to me!"

Su Pan’er reached out to take the child, gently patting her back to sleep.

Perhaps it was because she saw Su Pan’er, but Little Yanyan grinned and babbled at her for quite some time, incomprehensibly, before finally succumbing to exhaustion and gradually drifting off to sleep.

"Ma’am, let your servant hold her while she sleeps."

Nanny Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to take the child. The little girl has been glued to Su Pan’er ever since the recent event, insisting on being soothed to sleep by her. Even Nanny Zhou, who she previously adored, no longer seemed to suffice.

"She was probably frightened when we were fleeing. She’s still very timid now."

Su Pan’er felt helpless and carefully handed over Little Yanyan to Nanny Zhou. "By the way, have we received any news from the Qin Family’s Mansion?"

When they left initially, Nanny Zhou’s son and Little Yanyan’s milk brother were both left behind in the mansion. Additionally, there were people like Su Huarong and Su Ke, who were not brought over by Qin Hong during the incident at Huangjue Temple. Currently, their situation was unknown.

So, as soon as it was slightly safer around here, Su Pan’er eagerly sent someone back to investigate. However, they have yet to receive any news.

"It’s all your servant’s fault, for scaring the young lady during that incident..."

Speaking of this incident, Nanny Zhou felt exceedingly guilty.

Initially, she was terrified by the scene of Su Pan’er killing someone, causing her to vomit and scare Little Yanyan in the process.

Thinking back now, Nanny Zhou wished she could sink into a crack in the ground.

"Don’t bring up the past, it’s all over."

Su Pan’er looked up, scanning her surroundings: "Did Qingwen and the others go to help again?"

As the conditions were currently harsh and transport inconvenient, not to mention the heavy snowfall in Qinling sealing the mountain region, it was difficult to purchase the items necessary for the mourning ceremony. As a result, Su Pan’er had to get her maidservants to contribute to tasks like sewing mourning clothes and preparing meals.

"Yes, they went early in the morning. I’m afraid they will still be busy for several days."

Nanny Zhou, gently patting Little Yanyan on her back, replied quietly.

Su Pan’er nodded, acknowledging the scarcity of resources in the mountains, and wondered how long everyone could endure.

After discussing with Ye Han and the others, Qin Yi decided to stick to their original plan of finding a suitable burial site in Qinling to lay his late father’s body to rest.

However, due to the present circumstances, they had to keep things simple.

Despite this, everyone was worn out. It was worth noting that this was, after all, the final rest for a national sovereign. Even in its simplicity, all necessities had to be in place, and every preparation needed to be complete.

As everyone busily prepared, ten days later, Fei’er finally arrived with Imperial Consort Hua and others!

As soon as Imperial Consort Hua’s party arrived, they were wailing and making a big scene!

Amongst the party were numerous old ministers left by the late emperor.

Calling them old ministers was putting it lightly, calling them old-fashioned was not an understatement. From the mourning hall to the coffin, they nitpicked everything.

Even Imperial Consort Hua’s expression was terrible! Upon hearing Qin Yi and others mention their plan to bury His Majesty’s mortal remains in Qinling, she immediately looked displeased.

"No matter how you see it, His Majesty was a sovereign of a nation. He must be buried in the Emperor’s Mausoleum, befitting his status. How can he be buried casually in any tomb, just like unknown nobodies?"

"Imperial Consort, what did you mean earlier when you mentioned ’unknown nobodies’?"

This remark made the already solemn face of Qin Yi even more somber: "We are living in tumultuous times, and the situation is unfavorable to the crown prince. Sending the late emperor’s remains back to the capital now would be highly inappropriate! Your Highness, consider this, we have limited manpower. Should we encounter the enemy during the journey back, what would we do?"

"This, this..."

Imperial Consort Hua was flabbergasted, unable to respond. However, she soon retaliated: "Even so, we cannot haphazardly proceed with the burial."

Qin Yi remained unyielding, effectively silencing Imperial Consort Hua.

"The senior tasked with site selection is extremely capable and knowledgeable about such matters. He will inevitably choose a suitable location for us. We won’t just bury His Majesty haphazardly. Once the crown prince eradicates the traitorous officials, we can also exhume His Majesty’s coffin and place it in the mausoleum."

This suggestion was illuminating to everyone. It seemed like a good solution.

Perhaps it was Qin Yi’s assurance that relaxed the faces of Imperial Consort Hua and others dramatically.

Next, they arranged for numerous people to assist, eager to finish the burial of the coffin as swiftly as possible. Despite having abundant help, the process was time-consuming.

Soon, the people sent by Qin Zitong and Qin Hong arrived almost simultaneously!

The people sent by Qin Zitong carried an oppressive demeanor, as if they held a hint of contempt. This irritated Su Pan’er, causing a glint of coldness to flash in her eyes.

Even in such circumstances, did Qin Zitong still want to exploit the news of the late emperor’s passing?

Thinking carefully, it was likely impossible for someone who dared to lay a hand on his biological father to send help casually and expect to dismiss her so easily!

However, the arrogant attitude of the arrivals provoked Qin Yi, and in no time, Su Pan’er heard about Qin Yi chopping down the envoy. She felt a cold sweat on his behalf.
