Chapter 1206 They all wanted to cry.
"I won't get up, I won't... My lord, you can punish me for other things. I'm much worse than Zixu and the others at handling affairs. I also have to manage the Sun family army with Yibai on weekdays. I can't manage my dowry and such, my lord..." Xu Minghe hugged Yang Qianxun's leg tightly and wouldn't let go.
The others silently shifted their gaze, but their ears were perked up, listening intently to the two of them.
I never imagined Minghe would be so willing to go to such lengths to avoid trouble...
Such shamelessness...
Yang Qianxun moved his leg but couldn't shake the person off. He said coldly, "You can't manage anything? You just want to slack off, don't you? Would the Xu family of Fenglinzhou marry someone like you who can't manage anything to the matriarch? How about I take charge and send you and your newborn child back to the Xu family?"
"That way you don't have to worry about anything, isn't that great?"
Upon hearing Yang Qianxun's words, Xu Minghe looked at him in shock. The next second, he stood up almost without hesitation and stood properly: "My lord, I... I can handle it, I can manage it. I will not go back to the Xu family. My child and I belong to my wife in life and in death!"
At that moment, his heart was completely dead. His carefree days had been a waste, gone forever... Waaah...
"Nanfeng, do you have any further objections? Don't you want to follow my orders? Or do you think my words have no effect?"
"No...no...My lord, we will do our best to complete it!" Nanfeng, Puan, Lin Zixu, and Mo Rongjin said at the same time.
They were remarkably in sync, but their faces were paler than each other's, and their expressions were stiffer than each other's; they hadn't shown any sadness since they entered the room.
Waaah... Is our lord really this ruthless? They shouldn't have pushed him out like that. Who suggested having a second child... Waaah... Just thinking about what's to come makes them all want to cry.
Nanfeng thought that he had been in charge of the Phoenix Feather Guard for many years, and if it took a month to determine the location of the branch pavilion and arrange the site selection, he would probably be exhausted.
Ahhh... I'm really going to die!
He still wanted to be with his two daughters... his daughters! Right after they were born, their father was so busy he couldn't see them anymore...
The other three were also listless. Lin Zixu thought about all the trivial matters in the manor every day. If he were to take charge, he probably wouldn't even have time to drink a sip of hot water... He had just become a father and didn't even have time to look after his child... Waaah, he wanted to die.
Mo Rongjin thought about the things his lord had told him. Organizing the shop wasn't difficult, but the array involved many more things. If he didn't keep busy for a while, his child... would he not even have a chance to see his wife again?
Woohoo....
At this moment, Pu An's heart was pounding. He could think of how to handle matters concerning his wife in the court with just a few simple words. He had to deal with those slippery ministers in the court every day and handle the matter.
The key issue is that they are all eyeing the marriage of the wife or children. Can he handle it alone? If he says he can't now, can't the lord stop me from fighting alone?
"My lord, I..."
Seeing Pu An's expression, Yang Qianxun interrupted him, saying, "Now that Yan Xi, Hao Xuan, and Gong Yang are all in the court, I will have them assist you!"
"Thank you, my lord. That's all right now." Pu An breathed a sigh of relief.
Xingchen silently watched Yang Qianxun make arrangements, and saw that they all looked like wilted eggplants. The lord with full power was different; he solved so many things in an instant.
This way, he can free up his hands and spend more time with his children.
"Since the lord has given the order, why don't you all go back and rest? Are you planning to start tonight?"
The group immediately shook their heads in refusal. Xingchen looked at their somewhat dazed expressions, especially at Mo Rongjin's appalling face: "You should all go back now! Especially Rongjin, don't you see your current appearance? Your face!"
"What's wrong with my face? My eyes feel a little sore."
"Heh, here you go, see for yourself!" Xingchen took a mirror out of her bosom and handed it to him.
Mo Rongjin walked to the brightest spot in the candlelight, opened the mirror, and when he saw himself in the mirror, the sky seemed to collapse once again.
His appearance, so ugly, and yet he was just hugging and crying to this wife... he's finished...
Nanfeng and the others subconsciously walked to Mo Rongjin's side, took the mirror from his hand, and looked at their own faces.
"My face is a bit pale, my wife probably didn't see it clearly!" Xu Minghe patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
The others looked somewhat disheveled, but they were all in better shape than Rong Jin. They endured the pain without crying, while Rong Jin cried non-stop from the moment she was in pain.
Xingchen watched them all looking at themselves in the mirror, her lips twitching. The mistress had already left; what use was it for them to see now?
Yang Qianxun frowned as he looked at the group, seemingly wanting to send them away. Suddenly, he remembered something: "My wife will be in confinement for a month, so you should hurry up and decide on the child's name."
"If anyone wants to take your mother's surname, let me know once Ayao agrees."
"Yes, my lord, we understand. We will finalize the name in the next two days."
"Then you should go back and get some rest!"
As soon as Yang Qian finished speaking, Mo Rongjin covered his face and ran away almost without hesitation.
Xu Minghe and the others immediately bowed and left.
Suddenly, only Tian Wangchen, Baili Jihua, Xingchen, Chen Jingshu, and Yang Qianxun remained in the courtyard.
Tian Wangchen remained huddled up, the words his lord had just spoken still echoing in his ears. He couldn't and didn't want to have a second child with Yunsheng. He... he didn't want to...
"My lord... I shall take my leave now." Tian Wangchen stammered nervously, bowed, and quickly got up and left, his figure disappearing into the distance.
He didn't dare mention what he had just said at all; he was terrified that it would confirm his suspicions... His lord today was too terrifying; he shouldn't have come, he shouldn't have come...
Chen Jingshu watched him leave and laughed, "You threatened him with the idea of having a second child, and look how scared you made him."
“This is not ‘blackmail’. He and Yunsheng are brothers from the same mother. He and his brother have shared joys and sorrows. How can this be considered blackmail!”
“My lord is right, everything he says is right, I agree.”
As Chen Jingshu spoke, he gave a thumbs up: "My lord, you are really exuding domineering aura today? You almost scared them half to death. Don't try to scare me."
"Jing Shu, I see you've been quite free lately? Should I arrange some things for you?" Yang Qianxun said in a cool tone.
"No need for that. The affairs of the Dali Temple are very heavy, and I am very busy."
