In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 386 Is it really a coincidence?

"Master Yao is going to hurry on. What if A-Yao still feels uncomfortable?"

"I'll prepare some relief pills for Miss Su to take. I think Miss Su will feel uncomfortable in the boat after two days."

“…Is she so delicate?

"Now it's just a relief. When we get to Nanling Prefecture, we just need to have a good rest."

"Master, I will go down and prepare some medicinal herbs."

"Ah."

Yao Lao left the room directly.

Several people sat around the table.

"Did something happen in the south of Xingchen? We shouldn't have encountered so many wolves last night." Huan Yanxi asked.

"It has been raining in the south for the past few days, and there are very few sunny days. The canals that have been repaired are all flooded, and the paths leading to the south are experiencing mud and rock slides, so more people are taking the boat to Nanling Prefecture than in previous years."

"Those wolves should have come down from the mountains. Wu County has received many reports from the public that they have encountered wolves, and some have even attacked villages."

"The road is not safe. The small roads are blocked. Many people take the official roads. So my wife, we have to hurry on the road for the next two days and get to the dock as soon as possible."

"I have sent people to charter a boat in advance. When the time comes, you will follow Yao Lao. He knows which boat it is and the people inside are all arranged by me." Xingchen said.

"If the rain doesn't stop, will it be safe for my wife to go to Nanling Prefecture?" Pei Yuqi asked with some concern.

"Nanling Prefecture is the center of the entire south and is the most prosperous place. Other prefectures and counties may encounter accidents, but Nanling Prefecture is the safest." Xingchen said.

"I have already arranged a place for you to live in Nanling Prefecture. It is next to Concubine Pei's house. Concubine Huan and the eldest prince's houses are not far away either. You can choose which one to live in when the time comes."

"It's best not to live in the Nanling government office. The prefect of Nanling Prefecture is the direct descendant of the Fengdu Gongyang family who has just taken office. My wife mainly wants some stability, and the government office is not the best choice." Xingchen said.

"Has the previous prefect He been transferred?" Pei Yuqi exclaimed.

"He was transferred just last month. Because of the flood problem, the news was not spread in time." Xingchen said.

"How did the Gongyang family know that A Yao would go down to Nanling? Did they make plans in advance? Or was it just a coincidence?" Yang Qian asked.

"The Killing Pavilion is still investigating. We will get the news before we board the ship at the latest."

Su Yueyao listened to them quietly. When she heard about the Gongyang family, she felt a little confused. She seemed to have never heard of this family in Fengdu.

“Is this Ram family very powerful?”

"The Ayao family is semi-retired! The previous heads of the family were influential figures who controlled the court of Fengluan Country. They have not been in court since the past twenty-three years. I heard that their ancestors had several gold medals of immunity from death, and they have many disciples, both civil and military officials."

"So even if they have no one in the court, no one in Fengdu dares to bully them. They don't live in Fengdu City, but half of the farms in the suburbs outside the west city of Fengdu belong to them."

“…”What a big mountain village.

"What's wrong with the prefect being from their family? I'm here just to control the flood by imperial decree. Is he trying to cause trouble for me?" Su Yueyao asked doubtfully.

"My dear wife, have you forgotten that the Gongyang family also sent you a post to select a husband before, and recommended several young men at that time?" Huan Yanxi said.

"There are five of them, right? Each of them has their own characteristics, and each of them is even stunningly beautiful. Overall, they are more handsome than us, right?" Yang Qianxun continued.

"..."

"Qianqian, you should say that they are not as beautiful as you. They can't enter my backyard, but you have already entered, so you are better than them." Su Yueyao said speechlessly.

"My lord and my wife are right." Huan Yanxi continued.

"Is there no daughter in their family in this generation?" Su Yueyao continued to ask.

"No, not this time, nor the previous one. The previous Gongyang family had a total of five sons, and they married a woman together. The woman gave birth to seven or eight sons, but Fengdu doesn't know the exact number. In addition, the men of the Gongyang family did not marry the women of the noble families in Fengdu, so we were very surprised when we saw their invitations."

"..."

Several brothers marrying one woman, tsk tsk... their generation wouldn't be planning to do the same, right?

But there are few women nowadays, who would be willing to do that?

So that's why they chose me and wanted me to give birth to a child for their family? This idea is quite advanced...

"If A-Yao goes to the government office, he must be on guard against Prefect Gong Yang. We don't know whether they arranged it on purpose or it was an unintentional coincidence."

"I see. Then let's live in our own courtyard when we get to Nanling Mansion! Xingchen, isn't the courtyard you prepared next to Yuqi's courtyard? Can we dig a secret room that connects them in advance?"

"Okay, I'll tell someone to do it."

"If I don't live in the government office, the Imperial Guards and Phoenix Feather Guards should move in with me as well."

"That's no problem. The house is big. Let them live in the front yard. The backyard is big enough for us. Besides, there's a small river between the front and back yards. There's only one bridge to go back and forth. It's very safe and suitable for my wife to take care of her pregnancy without being disturbed."

Su Yueyao was very surprised to hear this. Having a river in the house must be a great idea!

"Then it's decided."

After finishing the business, Yang Qianxun suddenly smiled and asked, "Ayao, who are you going to let accompany you tonight?"

The other three looked at Su Yueyao.

Su Yueyao froze for a moment. This was a fatal question!

"You decide for yourselves! I'll go see if Nanfeng and the others have returned with their shopping." Su Yueyao said this and wanted to leave.

"Is it so difficult for my wife to make a decision?" Xingchen grabbed her hand and asked with a smile.

“…”Isn’t it difficult?

"Qianqian, as the lord, it is your business to arrange the backyard. Why are you asking me?" Su Yueyao looked at Yang Qianxun and said.

"Then let me decide. Let Xingchen accompany you! After tomorrow, Xingchen can only guard A Yao in the dark." Yang Qianxun said with a smile.

"That's settled then." Xingchen said directly.

“…How come it’s decided?”

Pei Yuqi and Huan Yanxi didn't say much. After all, Xingchen had arranged everything along the way. It was a rare opportunity for him to be alone tonight, so it wasn't too much to give him that opportunity.

When Nan Fengcai came back from shopping, he specifically talked to Su Yueyao and explained that the situation in the south was not optimistic and that they had to hurry and travel starting tomorrow.

Because Xingchen informed her in advance, Su Yueyao agreed immediately. It would be better to reach Nanling Prefecture as soon as possible as the road was not safe.

After the group had their meal in the evening, everyone except Xingchen left and went to the next room.

Su Yueyao looked at Xingchen and said, "Shall I ask the waiter to bring another bucket of hot water? Can you take a bath?"

"Okay! My dear wife." Xingchen said with his lips slightly curled.

Su Yueyao stood up and walked to the door, and told Shiwu to ask the waiter to bring up a bucket of hot water.

As soon as she turned around, she was hugged by Xingchen.
