Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C996 996 Secret arrangements

Looking at Liu Ruo Qing’s pale face, he knitted her brows and said: “It’s only been two months, yet his (her) mother is already in such a state. Wait for him (her) to come out, then see how I’ll take care of him (her).”

Yan Yuan’s “vicious” look made Liu Ruo Qing scoffed, “If she was a girl, would you still be willing to take care of her?”

Yan Yuan was choked by her words, and immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. He extended his hand and lightly scratched the tip of her nose, “You only know how to push me down.”

If it was his little cotton-padded jacket, he definitely wouldn’t be willing to clean it up. However, if he let his mother suffer, then he would still teach his a lesson.

“You made me worry. If I knew that you were pregnant, I wouldn’t have let you come to this place filled with miasma and risk your life.”

Yan Yuan hugged Liu Ruo Qing’s slender body, and at the same time, helplessly and lovingly said, “From now on, you will be obedient and live in peace. You will not be allowed to go anywhere else.”

Hearing that, Liu Ruo Qing frowned, she had guessed that Yan Yuan would say something like that.

But other than her face becoming a little pale, she truly did not feel any discomfort. When she was carrying Heng Er back then, she also did not suffer much, but she occasionally felt a little nauseous.

But this child relieved her even more than Heng Er. All this time in Yizhou, she almost didn’t feel uncomfortable at all, she didn’t even feel nauseous.

How could she bear to be left in the county magistrate court with nothing to do?

Seeing her frown, Yan Yuan knew that she had started to become restless again. Not giving her the chance to object, he said, “If you don’t agree, I’ll get Tian Shu and the others to send you back to the capital.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Liu Ruo Qing looked up and glared at Yan Yuan, then sighed with his head lowered.

Yan Yuan was helpless to do anything, he patted his back and said: “Be good, I’ll settle the matters here as soon as possible, we’ll return to the capital, at that time, I’ll do whatever you want to me, what do you say?”

Liu Ruo Qing rarely obediently nodded her head. Suddenly, she pretended to be indifferent as she sighed, “I don’t know if I’m safe in this county.”

This seemingly random sentence caused Yan Yuan’s expression to change. Earlier, he was too busy trying to stop her from going out to avoid getting infected by the plague that he forgot this county magistrate was also a place of jackals.

Seeing the crafty look in Liu Ruo Qing’s eyes, he laughed helplessly, “You just think that I can’t do anything to you, right?”

“Where is it?” “That pig father and son pair are not good people to begin with. Don’t you worry about leaving me in the county magistrate court?”

Yan Yuan pinched the tip of her nose and said, “No matter how brazen that pig is, he wouldn’t dare to hurt you right under my nose. I’ll have Tianshu and the others stay behind to protect you.”

“No way!”

Liu Ruo Qing rejected him flatly, “Tian Shu left them to protect me, then what about you?”

“Don’t worry, Zhu Yi Dou still won’t be able to deal with me. Moreover, I still have some tricks up my sleeves.”

“What trump card?”

Liu Ruo Qing looked at Yan Yuan curiously.

“We’ll know in a few days. Besides, it might not be useful.”

Seeing how mysterious Yan Yuan was, Liu Ruo Qing did not pursue the matter any further. She thought of another matter and spoke out, “What are you going to do about the emergency food depot? It seems like that pig will not easily take out the food.”

Yan Yuan raised his brows, “I’ve thought of a way.”

“What method?”

Liu Ruo Qing’s eyes lit up.

Yan Yuan bent down and whispered a few words into Liu Ruo Qing’s ear, and when Liu Ruo Qing said that, she laughed out loud. Then, he patted Yan Yuan’s shoulders and pretended to be pouting: “You really have a stomach full of evil tricks.”

“Same here.”

Even though he already had a backup, when he thought about how the lord messenger did not have any evidence, he did not have that kind of fearless feeling.

On the contrary, when he thought of that handsome yet sharp face, his entire body couldn’t help but tremble.

That person was so young, but the aura he exuded was enough to scare people off. He lived in the county magistrate court, and under his watch, he actually didn’t dare to have any ill intentions.

“My lord, I don’t know what that messenger surnamed Yan will do next. We have to quickly come up with a plan.”

The identity that was written on the official statement was the Minister of Revenue Yan Yuan, they had verified that the official statement was not fake, and thus, they believed in his identity as an official.

Zhu Yi Dou cast a cold glance at the Grand Master beside him, and said with a cold voice through his nose, “You can’t even think of what he’s going to do next, how can you think of a countermeasure?”

“This …”

“I really didn’t expect that a young boy who hasn’t even reached his prime would be so unfathomable.”

He probed a few times with his words, but none of them revealed the slightest bit of arrogance.

Grand Master didn’t answer, but nodded in agreement. He then continued, “Lord, although we don’t know what Lord Yan is planning, but we can’t get around the issue of the emergency granary and herbs. As long as we prepare for these two things, we will be able to deal with him, right?”

“You’re saying …”

Master whispered into Zhu Yi Dou’s ear, and the two laughed together.

“The imperial government’s food rations will arrive in two days. As long as we can survive for these two days, when the imperial government’s food rations arrive, the attendants will be busy with disaster relief matters. How can they have the time to care about such emergency food rations?”

As Master said this, he looked at Zhu Yi Dou with a fawning expression. He was naturally trying to curry favor with this man, so he hoped that he might be able to obtain some benefits from the disaster relief food.

After thinking about this, he said, “Sir, have you forgotten that this messenger is here to handle the task of disaster relief and has a woman by his side? It can be seen that she is extremely lustful, and when the time comes, we just need to send some beauties to deal with her.”

He slapped his thigh with all his might, “That’s right, the food for the disaster is not a small amount. If we can get rid of this messenger, let alone half of him eating meat, it wouldn’t be too much for us to drink some of the soup, right?”

“Master is wise.”

Master gave Zhu Yi Dou a big thumbs up, her eyes full of stratagem.

“You go and settle the account book for the messenger. We can use this matter to probe the messenger’s thoughts.”

“Yes, my lord. I will handle it right away.”

The Grand Master bowed and retreated in front of Zhu Yi Dou.

As for Yan Yuan, after hearing the secret guard’s report about the conversation he had with the Grand Master, his thin lips curled up into a cold smile, “You sure know how to scheme.”

Tian Shu stood in front of Yan Yuan, and upon hearing Yan Yuan speak, he asked: “Duke, what should we do next?”
