Mʏ Tᴏᴜɢʜ Hᴜsʙᴀɴᴅ2 - Chapter 23: Chapter 23

None of the assassins could escape.
Han Tingxuan held the child in his arm and never got out of the carriage from the beginning to the end. Neither did Tian Yusu.
After all the assassins were dealt with, Han Tingxuan said, “I’ll go to check how the Emperor is doing. Carry the baby.”
Tian Yusu took over the child clumsily, “Be careful.”
Han Tingxuan looked at Tian Yusu speechlessly. “You must be careful and take good care of Zhuohan.”
“Zhuohan?” Tian Yusu suddenly paused.
“Mmm, his name,” Han Tingxuan said before leaving the carriage.
Whenhe reached Mo Yanzhi’s carriage, Han Tingxuan asked softly, “Big Brother, can you come in?”
Mo Yanzhi said with Tian Yuexi’s voice. “Mmm, come in.”
Han Tingxuan got in and said, “The assassins have already been solved. You are not scared, are you?”
Mo Yanzhi shook his head slightly.
Han Tingxuan held his hand with concerns in his eyes.
Mo Yanzhi shook his head slightly. “I’m fine.”
The two of them didn’t say anything and Han Tingxuan went out of the carriage.
The rest of the journey was safe all the way back to the Suburban Palace of City of Capital.
Mo Yanzhi and the rest got out of the carriage while Han Tingxuan and Tian Yusu followed behind Mo Yanzhi on each side. At this moment, the child did not get out of the carriage and was in the car.
Lou Yanqing and Dongfang Hui were waiting outside, and Dongfang Hui was six months pregnant. His belly was big enough.
“Long live the Emperor.”
“Rise,” said Mo Yanzhi lightly.
“Are you alright?” Mo Yanzhi asked Dongfang Hui with a soft voice, and Dongfang Hui replied immediately, “Thank you for your concern. I am feeling perfectly fine.”
“Well, that’s good,” Mo Yanzhi nodded and looked at Lou Yanqing again. “Consort Lou has contributed a lot to the prince’s birth. You will be promoted to Consort Lou with Honor when we get back to the Imperial Palace.”
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Lou Yanqing knelt down and thanked.
“Return to the palace,” Mo Yanzhi said flatly.
“Return to the palace!” The attendant she-man announced.
At this moment, in the imperial palace.
Nangong Jue was staring blankly.
Dongfang Xu sighed. “His Majesty is coming back. Why are you still in a daze?”
Nangong Jue looked at Dongfang Xu and sighed.
Dongfang Xu asked, “Is it a difficult family problem?”
Nangong Jue was worried. “I suspect…” He opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.
Dongfang Xu added, “Nangong Yu has changed too much. Did anything happen to him?”
Nangong Jue’s eyes darkened. “Could he have been cursed?”
“Do you suspect this?” Dongfang Xu was a little surprised, then his eyes darkened. “Male wife Nangong is a good person. His children should have done such a mistake. In fact, Nangong Yu grows up under our watch. Although he’s a little spoiled, he’s still very polite. Nowadays, he’s either bewitched or a physical problem… Have you gotten a doctor for him?”
Nangong Jue nodded. “Yes, we have. But there’s no problem. Could it be that the doctors are not able to diagnose the symptoms of a curse?”
“I don’t know. Did you request an imperial doctor?” Dongfang Xu asked.
Nangong Xu said helplessly, “Deputy Chief Dongfang is still at the border, while Doctor Shen is with the Emperor. I have turned to the other imperial doctors who haven’t come up with a result yet.”
Dongfang Xu thought for a moment and said, “His Majesty is coming back to the palace soon. Doctor Shen will definitely come back with him.”
“Yes, I will make a request to the Emperor,” Nangong Jue sighed. “I’m ashamed that something like this…”
“Perhaps there is a secret behind it,” Dongfang Xu consoled.
At this moment, a servant she-man walked in.
“Greetings, milords.”
“Chief Eunuch Qing. What’s the matter?” Dongfang Xu asked.
“His majesty has already left the palace. He will arrive at the palace in two hours.”
“His majesty returns today!” Nangong Jue and Dongfang Ye stood up and immediately said, “I see. We will go to wait immediately.”
“If you will excuse me,” After the servant left, the two of them looked at each other and quickly went back to work.
Four hours later, Mo Yanzhi arrived at the entrance of the palace. All the officials were waiting at the entrance of the palace. It could be seen that Nangong Jue and Dongfang Xu did a great job.
“Long live the Emperor.” Mo Yanzhi stood in front of the car, and all the officials chanted so out loud.
“All rise,” Mo Yanzhi said out loud like one of the only king.
“Thank you, Your Highness!” The officials stood up.
“Return to the palace,” Mo Yanzhi said softly, then turned back to his seat.
“Ready to go back to the palace!” the she-man announced loudly.
After the emperor entered the palace, officials started to have a discussion.
“His majesty hasn’t been in the palace for more than half a year. This time, when he comes back, he looks more condescending than before.”
“That’s right. I’m afraid those arrogant men would suffer a lot these days.”
“Fortunately, there aren’t many of them here. We don’t have to worry.”
“Mmm… His majesty is more powerful. We should just do our job.”
“I heard that Consort Lou gave birth to a prince. I’m afraid he’ll be rewarded.”
“He would be rewarded for sure, and he will be promoted to Consort Lou with Honor?”
“I’m afraid so!”
“Consort Lou and Prince Chen’s husband are close relatives. And since Prince Chen’s husband has always been with the Emperor on the outside journey. I bet he will be awarded more.”
“Indeed, Prince Chen’s husband is also a capable person, and he can be a friend.”
“I think so too…”
“…”
After the emperor returned to the palace, he returned to the dormitory. He didn’t even enter the imperial study. Most importantly, he didn’t call in Dongfang Xu and Nangong Jue.
Within half a year, these officials were taking charge of the national affairs. Now since the Emperor had come back, he did not ask the two officials to hand over the power.
Everyone was guessing what the emperor meant.
However, although the Emperor did not ask Nangong Jue andDongfang Xu to hand over the right, he issued some of rewards.
Lou Yanqing was now the Consort Lou with Honor and he was rewarded a lot.
Han Tingxuan and Tian Yusu both received many rewards.
In addition, two ordinary Kungfu practitioners were titled level-seven county magistrate.
These two Kungfu practitioners were titled because of their achievements in getting the treasure. Although this matter was handled by Tian Yusu, the performance of the two young men was recognized by the emperor.
At that time, the traps had killed countless people, and the two young men had saved many people. In the end, they had obtained inheritance! And these two young people who got inheritance decided to contribute to the country.
Three of six stone doors were blown up and three people got the inheritance. Two of them had contributed themselves to the country, while the other was the nephew of the leader of the Martial Art Alliance who was closely bonding with the government. Therefore, the government was the winner of the case.
Moreover, the influence of the martial art world had decreased because of this, which was also a good thing for the court. Especially for the two major sets in City of Jade who lost many elders and also lot of great fellowmen.
Besides, not only did they not get the inheritance, they were involved in the murder cases. The murderer used the blood curse and was dead at last. The Martial Art Alliance took this opportunity to weaken the strength of the two sects. Now the Martial Art Alliance was the most powerful in the whole City of Jade, which was a better scenario of the government.
There was a banquet at night in the palace, and some of the court officials were invited. However, everyone found a problem: Duke of Guanjing and his family were not present.
Did they not come… or was he not invited?
At the banquet, the emperor only showed up for one drink and went back. No one dared to ask them to stay.
On the other hand, Han Tingxuan and Tian Yusu were drank a lot. In the end, Han Tingxuan could barely walk on his own. A part of the reason was because he was pretending!
“Prince Chen’s husband.” A rank-one official walked up to Han Tingxuan. “Prince Chen’s husband, congratulations.”
Han Tingxuan chuckled. “What for?”
“Consort Lou with Honor gave birth to the Little Prince. Isn’t it worth a congratulation?”
“Haha!” Han Tingxuan smiled. “Although I’m a relative to Consort Lou, we are not close. Official Fang. Watch whatever you say. It is a forbidden rule that Imperial Concubines get close to the officials, not even a relative. You are not harming me, are you?!”
“Haha!” Official Fang laughed loud, “Alrigh. I won’s say it again.” But that was not the case with his eyes which was sending a signal to Han Tingxuan.
Han Tingxuan drank another glass of wine and fell backward. He didn’t fall to the ground. It was Lu Han who came with him.
Lu Han was his servant and quickly supported him. “Master, are you alright?”
As Han Tingxuan was so drunk and the banquet ended, Lu Han said goodbye to Official Fang and helped Han Tingxuan left.
Tian Yusu looked at Han Tingxuan, who had left, with the corner of his “drunk” eyes. The corners of his mouth curved up. At this moment, Han who dressed up like a guard stood in front of him. “You’ve drunk a lot too. Let’s go back…”
Tian Yusu nodded. “Mmm…”
