Four hours later, Yu She who had already calmed down stared at the merry eggs covered in red silk laying on his table. His expression changed.

Steward Feng stood off to the side, anxious and fearful. 

“I heard…” Yu She’s voice was calm, “That when people gift red eggs, it means that something joyous has occurred. That they’ve had a child. Is that right?”

Steward Feng carefully answered, “I believe so.”

“So what does he mean by this?” Anger slowly built up between Yu She’s eyebrows. “Is he provoking me, making sure I know he’s about to take a concubine and have a son?”

“No no no…” Steward Feng hurriedly stated. “Young Master Zhong definitely doesn’t mean that! He daren’t!” 

“It seems to me that there’s nothing he doesn’t dare to do anymore!” The angry fire in Yu She’s heart was enough to burn this entire estate to the ground. “He’s going to marry Kuafu and has even sent me his and Kuafu’s red eggs… Is there anything else Zhong Guiyuan doesn’t dare to do?!”

Steward Feng shook his head furiously. He really wanted to beat Zhong Wan up too. Hadn’t they come to an agreement before? They needed to take things slow. What was he playing at?!

Steward Feng tried his best to coax, “No no no, this must be a misunderstanding.”

“It’s over for him…” Yu She was so angry his eyes were red. “It’s over for Prince Qian An’s estate. It’s over for the entire territory of Qian An…” 

Steward Feng had a pained expression on. “Heir!”

“What time is it?” Yu She looked outside. “Prepare my carriage!”

“Don’t don’t don’t…” Steward Feng tried to stop him. “It’s almost Hai Shi. The curfew drums have already been beating for a long time! If you leave now, you’ll be breaking curfew. But beyond this, it’s below freezing and currently snowing. It’s impossible to travel in this weather. Tomorrow… let’s talk about it tomorrow.”

But how could Yu She listen? In the end, Steward Feng had to physically restrain Yu She from leaving. 

The anger took over Yu She. He had to drink two cups of three flower tea before restlessly falling asleep.

At the same time, in Prince Qian An’s estate, Zhong Wan finally returned to his own courtyard after checking on Xuan Rui. He took a sip of his hot tea, then stared at his teacup in a daze. Suddenly, he smiled.

Perhaps Yu She was currently drinking the same type of tea as him?

Zhong Wan was a bit restless, but also a bit excited. 

It had been many years since he had felt this way.

Zhong Wan remembered that Yu She enjoyed drinking tea. He wondered what the other had thought after receiving those tea leaves today.

Regardless, the relationship between the two of them might be somewhat restored now, right?

Zhong Wan put down his teacup and laid down.

The next morning, Zhong Wan hardened his heart and told a servant to bring another bowl of medicine to Xuan Rui.

This time, Xuan Rui didn’t have the energy to hesitate. The fever caused his mouth to feel dry. Though he knew it was poison, he still drank it in one mouthful. Not even an hour later, his fever worsened. He threw up everything he had eaten that morning; his face looked a waxy yellow and his breaths were irregular. Xuan Yu didn’t know anything. Upon seeing Xuan Rui like this, he became scared into shock. Xuan Congxin pressed a handkerchief to the corners of his eyes and lowly comforted, “Don’t worry. You still have jiejie.” 

It would have been fine if Xuan Congxin hadn’t said this. After she did, though, Xuan Yu laid in front of Xuan Rui’s bed and started howling. Xuan Congxin watched him cry from off to the side and remembered their parents who had passed long ago. She teared up too. Immediately, Prince Qian An’s estate seemed to be the center of a great storm, filled with harsh rains and relentless winds. The situation was extremely dismal.

Zhong Wan ordered someone to ask for an imperial doctor again. This time, the palace finally caught wind of the situation. Afterwards, Emperor Chongan sent two imperial doctors over and gifted the estate several nutritional supplements too.

Emperor Chongan had personally expressed his worry. The other clansmen naturally started visiting too. Starting at noon, an endless stream of visitors appeared at the estate. It was truly too cold. Yan Pingshan was scared that Zhong Wan would get sick again, so didn’t let him out to greet the visitors. Instead, he himself stayed out in front.

Until the horse carriage of Prince Yu’s estate arrived. 

Yan Pingshan was shocked. “Someone’s here from Prince Yu’s estate too? Who? Prince Yu sent someone?”

“It doesn’t look like it.” The person at the door was completely lost too. “If they had sent a steward to bring gifts, they shouldn’t have cleared the path beforehand? And a family soldier has come over to announce their arrival… Even the stewards of Prince Yu’s estate make such an impressive appearance when they leave the estate?”

Yan Pingshan replied in anger, “What are you thinking! That means Young Prince Yu is coming! Where is he?”

The person at the door almost became scared to death. “At at at at… right now, it seems that he’s already at the door!” 

Yan Pingshan didn’t have time to send someone to notify Zhong Wan. There couldn’t be no one present to greet Yu She. He forced himself to rush over.

Yan Pingshan had given Zhong Wan an intense scolding because Zhong Wan had gone to check up on Xuan Rui in the morning. Thus, he didn’t dare to step out the door again. He stayed in his room, watching over his brazier while reading a book to pass time.

Rushed footsteps sounded from outside. Zhong Wan didn’t even look up. There were many people at the estate today. He figured that Yan Pingshan was too busy, so had told people to leave their presents in his courtyard first.

Someone knocked twice on his door. Zhong Wan lifted his head. “Uncle Yan? Come in… the door isn’t bolted.” 

Someone pushed the door open. Zhong Wan looked over.

Yu She brought with him a frigid atmosphere. His eyes were filled with subtle fury. He stared directly at Zhong Wan.

Zhong Wan didn’t yet know that he had been sold by Steward Feng and duped by Yan Pingshan. He didn’t understand why Yu She was here. Temporarily, he froze, completely dazed.

Yu She didn’t say anything. He only gazed at Zhong Wan coldly, trying to control the anger in his heart. 

Outside, Yan Pingshan rushed over. He stood outside the door and panted, “Young, Young Prince… this isn’t our Prince’s courtyard! You…”

Yu She slightly turned his head, but his eyes were still on Zhong Wan. He lowly said, “This is my first time here. I don’t know the way.”

“N-no worries.” After getting out of the carriage, Yu She had directly headed in this direction. Yan Pingshan was sweaty from chasing him the entire way. He bowed outside the door, “You, you can follow me.”

Yu She gave Zhong Wan a hard look, then turned around. 

Before Yan Pingshan could heave a sigh of relief, Yu She closed the door from inside and slid the bolt into place.

A swarm of servants got locked outside the door. They stared at each other.

Zhong Wan inside the room: “…”

Zhong Wan observed Yu She’s expression. No matter how he looked at it, he couldn’t say that the other appeared very friendly. 

Zhong Wan self-reflected. Had he done something else recently?

Not at all!

After their meeting last time, Yu She had told him to get out. Zhong Wan had obediently gotten out. Yesterday he had even sent tea leaves over. Could sending gifts also make people this angry?

The air surrounding Yu She seemed to be on fire. But his lips were quirked in a smile. Zhong Wan instinctively felt nervous. Some things… seemed to be different from what he had been expecting. 

Zhong Wan furiously searched through his mind to see if he had done anything terrible recently that could cause Yu She to become this angry. At the same time, he reflexively took a step back. “Wishing Young Prince Yu… well.”

Yu She scanned the room. “Where are Kuafu and your son?”

Zhong Wan’s mind went blank.

What the heck? What son? 

Yu She saw that Zhong Wan wasn’t refuting him, so smiled. “You’re planning on making the clouds above my estate green?”

Zhong Wan was even more lost.

What clouds?

Zhong Wan remembered what Steward Feng had said about Yu She being unreasonable during his mad spells. He guessed that the other was in a spell currently, so didn’t dare to enrage him. He ambiguously stated, “Un… yes.” 

Yu She became furious. His expression turned even colder as he undid the strings holding his cape together and tossed the heavy article off to the side. “It’s good that you aren’t denying it.”

Zhong Wan thought to himself, it’s over, it’s over. Yu She has truly gone crazy this time.

Zhong Wan turned to the side and tried to leave, but Yu She tugged him over by the wrist, so that he was in front of Yu She.

“You…” Zhong Wan tried his best to calm himself down. Holding onto the last bit of hope, he stuttered, “Did you read another strange storybook? About child… childbirth?” 

Upon hearing this, a light flashed in Yu She’s eyes. His voice deepened. “I heard that you feel your bedroom is empty?”

For an instant, Zhong Wan was stunned. Shortly after, his embarrassment became anger. “Have some self respect!”

Yu She scoffed. “Which one of us is lacking in self respect? Don’t you feel empty… I’ve come to spend time with you.”

Yu She was very close to Zhong Wan. As he spoke, his breaths brushed over Zhong Wan’s ear. Zhong Wan ground his teeth together and said, “Young Prince Yu has just barged into an adult man’s room, taken off his clothes, and jumped on the other… Heh, it’s a good thing you’re not a girl. If you were a girl, I would have to marry you.” 

“Take a good look.” Yu She tugged Zhong Wan’s arms up higher, forcing Zhong Wan to become pressed against his chest. “Who is jumping on who? If you were a girl, forget marriage. I probably would’ve already gotten you pregnant, right?”

Zhong Wan was furious. He couldn’t push the other away; instead, Yu She managed to tie his hands together. Yu She stared closely at Zhong Wan. With a smile, he lowered his voice to ask, “Can you… get pregnant?”

Zhong Wan used all his might to struggle against Yu She’s hold. Suddenly, Yu She paused.

He and Zhong Wan were glued together. He could clearly feel whatever reaction the other was having. 

Zhong Wan’s ears instantly flushed red.

Yu She realized something. His expression changed.

Zhong Wan really wanted to find a crevice to burrow into.

What the hell was this?! 

“…” Yu She still hadn’t let go of Zhong Wan. On instinct, he turned his face away so he was no longer looking at the other. This was a way of preventing Zhong Wan from feeling more embarrassed. However, he still said, “Guiyuan, I’ve come to humiliate you. Your reaction… makes things a little difficult for me.”
