Chapter 790: The baby is coming ——2

" Why are you blaming me? Were you, not the one who scolded him for being way out of the line? Now it's good, he is teaching you a lesson, your majesty," The Empress was not someone who was willing to take this heavy blame which was why she immediately rolled her eyes and pushed the blame onto her husband.
Emperor Fei was stunned, he wished to say something to the Empress but when he thought about where he was standing, he turned to look at Chi Su and Chi Wu who was standing in front of him and asked, " At least tell us the name of the expert who grew this rose? Zhen is going to praise them for such a beautiful creation."
" It must be Mrs Lin who else?" With his brother's limited contacts, Fei Yu Ching was able to point out the person who was behind the creation of this multiple-layer rose. Though he was not allowed to enter the greenhouse, he could see the large rose which despite being bigger than the rest still looked rather pretty and what was more its scent was both sweet and tantalising, even the gardener who was in charge of taking care of the rose was crying tears of joy as he clasped his hands and looked at the beauty which he had never seen before.
As Fei Yu Ching looked at the new rose which had never been seen in their country, he couldn't help but praise his brother for his wits, he knew that their family adored flowers and was simply a fanatic for rare flowers especially his father and his mother. For the sake of making them suffer he got his hands on this rare rose and was now torturing them by allowing only his gardener to come close to that flower while stopping them!
' You are really good, Qin Fan.' He scolded his stubborn little brother in his head but at the same time, he already started to plan how he was going to deal with his brother. This rose looked like they could sell it for more than eight hundred silver taels though the price looked exorbitant, this was something that the people of the capital have never seen before what was more there were numerous fanatics who loved flowers in the capital including the Dukes and the prime ministers.
These days he was a bit short on his private funds given that he had to use most of it to clean after his little brother, as he looked at the rose, the cogs in his head started to click and clack as he smiled at Chi Wu who shivered, already aware of the trouble which was going to come his way.
In the end what was going to happen really did happen.
Fei Yu Ching helped Chi Su and Chi Wu by sending his father away along with his mother but instead, he turned to look at the two and said, " This was created by Mrs Lin right?"
What else can Chi Wu and Chi Su do? Lying in front of the imperial family was not allowed which was why they could only nod their heads in response to which Fei Yu Ching smiled and then casually stated, " Qin Fan might have forgotten in his anger but he broke the legs as well as the right arm of the brother of the imperial concubine who found trouble with him though he was not in the wrong… but what he did really ended up creating a lot of trouble for me so you might ask him to pay me back or else…" he did not say anything and simply trailed off leaving his words hanging in the air which caused Chi Su and Chi Wu to stiffen.
'
What the crown prince said was indeed right, the taels which he had to fork out for the sake of suppressing the Duke family were not small, most probably it was almost two thousand taels of gold!
The two guards exchanged a look with each other and then silently sobbed, this…this was the matter between two brothers why were they being dragged into it? This was clearly not the right way to deal with any feud!
But they could not say anything, in the end, they could only write a letter and then have it sent to the Great Ocean City.
By the time the letter arrived at the Great Ocean City, winter had already started, the place was completely deserted and void of life with the mountain ranges which were at a certain height from the ocean covered in nothing but snow.
However, at this moment, a horse was galloping as fast as it could through the snow from the inside of the carriage a woman's moans can be heard as the horse drove past the small village and then arrived at the small house which was bigger than the rest and three men jumped out of the carriage while the tallest one behind him stepped out carrying a woman in his arms.
"It's all right everything will be fine." Lin Jing's forehead was covered in sweat as he carried his wife in his arms. They planned to arrive at this city a month earlier but then their plans got derailed as soon as the snow started to fall even if they wanted to rush ahead at full speed they had to take care of Su Wan who was pregnant thus by the time they arrived at this city three months passed by in a jiffy causing Su Wan's six-month belly to turn into nine months old and the child inside her belly was now eager to rush out.
Lin Yan covered Su Wan with a fox fur jacket as he looked at the house which had been cleaned up by the servants of Lord Fei and headmaster Yuan and sighed in relief at least they will not have to worry about finding a place to lay Su Wan down.
" Argh!" As another contraction hit Su Wan, she screamed in agony as Lin Jing clenched his teeth, he wished he could rush right inside the house but he could jostle the baby or his wife. " Just a bit more… a bit more."
