The Fulang's Modern Young Husband Chapter 400 Part 2

Qin Hengyi and A-Zuo clashed once more.

Earlier, a few of the Qin family's private soldiers had wondered if the two knew each other. But now, watching Qin Hengyi fight with such vicious fury—as if he wanted to tear his opponent apart piece by piece—they figured they'd been overthinking it.

Qin Hengyi's moves were vicious and relentless. This time, A-Zuo couldn't predict his strikes and was forced to retreat continuously.

The long whip was studded with barbs—getting hit by it was no different from being slashed by a blade. In no time, A-Zuo's armor had cracked open.

Chapter 400

The entire Qin family had joined the army and no longer lived in Hengyang. At the border, Qin soldiers stood guard in layers—so thick they were three deep inside and three deep out.

[里三层外三层 (lǐ sān céng wài sān céng): lit. three layers inside and three layers outside; fig. packed tightly with people on all sides.]

Not far from the border was Yangguan Town, which together with the surrounding villages, housed over ninety thousand people. If the border were breached, Yangguan Town would be the first to fall. So even during a temporary ceasefire, the Qin family didn't dare return to Hengyang—they held the border at all times.

Old Madam Qin said, "If Guaizai were your grandson, and someone sent ten chests of gold bars wanting to buy him from you—would you agree?"

The first part of that sentence made Old General Qin feel pleased for a moment, but the second part made him furious. His face darkened, and he slammed his fist onto the bed with a loud bang, nearly cracking the bedboard, his voice icy: "Anyone who dares—I'll break their legs."

"Well, there you have it," Old Madam Qin said. If that method actually worked, she'd be willing to hand over the entire Qin family fortune.

The wealth the Qin family had accumulated over generations — even the Emperor coveted it, let alone the household of a mere secretariat official.

Old Madam Qin's brothers had been bringing up the adoption matter for years. Later, after she turned them down too many times, they stopped, afraid of annoying her. But in the past two years, seeing her eldest son and his fulang dote so much on Guaizai, and watching them give away both people and shops, her brothers grew anxious. Now they sent letters every few days, their words all circling the same point: a child without blood ties is hard to raise as one's own; better to let a relative benefit than an outsider, since the child would call her "Grandma" anyway.

Chapter 399

Qin Hengxuan looked closely at Meng Ruqing and saw that he truly seemed fine. Relieved, he crouched down and asked playfully: "Grandpa can't. But—has your father actually ever fought a ghost?"

"For real! Guaizai never lies!" Guaizai said very seriously. "That time, a ghost tried to bite Guaizai on the butt and the face. Father chased it away! Father protected Guaizai. Father's the best! Grandpa, you're so big but you can't even fight ghosts—what are gonna do? How are you gonna protect Pretty Uncle? Aiyah! Guaizai gotta figure something out."

During the days he stayed at the Qin residence, whenever he mentioned Fang Zichen, he'd brag endlessly—not only could he fight ghosts, but he could also make all sorts of things, and he'd even flown through the sky before.

The Tyrannical Emperor Reborn Chapter 87 Part 4 (End)

Emperor Jing schemed and plotted. Like Shen Yi, he too got married.

Wang shi was shortsighted and prone to stirring up trouble, but he married her anyway. He took a primary consort and secondary consorts. He had no heart to give, and before the marriages, he made it clear to each woman: he would give them status, nothing more.

If they could accept that, he would marry them. If not, he would not.

Emperor Jing carefully built his alliances. He framed several of his brothers on various pretexts, sometimes even using his own life as a pawn.

The Left Chancellor's wife nearly fell off her seat: "What? That—you must have heard wrong."

"I already asked Lord Gu." The Left Chancellor said, both exasperated and pained: "Guaizai wore it out for a stroll, and the very next morning he couldn't move his neck anymore. Said it hurt."

The moment the gold necklace was brought back, Guaizai was hopping around with joy. He dashed straight to his room, changed into a sleeveless vest, hung the gold chain around his neck, and went out beaming with pride.

The necklace blazed with blinding golden light under the sun.
