Chapter 220 Letter (Husband)
The clansmen who were about to leave paused. What did Feng Han mean by this? Was she trying to diminish their influence?
"What does Your Majesty mean by this?" The old woman in yellow turned around and looked at Feng Han in disbelief.
"It is exactly as you all think!" Feng Han said expressionlessly. She had already found these relatives extremely annoying and wanted to find an excuse to punish them, but unexpectedly they delivered themselves to her doorstep!
After saying that, he gave a wink to the imperial aunt standing to the side.
The imperial aunt understood, stepped forward, and said to the imperial relatives with a fake smile, "My lords, please!"
"Feng Han, even the late emperor wouldn't dare treat us like this, you..." The old woman in yellow was furious.
Unexpectedly, before she could finish speaking, Feng Han interrupted her indifferently, her voice carrying a hint of threat: "Aunt, if I were you, I would never abandon this last shred of dignity!"
The atmosphere at the scene was quite tense. Seeing that Feng Han's expression was unquestionable, the clansmen finally stopped mentioning the previous matter and left in a dejected manner.
After everyone left, Feng Han lowered her gaze and raised her hand to rub her aching brow and temples.
Seeing this, the imperial aunt quickly stepped forward to take over, standing behind him and gently massaging Feng Han's temples with her fingers, secretly complaining to herself that these relatives had no sense of propriety!
After about half an hour, seeing that Feng Han had completely relaxed, the Imperial Aunt finally spoke:
"Your Majesty, there is still a secret letter that we haven't read yet. It was sent back by Lord Lin."
Upon hearing this, Feng Han slowly opened her eyes, picked up the last letter, and looked somewhat uninterested.
After reading it, Feng Han smiled again, then took out half of the tiger tally, handed it to the Imperial Aunt, and instructed her:
"The Grand Preceptor of Nanli is too arrogant! He sent someone to deliver this half of the Zhennan Pass Tiger Tally to Lin Shu;
Another imperial decree is issued: Lin Shu is ordered to remain in Nanli for the time being, to provide appropriate assistance to Nangong Jin! Furthermore, if necessary, the garrison commander of Zhennan Pass must fully cooperate without fail!
"Yes, I will do it right away!" The imperial maidservant respectfully withdrew.
After everyone left, Feng Han dismissed the other servants in the imperial study and looked intently in Nan Li's direction.
Lin Shu, far away in Nanli, was unaware that Zhu Yao's letter had inadvertently given her a helping hand!
Meanwhile, in Fengming Kingdom, at the Lin residence.
The four husbands of the Lin family and Ji Heng were sitting under the shade of a tree in Su Mu's courtyard, playing with the children. Since Lin Shu left, Ji Heng had been visiting the Lin residence every now and then.
Su Mu sat on a stone bench, and a chubby little girl who looked about one year old sat quietly on his lap.
The little girl had long, bright phoenix eyes just like Su Mu's. Her chubby little face was deliberately serious, and her little hands were crossed coolly in front of her chest, letting another chubby boy tease her.
"Suck, suck... Little Ansi, come and chew your teeth!" The chubby Feng Yu sucked his lips like he was teasing a kitten, while handing a chicken bone with all the meat removed to Little Ansi with his greasy hand.
Looking at her increasingly prosperous-looking father, Yu, Xiao Ansi frowned her delicate eyebrows and laboriously turned her head to look at her own father, Su Mu.
Su Mu sighed helplessly, patted An Si's soft hair, and said to Feng Yu, "A Yu, An Si doesn't grind her teeth anymore!"
“Hmm, no grinding.” Xiao Ansi turned to look at Feng Yu and nodded seriously.
Little Ansi is now over a year old and speaks very clearly, but she doesn't like to talk much. She likes to act cool and often has a chubby little face that looks funny and comical.
Li Huanzhi, standing to the side, was very pregnant; his belly was clearly visible even through his extremely loose robes. Fortunately, this pregnancy was relatively easy for him, so it wasn't too difficult for him.
Looking at Feng Yu, who was like a child, and Xiao Ansi, who was like a little adult, she couldn't help but lower her head and chuckle. Seeing Feng Yu reach for the food box on the stone table again, she couldn't help but remind her:
"Ayu, you are not allowed to eat anything today! Don't forget what the doctor said: if you don't watch what you eat now, it will be difficult to give birth when the baby is older!"
"Oh!" the chubby boy answered guiltily, then withdrew his little paws with a regretful look, staring pitifully at the plate of braised pork on the table, which made everyone burst into laughter.
"You always use Xiao Ansi as an excuse to indulge your cravings. Look how fat Xiao Ansi has become!" Song Yun teased without a care in the world while holding Xiao Yizhou across from them.
Little Ansi seemed to understand, and she clenched her little hands even tighter. Her second uncle was so annoying; he always told her she was fat whenever he saw her! Then she turned her little face and looked at her father for help.
With a smile in his eyes, Su Mu whispered something in her ear before calming her down.
"Hahahaha..." Upon seeing this, Song Yun suddenly burst into laughter. Because the laughter was so sudden, the little baby in his arms was startled and hurriedly grabbed his clothes, pouting.
The oblivious Song Yun didn't even notice, still laughing to herself, until—
"Little brother, I'm scared." Xiao Ansi stretched out one of her chubby little hands, pointed at Xiao Yizhou in his arms, and said in a childish voice, pretending to be serious. After speaking, she put her little hand back in.
Song Yun then noticed her son, quickly picked him up and patted him a few times. The little guy was easy to coax, and immediately his dark dog eyes sparkled with happiness, drooling as he buried his head in Song Yun's arms.
"Little Ansi looks somewhat familiar! She has quite a bit of Miss Lin's aloofness!" Ji Heng smiled elegantly, looking at Little Ansi and Little Yizhou with a hint of envy in his eyes, then jokingly added:
"I wonder if Miss Lin was like this when she was a child!"
Little Ansi also turned to look at Su Mu, her eyes filled with a child's innocence and admiration: "Just like Mom!"
Su Mu nodded.
Xiao Ansi is precocious, and Su Mu often talks to her about Lin Shu, so she has an object of admiration and adoration at this age when she is still breastfeeding.
Everyone else present, looking at Xiao Kuansi, couldn't help but imagine Lin Shu as a child...
Only Su Mu glanced at Xiao Ansi's tightly clasped hands and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement:
[This child is clearly afraid of being called fat, so she keeps a straight face and tucks her chubby little hands behind her back. Her pride is so strong; I wonder who she takes after!]
The courtyard was filled with a lively and harmonious atmosphere.
Just then, Yin San, dressed in tight black clothes, stood outside the courtyard, politely knocked on the gate, and called out loudly:
"My lord, my gentlemen, a letter has arrived from our master!"
The conversation inside the courtyard stopped abruptly as soon as he finished speaking.
Several moments later, the commotion subsided again, with the husbands excitedly exclaiming in unison:
"A letter has arrived from my wife/Lin Shu/Miss Lin!!!"
