Ying Ziyu transmigrated. A purple lightning strike caused him to become Qin Shi Huang's nineteenth son.
It was a hellish start. Just after birth, a treacherous minister planned to swap hi...
Zhao looked at the little one, her gaze filled with surprise and doubt. "Yu'er, is what you said true?"
She had heard some news about the little guy's unusual affairs during her stay in the palace these past few days, but she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, so she was still a little uneasy.
Jin Yan's expression also turned serious. "Your aunt takes this matter very seriously, so you can't say anything carelessly."
He was well aware of Zhao's longing for a child, and sometimes she would feel sad and heartbroken. What he feared most in this situation was giving hope only to watch it be shattered.
This had a tremendous impact on the Zhao family.
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhao quickly replied, "Even if it doesn't work, it's alright. I want to give it a try."
Although I'm not absolutely certain about the little one, as long as I try, there's hope; if I don't try, there's no hope at all.
So even now, facing uncertainty, she is still prepared for disappointment.
The little guy said, "On this trip, you should head towards Mount Taibai. There is a temple there. If you go in and pray for a child, your wish will be granted."
Upon hearing this, Zhao's expression became quite excited. "Really?"
The little guy added, "Boys and girls are both fine, and twins are also an option, those are very effective temples."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yan's expression changed slightly. "Is it really that miraculous?"
He had heard much about ghosts and spirits, and knew that the world was not as simple as it seemed.
But as for having personally experienced it, he had never had such an experience before. After all, he had been in business for many years and had never had the opportunity to come into contact with those strange things.
Consort Shu stepped forward and said, “Since Yu’er has said so, let’s give it a try. Although this boy is mischievous, he has always been honest and is not the kind of person who would make empty boasts.”
The Jin Yan couple may not know how capable the little guy is, but Consort Shu knows very well and naturally trusts him.
The little one also said, "As long as I do what I say and become your aunt, you'll definitely have children, and twins at that!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao's expression changed slightly. "Twins?"
She longed to have children with Jin Yan so much that she would be overjoyed if she could have twins.
Now that such an opportunity is right in front of her, it would be a lie to say she's not tempted.
Knowing Zhao's desire, Jin Yan looked at her and said, "Since that's the case, let's give it a try. Yu'er is a lucky star, so what she says is definitely credible."
The little guy seemed to have thought of something and said, "But a simple prayer is not enough; we also need to prepare special offerings."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yan's gaze hardened. "It's alright. Just tell me what jade you need. Even rare treasures will be obtained by my own means."
He was willing to go bankrupt just to fulfill Zhao's wish.
The little guy's eyes were indifferent. "That's not necessary. Although the offerings are special, they're not very expensive. My uncle is always away doing business, so he can definitely get them."
"I'll write it down on paper later. Uncle will definitely have no problem following these instructions."
Jin Yan nodded slightly, "That's very good."
But then, as if he had just thought of something, he frowned slightly. "But if that's the case, then our original itinerary won't work."
In order to reach their destination as quickly as possible, they had planned their route well in advance, but it bypassed Mount Taibai.
If you have to go through there, the detour will be quite long, and it might take an extra month or two to reach your destination.
Upon hearing this, Consort Shu's expression changed slightly.
In that case, wouldn't the elder brother be able to avoid that tragedy?
She remembered the little guy saying that it was because Iron Hammer led them into the den of thieves that Jin Yan's family was destroyed.
If we change our route now, then we won't have to go into the thieves' den.
As she pondered, she looked at the little one with a look of great satisfaction.
Your mother has been loving you all along for a reason; you even know how to help your uncle's family.
Zhao frowned slightly as she looked at Jin Yan. "Is this alright?"
Although she longed for a child, she was also a reasonable person and wouldn't make things difficult for Jin Yan regarding matters he valued.
It was precisely because of her understanding nature that she was so beloved by Jin Yan.
Upon hearing this, Jin Yan looked at her and said, "It's alright, I'll handle it."
He naturally couldn't bear to see Zhao's hopes, which had just been ignited, shattered in the blink of an eye.
After confirming the matter, Zhao was so excited that she barely ate a few bites of food.
Jin Yan ate a little something and then prepared to set off.
He knew very well how anxious Zhao was, so it was best to set off as soon as possible to put her at ease.
A long procession of carriages stood outside the palace. A dark-skinned middle-aged man walked up to Jin Yan and said respectfully, "Master, everything is ready."
Jin Yan nodded slightly. "Get ready, head south. I'm going to Taibai."
Upon hearing this, Iron Hammer's expression changed slightly. "Master, are you changing your itinerary?"
Jin Yan said, "I have important business to attend to there."
Hammer frowned. "But if we change the itinerary so abruptly, we won't be able to arrive on time, and we'll lose a lot of business."
This would result in a significant financial loss, which is unacceptable to business people.
More importantly, his plan could not be implemented normally.
Jin Yan's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at Tie Chui, his amiable attitude towards Consort Shu and the little one completely changed, replaced by an air of authority. "Go and prepare."
He was the master, so naturally he didn't need to explain much to Iron Hammer.
Upon hearing this, Tiechui bowed and dared not say anything more, so he could only silently retreat.
Zhao looked at the little one with a smile, "When your aunt gives birth, I'll give you a big red envelope when we get back!"
Jin Yan also said, "Is there anything you want, Yu'er? Your uncle will bring it back as a gift for you."
The little one blinked his big eyes and said, "I like whatever my uncle and aunt give me."
One sentence made the Jin Yan couple laugh non-stop.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two boarded their carriage and left.
The little guy's eyes darkened slightly as he watched the departing group.
Looks like this guy can't be kept alive!
Consort Shu also looked coldly in the direction of the hammer, her eyes hiding an unusual chill.
Her eyes flickered slightly upon hearing the sound.
No wonder he's such a good son, so in sync with the cross-dresser.
Consort Shu naturally despised Tie Chui, who repaid kindness with enmity.
The little one suddenly looked at Consort Shu and said, "Mother, I want to go to Father's place."
Consort Shu's gaze softened again. "Go ahead, Mother has something to take care of too."
