Shura stared at Qifei in shock, "Wife, you actually want me to go to a place like that?"
His face was full of hurt. "Don't you like me at all?"
So it doesn't matter to me where I go?
I see……"
At this moment, Shura looked just like an abandoned puppy, his whole body drooping.
It's as if all the energy has been drained away, leaving no vitality.
Qi Fei chuckled and grabbed his face with both hands. "What are you saying? Even if you can't refuse, once you get to a place like that, you can just sneak away."
If they ask, just say I'll have someone bring him back for you.
However, this will make you appear as someone who is afraid of his wife in their eyes.
I don't care what they think of me, but can you?
Shura, who had been listless, immediately perked up and nuzzled against Qifei, saying, "I don't care."
And how can that be considered being afraid of one's wife?
I respect my wife very much, and we have a harmonious marriage.
Others might want it, but that's not allowed.
Qifei giggled twice as Xiu Luo rubbed against her, making her feel itchy.
"If you really become an official in the future, there will likely be many things you can't avoid in the officialdom."
Such places of entertainment would definitely be involved.
At that time, you can't be a loner, but you must remember one thing.
Qi Fei looked at Xiu Luo and said seriously, "If it's just drinking and chatting, I won't ask. But if you do anything, don't blame me for turning my back on you."
Upon hearing Qi Fei's words, Xiu Luo was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "I will obey your orders, my lady. Don't worry, if I do anything to wrong you, may I never have a good end for all eternity."
Qifei's belly grew bigger every day, and Shura was terrified every time he looked at it.
He looked at Qifei with worry, "Wife, is there really no danger? How can I leave in peace if you're like this?"
The imperial examination was approaching, and he needed to go to the capital ahead of time.
However, Qifei's large pregnant belly was a real worry for him.
Qifei touched her belly, where the baby was moving around happily, and a small bulge was sticking out on her belly.
"It's alright, Mother has already found a midwife," Qi Fei reassured her. She was currently carrying three babies, so the largest one was quite alarming.
Now, the three are no longer a big problem for her, and she doesn't need to be as careful as she used to be.
Her demonic power has recovered considerably, enough to ensure that all children can be born safely.
"But you, you must be careful this time when you go to the capital."
Although we have enough to eat and wear, we can't be too careful. You can't trust everyone.
Before the exam rankings are released, everyone is a competitor.
At this point, taking the exam is like a thousand soldiers trying to cross a single-plank bridge.
"If you can hide your shortcomings, then hide them; everything will be revealed during the exam."
Who knows who might have bad intentions?
If someone is jealous of one's talent, they might resort to any means to eliminate a powerful rival.
"My wife, don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing." Shura understood what Qifei meant; he naturally knew that some people's methods were not honorable.
More than that, he was concerned about whether Qifei could give birth smoothly.
He'll definitely still be in Beijing when the child is born and won't be able to come back.
"Don't worry, even if you're not here, your father and mother are here too."
"My husband, as long as you do well in your exams, and you pass with flying colors, and our child is born, we'll have double the joy."
"Alright, my wife, don't worry, wait for my good news."
Shura, accompanied by his servants, once again embarked on the journey to the capital.
It's a long way from the capital, taking at least half a month to get there.
We left even earlier than when we went to Fuzhou last time.
To prevent himself from getting sick from the change in environment, Shura left a month in advance.
They should be able to rest and recuperate in the capital for at least half a month.
The only good thing is that Qifei's family owns a house in the capital.
Although the location isn't in a great spot, it's still decent. It's not too far from the Imperial College, and it only takes about 15 minutes to walk to the Examination Hall.
After Shura left, Qifei became even more reluctant to move around.
As the pregnancy progressed, her belly swelled up like a balloon, making even someone like Qifei, who had given birth before, feel uneasy, worried that she might bump into something.
Not only were twice as many people assigned to the courtyard, but two more midwives were also hired.
Just after Shura stepped into the examination hall, Qifei also activated her attack.
As the third child, even with Qifei's use of demonic power to nourish her, she still came out earlier than the firstborn.
The birth went smoothly; with only minor assistance from the midwife, the three babies emerged one after another, like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
Qifei's father twitched his mustache, grinning from ear to ear.
All three were chubby boys, which made Qifei's father, who had no sons, very proud.
All the servants in the mansion received triple their monthly wages, which made everyone very happy.
The good news was rushed to the capital, but Shura wouldn't receive it for a while.
The journey was long, and before the message arrived, his palace examination results came out.
A young man who ranked third in the imperial examinations.
The emperor originally intended to appoint the top scholar, but upon learning that he was already married, he regretfully appointed someone else instead.
In this dynasty, the top scholar in the imperial examination had to be unmarried.
The reason for this was that, generally, the top scholar in the imperial examinations would marry a princess.
This was also a balancing act by the emperor.
There is no rule in this dynasty that a prince consort cannot do anything; being able to marry a princess is a glorious thing for one's ancestors.
The fact that Shura revealed he had a wife and children in the Golden Palace broke the hearts of the women in the capital.
The annual imperial examinations were always a good time to find a husband.
Shura's appearance was outstanding among all the examinees, so naturally he attracted a lot of attention.
The young ladies of the capital had also secretly seen what Shura looked like, and many of them secretly fell in love with him.
In the vast capital city, there was no shortage of officials, and princes and nobles were everywhere.
"What wife and children? I don't care, I'm going to marry him."
A girl in a green dress tugged at a man and said coquettishly, "Father, you are the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, and you also admire Young Master Xiu's talent."
The woman he married must have been some rural country bumpkin.
Where would there be any feelings?
It's normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines.
I don't care that he was married before.
It's his good fortune that I've taken a liking to him. Father, go and talk to him.
Or arrange for him to see his daughter; he'll definitely be willing to divorce his ex-wife then.
The girl was very confident in herself. Although she wasn't the most beautiful in the capital, she was still considered quite attractive.
Moreover, she is the legitimate daughter of the current prime minister's family, a noble status that many people would rather not be able to attain.
Anyone with eyes can tell which one to choose.
“My dear, if he divorces his first wife because of you…”
One day, someone else might abandon you.
The prime minister, however, was not blinded by greed. He stroked his beard and spoke earnestly to the young woman.
