Wan'er tried her best to coax the annoying man away. Yang Fan's harassment made Wan'er blush, and her body felt a little strange. She quickly lay back on the bed and calmed her heart. She needed a good rest.
The child would be born in half a month. Even though Wan'er's body had always been strong, she became more sleepy than before. Maybe it was because of the pain in her waist from carrying a big belly, or maybe it was because of the hot weather in early summer. In short, she had to take two naps every day to get rid of her fatigue.
Today, she had spent too much time waiting for Yang Fan and Gu Zhuting. After that, she chatted with Yang Fan for so long. At this time, she was really tired and fell asleep after a while. But Wan'er did not sleep for long. Every time, she would just take a nap and wake up in about an hour.
When Wan'er was about to take a nap, she would inform Xiao Miao beforehand. Xiao Miao would then inform the palace maids in the back of the residence to stand guard around the bedroom with bamboo poles to chase away the birds so that they would not make any noise and disturb her rest.
But today, Wan'er had only slept for a while when she heard a sharp and unpleasant cry. Wan'er was woken up by the cry. She raised her head from the pillow and listened. She heard the voice of the sapling outside the window, "Where did this wild cat come from? Kill it. Aiyo, it dares to run away!"
Another palace maid said, "Ah! It climbed the wall. Forget it, just chase it away. This is the cat that the owner of this house raised. It seems to be raised by the chef. After they moved out, this cat stayed. Xiao Qing, don't you often feed it? It's this cat, right? "
The palace maid named Xiao Qing said angrily, "Isn't it? I feed it every day. This stupid cat, it turned its back on me and even wanted to scratch me. It's biting the hand that feeds it."
The sapling giggled. "Didn't you hear its cries? This stupid cat is male. It's in heat. Male cats in heat love to scratch people. Stay away from it in the future. Be careful that it doesn't scratch your face. "
Xiao Qing spat at her in embarrassment, "What are you saying, a cat can molest me?"
Xiao Miao smiled and said, "It's not that I'm molesting you, but this beast likes to attack people when it's in heat. When it's angry, it won't even recognize its own master. Don't expect it to remember your kindness just because you fed it something."
Another palace maid giggled and said, "I think it just thinks you're pretty and thinks you're a female cat. It wants to be a pair with you. Little Qing, I think you should just give in to it!"
"You little wench, talk nonsense, see if I don't tear your mouth off!"
Shu Xiao Miao quickly said, "Alright, you two stop fooling around. Don, don't wake Wan'er."
Shangguan Wan 'er heard it clearly in the room and couldn't help but laugh.
She couldn't help but laugh. She lay back on the pillow and suddenly thought of Yang Fan. Yang Fan had already told her about his painful experience of taking supplements every day. It was reasonable to say that a young and strong man like him, who had not been close to a woman for nearly a year, was already considered to have been a loner for a long time. It was hard for him to endure it, not to mention that he had eaten so many tonics.
Wan 'er couldn't help but chuckle when she thought that her Langjun was also as aggressive as a male cat in heat these days.
In this era, it was normal for men to go to the brothel. It was not only a place for men to have fun, but it was also a place for them to make friends and meet each other. Therefore, even if a man went there openly, his wives and concubines were impeccable. However, the famous Pingkang Lane was not far from Longqing Lane. Langjun was clean and had never been to such a place.
Wan'er's heart was filled with happiness when she thought of how he agreed to her arrangements for the child. Actually, if she really wanted to bring the child back to the Yang family, there would definitely be a way. Yang Fan agreed to her plan. In the end, he was thinking from her point of view and took care of her feelings. She was so lucky to have such a gentle and considerate husband.
Wan'er was no longer sleepy. She lay on the pillow and quietly thought about how good Langjun was. It was like a sweet stream of water slowly flowed into her heart, filling her heart with warmth and happiness …
In the courtyard, after Shu Xiaomiao, Xiao Qing and a few other palace maids had chased away the male cat in heat, they were afraid that it would return. A few of them held bamboo poles and guarded the front and back of the courtyard, on high alert. At this time, Lan Yiqing quickly walked into the courtyard. Aside from Wan 'er's eight personal maids, only Lan Yiqing and Gao Ying were allowed to enter without being notified.
Shu Xiao Miao saw Lan Yiqing and quickly greeted, "Sister Yiqing."
Lan Yiqing said, "Xiao Miao, Princess Anle has arrived and wants to see Sister Wan'er."
Shu Xiao Miao said in surprise, "Princess Anle? She isn't familiar with Sister Wan'er and usually doesn't interact much. What is she doing here? "
Lan Yiqing said, "Who knows what she wants. Maybe she wants to curry favor with Sister Wan'er."
Shu Xiao Miao said, "Sister Wan'er is in such a state, how can she go see her?"
Lan Yiqing said, "But she is a princess. How can we decide for Sister Wan'er? Let's report and let Sister Wan'er decide."
Shu Xiao Miao said, "Sister Wan'er is taking a nap. Tell her to wait."
Li Guo'er was a princess, but Shanghai Wan'er was the number one person in front of the Emperor. The relatives of the emperor were never the closest people to the Emperor. Even the relatives of the emperor had to curry favor with the officials close to the Emperor. Now that the Empress had made the Prince of Luling crown prince, and it didn't seem like he was just a puppet for show this time. The status of the Li royal family had increased, but other than Princess Taiping who was deeply favored by the Empress, Shanghai Wan'er still didn't need to care about the other royal families. Shu Xiao Miao's words were a bit arrogant, but if she really did it, it wasn't a big deal.
Shanghai Wan'er had already faintly heard the conversation between the two from inside the room. She called out, "Yiqing, come in."
Lan Yiqing hurriedly opened the door and entered the room. Shanghai Wan'er had already sat up and asked, "You said An Le is here and wants to see me?"
Lan Yiqing hurriedly repeated what Princess An Le wanted to see Shanghai Wan'er. Shanghai Wan'er couldn't help but frown slightly.
She felt it was strange why Princess An Le wanted to see her. The two of them rarely interacted in the past. Even when Wan'er often left the palace, the people she interacted with were Scribes. Although there were some princesses' wives, because of their age and seniority, the people Wan'er interacted with were completely different from the people Princess An Le interacted with. Why did Princess An Le suddenly come to see her?
Based on Shanghai Wan'er's understanding of An Le, An Le wasn't the kind of woman who pursued everything. It was impossible for her to come to visit just because she didn't lack etiquette. If it was to strengthen the relationship with her, then it was even more impossible for Princess An Le to decide. It could only be the intention of the Li family or the Wu family.
But which family could Princess An Le represent? The Wu family or the Li family? No matter which family, if they wanted to strengthen the relationship with Shanghai Wan'er, with Princess An Le's overly sensitive and unclear identity, she was clearly not the most suitable "envoy" candidate. Then, why did she come?
Lan Yiqing saw her frown and didn't speak for a long time. She couldn't help but ask, "Does Wan'er jiejie really want to see her?"
Wan'er shook her head and said, "How can I see her in my current state? Of course, I can't see her. But... "
Wan'er thought for a while and said, "You go. Just say that I have a minor illness and won't see any guests. I am grateful that Princess An Le came to visit. I will personally visit her another day. Ask her to go back first!"
No matter what Princess An Le's purpose was, since she was already in front of the manor, she should at least see her. Otherwise, it would be impolite and unreasonable. But with Wan'er's current state, she definitely couldn't see her. Even if she had some suspicions, Wan'er didn't believe that she would guess that she was pregnant. As for impoliteness, with her current status, she really didn't care.
Lan Yiqing agreed and quietly retreated. Wan'er raised her head slightly and thought for a long time. She was still full of confusion. She instinctively felt that there must be more to Princess An Le's inexplicable visit today. But she still couldn't figure out Princess An Le's possible purpose.
Ever since she came to Chang'an, there was only one time when she wanted to make a move. She asked Yang Fan to accompany her to Fan Chuan. At that time, Princess An Le hadn't arrived in Chang'an yet. Also, when she visited Fan Chuan, she purposely concealed her name. How could her identity have been exposed? Wan'er would never have thought that the lecher she had punished that day would actually be acquainted with Princess An Le and see through her identity. In Chang'an, there shouldn't be anyone who would recognize her.
Wan'er lay down lightly. The more she thought, the more uneasy she became. She couldn't guess Princess An Le's purpose in coming, but this didn't affect her vigilance. After thinking for a long time, Wan'er called out, "Xiao Miao, come in!"
…
After Princess An Le heard the big secret of Wan'er's pregnancy from Du Wentian, she immediately rushed to Long Qing Lane. She also knew that since she had never interacted with Shanghai Wan'er, her sudden visit would be rather abrupt. But she also knew that with her status as a princess of the Li clan and a daughter-in-law of the Wu clan, unless Shanghai Wan'er truly had some shameful reason, she would never be 'slammed' at the door.
Shangguan Wan'er was extremely powerful in the palace, but she never revealed her edge. She maintained a close yet distant relationship with the Wu clan, the Li clan, the second Zhang clan, and even the Prince of Xiang's various factions. Since she had come to visit, it was best for Shangguan Wan'er to invite her in and entertain her for a moment. This was the most appropriate way of handling matters.
Thus, the proud and arrogant Princess An Le wanted nothing more than to be 'slammed' at the door. If Wan'er refused to see her, she would lose face. This was the result she wanted to see the most. This would prove that Wan'er truly had something to hide, and only then would she be able to continue with her plan.
She got her wish.
Du Wentian had 'begged to be beaten' at Xingjiao Temple, and he had gotten his wish.
Princess An Le had run to Long Qing Lane to 'ask to be slapped', and she had gotten her wish.
Lan Yiqing came out of the rear residence and went straight to the gates of the estate. He cupped his hands to Princess An Le, who was waiting in the carriage, and reported, "My lord has caught a minor illness and is not feeling well. It is not suitable for me to see any guests today. My lord has said that I have troubled Your Highness to visit and that I will visit Your Highness another day. "
Princess An Le couldn't help but be overjoyed at this. Given her usual temper, being treated so coldly would have made her angry and resentful, but at this moment, she was only filled with joy.
An Le faintly smiled. "An Le has come at a bad time. Since this is the case, I will take my leave. Please tell Shangguan My Lord that once my lord has recovered, I will visit again!"
Princess An Le waved her hand, and the maid standing in the carriage let down the bamboo curtain. The coachman cracked his whip and drove two strong green oxen to pull the green oil carriage, and slowly left the estate.
Princess An Le excitedly blew her fist in the carriage. When she heard Du Wentian speak of this matter, she was already seventy percent convinced. Now that Shanghai Wan'er had rudely refused to see her, she was ninety percent sure.
But Princess An Le only felt that she had made a brilliant move. With just a little probing, she had grasped Wan'er's background. She didn't know that Wan'er had always been cautious and alert, and that her sudden visit was also illogical. Just as she was leaving Long Qing Lane, Wan'er had already sent Shu Xiaomiao to inform Yang Fan.
Princess An Le excitedly returned to the Du residence. Wu Chongxun had already returned from the banquet, and when he saw her, he said, "My lady went to visit Shangguan My lord? With my lady's status, why would you condescend to visit him? "
Princess An Le rolled her eyes at him, and snappily said, "What status do I have? Do you think Shangguan Wan'er can enter her eyes? Pfft! "
Wu Chongxun saw that she was unhappy, and quickly smiled, "Ah! Your husband heard that my lady fancied a hundred bird feather dress in the east market today, but it was bought by someone else? My lady, since you like it, then buy it back. It's just a few million, our Wu family... "
Princess An Le put on a brave face and said, "What about our Wu family? Just a few million? You have the nerve to say that, can you afford it? And you are the Crown Prince of Liang Wang, but what do you have compared to your brothers? How much did that old fart of yours allow you to use? Just a few million? You eat the ashes of the grass, and let out light farts! "
There were many palace maids and eunuchs waiting by his side. Wu Chongxun was lectured by his wife in public, and his face alternated between red and white, but he didn't dare to say anything. Princess An Le angrily sat down on the couch, and ordered, "Someone, invite Master Du here."
Wu Chongxun treated Princess An Le as a fairy from heaven, and he hated it when she came in contact with men. When he heard that she wanted to see Du Wentian, he immediately said unhappily, "Why does my lady want to see him? If there's anything, can't you just send someone to give the order?"
"Who asked you to talk so much!"
Princess An Le grabbed the pillow and leaned on it, and put her legs on the couch. Wu Chongxun quickly came forward, and helped her take off her boots, and began to massage her feet with ease.
"Shangguan Wan'er..."
Princess An Le leaned on the pillow, and closed her eyes to think. She secretly sneered, on what basis can she be more honorable than me? Her surname is Shangguan, and my surname is Li. Thinking of the high and mighty Shangguan Wan'er losing her reputation and being beheaded, An Le's heart immediately surged with a strange pleasure.
But when she thought of Yang Fan again, An Le had a feeling of gnashing her teeth. All along, Yang Fan's blunt words had made her angry and hateful. Today, he embarrassed her in Chang'an East City, which made her hate Yang Fan even more. Among all the men she had met, Yang Fan was really the most special one.
She did not understand, with her natural beauty, why Yang Fan could not be infatuated with her like other men. But wasn't the reason why Yang Fan left such a deep impression in her heart because of his uniqueness? She did not care about those who prostrated themselves under her, but she could never forget those who she could not get.
"Damn that Yang Fan!"
Princess An Le secretly cursed, and suddenly thought of the ecstatic scene between her and Yang Fan on Fangzhou's Huangzhu Ridge. Not only was he fit and handsome, but he was also... really powerful! She had only experienced this feeling of ecstasy under Yang Fan's body.
Wu Chongxun gently kneaded her delicate and beautiful snow-white feet in his arms. Thinking back to the blissful feeling she had when she had intercourse with Yang Fan, her heart suddenly became a little moist. An Le twisted her thighs, and her cheeks flushed. Her starry eyes were like silk, and she thought half closed, "I... Should I give him another chance?"
