My Husband Is Not Easy To Mess With. - Chapter 80: Go Work for Me Immediately!
Chapter 80: Go Work for Me Immediately!
Watching her husband become increasingly withered.
After much thought, Du Suilan finally made a decision.
He would let his husband go to the border!
Compared to the husband who was currently submissive to him, who stayed in the capital for his sake, and commanded the army from such a distance, Du Suilan preferred the high-spirited version of him.
“Husband, go to the border.”
After great effort, Du Suilan finally relented.
But on this side.
Nie Yao shook his head: “No need, wife. I’ve already decided to stay in the capital to accompany you. I can only feel slightly at ease after you safely give birth to the baby.”
This reaction made Du Suilan both delighted and worried.
He was happy because he was so important in his husband’s heart, but worried because his husband was deteriorating daily. If he stayed by his side, living in extreme panic day and night, his husband would completely wither away!
No.
I can’t let my husband be like this!
Du Suilan’s eyes hardened, and his tone brooked no argument, “You, go fight for me immediately!”
“I am the Emperor, and I am your wife. You must listen to me!”
If he dared not to listen.
Du Suilan clutched his lower abdomen, “Otherwise, I will take your baby… take your baby… and cry! Cry every day!”
Although he said this, he couldn’t cry at all without the right emotion.
How could Nie Yao not understand his wife?
He said he was scared, but his heart felt no threat at all.
“Hurry up and go!”
Du Suilan proactively helped his husband pack—the delicate wife didn’t understand how to pack anything, so he just stuffed the bag full of banknotes.
It was said that the bank where these notes could be exchanged for silver was opened by his wife himself.
Wife is amazing!
Nie Yao: “Rest assured, wife, I will go.”
Du Suilan: “When are you going?”
Of course, after the wife is safe! Didn’t I just say that?
Although Nie Yao didn’t speak, the expression on his face wasn’t hard to guess.
Du Suilan became frantic: “What do you mean? You were so determined to go to the battlefield before!” He was even going to sneak off behind his back, but now that he offered it, he wouldn’t go?
Du Suilan was angry.
Du Suilan became unreasonable: “Tell me, are you messing with me?”
How would I dare?
Nie Yao had worked overtime for several days and made some detailed arrangements for the border. Plus, with his old father there, even though he was injured, it was fine for him to work for a short while each day.
“Don’t worry, wife. The border can temporarily manage without me. After I see with my own eyes that you are fine, I will take the troops to conquer those two countries and present them to you.”
“Too late!”
Du Suilan put his hands on his hips, showing what he believed to be the most greedy expression, “I want to be Emperor now, a Great Emperor who rules the world!”
Emperor Du, who had a large appetite, declared that the small place of Yu was no longer worthy of him.
He was now a noble Emperor with a baby!
Only by merging all the lands together would he be satisfied.
Du Suilan: “Husband, you wouldn’t let me and the baby suffer hardship, would you? Look at those civil officials outside, constantly clamoring for me to abdicate and commit suicide! I’m so sad!”
If it were his normal self, his wife wouldn’t care about such trivial matters. But now that he was pregnant and his emotions were volatile, Nie Yao couldn’t tell if his sadness was real or fake.
But seeing his wife pouting and pushing him, Nie Yao chose to believe him.
So that night, he chose a few of the most severely outspoken and wicked people to be directly killed and hung on their respective doorsteps.
The warning was potent.
“Husband!!”
At court that day, many people wisely kept silent. Only the Minister of Justice demanded that the culprits be found and severely punished.
Du Suilan told him to do as he pleased.
“This is not enough!” Du Suilan rushed back and urged his husband to hurry up and unify the world. He wanted to be a legitimate, iron-blooded Emperor! “I’ve had enough of this broken palace! Staying here one more day makes me think of the hardships of the past!”
Speaking of this, he was truly sad.
He cried, looking aggrieved.
He lay in his husband’s arms, sobbing.
Du Suilan: “Actually, as long as you’re not here, Husband, I don’t feel like crying at all.”
Such a reason, truly…
Nie Yao couldn’t even argue.
Because his wife was only delicate and soft, occasionally acting spoiled and crying, in front of him. But once he was out of sight, his wife truly was the cold-hearted, iron-blooded Emperor.
“Husband, do you want me to cry?” Du Suilan saw his husband’s attitude finally softening, and he pressed on, “Besides, Husband, you haven’t been to the border for so many years, the terrain and geography must have changed. Don’t you always say these are the keys to victory?”
The capital was separated from the border by thousands of mountains and rivers.
Commanding from here was unsuitable in every respect.
“Husband, you shouldn’t only take care of me, you should also be responsible for the soldiers!” Not true, my husband only needs to be responsible for me!
Du Suilan said a few insincere words and finally persuaded his husband.
To prevent any last-minute changes, the Emperor stuffed the packed bag into his husband’s arms overnight and personally saw him to the door.
“Hurry up and go, Husband, I’ll wait for your good news!”
After saying that, bang!! he heavily closed the palace door, giving his husband no chance to back out.
Nie Yao, holding a heavy bag of tens of thousands of silver notes: “…”
Military provisions are no longer a worry.
But my wife still needs someone to look after him!
That night, Nie Yao went to his father, carefully instructing him on all the things he needed to pay attention to when taking care of his wife, imploring him to take good care of his wife.
“Mhm mhm, I know, I understand… I understand, I understand! You even wrote a book?!”
“Yes, yes, yes, I! WILL! READ! IT!!!”
Qi Hewen was annoyed by his son’s lengthy instructions.
Doesn’t he know how to take care of Lanlan Baby?
He knows very well!
To put his son’s mind at ease for his journey, although he really didn’t want to, Qi Hewen accepted the manual for taking care of Lanlan written by his good son.
It had so many characters; just looking at it made his head hurt.
As soon as Qi Hewen opened it, he tossed it to his attendant, telling him to read it to him.
He was determined to take care of Lanlan Baby and make him plump, white, and healthy!
Leaving the General’s Residence, Nie Yao went to the Prime Minister’s Residence, asking his father-in-law to often check in on the palace, ensuring his wife didn’t eat too much or too wide a variety of food, as his stomach couldn’t handle it.
Compared to his son, who disliked studying, his father-in-law was simply a stellar student.
Even though he didn’t like Nie Yao, he listened attentively to everything he said, and occasionally asked questions about things he didn’t quite understand.
Nie Yao was relieved and imparted all his experience.
It was not until dawn.
He remounted his warhorse and led his subordinates to the border.
The Young General is back!!
After nearly half a month of rapid travel, Nie Yao arrived at the border, covered in dust.
With his remote arrangements beforehand, the Nie Family Army remained composed while dealing with the attack from the State of Yuan. Their past hard training proved useful. Even with the commander only occasionally managing to give instructions, they could defend against the enemy outside the border without too much effort.
But counterattacking was impossible.
After all, the State of Yuan had spent many years recuperating to take down the State of Yu; they still had some tricks up their sleeves.
