Chapter 115 – Inspection Tour, Part 3

Lin Jia Bao carefully brought in a large bowl of chicken soup and fed Xuan Yuan Han Cheng with a spoon. “Husband, drink some more and get better soon, okay?”

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng drank half of it and pushed it back towards Jia Bao. “You should drink some too. You’ve worked hard these past two days.”

“I’ve already drunk some. Husband, you should drink it…” In the end, they passed the bowl back and forth, one spoonful for you and one spoonful for me, until the large bowl of chicken soup was finished between the two of them.

“By the way, did Aunt Wang call you Lin Yuan Er just now?” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng suddenly asked.

“En, I thought it would be better to use a pseudonym, and ended up saying this name.” Lin Jia Bao said proudly.

“Silly. Wouldn’t that make your husband a cheater?” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng pinched his darling’s little nose.

“Haha, Husband is not like that!” Lin Jia Bao laughed.

Over the next two days, Lin Jia Bao continued to make snacks for the wealthy households in the village, and finally managed to earn enough money for their travel fare. By then, the wound on Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s shoulder was mostly healed, so Lin Jia Bao made an appointment with the village’s expert cart-driver to take them to Jiang Province the following morning.

Early the next morning, Lin Jia Bao and Xuan Yuan Han Cheng gave thanks to the Wang family for their hospitality before setting off on the road. Aunt Wang even prepared some dry rations for their journey.

Lin Jia Bao looked at the small mountain village where he had lived for the past few days and he suddenly felt a little reluctant to let go of the days when he could boldly and publicly call Xuan Yuan Han Cheng his husband. Noticing his darling’s gloomy mood, Xuan Yuan Han Cheng hugged him with his uninjured hand.

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng spoke into Jia Bao’s ear, “Don’t be sad, darling. When we return, this husband will send someone back to properly thank them.”

“Oh, look at that, you two are so intimate. I bet you’re newlyweds.” The middle-aged carriage driver said. “I remember when my wife and I used to be like that. We were so intimate every single day. Alas, it’s good to be young.”

The man driving the carriage was very talkative, “I heard that you are distant relatives of the Wang family. Are you going to Jiang Province to visit relatives?”

“Yes, we are.” Lin Jia Bao answered the coachman.

The man looked at Xuan Yuan Han Cheng and asked, “Such a stately young man. What do you do for a living? Do any handiwork?”

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng didn’t answer. Lin Jia Bao thought for a moment and said, “My husband doesn’t earn a living… and he doesn’t do manual work.”

When the man heard this, he started talking up a storm again. He said earnestly to Xuan Yuan Han Cheng, “Young man, ah, even though you married a ger you can’t treat him badly. I heard that your ger is very skilled with his hands, but a big man like you can’t be a loafer and depend on your ger to provide for you! It’s unacceptable for you to eat soft rice*…”

[*T/N: “eat soft rice” or “soft rice man” = usually refers to a man who doesn’t work and depends on his (female) partner to provide everything for him. It’s not exactly like a sugar baby, because a man who eats soft rice is supposedly in an equal relationship with his partner, whereas a true sugar baby would have less power in the relationship]

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s face darkened considerably after hearing this. Lin Jia Bao didn’t quite understand and said doubtfully, “My husband is still healing. He cannot eat very hard foods, otherwise it will affect his healing process.”

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this…

All throughout the journey, the coachman kept talking to Xuan Yuan Han Cheng about the evils of eating soft rice. Eventually, they arrived in Jiang Province.

When a small group of soldiers passed by, Xuan Yuan Han Cheng saw the leader and immediately shouted, “Cao Yan!”

The leader of the group was General Cao Yan. These past few days, he has been extremely tense. His Royal Highness and Lin-cejun disappeared in the Jiang Province Canal. This news made them and the Jiang Province officials very anxious. If anything happened to His Royal Highness and his entourage, then their little lives would be at risk…

On the day of the incident, as soon as Cao Yan got the report from Yuan Fu, he immediately sent people out to search in all the tributaries of the Jiang Province Canal. However, they found nothing in the past few days.

Cao Yan thought of how he had already sent a letter of humble apology back to the capital and he anticipated that the emperor would be greatly anger over the news. When the Son of Heaven was angry, corpses would surely line the streets…

When Cao Yan heard the crown prince’s voice, he immediately turned around to follow the sound. Upon seeing His Royal Highness, he said excitedly, “Your Royal Highness! It’s great to see that you are okay.” Cao Yan immediately dismounted from his horse and bowed to the crown prince and Lin-cejun.

As soon as Cao Yan knelt down, the soldiers behind him also knelt down. “Greetings to His Royal Highness the crown prince! Greetings to Lin-cejun!” Upon realizing what was going on, the common folk in the vicinity also knelt down.

The coachman was dumbfounded. He followed everyone’s lead and got down on the ground while his body trembled all over. Internally, he was freaking out. The guy that he had pegged as a soft rice man was actually the crown prince!

The author has something to say:

Meow Meow: I’m so scared. =^-^=

Crown Prince: Arrange a boat scene for my darling and me right away and I will forgive you.

Meow Meow: I already wrote the boat scene!

Crown Prince snorts coldly: Don’t pretend to be stupid!

Meow Meow: Bed scene or boat scene? Please enunciate your words, Your Royal Highness ~\(▽≦)/~

Crown Prince glares murderously.

Meow Meow: Okay, okay, whether it’s bed scene or boat scene, I’ll make it happen. =^-^=
