The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 127

Chap 127
Li Yu questioned the System, wanting to know stuff related to giving birth in human form, which
was definitely different from fish form.

Before he had experienced stuffing a small pillow into his clothes. However, it was only
pretending and therefore definitely not the same as being pregnant for real. And plus, he was
extremely terrified, what if four daughters came all at once? QQ. After giving birth to all of
them, would his t-t-that place still be fine?

The System was very detailed in explaining the pregnancy and the daughter birthing mission.
Probably because it knew that its host was often unreliable, the System also told Li Yu very
firmly that in human form, he can only give birth to one daughter at a time.

This finally managed to press back Li Yu’s heart, which was about to jump out of his chest.

If it’s only giving birth to one, he was still courageous enough to give it a try. And plus, human
form had its benefits. Currently, they were in the Imperial City, right under the Emperor’s eyes.
Although fish form was convenient and painless, it was pretty dangerous. Even though Jing-
wang always made him feel safe and would definitely make all of the necessary arrangements,
what if the Emperor discovered something. Then it would be a huge catastrophe that would cause
trouble for Jing-wang and the four Baos. However, if he gave birth in human form, the only one
that needed to work hard was him. Jing-wang and the four Baos would all be safe. In addition,
this would perfectly explain away Jing-wang’s previous arrangements at the West Frontier.

Let’s just do it like this. Li Yu thought righteously.

The System taught Li Yu all kinds of common knowledge regarding his pregnancy in human
form. Basically, it was pretty much the same as a regular human pregnancy. It also told him that
giving birth in human form would result in a normal infant immediately, instead of a fish. He
didn’t need to first incubate a fish egg like he did in fish form. The baby also didn’t need to do
any missions to change into a human either. He might have to work hard through the entire
progress, but the child will not encounter any external danger. This was also why Li Yu very
quickly decided on trying this method.

He already confirmed through the System that he was pregnant with a daughter. However, his
human form’s stomach was still very flat. Because it often took humans three months before the
pregnancy started showing, Li Yu was in no hurry.
The last time Li Yu was pregnant, he had hid the pregnancy from the other father, Jing-wang. He
also felt it wasn’t a good idea, so this time, he definitely won’t hide it. As for the Emperor, Li Yu
still hoped to wait a few months before informing him.

As the only Prince the Emperor was focused on currently, Jing-wang was watched by too many
people. Poisoning, assassinations, all was possible. If the news of his pregnancy was revealed
early, Li Yu was worried that someone might get ideas about this unborn child. The novel that he
had transmigrated into was a court intrigue. He didn’t want to make such a careless mistake here.

Li Yu first leaked the news of his pregnancy to Jing-wang. He remembered that when Jing-wang
became a dad for the first time and learned that Li Yu had given birth to fish eggs, his entire
person felt faint. This time, after learning that Li Yu was pregnant with a daughter and will give
birth in human form, Jing-wang was almost swept away by happiness at first. Then, he realized
something wasn’t quite right.

“Xiao Yu, you……” Jing-wang’s questioning gaze landed on Li Yu’s flat abdomen. If he was
pregnant in human form, didn’t that mean he had to experience labor?

Li Yu understood and nodded.

Jing-wang froze briefly. Realizing what a huge sacrifice this was, he held onto Li Yu’s hands
tightly.

Xiao Yu could have given birth easily in fish form, but he was still willing to bear the burden of
labor in human form; Jing-wang extremely moved.

Just who this was for, Jing-wang understood very clearly.

He decided, it’d only be this once. At least before he completely takes control of all power, he
will never let Xiao Yu experience this kind of hardship.

After this, if Xiao Yu wanted to have many little tiny fishes, then he can incubate all of them.

“I won’t let you suffer again.” Jing-wang promised.

Li Yu was also affected by Jing-wang’s emotional state and looked towards him with reddened
eyes.
With this one promise, Li Yu felt that hurting a bit didn’t seem all that bad after all.

Before at the West Frontier, Jing-wang had Li Yu pretend to be pregnant; however, the care that
he provided to Li Yu wasn’t fake at all. Jing-wang was far more understanding of the pregnancy
process than Li Yu himself. After learning that fish was pregnant, he immediately found a
subordinate who was a maternity expert to assess Li Yu’s condition daily.

The unborn daughter was still too small. It was not convenient to reveal to others. However, Li
Yu still had to pay attention to certain restrictions. Other than daily assessments, Jing-wang also
added more servants to take care of him, ordering them to follow Li Yu at all times so Li Yu
didn’t hurt himself by falling or bumping into things.

Afraid that the kids would accidentally spill the secret, they didn’t tell the kids ahead of time.
Previously Li Yu would pick them up and hold them often. Recently, he couldn’t do it. However,
fish dad didn’t ignore the Baos because of this and often played together with them, telling them
stories and teaching them how to conduct themselves with integrity.

Li Yu has heard before that in order to have a smooth second pregnancy, one had to take care of
the emotion states of their older children. Li Yu was afraid that the Baos might feel neglected.

However, from what it looked currently, this wasn’t the case. Li Yu once asked the Baos
experimentally, what if dad gave birth to a little sister for them. Bao#1, Bao#2, Bao#3, and
Bao#4’s eyes all lit up. They all coincidentally recalled the little sister in Uncle Ye’s house at the
same time.

“Want a little sister!” The kids said delightedly.

Since the kids didn’t reject it, Li Yu also let out a breath of relief. In human form, he could only
give birth to one each time. According to his and Jing-wang’s enthusiastic energy, perhaps there
would be even more little sisters and brothers appearing in the future, who knows.

Li Yu had already started raising the unborn child. Other than waiting for news from the
Emperor, Jing-wang also started to investigate the assassin from JingTai Palace. It’s not like
Jing-wang hasn’t investigated this before. However, because he didn’t search in the right
direction, it didn’t yield any useful results. Now with Li Yu’s reminder, Jing-wang realized that
this force behind the scene could also be the person who had poisoned him. The two of them had
already surmised that the Snow Crow came from Lou Lan. Jing-wang found many ancient books
regarding Lou Lan to read. He actually discovered a suspicious record from a history book about
Lou Lan.
“The people of Lou Lan were good at battle and poison. When two armies faced off, they often
made sure that not even the corpse of their enemies remained.”

Although this history book did not mention in detail how the people of Lou Lan did such a thing,
however, according to the descriptions, it seemed to correlate with the corpse dissolving liquid.

Xiao Yu was originally the one who gave the water the name of corpse dissolving liquid. Jing-
wang felt it sounded about right and started using it himself as well.

After discovering this clue in the history book, Jing-wang leaned even more towards Xiao Yu’s
conclusion. There really was a possibility that a certain force was causing all of the troubles.

In the history book about Lou Lan, it also recorded the life of the last ruler of Lou Lan, King
ChangAn. King ChangAn had angered the Emperor. The two nations became hostile. Although
the people of Lou Lan were good at battle, they were still only a small nation and couldn’t
withstand the current nation’s cavalry. King ChangAn stubbornly resisted and held on until the
very end. He was captured alive by the head military general of this nation and transported back
to the Imperial City.

At that time, the Emperor was young and in the prime of his life. In facing enemy captives, he
wasn’t merciful. In order to keep his life, King ChangAn had no choice but to sacrifice his
daughter to become the Emperor’s wife in exchange for his own freedom.

While Jing-wang was reading about the history of Lou Lan, Li Yu was also accompanying him
in the study, providing prenatal education to their little daughter. Jing-wang spoiled him and
allowed him to do whatever he wanted. If Xiao Yu got tired then Jing-wang allowed him to sleep
leaning against himself. The little daughter was not even a few days and not even the size of a
ball in fish dad’s stomach. Doing prenatal education at this time only educated the fish dad
himself.

The book about the history of Lou Lan was rather filled with twists and suspense. For once, Li
Yu didn’t fall asleep.

Li Yu also saw the subsequent record. In addition, he found a brush and drew a heavy mark
around it.

The Emperor really did have a foreign concubine before.
However, currently inside the harem, there was no one who fitted this description.

What did this mean?

If a concubine had disappeared, it either meant she died or she was banished.

Li Yu remembered when he had mentioned foreigners back then, the Emperor seemed to look
thoughtful.

If all of this were really related to the already extinct Lou Lan, perhaps the Emperor remembered
this Lou Lan concubine from the past?

But the Emperor didn’t say anything at all.

Actually if they wanted to know information about one of the Emperor’s concubines, they could
also ask head manager Luo.

However unfortunately, head manager Luo went to investigate the culprit behind the poisoning
for the Emperor and still hasn’t returned to the palace.

Li Yu originally planned to wait until head manager Luo came back to find out. If there’s no
time, perhaps he could ask someone else.

Jing-wang raised his head, a flash of brilliance flitted across his eyes.

There was an unknown force inside the Imperial Palace. They should find out the truth as soon as
possible. The assassin from JingTai Palace had miscalculated and failed to return. The opposition
most likely have realized that they’ve been discovered.

This was an opponent that was even more troublesome than several princes combine. It was hard
to say what they will do next.

Late at night.

Following Jing-wang’s orders, Jing-wang’s guards brought back a person in a black bag, a
woman whose eyes were covered.
Jing-wang ordered Wang Xi to take off the covering from this woman’s eyes.

This woman was dressed in a worn palace outfit. When she first saw the light, she narrowed her
eyes slightly from discomfort. Discovering that it was surprisingly Jing-wang standing before
her, she gave a cold laugh.

“What did you bring me here for!” The woman said, looking at Jing-wang with extreme hostility.

Li Yu was protected by Jing-wang and standing further away. Seeing this woman’s face and
posture, he only felt she was somewhat familiar. For a second, he couldn’t recall who this was.

Until a “meow” sound came out of the cloth bag. A cat rolled out. A guard to the side hastily said
that they didn’t know how the cat had jumped inside. Li Yu looked at the matted fur of this cat,
so dirty it was hard to discern its original color. Then he saw the handkerchief in the woman’s
hands that had crab-apples on it and suddenly figured it out.

This was the Guifei-niangniang from before who wanted to drink carp soup for her birthday,
Qiu-shi!

And this cat was the enemy that Li Yu had encountered when he first transmigrated– Piao Xue.

Wasn’t Qiu-shi inside the cold palace? Why did Jing-wang order someone to bring her out
secretly?

Li Yu nudged Jing-wang’s arm, expressing his confusion.

Jing-wang still couldn’t reveal that he had already completely recovered from being unable to
speak. He ordered Wang Xi to ask the questions for him.

Wang Xi opened his mouth and said: “Qiu-shi, my prince has something to ask you. Try to be
smart and answer the questions. If you try to play any tricks…… his highness can take you out
without anyone knowing, he can also send you back without anyone knowing– carried back!”

Qiu-shi hated Jing-wang from the bottom of her heart and didn’t want to answer. However, she
was already in Jing-wang’s hands so she didn’t have any other choice. Maliciously glaring at
Jing-wang, she said: “Just what do you want to know?”
Jing-wang glanced at Wang Xi. Wang Xi said: “The Emperor had a concubine from Lou Lan.”

Qiu-shi was briefly stunned. Then she smiled smugly: “That person had died a long time ago.
Why are you asking about her?”

Wang Xi said scoldingly: “Just say what his highness wants you to say. Stop wasting time!”

Jing-wang’s thought was, other than head manager Luo, one of those older concubines who
accompanied the Emperor for a while must know the concubine from Lou Lan.

It wasn’t convenient for Jing-wang to ask other people, except Qiu-shi. Qiu-sh had her rank
removed by the Emperor and then was sent to the Cold Palace. If Jing-wang wanted to see her,
he had his ways.

“You’re asking about Concubine Mei?”

If Jing-wang were asking about anyone else, Qiu-shi might not have been able to answer.
However, she knew this person. What was recorded in history was that King ChangAn presented
his daughter to the Emperor. This daughter had the countenance of a flower and a face like the
moon. After she entered the Imperial Palace, the Emperor bestowed her a special title of Royal
Concubine Mei.

Li Yu’s eyes flashed. Concubine Mei’s title had a plum in it. Meanwhile, those assassins also
had an image of a plum blossom on their sword handles. Was this only a coincidence?

Seeing how the Emperor had given this woman the title Royal Concubine, he seemed to have
taken a liking to this Concubine Mei. Even Qiu-shi herself, who became unparalleled later on,
never received this kind of title.

However, Concubine Mei did not think so. Given to the Emperor by her own father, King
ChangAn, she was unwilling to enter the Imperial Palace in the first place. Therefore, three days
after entering the palace, she attempted to kill the Emperor. The Emperor had bestowed her death
by suicide.

Because of this, the Emperor deeply felt that having disloyal bed partners was a very dangerous
thing. Henceforth, he never accepted foreign concubines. In addition, because of this, he also
took his anger out on King ChangAn. King ChangAn was originally demoted so much that he
was hardly the lowest of the nobility. Because of Concubine Mei, all of the royal members of
Lou Lan entered the record of slaves.

Concubine Mei’s story was very short, only taking a few words to explain completely. However,
Qiu-shi remained where she stood after she finished.

Jing-wang ordered the guards to send Qiu-shi back to the Cold Palace. Qiu-shi grinded her teeth
and knelt down.

“I already told you everything I know. Can you agree to do one thing for me?”

Jing-wang looked at her and allowed her to continue to speak.

Li Yu thought Qiu-shi was going to take the opportunity to ask Jing-wang to let her leave the
Imperial Palace. Living in the Cold Palace was really intolerable. Yet unexpectedly, Qiu-shi
pointed at Piao Xue to the side and said quietly: “You can do whatever you want with this cat. I
don’t want it anymore.”

Li Yu, Jing-wang: “……”

Saying this, Qiu-shi got into the cloth bag herself. Her cat was just about to follow as well, but
Qiu-shi didn’t give it any chance and started swearing at the cat.

Piao Xue seemed to have been scolded often. After Qiu-shi yelled at it a few times, it didn’t dare
to move.

When it finally raised its head again, it discovered that its master had already disappeared.

Piao Xue howled tragically. It waited for quite a while, but ultimately, Qiu-shi didn’t return.

What should they do about this cat?

Before Li Yu had been captured in Piao Xue’s mouth in his fish form. At that time, he had just
transmigrated into the novel and didn’t know what was going on yet. Because fish and cats were
natural enemies, he didn’t have a good impression of Piao Xue.
If it were some other little animal, perhaps he would have immediately decided to kept it. What
exactly did Qiu-shi mean by this?

“TianChi, can I……”

In the end, Piao Xue was only a cat. It really didn’t do anything excessively malicious.

Li Yu was somewhat hesitant about this decision. Other than offending him in the past, Piao Xue
also offended Jing-wang too. Would Jing-wang agree?
