The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 94
Chap 94
Jing-wang calculated the time left for Xiao Yu’s transformation in his heart. Although they made
a circle around the town, when the carriage was in an area with scarce people, it did increase its
pace.
The carriage driver received a special mission ahead of time. On the day of the wedding, he
needed to be quick, but at the same time, not disturb Jing-wang and wangfei. The carriage driver
had been working for the Jing Estate for quite a number of years. In order to celebrate the fact
that Jing-wang finally found a wangfei to marry, he went all out and specifically practiced a
month for this.
Along the roads, Jing Estate’s guards were responsible for safety. They prevented overly excited
civilians from getting too close. The marriage carriage returned to the Jing Estate peacefully and
smoothly. Then it was time for the wedding ceremony.
The Emperor couldn’t appear for Jing-wang’s big wedding due to the distance. However, it
didn’t hinder the Emperor’s love for bestowing gifts. Wang Xi recited the list of gifts for an
entire hour and still couldn’t finish reading it. The procession that came from the Imperial City
carried gifts that extended from the wedding hall to outside of the Jing Estate.
Not many people actually managed to receive an invitation as esteemed guests to drink the
celebratory wine for this big wedding. Jing-wang didn’t really like events that were too rowdy.
However, this was his wedding with Xiao Yu. Jing-wang didn’t want the wedding hall to be
completely empty. Therefore, he ordered the mayor of the town and some virtuous and reputable
elders locally to attend the wedding as honorable guests. Aunty Xu, who had a pretty good
relationship with Li Yu, also received an invitation. Although the esteemed guests weren’t high
officials or nobility, they still received plenty of blessings.
In the honorary seats of the wedding hall, the imperial edict was placed in the Emperor’s seat;
Empress Xiao Hui’s memorial tablet was placed where she was supposed to sit as well.
The master of ceremonies received a gesture from Jing-wang and was about to start his speech
when a fast horse arrived. Travel-worn, Ye QingHuan hopped off the horse and excitedly rushed
into the wedding hall.
After ChengEn Palace Estate learned about Jing-wang’s big wedding, they had to send someone
to come congratulate him no matter what. Ye-shizi volunteered himself for the task. He also
missed his cousin, whom he has not seen for about a year, very much.
“Tianchi, it’s finally my turn to congratulate you on your big day!” Ye QingHuan patted Jing-
wang’s shoulder with a smile.
On a rare occasion, Jing-wang didn’t smack his hand away. Instead, Jing-wang smiled faintly
and ordered Wang Xi to bring over wine cups, drinking a cup with Ye QingHuan.
After the cup of celebratory wine went down, Ye QingHuan seemed to have become a chatterbox
immediately; plus, Ye-shizi had a stomachful of words he wanted to say anyways.
Back then when Jing-wang left the Imperial City, he once sent a letter to the ChengEn Palace
Estate, wanting them to keep calm and observe the situation quietly for changes. They definitely
shouldn’t plead mercy from the Emperor for Jing-wang on their own accord. Nor should they
need to send private messages to the West frontier. After Jing-wang had left, the only person
who was able to sit still was the Old ChengEn Gong, Ye Qian. Everyone else was all worried for
Jing-wang. Throughout this year, Jing-wang encountered the bandits and plus the locust plague
at the West Frontier. The Emperor even gave Jing-wang’s original assignment at the Ministry of
Works to the 6th Prince. Ye QingHuan almost couldn’t hold back and wanted to beg the
Emperor to let Jing-wang return to the Imperial City.
Fortunately, the Old ChengEn Gong was able to dissuade him promptly, wanting him to believe
in Jing-wang. The Old ChengEn Gong was very perceptive. Jing-wang was currently in a very
delicate situation. If ChengEn Palace Estate stepped forth, it wouldn’t help Jing-wang; instead, it
would turn all of Jing-wang’s previous efforts to waste. Ye QingHuan had no choice but to
continue to wait.
This wait led to the arrival of news that Jing-wang had obtained a title for Li Yu. The Emperor
approved of Jing-wang’s marriage. Ye QingHuan continued to follow Old ChengEn Gong’s
advice and remained quiet. He had seen Li-gongzi before. Not only had he seen the other person,
everyone in the ChengEn Palace Estate all loved Li-gongzi and felt that this was a well matched
marriage. However, Li-gongzi was a man. Therefore, this also meant giving up the throne. How
will Jing-wang pass on his bloodline in the future?
The tight-lipped Ye Qian didn’t actually tell Ye QingHuan that Li Yu had already given Jing-
wang four little sons. Children haven’t been a problem for a long time. Therefore, at the moment,
Ye QingHuan genuinely wanted to comfort Jing-wang.
“Don’t worry. There’s always a way to solve the issue of your offsprings.” Ye QingHuan pulled
Jing-wang to the side and said quietly: “I really shouldn’t be the one saying this to you and
dragging down your mood. However, my dad and my mom have both privately thought about it
for you. The only way for Li-gongzi to avoid criticism in the future is if you had offsprings. If
you don’t want to forsake Li-gongzi, you can always adopt one from inside the clan. There must
be one suitable for you.”
Jing-wang raised an eyebrow, put down his wine cup and shook his head in refusal.
Ye QingHuan: “…….”
Ye QingHuan thought that he was pretty good at understanding Jing-wang and asked
experimentally: “Are…are you unwilling to accept other people’s blood.”
Not only unwilling. Jing-wang nodded his head.
Ye QingHuan: “If you’re really unwilling with others, how about me?”
Ye QingHuan scratched his head and said: “This is my own idea. The Princess is pregnant right
now. I should be able to convince her to give our future second son to you for adoption……
don’t misunderstand. I also don’t want it like this. But if nothing else works, then this is the best
choice.”
Ye QingHuan’s later tone sounded rather tragic, as if he was also reluctant to part from his own
flesh and blood.
Jing-wang: “……”
Jing-wang didn’t know where Ye QingHuan’s thoughts had run off to. He coughed lightly. When
Wang Xi heard it, he immediately had the wet nurse bring the children over.
“Your highness, the little masters are crying terribly. This old servant had no choice but to bring
them to the wedding hall……”
Wang Xi didn’t dare to say that the wet nurse had merely left briefly just now and three of the
four little masters ended up face down, unable to get up, tears almost drowning the room. No
matter how the wet nurses had tried to comfort them, it didn’t work. Wang Xi thought that the
wedding hall was pretty exciting; perhaps the little masters would like it. Therefore, he made the
decision to bring the children over. Who knew that when they saw Jing-wang and wangfei, they
absolutely refused to leave. This must mean that the little masters wanted to watch their daddies
get married.
Jing-wang also wanted to see his sons and indicated Ye QingHuan to come look together with
him.
Completely baffled, Ye QingHuan saw the little infants, each wrapped in a gold, gold mixed with
silver, silver, and black swaddling clothes. They were carried by Wang Xi and a middle-aged
woman.
Who was this and what relation did they have with Jing-wang? Ye QingHuan was completely at
a loss.
Wang Xi said with a full grin: “The little masters insisted on getting dressed like this. The
wetnurse originally wanted to change them into more festive clothes, but they didn’t want it and
started crying immediately.”
Jing-wang nodded his head, not blaming them. Wang Xi didn’t know, but he was well aware: the
colors of the swaddling clothes were the same colors as the fish babies’ individual colors.
Jing-wang accepted Bao#4 from the wetnurse, carrying and patting him in an experienced
manner.
Ye QingHuan’s eyeballs practically flew out from watching this. He couldn’t resist asking:
“Wang Xi, these babies are?
Why would Wang Xi call them ‘little masters’? And why did Jing-wang look so used to holding
them?!
Wang Xi smacked himself on the forehead suddenly and said: “Sorry my lord, excuse me. This
old servant was too happy and forgot to introduce them to you. This is his highness’ children.
Li… wangfei birthed them for his highness.”
Li Yu can birth children??
Struck by lightning, Ye QingHuan slowly, very slowly, turned his head over and stared at the
extremely proud looking Jing-wang.
Wang Xi’s words gave him too much of a shock. Ye QingHuan needed time to digest them.
Li Yu…… birthed four children for Jing-wang?
Men… can also get pregnant?!
Wang Xi had no choice but to simply explain everything to the extremely faint Ye QingHuan.
Although the entire process also made Wang Xi very faint, Jing-wang was the one who stood
guard the entire time, and also there’s proof from the childbirth expert and other physicians to
verify for the four little masters; with all of this, Wang Xi can swear to the heavens that this can’t
be fake.
Ye QingHuan can tell himself. Three of the children looked extremely like Jing-wang when he
was younger. Meanwhile, the one that Jing-wang was holding, looked very much like Li Yu.
If it were fake, then how can they look this real?
……. Wait a second. Ye QingHuan suddenly realized. Here he thought Jing-wang had no
offspring, yet Jing-wang already had four healthy sons.
Meanwhile, he, whose wife was still in a pregnant state, had lost again.
Jing-wang was aware that Ye QingHuan brought up the topic of adoption not to offend, but
because he was worried for Jing-wang. Therefore, Jing-wang didn’t get angry. He only felt Ye
QingHuan was slightly troublesome standing there stupidly. After exchanging some brotherly
pleasantries, he sent Ye-shizi off to go entertain himself.
There wasn’t much time left. They had to complete the wedding ceremony quickly; they couldn’t
miss this auspicious time.
Jing-wang gave an eye gesture to the Master of Ceremonies. The Master of Ceremonies
immediately started his speech.
Wearing the pearl crown, Li Yu didn’t know what was going on because of the hanging
ornaments spilling from the crown over his face. Jing-wang briskly walked over to his side.
“Your highness.” Li Yu called out with a smile.
Jing-wang felt like no matter how much he smiled today, he didn’t get tired. Reaching out his
hand, he wrapped his warm palm around Li Yu’s hand.
As soon as they held hands, the clamorous hall immediately fell quiet and became peaceful.
From the corner of his eyes, Li Yu saw a fire blazer. What’s going on? Did the wangfei have to
jump through the fire blazer?!
He was worried that in his clumsiness, he might knock over the fire blazer. Or perhaps he’d end
up burning the precious wedding outfit. Both didn’t seem very auspicious.
As he hesitated, Jing-wang looped an arm around his waist and lifted him up lightly. Li Yu
suddenly felt both of his feet leaving the ground. His head also blanked at the same time as well.
In a flash, he was placed on the ground, the fire blazer already behind him.
Li Yu’s face was flushed completely red, even the hanging ornaments of the pearl crown
couldn’t hide his embarrassment. In front of the crowd, all out in public, Jing-wang actually
carried him and crossed over the fire blazer.
The wangye was really too romantic. The esteemed guests couldn’t resist laughing out loud
good-naturedly. Ye QingHuan laughed the loudest. The matron of honor following behind them
also couldn’t help but blush.
Finally, it was time for the kneeling ritual.
Li Yu stood by Jing-wang’s side. Together, the two of them sincerely kowtowed towards heaven
and earth, and the seats of the mother and father.
Last, they faced each other respectfully and kowtowed towards each other.
Actually, Jing-wang had already signed the marriage certification with him before. They were
already husband and husband. This big wedding was more to announce to the rest of the world.
The announcement was that, from now on, you only belonged to me and I only belonged to you.
Jing-wang let Wang Xi entertain the guests. He himself accompanied Li Yu back to the bridal
chamber.
He already developed the habit and spent the entire time occasionally glancing at the silver
hourglass. Xiao Yu was about to transform. He needed to guard the other. On their big day, he
can’t let the other feel even a hint of alarm.
The extra people were all cleared out. Jing-wang used the wedding scepter to lift the hanging
ornaments in front of Li Yu’s face. After the two looked at each other for a while, they smiled
unanimously.
Jing-wang reached towards his sleeve. Li Yu watched him expectantly, guessing what kind of
note he’d take out this time. Or perhaps it’d be some other unique gift relating to the big
wedding.
However, Jing-wang didn’t have anything mysterious in his sleeve. Instead, he pulled out a long
tube-like box from behind his sleeve.
Jing-wang opened the box. Inside the box held a painting scroll.
Under Jing-wang’s gaze, Li Yu opened the painting. This was a painting of a school of fishes
drawn by Jing-wang. Two big ones, four small ones. One of the big ones was a fish with a silver
colored base and gold patches; it was the appearance of Li Yu’s fish form. The small ones were
gold, silver, gold with silver mix, and black. It was easy to tell that these were the four fish
babies.
However, something wasn’t right here. Li Yu counted it repeatedly. He and the fish babies
together were only five fishes. Why would there be another big black fish in the painting? Who’s
that?
Li Yu thought for a good while. It wasn’t until Li Yu caught a glimpse of the dark colored robe
under Jing-wang’s wedding outfit that Li Yu realized that Jing-wang drew himself as this big
black fish. This school of fish was clearly a family drawing of the fishes together.
Li Yu really loved this extremely majestic looking big black fish. After looking at it for a while,
he finally reluctantly put the painting away, saying: “Thank you for the present, your highness.”
After gifting the newly wed present, Jing-wang took out the same pair of jade cups that they used
on their consummation day and filled them with green plum wine.
This time Li Yu drank first and mischievously pounced over to transfer it into Jing-wang’s
mouth for him to drink.
The sand in the silver hourglass slowly drained away. The two people’s figures rolled around on
the bed, intertwined closely.
Just as the flames were burning fervently, waves and waves of infants’ wailing traveled over
from the neighboring room in an untimely fashion.
Li Yu, Jing-wang: “…….”
The two people stopped temporarily and looked at each other.
Li Yu was still panting. He pleaded pitifully: “Your… your highness, the kids……”
This was the one inconvenience about being a dad. It’s not like they can only care about their
own fun and not care about the kids.
Resigned, Jing-wang took a moment to calm his breathing and went next door to carry the kids
over.
Bao#1, Bao#2, Bao#3, and Bao#4 had cried so hard their little faces were all scrunched and
wrinkled. They finally managed to be brought to the wedding hall to watch the excitement, but
fish dad didn’t even notice them. Not to mention, after a while, both daddies disappeared off
somewhere. The wetnurse very quickly brought them back again. Lacking comfort from hugs,
even Bao#1, who bragged about being the most well-behaved, was about to explode.
As soon as Jing-wang daddy appeared, the other Baos immediately quieted down. Bao#4, who
was crying too much to stop, accidentally started hiccuping.
Jing-wang shook his head. Each arm holding two, he carried all of the fish babies to the bridal
chamber.
The Baos finally saw their fish dad who was on the newlyweds’ bed and all grabbed fish dad in
unison, wanting to sleep together with him.
Li Yu, who was surrounded in a pile once again: “…….”
Li Yu felt like he did something really stupid. Such a top quality wedding night, gone to waste
just like this. He was just about to apologize to Jing-wang, but Jing-wang had already laid down.
Blinking at him, Jing-wang pulled Li Yu into his embrace.
Like this, even if Li Yu was surrounded by the kids, the two of them were still not separated.
“Your highness, am I too heavy?” Pillowing his head on Jing-wang’s shoulder, Li Yu was afraid
of squishing the person below him.
Jing-wang shook his head and turned the kids’ faces to the other side. He wrapped his arms
around Li Yu’s waist. As Li Yu continued to jabber on and on, Jing-wang kissed him again, and
again.
Li Yu had no choice but to stop talking. Because the kids were right by his side, he couldn’t
make any weird sounds. The two pressed against each other mutually and exchanged loving
kisses on and off intermittently.
They waited until the children all fell asleep, waited until it was time for Li Yu to change back
into fish, and waited until it was midnight to change back once again. No matter how long they
had to wait, they would eventually welcome an intimate moment belonging only to the two of
them, to tear open and devour each other completely.
