Marrying a Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the

She nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I want to eat shredded chicken noodles. It will be even better with more chili!"

Lin Su quickly stopped him: "That won't do. You still have to feed Sanbao. If you eat spicy food, she will get a sore throat!"

Lin Yiwan slapped her forehead, wondering how she could have forgotten about this.

She is also breastfeeding now and needs to pay special attention to her diet.

Lin Su ordered someone to bring two bowls of shredded chicken noodles to the two of them, and both of them were very satisfied with the meal.

Zhan Yan even cleaned up all the food that Lin Yiwan didn't like to eat, leaving not even a bit of soup.

Prince Li, standing nearby, sarcastically remarked, "If it were you, he should have been starved. That way, he wouldn't be so full that he'd spend the whole day pestering Wanwan instead of doing his job!"

Zhan Yan argued seriously: "Father, why haven't I done my job properly? I went to the palace today, and the emperor gave me a new task, asking me to receive old Prince Jing!"

Prince Li's expression suddenly darkened: "Did you answer it?"

Zhan Yan nodded: "Yes, the emperor said that he trusts me the most and that he is most confident in my ability to do things. He also said that he would support me and cover any mistakes I make!"

Prince Li threw the collection of poems on the table and said, "Wanwan, why don't you take the children and divorce him immediately? How could such a smart person suddenly become stupid? Everyone knows this is a hot potato, but he still took it so eagerly. Emperor Sheng'an, that little fox, is setting him up for dead!"

Zhan Yan really didn't expect King Li to have such a big reaction. After thinking about it, he still didn't think there was anything wrong with taking on this task.

Prince Li poked him in the head, feeling disappointed. "They say women become stupid for three years after giving birth, but you haven't given birth yet, so why are you so stupid? Can't you see why old Prince Jing returned to the capital?"

Lin Yiwan felt distressed when she saw him being poked.

She whispered, "Father, please stop scolding him. Analyze the pros and cons with him and see if we can return this job to the Emperor."

Prince Li waved his hand: "That's definitely not possible. Emperor Sheng'an is a little fox. He is very cunning. He won't take it back no matter what he says!"

Zhan Yan said, "Father, just tell me. As long as I want to hand it over, I will definitely find a way to make the emperor revoke his order!"

Prince Li glared at him, then slowly spoke: "Old Prince Jing has returned to the capital this time. Do you know where he wants to bury his deceased wife?"

Zhan Yan asked doubtfully, "Where?"

King Li replied, "The southeast is the most honorable place. He chose Mount Licui, on the outskirts of Beijing, as the Mohist burial site!"

Zhan Yan frowned immediately. Isn’t that where the dragon vein is?

The Mohists really have bad intentions this time!

Prince Li pondered, "Since you've accepted this mission, if you don't stop old Prince Jing, you'll inevitably become a sinner in the Sheng Dynasty royal family. If you insist on stopping him, you'll surely be hated by the people of Jingcheng. After all, the Princess of Jing is extremely prestigious in Jingcheng. Don't you think this is a lose-lose situation?"

Zhan Yan took a deep breath. He was fooled by Emperor Sheng An.

After a moment, he figured it out again. Emperor Sheng An must have had no other choice but to set a trap for him.

He is the king and he is the minister!

Even if he knew these hidden secrets from the beginning, he still couldn't shirk his responsibilities.

He was the first to speak: "Licui Mountain is a dragon vein and must not be touched. Once old Prince Jing enters the capital, I will definitely make him change his mind!"

Prince Li raised his eyebrows in surprise: "What do you have in mind?"

Zhan Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "Wouldn't it be enough to make old Prince Jing give up his idea by turning Li Cui Mountain into a place of great danger?"

Prince Li was stunned at first, then he revealed a cold smile: "It seems that the little fox is still no match for an old fox like you. Only you dare to turn the Sheng Dynasty Dragon Vein into a place of great danger!"

Zhan Yan said as a matter of course: "The emperor said he would support me, no matter what happens, he will cover it!"

Li Wang snorted coldly: "Oh, he might be shooting himself in the foot. Letting you do this, I really don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse!"

Emperor Sheng An, who was sleeping with the empress in his arms, was overjoyed. He said cheerfully, "Finally, I've handed that thorny matter over to Zhan Yan. He's so smart, he'll definitely protect the dragon vein!"

The Queen said worriedly, "If Zhan Yan knew you were plotting against him, would he hold a grudge against you? He's very petty and will never let go of anything!"

Emperor Sheng An raised his eyebrows confidently, "How could that be? He is the most loyal to me. He must understand my difficulties and empathize with me. At worst, after this is over, I can give him some more rewards as compensation!"

The Queen nodded. "At least you shouldn't harbor any resentment. He's a rare loyal minister, and Wanwan is also like a couple. If he were to suffer any injustice in this matter, we wouldn't be able to explain it to the old uncle!"

Emperor Sheng An soothed him gently, "Don't worry, my uncle understands my difficulties. He must think Zhan Yan is the best person to handle this matter. He won't say anything!"

The queen didn't say anything else, but turned over and continued to sleep.

The emperor disagreed and pulled her to his side without hesitation.

The next day, Prince Jing and his entourage arrived in the capital. When he checked into the inn, Zhan Yan and his men received him.

It was the first time that the old Prince Jing saw the God of War of the Sheng Dynasty, and he couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

He said in a hoarse voice, "Are you the Zhan Yan who has made many remarkable achievements? I heard that you are one of the most valued generals by the emperor. Now that I see you, you are indeed an imposing figure!"

Zhan Yan bowed politely: "Greetings, Prince Jing!"

The old Prince Jing waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, I'll introduce you to my son first. His name is Mo Lingran, and he's the heir of the Prince Jing's mansion!"

Zhan Yanshu opened his mouth and said, "Greetings to Prince Ling Ran!"

Mo Lingran is a handsome man with a pair of shrewd eyes. However, he doesn't look like the old Prince Jing at all. I wonder if he takes after his mother.

He immediately smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, Lord Zhan Yi. Ling Ran has just arrived in the capital, so please take care of him!"

After saying that, he actually bowed deeply to Zhan Yan.

Zhan Yan immediately raised his hand to stop him. He couldn't bear the stigma of being arrogant. No matter what, the person in front of him was the prince of Prince Jing's Mansion, and he couldn't let him pay him such a big gift.

Just as the old Prince Jing was about to make further introductions, he heard an urgent voice suddenly ring out from outside the hall: "Young Master, don't barge in! The prince is meeting an honored guest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Jing's expression became visibly gloomy and ugly.

Immediately afterwards, a red figure ran in front of everyone. His red brocade robe was bulging, and no one knew what was stuffed in it.

When he saw Zhan Yan, he said loudly: "Dear guest, I am here to give you a gift. I am sure you will like Xiao Hei and Xiao Qing!"

Old Prince Jing seemed to have thought of something and immediately shouted in alarm: "Quick, stop him!"

However, it was too late. Two thick and long snakes pounced on Zhan Yanfei head-on.

His expression suddenly changed, and he immediately lifted up his brocade robe and flew back several feet away.
