The Blessed Chapter 407
Speaking of which, Ling Wu puffed out his cheeks. Ling Jingxuan found it so amused and stuck out a finger to poke on his cheek, making him even angrier, so he hurriedly stopped his action and said, “All right, all right. Daddy was just kidding. I am really sleepy. Brother Zhao and Han, Jinghan, Jingpeng, Qing, Yang, you help me look after the kids. I gotta go to sleep.”
When others were pregnant, they’d have morning sickness or what, he only wanted to sleep. If he hadn’t been crystal clear that in his previous life he was also human, Ling Jingxuan would even start to doubt whether he had been a pig, except eating, he was sleeping, nothing else. The worst thing was, be his parents, or his sons, they all spoiled him, and making him sleep more and more, only wishing to sleep all day long.
“Hmm, go to bed early. Now you are carrying a baby, it’s different. You can stay up for the New Year’s eve next year. So, it’s OK.”
Han Fei stood up, sent them to the door with the kids. In an angle no one noticed, those eyes that swept over Ling Jingxuan’s belly flashed with some admiration. People all said that men who gave birth were monsters. But no one knew that he’d rather be a monster as long as he could give birth, pity that…But, at least he had Tiewa and he felt satisfied.
“Brother Han, go back in. It’s cold outside. Wen, you boys also go in. Your father will be enough.”
Out of the doorway, Ling Jingxuan decisively asked them back. The two buns grabbed his hands and didn’t want him to leave. Only after they disappeared in their eyes did they go back in. After placing Ling Jingxuan in bed, Yan Shengrui went to the bathroom to prepare the bath water. After giving him a bath and getting him changed, he carried him back into bed. Ling Jingxuan got ‘ravaged’ by him like a pet. After lying in the heated brick bed, he instantly wrapped himself tightly in the quilts.
“What? You look like you have something on your mind.”
After all that, his sandmen had run away a lot. Seeing that he was like frowning, Ling Jingxuan couldn’t help stretching out a hand to touch the spot between his eyebrows and gently rubbed it for him with the finger pulp.
“I received a letter from my uncle-in-law. He said there might be a large-scale war at the boarders. It seems that someone spread the news saying that I have been missing for a few months. So in recent two months, not only the nomads in the north, even the two kingdoms on the east and west sent reinforces at the borders. If they confirm the news that I have been missing, it’s quite possible they’d join together to throw an attack.”
This was also one of the reasons why he was in such a hurry to train Ling Jingpeng. Seen from now, he must go to guard the boarder himself now. At least he hoped that before he came back, Jingxuan could live comfortably. But, his right hand reflectively felt his belly. Jingxuan had already been pregnant with his kid. How could he have the heart to leave at such a time?
The always dominant Prince Sheng was also a common man before his wife.
“Go, but be back before I give birth.”
Sitting up, Ling Jingxuan leaned over to hold his waist with his head resting on his chest. Yan Shengrui was like a mind relief to the army. With him, the soldiers would boost their morale, on the contrary, the solders’ morale would be unstable. He was not a big man who would hold the whole world in his heart. But at least he knew that the kingdom comes before home. There’s the kingdom, there isn’t their home. His man was the main general of the three armies, and also the prince of this kingdom. He had the responsibility and obligation to guard his kingdom and people. He’d wait here for him to come back. If possible, he really wanted to go with him, but…He could go, but the baby couldn’t.
“Jingxuan..”

Yan Shengrui suddenly embraced him and buried his head in his neck. He knew that he’d support him. But just because he knew that, he felt even sorrier to him. He had owed him too much. He said he would stay by his side for the arrival of their baby, but he’d lose his words to him again.
“Hehe…don’t feel sorry or what. This is not the first time you left me. A man should have big ambitions. My man is a hero. Of course I should have the broad mind as a hero’s wife. Shengrui, go. Show them what the real Prince Sheng is like and teach them a good lesson, so they’d never have the balls to set their foot on our boarders again.”
Slightly pushing him away, Ling Jingxuan raised a hand to touch his face, with his delicate face shining with firm light. If it hadn’t been his body condition, he would definitely go with him, and help him teach those damn intruders a lesson!
“Hmm, I will. This time, my uncle-in-law and I will branch out into two. We’ll definitely make them have no guts to invade into our boarders in three years. Jingxuan, thank you. I promise I will be back before you give birth. Trust me.”
Grasping his hand firmly in the hand, Yan Shengrui said firmly, his tiger eyes faintly refracting a strong murderous light, the northern nomads, he had been really sick of them, this time, he would beat them once for all!
“Hehe…of course I trust you, by the way, how many cavalries do you have in your army?”
Ling Jingxuan smiled, took his hand and lay back, he was not a woman, and did not need a man to always coax him by the side. He’d feel satisfied as long he could stay by his side when he needed him most.
“Huh? About a hundred thousand, I guess. There are seven hundred thousand soldiers at the boarders, plus the newly recruited ones, I guess there are over a million. But those who could fight those nomads would be only the one hundred thousand cavalries. But pity that, our horses are kind of different from theirs. Every time, we can only fight them when they come. If we chase after, no one can come back alive. Their soldiers grew up on the back of horses, and are familiar with the grassland and desert. So when they retreat, they’d set traps. If we chase after them, we’d definitely fall into their traps. Before, we also tried to take the initiative to launch the attack with a larger army, but due to the provisions problem, we have never succeeded.”
Seeing that it was still early, Yan Shengrui lay next to him and slowly told him about things in the frontline. The main forces couldn’t go deep into the grassland. That was also why the nomads dare to provoke them again and again. They were sure that they couldn’t sustain for long due to the provisions. So even if they went deep leading a large army, those nomads could break up the whole into parts and attack their army and provisions one by one. Without the provisions, over one hundred thousand soldiers could only wait for their deaths.
