203. Chapter 203: Head to the Battlefield

Translator: LiamHW

Song Qinghan’s pupils shrank suddenly as if he had just heard something weird and incredible, he repeated, “Make him a concubine?”

Even Wu Dahu, who got involved in this matter from the very beginning till the end, couldn’t figure out the current intention of the Grand Coordinator, he frowned tight and asked, “How come, Lord? Lianyue himself should know the best that the child doesn’t belong to me, what he did was just to use my family as a bridge to get to you. Please understand that there has been various rumors out there. If he really becomes a concubine in my family one day, how will Lianyue and his child get along with the biological father in the future?”

The Grand Coordinator glanced at him plainly, and then answered in calmness, “Since that barbarian didn’t leave any notice, he won’t do anything in the future either, will he?”

Wu Dahu was speechless in resignation, as if he never expected that the Grand Coordinator who was with a stuffy look would retort people with such a brain.

Was that indeed an act that they lifted the stone to smash their own feet?

Song Qinghan noticed the embarrassment Wu Dahu currently faced, he took the initiative to utter, “We will take the deal, but I would love to know about the relationship between you and Lianyue, if that is not a question bothering you? I’ve learned that Lianyue seemed to come here for you, Lord.”

Facing such a question, the Grand Coordinator didn’t choose to hide it up, but answered with a leisurely manner, “I’m his biological father.”

Nothing but astonishment emerged on both faces of Song Qinghan and Wu Dahu after they were informed with that news. And then the Grand Coordinator added, “You guys don’t have to worry about the affair too much, I just want Lianyue to get a nominal family. He will stay with me in my mansion most of time, especially when Lord Wu heads to the battlefield.”

Noticing that the Grand Coordinator had already shown his sincerity, Song Qinghan nodded and uttered peacefully, “Don’t worry, Lord. I definitely know Lianyue’s personality, he is gentle and quiet, never possesses any fierce ambition for acquiring something. He will stay here in peace.”

The Grand Coordinator sighed quietly without making any noise, and he decided not to confess more about the matter. He nodded to the two, and then turned around and left.

Well, it was totally beyond his expectation that he would break his principle in his lifelong persistence when he meet his child again. Yet in a second thought, he was no longer a man who got a prolonged life to spend, he would completely regard it as the rare negligence in his whole life. Otherwise, if his only son was left alone in this world of loneliness, he would never be able to die with his eyes closed and soul in peace.

Because every time he thought of the picture that Lianyue would live a life which his femina father once lived, he would cringe and be afraid.

Recalling the innocent face in his memories, the Grand Coordinator sank into a dreadful sorrow while his eyes were filled with tears. He raised his head and looked into the grey and cloudy sky,  murmuring in melancholy, “I’m almost there, I am about to accompany with you once everything is arranged.”

It did not take a long time when the final judgement was announced in the court. Lianyue would be officially and mandatorily grounded and urged to reflect on his own misdeeds at home based on the fact that he knew nothing towards the whole thing and he was still in pregnancy. In the meanwhile he would be totally under surveillance of the guards sent by the official. No one knew whether such a court decision was a good news or bad one. But as for Song Qinghan, it was just a decision to protect Lianyue to the largest extent.

But how unlucky Lu Sen was! He got the caning of fifty beats on the butt for doing nothing but accused of taking liberties with Lianyue. So when he was finally released, he showed up with the gauge on his butt soaked with blood in redness.

Out of care, Hualian reached out to support Lu Sen by his shoulders, and brought him back to the house.

Well, this was in fact the decision made by Song Qinghan. After all, it was them who got Lu Sen to be the scapegoat for making such an excuse. Of course they should compensate him.

However, it seemed that Lu Sen did not choose to complain after he figured out the fact of the whole matter. Instead, he came to comfort Hualian seriously, “That’s not a big thing, it is just a temporary pain on the butt. In fact, I should be cheerful not dying because of it. Don’t worry about me, alright? I feel bad when you feel bad.”

Hearing that, Lianyue paused suddenly as his movement applying the medicine cream came to a halt. He blushed all of a sudden and the put down the medicine cream, uttering with a bit naughty wrath, “Apply it yourself! I got another matter needed to be processed.”

Staring at the back of Hualian who left hastily, Lu Sen was suddenly choked by the words he was about to say. He scratched himself on the head, and struggled to turn around. But how was that possible for him to make that agilely? He did attempt to apply the medicine cream on his butt but failed every time. With that failure, he had to give up and lay in bed on his belly while sighing alone.

Beyond his expectation, a hasty footstep was heard from outside at the next moment. It was Hualian showing up with a face of slight anger.

“Mistress ordered me to lend you a hand, don’t you think too much, alright!? We got no others in the house now, so I have to do that! Don’t ever expect that Young Master Wenxuan will condescend to a simple man.”

Lu Sen held back his laughter. Seeing that Hualian was almost ignited again, he turned his head to the other side suddenly, trying his best not to make a sound.

Even so, he felt quite delightful in mind currently because he knew that though Yuan Wenxuan was kind of a Young Master in this house, he was a doctor-to-be as well. Nothing like “condescend to a simple man” would exist among doctors who was about to treat his patients. So, in fact Hualian…

Since Lu Sen had come back in the house, Lianyue did come back as well. But he still did not know what the Grand Coordinator had said and done when he was absent in the house. So he was quite surprised when he noticed that Song Qinghan and Wu Dahu commenced getting along with him with a gentler attitude. But since he was quite sophisticated in handling with such things, he did not react queerly right at this moment.

In fact, Song Qinghan didn’t change his attitude on treating Lianyue a lot, what changed was just his position on viewing the whole matter. That was why it brought Lianyue with such a perceptual misunderstanding.

Previously, Song Qinghan knew that Lianyue owned a certain purpose when approaching his family, of course he would show a cold face to him. But since the misunderstanding had been unveiled, they should have a more natural way to get along with each other.

However, there left no enough time for them to get along because Wu Dahu and Song Qinghan were ready to head to the battlefield.

On the day of departure, after Wu Dahu left for the leading guard team, Song Qinghan set off in behind while even carrying Little Shitou in his arms.

Little Shitou now became more and more sensible these days. Basically, if Song Qinghan would talk with him nicely, he would be rather obedient to what Song Qinghan commanded. In that case, Song Qinghan chose to bring Little Shitou together in this trip in order not to break his previous promise made to Little Shitou.

Besides, he knew that he would totally be safe in the logistic team and wouldn’t encounter any danger. If he really encountered any danger, he knew that he would definitely protect Little Shitou with Wu Dahu as hard as they could, and let the others who finally survived bring him back.

But on the other hand, he still had no idea where he was about to head to. Even Hening refused to confess, but was informed that he would know it at the moment he arrived.

Song Qinghan was much curious: Where would that place be which made Hening want to keep it as a secret till the end?

When they finally reached the target place, a man who seemed to be a leader approached and sized up Song Qinghan dubiously from head to toe, and then asked in astonishment, “Really? You bring your child to the battlefield?”

Noticing that the ‘audience’ was attracted by that sound and fixed their gazes over on him, Song Qinghan stuffed Little Shitou in his arms meticulously as if to attempt to cover him up, and then he lowered his head and answered, “If I don’t do so, the child will be left at home alone, besides, his father is in the team as well but not logistic team.”

Although people who was able to get involved in the logistic team wouldn’t be qualified to be a member of noble, they weren’t that impoverished as well. So when they heard what Song Qinghan confessed, all of them sighed while delivering him a sympathetic look.

The leader came to sigh with a relief as well, he passed Song Qinghan a wooden plate, while uttering in a low voice, “You’re in the chamber pot group, go there and wait for assignment.”

Song Qinghan took the wooden plate over in his hands with his face full of shock, he came to ask dumbfounded, “Cham… Chamber pot group? Wh, what kind of group is that?”
