Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Thinking about this, Huang Wan’er felt that many of her doubts had been resolved.

After all, the issue between her husband and Zhao Ya had always hung heavily on her mind, and now that it was spoken, she could actually accept it!

Chen Jie left, dressed, fully understanding and empathizing with Huang Wan’er’s concerns; as his status rose, it was inevitable for him to have more women.

Just like Zhao Ya, firstly they were mutually in love, and secondly, her background and personal capabilities significantly aided him in his future conquest of the world.

Huang Wan’er’s current feelings of anxiety were also understandable, given what she said.

Su Yunjin, the wife through thick and thin, could not be moved. The Commandery Princess, with her high status and outstanding abilities, was also the one who could help him the most.

And Huang Wan’er, besides her charming appearance and bold prowess in bed, seemed to have nothing substantial to offer, putting her at a disadvantage compared to the other two.

This made her naturally anxious, as if someone were to be abandoned, she seemed the most suitable to be discarded. Her enduring not being abandoned would thus rely on Chen Jie’s conscience.

Precisely because of this, her anxiety was something that Chen Jie himself would feel if he were in her position.

In this world, women’s status mostly depended on men; if Huang Wan’er lost his support, there was a real possibility she would fall out of favor and become useless.

Moreover, in her view, she had given birth to a girl.

In our era, most people wouldn’t favor sons over daughters, but in this era, most people favored sons, which gave her a significant sense of insecurity.

Chen Jie could understand but was unable to comfort her.

Because her thought must be to monopolize him, which was impossible, he couldn’t abandon the Commandery Princess for her, as she had sacrificed enough for him, and he couldn’t wrong her!

So, there was no other option than for Chen Jie to use his strong body to seal Huang Wan’er’s mouth.

When he possessed her, she wouldn’t overthink, making it a good way to conquer a woman.

Alternatively, why not let Huang Wan’er have another child; if she gave birth to a son, she might feel a bit better.

Chen Jie thought as he walked slowly toward Su Yunjin’s room, while outside, it was gradually getting dark.

This time upon returning, after arranging matters in Huangzhou Prefecture, she would go to Ruyang Royal Mansion to engage with Ruyang King. After all, within his bet with Ruyang King, reaching the Melt God Realm qualified him to marry the Commandery Princess.

Thus, he couldn’t keep the Commandery Princess waiting.

Thinking this, Chen Jie made arrangements: spending today and the next at home with his two wives, then summoning all of Huangzhou Prefecture’s civil and military ranks to assess the implementation of policies in Huangzhou Prefecture, before heading to Longxing Prefecture to marry the Commandery Princess from Ruyang King.

This was Chen Jie’s plan, but before that, he needed to consult Su Yunjin’s opinion.

After all, in matters like these, he needed the whole family’s agreement for the Commandery Princess to marry in smoothly. As the saying goes, family harmony brings prosperity; if he aimed to conquer the world and had fierce battles with his enemies, he couldn’t afford chaos in the backyard, or his life would be unbearable.

Thus, Chen Jie had to appease everyone’s emotions.

In the past, reading novels where the protagonist married one wife, then another, and eventually a bunch of wives all living harmoniously like sisters without jealousy or individual thoughts seemed like a fairy tale now.

One must understand women to be the most complex creatures in the world, and their mutual subtle thoughts are truly terrifying, nothing simple at all.

To achieve harmony in the backyard, as the householder, Chen Jie needed considerable balance skills.

Thinking this, Chen Jie arrived at Su Yunjin’s room.

Compared to Huang Wan’er, Su Yunjin’s room was much simpler, with nothing but a dressing table and a bookshelf, which housed many books.

Su Yunjin loved reading; don’t forget her background as the daughter of a scholar. Although not from a family famed for education generation after generation, she could still be considered of cultivated descent.

At this moment, Su Yunjin was reading a book and looked very focused.

Chen Jie approached, and Su Yunjin only looked up when he did. Seeing Chen Jie’s slightly disheveled hair, she smiled and said, ”Husband is here; it appears Sister Huang attended to you comfortably.”

Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, ”Why don’t you attend to your husband in such moments? Or do you disdain your husband?”

Su Yunjin blushed slightly and replied, ”With husband newly returned, fierce as a wolf, this humble wife fears she couldn’t endure, disrupting husband’s pleasure.”

”You’re quite smart!”

Chen Jie affectionately praised Su Yunjin and then picked up the book on the table, asking, ”What are you reading?”

Su Yunjin replied, ”Thousand Character Classic.”

Chen Jie took it and looked through it, saying, ”This kind of basic book, you need to read through the night?”

Su Yunjin said, ”It’s just that the academy’s Mr. reflected that when teaching this Thousand Character Classic, students tend to remember it slowly, so I thought of passing on the phonetic method you taught, to help the academy’s students learn characters more quickly.”

”Hmm, that’s a very good suggestion.”

Chen Jie acknowledged her, as besides being the housekeeper, Su Yunjin also oversaw the entire educational system of Huangzhou Prefecture. Every principal of the academy, upon appointment, first had to report to Su Yunjin and present the recent situation to her for decision-making.
