Good luck in pregnancy: The lucky child is loved by the group

Chapter 70: The Marquis's Child-Raised Little Wife
"I seem to have accidentally married a wealthy man! I guess I can't spend all these treasures in several lifetimes..."

He smiled and glared at her, saying jokingly, "Is that all you're after? Just pick up two treasures and they'll be enough for you to enjoy for several lifetimes!"

The two moved on.

"That's where I practice martial arts. There's a dense bamboo forest outside."

Fan An nodded slowly, looking at the wide martial arts training ground, and couldn't help asking: "Is that all, nothing else?"

Jiang Lanyue was stunned for a moment, then said: "Didn't I tell you? I also converted part of it into capital and invested in business with He Yu."

"That's not what I meant. I meant people."

"people?"

"Yeah, where are the people around you? Are you alone?"

He raised his eyebrows slightly and replied, "I have a total of 200 secret guards around me, half of whom are distributed in various places to assist in handling business matters."

"Just these few people?" Fan An couldn't help but frowned, "Too few."

Jiang Lanyue put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "In fact, the number of people is not the key. What the Southwest Marquis' Mansion needs to do is to keep a low profile, so it is not appropriate to involve too many people."

Fan An paused and asked, "Do you remember that I asked you before about your future plans? So your plan is to protect the Marquis' Mansion and the safety of the family, right?"

Jiang Lanyue nodded in agreement.

Everyone in this family is so tolerant, just to save their lives.

"Then, have you ever thought about how the Marquis' Mansion should respond if the Emperor still decides to take ruthless action in the end?"

After all, the later plot was indeed a ruthless massacre. The entire Southwest Marquis' Mansion, even the original body who left early and the two princesses who married far away, could not escape this disaster.

Although Jiang Lanyue survived the disaster and was rescued, he started to rise up and gather people to resist, but in the end he died from the chronic poison accumulated in his body over the years.

If she doesn't take action now, even if she gives birth to a child of destiny, she will probably not be able to escape the disaster.

Jiang Lanyue frowned and his eyes flickered when he heard this. "It's not that I haven't considered the problem you mentioned, but..."

He sighed softly and said, "My father told me that we are of the same clan as the royal family after all. In terms of blood relationship, I have to call the emperor grandpa. Family ties are something that are hard to give up after all."

Fan An recalled the usually gentle and refined Prince Jiang, and his mother who was simple and kind-hearted, and quickly understood the meaning of Jiang Lanyue's words.

"So, what about the old marquis? Does he think the same? He gave up his status as the emperor's uncle and was willing to give up his power to become just an ordinary marquis. And you can only inherit the marquisate, not the extremely noble prince. Does he think the same way?"

Jiang Lanyue shook his head gently: "Not only that, Grandpa not only gave up the throne, but also took the initiative to hand over the family property. He has always kept a low profile, making the Marquis' Mansion appear to be gradually declining, so he escaped the disaster."

Fan An recalled the old marquis's wise eyes that saw through everything, and asked, "I think that grandpa's point of view must be different from father's, right?"

Jiang Lanyue smiled with a hint of surprise and gently pinched her fair cheek.

"Little guy, I didn't expect you to know so much about our family. That's right, he thinks we should secretly accumulate strength to deal with emergencies, so he asked me to secretly transfer assets and practice martial arts at the same time."

"But this level is not enough, we still need people."

His sharp eyes flickered slightly, and he understood her intention in his heart. He whispered: "It was too difficult... Grandpa handed over all his military power back then, so that he and I could leave the capital safely." "He said that it was the most embarrassing and painful moment in his life."

The more Jiang Lan thought about it, the more he felt scared and frightened.

Fortunately, the world is always fair. It was during that time that he met little Fanan and arranged the marriage.

Fan An suddenly thought of something and asked, "Jiang Lanyue, do you know how many troops the imperial court has?"

"About half a million."

She sighed softly, "More than half a million. Then we not only need a large amount of reserve funds, we also need to reserve talents. Otherwise, if the emperor is determined to kill us all, what can we use to resist? Once the army attacks, can we stop them with gold?"

When Jiang Lanyue heard this, he frowned and fell into deep thought.

She reached out and stroked her belly, whispering, "Do you remember that they gave me sterilization drugs? If the emperor really thinks that you, the only child, are deviant and that the Southwest Marquisate has declined, then is it necessary for them to kill all your offspring?"

Jiang Lanyue's heart tightened and he held her hand.

"Little Fatty, I understand what you said, but since the Marquis's Mansion has been keeping a low profile for almost ten years, the royal family has not taken any major actions, so I am more inclined to believe my father's opinion, and there is still a glimmer of hope in my heart."

Fan An shook his head: "It's better to be prepared for the worst. My brother said that even the ministers in the court knew that the emperor was afraid of the Southwest Marquisate. You have lived in the southwest for a long time and deliberately ignored the situation in the capital, so you are even less clear about the specific situation. Therefore, we should be prepared for any eventuality."

He shuddered and stared at her for a long while before nodding affirmatively.

"you're right."

"Fortunately, we have some wealth. As the saying goes, money talks. We can use this money to recruit people."

"Ah."

As Jiang Lanyue spoke, he led Fan'an towards a lounge near the martial arts training ground.

The room was quiet and empty. He took out a water bag, poured a glass of water into it and handed it to her, then he picked up the water bag and drank it himself.

Fan An took a sip and was a little surprised: "Is this the mountain spring water here? It's icy and delicious."

Jiang Lanyue nodded gently: "Yes, when I take a break from practicing, what I like most is to drink this cool spring water."

Fan An looked around and asked again, "There shouldn't be many guards here, right?"

"Only the secret guards responsible for daily cleaning come here regularly."

"What about your friends?"

"I only bring them to this villa to drink and have fun. When they are drunk, I will sneak down and no one will notice anything unusual."

Fan An couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder you always go out early and come back late, it turns out you are so busy every day."

Jiang Lanyue laughed and said, "My previous routine was fine. I'm used to it. But after having you, I feel much more relaxed and have more opportunities to escape."

"That's right, you don't even know who I am."
