In response to Lin Daiyu's health condition, Jia Huan devised a gentle recuperation plan while simultaneously searching for corresponding breathing techniques.

The final outcome was unexpected by Jia Huan, who certainly didn't anticipate that Lin Daiyu's physical condition was so poor.

Her current body is only suitable for breathing techniques at 2% progress!

The reason why Jia Huan was so insistent on having Lin Daiyu practice breathing exercises was because he had discovered that the breathing exercises he had developed could vibrate the muscles, bones, skin, and internal organs through breathing, which had a significant effect on improving physical fitness.

Whether placed in the world of martial arts or traditional Chinese martial arts, this is a top-tier training method!

At first, Lin Daiyu was a little proud and unwilling to be 'manipulated' by Jia Huan, and she was quite resistant to physical exercise.

After all, she's from a well-to-do family; some things are understandable!

Fortunately, Jia Huan's recuperation methods do not require him to engage in any high-intensity exercise.

It's simply a matter of regulating your physical state through breathing exercises while taking a walk or sitting upright.

The key is that, in order to achieve the desired effect, one must first master the basics of breathing techniques!

Guiding Lin Daiyu in cultivation is actually quite simple. Just show her a little skill, like a swallow easily leaping over the wall, and she'll be filled with envy and want to learn it.

At this point, Jia Huan told her that it wasn't difficult to achieve this. As long as she made the breathing technique a habit, she could do it in less than a year or two, though there was a slight exaggeration involved.

Even so, Lin Daiyu was quite excited, and with her talent, she quickly mastered the basics.

Several months passed, and Jia Huan no longer needed to examine her; she could clearly feel her body becoming healthier and healthier, and she even stopped taking the ginseng nourishing pills that she had been taking continuously.

At this moment, her physical condition was even stronger than that of an ordinary person!

Of course, compared to Jia Huan and those who practice martial arts, he is far inferior.

Even so, not only Lin Daiyu, but also Lin Ruhai were quite excited.

Jia Huan wasn't trying to fool Lin Daiyu, even though given her current physical condition, it was impossible for her to easily scale walls and leap over doors. However, by combining certain parkour skills with agility techniques from martial arts, she could perform some rather difficult leaps.

In the past, I wouldn't have dared to even dream of such a good thing!

The couple had a very harmonious relationship. Seeing that Lin Daiyu's health had returned to normal, he helped adjust her exercise plan while also using the story of "Lin Daiyu uprooting the willow tree" from their previous life to add a little fun to their relationship.

That's why people say Lin Daiyu's background was extraordinary.

In such a short time, Jia Huan had already adjusted her breathing technique to the pace when the progress bar reached three percent, based on her physical condition.

It was after Lin Daiyu's health had fully recovered that she became pregnant.

Upon hearing the news, Lin Ruhai was overjoyed and somewhat lost his composure. He approached Jia Huan and cautiously inquired whether Lin Daiyu's second child could be surnamed Lin.

Jia Huan agreed without hesitation, not being particularly attached to the surname of his own child.

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed. He hadn't expected Jia Huan to be so generous, and he was so excited that he didn't know what to say to thank him.

Jia Huan found it amusing; the greatest help Lin Ruhai could receive was simply securing his position in the cabinet.

Not only Lin Ruhai, but in fact, he did not waste Lin Daiyu's talent in the slightest.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was interested in poetry and prose, he compiled all of her previous poems into a book, and after consulting with her, sold it to the public under a pseudonym.

This gesture deeply pleased Daiyu, and even during her pregnancy, her mood remained sunny and bright.

Unexpectedly, Daiyu's poetic talent was remarkable, and the collection of her poems sold quite well. Her pen name, Xiaoxiang Jushi, also gained some fame, and she even received praise and comments from famous scholars in the capital.

Jia Huan was naturally not unhappy. On the contrary, he encouraged Daiyu to write more good poems and lyrics if she had a burst of inspiration during her pregnancy.

When the news reached the ears of the other women, it immediately drew envious glances.

Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun, who were already married, came together with Tan Chun, who had just become engaged.

While congratulating Lin Daiyu on the great success and popularity of her poetry collection, they all left behind their own poems, their intentions self-evident.

Given the Xue family's commercial strength, publishing a collection of poems would have generated even greater influence and sensation. So why would they ask Jia Huan to help with the publication?

For no other reason than that the Xue family's status as imperial merchants was too strong, naturally causing those prominent figures in the scholarly circles to subconsciously reject them.

As for Shi Xiangyun, the situation is basically the same.

Her husband, Wei Ruolan, came from a family that was purely a military family, and naturally they were not well-regarded by scholars.

As for Jia Huan, he has the support of Lin Ruhai, a top scholar.

His bookstores, modeled after modern small libraries, were already quite famous among scholars in Beijing.

Poetry collections sold through bookstores naturally attracted more attention from the literati in the capital.

Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun did this not for fame, but simply because they thought it was fun, though there was also a bit of competitive spirit involved.

You should know that back in the Rong Mansion, the girls would hold a poetry club whenever they had the chance!

Everyone displayed their talents and produced many high-quality poems, including some masterpieces.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu's pseudonym had gained some fame in the literary world, Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun naturally wanted to imitate it as well, which could be considered a kind of self-entertainment.

It is said that Xue Baochai was still in Jinling before the New Year, accompanying her husband Jia Cong to observe mourning!

However, because of Jia Huan and Lin Daiyu's marriage, Jia Cong asked her to return to the capital in advance to participate, which is why she was able to ask Jia Huan for help in publishing a collection of poems with Shi Xiangyun.

Jia Huan readily agreed to all of them.

He showed no surprise at the two women displaying their poetic talents; in fact, he greatly admired their abilities.

Anyway, he also received the current elite education, but unfortunately, he never really got the hang of poetry, which requires talent and inspiration.

He didn't even dare to bring out the poems from the Qing Dynasty that he was relatively familiar with, or the poems of other great poets, for he might accidentally expose his ignorance.

With their poetic talents that rival Lin Daiyu's, these two will soon become famous among the scholars of the capital, and indeed, very famous.

The girls probably didn't care much about it; they just thought it was fun.

However, Jia Huan had his own thoughts and ideas about this!

Now, let's talk about Tan Chun, who was already seventeen years old at this time.

If things had followed the original trajectory, they would have already arrived in Qianxiang Kingdom for the marriage alliance, their fate uncertain.

Before the Lunar New Year, she was still a young woman who was somewhat worried about getting married.

It wasn't that no one came to propose marriage; after all, the Rong family was prestigious, and Tan Chun was the elder sister of Jia Huan, the first-class Earl of Dingyuan.

Whoever marries Tan Chun will never lack connections or resources in the imperial court.

Unfortunately, Madam Wang clearly intended to "sell" Tan Chun for a good price, and would reject all suitors who came to propose marriage if they did not meet her requirements.

Not only was Tan Chun helpless in this situation, but even Jia Huan couldn't do anything about Lady Wang.

This is feudal ethics and the right that the matriarch of the household should have.

Even if Master Zheng wanted to intervene, it wouldn't be so easy to talk to him. With just a casual remark from Madam Wang, "For Baoyu's sake," Master Zheng would immediately back down.

Of course, the fact that there are no peers that Tan Chun finds attractive at the moment is also one of the reasons.

Tan Chun originally wanted to marry a newly appointed Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations), since the potential of a newly appointed Jinshi was extremely high, and there was a possibility that he might become a first-rank imperial consort in the future.

Unfortunately, top scholars like Lin Ruhai, who could become the third-ranked scholar at a young age, were either already betrothed to someone else or had no chance of marrying into the Rong family.

It wasn't until Jia Huan and Daiyu's wedding that a young and promising soldier took a liking to Tan Chun and promptly proposed marriage, drawing surprised glances from everyone.

Chapter 399 A Shocking Move (Please Subscribe)

The person who took the initiative to propose marriage to Tan Chun was an acquaintance of Jia Huan, and also his former direct subordinate.

It is none other than Feng Ziying, the son of the Divine Martial General and the current Commander of the Capital Garrison!

This guy bumped into Tan Chun during the wedding night festivities and was immediately struck by her beauty, never forgetting her.

After finding out about Tan Chun's situation through Jia Baoyu, the traitor, he decisively asked his own father, General Feng Tang, to invite the most famous official matchmaker to propose marriage.

This time, Feng Ziying made ample preparations and even persuaded Jia Baoyu, the traitor.

With Jia Baoyu's help, Lady Wang naturally relented, and the marriage was settled immediately.

By the time Jia Huan learned of the news, the Shenwu General's Mansion had already begun preparing for the engagement banquet.

He was naturally both amused and exasperated, but he also thought the marriage was not bad at all!

As mentioned earlier, Feng Ziying was a rare and outstanding figure among the sons of noble families of this generation.

Although the Shenwu General's Mansion and the Rong Mansion were not exactly a perfect match, they were both noble families. The General's Mansion's strength and prestige were roughly on par with the Twelve Marquises of the Founding Dynasty. In addition, Feng Ziying was the legitimate daughter of Tan Chun, so it was not an insult to her.

Given her future prospects, Tan Chun naturally has plenty of room to make a difference.

Jia Huan's older sister is a very strong-willed person.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, and Shi Xiangyun had all gained some fame among the literati in the capital, they naturally refused to be outdone and demanded that Jia Huan compile and publish the poems they had previously written in the poetry club.

Jia Huan had no objection; it was just something he could do on a whim.

Unexpectedly, the girls' talents were truly remarkable. For some reason, their online personas became increasingly popular and were well-liked by young ladies from wealthy families.

Naturally, the spread of information about brothels and brothels was also quite rapid!

Although it feels somewhat ominous, it must be said that brothels and entertainment venues in this era were the entertainment centers of various places.

If you want to quickly expand the influence of several female aliases, going through brothels is a good option.

Of course, Jia Huan's real purpose was not to promote a few talented women.

At this point, thanks to the efforts of many members of the imperial clan, the current emperor had compromised.
