Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

Useful people should be punished because punishment is useful.

Useless people should not be punished because it is unnecessary.

Gu Lintan understood the meaning of Jiang Xue's words.

She wanted to tell him that no matter how severely he punished the original guards in the mansion, she did not believe that they could re-establish a safe environment for her.

Gu Lintan did not answer Jiang Xue's question directly, but asked sincerely:

"I just want to know, does His Highness blame me for what happened last night?"

He lowered his eyes in despair and said, "After all, I arranged for all the servants and maids to guard the house. If they are useless, then I am the most useless."

He said: "Am I the one your Highness is angry with?"

If Jiang Xue could lift up her sleeves at this moment, the goosebumps falling from her body would probably cover the floor of the small side hall.

She forced herself to show an understanding smile and said:

"Prince-in-law, are you unwilling to remove these guards? Even if they cannot protect the safety of Gu Mansion?"

Jiang Xue is very curious, how important are these guards to him?

Is he unwilling to give up, or is he unable - or in other words, dare not give up?

Seeing that she didn't answer, Gu Lintan said again:

"His Royal Highness was frightened last night. The biggest fault lies with me. I was the one who avoided the important matter and took it lightly. I should be the one who deserves the punishment."

"But I don't blame the prince-in-law." Jiang Xueyao said. She didn't want to make excuses with him anymore. She just wanted to have a good meal.

Gu Lintan wanted to test her attitude, so she gave it to him.

"Japan was not young when the prince-in-law arrived in the capital," she said, "and the prince-in-law was born in poverty, studied hard in a poor family, and had outstanding literary talent, so he was named on the gold list."

She flattered him appropriately.

"The prince-in-law has little experience in dispatching servants in this high-rise courtyard. How can I bear to blame the prince-son?"

"Even if you want to blame, you should also blame those cunning villains who deceived the prince-in-law."

Her eyes were watery and full of true feelings.

"It's just last night - I'm really scared. Please forgive me, Prince Consort. When did any little thief appear within the palace wall?"

"If we can't replace them with a group of more skilled guards, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well every night."

Seeing that Gu Lintan still seemed unmoved, she thought for a moment.

"That's all, that's all," she sighed, with a hint of resentment in her words, "I really don't blame my consort for the trouble. Why don't I go back to the palace today and inform my father and mother about this, hoping that they can stay with me temporarily? In the palace.”

"I will come back after my consort has trained the guards in the mansion."

Gu Lintan couldn't sit still.

He didn't want to change his bodyguards. Firstly, this was his Prince Consort's Mansion. Yesterday, Jiang Yu changed his butler with just one word. Could it be that Jiang Xue had to change the bodyguards arranged by him with just one meal today?

From now on, in this Prince Consort’s Mansion—and even in the court, who will take him seriously?

Secondly, the man who arranged the team at Jiang Xue's residence was given to him by that person. The man didn't make any arrangements, and he couldn't invite them out of the Gu Mansion.

But Jiang Xue had already reached this point - she called herself this palace, as if she wanted to remind him to remember her status as a princess.

If her request is not granted today, the secret of "a thief breaking into Gu's house at night" will be spread to the palace.

He was really annoyed that Jiang Xue was so out of control.

But at this moment, I can only lower my posture.

He immediately put down his chopsticks, stood up and bowed to Jiang Xue, saying:

"Your Highness, I have failed in my duty. Please don't think so, otherwise I will be unfaithful."

"A hundred deaths are hard to redeem."

Jiang Xue stared coldly for a few seconds, then stood up and reached out to hold up his arms.

"Lin Tan, you are my husband. From the day of your wedding, you and I are husband and wife, sharing weal and woe."

"I am not being unreasonable or arrogant."

"Just changing a group of guards will give me peace of mind. Can you tell me what your difficulties are?"

Jiang Xue's posture softened slightly, but she did not let go.

Gu Lintan said: "Your Highness knows that I came from a poor family and it was not easy to pass the scientific examination. I know very well that most of these guards are from poor families, and some even have nowhere to go, so they can only sell themselves as servants of the master's family."

"I look at these slaves the same as I looked at myself when I was down and out."

"Since I have bought their deeds, I will not sell them and abandon them easily."

"Your Highness has the right to fulfill this little thing for me, and show your compassion for me."

Jiang Xue sneered.

Gu Lintan, a heart of compassion?

In the dream, his sword thrust was clean and sharp.

To Jiang Xue, he was like a poisonous snake hibernating in his arms.

Let her experience the compassion of the poisonous snake?

Great joke.

But Jiang Xue had already expected what he said.

Her purpose was not to drive all these people out of the Gu Mansion.

She was waiting for Gu Lintan to give this reason.

Jiang Xue sighed deeply and said: "The consort's kindness can be expressed by heaven and earth. I cannot make things difficult for you, otherwise you will be rebellious against heaven and earth and your life will be in vain."

"In that case, let's do this."

"I will arrange the security of the inner courtyard - only in this way can I rest in peace."

"As for the original guards, let them patrol the outer courtyard. I heard that the prince-in-law had left all his men in the backyard. There were no guards in his study or even the Luming House where he is currently staying. This is very inappropriate."

"I was not worried at first. The thieves are so bold that they even broke into my place. What should I do if I go to my consort in the future?"

"Since the consort doesn't want to leave these guards, we divided them into two teams. Those who originally guarded the front yard will continue to guard the front yard. As for those who originally guarded the courtyard of the palace - they should go to the place where the prince consort lives and guard."

"Is that good?"

What Jiang Xue originally wanted to do was to remove Gu Lintan's spy from his own hospital.

But now she has more than this plan.

She was very curious now. What would Gu Lintan ask them to do after the team that Gu Lintan cared about so much could no longer monitor her?

He tried every possible means to keep these people, so they couldn't possibly eat in Gu's house, right?

Jiang Xue expected that he would not be able to refuse.

Her words not only blocked his so-called "difficulties" just now, but also told him very forcefully - people, she has decided to change. If you don't want to change them all, then at least these people within her scope of activity must be replaced.

Give both grace and power.

Sure enough, Gu Lintan thought about it again and again and said:

"Lin Tan, thank you for your consideration, Your Highness. This is a very good method."

Jiang Xue gave up as soon as she was ready.

She sat down and pulled Gu Lintan's sleeves.

"Consort, please eat quickly. I specially asked Fu Dong to watch the cooking of these dishes. Do you like them if you try them?"

Gu Lintan also looked at her tenderly and said, "Okay."

Jiang Xue picked up the simmered lotus root on the plate and bit into it. It was full of richness without losing the fragrance of the lotus root.

Fudong's craftsmanship has improved.

The two of them were having a "deep affectionate" meal when suddenly someone stumbled into the small side hall.

Jiang Xue looked up and saw that the person coming was Huang Fu.

Huang Fu had anxiety on his face and said: "Your Highness, Prince Consort, the warehouse has been stolen!"
