After the prince was reborn, he forced me to marry him and took me into the East Palace

Nan Yuan lowered her eyelashes, unable to think of a way to refuse, so she nodded and said, "Okay."

Seeing this, Gu Jingheng hugged her contentedly. Feeling the warmth and softness in his arms, some sweat broke out on his forehead and he had a hard time holding it in.

But thinking of his promise just now, he suppressed the anger and held Nan Yuan tightly, then said to her with a low smile: "Yuan, when this matter outside the Great Wall is over, we can get married when we return to the capital, okay?"

"I have already prepared for you the status and pomp you want in the past few days. When you return to the capital, you can marry into my East Palace, okay?"

Gu Jingheng's breath sprayed on her cheeks, and the heat made her feel uncomfortable. There was also a hard object pressing against her lower abdomen, making it completely impossible for her to calm down and think.

Nan Yuan raised her eyes and met his deep gaze. There was a burning light flashing in his dark pupils, which made her slightly dazed.

In a flash, Nan Yuan looked away.

Fake, all fake.

Not a single word he said was true. Nan Yuan, Nan Yuan, haven't you been deceived enough by him?

What marriage, what status, it's all fake, it's just talk. If you take it seriously, you are the biggest fool!

"Okay." Nan Yuan nodded calmly without any other expression.

Seeing this, Gu Jingheng felt a little disappointed. He thought Nan Yuan would at least give him a little sweet taste, but now all she said was "OK".

But it’s okay, at least she agreed to marry me.

Take it slow, he and Nan Yuan have a long future together, and sooner or later, Nan Yuan will love him wholeheartedly.

"I'll be out for a while." Gu Jingheng released his arms around Nan Yuan and turned to get out of bed.

If he stayed here any longer, Gu Jingheng was afraid that he would not be able to control himself.

But just as he was about to leave, a small hand grabbed him and said, "It's not good for your health to take a cold shower at this time."

The gentle voice was like a catalyst, making Gu Jingheng's blood boil. His eyes became dark and hot. He stared at Nan Yuan in front of him, and flames seemed to be burning in his eyes.

Her fair skin looked even more translucent in the candlelight, and her hair was casually draped over her shoulders, black and smooth, looking as straight as silk like a waterfall.

There was a surge in his throat. He pressed the back of Nan Yuan's head to make her move closer to him. A low and hoarse voice came out of his throat: "Then what do you say we should do?"

Nan Yuan's eyelashes trembled, and she reached under Gu Jingheng's body, her face so red that blood seemed to be dripping out.

Gu Jingheng took a deep breath and tightened his grip on Nan Yuan's hand.

Nan Yuan was too embarrassed to open her eyes, but she still remembered what she wanted, so she took the opportunity to ask, "What are you doing outside the Great Wall?"

She knew that it was easiest to trick Gu Jingheng into giving her information at this time, otherwise she would not help him do this.

Gu Jingheng felt very comfortable. He tilted his head back slightly and exhaled a breath.

After hearing Nan Yuan's words, he had no scruples and told the truth: "I want the world to have the surname Gu."

Twenty-two years ago, the Queen was disliked by the Emperor and was sent to Tianqi as a hostage.

But within three months, the emperor regretted his decision and sent troops to attack Tianqi, but all the civil and military officials in Dayong tried to dissuade him.

Faced with all this, the emperor had to find another way. He used generous benefits as bait to lure those brave and knowledgeable warriors to work for him.

He promised that anyone who could help him win back the queen would be given a high position and generous salary, and would be made a king or a prince, with a hereditary title.

When there is great profit, there will always be brave men.

As the battles continued, the family's contributions increased.

In the end, the queen was successfully welcomed back, but this also led to the emperor's power being divided up among the major families.

The aristocratic families controlled their own troops and established their own regime, becoming local tyrants and enjoying honor and power similar to that of the emperor.

It would be fine if they were honest, but not a single one of them is content.

In recent years, they have become even more lawless, daring to disobey even the emperor's orders, and have refused to return with their troops, appearing to be planning to establish their own regime.

The places where they are located are the lifeline of Dayong. Once they lead their troops to defect to other countries and the gates are wide open, the capital of Dayong may fall into the hands of others.

How could Gu Jingheng allow such a thing to happen?

This world should belong to the Gu family!

On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore?

After hearing what Gu Jingheng said, Nan Yuan keenly realized what he wanted to do?

He wants to take back all the rights!

But how to take it back is a problem. The power was distributed by the emperor himself. The emperor’s words are final, so how can he go back on his word easily?

What did Gu Jingheng do in his previous life?

Nan Yuan tried her best to recall that she didn't pay attention to these things in her previous life. She just heard that the princes in various places were dissatisfied with each other and killed each other. Gu Jingheng went to mediate in the name of the emperor. In the end... in the end, they all died, and Gu Jingheng buried them with state rites.

And those rights were naturally taken back, and Gu Jingheng also earned a reputation for being kind.

Noticing that Nan Yuan was distracted, Gu Jingheng pressed the back of Nan Yuan's head, pulled her towards him and kissed her.

"You are the prince, why don't you just tell others about these things? Why do you have to go there in person?" Nan Yuan finally found a gap and continued to ask.

Gu Jingheng's breathing was a little rapid. He leaned close to Nan Yuan's ear and said in a hoarse and sexy voice, "Only my identity can suppress them."

They don't care about other people, so it would be a waste of time to go there.

The emperor is too busy to go, so only someone of his status is suitable at the moment.

Nan Yuan pursed her lips, she seemed to understand something.

Gu Jingheng cared about the reputation of benevolence and wisdom he had established outside, so he designed to make the princes kill each other, or to dismiss the princes under the guise of others, or to let the princes hand over power themselves.

He will not allow mistakes to happen to him.

These originally had nothing to do with Nan Yuan, but she suddenly thought of why Gu Jingheng insisted that she go to the Xie family to cancel the engagement instead of putting direct pressure on the Xie family.

Because he wanted his good reputation. The Xie family was also conferred the title more than 20 years ago, but they no longer had real power and were kept in captivity in the capital.

If the Xie family becomes what it is now, and is still forced by the royal family, none of the princes outside will be willing to give up power, and anyone with a little confidence will fight him to the death.

Therefore, he would never take action against the Xie family, at least he would not openly confront the Xie family.

Oh! So that's how it is!

If she wants to get rid of Gu Jingheng, the Xie family is really a good choice.

"Gu Jingheng, why are you..."

"Ayuan, don't ask about these irrelevant things." Gu Jingheng's eyes were extremely clear. He stared into Nanyuan's eyes and said, "You don't have to worry about these things. I have my own plans."

"But you, why are you so strange today? You used to be uninterested in these things... um..."

Nan Yuan knelt up, raised her head and covered his mouth.

We can't let him think about it any longer. If he thinks too much, his purpose will be exposed.

"Ah Heng, I heard that the Chu family outside the Great Wall has a daughter who is as beautiful as a flower and talented. I'm afraid you will fall in love with her at first sight and forget about me."
