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

Nan Yuan looked at her wound with self-mockery.

Yes, so much blood was shed, anyone with eyes could see it.

Even a shopkeeper who had nothing to do with her knew to care about her injury, but what about Gu Jingheng?

Didn't he see it?

Oh, I guess his mind was on Chu Yunni, so even if he saw it, he didn’t think it was important.

"Get me a doctor."

They don't care about their own lives, but they do care.

She wants to live well, live well and live her life well.

"Hey."

The shopkeeper had to go find a doctor immediately.

Nan Yuan went to the backyard to check on Bai Zhi's condition. Fortunately, it was treated in time, and she would be fine if she took good care of herself in the future.

"You guys take her back to the princess's mansion." Nan Yuan ordered the two people next to her.

"Yes."

Nan Yuan patted Bai Zhi's hand and said, "Take good care of your injuries and don't worry about anything else."

Bai Zhi's eyes were filled with tears, and she didn't know whether it was because of pain or because she was touched.

After sending Bai Zhi away, Nan Yuan had someone bandage the wound on her hand and then ordered, "It's getting late today, and you've all been frightened. Go home and have a good rest. I'll give you another day off tomorrow, and your wages will be paid as usual."

When the shopkeeper heard this, he was delighted and quickly thanked her: "Thank you, young lady. Thank you very much."

Nan Yuan asked for another key and asked everyone else to leave.

The room was empty and the floor was a mess.

Nan Yuan stood in the mess, her thin shoulders trembling slightly.

The pain in my heart spread, making it hard to breathe.

She clutched the clothes around her chest tightly, and her body slowly slid down and collapsed on the ground.

"Nan Yuan, you are such a loser!"

Didn't you say you wanted to end all ties with him? Then what does it have to do with you who he supports?

Who do you think you are? Why do you need him to support you?

It's normal for him to be with his sweetheart.

Do you feel so uncomfortable every time you see him and Chu Yunni?

Are you going to throw yourself into a flame like you did in your previous life, and not stop until you sacrifice your life?

Wasn't the pain of being skinned in your previous life enough? Do you want to do it again?

"Ah!" Nan Yuan threw all the items on the counter to the ground as if to vent her anger, making a crackling sound.

She hugged her head, curled up on the ground, and burst into tears.

General's Mansion.

As night fell, the general's mansion was brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Gu Jingheng sat at the top of the hall with a warm look on his face.

"Your Highness, I would like to offer you a toast. Thank you for your support." Chu Yanzhi raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Gu Jingheng took a sip and said with a faint smile: "Yanzhi, what are you talking about? I just value your talent."

Listening to Gu Jingheng's words, Chu Yanzhi couldn't hide the smile on his face.

When he was at home, his father valued his sister more and never praised him like this. Now that he is valued by the prince, he is naturally happy.

Now my father is still outside the Great Wall. When he comes to Beijing, he will be proud of him when he sees that he has become the confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Gu Jingheng frowned and took in Chu Yanzhi's expression.

He calmly turned the cup in his hand, but the smile on his face suddenly froze.

"What's wrong, Your Highness? What's troubling you?"

As soon as Chu Yanzhi saw that Gu Jingheng's expression was not right, he hurriedly expressed his concern.

Gu Jingheng raised his eyes and looked around, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

Chu Yanzhi immediately understood what he meant and said, "You all go down."

All the maids and servants left, leaving only Gu Jingheng and the Chu siblings in the room.

"Yanzhi, you don't know that I was annoyed by those old guys in the court today. They relied on their seniority and ignored me."

"I want to punish them, ah... I'm afraid those censors will scold me to death, it's so annoying."

"It's still Yanzhi's deep loneliness. It would be great if everyone in the court was like Yanzhi."

Gu Jingheng concealed the calculation in his eyes, his face full of regret, and said: "Forget it, what's the point of saying all this, come, Yanzhi, continue drinking."

Having said that, Gu Jingheng raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"……it is good."

Chu Yanzhi drank absentmindedly, his mind focused on what Gu Jingheng had just said.

He looked at Chu Yunni who was sitting next to him, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he bumped into her.

"You usually have so many clever ideas, why don't you know how to speak now?" Chu Yanzhi said in a low voice.

It is their honor to be able to relieve the worries of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

At this time, why is his sister still looking like a fangirl?

Don’t you know that only when the family becomes prosperous can it help her to ascend to the position of Crown Princess?

Women really can't figure things out when faced with big things!

Chu Yunni was staring at Gu Jingheng in a daze, so she had no idea what they were saying.

After being bumped by Chu Yan, she came back to her senses and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong?"

Chu Yanzhi had no choice but to repeat to Chu Yunni what Gu Jingheng had just said.

Chu Yunni raised her eyes and looked at Gu Jingheng, only to see that he had a sad face and was drinking alone.

Chu Yunni's eyes flashed.

She suddenly thought of a good idea and whispered something in Chu Yanzhi's ear.

Gu Jingheng saw all the little movements of the Chu brother and sister. The corners of his lips curved into an arc with an ambiguous meaning, and he continued to drink without making a sound.

After listening to Chu Yunni's words, Chu Yanzhi hesitated and asked, "Will this work?"

He felt that this method was really... risky.

"Why not?" Chu Yunni snorted coldly, and said: "Just do as I say. You are my brother, how could I possibly harm you?"

The aristocratic families monopolize the officialdom, and the prince wants to strengthen central power. Isn't this the time for the imperial examination system to come into play?

Chu Yunni had already made up her mind. She had come to this dynasty for more than ten years just for the opportunity to show her talents like now.

If she could help the prince establish the imperial examination system, suppress the aristocracy, and create a peaceful and prosperous era, she would be able to leave her name in history and become a role model for thousands of women in the world.

"Yanzhi, have you thought of a solution?"

Gu Jingheng looked at Chu Yanzhi with a smile on his face.

Chu Yanzhi repeated what Chu Yunni said: "Open the imperial examinations to recruit scholars and employ common people."

Chu Yunni felt that Chu Yanzhi's explanation was not enough, so she carefully explained all the details.

After listening to it, Gu Jingheng's expression was stunned at first, and then ecstasy appeared in his eyes.

He stood up shakily and walked towards Chu Yanzhi.

Chu Yanzhi hurried forward to help him up: "Your Highness, be careful."

Gu Jingheng looked drunk, but only his eyes were clear. He held Chu Yanzhi's hand tightly and said, "Yanzhi, you understand my heart."

"Just...just do as you say." Gu Jingheng smiled and patted Chu Yanzhi's hand, his feet unsteady.

Chu Yan was startled and quickly reached out to embrace Gu Jingheng.

Gu Jingheng waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay."

"I am so happy to have such a talented person like Yanzhi!"

I must be very happy, because I was worried that I didn’t have a pathfinder!

In his previous life, he followed the ancient books and recruited scholars from the common people, which violated the interests of the major families and caused heavy losses. This method was thus shelved and the court was still controlled by the major families.

Although he has never given up the practices of his previous life, he dare not be as reckless as he was in his previous life.

Just by chance, a pair of idiots came, so he should take advantage of them and let them attract the firepower of the aristocratic families?

"I'll leave this matter to you. If you need anything, just go find Zhaixing and ask him to do it for you!"

Gu Jingheng stumbled to his feet and raised his glass to toast him: "Drink, then..."

Before he could finish his words, Gu Jingheng fell down.

"His Royal Highness!"

Chu Yanzhi and Chu Yunni originally wanted to help Gu Jingheng to the inner room to rest, but they were taken away by Gu Jingheng's personal guards.

"It is inconvenient for His Royal Highness to stay at the General's Mansion, so I will take His Royal Highness back with me."

Hearing this, Chu Yanzhi didn't think much about it and handed the person over to his personal guards.

When Gu Jingheng opened his eyes again after being taken to the carriage by the personal guards, he no longer looked drunk.

"Master, are we going back home now?"

"Go to the Princess's Mansion."

He had to go find his A Yuan. He must have scared her today, so he had to comfort her.

"Yes."
