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

"You know what I want to ask, why don't you tell me quickly?" The eldest princess retracted her leg and kicked Nan Jiamu on the shoulder with a cold look in her eyes.

Nan Jiamu glanced at the princess, put her legs aside, and continued, "I originally wanted to use the power of the court to eliminate all those who disobeyed me in the Black Armor Army, but I didn't expect the prince to go there in person. My plan can only be put aside."

Hearing this, the eldest princess' expression did not change much. She understood Nan Jiamu's choice, and protecting herself was the most important thing.

Once Gu Jingheng discovered something wrong, not to mention his life, all his plans over the years would be in vain.

Over the years, she has become very familiar with Gu Jingheng's methods.

She knew very well that she had been living under Gu Jingheng's surveillance all these years. Her every move, every meal, nothing could be hidden from him as long as he wanted to know.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone through so much trouble, being both an aide and a male favorite, to meet Nan Jiamu under Gu Jingheng's nose.

"The military token you handed in was also real?"

"Your Highness the Princess, do you think I dare to go up there pretending to be someone I'm not? I don't want to live anymore." Nan Jiamu spread his hands and said helplessly.

"You have Nan Yuan as your life-saving talisman, what are you afraid of?"

Nan Jiamu paused and said seriously: "She is not a life-saving talisman, she is my sister."

The princess smiled disdainfully, then continued, "Okay, she is your sister, but she is also our greatest life saver. So, I have trained you for so many years, do you really not have any backup plans?"

"The military token is real, and I have also left behind a portion of the Black Armor Army's elite troops for Your Highness to command." Nan Jiamu told him everything.

Hearing this, the eldest princess curled her lips and smiled: "It's worth it that I have supported you for so many years."

"I have told you everything you want to know, so shouldn't you also help me solve my doubts?"

Nan Jiamu took the risk to come here, naturally he also wanted to get to the bottom of it.

After all, if the prince discovered that they were forming a clique for personal gain, it would be no small matter.

The eldest princess looked up at him and said nothing, which was considered as acknowledging that he could ask questions, but whether to answer or not depended on her mood.

"Your Highness, why are you recruiting soldiers?"

He really didn't understand what was the point of the princess doing all this. A woman tried her best to gain a good reputation among the people and arrange manpower in the army and the court. What did she want to do?

Do you want to usurp the throne?

The princess snorted coldly, confirming what he was thinking: "Why, no? Do you look down on me? Do you also think that I am not worthy of that position like those pedantic ministers?"

She learned to read at the age of three and started learning poetry at the age of five. In just five years, she completed the curriculum of the Imperial Academy. In what way was she inferior to the prince of his father's family?

Is it true that she is excluded from the candidate for succession to the throne simply because she is a girl?

But those fool-like brothers can enter and leave the court openly and make friends with ministers?

And she, just wanting to be like them, had to face so much resistance.

Why?

She is also of legitimate royal blood, so why can't she fight for it?

"……No."

Nan Jiamu was stunned. She didn't expect that the eldest princess actually had such an idea.

He was stunned for a long time before he found his voice and explained, "If all the princes of His Majesty are useless, Your Highness can fight for it, but... it's just that His Highness the Crown Prince seems..."

While explaining the reason for his surprise, he analyzed the pros and cons and the chances of success for her.

No, there is no chance of winning at all.

Gu Jingheng is not only not a waste, but he is also very capable.

He is the legitimate son of His Majesty, and a wise crown prince who works hard to govern the country both among the people and in the court. What can the eldest princess use to compete with him?

"I know what you are thinking." The princess blew on the nail polish she had just made and said calmly, "Every one of my father's sons has the possibility of ascending the throne, except Gu Jingheng. It is impossible."

"No matter how capable he is, no matter how wise he is, no matter how many people support him in the court, he will never be my opponent."

The eldest princess raised a smile, bold and unrestrained.

Nan Jiamu didn’t understand why it was impossible for Gu Jingheng to ascend to the throne. Wasn’t he the crown prince?

Nan Jiamu thought so and asked this question, but he did not get a definite answer from the princess.

"Just wait and see. He won't be the crown prince for long."

Gu Jingheng, who was being talked about by them, was currently sitting in the study of the Prince's Mansion handling government affairs.

"Where did you go yesterday? Do you know that I waited for you in the Prince's Mansion for a whole day, but you didn't come back all day."

Shen Zhaixing walked back and forth in Gu Jingheng's study with her hands on her hips, looking very anxious.

The Gu Jingheng he knew was not someone who would disappear without saying a word. He finally had some important business to discuss with Gu Jingheng, but in the end he couldn't find him.

"yesterday?"

Gu Jingheng stopped writing, and some images flooded into his mind.

Naturally, he stayed on Nan Yuan's couch all night last night, and today, Nan Yuan was coming to see him again.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Gu Jingheng's lips.

"Are you going to look for Nan Yuan?" Shen Zhaixing looked at Gu Jingheng's expression and an incredible idea came to his mind.

"No, she's married, why are you still obsessed with her? You have feelings for her, but she has no feelings for you!"

Shen Zhaixing really couldn't figure out what on earth Gu Jingheng saw in Nan Yuan?

Good-looking?

Oh, there is really nothing to say about this, it is indeed beautiful, but are there no other good-looking people?

He is the prince, he can get whatever he wants, but he has to get entangled with a married woman!

For the sake of a woman, he even ignored his business. This was not at all like the Gu Jingheng he knew.

"If you don't want the tongue anymore, just say it." Gu Jingheng looked at Shen Zhaixing coldly.

Of course he cared about Nan Yuan's marriage, otherwise he wouldn't have returned to Beijing in anger as soon as he heard the news.

But now it seems that Nan Yuan getting married is actually better for both of them.

For him, he no longer had to spend so much time hiding her and preventing others from discovering that she was his weakness and using Nan Yuan to threaten him.

Because no one would have thought that he, the crown prince, would have a relationship with a married woman.

The remaining time can be used to better handle government affairs and accomplish great tasks.

For Nan Yuan, the time she has been married has not made her as idle as she was in her previous life, and naturally she will not get sick from boredom like in her previous life.

As for getting married, it’s just for fun.

In the end, after he has dealt with all the matters, Nan Yuan will still return to his hands.

He had already paved the way for Nan Yuan to become the Crown Princess, and was just waiting for her to marry into the Crown Prince's Mansion in grand style.

"You should go now. Don't delay her from coming to see me..."
