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

Prince's Mansion, evening.

Three days have passed again, and the aphrodisiac has not yet worn off.

Gu Jingheng clenched his fists tightly, with sweat beading his forehead.

Hold on, hold on...

Finally, he walked towards the bedroom.

The cold moonlight fell on his body, as if it was covered with a layer of frost.

When I opened the door, I saw a small person curled up on the bed.

With eyes closed, he is very well behaved.

Gu Jingheng's heart suddenly softened.

He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her, but when his fingertips touched her skin, Nan Yuan opened her eyes.

"What are you doing?" The voice was a little hoarse and full of vigilance.

Nan Yuan sat up and shrank into the bed.

Gu Jingheng's originally tender features suddenly turned cold.

It's like this again.

Was it because he touched her that she was so disgusted?

It has been so many days, and it should be enough that he has spoiled her for such a long time.

But she was always angry with him.

Isn't it just putting a chain on her?

What's the big deal.

After all, he was too soft on her.

If she were thrown into the imperial prison, let alone torture, even if she was forced to stay there for ten days or half a month, she would have begged for mercy long ago.

But apart from not letting her leave the house, how else had he treated her unfairly?

Since she didn't want to eat the food, he changed several chefs and asked them to cook her favorite food in different ways.

The clothes were also made of the best materials, and the best embroiderer was hired to make them for her in the style she liked.

For fear that she would feel cold, the whole house was covered with expensive white fox carpets.

Knowing that she was afraid of the dark, they placed the best night-shining pearls in the room. But also to avoid disturbing her sleep, they covered the room with a layer of white gauze.

She still felt it was not enough and got angry with him.

"What?" Gu Jingheng narrowed his eyes, smiled, and said, "This is my bedroom. You are lying on my bed. Every stitch on your body was made by me. I didn't ask you for money, but you asked me for money?"

Nan Yuan wanted to say that he could just not give it to her and let her go. She would definitely not stay here for even a minute longer.

But there is no point in arguing with him about these things; it will only add to his troubles.

If he gets angry, I'm afraid I'll get another slap in the face.

By then, I’m afraid my right ear won’t be able to hear anything either.

No need.

Nan Yuan said nothing and lowered her head.

Gu Jingheng pinched her chin and forced her to look up.

"I didn't raise you to please me."

Hearing the anger in Gu Jingheng's voice, Nan Yuan actually wanted to smile, just to please him, but she hadn't smiled for a long time, and the corners of her mouth were stiff.

She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't.

Gu Jingheng sneered and changed the subject: "You haven't heard any news from outside for a long time, right?"

Nan Yuan didn't know what he wanted to say, so she just looked up at him.

"Tianqi is eyeing our Great Yong covetously. Soon, war will break out again on the border."

"There are not many military generals in the court. Nan Jiamu has just made contributions and is a good candidate to lead the army."

Nan Yuan was secretly worried, as if something bad was about to happen.

"On the battlefield, the situation changes rapidly, and it is normal for someone to die."

Gu Jingheng pinched Nan Yuan's hand with increasing force, and said cruelly: "Maybe one day you will be able to see your brother's head."

Gu Jingheng's eyes were filled with viciousness, like a wild beast staring at its prey.

Nan Yuan's lips trembled a little, but she still held back and said, "Is your highness the crown prince teasing the child?"

"When two armies are fighting, if our army loses a general first, won't it shake the morale of the army? Is Your Highness the Crown Prince trying to make fun of the Yong Empire?"

After hearing this, Gu Jingheng pulled Nan Yuan in front of him and laughed in a low voice, his laughter was eerie and strange.

"Of course I won't take the country lightly, but you think too highly of your brother. His death will not shake the morale of the army."

"But, you have to think about it, can your parents still bear the pain of losing a child?"

"Last time, you released your brother with your own hands, and he almost died outside for five years. This time, he could have spent the rest of his life in peace in the capital, but because of you, he died in an unclear way."

"Do you remember what your parents said about you before?"

"This time, I'm afraid they'll want to kill you to bury their son with you, right?"

Nan Yuan just felt a dull pain in her chest and couldn't breathe.

The relationship between her and her parents did start to crack after she let her brother go.

Those memories that she had buried deep in her heart suddenly came to mind when he mentioned them.

The angry faces and disappointed eyes of her father and mother appeared in her mind.

She knew that her parents had always been dissatisfied with her.

They blamed her for killing her brother and for being ignorant, but later, they placed all their hopes on her.

The hope mixed with resentment made her feel suffocated.

She longed for her parents' love, but could never get it.

This was also the reason why, after Gu Jingheng said just a few simple words to her, she followed him without looking back.

The little bit of love that Gu Jingheng let out from between his fingers made her bewildered.

Even with a bloody head he dared not look back.

When she looked back, no one was waiting for her.

No one has her back, no one will support her or love her. In fact, she has been alone from beginning to end.

One person makes the decision and carries it alone, not daring to trouble anyone else. No matter who he asks for help, he thinks in advance about what benefits he can bring to the other person.

It seems that when there are more benefits, you won’t think about any unnecessary things.

She never dared to tell these to anyone else, and only mentioned them to Gu Jingheng in her previous life.

Now, they have all turned into sharp weapons that stab her.

I want to cry, but my eyes are dry.

There was only helplessness and despair that swept over her and drowned her.

Nan Yuan's breathing became a little rapid. Every word he said made her bleed and tremble in pain.

In fact, even if she died, no one would remember her.

Only she herself always felt that her life was important.

But her own life is not as important as that of her whole family, and she feels very sorry for her family.

No matter if it was because she was willful and mischievous in her previous life, disregarding the family's reputation and clinging to Gu Jingheng without regard for decency, which hurt her parents' hearts; or if it was because she had not yet fulfilled her filial piety in this life, but because she angered Gu Jingheng, she had raised a sharp knife in her family that might fall at any time.

She already felt very sorry for her family and couldn't let them suffer any more misfortune.

"Your Highness, it's me...I'm wrong. I don't know what's good for me. It's all my fault..." Nan Yuan held Gu Jingheng's hand and begged, "Your Highness, whatever you want me to do, I'm fine. I just ask you not to...don't hurt my family, okay?"

Gu Jingheng loosened his hand and frivolously stroked Nan Yuan's cheek with his fingers.

The cold touch of the fingertips made Nan Yuan tremble.

Gu Jingheng's eyes were as dark as ink. He moved closer to her, his warm breath spraying on her neck.

"Wouldn't it be better if this were the case?"

Why spend so much energy to coax her?

Status, position, and power, which one of them could not crush her to death?

Which one can't make her obedient?

"Remember, don't be disrespectful to me from now on. Smile and try to please me. Do you understand?"

Nan Yuan's heart was filled with bitterness. How could she think that Gu Jingheng would be nice to her?

It was obvious that he had never shown any special care to her, and she had never taken him seriously, and only treated her with contempt and lust.

He is the prince. If he coaxes you a few words and spends a few days with you, you will really forget everything else.

Nan Yuan, you are so stupid.

She nodded: "I understand."

Gu Jingheng took out a pill and stuffed it into Nan Yuan's mouth: "Swallow it."

Looking at Nan Yuan’s little face turning red, her eyes gradually became blurred.

"What... is this?" Nan Yuan felt something strange coming from her body and asked.

"nice one."

A good thing to make her behave.

As the night deepens, red waves roll in the house...

For several days, Gu Jingheng had already obtained the antidote from Chu Zhixu, but he still stayed at Nan Yuan's place and lingered until death.

Nan Yuan is very obedient and does whatever he says.

I just don’t want to see anyone anymore. I don’t want to see any of the people serving me, and I don’t want to talk.

When Gu Jingheng came, she was always smiling, with a fake smile welded on her face, using up all her strength.

You can only take a break when there is no one around.

She seemed to be getting sicker, coughing up blood for days and even having hallucinations.

One moment she was young and enjoying the company of her parents, and the next moment her parents accused her of killing her brother;

One moment, Gu Jingheng from her previous life was saying sweet words to her, and the next moment, he was strangling her neck and trying to kill her.

So many, one moment I am happy, the next moment I feel like I am in hell.

But even so, when Gu Jingheng came, she still had to greet him with a smile.

Nan Yuan felt that she was going crazy under the high pressure all day long.

When Gu Jingheng finished dealing with the government affairs for the day and returned to the bedroom, Nan Yuan was lying on the bed, motionless.

He thought Nan Yuan was asleep, so he tiptoed over to her, only to find that her breathing was very shallow, almost imperceptible.

I got sick?

"Nan Yuan?"

Gu Jingheng frowned and reached out to touch her forehead. There was nothing unusual, but he couldn't wake her up.

He asked the maid and found out that Nan Yuan had been sleeping since he left in the morning.

The doctor was asked to take the patient's pulse, but she couldn't find anything.

Are you pretending to be sick again?

Otherwise, how do you explain that the female doctor can’t diagnose the disease?

Well, he would just stay here and see how long she could pretend.

As he was guarding, he suddenly remembered that he trained hawks when he was a child.

The eagle was flying in the sky, and he wanted to put the eagle in a cage.

At first, the eagle resisted fiercely. Later, he used many methods to teach it a lesson. After that, the eagle stopped eating and drinking, became weak, and loved to sleep. After a few days, it died.

This realization made Gu Jingheng's heart stagnate. Death?

He locked Nan Yuan up and threatened her with her family. How is this different from training an eagle?

If she wasn't pretending to be sick, but really had a disease that the doctor couldn't diagnose...

Gu Jingheng didn't dare to think about it anymore. He didn't dare to think about it further.

His eyes suddenly fell on the chain around Nan Yuan's neck and he looked at it for a long time.

After hesitating for a long time, Gu Jingheng finally untied her.

I moved her to another room and kept watch over her until noon the next day, when Nan Yuan finally woke up.

When Nan Yuan woke up, the first thing she saw was Gu Jingheng's bloodshot eyes.

As usual, Nan Yuan raised a perfect smile and asked softly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

But before she could finish, Gu Jingheng hugged her and choked up, "If you don't want to laugh, then don't laugh."

In fact, Nan Yuan’s acting skills were very poor, and he could almost see it at a glance.

I used to think that as long as she smiled at him, smiled and smiled, pretended, there would be at least a little bit of sincerity in her.

But he was a little scared now. He was afraid that Nan Yuan would be like the eagle and slowly lose his life.

Only then did Nan Yuan realize that she had moved to a new room and the chain around her neck was gone.

It's really unpredictable.

Before, she was chained without any reason, but now, she can be taken off just like that.

But as long as I stay here, who knows, there might be even more humiliating tricks waiting for me someday.

Whatever he says is just for listening, none of it can be realized.

Just like he promised her before that he would not hit her, but he did it quite a few times.

He is the prince. When he is in a good mood, how much sincerity can there be in the words he says to coax people?

If she took it seriously, she would be the only one who would get hurt.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is joking. It's not that I don't want to laugh." Nan Yuan lowered her eyes to hide her guilty conscience and said softly.

Hearing Nan Yuan say this, Gu Jingheng felt like something was blocking his heart and felt extremely uncomfortable.

"I remember you always wanted to learn how to ride a horse. How about I take you to the stable to learn how to ride a horse today?"

Nan Yuan smiled and shook her head: "No."

She didn't want to go out and meet people, didn't want to deal with it.

"You've been cooped up for so long, it's time to go out and get some fresh air, otherwise you'll get suffocated." Gu Jingheng coaxed again.

"Okay." Nan Yuan nodded.

In fact, why bother asking her?

She could never get the better of him, and whatever he said was what she did.

Gu Jingheng put clothes on her personally and put on a veil to cover her face.

Nan Yuan actually didn’t understand why a person could be so moody, just like she didn’t understand why clothes had to be so thin and worn so little in winter, but in summer one had to wear layer upon layer of gauze clothes.

On the way, Gu Jingheng hid her very well in the carriage and did not let anyone see her.

When we arrived at the horse farm, it was empty.

"Ayuan, give me your hand." Gu Jingheng stretched out his hand to her, and the sunlight shining on him covered him with a layer of glory.

So beautiful.

How can he live so happily?

Why did he torture her like this, but he acted as if nothing had happened?

Nan Yuan took a deep breath, stretched out her hand, and let him lead her around.

But it was only a circle, and Ah Qi came to find him and told him about what happened in the morning court today.

Gu Jingheng glanced at Nan Yuan. He had finally brought her out for a walk. If he left now...

Nan Yuan raised her head, looked at him with a smile, and said, "Your Highness, please go and do what you need. I'll just walk around here by myself."

It's the same with or without him?

This realization made Gu Jingheng very unhappy. In her previous life, she had been the one who pestered him the most. If she saw him distracted by something else, she would be unhappy for a while.

But now, it makes no difference whether he is there or not.

Seeing that Gu Jingheng looked unhappy, Nan Yuan didn't know what he was angry about, but she still had to give in and said softly, "It will be the same if I go back."

Gu Jingheng was filled with rage but had nowhere to vent it, so he just yelled at Ah Qi: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go sort out the documents?"

"...Yes, master." Ah Qi turned and left.

Gu Jingheng raised his head slightly and looked at the sky. After a while, he calmed down and looked at Nan Yuan and said, "Play here for a while. I will be back soon."

Nan Yuan nodded with a smile on her face.

As soon as Gu Jingheng left, the smile on Nan Yuan's face disappeared.

The horse farm was vast and there was no place to hide anyone, which meant there were no secret guards, and no one knew what she would do.

She turned to look at the horse, her eyes dark and unclear.

Gu Jingheng will be back soon. If the horse goes crazy, he will fall off.

If a horse passes over him, it will be either dead or crippled.

Nan Yuan took off the sachet on her body, crushed the pills inside and sprinkled them on the fodder.

Holding the hay, he stretched out his hand towards the horse and slowly approached it...
