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

For three consecutive days, Gu Jingheng wanted to go see Nan Yuan, but was stopped outside the door by Nan Jiamu.

Nan Yuan hasn't woken up yet, but fortunately there has been progress on Shen Zhaixing's side.

Ah Qi actually colluded with Chu Yunni and even said that Chu Yunni was more suitable to be the Crown Princess. He even teamed up with Nan Yuan's maid Yue Ran to secretly give Nan Yuan two doses of poison.

It’s such a big circle, and those who are colluding with them are the people they trust the most. No wonder they can’t find out anything, and no wonder they were deceived so badly.

When Gu Jingheng arrived, Yue Ran had bitten her tongue and committed suicide. She said that she was deceived and didn't know that the medicine was fatal, so she died to atone for her crime.

Chu Yunni is protected by Ah Qi and her whereabouts are unknown.

"You have been following me for twenty years, right?" Gu Jingheng glanced at Ah Qi.

Ah Qi was tortured until he was covered in blood. He collapsed on the ground like a dead dog, gasping for breath.

"……Yes."

"Your subordinate... I do not ask the master to spare my life, I only ask the master to consider the overall situation. Princess Yun Ni is a genius and will definitely be able to help the master..." Ah Qi could not say the rest of the words. His eyes were wide open, his pupils were dilated, and his mouth was open, but he could not close it.

Gu Jingheng glanced at him indifferently and said, "Throw it out and feed it to the dogs."

The secret guard he hired was indeed stubborn and refused to reveal the antidote until his death.

The capital was under martial law, people were in panic, and many of the common people complained. Ministers and even the emperor began to put pressure on Gu Jingheng to lift the alert.

Don't listen to any of it.

In an instant, the reputation accumulated over more than 20 years took a sharp turn for the worse.

Instead, it was the eldest princess who appeased the ministers and her reputation became even better than before.

There were even rumors in the capital that the prince was not of legitimate blood and was not the emperor's biological son, but Gu Jingheng didn't bother to pay attention.

He put aside the affairs of state and stayed with Nan Yuan all day long, and no one's advice was of any use.

God helps those who work hard, and the antidote was finally found.

Gu Jingheng brought the antidote and watched Nan Yuan take it with his own eyes.

"Your Highness, please leave." Nan Jiamu extended his hand and asked Gu Jingheng to leave.

"You are destroying the bridge after crossing it?" Shen Zhaixing felt sorry for Gu Jingheng. Even if the poison was cured, the person would still be driven away?

"Xiao Yuan'er won't want to see you." Nan Jiamu still said the same thing.

But it was this sentence that made Gu Jingheng lose the motivation to continue.

Yes, if she doesn't want to see me, why should I struggle here?

Gu Jingheng took a deep breath, turned and left.

"Are you really letting go?" Chu Zhixu, who was waiting outside the yard, suddenly asked.

Gu Jingheng sat on the steps, not caring at all whether this was proper or not. He looked up at the sky and talked to Chu Zhixu about his past life.

"I thought she had fallen in love with someone else, and she thought I was heartless, but it turned out to be all false. The skinning torture she mentioned turned out to be true, but I just thought it was made up by her as an excuse to not continue with me."

Although Chu Zhixu thought this was a fantasy, he did not refute it, but just asked: "What about you? How are you?"

"Me?" Gu Jingheng smiled. "After I couldn't find Nan Yuan, I was still the crown prince, and then I became the emperor. I recovered all the kingdoms and brought peace to the world. I did everything my father wanted me to do."

"I thought it was time for me to do what I wanted to do, so I started taking Wu Shi San, and in my dreams I saw the person I wanted to see."

"I took it for a long time. I was in a daze. I don't know how long it was. I might have died. When I opened my eyes again, I was back."

Chu Zhixu sighed and murmured, "No wonder, no wonder he suddenly started to pester Nan Yuan without any expectation, and even to the point where he refuses to let go."

It turns out there is such a thing as Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly.

Chu Zhixu didn't continue asking, "Are you trying to entangle me?"

There will definitely be a entanglement unless he dies.

"Get out of here, I don't know you, stay away from me!" A woman's scream came from inside the room.

Nan Yuan's.

Chu Zhixu and Gu Jingheng looked at each other and ran into the room together.

Nan Yuan looked at Nan Jiamu with great caution and a look of alertness on her face.

"Xiao Yuan'er, I'm your brother, don't you recognize me?" Nan Jiamu stretched out his hand tentatively.

Unfortunately, Nan Jiamu’s hand had just touched Nan Yuan when she knocked it down.

"Nonsense!" Nan Yuan huddled at the end of the bed and said, "My brother joined the army ten years ago and has not returned yet. You are lying to me. You want to use me to deal with Gu Jingheng, right? Who sent you?"

"The Li family? The Chu family? Or the Tianqi people?"

Gu Jingheng, who was standing outside the door, heard everything. Li family, Chu family, Tianqi?

Is it possible...

"Your Highness!" Nan Yuan's gaze suddenly fell on Gu Jingheng, and she ran towards him barefoot.

Gu Jingheng held the person in his arms and felt uneasy for a long time.

It was Nan Yuan who returned, the Nan Yuan from the previous life who returned, the Nan Yuan whose heart and eyes were filled with him who returned.

The heart-eating powder can confuse a person's mind. I'm afraid Nan Yuan has forgotten everything about this life and only has his past life left.

"Your Highness..." Nan Yuan hugged his waist tightly, tears falling down. She looked up at Gu Jingheng, her eyes red, and said aggrievedly: "Why did you come just now?"

Gu Jingheng hugged her tighter, afraid of letting go, but that didn't exist.

"Little Yuan'er..."

Before Nan Jiamu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Gu Jingheng, who said, "Deputy General Nan, please go out first. I will explain to you later."

Nan Jiamu wanted to say something, but Chu Zhixu came closer to him and said, "You just woke up, you can't be stimulated, talk slowly."

He could only go out.

Chu Zhixu closed the door considerately, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Gu Jingheng picked her up, put her on the couch, and carefully wiped the dust off Nan Yuan's feet. Only then did he calm down.

"Well, I'm late, it's all my fault." Gu Jingheng lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly.

Nan Yuan stretched out her arms, wrapped them around his neck, and buried herself in his arms: "If you don't like me, you can just tell me. Why did you send me to Chu Yunni to torture? Do you know that she wants to peel off my skin and make a kite?"

Gu Jingheng's breathing stagnated, and he felt heartbroken when he listened to Nan Yuan talking about her past life again.

No wonder she reacted so violently when he called her Little Kite?

"She peeled off my skin, but how come I'm still fine?" Nan Yuan looked at her hands, her expression dazed. She clearly saw herself turned into a pool of blood and flesh, clearly...

Nan Yuan hit her head hard. Why couldn’t she figure it out?

Gu Jingheng held Nan Yuan's hand and explained, "I know you've been wronged. I've dealt with everyone. You're fine. Look, are you okay now?"

Nan Yuan looked up at him, then looked at herself. Apart from a few wounds on her hands, she seemed to be fine. However, the pain of skin peeling was still imprinted in her mind, so real.

"My head hurts..." Nan Yuan frowned, feeling something was wrong.

"Don't think about it. Just don't think about it if you have a headache, okay? I'm by your side now. If there's anything you want to know, just ask me, okay?" Gu Jingheng stroked Nan Yuan's hair affectionately and coaxed her softly.

Nan Yuan looked at him seriously, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Then why did you let Ah Qi take me out and send me to Chu Yunni?"

Gu Jingheng patted Nan Yuan's back and rested his chin on the top of her hair, saying, "It's my fault. Ah Qi betrayed me, and I didn't notice. That's why there was a misunderstanding. Most of the previous misunderstandings also started from this."

He thought about his previous life when he asked Ah Qi to check on Nan Yuan's situation, and all he got was that Nan Yuan had fallen in love with someone else.

How confusing!

I have been deceived by such a villain for two lifetimes!

Nan Yuan suddenly came out of Gu Jingheng's arms and looked him up and down.

"What's wrong, A Yuan?"

Gu Jingheng frowned. Was there any loophole in what he just said?

Nan Yuan held his face and looked at it carefully, then took his hand and felt his pulse seriously for a long time before putting it down.

"You're so angry. You must have been very sad during this period." Nan Yuan looked at him with a distressed look.

Being betrayed by your confidant must be very sad.

Gu Jingheng suddenly laughed out loud and held her in his arms again: "I'm very sad, so A Yuan can't leave me. You have to stay with me all the time, okay?"

Nan Yuan hugged him back, raised her head, looked at him, and said seriously: "As long as you don't chase me away, I will stay with you. If one day you find me annoying, just tell me directly, and I will definitely turn around and..."

"That day will never come." Gu Jingheng interrupted Nan Yuan.

"I mean if."

"No ifs."

Nan Yuan sighed slightly and said, "Okay, okay, you are upset now, you have the final say."

After hugging for a long time, Nan Yuan's hands felt a little sore. She looked up and asked, "Aren't you busy recently?"

After hearing Nan Yuan's words, Gu Jingheng suddenly thought of something and shouted to the outside: "Chu Zhixu!"

Soon, Chu Zhixu walked in.

Nan Yuan also immediately crawled out of Gu Jingheng's arms, folded her hands, and sat obediently aside.

After Gu Jingheng discovered this, he pulled Nan Yuan into his arms again.

Knowing that she was embarrassed, he did not act too aggressively. He just sat closer to her. He took Nan Yuan's hand and said, "Take her pulse."

"I'm fine." Nan Yuan said.

"Check it out, so I can feel at ease."

After Gu Jingheng said so, Nan Yuan had no choice but to do as he asked. She obediently stretched out her right hand and let Chu Zhixu take her pulse.

Chu Zhixu still had that smiling look on his face, but after taking his pulse, the smile disappeared.

Gu Jingheng was quick to notice something was wrong, and his heart instantly tensed up: "What's going on?"

Seeing the serious expressions of these two people, Nan Yuan couldn't help but feel scared.

Chu Zhixu signaled Gu Jingheng to be quiet, looked at Nan Yuan, and said, "The other hand."

Nan Yuan had no choice but to reach out her hand again.

Chu Zhixu checked his pulse again and smiled again.

Nan Yuan asked nervously: "What serious illness do I have?"

A doctor should not treat himself. Nan Yuan did not care about anything else at this time. He stretched out his hand to take his own pulse, and his face became serious in an instant.

Now Gu Jingheng was the only one left to worry.

"what happened?"

"You can say it yourself. I don't care." Chu Zhixu smiled, turned around and left.

Gu Jingheng looked at Nan Yuan and said nervously, "Ayuan, what's wrong? Tell me, no matter what happened, you should let me know."

Nan Yuan frowned, looked at Gu Jingheng, shook her head and sighed.

"...I'm pregnant, but..." Nan Yuan sighed, but Gu Jingheng was extremely happy, and an unstoppable smile appeared on his cheeks.

"Don't laugh. I've been taking contraceptive pills for five years. How can I get pregnant now? I..." Nan Yuan felt worried just thinking about it. She was afraid that she couldn't keep the baby in her belly.

Gu Jingheng smiled softly, hugged Nan Yuan's shoulders, kissed her on the forehead, and said, "What contraceptive pills? There's no such thing. The child is fine."

It’s great that he and A Yuan have a child.

In this way, even if A Yuan remembered something, she wouldn't be able to bear it for the sake of the child, right?

He knew it was a mean thing to do, but he was terribly afraid.

Nan Yuan was very confused and asked a few more questions. Gu Jingheng explained everything to her, and gradually, she no longer had any doubts.

"Let's go to the palace to spend time with our mother some other day. And I'm ready for the wedding." Gu Jingheng looked at Nan Yuan with some anticipation.

"See... the Queen?" Didn't he always forbid her from seeing him? And why was they getting married so suddenly?

"You should call her mother." Gu Jingheng corrected.

After recuperating for more than half a month, Nan Yuan finally recovered, and Gu Jingheng took her into the palace.

As for getting married, Nan Yuan said no.

When she saw the scars on her face, she didn't want to wear her wedding dress like that. If she applied scar removal cream now, she was afraid it would be bad for the child, so she said she would get married after giving birth to the child.

Gu Jingheng didn't want her to have any regrets, so he had no choice but to do this.

As the saying goes, giving birth is extremely dangerous for a woman.

He was also afraid that something might happen, so when the baby was just over a month old, he already prepared a midwife, a doctor, and even various elixirs.

He almost took out the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum that the emperor hid in the palace, but he gave up after the imperial physician and Nan Yuan and others repeatedly persuaded him that it was unnecessary.

The Queen and Nan Yuan had a very pleasant chat and drove Gu Jingheng out.

There was no other way, he could only wait in the yard and look around from time to time.

It was not until the afternoon that Nan Yuan came out.

Nan Yuan's eyes were red, as if she had been crying, which made Gu Jingheng very distressed. He asked quickly: "What's wrong? What did mother say to you? If we don't like it, we won't listen. We are the ones who live our lives, not..."

"Gu Jingheng, you are so pitiful!" Nan Yuan hugged Gu Jingheng's neck and sobbed softly.

Gu Jingheng was stunned. It was the Queen who told Nan Yuan that he was sent to the frontier when he was a child.

He sighed, "It's all right, why is mother telling you all this? It's all in the past."

Nan Yuan sniffed and said, "Yes, it's all in the past. I will treat you well in the future."

"Okay, then you must never leave me."

"Gu Jingheng, you've been worrying a lot lately."

"Then you promise not to leave me."

"Okay, I promise."

Under the setting sun, two people walked out of the palace holding hands, their backs forming a pair.
