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

"A Yuan."

When Nan Yuan came out, she saw Gu Jingheng talking to Shen Zhaixing, and the two did not seem to be having a very pleasant conversation.

Seeing Nan Yuan coming out, Gu Jingheng looked at Shen Zhaixing and said, "Let's talk about this later."

Shen Zhaixing looked at Nan Yuan, then at Gu Jingheng, and finally sighed helplessly and left.

"Let's go home." Gu Jingheng smiled gently at Nan Yuan.

Nan Yuan nodded.

After getting on the carriage, Nan Yuan wanted to tell him that she was going to Cha Yaju, but after hesitating for a long time, she still didn't know how to start the conversation.

Gu Jingheng never mentioned anything about what happened on October 9th, as if it had never happened. It was obvious that he had a knot in his heart.

If she spoke rashly, she was afraid it would backfire.

"Do you have something to say to me?" Gu Jingheng took the initiative to ask when he saw Nan Yuan seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Nan Yuan's eyes were a little erratic. After thinking for a moment, she changed the subject and said, "Have you been very busy recently? Has something happened?"

Nan Yuan just asked casually and didn't expect him to tell her anything.

He never told her these things, so Nan Yuan didn't have any high expectations. He was just trying to change the subject.

Hearing Nan Yuan's words, Gu Jingheng was stunned. He really didn't expect Nan Yuan to ask him such a question.

How long has it been since she cared about him?

Ever since the incident was brought to the government half a year ago, Nan Yuan seemed to have no concern for him at all.

Now, he actually took the initiative to ask about his situation.

Indeed, time is the best medicine to heal everything.

All that happened before is in the past, and now they can start over.

He is suspicious, but he will change; he is distrustful, but he will change; he is self-righteous, but he will also change.

In the future, everything will move in a good direction.

After waiting for a while, I didn't receive a reply from Gu Jingheng, which was understandable.

Nan Yuan glanced at it, but didn't care and continued to keep her head down.

Seeing Nan Yuan's reaction, Gu Jingheng knew that he had been silent for too long, causing Nan Yuan to misunderstand him, so he quickly said, "Busy, a lot of people have been giving me trouble lately."

"Making trouble?" Nan Yuan was a little confused. Is there anyone who dares to make trouble for him openly?

She only knew that there were some rumors cursing him among the people, but she didn't know what would happen in the court that would be unfavorable to him.

"Yes," Gu Jingheng hugged Nan Yuan in his arms and said, "Recently, Tianqi has repeatedly invaded our border town of Dayong. After a truce for nearly ten years, they are now ready to make a move."

"This war will have to be fought sooner or later. If we don't fight now, we will have to fight sooner or later. We might as well defeat them and there will be no more war in the future."

Nan Yuan was horrified when she heard this. Why was there going to be a war so soon?

In his previous life, wasn’t Gu Jingheng a peace advocate?

"Are you going to war?"

"But are you worried that I will get injured while going on the expedition?" Gu Jingheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

Nan Yuan's mouth twitched. Are you teasing a child?

The commander-in-chief was sitting in the central tent. How badly did he command the battle that he was captured by the enemy?

Are you kidding?

Nan Yuan did not refute, and followed his meaning and asked: "Will you be hurt?"

"If I don't go to war, I won't get hurt." Gu Jingheng didn't keep it a secret any longer: "I plan to let Hua Qichuan go."

"Oh." Nan Yuan nodded without much emotional fluctuation. She didn't know how to fight a war, and Gu Jingheng must have his plans for sending troops.

Seeing that Nan Yuan did not show any sign of worry about Hua Qichuan, Gu Jingheng was in a good mood.

Just don’t care about Hua Qichuan.

Realizing that he was secretly comparing again, Gu Jingheng quickly stopped the upward curve of his lips.

It doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if I care. Nan Yuan can only be his and can only be with him.

"Because of the upcoming war, are you closely investigating the spies that Tianqi has planted in the capital?"

"There is one reason. Another reason is that I have captured Chu Fengyuan and am on my way to Beijing. There are too many people in Beijing who know about this. I don't want them to know about this, so as to avoid any complications."

Chu Fengyuan, the father of Chu Yanzhi and Chu Yunni.

He not only caught Apocalypse's spies, but also some guys who stretched their hands too far.

"A Yuan, I remember everything I promised you."

"Don't you dislike Chu Yunni? It will be soon. This month or before the New Year, I will hand her over to you. You can do whatever you want with her."

Nan Yuan was startled, and suddenly looked up at Gu Jingheng: "Chu Yunni?"

"Why are you so excited?" Gu Jingheng scratched her nose lightly and said teasingly.

This was what he had promised Nan Yuan at the beginning, and he would naturally not forget it. He couldn't do anything at that time because they were still useful. Now, once Chu Fengyuan arrived in the capital, they would no longer have any value.

Nan Yuan didn't say anything.

How could she not be excited?!

In her past and present lives, Chu Yunni almost took her life twice, and her brother's fingers were also broken in their hands. How could she forget?

But... doesn’t Gu Jingheng care a lot about Chu Yunni?

Why did you suddenly change your gender now?

No, he didn't actually change.

Chu Yunni was very important to him in his previous life, so he could use her as a tool to vent his anger and hand her over to Chu Yunni for her to deal with as she pleased.

In this life, perhaps he felt that he could no longer control her, and Chu Yunni was no longer that important to him, so he could hand Chu Yunni over to her for disposal just to make her smile.

There is actually no difference in essence. It just depends on who is more important to Gu Jingheng at a certain point in time.

"What's wrong, A Yuan?"

Gu Jingheng saw expressions of surprise, delight, and then disappointment on Nan Yuan's face in an instant.

He didn't know what Nan Yuan was thinking about, and why she suddenly had so many different emotions.

"No, nothing..." Nan Yuan felt that she should be happy, but she couldn't be happy.

In Gu Jingheng's heart, she and Chu Yunni were just objects, objects that could be given away at any time. Their life and death were in his hands, and they had no say over them.

sad.

There is only sadness, no joy.

She didn't even dare to imagine what would happen to her if Gu Jingheng got tired of her one day.

There are so many beauties in the world, and there are also many interesting people. Gu Jingheng is the prince, and there will always be many newcomers for him to choose from. By then, how much of his sincerity will be left for herself?

If you use your beauty to please others, your life will be like floating duckweed.

She shouldn't have indulged herself in the golden cage that Gu Jingheng built for her. After dying once, she should have learned her lesson.

"I just heard that Chu Yunni is regarded as a goddess. She is very popular now. Why did you send her to me in public? Wouldn't it arouse suspicion?"

After hearing Nan Yuan's concerns, Gu Jingheng was slightly stunned, then he chuckled and said, "Ayuan, have you ever heard the saying, if you want to kill someone, you must make him crazy?"

"The higher you lift, the harder you fall."

He paused, as if hesitating about how to describe Chu Yunni: "She does have some weird ideas in her head, but they are just ideas, she doesn't have any real skills."

Just like what Chu Yunni talked about, the explosives, the warships, and the thousand kilograms of grain per mu, it sounded good to say it, but no one saw the real thing. He wasted a lot of manpower and resources on her, but in the end, it was all in vain.

What we do have are just some useless poems and songs that came from nowhere.

None of them were written by her. What kind of god could write hundreds of poems in a day, sometimes sad, sometimes bold and unrestrained? How could the style be so varied?

He felt that Chu Yunni should not call herself a talented woman, she was more suitable for writing storybooks and performing crosstalk.

Nan Yuan keenly noticed the loophole in Gu Jingheng's words and asked, "Why do you insist on making her the goddess?"

"Isn't it said that the king's power is granted by God? I lack a way to shut everyone up. It's not appropriate for me to say it myself, so it would be best if I could use the so-called gods to say it."

As for whether it is true or false, how many people care?

All that's missing is someone who can speak up.

"Besides, how can a goddess stay in the human world for long?"

After Chu Yunni has helped him to finish his task, he will send the goddess to heaven.

It is only natural for the goddess to pass away and no one can say no.

"you……"

Nan Yuan understood what Gu Jingheng wanted to do and looked at him with some horror. He was completely squeezing out the last of Chu Yunni's value.

Considering Guan Yu Jingheng's personality, how could someone who knew his secret continue to live in this world?

From the moment he started to build up momentum and promoted Chu Yunni as a goddess, Chu Yunni's death was doomed. He was just using her as a gift to pay tribute to Buddha and telling her how Chu Yunni would die.

"What about the Weinan earthquake?"

"I have already evacuated the people."

"What about the eldest princess?"

“This is what I want everyone to see.”

too frightening.

This man is really terrible.

Everything that has happened in the capital recently seems to be unfavorable to him, but in fact everything is under his control.

What if he used these methods on her, or if she had offended him in some way?

Or, if she tried to escape but failed and was caught by him, wouldn't that be...

Nan Yuan unconsciously moved a little further away from Gu Jingheng. She wanted to slow down.

Gotta take it slow.

"A Yuan?" Gu Jingheng was not used to her being far away from him, so he pulled her towards him and held her in his arms again. He was satisfied and asked, "Are you afraid of being alone?"

"I won't use this method on you, what are you afraid of?"

"I...I..." Nan Yuan's voice was a little trembling. She always knew that she could not outsmart him, but today was the first time she had such a concrete understanding of it.

"I knew that you were attracted by my gentle and elegant appearance from the beginning, so I never told you about my plan. But you have to know that I am the crown prince. How can a crown prince who has fought his way out of so many princes be gentle?"

"If I were really just a naive and foolish prince, how could I protect you and our family?"

"A Yuan, you have to accept it. No matter whether I am what you think I am or not, you have to accept it."

Gu Jingheng's voice was very gentle, but the words he said were so unquestionable.

Nan Yuan nodded blankly, but only she knew what she was thinking.

"good."

Gu Jingheng's lips fell on Nan Yuan's smooth and white forehead. Nan Yuan's whole body stiffened and she even forgot to breathe.

A lot happened today, and he had to give Nan Yuan some time to digest it.

When she returned to the Prince's Mansion, Nan Yuan's legs were weak. She was even unsure if she could leave successfully. Could he tell that she was faking her death?

Nan Yuan found an excuse and sent Gu Jingheng to the study. She still had to take it easy on herself.

Gu Jingheng also knew that there was no rush. The first step was always hard to accept, but things would get better later.

The next day, as soon as Nan Yuan went out, she saw a secret guard standing in the small pavilion.

"Ajiu?"

Nan Yuan shouted subconsciously.

She was a little dazed, as if everything that happened yesterday was just a dream, and when she woke up, Jiu would be able to come back to life again.

Nan Yuan walked forward, expecting that the person was Ah Jiu, but also a little scared, afraid that when the person turned around, he might not be the person she wanted to see.

"Good morning, my lord."

Ah Qi turned around and greeted Nan Yuan.

Nan Yuan stretched out her hand and just hung in the air.

She couldn't help but smile bitterly, shook her head in self-mockery, then withdrew her hand and said lightly: "It's you."

Nan Yuan was not very familiar with Ah Qi. Even in her previous life, she only knew that he was Gu Jingheng's secret guard. When she asked him to pass a message to Gu Jingheng, she said a sentence or two, and that was all she knew.

"My master has ordered me to serve you in place of Ah Jiu." Ah Qi lowered his head and said respectfully.

Nan Yuan waved her hand and said, "You can go back. The prince is in need of people right now. You are useless here."

"But what did I do wrong?" Ah Qi asked.

"you are right."

It was just that she selfishly didn't want anyone else to take over Jiu's position too quickly, as if that would mean that all traces of Jiu left in the world would disappear so easily and be replaced by someone else.

"It's just that I'm not used to it," Nan Yuan continued, "Just tell the prince that I don't like people following me."

When Ah Qi went to report to Gu Jingheng, Gu Jingheng didn't say much, but just asked Ah Qi to stay with him.

He is indeed short of staff recently and has no time to promote a newcomer to replace Ajiu, so he can only let Aqi take over again.

Moon Tower.

Nan Yuan stayed in the room for a long time and looked at the note in her hand for a long time.

Tea House...

Suddenly, a strange color flashed in her eyes.

She still remembered that she went downstairs to chase him because she saw Jiang Song.

It’s at Cha Ya Ju.

But after chasing after her, the person was gone, and when she opened her eyes again, she was being dragged away.

Something happened, and she was eager to cover it up, but was discovered by Gu Jingheng.

After that, a series of things happened between her and Gu Jingheng. In addition, she was unwilling to recall the details of that day, so Nan Yuan never found the loophole.

Jiang Song...

Could that matter be related to Jiang Song?

She would be better off asking in person.

But where is Jiang Song?

"Shen Zhaixing!"

Nan Yuan knew that Shen Zhaixing would come to Gu Jingheng to discuss something today, so she calculated the time to block him.

"You called me?"

Shen Zhaixing was surprised for a moment when he saw Nan Yuan calling him. He couldn't remember how he had offended her.
