Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

After Gu Yanzhou finished speaking, he continued to look for Jiang Nan in the crowd.

As soon as he raised his head, he met Jiang Nan's smiling eyes, and they both smiled silently at each other.

Because he had just returned, the body of Marquis Pingyang had not yet been dealt with.

The emperor asked Gu Yanzhou to put down what he was doing, send the body of Marquis Pingyang to Marquis Pingyang's Mansion, and hold the funeral as soon as possible.

Gu Yanzhou glanced at the black coffin behind him. On that day, Pingyang Hou was surrounded by the enemy and refused to surrender until death. He was stabbed to death by the enemy with a sword through the heart.

When the body was delivered to the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion, the old lady personally waited at the door with Gu Huixuan and other servants.

Even though I felt disappointed before, after all, this is the child I raised, how can I not feel sorry for him.

"Grandma, I'm sorry. Please take care of yourself."

Gu Yanzhou spoke to Old Madam Gu.

Gu Yanzhou glanced at Gu Huixuan who was crying inconsolably, patted him on the shoulder, and then had someone carry the coffin into the mansion.

Old Madam Gu was old and Gu Huixuan was still young, so Gu Yanzhou stayed in the Marquis Pingyang's Mansion to take care of the funeral.

Gu Yanzhou stood in front of the coffin. Everything was settled. His revenge was achieved. Gu Yanzhou felt a sense of relief he had never felt before.

The funeral went very smoothly because Marquis Pingyang died on the battlefield, and all the ministers and people in the court came to see him off.

Jiang Nan also came to pay her respects with her father and mother. She had to come for the old lady's sake, not for anyone else.

This was the second time the two had met since Gu Yanzhou came back, but the funeral still needed to be taken care of by Gu Yanzhou, so Jiang Nan did not stay in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion after burning incense.

On the day of Marquis Pingyang's funeral, the emperor posthumously conferred the title of Duke of Protectorate on Marquis Pingyang. Gu Yunting was weak-willed and became a spy for the enemy country. Since Duke of Protectorate was loyal to his country, his merits and demerits offset each other, so he was executed on a certain day and his family would not be affected.

After taking care of the funeral, Gu Yanzhou rushed into the palace without stopping.

"Your Majesty, I have come here today to resign from my post. I hope Your Majesty will approve my request."

Gu Yanzhou knelt on the ground and spoke seriously to the emperor.

"You have made outstanding military achievements in the North this time. I was still thinking about how to reward you. Why did you suddenly think of resigning?"

When the emperor heard this, he became anxious and hurriedly walked up to Gu Yanzhou and asked.

"In this battle, Lengyue Kingdom became famous. Tianqi Kingdom will definitely not have another war this year. Other small border countries will not dare to act rashly due to Lengyue Kingdom's fighting power."

Gu Yanzhou gave the emperor a clear analysis of the current situation in Lengyue Kingdom.

"Even so, you can't just resign like that!"

Gu Yanzhou was a talented general, and he did not want to lose such a helpful figure in the court.

"I want to spend the rest of my life with the one I love."

"Since you have made up your mind, I will not force you to stay."

After hearing this, the emperor no longer forced Gu Yanzhou.

"There is one more thing. I want to give the hereditary position of Pingyang Marquis to Gu Huixuan."

"Okay, I agree to this now. I will announce this when he comes of age."

After bidding farewell to the emperor, Gu Yanzhou left the palace in a crescent-colored robe, with an upright posture and a faint smile on his face. His obsession was gone, and he no longer had any worries.

In December of the seventh year of Anding, Gu Yanzhou and Jiang Nan got married. Gu Yanzhou specially prepared a ten-mile-long red dowry for Jiang Nan. The carriages were lined up from one end of the street to the other, and the emperor came in person to congratulate.

The grand wedding caused a sensation in the entire Shangjing.

On the wedding night, Gu Yanzhou drunkenly sent away the last group of guests and asked the housekeeper to lock the door.

I went to the bridal chamber, and there was no trace of drunkenness in my eyes.

Jiang Nan was sitting upright on the bed in the bridal chamber, covering her face with a round fan in her hand. Her wedding dress was as red as fire. When she heard Gu Yanzhou's footsteps, she felt a little nervous.

The round fan blocked Jiang Nan's sight. As the footsteps got closer, Jiang Nan's face flushed and he subconsciously clenched the round fan in his hand.

Gu Yanzhou, also wearing a red robe, sat directly beside Jiang Nan, looking at him with a smile in his eyes, and said in a slightly raised tone: "Nervous."

"I didn't," Jiang Nan immediately retorted stubbornly.

"Since there is none, then we should not waste the beautiful scenery."

Gu Yanzhou's bony hands threw the round fan in Jiang Nan's hand to the ground. Jiang Nan was caught off guard and was thrown directly onto the bed by Gu Yanzhou.

Jiang Nan raised his eyes to look at Gu Yanzhou and was about to speak, but his lips were suddenly blocked and only a humming sound remained.

Gu Yanzhou called Jiang Nan's name over and over again in Jiang Nan's ear, as if to confirm whether everything was true.

A cold and low voice entered Jiang Nan's ears. The close distance and the scorching breath made Jiang Nan feel like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

The wedding candles in the room were burning long and the charcoal in the stove was burning slowly, making the room warm.
