Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Zhou Jin was destined to sleep in the study.

Zhou Jin was very unhappy, his face looked ugly, and he was dissatisfied with everything he saw!

Whenever I feel unhappy, I start writing poetry.

After writing it, throw it away.

Lai Fu secretly glanced at the paper, oh my, his teeth are almost falling out from the sourness!

As the moon reached its zenith in the sky, Lai Fu was very tired from running around all day. He yawned and could no longer hold it in.

He would rather be beaten to death for talking back to the young master than die in poverty.

"My Lord, you have written so many good poems. How about I help you sort them out and give them to your wife tomorrow?"

"Don't!" Zhou Jin quickly retorted and threw these sour poems into the incense burner and burned them to ashes.

He couldn't bear to read those poems.

If Gu Xiling saw this, she would probably laugh her head off!

"Prince, it's getting late. Go to bed early. You still have to go to the government office to work tomorrow." Lai Fu persuaded him. He was most annoyed by the prince's introverted and sultry personality.

If you don't get angry, just sulk.

Zhou Jin put down the wolf hair brush in his hand and mustered up the courage to ask Lai Fu.

"I've clearly prepared everything, and my father is fine, but when I returned to Zizhu Garden, my wife locked me out. Why?"

Lai Fu lowered his head and did not dare to look up. He was afraid that the prince would see the mocking look in his eyes.

Lai Fu pointed to the roasted rooster on the plate and said, "Blame it."

Zhou Jin scratched the tip of his nose, "I just think what Xiling said is very interesting, and I want to eat roast chicken."

"Prince, what you said is interesting, but your wife would have to run away desperately at that time, otherwise she would get hurt." Lai Fu decided to expose the prince's self-righteousness and kept complaining in his heart.

What’s the use of having a smart brain?

What’s the point of writing a beautiful article?

No matter what you do, you always consider things from your own perspective. No wonder the Crown Prince's wife is angry.

Zhou Jin was stunned. "Injured? But my wife said she broke the neck of a rooster and roasted it. My wife is very powerful, isn't she?"

Lai Fu disagreed, "If someone loved her, would the Crown Prince's wife need to be so powerful? Isn't it because no one protects her? She relies on herself in everything, pushing herself to become stronger and more powerful, otherwise the Crown Prince's wife wouldn't have survived until now."

"You are the husband of the Crown Prince's wife. You are her support. On this happy occasion, does the Crown Prince's wife want your roast chicken? Does she want you to make fun of her childhood life-and-death struggle?"

It has to be said that these words left Zhou Jin stunned, dumbfounded and speechless.

After a while, Zhou Jin slowly said, "I think my wife doesn't seem to care!"

"Prince, now that the scar has fallen off, can we pretend that we were never injured before?" Lai Fu asked, "Obviously not! The scar has healed, but it doesn't mean that we were not injured before, nor does it mean that it doesn't hurt anymore."

"In your opinion, the Crown Prince's wife is very powerful. But you might as well think about it. The Crown Prince's wife was an adult at the time, and it was indeed easy for her to break a chicken's neck. But what if she was only a few years old, or even younger?"

"That big rooster is probably not much shorter than the lady, and they are two aggressive roosters. Not only might they hurt her, they might even blind her eyes. My prince, please be more careful."

"The Crown Prince's wife is not a princess who was raised in luxury in the harem. How strong and powerful she is now proves how much hardship she had to endure in the past. She had to use even greater perseverance to get through it until now."

"You can't just enjoy the kindness of the Crown Prince's wife to you. You don't cherish her and don't understand her! Crown Prince, I'm so worried. I don't know why you are sulking here."

Zhou Jin's face was startled and his pupils shrank slightly.

An image appeared in my mind of a girl who was almost as tall as a rooster and was being chased and pecked by two roosters.

The rooster was very ferocious and pecked the little girl's arm, causing her to bleed. She was unable to dodge and was pecked on the forehead by the rooster again, almost injuring her eyes.

He had carefully observed that there was a small bump on Gu Xiling's forehead. Could it have been really pecked by the rooster?

Zhou Jin took a deep breath, and his heart felt as if someone was grabbing it, making it sore and painful.

At the same time, Zhou Jin looked at Lai Fu seriously and asked, "Lai Fu, I know you are smart and clever, but you and I grew up together, why do you know so much? Why do you think so much?"

When Lai Fu saw Zhou Jin asking, he decided not to hide his incompetence today and just told him everything.

He met Zhou Jin's gaze and said, "Sir, there were a total of sixteen people who entered the palace with me, but I was the only one who stayed with you. It's not because I'm good-looking, but because I have a good brain and sharp eyes."

"At that time, the madam and the old lady said that although my eyes were small, I could see things that others could not see, and my brain could think of things that others could not think of. I was very smart and thoughtful. I was only selected. If I did not do well, I would be replaced."

"Many people know that if you follow the prince, you will be the chief steward in the future, so many people are watching me. In order not to make mistakes, I am very cautious. Before going to bed every day, I will take stock of the events of the day and the past, and then arrange the future events."

"Get along with different people, remember the characteristics and preferences of important people, try to figure out their intentions, and provide the young master with the necessary information and methods at any time. Just like now, I dare to say this because I can't bear to see the young master staying in the study. Please forgive me if I am wrong."

Zhou Jin listened carefully to Lai Fu's words, his eyes flickering with meaning.

He stood up and patted Lai Fu on the shoulder. "Lai Fu, after all you said, I vaguely understand that my life before was carefree and smooth. I can't be sophisticated in human nature, let alone empathy."

Lai Fu began to admire his son again. In order not to offend the son, he spoke in a roundabout way, but the son hit the nail on the head and found the point.

"No wonder the teachers all say that the prince has a very high level of understanding. He understood it in an instant."

Lai Fu flattered Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin smiled and said, "Then think about it again. What should I do to make Xiling feel better?"

"In fact, the Crown Prince's wife is not really angry with you. She may feel that tonight is not appropriate." Lai Fu explained, pointing in the direction of Songhe Garden, "Maybe the old lady is scolding the Marquis, and the mansion is not peaceful. The Crown Prince is as good to his wife as always, that's all."

Zhou Jin thought about it and felt that Lai Fu's words made sense. "Lai Fu, talk to Xiulan often, ask about Xiling's situation, and report to me in time."

Lai Fu agreed, "Don't worry, my dear. I promise to keep an eye on you at all times. If your wife gets angry and throws a tantrum, don't get angry. Just pamper her and indulge her. Then she will know how good you are."

Zhou Jin agreed with this and went to see Gu Xiling the next morning.

Seeing Gu Xiling dressed neatly and with delicate makeup, "Madam, don't you want to take a nap?"

When Gu Xiling heard this, the grievance in her heart disappeared instantly. It was not bad to have a husband who could accept her sleeping in.

But this was not the time to joke. She moved closer to Zhou Jin and said, "Prince, you still don't know what happened in the mansion last night, right?"
