After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

After he finished talking, Su Ziyu had also finished cooking the dish.

"Mother, husband, come out to eat."

The two looked at each other, then left the main room and went to the dining room.

Su Ziyu was very skilled at setting the table, if she had just married into the family.

She was still quite uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it.

It was always the servants who helped her place the chopsticks, but in the six months since she got married, she seemed to have gotten used to it.

This habit seemed to have been ingrained in her bones, and she herself didn't even realize it.

The meal was unusually silent. Su Ziyu looked at Shen and swallowed back what he was about to say.

After eating, everyone went back to their rooms. It was already completely dark, and Su Ziyu lit the lights in the house.

At this moment, Shen Rujun finally saw clearly the dressing table in front of her, which was piled with rouge and powder. Just by looking at their boxes and shells, one could tell that they were very valuable.

But these were not bought by Su Ziyu, but brought back from the Su Mansion.

Su Ziyu turned around and saw Shen Rujun looking at the things on the dressing table.

She looked flustered for a moment, but soon calmed down, walked towards Shen Rujun and whispered: "Husband, those are gifts from my mother. It's easy to get frostbite in winter. If my hands are full of frostbite, it will be difficult to wash clothes."

"Thank you for your hard work, Ziyou."

"It's not hard. I'm willing to do anything for my husband."

She raised her head, her eyes sparkling, and her face as gentle as water seemed full of affection.

But the affection was not visible in his eyes, like a fine jade mixed with impurities.

"My husband, you will be on duty tomorrow. Please be careful with your words when you enter the palace."

Shen Rujun nodded: "Thank you for your trouble. The teacher has already told me the pros and cons. I naturally know who can be offended and who cannot be offended."

"That's good."

Su Ziyu heaved a sigh of relief. This opportunity was hard to come by, and he couldn't let it be lost due to any mistake.

Shen Rujun suddenly raised her hand and gently tucked Su Ziyu's hair behind her ears.

"Ziyou, you've worked really hard during the time you've been married."

"How can it be hard? I feel extremely happy to be with my husband every day."

"I know you've had a hard time these days. When I settle down, I'll buy you a house and a few maids so you can live a good life."

Su Ziyu's eyes flickered. This was exactly the kind of life she wanted. She lowered her eyes, looking shy and timid.

"I know my husband loves me. If I can really live a good life like that, it will be the blessing I earned in my previous life."

Shen Rujun's eyes darkened and he nodded: "Yes, I will let you live such a good life."

After he said this, he chatted with Su Ziyu for a few more times. As the moonlight got darker, they both decided to take a rest.

Lying on the bed, Su Ziyu couldn't suppress the smile on his face as he fantasized about returning to a life of luxury in the future.

Although there were some deviations in the previous life, Gu Yan'an's leg was still lame, which also proved that Shen Rujun's glory would eventually be with him.

As long as she shows that she loves him deeply and never leaves him, why would she worry about not having a good life?

Even if it is Shen's family, she will be stepped on from now on. She can only be the mistress of the Shen family, and no one can order her around.

Although Shen Rujun and Su Ziyou were lying in the same bed, they were having different dreams.

A flash of indifference passed through his eyes, and coldness filled his heart.

……

"You're going to court tomorrow?"

After hearing this, Liu Dashan was startled and looked at Gu Yanan as if he had seen a ghost.

"Yes, weren't the court robes just issued the day before yesterday? Wear them and go to court with me tomorrow."

"Do you think if my legs were weak and I just knelt down, would it become a joke?"

"Yes, and you will become a laughing stock in Kyoto. The whole teahouse will be filled with rumors about you."

Liu Dashan shuddered violently again.

"No, I'll go back tonight and tame my knees so that he can fight for his chance tomorrow."

Gu Yanan raised his head and chuckled. He held a scroll in his hand and replied as he read it: "Then you should be well tamed. You must hold on tomorrow. If you kneel down, try to stay away from me. We don't know each other."

"You boy."

Liu Dashan laughed awkwardly and raised his hand to touch his nose.

"They say the court is full of twists and turns. I'm not very smart, so I don't even know how you've been plotted against."

"What are you afraid of? If you want to step into that muddy water, you have to be worthy. You and I are both safe at the moment. They probably have no desire to win over a general with no background and crippled legs."

Liu Dashan hesitated for a moment. Although it was true, he couldn't help feeling depressed when he thought about how worthless he was.

"But." Gu Yan'an changed the subject, narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"It looks like a useless person, but it is like a sharp sword that breaks through the siege when they are least prepared."

Liu Dashan was stunned and didn't understand what Gu Yanan meant. In his understanding, they were just spending their days in court.

Whose siege will they break through as sharp swords? Who will they kill?

He had a guess in his mind, and this guess was infinitely magnified. Liu Dashan was startled and looked at Gu Yanan.

"You don't mean..."

Gu Yanan put the book down and gently placed it on the stone table. He looked up at the clear blue sky, his narrow eyes dyed with amber.

"Why do you think His Majesty went to such great lengths to find all the famous doctors in the capital to treat my leg?"

"As soon as I came back, my mother went to ask the imperial physician to check my leg. Jinhua also specifically told Doctor Wei to spread the word that my leg could no longer be cured. Her intention was naturally to deceive some people."

Liu Dashan was shocked. He was not present that day, so he did not know the details. But he also understood that Gu Yanan's return to Beijing must have attracted the attention of some people.

Who would be attracted by Gu Yanan's return? If you think about it carefully, it would naturally be those who are concerned about the border.

Who is so concerned about the border? Perhaps it is the prince or a court official.

This again forces us to think deeply about the vortex on another level.

"So, the emperor knew that your legs were broken, and he made a big fuss to find those doctors to treat you. This was nothing more than telling the outside world that you were not a threat?"

"Yes, this is also a test. If my leg is healed, I will still pretend."

Gu Yan'an took a deep breath. He had now become the emperor's chess piece. Whom to kill with his sword depended on the emperor's will.

Liu Dashan didn't dare to think too much and looked at him with a complicated expression.

Gu Yan'an is smart. Whether it is the way of using troops or the method of understanding people's hearts, as long as he is willing to think, he can figure it out.

But this kind of cleverness often makes people feel exhausted and suspicious of everything. If it were him, his mentality would definitely collapse.

"So what are you going to do?"

"Keep pretending. Be as careless as you can. The more decadent you act, the safer it will be for us."
