Gu Yanan held the food and couldn't help but look back at Su Jinhua's back. He was a little surprised that she would go to the kitchen to help.

Looking at the three dishes and one soup in my hands, they are all ordinary home-cooked dishes.

Although Su Jinhua came from a humble family, he was from a family of officials after all. Could he really cook?

Gu Yan'an took a breath doubtfully, and was surprised to find it was quite good.

Soon, all the food in his hands was eaten.

After silently returning the dishes and chopsticks, Gu Yanan went back to training.

In the next few days, Su Jinhua would deliver food to Gu Yanan during his daily training.

When others see this, they can't help but make some jokes, mostly out of envy.

In the capital, the eldest princess received Su Jinhua's letter and couldn't wait to open it.

Upon learning that Gu Yanan was doing well in the army and had made military achievements, Jinhua stayed to take care of him, feeling very relieved.

The military camp was bitterly cold, and it was hard for even an ordinary person to stay there, let alone a rich lady like Su Jinhua.

It was not easy for her to persevere and was willing to stay at the border for that bad boy. It seemed that this daughter-in-law really had deep feelings for Yan An.

……

At the same time, the atmosphere in the military camp has been particularly tense in the past two days, and patrols have been intensified.

Su Jinhua felt something was wrong and asked a few questions when Liu Dashan was free.

"There will be a battle in two days." Liu Dashan wiped his sword. This was not a military secret, so he could naturally tell it.

Seeing Su Jinhua's nervous face, he smiled and said, "It's okay. The barracks have increased patrols. The enemy can't get in. Don't worry."

"I'm not worried about my own safety, Brother Liu, is my husband going too?"

If I remember correctly, something happened to Gu Yanan during this expedition.

"That's natural."

Liu Dashan sighed softly: "But don't worry too much, the prince is capable enough to protect himself, just wait for us to return after winning the battle."

As night fell, the military camp was brightly lit, but the solemn atmosphere could not be concealed.

Gu Yan'an stood in the team, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, scanning the busy soldiers around him.

He was wearing armor and holding a long sword, his posture was upright, forming a sharp contrast with the dark night.

Liu Dashan stood beside him and said solemnly, "I know you are good at fighting, but you have to be careful. It is easy to dodge an open attack but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. You are the prince of a marquisate, so you must not get into any trouble, otherwise your princess will cry to death."

"Brother Liu, I'm Gu Shanshi. Whoever wants to be the prince of the Marquisate can be the prince. If you call me the prince again in the future, don't blame me for turning against you."

Gu Yan'an's expression suddenly changed and he spoke in a very serious tone.

Liu Dashan was stunned by his sudden seriousness, but when he came to his senses, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm the only one who knows your true identity. I called you the prince just to give you some face in front of your wife, and you took it seriously."

"Brother Liu, I..." Gu Yan'an misunderstood Liu Dashan and was a little embarrassed. Just as he was about to explain, the horn of departure sounded and he had to return to the team immediately.

Liu Dashan had not yet recovered from his previous injury, so he was guarding the rear this time.

The soldiers' orderly footsteps rang out, and the ground seemed to shake.

Su Jinhua was a little restless in the tent, praying that there would be a turnaround for Gu Yanan's incident this time. Even if it was just a slight clue, she would grab it firmly.

……

This time the battle lasted until late at night the next day.

Su Jinhua was on high alert, waiting for news from Gu Yanan.

As the sound of hurried horse hooves came, Su Jinhua immediately jumped out of bed and ran out of the tent.

Liu Dashan came galloping on his horse with someone on his back.

"Brother Liu!" Su Jinhua felt something was wrong and immediately waved his hand.

"Hey!"

Liu Dashan responded and immediately dismounted. Looking at Su Jinhua's eyes fixed on the person on the horse, he sighed softly.

"This kid was ambushed by the enemy. He is covered in wounds and his leg was hit by a poisonous arrow."

"The military doctor is still taking care of the wounded in the back and is too busy to handle everything. I'm going to the city to find a doctor now."

Su Jinhua's palms were sweating, and he said quickly: "If we rush to the city now, we won't be back until tomorrow noon at the latest. I'm afraid it will be too late."

After saying that, she stepped forward and said, "I came to look for my husband, and I expected that he would be injured, so I bought a lot of medicine for treating injuries from the capital. I also know some medical skills. Brother Liu, can you let me take care of my husband?"

There is no other way now, so this is the only option.

"Thank you for your hard work. I will send someone to the city to find a doctor right now. Please try to keep him alive until the doctor arrives!"

"I know." Su Jinhua nodded, her hands were covered with sweat, but she had to stay calm at this moment.

Liu Dashan carried Gu Yanan to her tent. After settling her down, he hurried out to do something else, but he still arranged a young soldier to help Su Jinhua.

"Please help me boil some hot water, little brother. Thank you."

The young soldier hurried to do it, and Su Jinhua hurried to see Gu Yanan's condition.

At this moment, the man's face was as pale as paper, with traces of black blood oozing from the corners of his lips. It was obvious that he had been poisoned.

His eyes were tightly closed and his whole body was bloodless.

The blood and dirt on his armor made him look even more miserable.

The poison arrow in his leg caused him to suffer excruciating pain. Sweat streamed down his cheeks. He clenched his hands into fists as he endured the tremendous pain.

There was a piece of cloth hastily tied around the wound. Su Jinhua gently lifted the cloth, revealing a deep and wide wound.

The surrounding skin had turned dark purple and emitted a sickening stench.

She suppressed her discomfort, took a clean cloth, dipped it in some water, and gently wiped the dirt and blood.

After cleaning, he took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from his arms and carefully opened the cap.

Suddenly, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air.

She dipped her finger into some medicine and gently applied it to the wound.

When the medicine came into contact with the wound, it immediately made a "hissing" sound, accompanied by an unpleasant smell.

Gu Yanan's brows were tightly furrowed.

Su Jinhua continued to gently massage the muscles around the wound to help the medicine penetrate better.

As time went by, the skin around the wound gradually became rosy and the stench gradually dissipated.

This was a sign that the poison was being eliminated, and Su Jinhua felt relieved.

Then there are other injuries.

"Sister-in-law, the hot water is here."

"Thank you. Could you help me remove his clothes? I need to clean his wounds."

The young soldier hurried over and helped take off Gu Yanan's upper body clothes.

"Thank you. You go and do your work. I'll take over next." Su Jinhua looked at the little soldier who was always glancing outside and said sympathetically.

"Okay!" The little soldier immediately ran out to take care of other wounded soldiers.

Su Jinhua dipped a clean cloth in water and cleaned Gu Yanan's wounds. Looking at the countless new and old wounds all over his body, his hands began to tremble.

He was obviously a pampered prince who could have lived a leisurely and comfortable life, but he chose to go to the border to suffer, with wounds all over his body as if he had been on the battlefield for a long time.

It's really heartbreaking.
