After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

The mansion was quite lively that night.

However, Shen Jingshu remained quiet and turned off the lights and went to bed when it was time.

She has such a personality, and even the maids in the yard are the same, as calm as water.

……

The imperial examination began, and a solemn atmosphere filled the capital.

It was undoubtedly a long process from the beginning to the end. People in all the major restaurants started placing bets on the students they favored.

"You've heard of Shen Rujun from Zhuolin Academy, right? Wasn't it said that he made a big splash at a poetry conference a while ago? This time, he should be able to get first or third place in the exam."

As a talented scholar at Zhuolin Academy, Shen Rujun had long attracted a lot of attention with his outstanding talent and handsome appearance.

I have participated in many gatherings of talented people in restaurants before. The literati, scholars and guests all love to recite poems from time to time in the highest place of the restaurant.

His performance at the poetry meeting this time was even more amazing. Many people believed that he was the biggest favorite for this year's imperial examination, and many people placed bets on him.

"Isn't that an exaggeration? I heard that he was defeated by a woman."

His words immediately attracted the attention of others, and they all cast their attentive glances at him.

"Ah? Whose talented girl is so talented that she can surpass the students of Zhuolin Academy?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they caused an uproar.

Everyone asked: "Which talented woman is so talented that she can surpass the students of Zhuolin Academy?"

The man smiled mysteriously, "It is said that this talented woman is called Su Jinhua, and she is the wife of the prince of the Yongyi Marquis's mansion. I heard that she is not only outstanding in appearance, but also talented, and is proficient in poetry and songs. At the poetry meeting, she was better than the talented Shen in the discussion on the issue of people's livelihood."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all sighed: "A woman actually dares to discuss the people's affairs. This courage alone is extraordinary."

Everyone's attention shifted from Shen Rujun to Su Jinhua.

Not far away, two people were sitting in a corner drinking.

"They are discussing Miss Su."

Liu Dashan pricked up his ears and continued listening.

Gu Yan'an nodded. Since entering Kyoto, he asked Liu Dashan to inquire about the latest situation of the Marquis' Mansion.

From last winter when Su Jinhua distributed porridge to the people to the current rumors, one can feel that she truly cares about people's livelihood.

Gu Yan'an lowered his eyes, a hint of tenderness flashing in them.

But when he looked down and saw his own legs, Gu Yan'an's eyes instantly dimmed.

"Miss Su is really amazing. Not only is she a doctor, she is also good at reading. She is well-educated, gentle and kind. Women like her are rare in the world."

Liu Dashan exclaimed in praise, and then he saw that Gu Yanan was slow to speak, and he felt something was wrong.

"Well, I don't mean anything, brother. I just think Miss Su is a good person."

"fine."

Gu Yan'an put down the teacup, his expression indifferent, hiding his emotions, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"How do you feel about coming to Kyoto for the first time?"

Liu Dashan thought for a moment and said, "Kyoto is really big."

These four short words made people burst into laughter. Gu Yan'an almost couldn't hold back his expression. He lowered his head to drink tea, chuckled and shook his head.

"Just think it's big?"

"Also, there is prosperity, there are a lot of people, much more than in my hometown town, and there are so many..."

There were so many people dressed in noble attire. If Gu Yanan hadn't been around, Liu Dashan felt that he would have to speak in a humble tone.

Seeing his restraint and unnaturalness, Gu Yanan patted Liu Dashan on the shoulder.

"You are going to be a general soon, you must have courage and bravery."

Liu Dasan was stunned. When he was on the way here, Gu Yan'an had already told him that General Cao had recommended merit for them. He couldn't believe it after hearing it.

He was just a small deputy general, but he still had to ask the commander-in-chief to recommend him for credit. However, he also knew that Gu Yan'an had also recommended him for credit to the commander-in-chief.

"There is no need to talk about our friendship in this life. I have nothing on me, nothing I can show you, but my life. You can take it anytime you want."

Liu Dashan said this with a serious face.

"I don't want your life, live well and go see the vast mountains and rivers."

There was a hint of regret in Gu Yan'an's tone, and he also accepted his fate.

"Don't say anything depressing."

After Liu Dashan finished speaking, he fell into silence.

After finishing their meal, it was time for them to set off. Now they had arrived in Kyoto City, and if they walked a little further they would reach the Marquis' Mansion.

Liu Dashan carried Gu Yanan on his back and walked out of the restaurant. The two deputy generals had gone to another stall to eat noodles, but they also rushed back at this time.

"Then let's go to the Marquis' Mansion?" one of them said.

Liu Dashan didn't say anything, but looked at Gu Yanan.

"Well, let's go."

Liu Dashan nodded and carried Gu Yanan onto the carriage.

The carriage moved slowly towards the Marquis's Mansion.

……

"The prince is back! The prince is back!" The servant at the door shouted excitedly, and his voice echoed in the mansion.

In an instant, the entire mansion was in an uproar.

The next second, there was a commotion in every courtyard.

The eldest princess was the first to arrive.

Although her steps were a little unsteady, her eyes were full of anticipation and joy. Yucui held her tightly, fearing that she would fall.

Su Jinhua followed closely behind. She had just come out of the eldest princess's courtyard and was about to discuss with her mother-in-law about the arrangements for Gu Yanan's return.

Unexpectedly, he came back earlier than expected.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law arrived at the door first.

The moment Su Jinhua saw Gu Yanan, her heart tightened.

Although she had prepared herself mentally, she still couldn't hide her shock and worry when she actually saw his thin figure and his unusually large blue shirt.

Gu Yanan was sitting in a chair. When he heard footsteps, he slowly raised his head and looked at the eldest princess and Su Jinhua with a smile.

"Mother, Jinhua." He called softly, his voice a little hoarse.

The eldest princess walked forward quickly, holding Gu Yan'an's hand tightly, tears flashing in her eyes: "Yan'an, you are finally back. Mother was so worried about you."

"You must be tired after the journey. Let's go back and sit down. I have already asked someone to prepare a welcoming banquet."

The eldest princess had not yet realized that something was wrong and was still pulling Gu Yan'an up.

Liu Dashan was standing by, feeling very uncomfortable, so he could only walk over and clasp his fists and say, "I greet the princess."

The eldest princess looked at him with a little confusion.

"No need to be so polite, are you Yan'an's friend?"

The eldest princess did not release any pressure, but her aura still made Liu Dashan sweat profusely.

"That's right. I have something to tell you. Princess, please don't be angry after hearing this. Please focus on your health first."

The eldest princess had a bad premonition in her heart, Gu Yan'an lowered her eyes, Su Jinhua sighed softly and walked to Gu Yan'an.

"My husband, mother, my husband is back today with his comrades. This is a happy occasion and we should treat them well. If you have anything to say, why not go inside and talk about it."
