The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Gu Nanyuan listened quietly, the anger in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by heartache.

He held Lin Ruoxuan tightly in his arms, looked down at her slightly red eyes, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Ruoxuan." His voice was low and warm, as if confirming an unquestionable promise, "You said you can't get out, so I will go with you. You are my wife, we are one. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we must face them together."

Lin Ruoxuan buried herself in his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and the depression and uneasiness in her heart gradually dissipated a little.

She raised her head slightly: "Nanyuan, but I... I'm afraid of dragging you down, I really..."

"That's enough." Gu Nanyuan stared down at her, his tone slightly overbearing, "Burden? Do you think I'm the kind of person who only cares about myself? Remember, we will never get divorced in this life."

His words were firm and decisive. "I love you deeply. I finally got you. How could I let you go? If I see a divorce letter like this again, I will not let you go easily."

When Lin Ruoxuan heard this, she finally burst into laughter, with embarrassment in her tears: "You are not angry anymore?"

"Angry?" Gu Nanyuan gently scratched her nose with a doting smile on his face, "I am really angry at you. My wife actually thought of scaring me with a divorce letter. It really gives me a headache."

Lin Ruoxuan glared at him in reproach, but could not hide the emotion in her eyes: "I... I just don't want to embarrass you."

"Silly girl." Gu Nanyuan raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, his eyes affectionate, "What makes me embarrassed is that you always hide everything in your heart and refuse to tell me. No matter what happens in the future, you are not allowed to bear it alone. I am here, so don't be afraid."

Lin Ruoxuan nodded gently, as if she had finally let down her guard, and leaned her head on his shoulder, saying in a low voice, "Thank you, Nanyuan."

Gu Nanyuan hugged her, his tone was somewhat relaxed: "Since you said thank you, then listen to my arrangements. Starting tomorrow, I will accompany you to go out and relax. Travel around the mountains and rivers, see the scenery, and I guarantee that you can let go of the shadow in your heart."

Lin Ruoxuan looked up at him, with a hint of surprise in her eyes: "Can you take a vacation?"

Gu Nanyuan raised a smile, his eyes revealing a bit of cunning: "I have just made a great contribution, I should spend some time with my wife. Besides, your matter is more important than anything else."

Lin Ruoxuan's eyes were filled with emotion, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "Well...Okay, I'll follow your arrangements."

"That's right." Gu Nanyuan lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his voice gentle, "Remember, from now on, husband and wife are one, no matter what happens, we must face it together."

The next morning, Gu Nanyuan had packed everything and went straight to the palace to meet the emperor.

In the imperial study, the emperor was reviewing memorials. Seeing Gu Nanyuan coming in, he put down his pen and looked at him with concern: "You just finished your mission for Changlin. What important matter do you have to see me about?"

Gu Nanyuan bowed and said earnestly, "I came here today to ask for a month's leave."

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously a little surprised: "You have never taken the initiative to ask for leave, why do you want to ask for leave now? Is there something going on at home?"

Gu Nanyuan raised his head, his eyes steady, "Your Majesty, family affairs do require some time to deal with. I hope to accompany my wife to relax and recuperate, and return to the capital when she is in a better mood."

The emperor smiled and said jokingly, "I never knew you were such a henpecked husband. Since it's for my wife, I'll grant your request and extend the deadline. If one month is not enough, half a year will do."

Gu Nanyuan breathed a sigh of relief and bowed solemnly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

A few days later, the carriage left the capital, and the couple began a leisurely journey of sightseeing.

In the early morning, there was a thin mist in the mountains. Lin Ruoxuan was awakened by the crisp singing of birds. She opened the window and saw dark green mountains in the distance and green water nearby. The air was so fresh that it made people feel relaxed and happy.

She stretched her body slightly, her eyes full of anticipation.

Gu Nanyuan had already been standing outside the window. When he saw her sticking her head out, he raised his hand and pointed into the distance: "Hurry up and get ready. We are going to climb the mountain today. There is a sunset forest on the top of the mountain. The scenery is very beautiful."

Lin Ruoxuan smiled and nodded: "Okay, but don't walk too fast, wait for me."

Half a year passed in a flash, and the couple traveled all over the beautiful land of the dynasty.

From the misty pavilions in the beautiful south of the Yangtze River to the magnificent yellow sands of the northern desert, from the towering and steep snow-capped mountains to the quiet and peaceful bamboo sea, they traveled happily all the way, laughing constantly, with no more haze in their eyes and no more barriers in their hearts.

Lin Ruoxuan's smile became more charming, and Gu Nanyuan's expression gradually softened.

The two seemed to have finally let go of the past and regained their happiness.

Half a year later, the carriage stopped outside the city gate of the capital, and the couple returned to the Gu family.

Two months later, the Gu family held a lively family banquet. The house was filled with guests and friends, who were toasting and having a great time.

Lin Ruoxuan was dressed in a lavender brocade dress, sitting next to the main seat, her brows were gentle and her face looked a little tired, but it could not conceal her elegance and grace at all.

"Today's banquet was a success." Gu Nanyuan whispered in her ear with a doting tone.

Lin Ruoxuan looked up and smiled at him. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt dizzy and the cup in her hand slipped to the ground.

"Ruoxuan!" Gu Nanyuan stood up suddenly and his face changed drastically.

There was an uproar in the banquet hall, and everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Gu Nanyuan picked up Lin Ruoxuan and walked away without saying a word, leaving the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo to hurriedly order someone to call a doctor.

Inside the room, Lin Ruoxuan was gently placed on the bed, and Gu Nanyuan sat beside her with a frown on his face, his eyes full of anxiety.

Soon, the doctor hurried over with a medicine box and took Lin Ruoxuan's pulse.

Gu Nanyuan stared at the doctor's actions intently, his tone low but anxious: "How is Ruoxuan?"

The doctor looked up with a hint of surprise, stroked his beard and smiled, "Congratulations, my lord. The lady is fine. She is just a little weak because of the initial signs of pregnancy. She just needs to take good care of herself."

"Pregnant pulse?" Gu Nanyuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, his face blooming with irrepressible joy, and he stood up suddenly, "Ruoxuan is pregnant?"

"That's right." The doctor nodded with a smile, "You need to be more careful during this period, work less, and rest more."

Gu Nanyuan turned his head and looked at Lin Ruoxuan lying on the bed, his eyes filled with surprise and tenderness.

He sat down slowly, held her hand in his palm, and couldn't hide his excitement in his voice: "We have a child!"

Lin Ruoxuan slowly opened her eyes and looked at his delighted expression. There was no trace of fear in her eyes, but instead they were full of anticipation.

She gently stroked her belly, a small smile forming on her lips: "Yeah, I get it."

Gu Nanyuan hugged her, bent down to kiss her forehead, and said softly: "Thank you, thank you for welcoming this new life for us."

Lin Ruoxuan gently nestled in his arms, her eyes gentle, her tone full of happiness: "Nanyuan, thank you for always being with me. Now, I am really happy and not afraid at all."

Outside the window, the night wind blew, and the lights in the yard reflected the joy in the room. The future of the Gu family also became brighter at this moment.
