Reborn to be replaced, remarried to the royal palace to raise children and train husband

"Speaking of which, what is the reason that has caused the imperial court to delay until now and still fail to properly resettle those displaced refugees?"

If the court had made preparations before the situation deteriorated, it would have never allowed the situation to deteriorate into such a difficult situation.

Zheng Dinglian pondered and said, "There are many twists and turns behind this matter, so it is not convenient to reveal it to you at the moment."

Gu Qinlan understood immediately and nodded gently: "If that's the case, then let's not talk about it for now."

Zheng Dinglian continued, "I have arranged a team to escort you to the capital. There is no place for you in Jindu right now. Besides, the emperor has promoted me and granted me a house in the capital. Even if there is no refugee issue, we must set off."

Gu Qinlan was slightly surprised. Thinking back to this time in her previous life, Zheng Dinglian had not received this honor, and even stayed in Jindu for several years. It seemed that earth-shaking changes had indeed taken place in this life.

"I hid most of the treasures of Prince Duan's Mansion under the garden pond. After you solve the refugee problem, remember to send people to dig out those treasures one by one."

When the refugees first poured into the city, she foresaw that fleeing was the only option. There were so many valuables in the mansion that it was impossible to take them away. So she had an idea and wrapped those valuables tightly in oil paper and buried them deep under the garden pond.

Zheng Dinglian glanced at her approvingly and said, "Thanks to you, otherwise our family would really be in trouble."

Gu Qinlan smiled calmly: "This is my job."

Zheng Dinglian felt uncomfortable seeing her indifferent attitude, but this was not the time to be sentimental.

He immediately summoned Sang Qian and began to prepare for the trip to the capital.

Upon learning that they were about to move to the capital, Princess Duan and others were all delighted.

Although Jindu is their root, the current situation of Jindu makes them unable to stay there, so they are full of expectations for moving to the capital.

The servants in the mansion were even more excited.

Being able to leave the valley and go to the capital not only saved their lives, but also promoted their master to a higher rank, and their status and position also rose accordingly.

Everyone in the mansion was busy, and in less than half an hour, everything was ready.

Zheng Dinglian looked at the people who were ready to go and waved his hand, saying, "Let's go down the mountain."

The road down the mountain is quite rugged.

Princess Duan and the three princes were carried down the mountain, while Zheng Huiyi was supported by several maids.

Gu Qinlan was originally supported by Hongye and Fuyu, but after walking a short distance, Zheng Dinglian walked up to the two maids and said, "Let me do it."

The two smiled at each other, immediately let go of their master, and ran away hand in hand.

"Come up."

Zheng Dinglian walked to Gu Qinlan, squatted down, and motioned for her to lie on his back.

Gu Qinlan quickly refused: "No, I can do it myself, I'm not that delicate."

She and Zheng Dinglian were not familiar with each other, and even though they were husband and wife, they were not allowed to be too close in front of others. She was a rule-abiding person, even a little old-fashioned, and she didn't like to do things that would attract attention, especially in terms of the relationship between men and women. Even if the other person was her husband, she would subconsciously resist being too close to him in public.

In her previous life, Ji Yinli had expressed his dissatisfaction with her many times because of this, and Gu Qinlian also mocked her for being too hypocritical and unromantic.

But she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even if she was reborn again, she didn't plan to change.

As long as she feels comfortable, it is enough. Other people's preferences have nothing to do with her.

Zheng Dinglian saw that she was determined not to follow him, so he waved the huge flag in his hand and said in a loud voice: "It's too late. I have to return to the military camp in a hurry. I can't stay in this deep valley for long."

Gu Qinlan was obviously not moved by Zheng Dinglian's sweet talk. She just responded lightly: "Your Highness may leave first."

Zheng Dinglian was speechless for a moment.

His wife, whom he was not very familiar with, seemed to keep her distance from him.

However, he is not an easy character to deal with.

Since we can't treat them with courtesy, the only option left is to use tough measures.

So he stood up suddenly, approached Gu Qinlan, grabbed her wrist, and with a little force, Gu Qinlan felt as if she was pushed into the air by a force, and she couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.

Then she landed steadily on Zheng Dinglian's broad back.

Zheng Dinglian didn't give her any time to react. He raised his arm, took big strides and walked away.

When the servants around saw this scene, they all covered their mouths and laughed.

Gu Qinlan lay stiffly on his back. From the tips of her hair to the tips of her toes, she could feel herself burning with shame.

The authority she had worked so hard to establish in Prince Duan's Mansion collapsed in an instant!

In order to keep as much distance from him as possible, she straightened her back as much as possible and asked in a low voice: "Prince, please put me down. I can walk by myself."

Zheng Dinglian ignored him and continued walking down the mountain at a brisk pace.

Gu Qinlan gritted her teeth and shouted, "Prince Zheng, Zheng Dinglian, put me down now!"

But Zheng Dinglian still went his own way.

Gu Qinlan was furious and twisted his arm fiercely: "Put me down quickly, do you hear me!"

Her resistance resulted in Zheng Dinglian deliberately slipping.

"oops!"

Gu Qinlan hugged Zheng Dinglian's shoulders tightly in horror.

Zheng Dinglian felt her pressed tightly against his back and was secretly delighted.

Sure enough, pretending to fall was successful in getting her to stop nagging.

Besides, his wife smells really good...

As soon as this thought came to mind, Zheng Dinglian felt his heartbeat quicken and his body temperature rise...

He quickly gathered his thoughts and said with a stern face, "Don't move. I know you have a strong personality and you are not a delicate person, but it has just rained in the mountains and the roads are muddy and difficult to walk on. If you don't want to get hurt, just lie still and don't move."

"Are you willing to stay in bed and be a burden to everyone?"

Gu Qinlan was speechless again and looked at the muddy road beneath her feet helplessly.

In the end, she had no choice but to compromise: "Then I'll have to trouble you, my lord."

Zheng Dinglian responded and started walking again.

Gu Qinlan lay silently on his back, not daring to look up, for fear of meeting the gazes of the servants in the mansion.

In this way, her attention was completely focused on Zheng Dinglian.

Despite the heavy winter clothing, she could still feel his strong physique. Even when he carried her on his back on the rugged mountain road, his breathing was still steady.

Although he was a military general, he did not have any unpleasant smell, and his hair and clothes were kept clean, which overturned her inherent impression of military generals.

Moreover, he seems to be easy to get along with and considerate. Although he has not been at home for the past six months, he has always been concerned about family affairs. Such a man is indeed rare.

Many men, even if they spend the whole day with their wives, turn a blind eye to their wives' hard work and suffering.

Recalling his oath, Gu Qinlan thought to herself that perhaps they could really become a harmonious couple.

At least, she did not rule out this possibility.

Realizing the changes in her heart, Gu Qinlan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

She had originally vowed to the maids that she would lead them to a good life, but she didn't expect that she would have such an idea now.
