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

Gu Qinlan turned around and said with a bit of grievance: "None of your business. How can the pain in my body compare to the suffering in my heart? Am I doing this today for myself? And you still blame me!"

Zheng Dinglian immediately understood her intention and explained softly, "I'm not blaming you. I'm just worried and scared. Don't take risks like this again. Even if the Fourth Prince's wife really falls, I have a way to deal with it properly, it's just a little more troublesome. But if you get hurt, I... Qin Lan, you don't need to bear these risks and burdens. I have the ability to protect you."

Zheng Dinglian held her tightly in his arms, resting his chin lightly on her shoulder, and said in a gentle but firm tone: "You don't need to work so hard. No matter what happens in the future, you must remember to protect yourself first. For you, your own safety and health are more important than anything else. As long as you are safe, everything will go well."

His heart was filled with unspeakable pain and fear. When he learned that Gu Qinlan used her body to catch the Fourth Prince's wife, he almost wanted to execute the cruel couple on the spot!

Gu Qinlan's eyes flashed with complex emotions. She stared at Zheng Dinglian quietly, and a warm current surged in her heart. In her past life, everyone told her that she must take on some kind of responsibility, help her husband, and make him glorious, so that she could also benefit from it.

However, Zheng Dinglian told her that she didn't need to do that.

The atmosphere in the Fourth Prince's Mansion was extremely tense.

"boom--"

An extremely precious glass cup was suddenly thrown to the ground and instantly broke into countless pieces, flying everywhere, and the sharp sound of breaking echoed in the air.

The maids in the room were terrified and knelt on the ground in unison. Two of them accidentally knelt on the fragments and blood gushed out, but no one dared to make a sound.

Immediately afterwards, there was another loud "bang".

This time, it was not the porcelain that was broken, but the cheek of the Fourth Prince's wife.

The Fourth Prince slapped his wife so loudly that she saw stars and felt dizzy.

"Bitch, didn't you swear that you were absolutely sure? Now how do you plan to end this? All the plans I have worked hard on for many years have been ruined by you!"

The extremely angry Fourth Prince slapped the Fourth Prince's wife again, causing both cheeks to swell up.

The Fourth Prince's wife felt extremely aggrieved and yelled at him emotionally: "You only know how to blame me! Didn't you personally agree to all this? For the sake of your so-called great cause, you concealed the truth about the difficulty of having an heir. Why didn't you tell me the truth? Since you chose this plan, why did you let me get pregnant? The child is already in my belly. I wanted to use this child to help you, but in the end you pushed all the responsibility onto me? Do you still have any conscience?"

She was born into a distinguished family. Although not as noble as a royal princess, her father was one of the few kings of a different surname in the Western Wei Dynasty, and was very powerful. The reason why she married the fourth prince was because the emperor was worried that if she married someone else, it would cause disputes within the royal family, so he married her to the fourth prince who was known for his "problem of having children".

Therefore, she was not afraid of the Fourth Prince. After all, if the Fourth Prince wanted to ascend the throne, he needed the support of her family.

The Fourth Prince's face turned livid and he was furious, but he really didn't dare to take any excessive action against the Fourth Prince's wife.

Seeing this, the Fourth Prince's wife looked down on him even more. A man who could only rely on the pretext of "impairing his offspring" to cover up the truth, compared with the other princes, seemed so weak and incompetent.

Her feelings towards the Fourth Prince were already indifferent, and after this incident, she became even more disappointed.

So, she stood up resolutely, gently stroked her swollen cheeks, and said in a cold tone: "Since you don't want this child, then quickly send someone to send contraceptive pills. After the matter is resolved, we will divorce immediately."

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince panicked and hurriedly grasped the Fourth Prince's wife's hands, begging, "Tingting, I was wrong. I was too impulsive. I shouldn't have hit you. I apologize to you. Don't mention divorce, let alone give up the child."

"How could I not want this child? You know how much I want to have our own bloodline. I was wrong before, thinking that the greater good was more important, but now I understand that since the child is here, this is God's arrangement. Stop having random thoughts, just focus on taking care of the baby, and let me take care of the rest."

The Fourth Prince's wife sneered contemptuously: "Deal with it? How do you plan to deal with it? Publicly admit that you can actually give birth? Then how can you carry out your great cause? Or admit that the child is not yours, but the result of my affair with someone else?"

The fourth prince hurriedly explained: "I have considered it. We should continue to maintain the statement that there is a hindrance to having children. This child will be regarded as an unexpected surprise. In this way, my brothers will not be too afraid of me, and it will not have too much impact on the overall situation. What do you think?"

The Fourth Prince's wife laughed sarcastically: "You are really thoughtful."

The fourth prince smiled awkwardly, "Tingting, I know that I feel deeply sorry for you in this matter. Don't worry, I will make sure that you and the child who is about to be born enjoy supreme dignity. When my great cause is accomplished, it will all be up to you to decide who among the women in the mansion can give birth and who cannot."

The Fourth Prince's wife gently withdrew her hand: "I never trust verbal promises easily. Moreover, your behavior just now, Your Highness, really made me lose the basis for trust."

She leaned forward slightly and put her face closer.

The fourth prince looked at the swollen cheek, gritted his teeth, and shouted to the maids, "All of you leave."

The maids retreated in a panic, closing the door carefully.

The Fourth Prince tightly grasped the Fourth Prince's wife's hand and waved it towards his cheek: "Let you hit me to make up for my mistake."

The Fourth Prince's wife struggled to break free, and sneered coldly: "Your Highness is of noble status, how dare I act rashly."

The fourth prince clenched his fists, and suddenly slapped himself twice: "Now, my lady, are you willing to believe my sincerity?"

The Fourth Prince's wife's heart suddenly trembled, but it was not out of emotion, but fear.

This man is too scary. For the sake of profit, he can give up everything, even his dignity.

Once such a person succeeds, he will ruthlessly retaliate against all those who have disrespected him.

The two slaps he received just now were enough to make him remember it and hold a grudge for the rest of his life.

She had clearly underestimated this man.

After the Fourth Prince hit him, he seemed fine. He smiled and reached out to hold her hand, "Tingting, I really realize my mistake. I sincerely assure you that every word I said came from my heart. I also know that you have suffered a great injustice in this matter. I promise you that I will never let Zheng Dinglian and Gu Qinlan go. In the future, they will kneel at your feet and beg for your forgiveness."

"Stop talking in anger and just focus on your pregnancy. Leave the rest to me, okay?"
