Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

But unfortunately, she should have just listened to it.

It was obviously impossible to make her give up on Su Shixuan in a short period of time and devote all her heart and soul to herself and Ruier.

Gu Qinghe never held this hope from the beginning.

After all, it is not easy to change a person's mind. Didn't she only wake up after dying once?

Outsiders think He Shumin is a strong-willed person, but in fact she is very well protected by Uncle He and Aunt He. Both she and Wen Kui are kind people. Unless what Lin Wan'er has done has really threatened her and made her realize the danger, she would never take the initiative to attack Lin Wan'er.

But it doesn’t matter. Just because she won’t do it doesn’t mean Gu Qinghe won’t do it.

All the reminders that needed to be given had been given, and Gu Qinghe lowered his eyes and thought quietly.

Now that she has a new start, she will never watch He Shumin and Rui'er follow the same path as in her previous life. If Lin Wan'er continues to act like this, Gu Qinghe doesn't mind getting rid of her first.

It's just some blood on my hands, so what's the harm?

……

When the news of Princess Lirang's sudden death reached the palace, His Majesty obviously did not believe it.

So they sent someone to check it out, but the person who came back to report was very firm in his answer that the person was indeed dead.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince even vomited blood because of this and is still lying in bed, heartbroken.

The imperial physician went to take the prince's pulse and said that the prince was so sad that his old illness was triggered. He would probably need to recuperate for a while.

When Princess Lirang was buried, Gu Qinghe had already left the capital with the Princess and was heading to Chizhou.

In order to prevent the Emperor from noticing anything, they split into two groups. Gu Qinghe led Luo Feng on one group, and the Crown Prince's men led Princess Lirang on another. They would meet up again when they were farther away from the capital.

After three days' journey, they finally met up.

When Gu Qinghe saw Princess Lirang, her face was very pale, probably due to the bumpy journey over the past two days.

She smiled at Gu Qinghe, a little embarrassed, "Just call me Qin Xiang."

Gu Qinghe did not refuse. After all, there were many people on the road and it would be bad if others heard her calling him "princess".

When they stopped to eat at night, Qin Xiang quietly sat next to Gu Qinghe, glanced at her and whispered, "I heard that you and General Shao were lovers. Don't mind that I wanted to marry General Shao before. That was a task given to me by my father. The people sent by my father hadn't left yet, so I had no choice but to do this."

"It doesn't matter. I would have forgotten it if you hadn't told me." Gu Qinghe smiled and handed Qin Xiang a meat pie that she and Luo Feng had bought today.

After a moment of silence, Qin Xiang's eyes flashed with joy, "Thank you."

She took small bites of the pie, glancing at Qinghe from the corner of her eyes from time to time.

Of course Gu Qinghe could sense her gaze, but they both had their own plans. Gu Qinghe was thinking about how to ask her some more sensitive topics.

For example, why did she come to Ruichao for marriage?

But this question is inexplicable.

If Qin Xiang was reborn like herself, she would not choose to marry in Ruichao. It would be right to avoid it as much as possible.

Gu Qinghe looked up suddenly.

Yes, a reborn person should avoid marriage as much as possible, so she brought forward a scapegoat who could take her place and come to Ruichao to marry.

Since it is already known that marrying into the Rui Dynasty will mean certain death, it is normal to give her some impossible tasks.

For example, letting her choose to marry Shao Wei, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, at least it will make the Emperor of Ruichao have some resentment and vigilance towards Shao Wei.

Now that the emperor values ​​Shao Wei, he may not take this matter to heart. But if the emperor becomes suspicious of Shao Wei one day, this incident will be a good fuse.

Gu Qinghe slowly turned his head to look at Princess Lirang, his eyes flashing.

If it was really as she guessed, then Princess Lirang would not be someone who would sit and wait for death.

In the previous life, the princess chose the fourth prince, and later in the battle for the throne, the fourth prince was defeated. If she were reborn, since the princess pushed Qin Xiang to die, it would be impossible for her to be kind enough to point out a way for her to survive.

Lirang asked Qin Xiang to choose the candidate for marriage. Shao Wei was a prince, but the most important one should be the fourth prince.

But she knew what those people were planning and chose a way to survive.

Gu Qinghe sighed softly, is this a way to survive?

It’s really hard to say.

She probably doesn't know it herself.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have looked around several times and thought about running away along the way.

The moon was very round. Qin Xiang looked up silently, stuffed the remaining pie in her hand into her mouth and chewed it slowly. After swallowing it, she looked at Luo Feng who was already asleep in Gu Qinghe's arms, her eyes softened a lot, "I have a younger brother, who is about the same age as him."

When Qin Xiang mentioned her brother, the awkwardness on her face gradually disappeared, and her face was as gentle as the moonlight. "Calculating the time, coming to Ruichao was the longest time I was apart from him."

When she got on the carriage, everyone in the palace knew that there was a dead end ahead, except him.

The night before, he ran to Qin Xiang's residence, hugged her waist and cried with tears and snot all over his face. After crying, he ran to the door and looked around. After making sure there was no one there, he ran back and stood in front of Qin Xiang.

The little person who needed her protection in the past has now started to plan for her, "Royal sister, you must be careful when you arrive in Rui Dynasty. Don't listen to father. You must not choose the General Shao he asks you to choose. You should choose a prince like me who has no status and no one cares about him. You wait for me in Rui Dynasty. When I grow up, I will come to pick you up."

But he didn't know that Qin Xiang was destined to never come back after leaving this time.

But she was unwilling to do so. She just wanted to curl up with her brother in a corner where no one cared about her and live a quiet life. Why should it be so hard?

The emperor said that as a princess, she enjoyed wealth and glory that no one else had, and was worshipped and admired by the people. It was her duty to devote herself to the country.

Where does duty come from?

Where does wealth and glory come from?

She is a princess, but this princess lives a life worse than that of the palace maids. Even a dog can come and step on her.

Whether it’s the country, the emperor, or the people, what does it have to do with her if they’re all dead?

She didn't want to die. She had to live. Only if she lived, her brother could live. If she died, she would probably see her brother in the underworld within two years.

Gu Qinghe saw the struggle and hatred in her eyes and was slightly distracted.

She didn't know much about the situation in Lirang. She only heard Mingxuan say it when Qin Xiang came to marry. It was said that the princess was having a hard time in Lirang.

Her mother killed Emperor Lirang's favorite concubine and hanged herself, leaving the brother and sister to be ostracized in the palace.
