Duan Yanchuan fought on the frontier for three years and returned to the court under orders. On the night he returned home, an assassin came to the house. The assassin fled in panic to the most remote courtyard of the house and kidnapped a brother who was making pills under the moonlight. Duan Yanchuan glanced at the brother and saw that the brother was not afraid at all when the assassin held a dagger to his neck. He concluded that he was an internal agent and ordered: "Take it down."
The guards in the palace were shocked and said, "No, General, this is Madam!"
Duan Yanchuan took a closer look, but he couldn't make Zhuang Ning's face coincide with the blurred face on the night of their wedding three years ago. With a wave of his hand, his personal guards captured the assassin while the guards in the mansion were shocked.
A group of people suddenly came and left suddenly, leaving only a trampled vegetable patch. Zhuang Ning wiped the blood from his scratched neck and gritted his teeth in distress as he looked at the vegetable patch he had tended.
When Duan Yanchuan was a child, a brother who took care of him tried to molest him. From then on, he never let that brother get close to him. One of the most favored concubines in the dynasty hated him and seduced the emperor into marrying Zhuang Ning to him three years ago. On the night of their wedding, Duan Yanchuan only took off his hijab and went to the border. When he came back this time, in addition to official business, he also planned to ask the emperor to let him and Zhuang Ning reconcile.
Everyone in the house knew that Zhuang Ning was not favored by Duan Yanchuan, and Duan's mother even ordered him to move to the most remote courtyard in the house, out of sight. When the servants in Fulu saw this, they didn't take him at ease. Zhuang Ning lives with a nanny and maid on a meager monthly salary. Fortunately, he is good at pharmacology and can make pills and sell them for money.
Duan Yanchuan went to the side courtyard to find Zhuang Ning with Li Shu in hand. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he heard a nanny saying: "Brother Ning, the general is finally back. You should seize the opportunity and take the initiative to get closer to the general. You have done a good job in medicinal diet. Why don't you send some medicinal diet to the general?"
Zhuang Ning: "Give it to him? I might as well give it to Dahuang."
Grandma: "Oh, my ancestor, you don't want to say this. How can you compare a general with a dog?"
Duan Yanchuan, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood and has an excellent ear, heard the conversation between Zhuang Ning and his mother-in-law clearly.
Zhuang Ning: "Mom, I don't want to please him."
Grandma said anxiously: "Do you plan to live alone in the side courtyard for the rest of your life?"
Zhuang Ning: "Mommy, if I don't get married, they will use my brother to blackmail me into marrying another man. Life will definitely be a hundred times harder than it is now when I marry in another country. Now I don't have to endure my nausea and serve a dirty man with three wives and four concubines, I don't have to be disciplined by a mean mother-in-law, I don't have to scheming with a bunch of sisters-in-law, and I can study pharmacology in a side courtyard without any distractions, isn't that good?"
Mammy: "My silly brother, the general has made great achievements in the frontier in recent years. He can use this to ask for peace with you. If you leave the Duan Mansion, the banker can't tolerate you. You have nowhere to go. What should you do?"
Zhuang Ning: "The Duan family wants to lose face. If you reconcile with Li, you won't treat me badly. If you regain your freedom and have money with you, that's great too!"
Mammy: "The general is both talented and beautiful. He is the husband candidate that many people dream of. You are close to the water and the tower, so you are not attracted to him?"
Zhuang Ning: "You abandoned me on the night of the wedding and made me a laughing stock. In the past three years, I have not said a word. What is there to be moved by such a heartless and unjust person?"
Duan Yanchuan: "..."
After leaving Beijing again and returning to the frontier, Duan Yanchuan asked Zhuang Ning to go with him.
Zhuang Ning: "..."
Ps: The dynasty background is fictitious, marriage first, love later, he.
Intention: Only sincerity can bring sincerity
