Chapter 107: Learn More from My Lord

Two days later, Gu Jincheng came to the door, and Qi Wuhan happened to have gone to the military camp.

I guess the other party came to the door specifically after waiting for the person to leave.

Butler Shi first brought the people to the hall, and then Jiang Lan brought Qing'er over. When Gu Jincheng saw her, his expression became a little bad. Jiang Lan thought that he looked like he was here to call for an explanation.

"The Marquis will be back soon."

“…”

Gu Jincheng was speechless. Who did he think he was? A bully...

"I just came here to know what the madam said to my wife the other day?" He restrained his expression and spoke in a polite tone.

"Is the young lady feeling better?" Jiang Lan asked.

Gu Jincheng turned his eyes to the side, his expression became a little gloomy, and his voice became a little low, "She..." He paused and didn't say anything else.

Seeing him being so evasive and hesitant, showing no sense of responsibility, Jiang Lan's tone turned a bit cold. "Sir, don't you know, or have you never even looked at it?"

Gu Jincheng was also irritated, and his tone became impolite, "What do you know, she doesn't want to see me." At this point he turned his face away again, his expression somewhat gloomy and annoyed, feeling that he had said something he shouldn't have said and made people laugh at him.

Jiang Lan lowered her eyes and looked at the hand warmer in her hand, thinking silently.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Gu Jincheng sighed, a self-deprecating smile forming on his lips again. "Why am I telling you this? In the eyes of you women, it's always us men who are wrong."

Jiang Lan frowned and said sarcastically, "What's wrong with us women? Do we like to throw tantrums or cry and make a fuss? In the eyes of a man as magnanimous as the prince, he must think that we women like to be petty and unreasonable."

“…”

Gu Jincheng felt even more unhappy after being humiliated.

"Why don't you learn from my Lord? He is gentle and considerate, always caring for me and always finding ways to make me happy."

“.…..”

Before Jiang Lan finished listing Qi Wuhan's strengths, Gu Jincheng couldn't bear to hear any more and interrupted, "Save these words for your Lordship. I'm not here to listen to you." He paused, his expression becoming unusually serious. "I know you're brave. You dared to break into the Duke's Mansion and disrupt a wedding before, but don't teach Ru'er a bad lesson."

Leaving behind these words that sounded like a warning, he stood up and said goodbye.

"A girl doesn't have to rely on a man to survive. The most important thing is to live a comfortable life." Jiang Lan said calmly.

Gu Jincheng stopped, looked behind him, frowned a little, and left with a wave of his sleeves.

After the other person left, Qing'er was a little worried that the other person would come to cause trouble again in the future. Seeing the angry look on his face when he left just now, she was afraid that he would not let it go.

"Trampling one's own cocoon..." Jiang Lan muttered to herself as she looked at the hand warmer in her hand. If the misunderstanding between them had not been resolved, would she be tracing her own cocoon now? She sighed softly, feeling extremely fortunate that she did not miss this fate in this life.

…

After Qi Wuhan took Ling Feng out of the city, an arrow shot at them halfway. Qi Wuhan dodged sideways, and the sharp arrow pierced into the ground with a note tied to the arrowhead.

The moment the arrow was shot, the two black-armored guards immediately chased towards the forest ahead.

Ling Feng and the other two black-armored guards stayed where they were, on guard. Qi Wuhan dismounted, pulled out the arrow, and observed its shape.

The arrowhead has four edges with serrated barbs on them, making it more deadly than ordinary arrows. Once it penetrates into bones and flesh, it will tear off all the flesh and bones if you want to pull it out, and you can only use a knife to cut it out. It is a weapon commonly used by the people of the Northern Desert.

Qi Wuhan had such an old wound on his body, and the scar left on his body was still shocking.

On their wedding night, Jiang Lan had felt this scar, and she had felt several other scars on his back. They were all knife wounds, injuries sustained on the battlefield, and scars from assassinations. Scars of all sizes represented his glory and achievements, but also the dangers that lingered everywhere...

The two black-armored guards came back and knelt down to apologize, but no one was caught.

"People will come to us on their own." Qi Wuhan curled his lips, jumped on his horse, and rode towards the military camp with Ling Feng and the Black Armor Guards. After inspecting the camp, Qi Wuhan personally went out to spar with several generals. The generals were defeated with conviction, and the entire army was also convinced.

In the face of absolute strength, admiration and yearning are the best cohesive forces. Everyone believes in the same thing and follows the same figure.

Their Lord is an invincible god of war who will lead them to the glory of victory!

.....

It was already afternoon when we returned to the city. When we entered the city, we happened to meet Prince Fu's carriage, which was coming from the garden on the outskirts of the city.

Prince Fu invited Qi Wuhan to have a cup of tea in the teahouse in front. He was a little surprised by his attentive attitude. Before, he would turn around and leave as soon as he saw him, for fear of being caught by him. But today he actually took the initiative to invite him to have tea. He must be out of his mind...

After arriving at the private room on the second floor, Prince Fu first gave him a silly grin, which was a bit vulgar...

"Your Highness, where did you hit your head today?" Qi Wuhan asked casually, scratching the teacup in his hand.

"..." Prince Fu silently consoled himself in his heart. Don't be angry, don't be angry. You can't beat him. Business is more important. Business is more important... After adjusting his mindset, he put on a more honest and foolish smile again and asked in a very flattering tone, "Can you do me a favor?"

"No." Qi Wuhan refused calmly and firmly, leaving no room for maneuver.

"....." Prince Fu muttered, "I haven't even told you what I'm doing for you, can't you just listen to me finish my words first?"

"Then please speak, Your Highness." Qi Wuhan supported his head with one hand and closed his eyes to rest.

This perfunctory attitude made Prince Fu furious again. After all, he was also a prince. Couldn't he open his eyes and listen to him? Forget it, a wise man would not suffer a loss in front of him. Business is more important. Business is more important...

"That...that's it..." Prince Fu hesitated for a long time, and just as he put his head close to whisper, Qi Wuhan turned his head away, and this action of suspected disgust made Prince Fu very embarrassed.

"Your Highness, if you have something to say, please say it. Don't take advantage of me."

“.…..”

Prince Fu was finally so angry that he cursed, "Are you sick? Who wants to take advantage of you? What advantage do you have?" Before he finished complaining, Qi Wuhan stood up and prepared to leave. Prince Fu panicked and quickly reached out to pull him, but when Qi Wuhan glanced at him, he immediately withdrew his hand.

"Can you please ask my father to let me get married later?"

Qi Wuhan turned around and looked at him as if he was a fool.

Prince Fu still felt there was hope, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

"Why doesn't Your Highness go and talk to the Emperor himself?" Qi Wuhan said indifferently.

Prince Fu hung his head and sighed, "You saw me last time. I begged Father so much, but it was all in vain."

"Then why does Your Highness think that the emperor will listen to a minister like me?" Qi Wuhan said.

Prince Fu sighed again and muttered, "I didn't expect you to change my father's mind. I wanted you to help me think of a solution. You have a lot of ideas, so there must be a way."

"The Emperor has already granted the marriage in public, and the wedding date has been set. Your Highness should just get married honestly. Although Miss Cui is not as beautiful as my wife, and her temper is not as good as my wife's, she is arrogant and mean to others, and she is also the daughter of a military commander, Your Highness is still a prince after all, and she wouldn't dare to hit you. Just stay away from her in the future."

After hearing this, Prince Fu felt even more depressed. If he had known this earlier, he would not have come to him. He had thought that he would try his best to save the situation, but he ended up adding insult to injury and making the situation worse.

This kiss must happen to him, why is his life so miserable...

If Cui Jingshu had been a gentle and charming beauty, he would have accepted her fate. But she was arrogant, and her looks weren't his type. He liked Jiang Lan, who was radiant, delicate, and tender, like a flower bud, and looked like someone who wanted to be protected. He would rather switch with Prince An. Zheng Qian'er also had the radiant look he liked, so why did his father insist on him marrying into the General's Mansion...

He sighed dejectedly and looked up to find that no one was there.

Qi Wuhan had left a long time ago.

"No loyalty." Prince Fu muttered, feeling even more melancholy.

Since the marriage was granted, there has been no movement from Cui Jingshu, and she has not attacked Zheng Qianer again, as if she has accepted her fate.

"I won't marry, take it, I won't try!"

Cui Jingshu was in a bad mood when Princess Pingyang came and asked Qiu Tong to leave first. Qiu Tong put her wedding dress on the table beside her and left.

"If you don't marry, then you'll have to pay the lives of the girls from the Zhou and Zhao families. His Majesty is turning a blind eye now because he wants to give Fifth Prince some support. If this marriage falls to the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion, do you think His Majesty will still forgive you?"

The more Cui Jing listened, the more frightened she became, and her face became more and more panicked.

Princess Pingyang softened her tone and said, "Your Highness the Fifth Prince is a kind person and will treat you well in the future. When the Crown Prince ascends the throne, Your Highness the Fifth Prince was raised by the Empress and has a deep bond with the Crown Prince. Your future honors will be unmatched by anyone, let alone a mere marquis' wife."

When Cui Jingshu thought about how Jiang Lan and Zheng Qianer would be servile in front of her in the future, her resistance was reduced a lot. There was still a long time to go, and she still had a chance.

"Mother is right, I will marry!"

Princess Pingyang stroked her head with satisfaction and said, "Good child, your mother's love for you is not in vain."
