After saying that, before Yu Nanqing could reply, he lowered his voice and said gossipy, "But why did the Emperor want to kill you? You were the Great Jin War God who fought against the Southern Barbarians and defended against the Northern Invaders. You had made great military achievements. If we're talking about your merits overshadowing the Emperor, you're paralyzed now and have no wife or children. You no longer pose a threat to him. He has no reason to kill you."

"Cough cough..." Yu Nanqing gritted his teeth: "Shut up, you... cough cough..."

The word 'paralysis' is a thorn in his side.

How could he possibly know why the woman in the palace was so determined to kill him!

"Alright, alright, I won't ask you anymore. Don't talk, just get some rest."

After saying that, he frowned and looked towards the door, muttering, "I told them to bring the bedding over, why haven't they arrived yet?"

Yu Nanqing seemed to have exhausted herself, and her eyes closed: "...probably not."

Su Wanyan turned around and saw that he had already fallen asleep, panting heavily.

Su Wanyan sighed: "Alas, how pitiful. She should be admired by thousands, but she can only stay here and suffer all kinds of humiliation. No one even knows that her body has become like this."

She reached out and pulled his wedding clothes closer, then used her mind to open the skill system and began to study the skills in detail.

She flipped through the skill page, wondering if there was any skill that could heal Yu Nanqing's leg, but it seemed there were no skills that could perform surgery.

That makes sense, though, since this is ancient times and there were no facilities for surgery.

No wonder the system initially suggested matching the required skills based on the era.

She set her sights on the [Acupuncture Skill]. Everyone says that acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine is amazing. She wondered if she could have a chance if she used the [Acupuncture Skill] in conjunction with [Acupoint Care].

In modern times, Su Wanyan studied Western medicine and had never been exposed to traditional Chinese medicine. However, considering that she had only activated her [Nursing Skills], she had already mastered a variety of nursing techniques, so [Acupuncture] should be no problem for her either.

But then there's another problem: how do you activate the skill?

Last night, she activated the [Nursing Skill] while wiping Yu Nanqing's body. As for [Acupuncture], does that mean she has to prick Yu Nanqing with needles a couple of times first?

"Cough cough..." Just as she was getting into her thoughts, Yu Xianqing's two coughs brought her back to reality.

She still needs to find a way to get a set of bedding. Although it's early autumn and not cold, he can't just keep wearing his wedding clothes all the time.

Yu Nanqing had just said that those maids wouldn't be coming. Thinking about how arrogant the people in the manor were, Su Wanyan got up and left the room.

Last night, she was in a panic and could only rely on her fragmented memories to wander and stop until she arrived at the bridal chamber where she had been married the night before.

The maids in the mansion would all keep their distance from her, as if they were afraid of being called out by her name.

Su Wanyan didn't mind. She tiptoed and opened the door a crack. She cautiously peeked through the crack and saw that the inside had been cleaned up.

The man she stabbed to death last night is nowhere to be found, but the aphrodisiac wine on the table is still perfectly intact.

Su Wanyan slowly opened the door and gently walked in. Looking around, she saw not a corpse, not even a trace of blood.

If what Yu Nanqing said is true, then since the body has been cleaned up, the emperor must already know about the Prince Gong's Mansion incident. However, half a day has passed and there has been no commotion.

Su Wanyan suddenly smiled and suddenly understood what Yu Nanqing had said.

Not long after the man came in last night, soldiers burst in to catch him in the act of adultery.

The fact that Princess Gong had an affair with another man on their wedding night could, at the very least, humiliate Yu Nanqing for failing to properly control his wife and damage the reputation of the Prince Gong's mansion.

To put it bluntly, Prince Gong's Mansion brought shame to the imperial family and the emperor, because this marriage was arranged by the emperor.

No matter what, it was Prince Gong's Mansion's fault. Whether it was a major or minor crime depended entirely on whether the emperor wanted to use it as an excuse to make a bigger scene.

But now that she's killed him, there's no one left to defend him, and with no one to testify, she can try to explain herself however she wants.

The person was sent by the emperor to stand in for Yu Nanqing in the wedding ceremony, but in the end, it turned out to be his own fault.

Therefore, this matter can only be settled peacefully. Although Yu Nanqing has fallen from grace, he has still made great contributions to the Great Jin Dynasty. If we want to get rid of him quickly, we cannot give the world something to talk about.

Su Wanyan couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up. She had already come up with a very logical idea as soon as she transmigrated, which showed that her brain was still very useful.

However, she didn't understand why the emperor would issue an edict to bestow Su Muqing upon the Prince Gong's mansion. The Marquis of Yuanning was granted the title of Marquis, so how could his legitimate daughter be given to a useless person who was not valued?

Did Marquis Yuanning do something to offend the emperor?

The Imperial Palace, the Imperial Study.

A minister with graying temples, dressed in a red court robe, knelt in the center of the imperial study, bowing to the emperor.

This is Marquis Yuanning, who is fifty-six years old this year. Due to his early years of fighting, his face is covered with the marks of time, but his cloudy eyes still reveal a hint of sharpness.

At this moment, the emperor was glaring at him with fury: "Marquis Yuanning, how dare you! You actually dare to deceive the emperor and cover up the truth right under my nose, and substitute one thing for another!"

Emperor Yuanhe was thirty years old this year, in the prime of his life, and his majestic eyes were full of displeasure towards Marquis Yuanning.

Faced with Emperor Yuanhe's anger, Marquis Yuanning kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, Su Wanyan lost her mother at a young age. The Lady took pity on her and raised her under her own name from childhood. She was even adopted as the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family. Your Majesty has decreed that my daughter should marry into the Prince Gong's family. I am deeply grateful. The Prince Gong's family is also a good place for her."

"Hmph!" Emperor Yuanhe couldn't help but laugh in anger: "You've been in court for so many years, how come I didn't know you had two legitimate daughters? You're outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant, what should your punishment be!"

"Your Majesty, I dare not." Marquis Yuanning bowed and raised his head: "But Your Majesty, I have served the court diligently for so many years. Even if I have not made any great contributions, I have certainly worked hard. Everyone in the capital knows what Prince Gong is like. How can Your Majesty not remember the kindness I have shown you in the past?"

He had heard about what happened at Prince Gong's mansion. Besides sending someone to represent Yu Nanqing in the wedding ceremony, the Emperor also wanted…

The Emperor was certain that if something happened to his daughter, he couldn't take it out on the Emperor; he would only be able to find Yu Nanqing. At that time, the Emperor could use the pretext of appeasing him to severely punish Yu Nanqing.

The emperor's abacus beads clicked loudly, but what about his daughter?

"Su Youwei! How dare you! Are you questioning me?" Emperor Yuanhe's face turned red with anger.

Marquis Yuanning kowtowed again: "Your humble servant dares not."

"Hmph, you wouldn't dare! I see you're just being arrogant and fearless!"

Just as Emperor Yuanhe was furious, his personal eunuch, Liu Gonggong, suddenly entered and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Eldest Princess requests an audience."

Before she could finish speaking, the eldest princess had already stepped into the imperial study.

Emperor Yuanhe took a deep breath, managing to suppress his anger. The eldest princess waved her hand, and Marquis Yuanning wisely said, "This humble subject will take his leave first."
