Chapter 501 Returning to the Capital

"I thought, as long as I have that official position, I can make you look up to me and stop disappointing you!"

"I'm really afraid to see your disappointed look.

"I hate it when you sigh at me."

"I hate it when you accuse me!"

"Do you know how hard I've worked to satisfy you?!"

“I get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs.

In order to memorize the article you mentioned, I even held the book with me when I went to the toilet."

"But what's the use of this?"

"Even if I have memorized all the books, I still cannot understand what you are saying, and I still cannot grasp your hints immediately.

It is even more impossible to produce an article that satisfies you in an instant."

“Because I can’t!

I’m just stupid!”

"Even though I tried my best, I still couldn't speak eloquently and write as eloquently as you expected."

“Gradually, I became numb.

I dare not speak in front of you.

Because I'm afraid I'll say the wrong thing.

As long as I say something wrong once, you will sigh, and then tell me with disappointment that I have disappointed you and that I am the future heir of the Jiang family.

But as an heir, I am in this state now, so the future of the Jiang family is worrying.

Next, you will teach me to work hard and learn more.

But I have tried my best!"

"Tell me, how should I work harder?"

As Jiang Qingshan spoke, he patted his chest, tears streaming down his face, and he was expressing his grievances.

"Later, I stopped talking much. I just wanted to be someone who took care of you. As for the position of head of this family, I didn't expect it anymore.

But you are still not satisfied.

You complain that I don't speak, that I'm dull and can't express my own opinions, and that I'm not up to the task of being the head of the family!"

"I said, I don't want to be the head of my family."

"hehe--"

Jiang Qingshan washed his nose and sighed in despair.

"But you said I was useless."

"Hahaha."

After he said that, he raised his head and burst into laughter.

"Father, tell me, what should I do?"

"I'm just stupid. I can't see clearly, I can't figure it out. I just want to do better and fulfill your expectations of me. Is that wrong?"

Jiang Chongfan never thought that his son would think this way.

He looked at Shen Qingshan, slowly stood up, and walked to Gu Jingchun helplessly.

For the first time, I knelt down sincerely and from the bottom of my heart.

"Empress..."

Jiang Chongfan kowtowed.

"This is all my fault. I didn't teach my son well, so I ended up in trouble."

"But, as you heard just now, we have no intention of collaborating with the enemy or betraying our country!"

"The Jiang family is willing to make up for the lost food and fodder, and we are also willing to provide more food and fodder. We hope that Your Majesty will show mercy and let us go."

Gu Jingchun chuckled.

"Master Jiang really has a good plan!"

"I made a mistake, so I just need to make up for it, right?"

"If this gets out, then where are the etiquette and rules of our Dacheng?"

As Gu Jingchun spoke, he stood up.

"Master Jiang, you understand that it's not that I don't show you mercy, but this matter is of great importance. It's far more than just a cart of food. I hope you understand."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chongfan immediately added, "Your Majesty, I am willing to give you all my property. I only ask Your Majesty to show mercy and spare the lives of my family."

Gu Jingchun still smiled.

"Master Jiang, there's no need to waste your words. I can't make the decision on your matter. Let's wait until His Majesty returns."

"When the time comes, I will tell Your Majesty everything that happened today and that happened back then, and let Your Majesty make the final decision."

Jiang Chongfan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

But after he had reacted, he suddenly raised his head.

What happened back then?

What happened back then?

He looked at Gu Jingchun, wanting to find out what was going on.

However, Gu Jingchun had already turned around and strode away.

Jiang Chongfan looked at his back and felt a bad premonition in his heart.

Could it be that Gu Jingchun already knew what happened that year?

How is this possible?

How secretive was the incident back then, and how did she find out?

Jiang Chongfan already knew this.

The court would feel much more comfortable without Jiang Chongfan, the troublemaker.

On that day, several ministers related to Jiang Chongfan were all imprisoned.

Gu Jingchun ignored them and let them stay in prison to reflect on their actions.

As the war progressed, Shen Hechuan sent fewer and fewer letters.

After Ye Wenxi returned from the border, he also described the situation to Gu Jingchun.

Gu Jingchun realized that the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic.

Gu Jingchun was very worried about this.

Princess Xingyang and the Empress Dowager were also uneasy.

But because the Empress Dowager was old, Gu Jingchun didn't want her to worry, so he would only tell her the good things and not the bad things to reassure her.

However, Princess Xingyang stuck to Gu Jingchun every day, asking him whether it was a letter from Shen Hechuan.

She was really worried about Luo Ziqian.

But this guy, apart from a few letters home at the beginning, never sent any more letters home.

This made Princess Xingyang even more worried, and she had to come over and stick to Gu Jingchun.

It was not until the news of victory came from the border that the two men finally felt relieved.

On the day when Chen Hechuan returned to the capital, the whole world was in an uproar.

The people came out in droves, standing on both sides of the road, cheering for Shen Hechuan and shouting "Long live him".

At this moment, the people's support for him reached its peak.

It was also at this moment that the era of Gu Jingchun and Shen Hechuan truly began.

Chen Hechuan sat high on his horse until he reached the palace gate, and then he saw Gu Jingchun standing at the palace gate.

She was wearing a bright yellow palace dress, a phoenix crown on her head, and a happy look on her face as she looked at him lovingly.

After nearly a year, Chen Hechuan finally saw Gu Jingchun again. He felt his heart pounding and could no longer hold back. He dismounted and rushed to Gu Jingchun and hugged her in his arms.

Princess Rongyang, who was standing on the side, kept her eyes on Luo Ziqian.

But Luo Ziqian was a minister, although he also wanted to go over and hug his princess.

However, he did not dare to move.

until……

Princess Rongyang walked straight forward and looked at him.

Said "Come!".

He pulled him directly and went to the palace first.

Luo Ziqian was dragged by her, walking very slowly, but just kept talking.

"Princess...what's wrong with you?"
