Nan Su himself didn't care; he wasn't afraid of those things. But he was afraid that the other party would hurt Wan Ge. Ever since the day he brought Wan Ge back, he had vowed never to allow her to suffer even the slightest harm again.
If they want to hurt her, then they should step over his dead body.
…
The next day, Nan Su noticed the eunuch's unpleasant expression as soon as he finished court.
"What happened?"
"It's...it's General Dingyuan...The General was invited to the palace by the Empress as soon as he returned."
Nan Su's expression changed instantly. Without thinking, he headed straight for the Empress's palace. As soon as he reached the palace gate, he saw the scene inside and a tall man reaching out to touch the Empress's hair.
"What are you doing?" Nan Su rushed in and shoved General Dingyuan aside.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Mo Jinhuai immediately bowed to Nan Su.
Wan Ge noticed that Nan Su's complexion wasn't very good, so she said to Mo Jin Huai, "Brother, you should go back first."
Mo Jinhuai bowed to Wan Ge again, and just as he was about to leave, two guards drew their swords and stopped him.
Nan Su spoke in a cold voice: "Did I allow you to leave?"
Wan Ge took his hand with one hand and gently stroked his back with the other: "Okay, stop fooling around."
After speaking, his gaze fell on the guards: "What are you doing? General Dingyuan is a meritorious official. How dare you draw your swords against him? Quickly put your swords away and make way for the general!"
The guards did not immediately sheathe their swords, but instead turned their gaze to Nan Su. Nan Su's hands, hanging tightly at his sides, were clenched tightly, but he still nodded, allowing them to let the man leave.
Wan Ge pulled the other person back to her palace, where a palace maid had just picked up the teacups that Wan Ge and Mo Jin Huai had been drinking from.
Nan Su's cold voice ordered all the palace maids to leave.
"Why are you so angry?" Wan Ge felt that the other party was acting strangely.
Mo Jinhuai picked the other person up and carried him directly to the bed. After placing him on the bed, he leaned over and said, "How dare you call him 'brother' so intimately, especially in front of me? What do you take me for?"
"Huh? He's my older brother, what else should I call him if not 'brother'?"
"You're saying that again! You said the same thing last time."
"But he is my brother. If I don't say it, how else can I say it?"
"No, you're not allowed to call him brother!" Nan Su lowered her head and kissed him, her jealousy completely undisguised.
After a moment of realization, Wan Ge burst out laughing.
"why are you laughing?"
Wan Ge looked at him and reached out to stroke his face: "So you keep sending my father and brother away because you're jealous?"
Nan Su thought about it carefully. Hadn't the Marquis of Zhennan always been there? Because he was her father-in-law, she had asked him to avoid going to the battlefield, fearing that any accidents on the battlefield would cause her heartache. When had she transferred her father away?
Wan Ge said, "I thought you knew that General Zhenguo is my father and General Dingyuan is my brother, my own brother."
"What's the meaning?"
"It seems I forgot to tell you. I am originally a daughter of the Mo family, but a master once said that my fate clashes with the Mo family and that I am not suitable to be raised by my parents and become close family members with them. The Marquis of Zhennan was my second father, who was as close as a brother to my father. My second mother and my mother were once best friends, so they entrusted me to the Marquis's mansion."
Besides the fact that the two families had a very good relationship, another reason was that the Marquis's family had no daughters, and her second father and mother both hoped to have a girl.
However, her stepmother injured her body during the birth of her younger brother and could no longer conceive, dashing her dream of having her own daughter.
But at this time, the Mo family sent them a girl. Even without knowing the reason, the Marquis's family was willing to raise her. After learning the reason, they felt even more sorry for the child and their friend's situation.
They believed what the master said because his predictions and fortune-telling were very accurate.
Moreover, the frontier is harsh and cold, and General Mo really couldn't bear to let his daughter go there with him. Fostering her in the Marquis's mansion was a good option.
From then on, the Marquis's mansion had one more legitimate daughter.
Because of the relationship between the two families, and the Hou lady's desire for a daughter, the Hou family doted on her immensely. After several years, they treated her completely like their own daughter.
However, neither family ever hid his identity from the other.
Moreover, there was no need to hide it; she was not abandoned, but rather sent to the Marquis's mansion to protect her.
After all, being incompatible with the Mo family doesn't mean she'll bring misfortune to her parents. Mo family sons are strong and resilient when they go to war, but it's she who is the one who is incompatible with them, as she has been weak and sickly since birth.
After going to the Marquis's mansion, all the symptoms disappeared, his health improved day by day and he rarely got sick anymore, and he became more lively.
This is why both families believed the master's words even more.
Every time General Mo's family returned to the capital to report on their duties, they would meet with Wan Ge. Her parents and brothers doted on her, and they would also send her letters frequently, so she didn't feel much of a stranger and always felt a sense of closeness.
When they learned that Wange had run off to a neighboring country, they were terrified. They tried to find a way to bring him back, but Wange refused, saying that he had to protect Nansu and wouldn't return for the time being.
In the end, they had no choice but to cooperate with His Majesty to completely destroy the neighboring royal family and unify the two countries.
Of course, they had conditions: Nan Su had to become the Crown Prince, and Wange had to become the Crown Princess. After all, in their eyes, Wange was the best, especially since she had been through so much with Nan Su.
The emperor agreed to their request, and so the crown prince married the legitimate daughter of the marquis's family.
…
After listening to what Wan Ge said, Nan Su suddenly remembered that she had always told him with certainty that someone would take them back.
At that time, he thought it was the Marquis's residence. The Marquis of Zhennan was indeed still on the battlefield at that time, and it was possible that he would take them back.
But little did they know that her real trump card was the General Who Protects the Nation, who would come to both the Marquis's Mansion and the General's Mansion.
His grandfather was weak and powerless, and after ascending the throne, he was always at a disadvantage, and the country's strength declined day by day. Although his father wanted to change this after he took the throne, it would take time.
Just when they were completely unable to fight against the enemy, the Mohist school appeared. General Mo was brave and fearless, and possessed both literary and military talents.
General Mo has taken back everything that was lost on the battlefield.
The year he went to serve as a hostage was also the year that General Mo won a battle on the battlefield to bring peace. Unfortunately, although General Mo was good at tactics and military strength, he was influenced by his grandfather and his logistics were not up to par. The national treasury was empty and the people were almost starving. How could there be money to fight a war?
