Lan Lingjing loosened her clothes, "My lord, let our memories linger a little longer."
Gu Fei gazed at the alluring body and was deeply moved by the saintess. The two lingered for a long time until noon before finally opening the door.
"Gu Lang, my name is Lan Lingjing, you must remember it."
The two parted reluctantly. In the end, Gu Fei left, looking back every few steps. Lan Lingjing wiped away her tears, stroked her belly, and a smile bloomed on her lips.
Gu Fei returned to the inn, still feeling unsettled. Thinking of Lan Lingjing's tenderness and affection, he felt a little reluctant to leave.
"Prince Gu, you're back?"
Yu Dunhua was astonished; this guy was really lucky.
Not only did he encounter such a stunningly beautiful woman, but he also returned safely.
“I waved to you so much last night, but you ignored me. I thought you were going to stay and be paired with the saintess.”
Gu Fei then realized what Yu Dunhua meant by calling him last night. He blushed and discussed it with Yu Dunhua.
"Don't spread the word that Lord Yu has returned to the capital, after all, this is not a serious matter."
Yu Dunhua chuckled, "No problem, no problem."
He also got his wallet stolen last night; their interests are intertwined.
The two smiled knowingly.
After negotiations, the Miao king agreed to the tribute request, and Gu Fei's mission was completed. He dared not linger and left Miao the next day.
Although he had left, he still thought of Lan Lingjing and was completely unaware of the changes in his body.
Half a month later, Gu Fei finally returned to the capital. After reporting to the emperor in the palace, he went back to his residence to rest.
This time, he first went to pay his respects to his mother, and then, unlike before, he did not go back to the master bedroom to see his wife, but went to the study instead.
She didn't even go to see her son; instead, her whole face and head were covered in holy women.

Xiao Li woke up on the bed. She looked at the light blue bed curtains, with five-colored sachets hanging at the head of the bed, adorned with tassels.
This time, they traveled to ancient times again, and Xiao Li became Gu Fei's legal wife, Feng Xiao Li.
This society is too unfriendly to women. The husband is the head of the household, and women are bound by all kinds of rules and regulations. They are required to obey the three obediences and four virtues: obey the father at home, obey the husband after marriage, and obey the son after the husband's death.
Xiao Li arrived at the exact time that Gu Fei returned home and began to treat his wife and son coldly.
Gu Fei was preoccupied with the Holy Maiden and began to lose interest in his wife. However, seeing the sad and resentful look in his wife's eyes, he also felt guilty.
But as time went on, he began to resent his wife for taking the place of the legal wife, and became even more indifferent to her.
Life went on like this, and Feng Xiaoli didn't feel particularly bad about it; her husband just refused to be intimate with her.
Fortunately, she already had a legitimate son, so she had something to look forward to in the future.
Three years later, people from Miao territory came to pay tribute, and Lan Lingjing accompanied them carrying her two-year-old child.
Gu Fei recognized them at a glance, and he became even more convinced that the child was his own flesh and blood, because he looked exactly like his eldest son, Gu Qingpei, when they were young.
Ignoring Feng Xiaoli's feelings, Gu Fei brought Lan Lingjing and the child back to the Gu residence.
He ignored the ridicule from outsiders; his heart belonged only to Lan Lingjing.
Feng Xiaoli was a traditional woman. After her initial sadness, she accepted the situation and even tidied up the courtyard to settle Lan Lingjing and her son.
Gu Fei insisted on making Lan Lingjing a secondary wife. When the old princess learned of this, she was furious. She was also a traditional woman and knew the importance of the stability of the inner court for the family.
Although Gu Fei was a scoundrel, he still listened to his mother. However, this time, since it concerned his beloved, he could not compromise.
At this critical juncture, Lan Lingjing looked down on the position of a secondary wife, so she poisoned Feng Xiaoli and her son, killing them both.
Everyone knew what had really happened, but thanks to Gu Fei's protection, the matter was suppressed. The public was told that Feng Xiaoli was jealous, intolerant of others, and had committed suicide with her child.
Although the old queen was angry that her son was protecting that foreign woman, she knew that the dead could not be brought back to life, and she could not let her only grandson lose his mother.
For the sake of her lovable grandson, the old princess could only turn a blind eye and let Lan Lingjing into the family, making her her second wife.
But the old princess also had a request: her only grandson had to stay by her side to be raised, and she would no longer pay any attention to her son and daughter-in-law.
Although Lan Lingjing was a little reluctant, as long as Gu Fei was still around, she wasn't afraid of not being able to have children.
So Lan Lingjing readily handed over the child. She took Gu Fei back and forth between Miao territory and the capital. In five years, she gave birth to two more sons and a daughter.
Her third son was highly regarded by the wizard and was designated as the wizard's successor. As a result, Lan Lingjing's status in Miao territory rose rapidly and became unshakeable.
Gu Fei was also very happy. With his wife's high status, he was no longer a leisurely person in front of the emperor.
He also began to build connections, and his career and family life were both fulfilling; he lived a happy life.
