"Of course I'm happy. In the past, I always felt that Your Highness didn't value me that much. Now that you've granted all my requests, I'm very happy."
Wei Yunting touched his nose, patted Jiang Tian's back, and didn't dare to tell the truth.
How could he tell Jiang Tian that this was indeed the case in the past, but as time went by, he couldn't let go of it?
Fine, he is the king of this place. Whatever Jiang Tian wants to do, he will protect her.
From that day on, Jiang Tian went to the nunnery for two hours every day.
He personally delivered it a few days ago, and afterwards he specially arranged for experts to escort it.
Jiang Tian does have some talent and perseverance.
He never takes a day off, even in wind and rain.
Wei Yunting supported her learning, naturally wanting her to acquire some real skills.
Seeing her grit her teeth and not complain about the hardship or fatigue, Wei Yunting felt both heartache and relief.
Before long, many days had passed, and the whole city knew about Wei Yunting's favoritism towards his mistress; the people were no longer surprised.
According to Wei Yunting's plan, Jiang Tian was supposed to go out and socialize with those ladies from time to time to reinforce his image as a foolish man who dotes on his mistresses.
However, Jiang Tian was too busy studying medicine on weekdays, and he didn't dare to indulge himself too much even in one night. So Wei Yunting lost interest and only arranged two grand outings to let people know that Jiang Tian was favored.
Wei Yunting never expected that Jiang Tian would start inserting needles into her own body as she learned.
Seeing the dense needle marks on her arm, Wei Yunting's face darkened for the first time.
His anger was terrifying; the aura he had forged in the blood of the battlefield was chilling to the bone.
Jiang Tian was not afraid. She deliberately held his hand and said to him, "Your Highness, you know that learning medicine is not easy. Acupuncture is just one aspect of it. My master is willing to teach me, so I will naturally study hard. I am a little injured now, but I will be fine once I have learned it."
Wei Yunting didn't want to talk, but he wasn't an unreasonable person. If he asked her to give up, she definitely wouldn't do it, and it would only make both of them unhappy.
Instead of all that fancy stuff, he'd rather apply some medicine to her.
So Wei Yunting didn't say a word, but carefully applied the ointment to her.
After wiping her face, Jiang Tian smiled at him and said, "The two of us are like an ordinary married couple right now."
It was just a remark to ease the tension, but Wei Yunting's heart skipped a beat, and he stood there stunned for a long time.
Yes, without realizing it, Jiang Tian was no longer just a dispensable mistress in his heart. He doted on her, loved her, and unconsciously learned to respect her career and her whole being.
If they were just an ordinary couple, then that wouldn't be wrong.
That night, Wei Yunting did not sleep with Jiang Tian.
She had an injury on her arm, and he was more of a burden than a help by being by her side.
Wei Yunting sat in his study for a long time, still unable to understand the strangeness of love between men and women, and unable to understand why he had fallen in love step by step.
He could only be certain that Jiang Tian was no different from his wife in his heart.
By dawn the next day, Wei Yunting had secretly made up his mind.
Nearly half a month later, Jiang Tian returned and was led by Wei Yunting to another of his estates.
When she went inside, she saw that the room was decorated for a wedding, all in red, creating a festive atmosphere.
Wei Yunting didn't bring anyone with him. He personally helped Jiang Tian change into her wedding dress and then changed into his own wedding robe.
“You said last time that we were like an ordinary couple, and I think that’s true. I was supposed to be a lonely person in this life, but I unintentionally dragged you into my game and developed feelings for you. Thinking about it, it must have been fate.”
"I cannot give you the status of a princess, but I am still prepared to give you a wedding. From now on, you will be my only woman. Apart from what is said in public, you will be the only wife in my heart."
Even if Wei Yunting could force Jiang Tian to become a princess, once the news of his marriage reached the capital, Jiang Tian's life might not be safe.
Many nobles coveted his position as queen and wanted to place their chosen pawns in his game.
After he finished speaking, Jiang Tian was already in tears.
She said to him in return, "I used to think that Your Highness regarded human life as worthless and dared not entrust anyone with my true feelings. But after spending a long time together, I realized that I was very wrong. If it weren't for Your Highness, there would be no Jiang Tian today."
"If you do not betray me, I will not betray you."
Wei Yunting held the back of her head and kissed her lips deeply.
The two bowed to heaven and earth and then truly entered the bridal chamber.
From that day on, Wei Yunting truly treated Jiang Tian as his wife, and the extent of his love for her terrified his subordinates.
They're not stupid; how could they act so convincingly?
However, Wei Yunting was ruthless and strict in his rule, and no one dared to speak out.
Spring passed and autumn came, and one day, Wei Yunting personally carried a man covered in blood into the villa.
He quietly woke Jiang Tian, his eyes filled with deep emotions.
"Don't make a fuss, just see if he can survive."
