My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 335: King Qi is wronged
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi put down the teacup in his hand, his expression was quite sad, and he said slowly: "I have always known that life in Saibei is hard, but I didn't expect that my third brother actually had such a hard life. He never told us about this in Saibei, as if he had no intention of coming back after he left."

When he got to the emotional part, his voice paused several times.

The King of Qi is good-looking, and this makes people want to comfort him.

Gu Baozhu wanted to risk being kicked out by the old lady several times to say something to comfort her, but in the end she didn't dare to say a word.

Old Madam Gu sighed, her voice was very low, and contained an indescribable sadness.

"Your Highness, why bother bringing this up? It's all over."

Everything has passed - whether it is sadness, resentment, pain or happiness, joy, and happiness, they have all passed and will pass.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi bowed his head and said nothing.

Qin Yuan also suddenly became thoughtful.

Everything that happened yesterday is like yesterday’s death; everything that happens today is like today’s birth.

People cannot control the past, but they are always controlled by the past.

It's passed.

The past has changed from this moment to the present, but the heart cannot remain in the past.

The old lady's words sounded simple, but they were profound when thought about carefully. Although she was pointing at King Qi, it also made Qin Yuan think a lot. Since her rebirth, she has been bound by the past life.

The most precious thing in the human heart is freedom.

Everyone in the room was thinking about their own things, and the atmosphere was somewhat dull.

The silence was suddenly broken by Gu Jinghui's cold voice.

"If you were always like this, why would I talk to you? A man should live his life to the fullest. Life and death are trivial matters. How can you take these trivial matters to heart? As a descendant of Marquis Dingbei, it is more worthwhile to die fighting for the country than to bring shame to your ancestors."

King Qi was startled, raised his head and looked at Gu Jinghui, and asked anxiously: "So Third Brother was prepared not to come back, right? You have such a cruel heart. Even if you are not afraid of hurting us brothers and friends, aren't you afraid of hurting the old lady?"

"Yes," Gu Jinghui said generously, "If I can't drive the Yelu clan out of the northern frontier, I swear I won't return to the capital. If I said this at the time, people would only laugh at me, but it doesn't matter, I did it. Even if something happens to me, the Marquis' Mansion has the lineage of my sixth brother. Even if there is no one left, my Gu clan still has people. I can't let my father and brothers bleed in vain. There are separations and deaths every day in the border town. Tears and sorrow are as light as a feather. Surviving and winning battles are what I care about. This is how I have been through the past ten years."

His stern face, sharp eyebrows, unruly nose, and chiseled features...all exude a sense of righteousness that stirs the heart.

Looking at Lord Gu like this, Qin Yuan's cold star-like eyes flashed with admiration.

Live as a hero, die as a heroic ghost, that's what it means.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi was obviously overwhelmed by this generosity and was speechless for a long time.

Gu Baozhu suppressed the urge to applaud.

Madam Gu suddenly said, "Don't say these things in the future. The third son is back and has married. Let's live a peaceful life. I'm afraid there won't be any wars from now on. If you keep saying these things, others will think we are taking credit for it."

Gu Jinghui nodded immediately and said respectfully, "Mother is right. I will remember it."

The King of Qi also came to his senses.

“The court is planning to curb military generals now. In peaceful times, civil officials will rule. What the old lady said is that Third Brother’s wish has been fulfilled. He should live a good life behind closed doors. They are tired of the good life of singing and dancing. It’s your turn to enjoy it.” Gu Jinghui said, “That’s why I don’t want to have much contact with you.”

The King of Qi smiled bitterly: "Have I become so unlucky in the court? After all, I am still a legitimate prince."

Gu Jinghui said, “I’m not such a snobbish person. Besides, I’ve been in charge of the camp outside the city since I returned to the court, and I haven’t been involved in the court much. I just don’t like to associate with a sesame dumpling like you. You are white on the outside but black on the inside. A rough person like me will always suffer.”

Lord Gu spoke so frankly that the King of Qi was unable to answer.

Madam Gu smiled and said, "The third brother is quite self-aware. When it comes to scheming and cunning, he is indeed lacking a lot. When you all played together, he didn't learn anything. This shows that the saying of the saints that those who are close to vermilion will be red, and those who are close to ink will be black, is not true either."

The King of Qi felt very aggrieved.

"The old lady loved me before, but now she only loves Third Brother. Third Brother said this and really ignored my sincerity. It's really hurtful."

Gu Jinghui smiled and said, “Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. I know my weaknesses and I also know your strengths. I think it’s better to avoid fighting.”

The King of Qi sneered, "So you let me keep sticking to your cold butt, always avoiding me and letting me be turned away?"

Gu Jinghui said: “Otherwise, even if it’s like this, I still can’t escape the schemes of your brothers. I still don’t have a descendant. I don’t want to get involved in your royal family’s affairs at all.”

"What do you mean by that?"

Gu Jinghui said vaguely: "I'll tell you later."

Obviously he felt that this was not the place to talk.

Gu Baozhu regretfully retracted her ears that had just pricked up.

The King of Qi gnashed his teeth and stamped his feet, saying, "I don't care. Others can plot against you, why can't I be the one to do it?"

There is no trace of the gentle breeze and bright moon at all.

Gu Baozhu was stunned.

Qin Yuan just found it funny. The relationship between these two people was quite complicated. They were concerned about each other when they were far away, but wary and disliked each other when they were close.

The King of Qi stopped talking to Gu Jinghui and turned to Qin Yuan, saying, "Third sister-in-law, let me be frank. I know that you want to buy pepper. A while ago, the chief official of the palace kept asking for the price, and the price of pepper was raised. You didn't buy it. Do you still want to stock up now?"

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Of course I still want it. What the Chief Secretary of Prince Qi did has caused the price of pepper to fall even faster. It can be considered as helping me unintentionally. But I'm still not satisfied with the price. I plan to wait for it to fall further before buying."

King Qi said: "I don't dare to ask what Third Sister-in-law wants to buy pepper for, but I can think of a way to help Third Sister-in-law lower the price of pepper."

Qin Yuan asked: "What does His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi need me to do?"

The King of Qi nodded and praised, "It's fair to say that Sister-in-law is a straightforward person. I've said before that I've been looking for a special fragrance that has a long-lasting and faint scent that can last for a long time."

Qin Yuan said, "I've heard that many perfumers can make such a scent. Could it be that the scent that His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi is looking for has some other special features?"

The King of Qi said: "That's true. If it was just a strange fragrance, I could always find a way to mix it, but this fragrance is not just for incense, it is also a medicinal fragrance."

After saying that, he stared at Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Luckily, I can also mix some medicinal incense. I wonder what effect it has that can make the King of Qi search for the strange incense in the capital?"

She looked so excited that the King of Qi was a little unsure.
