Jiang Weiyang knew that Su Qing was angry with him. If it were him, he would not be able to accept it either.

But I have no other choice. If I can't help King Pingnan, it will be even more difficult for him to marry Su Qing. So I can only take the risk. I will find a chance to explain it to her tomorrow, and she should understand my good intentions.

The next day, Su Qing helped Jiang Weiyang remove the stitches on his leg. The next step was to recuperate.

Su Qing never paid any attention to Jiang Weiyang. No matter what he said, she pretended not to hear it.

During lunch, Jiang Weiyang finally caught Su Qing.

"Qing'er, can you let me explain it to you?"

"Is there any need to explain? It has already happened! Hasn't it?"

"Since we are following His Royal Highness Prince Pingnan, we must work for him! It is too difficult for me to make you my principal wife. It is not that I don't want to, but there are too many obstacles. Once the crown prince succeeds to the throne, we will have even worse days. At that time, he will definitely grant me a marriage. Prince Pingnan will ascend the throne soon. Isn't it good for me to officially marry you then? This is the only condition for me to help Prince Pingnan ascend the throne. I am doing this for us, not for myself. Don't be angry anymore, okay?"

"How do you know I will agree to this if you force the cow to drink water? What if I would rather die than do it?"

"This is why I can't tell you in advance. I can only ask you to go. You have to do it. For you, for Nian'er, and for my current condition, it is our best choice for you to go and help King Pingnan."

No matter what the reason was, Su Qing was really angry, and she needed some time to digest it. Whatever happened in the palace had nothing to do with her.

"Don't go out for the next two days. It's too chaotic outside. The Crown Prince and the other princes are not pushovers. They won't just sit there and wait for death."

"Do we still need to fight? Didn't the emperor pass on the throne?"

"How can it be that simple? You have only taken the simplest step. There are still many things to deal with later! So many ministers are on the side of Prince Pingnan. Please don't be angry with me, Qing'er?"

"Hmph~ If you don't want others to not be angry, you shouldn't do things that make people angry." After saying that, Su Qing put down her chopsticks, got up and left.

No matter who becomes the emperor, she will still be herself, and that cannot change the fact that she cannot return to the modern era.

Jiang Weiyang was also very annoyed. He watched Su Qing leave and he couldn't stand up.

"Rufeng, push me to follow Aunt Su."

Su Qing walked towards the old lady's courtyard, and Rufeng pushed Jiang Weiyang behind her. Throughout the afternoon, Jiang Weiyang followed wherever Su Qing went. Finally, Su Qing had no choice but to sit in the room and look at the account book, while Jiang Weiyang was called into the palace.

Jiang Weiyang didn't come back until nightfall, and Su Qing didn't care whether he came back or not, and went to bed first.

When I woke up the next day, Jiang Weiyang was still missing, and I couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"Rumei~~"

"The humble position is here!"

"Where is the Lord?"

"The Lord has not returned."

Su Qing felt that something was wrong.

"Tell Ru Hu Ru Yi to come see me."

"Yes."

Su Qing thought that if Jiang Weiyang was okay, he would definitely send someone back to inform her, he wouldn't do it so silently.

"Aunt, Ruhurushi is outside. Can we let them in?" Wu Yanran asked Su Qing quickly when she saw Ruhurushi coming.

"come in!"

"Greetings to Aunt Su."

"No need to be polite. I want you to quickly check if there are any changes in the palace. The Marquis was summoned to the palace last night and has not returned since then. There is no news. You must ensure your own safety. Your safety is more important than news. Don't sacrifice yourself for news, understand?"

"I humble my position and take orders."

After they left, Su Qing fell into deep thought. If they fought in a big way, it would be fine. It seemed that this would be a war without gun smoke. She hoped that Jiang Weiyang could return safely. After all, he was at a disadvantage because he was unable to move.
