Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Shen Nankui was still retching and had no time to pay attention to her.

Gu Yichuan wanted to break free but couldn't. He only hated himself for not being able to endure the torture for her. His eyes were bloodshot and the coldness in them was like a sharp sword.

"let me go!"

Princess Yongjia was stung by the hatred in his eyes. She snorted coldly and waved her hand, "Let him go."

After Gu Yichuan was freed, he immediately rushed to Shen Nankui, patted her back to help her calm down, and poured her some tea to rinse her mouth.

But Shen Nankui's pain never eased at all, until she was exhausted and collapsed in the chair, her face so pale that it looked inhuman.

Qingxu watched all this with a frown, and suddenly came close to Princess Yongjia and whispered something.

I don't know what was said, but Princess Yongjia's face suddenly changed and she stood up.

Gu Yichuan blocked Shen Nankui tightly like an old hen protecting her cubs. He clenched his fists and said coldly, "My princess, you forced my wife to this point. Do you really think I am dead? If you dare to bully my wife again, I will be so angry that blood will splatter five steps away!"

Ge Da sneered, "Boy, you dare to threaten the princess? You don't know your own limitations!"

Gu Yichuan's eyes showed a desperate determination, "The princess has done everything just to force me to surrender, but I don't know if the princess can still do what she wants if there is a dead body in front of you?"

"You would rather die than marry me?" Princess Yongjia looked shocked.

Gu Yichuan's face was full of disgust, and he uttered two words coldly, "No, I don't want to."

Princess Yongjia looked at him quietly, curled her lips and smiled, "Forget it, the three-day deadline has not yet arrived, I will assume that you are just talking nonsense because you are mad. After all, if you really reject me, let alone your family, I will never let your wife go. This princess has a hundred ways to make her live a life worse than death. Gu Lang, do you really want to see her suffer like this, or are you willing to leave her to die?"

Gu Yichuan clenched his fists, and his anger was like someone poured a bucket of cold water on him.

Yes, his wife is so innocent, how could she be implicated by him like this?

Everything was caused by him. It doesn't matter if he dies, but how can he feel at ease if his wife is left to suffer?

In a trance, Gu Yichuan felt someone holding his hand.

Shen Nankui stood beside him. Although his face was pale, he said firmly: "Yichuan, I said that as long as you don't let me down, I will never let you down. If you die, I am willing to follow you."

"Nan Kui, you..."

Gu Yichuan was filled with grief and wanted to speak with red eyes, but was interrupted by Shen Nankui.

"Yichuan, we agreed to stay together for life, and we will never change our minds. If you leave, do you want me to live alone? Besides, things may not have reached the worst point. Even if the Jing Palace can cover the sky with one hand, it cannot stop the justice of the law and the fairness of the world. If you and I are really forced to death, how long can the Jing Palace laugh?"

Looking at her calm eyes, Gu Yichuan's heart slowly calmed down.

"Okay, let's face it together."

Princess Yongjia looked at the two people's clasped hands and felt that it was very dazzling. She sneered and said, "What a loving couple you are. This princess wants to see if you can still say these words in three days!"

"let's go."

She stormed out angrily.

As soon as the person left, Shen Nankui couldn't hold on anymore and fell backwards somewhat exhausted. Gu Yichuan hurriedly embraced her.

Zhong Shan came in hurriedly from outside at this time, wiping his tears and said: "It's all my fault for being useless and unable to stop them..."

Shen Nankui smiled bitterly and said, "The other party is the princess. Even we are powerless to resist, let alone you. I'm tired. Please clean up the house and boil a pot of hot water."

"Okay, little man, let's go now."

Seeing Shen Nankui looking so weak, Zhong Shan couldn't help but say, "Madam, you should also take care of yourself and think long-term about everything..."

Although he didn't know whether it would be useful to take the long view, he really didn't know what to say.

It was obvious that the young master and his wife were a loving couple, so why was God so blind as to separate them?

Zhong Shan was filled with sorrow and was about to cry, but he was afraid that his two masters would be sad, so he hurriedly buried his head in cleaning.

Gu Yichuan helped Shen Nankui sit down, guilt, grief and anger piled up in his heart, making him not know how to start.

Shen Nankui smiled and shook his hand, "It's okay, Yichuan, as long as I'm with you, none of this matters."

Gu Yichuan sighed, "Nan Kui, I have failed you a lot."

Shen Nankui was silent for a moment, then asked, "When will His Majesty summon you?"

"...Five days later."

"Five days, isn't that too late?"

Gu Yichuan's eyebrows were locked with worries, and he whispered: "The three-day deadline set by Princess Yongjia can give us a break, but this small courtyard is under guard. If we can pass the message out, there may be a turning point."

"My husband and I are thinking alike."

Princess Yongjia's behavior will certainly not be tolerated by the world. The most urgent task is to reveal her crimes to the world as soon as possible.

Shen Nankui also lowered his voice, "Yichuang, there should be a dog hole in this courtyard, but I don't know where it is."

The courtyard was connected to her private residence in her previous life. The house was close to the wall of the garden, and there was a dog hole leading to here. After moving into the courtyard in Qingyu Lane, she also looked for the dog hole. Although she did not find it, she remembered it very clearly that the dog hole had always been there and had not been blocked by anyone.

Gu Yichuan's eyes lit up, "I'll write a letter right away. Although I don't have many connections in Beijing, I believe there will be someone who will speak up for us!"

"I'll go too, but I have to wait a while."

"Why?"

Shen Nankui said helplessly: "You forgot that Princess Yongjia sent someone to Muyinglou to pack food for you. I'm afraid she will be here soon. We can't let her see the flaws."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Yue walked in.

Shen Nankui found it a little ridiculous that an outsider could act so oblivious to others in her own home.

"The food has been delivered. I will go back and report."

Qiao Yue put the food box down, bowed, and left the room.

Gu Yichuan snorted coldly and shouted, "Zhongshan, throw these things out!"

Shen Nankui hurriedly stopped him, "Why bother with food? I'm hungry too, and Zhong Shan has more important things to do tonight, so let's not bother him to light the fire, let's open it and see what's in here first."

After hearing this, Gu Yichuan laid out the food in the lunch box one by one.

Shen Nankui picked two light dishes and placed them in front of him, saying with a smile, "Eat quickly, you still have work to do after you finish eating."
