Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore

It was a little chilly at night, and the moon shyly hid behind the clouds, casting a hazy moonlight. Haitang Villa was immersed in tranquility.

There was a dim candlelight in the room, and the window lattice reflected two embracing shadows, inseparable.

Jiang Lanyue hooked her arm around Gu Qingchen's neck with a somewhat uneasy look, and asked with a gasp:

"Brother Qingchen, isn't this courtyard going to be taken back by my sister?

We came here secretly, what should we do if she finds us? "

Gu Qingchen's cheeks flushed, as if he was drunk, and whispered:

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, the key to the courtyard is in my hand. I'm just going to stay here and see what she can do to me.

But you can rest assured, she is very weak now and can't take care of herself, so she won't come."

After a long period of tenderness, Gu Qingchen finally let go of Jiang Lanyue, breathing heavily:

"Lan Yue, forgive me for asking you to meet here. I am almost suffocating staying in the mansion.

I haven't touched you for many days. I miss the smell of you.

During this period of time, the mansion was in a mess. I was busy and exhausted, and too many negative emotions accumulated in my heart.

I urgently need your help to calm down my anger."

Jiang Lanyue's face flushed like a ripe persimmon, and she said with heartache and shyness:

"Brother Qingchen, I miss you too, and I know you are working hard for our future.

So I stayed in the Earl's Mansion to take care of my pregnancy, counting the days and looking forward to the arrival of the wedding.

I have made up my mind. Whether you can raise enough money for the betrothal gift or not, I will marry you without hesitation."

Gu Qingchen was deeply moved, and he tightened his grip on her shoulders, holding her tightly in his arms:

"Lan Yue, I have already contacted the buyer privately. I will sell some of my property and the betrothal money will be given as scheduled.

I will take on the responsibilities and obligations of a man and be responsible for you and the fetus in your belly.

There is one more thing I want to discuss with you.”

Jiang Lanyue buried her face in his neck, looking like a little bird, and asked curiously:

"what's up?"

Gu Qingchen's eyes were full of longing and yearning for the future, and he said firmly:

"There are still many remnants of rebels hiding in the capital recently. I plan to take the initiative to ask for permission to investigate this matter and bring all the rebels to justice.

Once the issue of the rebels is resolved, I will have made a great contribution and His Majesty will definitely value me even more.

By then, I will definitely be promoted to a higher position and rewarded with some gold, silver, jewelry and the like.

As long as I can be highly valued by Your Majesty, my career will be smooth and I will rise to the top. I will have everything I want."

Jiang Lanyue was startled and her face changed slightly. She was worried that her lover's hiding place would be exposed, so she asked calmly:

"So when do you plan to ask His Majesty for permission?"

Gu Qingchen sighed and said:

"It will probably take at least half a month. My injuries are not healed yet, so I am doing meritorious service for my crime."

Jiang Lanyue quickly figured out that she had to find a way to persuade her lover to move within half a month to avoid him falling into the hands of the government.

If her lover were caught, she would definitely be implicated, and then even the entire Earl's Mansion would be implicated.

Seeing that she in his arms suddenly calmed down, Gu Qingchen looked down and saw that she looked like a piece of tender and smooth white tofu. He couldn't help but want to take a bite.

He could no longer suppress the heat in his body, so he bent down, picked up the petite Jiang Lanyue by the waist, and limped towards the bed:

"Lan Yue, please, help me relieve the pressure."

Jiang Lanyue felt annoyed when she thought that every time she met him, he would get entangled with her in a sentimental way.

If it wasn't for collecting intelligence for her lover, she wouldn't have swallowed her anger and endured the humiliation and allowed Gu Qingchen to manipulate her at will.

She struggled a few times with some resistance, and Gu Qingchen suddenly stopped and asked with concern:

“Don’t move.

Come, put your arms around my neck, and be careful not to fall."

Jiang Lanyue frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and said:

"Brother Qingchen, your injury has not healed yet, so be careful not to hurt your wound again."

Gu Qingchen had long been overwhelmed by desire, and said without caring:

“I have been on the battlefield over the years and have suffered injuries of varying degrees.

This little bit of physical pain is nothing compared to you."

Jiang Lanyue was somewhat resistant and immediately took out a shield and said:

"The doctor said that I am not feeling well now and should not have sex, lest I disturb the fetus."

Gu Qingchen suddenly stopped, not daring to disturb the fetus, but unable to resist the discomfort all over his body, and asked:

"So what should my brother do now?"

Jiang Lanyue's cheeks flushed as she said:

“I have a way to find another way to replace it.

Don't worry, I will serve you comfortably and I guarantee you will be satisfied."

Gu Qingchen then smiled, with anticipation in his eyes. He suppressed the pain and carried her to the bed. The curtains on both sides of the bed slowly fell down.

The breeze blew the bed curtains, reflecting a busy figure, and soon Gu Qingchen's comfortable hum was heard.

An hour later, Gu Qingchen looked unsatisfied. Seeing the tired and charming face nestled in his arms, his heart was moved. He couldn't help but move forward and kiss her forehead.

"Lan Yue, I didn't expect you to be so capable."

At this moment, his eyes accidentally fell on her slender swan neck, and found it empty, and asked in confusion:

"Where's that floral gold necklace I gave you?"

Jiang Lanyue was originally exhausted, but when she heard this, she hurriedly touched her neck and her face changed slightly.

A while ago, she spent all her savings to buy medicine for her lover's treatment, but she was embarrassed to ask her parents for money.

Ever since her lover had to hide from place to place every day, she had to support his life continuously and find free time to do his laundry and cook for him.

After all, she was a spoiled young lady who had never done womanizing, but was willing to give everything for the man she loved.

All her gold and silver jewellery had been pawned, and in desperation she had no choice but to pawn the gold necklace with flowers given by Gu Qingchen to exchange for silver to buy medicine.

Of course, such words cannot be said to Gu Qingchen. Given his temper, who knows how much trouble he might cause.

Jiang Lanyue dodged her gaze and said in a surprised tone:

“Yeah, why is my gold floral necklace gone?

I guess it fell in my boudoir. I'll look for it when I get back.

It's getting late, I'll take you to bed."

Gu Qingchen frowned, looking as if he didn't believe it, and asked:

“Did it really fall?

I remember when I helped you put on this gold floral necklace yourself, you made a solemn promise to me.

Saying that you will never take it off in your life represents your true love for me forever.

I've been with you for so many years, and I've never seen you take it off. How come it disappeared for no reason?"

Jiang Lanyue felt a little guilty for some reason:

“The floral gold necklace was so thin, maybe it broke suddenly, so it’s normal for it to fall off.

Don't be suspicious. You look so serious, as if I have committed some heinous crime.

My fragile and sensitive heart is almost scared to death by you."

Seeing that she was avoiding his gaze, Gu Qingchen felt as if someone had punched him hard in the heart.

Carefully recalling Jiang Lanyue's abnormal behavior in recent days, he indeed began to have deep doubts.

Before, Jiang Lanyue had spoken out too long ago, and was afraid that her parents would worry, so she went back to the Earl's Mansion to rest and take care of her pregnancy.

However, during the time they were apart, he also went to visit Jiang Lanyue.

The steward in the mansion always told him that Jiang Lanyue was not at home and had gone out long ago.

He began to worry in his heart. Jiang Lanyue was pregnant and had difficulty moving around. She was not at ease staying in the house and went out frequently.

Who is outside here?

Why does she like to go outside so much?
