As Gong Yu came out of the hall, a thin figure ran towards him from a distance.

Yuan Wen stretched out his arms to block Gong Yu's way, "Where's Rourou?"

Yuan Wen looked stubborn, as if he would keep pestering her if she didn't tell him.

Gong Yu said, "Looking for her? Go to the Shen Mansion. She is Madam Shen now."

After saying that, Gong Yu was about to leave, but Yuan Wen flashed in front of him again.

"You know I'm not talking about the one from the Shen Mansion."

Although Yuan Wen fell into a coma that day, she was safe and sound because Rourou saved her.

But after waking up, she couldn't find Rourou.

There was no sign of Rourou anywhere.

She didn't know what to do, but she felt that Gong Yu must know something.

Gong Yu looked indifferent, "I don't know, get out of the way."

Yuan Wen still stood there motionless, "I won't! Tell me where Rourou is."

Gong Yu's eyes flickered, "Of course I can, but are you sure you want to ask now?"

Yuan Wen followed her gaze and saw Shang Jiu walking towards them.

Yuan Wen turned around and found that Gong Yu took the opportunity to walk out of her defense range.

Shang Jiu and Gong Yu passed each other and looked at each other.

Although he didn't say anything, his eyes said everything he wanted to say.

Shang Jiu came to Yuan Wen and asked, "What are you doing?"

Yuan Wen said, "I didn't do anything. I just had something to ask him."

Yuan Wen was also afraid that Shang Jiu would discover the fake Su Rou.

Shang Jiu said, "What does he know? You might as well ask me directly. I know more than him."

Yuan Wen shook his head, looking lonely.

Did Rourou leave again, or did Gong Yu do something to her that made her disappear in the South Country?

In fact, Yuan Wen believes more in the relationship between Gong Yu and Su Rou, and Gong Yu is unlikely to do anything to hurt Rou Rou.

Upon returning to the General's Mansion, Huang Liao immediately came to greet him, "General, what does His Majesty say? When should we leave for Jingzhou again?"

Gong Yu sat down on the armchair again, pinching his brows tiredly, "I probably won't be able to go for a while. His Majesty has begun to notice the Gong family's actions."

Huang Liao said, "News came from Jingzhou that the girl had led people into the desert. We had already arrived in Jingzhou, but we were captured and brought back!"

Huang Liao was so angry that he couldn't vent it, and he felt somewhat helpless.

Gong Yu said, "There will be some movement in the east, otherwise His Majesty wouldn't be so anxious and ask us to come quickly."

Huang Liao asked, "So what are your plans next, General?"

Gong Yu said, "We will stay in the South and wait for an opportunity. If a war breaks out in the East, we will have no choice but to protect the people and go to war."

Then I will find an opportunity to go to the desert and meet up with Su Rou.

Huang Liao said, "But...what about the girl? She has already entered the desert. If no one helps her, I'm afraid..."

Huang Liao hesitated to speak, and stopped talking halfway through.

Gong Yu knew what he meant.

I'm just worried about Su Rou.

Gong Yu said, "Su Rou now won't necessarily encounter any unsolvable troubles. She was able to capture Jingzhou City, which was occupied by the desert people, within a month. Although it took a long time, the enemy is from the east. Do you think she is still the same Su Rou from the South?"

Huang Liao swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

If the person who delivered the information was not from their Gong family, Huang Liao would have suspected that someone was impersonating the person who delivered the information and sending them false information.

Taking Jingzhou City within a month is not an uncommon achievement for either the Gong or Su family.

He recalled that his general had followed the general to the battlefield, and with only a hundred men he had taken down a thousand-man assault battalion in the desert.

Although the credit for this matter was later taken away by the deceased eldest son, everyone in their family knew that it was the second son who did it.

There is also the Su family. Among the three generals of the Su family, didn’t each of them become famous at a young age?

There is a major flaw in Su Rou's ability to do this: she is a woman.

Although she is not as capable as a man, being able to do this is enough to prove that Su Rou is capable.

When Huang Liao looked at Gong Yu again, he could not see any worry on Gong Yu's face, but his brows were furrowed, and he obviously looked like he was troubled.

The general trusts Miss Su very much...

Huang Liao said, "I am stupid. I didn't believe Miss Su."

Gong Yu said, "What I'm worried about now is what the Eastern Desert wants to do."

Huang Liao said, "This is really a headache."

It has been almost three months since Fake Su Rou and Shen Yao got married.

Fake Su Rou's belly grew bigger and bigger.

"Madam, would you like to have some candied fruit?" The maid was waiting by the side.

Fake Su Rou lay leisurely in the rocking chair.

She shook her head. "I don't want anything sweet. I want something sour."

The maidservant said, "Madam, your appetite really suits the saying that sour boys and spicy girls. I will go to the kitchen to find some sour apricots. The master often brings some back lately."

Fake Su Rou propped herself up and got up from the chair. "It's okay, I can get it myself."

"where are you going?"

Shen Yao's voice sounded from behind.

When the fake Su Rou turned around, she found that Shen Yao had returned.

Fake Su Rou looked ecstatic, a smile on her face, "Are you done? How come you're back so soon?"

Shen Yao was a little tired. "I'm done. I've called a doctor to check you out."

Fake Su Rou came to his side and hooked her finger around Shen Yao's hand. "I'm fine. There's no need to ask the doctor to check my pulse every few days. I don't go anywhere on weekdays. If our child can't bear this, then even if he is born, he will probably be a sickly child. It would be better to strangle him to death."

There was a hint of coldness in the fake Su Rou's eyes when she said this.

Shen Yao raised his hand and scratched her nose. "If everyone follows your method of raising children, then the entire Southern Kingdom should be full of strong people. I'm afraid something might happen to your baby, so I call the doctor every now and then."

Children in the desert face elimination from birth. Children with weak bodies will be thrown into the desert to fend for themselves.

She didn't know who her parents were, but she wanted to thank her parents, whom she had never met, for giving birth to a woman who looked exactly like Su Rou.

Su Rou was born into a noble family and was a lady from a prominent family. I stayed here in Su Rou's place, and now all these things belong to her.

Su Rou's mother and brother would never let her suffer.

After A Yao was dismissed from his official position by the Emperor of the Southern Kingdom, he became just an ordinary citizen. Without a salary, he could only do business on his own.

But the betrothal gifts that A Yao gave her had already gone into Su Fu's pocket.

She had heard that there was such a rule in the Central Plains, that the betrothal gifts belonged to the woman's family, and only the dowry prepared by the woman's family could be taken back by the woman.

But those idiots in the Su Mansion actually gave her Shen Yao's betrothal gift and asked her to bring it back.

Just this little bit is enough to show Su Rou's status in the Su Mansion.

so good……

Other families favor boys over girls, and even the status of a legitimate daughter is not as good as that of a concubine's son in the mansion.

But these are all hers now.

Fake Su Rou shook her head and leaned her head in Shen Yao's arms, "It's okay, don't worry about this child. I'm in good health. Even if something unexpected happens, I can still have another one for you."

Shen Yao said, "Why do you treat this child so lightly? No matter how many children it is, we should protect them well."

Of course, there is no need to take the baby in her belly seriously. It doesn't matter even if it miscarries.

Because this isn't her and Ayao's child...

The fake Su Rou held Shen Yao's hand and secretly tightened it.

If it weren't for Su Chi, she would have been pregnant with her and A Yao's child a long time ago!

"Mr. Shen." A middle-aged man carrying a cloth bag walked up the steps from outside the door.

Shen Yao turned around and introduced the fake Su Rou, "He is the apprentice of the old doctor who examined you earlier."

Fake Su Rou didn't answer him, but nodded politely at him, then looked up at Shen Yao, "I want to eat sour apricots, can you help me get some from the kitchen?"

She was with Su Chi first, and although she also had her wedding night with A Yao later, she was afraid that this person would find out something.

Shen Yao said, "Ask him to feel your pulse first, and I'll get it for you later."

Fake Su Rou: “?”

A Yaodu was not present when the doctor took her pulse earlier.
