Su Yujiao asked, "This time the plague in Shu has affected a wide area. I heard that the Crown Prince will personally go there to control the plague?"

"Well, this mission is very dangerous. On the surface, it's the Emperor training the Crown Prince, but in reality, it's a scheme by Concubine Jing and the Third Prince."

"They hope the prince will be infected with the plague. Even if he is not infected, the journey will surely be full of dangers."

Gu Heng had no reservations about Su Yujiao.

Su Yujiao asked again: "Will you go this time too?"

Gu Heng nodded again: "As the prince's companion, I will naturally go with him."

Su Yujiao hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Brother Gu, can you take me with you?"

"I heard about the patient's symptoms from some doctors. Maybe I can cure him."

Gu Heng stood up excitedly: "Can you cure smallpox?"

This is the most contagious and deadly smallpox plague. Even Doctor Mo can't cure it. How could she be able to cure it?

Su Yujiao nodded. If it was any other plague, she would have no way to cure it.

But if it was smallpox, she did have a way to prevent it.

Smallpox virus cannot be cured, but it can be prevented by getting the cowpox vaccine.

"I can't cure those who have already contracted the plague, but I have ways to prevent others from being infected."

"It's just that the medicine to prevent smallpox needs to be extracted from the patient, so I want to go with you."

"I don't have to go to Shu, as long as I can come into contact with patients with the plague."

Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, Gu Heng gradually calmed down after his excitement.

"The epidemic area is dangerous, you'd better not go there."

"If you trust me, I can do it for you..."

Su Yujiao interrupted him: "I have to go."

"It's not easy to make a smallpox vaccine. You haven't studied medicine, so you don't know how to prevent it. If you're not careful, you could get infected."

"Also, I had selfish motives when I went to make the vaccine this time."

"If I can accomplish great things, the Emperor will surely reward me handsomely, and I'll be able to rescue my elder brother."

After hearing this, Gu Heng realized why she insisted on going to the epidemic area. It turned out that she wanted to make a contribution and save Su Yujing.

In this case, he couldn't stop it no matter what.

"We will set out the day after tomorrow morning. You can pretend to be my follower and follow the team."

"Can you come out?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Ziqian will accompany you to protect the prince."

Su Yujiao was also aware of this. Lu Ziqian and the prince were cousins, and he was destined to be the prince's man since birth.

This mission is dangerous, and the Queen will definitely send Lu Ziqian for personal protection.

Su Yujiao nodded: "I can come out."

"Aren't you going to let Lu Ziqian know?"

"I'm afraid this trip will take several months. How are you going to explain this to the General's Mansion?"

"I have my own way."

"Besides, I'm about to divorce Lu Ziqian. I'm free to go wherever I want. Why should I give instructions to the General's Mansion?"

The two discussed some details before leaving.

Su Yujiao returned home and went straight into the small kitchen, busying herself until dark.

As soon as Lu Ziqian stepped into the yard, he smelled the long-lost fragrance of food, and his mood became very good.

"You're back, hurry up and wash your hands and eat."

Su Yujiao came over with a sweet smile, holding a warm, wet towel in her hand, and pulled his hand over to wipe it gently.

Then, she took the teacup from Xiaotao's hand and stood on tiptoe to bring it to his mouth.

The man rinsed his mouth, and she held the spittoon and waited quietly.

Lu Ziqian enjoyed her attentive care and chuckled, "Why did you change your nature today and stop making trouble?"

Su Yujiao took the man's hand and walked towards the dining table. She turned around and said something shyly. Her charming eyes made people's bones go soft.

"Am I such an ignorant person?"

"Husband, try this."

Su Yujiao picked up a piece of roasted lamb that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and placed it in the man's bowl. Then she held her chin with her small hand and looked at him lovingly.

"Is it tasty?"

The man took a bite and found it delicious as always. This was what human beings should eat.

Seeing that he was too busy eating to pay attention to her, Su Yujiao smiled and her eyes curved into crescents.

Then she put a piece of tender fish meat that had been deboned into the man's bowl.

Lu Ziqian enjoyed her feeding him happily, and his brows relaxed a lot.

It’s better for women to be gentle, just like now, tender, considerate and well-behaved.

"Husband, are you full?"

The man looked at her smiling eyes and suddenly became interested. He pulled her into his arms and kneaded her naturally with one hand: "You are being so attentive for no reason. Do you want it again?"

"Um...are you wearing it?"

Su Yujiao blushed as she sat on the man's lap, her soft lips pressed against his ear: "I want a child."

"You promised me, don't go back on your word."

Listening to the woman's sweet voice, Lu Ziqian curled his lips and smiled. No wonder she suddenly changed her personality. It turned out to be for the child.

He had said long ago that as long as he asked for a child, she would be grateful!

Lu Ziqian looked at her with a playful look, and deliberately used his hands to play tricks, tightly hugging her slender waist and pressing their bodies together.

"It's a pity for you to give birth to a child in this state."

"I can't touch you now that you're pregnant... I'm really reluctant."

When he was in a good mood, he often used some swear words from the military camp.

Su Yujiao endured the psychological discomfort and continued to please him.

She used to love him, and she felt shy and sweet in everything he did.

But now, she resisted every time he touched her.

"Once I get pregnant, I will naturally... naturally arrange for a maid to accompany you."

"No... I won't let you endure it for too long..."

Lu Ziqian suddenly burst into laughter and couldn't help pinching her face: "Are you willing to do that?"

"You have a reputation for being jealous."

Su Yujiao's lips trembled slightly, and she looked like she was about to cry: "Don't you want a child again?"

Seeing that she was about to cry, Lu Ziqian stopped teasing her and strode to the bedroom with her in his arms: "I always keep my word, and I want it now."

Su Yujiao couldn't help but hit the man's shoulder: "Ziqian, put me down, I feel like vomiting."

Lu Ziqian paused and immediately let go.

"sick?"

"I just ate too much, I want to go for a walk in the garden to help digest it."

Hearing her say this, Lu Ziqian felt that he had eaten too much and his stomach was bloated.

He took her hand and said, "I'll go around with you."

Su Yujiao looked at him flattered, smiled happily, and held his fingers.

The two of them walked hand in hand in the quiet moonlight under the starry sky, and the atmosphere was very ambiguous.

She had imagined countless times the scene of the two of them walking hand in hand...

Now her fantasy has come true, but unfortunately, this is not her expectation, but her calculation...

She never thought that one day she would plot against him!

The servants in the mansion saw the two of them talking and laughing, taking walks together, and even discussing what to name their future child. They all knew that the young lady had finally reaped the rewards of her hard work.

From now on, she is no longer a decoration, but the real mistress of the general's mansion.
