After rebirth, the abstinent prince wants to marry me every day
Chapter 2 Dreaming back to the previous life
That night, Zhu Qing'an developed a high fever.
In a daze, she could only sense that there were figures walking back and forth in the boudoir, and someone sat by the bed for a long time before leaving.
She wanted to open her eyes, but she was too tired and could not open them no matter what she did. She could only fall into a deep sleep.
In her dream, she witnessed her short-lived life as a bystander.
Zhu Qing'an is the legitimate daughter of Marquis Wen'an, and her aunt is the empress dowager of the current dynasty. She has been brought into the palace by her aunt to be raised since she was a child. It is no exaggeration to say that Zhu Qing'an is more noble than the princesses in the palace.
Zhu Qing'an thought that life would go on like this forever. When did the nightmare begin? It started from the birthday party of the imperial concubine.
She was falsely accused of having an affair with Prince Chungui, which tarnished her reputation. Since she had been raised by the Queen Mother since she was a child, it was natural that some people would accuse her of poor teaching.
Her aunt comforted her, saying that reputation was the most useless thing for a woman, but in her previous life, Zhu Qing'an was depressed for a long time because of this frame-up.
Later, it was her fiancé Shen Shixin who never left her and stayed by her side, which helped her slowly get out of the haze.
Just when Zhu Qing'an thought that everything would slowly get better, his aunt became seriously ill and passed away without any cure.
My aunt had been ruling the country for many years and suddenly passed away. The court officials attacked her for her power and cruelty, which led to the Wen'an Mansion being in trouble. My father was beheaded for corruption, and none of my sisters and brothers had a good ending. It seemed that the Wen'an Mansion was gone overnight.
When the nest is overturned, no egg can remain intact. Zhu Qing'an, the proud daughter of heaven, also fell into the mortal world and became an orphan who was bullied by everyone. She even thought about committing suicide.
It was her fiancé Shen Shixin who, despite the ridicule and obstruction of others, supported the crumbling Shen family while marrying her when she had no one to rely on.
For Zhu Qingan, Shen Shixin is his salvation from the mud.
The days when she married Shen Shixin were the happiest days for Zhu Qingan after the fall of the Zhu family. She didn't have to hide from the malicious bullying of those noble ladies, and she didn't have to sleep in the open air. She was well protected by Shen Shixin.
She thought that days like this would continue.
Unfortunately, as the Queen Mother's former favorite niece, there would always be someone who would not let her go, and Shen Shixin also used his life to protect Zhu Qing'an on her last journey.
"Doctor, why hasn't my daughter woken up yet?"
Outside the room, a familiar, anxious voice could be heard faintly. Zhu Qing'an hadn't heard this voice for a long time. When she heard it again, she burst into tears before even opening her eyes.
"The princess's illness is caused by an external cold, stagnation of lung qi, and deficiency of both qi and blood. It's not serious. You just need to calm your mind!" The doctor assured again and again.
Wen Anhou listened to the doctor's words. Although he knew that the doctor's medical skills were genuine, he was still very anxious.
"Wangshu, go to the palace and ask the imperial physician to come again!" Wen'an Hou ordered. Although it would not be good to alarm the empress dowager, his daughter's health was more important.
Just as Wangshu nodded and prepared to enter the palace, Fuguang's voice came from inside the room, "Princess, are you awake?"
Upon hearing this, Marquis Wen An strode into the room and saw his daughter lying on the couch with a sick look on her face. He felt so distressed.
"Father!" Zhu Qing'an looked at his father standing beside the bed, and his eyes turned red as he opened his mouth.
Wen Anhou was wearing a blue robe with wide sleeves, with an upright figure and long hair tied behind his head with a plain hairpin. He was humble and gentle, and was a famous young man in Ancheng when he was young.
"My daughter! Are you feeling unwell? It's all your fault for not protecting you well!" Wen Anhou looked at his daughter and touched her forehead. Fortunately, the high fever had subsided.
The Wen'an Marquis's residence seemed to be incredibly prosperous, but he was well aware that a large tree attracts the wind. Therefore, even though the Queen Mother came from the Wen'an Marquis's residence and held great power, Wen'an Marquis never made a wrong move, remaining honest and upright, working diligently, in order to protect the Marquis's residence and for his sister in the palace.
"My daughter is much better now. It's my fault for making your father worry!" Zhu Qing'an looked at her father greedily.
Her memory still stayed in her previous life, when her father was falsely accused of corruption. The last time she saw her father was in a dirty and dim dungeon. Her father looked haggard, but he was still worried about her. Every word he said was full of reluctance and concern for her.
Now that he saw his father safe and sound, Zhu Qing'an felt fortunate.
She didn't know why she suddenly returned to the past, and didn't understand how time could go backwards, but she would never let those pains happen again. This time, she must protect the people around her.
"Nonsense! As a father, it's natural to worry about your daughter!" Wen Anhou felt relieved when he saw that his daughter seemed to be in better spirits.
He carefully instructed Wangshu and Fuguang to take good care of Zhu Qing'an and to find him immediately if anything went wrong. After all, Marquis Wen'an still had work to do, so he left.
As soon as he stepped out of his daughter's Yongfu Courtyard, Wen Anhou asked the housekeeper beside him, "Madam, didn't you send anyone to inquire about the princess's well-being?"
Butler Mai shook his head slightly, his expression indescribable.
"It's really good. Qing'an was very ill last night. Everyone in the mansion knew that she was sick, but her mother didn't care! Tell me, how could she be so cruel!" Marquis Wen'an sighed deeply, his eyes full of fatigue.
Butler Mai remained silent. It was not the place for servants like them to have much say in the affairs of their masters, not to mention that the affairs of the two masters had happened for 10 or 20 years.
In Yongfu Courtyard, Zhu Qing'an sat up with the help of Fu Guang, and Wangshu knelt beside the bed with the decocted medicine.
"Princess, good medicine tastes bitter..." Wangshu advised. Over the years, they have been serving the princess and know that she is afraid of suffering. When she has a headache or fever, it is very difficult for her to take medicine. Every time, the empress dowager has to coax her personally before she reluctantly drinks a sip.
But this time, Zhu Qing'an didn't hesitate at all. He took the bowl of medicine and drank it all.
"Princess?" Wangshu was extremely surprised.
Zhu Qing'an handed the medicine bowl to Wangshu, took the handkerchief handed to him by Fuguang and pressed the corners of his mouth. No matter how bitter this medicine was, it was not as bitter as the memories of the previous life.
"The princess had a high fever last night. The marquis couldn't sleep all night after hearing about it. This morning, someone from the gatehouse delivered something to the princess. I heard it was from King Zhongyi!" Fu Guang said as he brought out a small box.
"King Zhongyi?" Zhu Qing'an didn't know what King Zhongyi was going to give her, but she still remembered that the final winner in her previous life was this seemingly marginalized King Zhongyi.
In this life, she naturally wanted to be on good terms with the King of Loyalty and Righteousness in order to protect the Marquis Wen'an's Mansion, her aunt, and Shen Shixin.
Even after being reborn, Zhu Qing'an knew her own limitations. She wasn't a woman of unparalleled intelligence, and her strategies were mediocre. If she wanted to protect the one she loved, she had to ensure her aunt was safe and sound. As long as her aunt was there, the Wen'an Marquisate would remain unshakable.
The other one is the King of Loyalty and Righteousness, the final winner, who can only be befriended.
Zhu Qingan opened the wooden box...
