After returning from the disaster relief work, they were all rewarded, especially Gu Can, who was awarded a golden medal of immunity from death by the emperor for her contribution to the development of the medicine. She could see the emperor without kneeling.

Gu Can thought it was useless, but everyone seemed to think it was a good thing.

Whatever the emperor bestows upon us, it’s definitely a good thing.

After months of hard work, Gu Can returned to the princess's mansion, took a bath and went to bed comfortably.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yuanjing, who was sitting next door, couldn't sleep. Finally, he got up and went to his study, where he painted a scene in the rain. The world was gloomy, with only Gu Can as a bright spot.

Only then did Xiao Yuanjing fall asleep peacefully.

When Xiao Yuanjing woke up in the morning, he looked at the painting on the bedside table in surprise and panic. Finally, he carefully put it away, fearing that Gu Can would find it.

The Princess's residence had a rare few days of peace and quiet. Even Xiao Yuanjing had the good sense to go out and play with Shangguan Jinrui and the others. Gu Can finally lay down comfortably for a few days.

He also checked in with his parents about the current progress of the task. "Oh my, it's good to have my parents around," Gu Can said, feeling happy. "It's time to meet my parents."

Because of the disaster relief, even King Chuyang's wedding was postponed.

Early that morning, Gu Can was once again woken up and dressed. She was going to a wedding, but it wasn't her own wedding, and she was still so tired.

"Why do you look listless? Didn't you sleep well?" Xiao Yuanjing, who was waiting outside the door, felt a little worried when he saw Gu Can walking out listlessly.

"Why do I have to get up so early and dress up for their wedding?" Gu Can was very confused.

"Heh." Xiao Yuanjing chuckled. Why were her thoughts always so weird?

"Palace attire is complicated. Thank you for your hard work."

"Never mind, it's just some nonsense. Things might not be peaceful today, so you should be careful." Gu Can said.

"My second brother is so looking forward to the wedding."

"But the bride isn't looking forward to it. Aren't you people from Beiyuan the most particular about rules and reputation? Qi Miaowei can even become the Princess of Chuyang. It seems that you people in Beiyuan are not that particular." Gu Can felt that idol dramas were so unreasonable.

No wonder it affects the original world line.

The evil queen who brought disaster to the country turned into a sweet and pampered little wife, what else can't be changed?

"No rules or reputation can compare to my second brother's deep affection," said Xiao Yuanjing.

Gu Can looked at Xiao Yuanjing, who was actually a little envious. How could such a good person have such a brain?

"I know you are the one who despises these romantic affairs the most." Xiao Yuanjing said quickly when he saw that Gu Can was looking at him with increasingly strange and indifferent eyes.

"I'm not disdainful. I've seen the most sincere love. My father and mother are like that. They were together for life. My mother is the only one in the harem." Gu Can herself doesn't want to fall in love, but that doesn't mean she thinks no one should fall in love.

What she doesn't like is the belief that love is the most precious thing in the world, and that everyone else is an ant except the beloved one in her eyes, and that others must be sacrificed for this love.

Everyone’s life is important.

"Do you also want to be together for the rest of your life?" Xiao Yuanjing asked, with a secret joy in his heart.

"Of course it's good to have one, but putting your heart on one person, following their joys and sorrows, pain and happiness, and the ups and downs of your emotions are very hurtful. Love is the most exhausting thing. If you don't get the same response, it's only a matter of time before you go crazy."

"Could it be that the princess already has someone in her heart?"

"Hmm? Hmm! What I love is the best in the world. It has filled my whole heart. No one else can interfere!" Anyone who obstructs her and her motherland from running towards each other will be the next ghost island and will surely sink into the deep sea!

"Click"

"Princess, something seems to be broken." Guoguo said in a low voice.

"I don't know. Who cares? Everyone slips up sometimes." Gu Can listened carefully but didn't notice anything.

Only Xiao Yuanjing knew that his heart was broken the moment Gu Can nodded.

If Gu Can knew, he would be speechless. None of the things that happened between the original owner and Xiao Yuanjing happened. Why did this man like her? The feelings came suddenly, could it be just because of that face?

Unfortunately, Gu Can didn’t know.

"Let's go. If we miss the auspicious time, it will be a waste of my getting up so early." Gu Can said as he got on the carriage quickly.

Along the way, neither of them spoke. Xiao Yuanjing was very silent, and Gu Can did not disturb him.

Seeing Gu Can's indifferent look, Xiao Yuanjing was a little dazed. No matter what he did, she seemed indifferent. What kind of person was that person who occupied her whole heart? Who deserved her such deep affection?

"Their wedding was also held in the palace." Gu Can asked.

"Isn't that right?"

"No."

"Let's go."

The two of them walked into the hall and sat down side by side. The scene of her wedding with Xiao Yuanjing was almost exactly the same, except that the Anqing delegation was not there.

The ceremony went very smoothly.

"It's so bitter." When it came to eating raw meat, Qi Miaowei couldn't help but vomit.

"Fourth brother, it was you who deliberately took revenge." Xiao Yuanyu immediately thought of Xiao Yuanjing. He had done the same thing on Xiao Yuanjing's wedding day, but he had said it first.

"Your Majesty, I have observed that all the items for today were prepared by me personally. I have absolutely not tampered with them." The one kneeling was the chief eunuch beside Concubine De. Because of the previous incident, Concubine De was afraid of another incident today, so she had her confidant personally oversee the entire process.

"Yu'er, stop making trouble. Today is your wedding day. Don't joke with Jing'er anymore." Defei hated Qi Miaowei to death. It was already the wedding day, and she was still making trouble.

"Mother, I am your son."

"It was your son who was disrespectful. Please don't punish me, father and mother." Qi Miaowei took the initiative to apologize.

"It's time to drink the wedding wine." The emperor said lightly, obviously wanting to put the matter behind him.

After Xiao Yuanyu and Qi Miaowei drank the wedding wine, they both collapsed to the ground.

"The wine is poisoned."

"Yu'er."

"Call the imperial physician!" A good wedding always has twists and turns.

Xiao Yuanjing wanted to hold Gu Can's hand, but Gu Can poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in small sips.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xiao Yuanjing said softly.

Soon the imperial physician arrived and conducted several examinations.

"Your Majesty, Empress Defei, there is no poison in the wine. Prince Chuyang and the Princess also show no signs of poisoning. They are just a little depressed. Wait for me to prescribe two prescriptions to regulate their condition."

"Impossible, I was clearly weak in my limbs and breathless just now." Xiao Yuanyu really felt that he had been hit by the muscle softening powder. Xiao Yuanyu looked up and saw Gu Can's smug smile.

"It's you, you witch, what on earth did you use? (Bang)" Before Gu Can could say anything, Xiao Yuanjing directly threw the cup in his hand.

"Today is my royal brother's wedding. I have been patient again and again. The princess and I have always been together and have never been separated. Are you saying that everything is my fault, my royal brother?" Xiao Yuanjing stood in front of Gu Can.

"Your Majesty, Yue Ling has been slandered time and time again since she entered Beiyuan. I beg Your Majesty to give me and Yue Ling justice." Xiao Yuanjing bowed to the emperor.

"Father, since Fourth Sister-in-law came to Beiyuan, she has hardly ever left the house unless summoned by Your Majesty. Even when she came to the palace, she was either with me or with Fourth Brother. She doesn't have time to harm others." Xiao Mengxi also stepped forward and said.

"If she didn't have the ability to control people's hearts, why would all of you be so devoted to her? How long has she been in Beiyuan?" Xiao Yuanyu asked.

"Yes, Yue Ling has only been in Beiyuan for a short time, how come she has changed from a highly respected princess to the witch you are talking about?" Gu Can then put down the teacup and slowly stood up.

"Your Majesty, if Beiyuan can't accommodate a Yueling, please allow Yueling to return home. In early summer, the peaches in Anqing are the most delicious."

"Your Majesty, it was your will that we get married. Now that Yue Ling and I are deeply in love, are you trying to separate us? If so, please allow me to return to Anqing with Yue Ling."

"Outrageous! Do you know what you are saying?"

"Your son naturally knows that Yue Ling was bullied on her wedding day when she first came to Beiyuan. Who could she be enemies with? It's all because of your son. Yue Ling gave in and compromised time and time again because your son couldn't protect her. The princess of the dignified Prince Anchen was bullied time and time again, but she could do nothing. If she couldn't protect herself, how could she protect the people of the world?" Xiao Yuanjing walked over and helped Gu Can up.
