A concubine? You're more like a joke. I'd rather send you to your death.

This action infuriated the empress so much that she almost fainted.

He still can't forget that bitch.

"The eldest daughter of the Grand General who protects the nation is of upright character, gentle and virtuous, and deeply loved by me."

The Prince of Xiling was a brave and skilled warrior with numerous military achievements; he was a pillar of the nation. The handsome man and beautiful woman made for a truly remarkable story.

"I hereby bestow this marriage upon Bai Luoluo and the Prince of Xiling. The wedding will be held on an auspicious day chosen by General Bai Hao upon his return to the capital."

A hint of sadness lingered in the Emperor's eyes as he looked at Gu Yanchi and Bai Luoluo, as if he had seen a reflection of himself in them.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for granting my request. Your son accepts the decree."

"I kowtow in gratitude for the Emperor's grace."

Gu Yanchi and Bai Luoluo knelt down to express their gratitude.

The Empress clenched her fists tightly. What she wanted was imperial power, and the position of Crown Prince had to be her son. It seemed that this vile woman could not be allowed to live.

Yun Xinyue, your son must die too. She has been plotting for so long and she will not lose.

"Congratulations, King Xiling, Miss Bai."

..........

Everyone present offered their congratulations, though many were not truly sincere. However, given that the Emperor had decreed the marriage, who dared not offer their congratulations?

"The banquet is now adjourned. I am tired."

The emperor has lived a good life on the surface these past few years, but in reality, he often suffers from insomnia at night, and this has caused his health to deteriorate significantly.

Frustrated and unable to understand why things had turned out this way.

Eunuch Yuan helped the Emperor turn and leave.

"Respectfully seeing off the Emperor and Empress."

Everyone saw them off respectfully.

As some ministers departed, Zhang Qingyang looked at Bai Luoluo, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Seeing his reaction, Bai Luoluo took the initiative to step forward and kneel down in a bow.

“Grandfather, I was ignorant before, please don’t blame me. I will come to your mansion to pay my respects in a few days. Please take care of yourself.”

Zhang Qingyang never expected that his granddaughter, who disliked him, would kneel down before him and even say that she wanted to visit his home.

Bai Luoluo felt respect and admiration for the maternal grandfather in the book, but even more so, she felt heartbroken for the scene where Zhang Qingyang died because of the original owner of the body.

"Good boy, get up quickly."

With tears in his eyes, Zhang Qingyang stepped forward to help Bai Luoluo up.

"From now on, Luo'er will live a good life and won't let you worry. She will be filial to her maternal grandfather in the future."

At this moment, Bai Luoluo was also feeling bad. She missed her grandfather, the old man who loved her to the bone.

"Little Luo'er has really grown up. Your maternal grandfather is very pleased. Please come to stay at our house more often in the future. Your maternal grandmother misses you very much."

Zhang Qingyang's voice choked with emotion.

"Grandfather, don't worry, Luo'er will go whenever she has time."

"it is good."

"Grandfather, please be careful on your journey."

"Ah."

Zhang Qingyang left reluctantly, feeling as if he were in a dream.

Looking at her straight back, Bai Luoluo's eyes reddened.

孽 孽!

Original owner, you were really foolish, you didn't know how to cherish such a good grandfather.

"Luo'er, may I call you that?"

Gu Yanchi came to Bai Luoluo's side.

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoluo turned to look at him.

"of course can."

In the past, her friends would call her that.

She actually prefers to be called Sister Luo Luo.

After all, she would be twenty-five years old in modern times.

"Can Luo'er come to the War God's Mansion tomorrow?"

Gu Yanchi inquired.

“Sure, you can help me build a lab.”

What is a laboratory?

Gu Yanchi didn't understand these words at all.

"It's a place that researches drugs."

Thank you for helping me out of that predicament today. Now that we've been betrothed, it'll be convenient for us to research the antidote.

I can also go to your residence every day to practice my lightness skill, and then no one will gossip about it.

"If you ever find a woman you like in the future, you may bring her back to your residence. I only need a quiet courtyard. Once you are cured of the poison, we will divorce."

Bai Luoluo said calmly, after all, Gu Yanchi didn't really like her, there was no mutual affection between them, and she couldn't stand the idea of ​​having three wives and four concubines in ancient times.

She still needs to find a way back to the modern world; perhaps she's just a passerby here.

Helping the villain is helping herself; the two are just cooperating.

It's better for her to explain things beforehand; since he sacrificed himself to marry her, it's best not to be misunderstood.

At this moment, Gu Yanchi's face beneath the mask was somewhat dark.

It turned out that it was for the purpose of detoxification. Gu Yanchi thought that Bai Luoluo liked him, which is why he chose to marry him.

That's for the best. If he really has no hope of curing the poison, he certainly won't let her live a life of widowhood.

At that time, he would personally write the divorce papers and set her free.

"Luo'er is very perceptive. It's a disservice for you to marry a dying man like me. I will never make things difficult for you in the future."

Bai Luoluo's lips twitched slightly. When did she say she disliked him because he was a dying man?

“That’s not what I meant. Your poison will definitely be cured, so don’t worry about it. In public, we are a loving couple, but in private, we are comrades-in-arms and business partners.”

I definitely don't like him!

Gu Yanchi was momentarily disappointed.

"I will follow Luo'er's arrangements. From now on, Luo'er will be the mistress of the Wangfu."

"I'm just a temporary mistress. If you want to take a concubine or a maid, that's fine, as long as you don't cause me any trouble."

Even if she occupies the position of matriarch, we cannot deprive her of the right to have children.

Bai Luoluo spoke in a tone that seemed to be for Gu Yanchi's good.

If the villain succeeds in taking the throne, he'll have a harem of three thousand beauties. After she's detoxified, she'll make some kidney-tonifying pills to prevent future energy deficiency.

"I will not take concubines, much less take maids. Only Luo'er is allowed to get close to me; any other woman who gets close will die."

Gu Yanchi has never been interested in women, and even finds it annoying when women get close to him. Over the years, only Bai Luoluo has gotten so close to him, and they have even kissed each other.

Upon hearing this, Bai Luoluo lost her composure.

Is this gynophobia?

If I become emperor someday, how can I manage without a woman? Besides, I also need a few sons to inherit the throne.

"You have an illness, and I can help you treat it."

"Then I really have to thank Luo'er."

Gu Yanchi frowned slightly.

"Everyone, go home today. We'll meet at your residence tomorrow."

After Bai Luoluo finished speaking, she walked towards the palace gate.

"Luo'er, I'll take you back. After all, we've just been betrothed."

Gu Yanchi walked behind her.

"Alright."

Bai Luoluo did not refuse.

Because Bai Qianqian definitely won't wait for her.

"I'd like to send a bodyguard to protect Luo'er's safety, is that alright?"

Gu Yanchi feared that the Empress would harm her.

"That would be great, I really hope to have someone on my side, so it's convenient to run errands."

Looking back, Bai Luoluo's eyes were filled with excitement.

After all, she only had Xiao Tao by her side, and that girl was too weak. Right now, she was in need of a skilled fighter.

"As long as Luo'er doesn't object, this person's name is Leng Ye. Whenever you need to, Luo'er can just change his name, and he will appear immediately."

"Nice name, thank you."

She's so lucky; he's practically her bodyguard.

Gu Yanchi is thoughtful and considerate.

He's definitely a "dad-type" boyfriend; I wonder which woman will catch his eye in the future.

As expected, the Bai family's carriage was not at the palace gate.

Bai Luoluo got into Gu Yanchi's carriage, and the two sat quietly without saying a word.
