"We've been married for so long, are you afraid I'll eat you up?!"

Jiang Zhiyun was instantly annoyed when she saw Xie Shuheng like this.

"I've applied medicine and bandaged you several times, so I'm experienced. I'm not afraid of any kind of injury, Xie Shuheng. I'm just afraid that you won't tell me, you know?"

“Xie Shuheng, we are husband and wife, and I am not some parasitic plant that you need to protect. I can handle it, and you should tell me if you are seriously injured.”

"I want to fight alongside you."

When Xie Shuheng heard this, he smoothed Jiang Zhiyun's hair and nodded, saying, "Okay."

"Then let's fight side by side."

"There is such a deep conflict between you and the Fourth Prince that he would do anything to kill you. Moreover, he listens to the Empress Dowager very much, but he is also very conflicted, harboring deep hostility and hatred towards you."

"He's older than you, yet he acts like a child, so immature. Someone like him will definitely be the first to be killed when it comes to fighting for the throne."

Jiang Zhiyun was not exaggerating when she said that she had witnessed such a scene in her previous life.

Even now, everyone knows that this so-called fourth prince will definitely be the first to die.

"If I'm too cruel to people, Yunniang, will you be afraid?"

Xie Shuheng seemed to be repeatedly confirming something.

Jiang Zhiyun understood.

He... must have attacked someone, probably the fourth prince again.

"I've always felt that they wanted us dead, and our fight back was never wrong. Since when has it become wrong to retaliate in kind?"

"It's really funny."

After Jiang Zhiyun said this, Xie Shuheng nodded in agreement: "Yes."

"I have some connection with the Fourth Prince."

“Before I was born, he admired my father very much and would come to my house every few days to look for his father. The palace was like another home for him.”

“My father was also good to him. He was strict with me and never gentle. He didn’t remember my preferences or my birthday. But he remembered the Fourth Prince.”

"..." Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyun was momentarily speechless.

"So, what happened next?"

“I didn’t want to compete for these things, but the Fourth Prince was very excited and kept pulling me aside to have all sorts of contests. I got annoyed one time and hit him.”

"After that, I was punished by my father and then by the emperor, who gave me fifty strokes of the cane."

"I don't know what the Fourth Prince and I are fighting over."

Xie Shuheng stopped there.

Jiang Zhiyun held his hand.

"Although I don't know what my father-in-law was thinking at the time, I've heard my mother say that he's not good with words, so he must have been doing it for your own good, to ensure your safety and well-being."

"There are too many intertwined forces in the palace. Being able to protect you is probably the best thing."

"..." Xie Shuheng didn't speak. He didn't understand when he was young, but he definitely does now.

The child wishes to care for his parents, but they are no longer there.

Furthermore, Xie Shuheng matured early and has been improving himself ever since he was old enough to understand things.

Jiang Zhiyun assumed Xie Shuheng was currently recovering from his stomach injury, and said very seriously, "Anyway, when it comes to fatherly love, I think you're quite lucky. Look at me, I have no father's love, let alone a mother's love. My older sister even wants to kill me. Now all I have left is my younger brother. I wonder what his attitude will be."

"Am I really that much worse off than you?"

Jiang Zhiyun thought that the best way to comfort someone was to use her own experience to comfort him personally and tell him that she was in a worse situation than him!

That's enough.

Jiang Zhiyun thought she was really smart.

But Xie Shuheng held Jiang Zhiyun's hand and said, "You don't need to think about those things anymore. It's all in the past, so don't worry about it. I will make it up to you a thousand times over in the future."

“Our Yunniang is the best woman. They can’t compare to her, and they just don’t have the vision.”

At this point, Jiang Zhiyun nodded: "Mm."

"Xie Shuheng, why are you here comforting me? I'm the one comforting you!"

Jiang Zhiyun was both amused and exasperated.

She had only intended to empathize with the situation.

Unexpectedly, Xie Shuheng empathized with her directly.

In fact, Jiang Zhiyun truly didn't care anymore.

The two comforted each other here.

It's kind of funny.

Everyone is afraid of making the other person feel bad.

It's like if you give me love, I will also give you the same amount of love.

Jiang Zhiyun and Xie Shuheng walked together.

His eyes were shining right now.

After the bandage was applied.

Xie Shuheng lay down, and Jiang Zhiyun nestled in his arms in a comfortable position.

"Didn't you say that you never received a birthday gift from your father when you were young?"

"Well, what happened?"

"Actually, I don't care about these things; it doesn't matter whether I have them or not."

“It doesn’t matter,” Jiang Zhiyun said stubbornly, “because I’ve prepared it for you.”

At this moment, a rather unique battlefield archery outfit appeared in front of Xie Shuheng. The material was very hard, and it was the kind of material that was difficult for an ice blade to pierce.

"So, you've been learning to make these things from Shen Huichuan?"

“I asked him how to do it, then wrote it down and found the materials to make the design myself. I learned the design from my mother.”

"We've made it as lightweight as possible. Maybe this soft armor will protect you when you wear it into battle."

"Okay." Xie Shuheng accepted it, holding the soft armor in his hand. The material was indeed excellent, made of gold thread, and it was clear that a lot of effort had been put into it.

“Every time a husband goes to the front lines to fight, his wife is worried. In between worrying, she thinks about helping if she can. You are facing troubles from both inside and outside. At this time, many people are watching you, but Xie Shuheng, please be sure to hold on. Our family still has our little rice ball waiting to grow up.”

Jiang Zhiyun was afraid.

I remember, according to the timeline of my previous life, at this point, there should be a tough battle to fight.

However, it's not in a province, it's in the northwest.

Xie Shuheng was among those who came to provide assistance.

It's quite funny, actually. When they rushed to the rescue, Xie Shuheng stayed behind to fight, while all the people who were originally defending the city retreated...

It was as if it had been planned in advance: Xie Shuheng was to die, and Xie Shuheng was to take the blame.

I think I survived this ordeal.

After that, Xie Shuheng entered the capital and became the general stationed in the capital.

Military power is absolute...

These things happened in a past life.

Therefore, Jiang Zhiyun felt that this hurdle was definitely going to happen.

But she didn't know how to say it, how to avoid it. Having experienced so much, she understood even more the inevitability of fate.

He sighed and said, "Xie Shuheng, just follow your heart."

"I only have one condition."

"What?" Xie Shuheng asked.

"No matter what happens to you, or where you go to fight, don't abandon me."

“There’s been some unusual activity in the Northwest lately, and I’m going to investigate. Are you coming with me?” Xie Shuheng said, seemingly jokingly.

But Jiang Zhiyun's body suddenly felt cold.

It seems they've already arrived...
