After the arranged marriage, she farms and survives under the tutelage of the villainous boss.

Xie Shuheng had always known that Jiang Zhiyun was intelligent, but he never expected her to be this intelligent.

He nodded and patted her head.

"Yes, my wife is absolutely right."

"Why don't you come to the military camp and be my strategist, my wife?"

"We will definitely be victorious in every battle then."

Although Xie Shuheng was joking, Jiang Zhiyun said very seriously, "I really want to, Xie Shuheng, stay at your military camp for a few days."

"You'll be setting off for the Northwest soon. You won't have any missions outside during this time, right? I'll be with you in the military camp, so we'll have more time to spend together."

"Little Rice Ball has already started babbling. If he can talk soon, he'll be able to call out 'Daddy'."

When Jiang Zhiyun said these words, her eyes were full of tenderness.

Since becoming a mother, she has become even more gentle, and her temperament is even better than before she had children.

In short, Jiang Zhiyun was never bad in Xie Shuheng's eyes; she was charming in every state.

Jiang Zhiyun kept talking. Xie Shuheng went over and hugged her. She hugged the child, and the three of them hugged each other like that. Xie Shuheng's eyes were full of smiles.

"Whatever you say, my wife. If possible, I would be honored if you could stay by my side forever."

"With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?"

Xie Shuheng looked at her with tenderness in his eyes.

Then, with his head down as if he didn't know what to say, he earnestly said to Jiang Zhiyun, "Yunniang, I still want to ask you something. If I do something bad in the future, or something that society cannot accept."

"Even if I kill someone I shouldn't have, will you stand by my side?"

"I don't expect you to be on my side, but please don't leave me when the time comes, okay?"

In fact, Xie Shuheng had thought about it countless times. If Jiang Zhiyun became afraid of him in the future, he didn't know what he would do, but he would try his best to restrain himself and show respect.

He often felt that there was a wild beast hidden inside him, a not-so-kind personality, and even a murderous side, which even Jiang Zhiyun was unaware of.

Xie Shuheng also hoped that he would always be the best version of himself, but he was also inevitably afraid that in the end his wife would leave him.

Jiang Zhiyun said, "Yes, Xie Shuheng, I will stand by your side."

"You don't even know what I'm saying, so how come you're on my side?"

Xie Shuheng didn't hear the answer he wanted, but he was still happy, at least his wife's heart was full of him.

Jiang Zhiyun shook her head and looked at him, saying, "How could you not know what I was talking about?"

"I'll just ask you one question, Xie Shuheng."

"Would you lay a hand on me? Would you lay a hand on our children?"

"No, you are the people I cherish most."

"That's it."

Jiang Zhiyun spread her hands: "These can all be guaranteed. Whatever else you do is your duty."

"No one deserves to suffer. Isn't the best way to resolve suffering the one who caused it?"

"Xie Shuheng, you have your own ambitions and revenge, but I don't understand these things. All I ask for is for my family to be safe and sound, for me to continue being Boss Jiang, and for me to do my part for the world."

Jiang Zhiyun had always felt that she had nothing left to ask for. But now, looking back on her journey, she realizes that much of it was unnecessary, and that many people were even sacrifices.

Putting aside their daily lives, let's just talk about Xie Shuheng.

He often went to the battlefield. The southwest is doing alright recently, but how many people died in the northwest?

Did the emperor ever care about those ordinary people?

The main issue is that many of the invasions were orchestrated by the emperor himself.

Look, he's incompetent, yet he wants more cities, and he's unwilling to use someone as brave and skilled as Xie Shuheng.

Jiang Zhiyun said, "The general in the Northwest is the brother of the Emperor's Consort. I know that person. He is not a kind person. He even has countless beauties in the military camp, and many women accompany him for drinks."

"He doesn't know how to fight either. When he goes there, he relies on the lowest-ranking soldiers to fight and win by sheer numbers. Right now, the chances of winning are all at a loss."

"By the time you get there, it'll probably be an empty shell. Xie Shuheng, what would you do if I told you now not to go?"

"I said, you'll die if you go. What will you do then?"

Jiang Zhiyun didn't know why, even though she had originally planned to keep all these words to herself without saying a word, she couldn't help herself now.

She unleashed a torrent of words at Xie Shuheng. Xie Shuheng stared at her, stunned. Then he said, "Yunniang."

"What if I tell you now that this life will be different?"

"If you just believe me, we can change the fate you've described, okay?"

Xie Shuheng held her in his arms, his heart aching with heartache: "Our Yunniang has endured so much."

“I’ve never endured too much,” Jiang Zhiyun said. “Being reborn with memories of my past life is a good thing.”

"No." Xie Shuheng hugged her, his voice unusually gentle. "You're very tired, you worry a lot, you're always afraid, always thinking about what's best."

"I just hope that Yunniang won't be so tired, and that I can always be by your side to protect you. I will definitely go, but I also want to tell you that it's not that absolute."

"We are in charge of our own destiny."

“Yunniang, I was indeed dying during the time you married me. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have survived that time, and I wouldn’t be here today. So, how can you not say you saved me?”

Jiang Zhiyun was a little unsure how to put it, but she still said earnestly, "But Xie Shuheng."

“You survived even without me in your past life. You are more resilient than you think. I feel like I’m not really of any use.”

"I don't think I'm as capable as I thought."

“Every time I think things have changed, I find that the next thing is still going in the same direction. Xie Shuheng, I really, really don’t want you to become like you were in your past life.”

"Okay." Xie Shuheng hugged the person in his arms and gently comforted him.

At this moment, Jiang Zhiyun was sobbing uncontrollably, just like a child.

"Cry a little longer, let all your grievances out."

"With my husband here, I'll take care of it for you."

"As long as I'm here, I won't let you suffer any injustice, okay?"

"...You're lying. I've been suffering every day." Jiang Zhiyun was very upset.

Xie Shuheng smiled and said, "Yes, so my wife should be more tolerant of me. I haven't spent enough time with you. Before we go to the Northwest these next few days, let's talk more together, okay?"

"I'll take care of the little rice ball for the next few days and take it to the military camp."

“Okay!” Jiang Zhiyun stood up and went to prepare.
