The Evil Emperor's Favorite: The Sickly and Poisonous Concubine Goes Crazy

"Second brother! I know. I knew him five years ago." Su Jingning's voice was firm and serious.

"I shouldn't have let him into the house today..." Su Jingmo was still angry, thinking about going to settle the score with Gu Yan'an. He didn't pay attention to what Su Jingning was saying, and it took him a while to react.

"What? You said you knew Gu Yan'an five years ago?" He suddenly came to his senses and asked Su Jingning.

"Yes. Five years ago at my ancestral home outside Yucheng." Su Jingning nodded.

"Why have you never mentioned it?" Su Jingmo asked with a frown.

Su Jingning lowered his head and thought for a while, then said softly, "He was seriously injured at that time. I didn't tell anyone, and I didn't dare to mention it to anyone."

"Yucheng?" Although Gu Yan'an was the prince of Beiyang and rarely left the northern border, how could he be in Yucheng, Jiangnan, thousands of miles away, and be seriously injured? He was mysterious and hard to understand, always revealing danger.

His sister has been in poor health since childhood, and the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion can ensure that she will have no worries for the rest of her life. He only hopes that his sister can find someone who can make her stable and happy, but in his opinion, Gu Yan'an is not the one who can give his sister a stable life.

"But Ningning, Gu Yan'an... is a dangerous person." Su Jingmo said softly to Su Jingning. If it were an ordinary person, relying on the power of the Zhenguo Mansion, no one would dare to bully Ningning, but that was Gu Yan'an, the prince of Beiyang, who not only held great power in the northern border, but was also the most trusted minister of His Majesty.

"I understand, second brother, I will think about it carefully." Su Jingning smiled at Su Jingmo comfortingly. She knew that her second brother was doing this for her own good. Almost everyone wanted to find an ordinary person because of their health and live a stable life under the protection of the Su family.

However, if it weren't for Gu Yan'an, she would never fall in love with anyone again in her life. But she met Gu Yan'an, and this time, she wanted to protect him once.

"Okay, then you have a good rest." Su Jingmo rubbed Su Jingning's head and said softly.

After saying that, he walked out, and as soon as he went out, he met Su Jingyi who had hurried over with the court doctor.

"Second brother, why did you come out? How is Ningning?" Su Jingyi asked puzzledly.

"It's okay. The court doctor can leave first." He ordered in a cold voice.

"Ah? But isn't Ningning's wound painful?"

Su Jingmo nodded to the court physician, and the physician retreated.

"Don't tell anyone what you saw today." Su Jingmo said to Su Jingyi.

"Yes, I know that. But are we just going to let him go? How about we sneak into the palace and beat him up? I just happened to have developed a new medicine recently, why don't we try it?" Su Jingyi looked indignant.

Su Jingmo glanced at him and said coldly, "Do you think Beiyang Palace is Ling Palace? So easy to get in? Besides, even if we work together, we may not be able to beat that guy."

After saying that, he turned around and left without paying any attention to Su Jingyi.

"But second brother, why don't you try my new medicine?" Su Jingyi shouted behind him.

"roll!"

The next day.

"Miss! Miss!" Yun Qing ran into the house in panic.

Yun Ya was combing Su Jingning's hair. When she saw her panic, she frowned and shouted, "Why are you so panicked? Is there a wolf behind you?"

"No! No! Something big has happened! Miss." Yun Qing said stutteringly to Su Jingning.

"What's the matter? Why are you so anxious?" Su Jingning took a sip of tea and said to Yun Qing slowly.

"Princess Xuanhe and Prince Beiyang have come to propose marriage to Master and Madam!"

"Puff!" Su Jingning spat out the tea she had just drunk from the cup. She looked at Yun Qing in astonishment.

"Ahem, ahem, what did you say? Who's coming?" Su Jingning thought he had misheard.

"Oh, it's the Prince of Beiyang who is here to propose marriage to the young lady on behalf of the Prince of Beiyang! The current emperor's sister, Princess Xuanhe, has come in person to propose marriage, and the old lady and the master's wife are dealing with it in the front hall. They came early in the morning, and the betrothal gifts were carried into the mansion in boxes, filling up the entire front yard. The master was blocked in the mansion by the Prince of Beiyang early in the morning, and he didn't even go to court."

"How come you've alarmed grandma too? What did dad and mom say?"

"Although the old lady and the lady haven't said they agree, it seems that the prince is quite satisfied. But the master doesn't look well, so maybe he doesn't agree." Yun Qing said hurriedly.

"The Prince of Beiyang said that if the young lady is willing, then she will be the only mistress of the Beiyang Palace in the future. He immediately asked His Majesty to grant the marriage for the two of them. Everything depends on the young lady's wishes. By the way, the eldest princess and the lady are in the flower hall now and said they want to meet the young lady."

Su Jingning didn't expect Gu Yan'an to come to propose marriage today. And wasn't Prince Beiyang in Northern Frontier? How could he suddenly appear in the Imperial Capital and come to their house to propose marriage? It caught them off guard.

"Let's go to the flower hall."

In the flower hall of the Zhenguo Mansion, the wife of the Zhenguo Duke was chatting with Princess Xuanhe. Princess Xuanhe was wearing a dark purple dress, dignified and noble. Although she only wore a simple pearl hairpin, she still couldn't hide her majesty. While talking to the wife of the Zhenguo Duke, she kept praising Su Jingning. No mother would be unhappy to be praised for her child like this.

"Jingning is late, please forgive me, Princess!" Su Jingning, wearing a light blue plain dress, with a tall and slender figure, was supported by Yun Ya and stepped into the flower hall. Her voice was light and elegant. She bowed slowly to Princess Xuanhe.

Princess Xuanhe saw that her face was a little pale, so she quickly stood up and helped Su Jingning up.

"Good boy, no need to be so polite. I heard that you were injured a few days ago. Are you feeling better now?" Princess Xuanhe had a kind and gentle look on her face. She helped Su Jingning sit beside her.

"Thank you Princess for your concern. Jingning is much better now."

"That's good, that's good. You've suffered a lot these days." Princess Xuanhe looked at Su Jingning with pity.

Su Jingning shook his head and said nothing. Despite the injuries on his body, he was still dignified and generous, which made people very satisfied.

"I believe you also know why I came to your house today. Yan'an is a good child. Since ancient times, marriages are decided by parents and matchmakers. It's a pity that the Princess of Beiyang died young. I am also her elder. The Beiyang Palace is willing to marry you as the Prince's Consort with three letters and six ceremonies. Today, I am here to ask you what you think on behalf of the Beiyang Palace."

Princess Xuanhe looked at Su Jingning with a gentle and satisfied expression.

Su Jingning glanced at the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, who smiled at her and said, "Just tell me what you think. No matter what you plan to do, I will support you."

She hesitated for a while before standing up and bowing to Princess Xuanhe.

"Jingning was terrified that Her Royal Highness the Princess had to come in person to propose marriage. But marriage is such a big matter that Jingning dared not act on her own." Although Su Jingning agreed to Gu Yan'an, she knew that for this marriage to be successful, she still needed her father's approval.

Princess Xuanhe breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she had no intention of refusing. This was the first time Yan'an asked her to do something, so she had to do it well. As long as she didn't resist the marriage, everything else would come slowly.

"Good boy, there is no need to rush about this matter. Marriage is a big matter. Not only does it depend on the wishes of your parents and the matchmaker's words, but the most important thing is your own feelings. Only when there is mutual affection can there be a future." Princess Xuanhe stroked Su Jingning lightly and said softly.

She was very satisfied with how polite and tactful he was. No wonder Yan'an liked him so much.

In the front hall, all kinds of exquisite jewels and delicacies from land and sea filled the courtyard. The singer had been singing for half an hour and still hadn't finished. Many people stood on tiptoe in front of the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to watch. This morning, the red gift was carried into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, which stretched the whole street.
