"Li Hua, I know that you have been secretly giving advice to my Du family, but recently I received a secret letter that exposed your crime of betraying the Du family." Du Yunsheng said bluntly.

Li Hua's expression changed slightly, but he remained calm: "Miss, you misunderstood. I am not betraying the Du family, but for the long-term interests of the Du family."

Du Yunsheng sneered: "Li Hua, you keep saying that you are doing this for the Du family, but why did you leak the secrets of my Du family to the neighboring country?"

Li Hua was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Miss, in fact, all of this is my plan. I want to take this opportunity to test you and see if you have the ability to manage the Du family."

Du Yunsheng stared at Li Hua with eyes wide open in disbelief: "How dare you tease me like this?"

Li Hua stood up and said sincerely: "Miss, I don't mean to hurt you. I just want you to understand that the Du family can't rely on one person. You need to learn to think independently in order to lead the Du family to glory."

Du Yunsheng was stunned. She didn't expect Li Hua to have such deep meaning. She was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Li Hua, thank you. I understand your good intentions."

Li Hua smiled and nodded: "Miss, from now on, we will start over. I will do my best to offer advice and suggestions to the Du family."

Du Yunsheng stared at Li Hua, and an indescribable feeling of gratitude welled up in her heart. She knew very well that although Li Hua's move was a carefully designed test, it inadvertently allowed her to glimpse the true self deep in her heart.

She took a deep breath and said with a firm look in her eyes: "Li Hua, I will remember your kindness in my heart. From now on, I will cherish this hard-earned trust and go all out to lead the Du family towards a more glorious future."

Li Hua smiled and patted Du Yunsheng's shoulder gently, his tone full of trust: "Miss, I have full confidence in you. As for me, I will also do my best to contribute my strength to the Du family."

Outside the pavilion, Jiang Shaohan had already made arrangements and was quietly waiting. Seeing Du Yunsheng and Li Hua walk out hand in hand, he immediately stepped forward and asked with concern: "Yunsheng, how is your meeting going?"

Du Yunsheng raised his lips with a warm smile: "Shao Han, everything went well. I have deeply understood Li Hua's painstaking efforts. From now on, we will work hand in hand and work together to contribute our strength to the Du family."

Jiang Shaohan nodded in approval, a trace of relief flashing in his eyes: "That's good, Yun Sheng. I believe that you can overcome all difficulties."

In the following days, Du Yunsheng and Li Hua worked closely together to deal with the conspiracy of the neighboring country. They not only secretly investigated spies, but also strengthened the security measures of the Du family. During this period, Jiang Shaohan also secretly investigated Li Hua's true identity and motives.

One day, Jiang Shaohan accidentally discovered during his investigation that Li Hua was not a traitor, but a loyal man who had been lurking in the enemy country for many years. It turned out that Li Hua had been an official in the enemy country and was well aware of the threats posed by neighboring countries to the Du and Jiang families. In order to protect the safety of the two families, he resolutely returned to China and secretly assisted Du Yunsheng.

Du Yunsheng burst into tears after learning the truth. She had never thought that she had misunderstood Li Hua. She hugged Li Hua tightly and said gratefully: "Li Hua, thank you for everything you have done for me. From now on, I will cherish you, fight side by side with you, and protect the Du family together."

Li Hua smiled and patted Du Yunsheng on the shoulder: "Miss, there is no need to talk about the past. Now, what we need most is to work together to fight against the conspiracy of our neighboring country."

Jiang Shaohan stood aside, watching the couple who had once been misunderstood and now became partners who rely on each other, and his heart was filled with relief. He stepped forward and said in a firm tone: "Li Hua, Yun Sheng, you are all contributors to the Du family. I will fully support you and jointly protect the peace of the Du and Jiang families."

Li Hua looked at Jiang Shaohan gratefully, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your trust, Your Highness. I will do my best to serve the Du family and the Jiang family."

At this moment, a guard came hurriedly and reported respectfully: "Sir, there is an urgent report from the border. A large number of enemy troops suddenly appeared on the border of the neighboring country, and there seems to be a sign of invading Western Wei."

Jiang Shaohan's face darkened, and he immediately ordered: "Prepare the horses, gather all the generals immediately, we must set out immediately to defend the country!"

Du Yunsheng looked at Jiang Shaohan worriedly and said softly, "Shaohan, I'm worried about your safety. Let me go with you."

Jiang Shaohan gently held Du Yunsheng's hand, his eyes firm: "Yunsheng, your safety is of vital importance to me. I will send the most elite guards to go with me, you just need to stay at home to guard the Du family and wait for my return."

Du Yunsheng nodded gently. Although she felt a little uneasy, she trusted Jiang Shaohan more. At this critical moment, she had to protect the Du family and provide solid support for her husband's expedition.

After some intense preparations, Jiang Shaohan led the elite troops and set off in a mighty force. Du Yunsheng watched her husband leave from the city wall, praying silently in her heart that he would return triumphantly.

A few months later, Jiang Shaohan finally returned triumphantly. With the joy of victory, he hugged Du Yunsheng tightly and said with great emotion: "Yunsheng, you have worked hard. I can return safely this time thanks to your support and trust."

Du Yunsheng's eyes were filled with tears, and he gently patted Jiang Shaohan on the back: "Shaohan, you are the one who has worked the hardest. In order to defend our homeland, you have been fighting on the front line."

The two returned to Du's house hand in hand. Li Hua and the generals had been waiting at the door of the house for a long time. They congratulated Jiang Shaohan and expressed their respect to him.

At the celebration banquet, Du Yunsheng raised his glass to toast Jiang Shaohan with a firm look in his eyes: "Shaohan, thank you for always protecting us and allowing us to live a peaceful life. In the future, I will definitely take good care of you, share the housework for you, and let you live a happy life."

Jiang Shaohan took the wine glass with a smile, his eyes full of love: "Yun Sheng, with you by my side, I am not afraid of wind and rain. Let's work together to create a better future."

At this moment, Li Hua suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Everyone, this victory is inseparable from everyone's joint efforts. Here, I propose a toast to the happiness of the Du and Jiang families and to our friendship!"

Li Hua stepped forward and said in a humble and sincere tone: "Your Highness, this border trip was made possible by your outstanding leadership and the bravery of all the soldiers. Today, on behalf of the Du family, I would like to express my highest respect to you."

Jiang Shaohan smiled, patted Li Hua on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Li Hua, your words make me happy. We are from the same Du and Jiang families, and we shoulder the responsibility of protecting our homeland. This victory is the result of our joint efforts."

At this moment, the housekeeper of the mansion came hurriedly and reported to Jiang Shaohan: "Sir, something unexpected happened at home. Mr. Du is seriously ill. I beg you to return home as soon as possible."

Jiang Shaohan's expression tightened when he heard this, and he immediately ordered: "Prepare the horses and return to the mansion immediately!"
