Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan exchanged glances, and a hint of nervousness flashed in each other's eyes. Du Yunsheng said, "Please ask him to come in."

Soon, a man in armor and with an imposing manner walked into the room. He bowed and said, "I am Li Qingfeng, representing the General's Mansion of the Western Expedition, to convey the good news to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."

Jiang Shaohan returned the greeting with a calm tone, "Emissary Li, do you have any good news to tell me?"

Li Qingfeng took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Jiang Shaohan: "This is a letter from the General Zhengxi. He mentioned that there is a young lady in his mansion who is about the same age as the prince, talented and beautiful. He is interested in marrying into your family and has come to seek the opinions of the prince and the princess."

Du Yunsheng took the letter and read it carefully, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She handed the letter to Jiang Shaohan: "Shaohan, take a look."

Jiang Shaohan took the letter, thought for a moment, and said, "Yun Sheng, we have been married for many years and have a deep relationship. There is no need to marry someone else. I will reject this letter."

Du Yunsheng smiled slightly, with a determined light in his eyes: "Shao Han, we are a couple with deep affection, and we don't need him to beg. I will take care of this reply letter."

Seeing this, Qingfeng Li was slightly stunned, then said goodbye with a smile.

After Li Qingfeng left, Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan were silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Du Yunsheng broke the silence and asked softly, "Shaohan, do you know why I rejected this marriage?"

Jiang Shaohan looked at her tenderly: "Yun Sheng, you don't have to say more, you already know my feelings."

Du Yunsheng smiled gently, his eyes full of happiness: "Shao Han, since we got married, you have protected me from wind and rain and given me the warmth of home. This friendship is the most solid support in my life. I can't imagine what life would be like without you."

Jiang Shaohan held Du Yunsheng's hand tightly, his eyes full of affection: "Yunsheng, I feel the same way. You are the most important person in my life, and I am willing to give everything for you."

At this time, a servant from the palace came running in and reported: "Crown Prince, Crown Princess, there is a group of people coming to the palace. I heard that they are envoys from neighboring countries, coming to congratulate the Crown Prince and Crown Princess on their great happiness."

Du Yunsheng and Jiang Shaohan looked at each other and knew in their hearts that this was another test. Du Yunsheng took a deep breath and said, "Shaohan, let's go meet them."

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw a group of envoys in gorgeous costumes dismounting and bowing to them. An envoy in a purple robe stepped forward with a smile on his face: "I am an envoy from a neighboring country, and I have come to congratulate the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess on their great happiness."

Jiang Shaohan replied, "Thank you, envoy. I wonder what your envoy is here for?"

The messenger smiled and replied, "My country's general has ordered me to bring a treasure to the crown prince and his wife as a token of respect."

The envoy took out a crystal clear jade pendant from his bosom and handed it to Jiang Shaohan: "This jade pendant is called 'Tongxin', which means the friendship between the two countries will last forever. May the prince and the princess live in love and affection until old age."

Du Yunsheng took the jade pendant, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She knew that this was the honor of the General Zhengxi Mansion, and even more so the luck of the couple.

Jiang Shaohan hung the jade pendant around Du Yunsheng's neck and said, "Yunsheng, this jade pendant represents the feelings of our husband and wife. I hope we can work together and spend our lives together."

Du Yunsheng's eyes were filled with tears. She knew that no matter how bumpy the road ahead was, as long as they held hands and were heart to heart, they would be fearless.

In the quiet study, the pages of the book in Du Yunsheng's hand turned lightly like flowing water. The leaping words seemed to contain mysterious magic, which attracted her deeply and immersed her in the ocean of knowledge. Jiang Shaohan's eyes followed her focused expression, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

"Yun Sheng, what kind of wonderful book are you reading?" Jiang Shaohan gently put down the sword in his hand, walked slowly to Du Yunsheng's side, and asked gently.

Du Yunsheng raised his eyes, a ripple of embarrassment appeared in his eyes, "This is a book called "The Art of War". I want to explore the military's tactics and strategies, maybe it will be helpful to the defense of the general's mansion."

Jiang Shaohan's lips curled up into a gentle smile. He knew Du Yunsheng's intelligence and knew that her intention was not only to learn about military affairs, but also to care deeply about the people in the mansion. "Okay, then you can recite a passage for me. I'd like to hear your opinion."

Du Yunsheng agreed and pointed to a chapter in the book. "It says that the key to using troops is to know yourself and the enemy. General, I'm wondering if we should strengthen our detection of the enemy situation around us?"

Jiang Shaohan pondered for a moment, and said firmly, "Indeed, only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle. I will immediately send people to the border to strengthen reconnaissance and conduct more rigorous drills for the guards in the palace."

They walked side by side, through the fragrant flower path in the garden, and came to the martial arts training ground in the mansion. At this time, the guards in the mansion were practicing swordsmanship, their movements were uniform and their momentum was as high as a rainbow.

"Yun Sheng, what do you think of their swordsmanship?" Jiang Shaohan asked.

Du Yunsheng observed carefully for a moment and said slowly: "Although their swordsmanship is neat, it seems to lack some agility. Perhaps we can invite swordsmen from the martial arts world to come here and give everyone some advice."

Jiang Shaohan's eyes flashed with approval, "This is a good idea, I will arrange it immediately."

Soon after, several swordsmen from the Jianghu were invited to the mansion. Among them, a famous swordsman, Leng Wuhen, was particularly eye-catching.

Leng Wuhen stood in the center of the martial arts training ground, his eyes sharp as lightning, scanning the surroundings, "Everyone, I am here to teach you some sword techniques, I hope you can learn with an open mind."

Under Leng Wuhen's careful guidance, the swordsmanship of the guards in the palace has been greatly improved. Du Yunsheng watched quietly on the side, his eyes filled with joy.

After finishing his martial arts training, Du Yunsheng bowed deeply to Leng Wuhen, "Senior Leng, thank you for your guidance today."

Leng Wuhen smiled calmly, "You are too modest, Princess. It is my honor to be able to contribute to the General's Mansion."

Afterwards, Jiang Shaohan walked to Du Yunsheng's side and said, "Yunsheng, go and take a rest. I will communicate with Senior Leng."

Du Yunsheng nodded, turned around and walked into her own courtyard. After returning, she gently put the book down, looked at the starry sky, and her mind was filled with thoughts.

"Yun Sheng, you're here." A cold voice sounded outside the door.

Du Yunsheng turned around and saw Leng Wuhen holding a long sword, the sword light streaking through the night sky like a meteor.

"Senior Leng, what advice do you have?" Du Yunsheng asked.

Leng Wuhen walked up to her, his eyes deep, "Princess, I have something to ask you."

Du Yunsheng thought for a moment and replied, "Senior, please feel free to speak."

"Do you know why I am willing to work for the General's Mansion today?" Leng Wuhen asked.

Du Yunsheng was silent for a moment, and said: "Maybe it's because we are all working for the same cause."

Leng Wuhen's eyes flashed with admiration, "That's right, we are all protecting this land and the people on this land. Yun Sheng, you are an extraordinary woman."

Du Yunsheng smiled lightly, "Senior, you are too kind. I am just doing my best."

As the night deepened, the two faced each other in silence, but their hearts were closely connected.
