Who would raise a villain as a wife?

The team was prepared when they entered the canyon, and with He Yunjing's timely intervention, the casualties were not serious.

Wu Ziqian sorted out everything before coming back to find He Yunjing. Seeing that He Yunjing was in a dishevel and his cheeks were almost cracked by the cold wind, Wu Ziqian felt mixed emotions.

"Why did you run out? Aren't you still under house arrest?"

He Yunjing unhooked his weapon and hung it back on his waist. "I heard that my cousin was escorting them, so I was worried that someone might cause trouble, so I followed him to take a look."

Wu Ziqian didn't expect these people to be so bold that they even wanted to intercept the disaster relief money. They must be coming for him.

Wu Ziqian patted his shoulder and said earnestly, "Yun Jing has grown up."

He Yunjing smiled awkwardly. What do you mean by growing up? He just became a different person.

The two men talked for a while, and the soldiers had already moved the big rock at the exit. The team continued to move forward without stopping. He Yunjing also disguised himself as a soldier to accompany them, and he had to send them there no matter what.

Later they encountered an assassination attempt, which was quite dangerous. He Yunjing was stabbed, but he dodged it quickly and was not hurt in vital areas.

Wu Ziqian was even more delighted after seeing He Yunjing's skills with his own eyes. He praised him for having the spirit of a military general and said that the Marquis' Mansion would have a successor.

He Yunjing didn't say anything. After all, he had experience in several worlds, so he accepted it well.

From riding horses to riding carts, the group arrived in Huai'an and began to provide relief to the victims and comfort the people.

He Yunjing didn't stay for too long. After his injuries were almost healed, he said goodbye to Wu Ziqian. He had to go back and apologize as soon as possible, otherwise it would be misinterpreted if someone else told him about it.

Wu Ziqian naturally knew about it, so he sent a secret guard to follow and wrote a letter for He Yunjing to take back with him.

He Yunjing rode straight to the palace to meet the emperor. When the emperor saw He Yunjing like this, he stepped back and said, "What did you do, kid, to stink like this?"

"Does it stink?" He Yunjing raised his arm and sniffed it. It was indeed sour and stinky. He said, "We had a fight and had no place to take a shower, so we are holding the stink."

The emperor glared at him, slammed the table and angrily said, "I didn't say you were under house arrest, how dare you disobey my order!"

"I was wrong." He Yunjing admitted his mistake quickly, knelt down quickly, covered his shoulders and hissed.

The emperor lost all his temper when he saw this. He immediately asked if he was injured and shouted for the imperial physician to see him.

He Yunjing stopped him. He was still under house arrest. If the news got out, he would be disobeying the emperor's order. He said a few words to the emperor. He admitted that he wanted to go out with Wu Ziqian to have some fun, but he didn't expect to encounter an assassin. However, he did a good deed, so he asked the emperor not to punish him and atone for his sins.

The emperor also read Wu Ziqian's letter and knew that He Yunjing had indeed made great contributions this time. Not only should he not be punished, but he should be rewarded.

However, He Yunjing's reputation must not be told to others. He was still hoping that He Yunjing could hide his edge and catch those people off guard.

The emperor stuffed some medicine into He Yunjing's pocket and told him to go back and wash up quickly, as he was really going to die of stink.

He Yunjing accepted them all, threw the bag over his shoulder and ran away. He had to go back to see Jiang Li and trick him into giving him a bath and bandaging his wounds.

He Yunjing quietly returned to the mansion. As soon as he opened the window, he heard a noise from inside. He Yunjing quickly said, "It's me."

The noise in the room died down, and after a pause a candle was lit. He Yunjing also climbed in, but before he got close he saw Jiang Li covering her mouth and nose and backing away.

He Yunjing raised his eyebrows, "It's still cold, am I that bad?"

Jiang Li nodded. It was really rotten, sour and smelly.

He Yunjing was speechless. "Try to get some water in. I'm injured and I can't let anyone in the mansion know."

"Not well yet?" Jiang Li blurted out subconsciously, and then felt regretful after saying it. Isn't he admitting his guilt?

He Yunjing also laughed and explained, "It broke apart again after running all the way back."

Jiang Li hummed, put on her clothes and went outside, saying that it was a cold night and she wanted to take a bath to get rid of the cold.

Everyone in the courtyard was arranged by Marquis Wu'an. They were wounded soldiers who had retired from the army. They were skilled and would definitely obey orders.

He Yunjing had said before that he would meet Jiang Li's request, so naturally he would agree to boil some water.

Soon the hot water was delivered. He Yunjing took off his clothes and went in. He called out to Jiang Li outside the screen, "Come and help."

Jiang Li didn't doubt anything. She got up and walked in. She saw the knife wound on the back of He Yunjing's shoulder at a glance. It was indeed cracked and looked somewhat hideous.

He Yunjing took a towel and wiped his body, "Rub my back for me, and my hair, it's a mess, and I can't lift my arms."

Jiang Li was confused. Giving He Yunjing a bath, was she treating him as a servant or something?

He walked over and picked up another towel and rubbed He Yunjing's back, a little unhappy, "Aren't you afraid that I will do something?"

"What? Slash me again? It's not impossible. It just makes sense." He Yunjing looked indifferent. The original body had done so many evil things to Jiang Li. Even if it wasn't him, Jiang Li would not feel comfortable unless this thorn was removed.

As he thought this, he stood up from the water and reached out to take the dagger from the shelf.

Jiang Li was startled. When she came to her senses, He Yunjing had already sat back down. He handed the dagger to him and said, "Go ahead. You can just cut along the wound again."

Jiang Li held the dagger without moving. He was becoming more and more confused about He Yunjing. Why did he bring him to Wu'an Marquis Mansion? He knew that what he did would be detrimental to the Wu Kingdom, but not only did he not expose him, but he also turned his back to him.

Aren't you really afraid that he will become overwhelmed with hatred and kill him with one knife?

He Yunjing waited for a while and saw that he didn't move, so he turned around and said to him, "If you kill me, you can't get out. This is a very simple problem. But I do owe you. There is also a treaty between two countries at war. They don't kill civilians or humiliate prisoners. I shouldn't have done those things to you. I said before that I apologized to you for more than just a few words."

He Yunjing raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Li, "I will take full responsibility for the mistakes I made. As for the favoritism of the Marquis' Mansion and the Prince, it is the guilt of parents towards their son, and it is also the debt of the royal family to the Marquis' Mansion.

My father guarded the border for ten years, and was ordered to return to the capital after the war with Lin State. My mother has been with my father at the border. They are indebted to me, so they indulge me like this. The prince and I are cousins, and my parents were unable to teach me because they were protecting the country, so they were partial to me.

I hope you won't implicate them. I know you feel bad about it, but they are my closest relatives and they really protect me. I hope you can show some mercy and only retaliate against me."

Jiang Li held the dagger in his hand and said nothing. He did hate He Yunjing, but it was not just hatred for what the Marquis' Mansion and Wu Ziqian had done. It was also a game between the two countries. He could not agree to He Yunjing.

Seeing him silent, He Yunjing continued, "I know you have your own mission in Wu State. This is the grudge between the two countries. I just need you to put aside the personal grudge. As for what you should do, just do it. I will use my own way to protect them. This is not a conflict."
