If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Guangning cursed a lot, but when he returned to the Lu family, he still wrote the rules honestly.

She was afraid that her title and fiefdom would really be revoked.

Shen Sui'an returned to Danboyuan and breathed a sigh of relief. Going to the palace really felt like it cost him half his life.

He also brought back a jade pendant that was as hot as a potato.

Saying that she can restrain Guangning means that she is tying her and Guangning together.

Concubine Yao’s methods are really clever.

Old Madam Lu and Mrs. Lu both sent people to ask Shen Sui'an if the Imperial Concubine had any instructions.

Shen Suian handled the situation with ease.

It was even more impossible for them to go to Princess Guangning to ask, so they could only guess behind her back, and they felt that Shen Suian was too ungrateful and frivolous.

"Madam, this was sent by Qingluo." Banjian came in carrying a food box.

Shen Sui'an's eyes moved slightly, and he asked all the servants in the room to leave, leaving only half of them.

The food box was filled with Shen Sui'an's favorite pastries.

She took out one of the mung bean cakes and found a note hidden inside.

It's done.

Shen Sui'an threw the note into the incense burner next to him, and light smoke rose up, destroying all traces.

With her current status, she couldn't remind Xie Changyu in person to let him be careful against traitors in Xie's army. Later, she thought that instead of hesitating like this, it would be better to be straightforward and have someone pass the news to her directly.

She asked Qingluo to find someone to carefully follow Xie Changyu, and then hide the news directly in the pastries he often ate. After he saw it, even if he would become suspicious, at least he would know what was going on.

"What are you thinking about?" A deep and pleasant voice sounded beside him.

When Shen Sui'an came to her senses, she found that Lu Yuan had come back at some point and was looking at her leisurely.

"Husband, you're back." Shen Suian stood up quickly, thinking that it was a good thing that the note burned quickly.

Lu Yuan: "It's almost the New Year, and there's not much to do in the company, so I'll come back early to accompany my wife."

"Have you had your meal? I'll ask someone to prepare some food for you." Shen Sui'an asked.

"No need to bother, I've used it." Lu Yuan pushed her back to sit, "Have you entered the palace today?"

Shen Suian knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she told him that Concubine Yao asked her to restrain Guangning.

"I guess the Imperial Concubine did this because of you," Shen Sui'an said.

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Tell me about it."

"Imperial Concubine Yao has always wanted to win you over. This time, the Censorate impeached Guangning. She must have guessed that you were involved. She didn't want to break up with you, and she wanted you to be used by the Second Prince, so she came up with this idea to tie Guangning and me together."

"She is such a smart woman. She can put down her pride and let me, a little-known person, discipline and teach Guangning." Shen Suian analyzed seriously.

Lu Yuan chuckled, "You don't have to take it too seriously. Guangning is just like that. It doesn't matter how you teach him. Also, you have too little confidence in yourself. You are very good. Concubine Yao may not be trying to win you over because of me. She appreciates you."

Shen Suian chuckled when she heard this. So she was so outstanding in Lu Yuan's mind?

"Are you going to take a day off tomorrow?" Shen Suian asked with a smile.

"Yes, but the Prince of Zhennan will arrive in Shangjing tomorrow. I will meet him outside the city and escort him to the palace." Lu Yuan said, "What's the matter? Is there anything tomorrow?"

King of Zhennan?

Shen Sui'an looked dazed for a moment, and she remembered that Prince Zhennan did return to the capital this year.

And another big thing happened, which was more or less related to her.

After the Lantern Festival in the new year, the most beloved youngest son of Prince Zhennan will be kidnapped. He is the son of Concubine Bai in Prince Zhennan's mansion.

By chance, Shen Suian found the child.

The Prince of Zhennan later found out that it was the princess and the eldest daughter who abducted his youngest son. The Queen Mother was furious and asked the Prince of Zhennan to divorce his wife, but the Prince of Zhennan still saved the princess and the eldest daughter.

But from then on, the princess and her two children never appeared in public again.

The only legitimate son of Prince Zhennan was a blind man, and the princess was injured and could no longer get pregnant, so he had no choice but to marry Bai as his concubine, who gave birth to a smart and clever little son.

Concubine Bai is Mrs. Lu's younger sister.

In the previous life, Mrs. Lu was kind to Shen Sui'an for a few days because she saved Concubine Bai's son.

As for the reward she received for this incident, Shen Sui'an now only feels annoyed when thinking about it.

She would never be involved in this matter again in her life.

Anyway, even if Concubine Bai’s son hadn’t met her, he would have returned safe and sound.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Shen Suian daydreaming again, Lu Yuan reached out and touched her face.

Shen Sui'an came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head, "I have heard of the reputation of the King of Zhennan for a long time, and I am a little surprised to hear it suddenly."

Lu Yuan's eyes were slightly cold: "Perhaps in a few days, his concubine Bai will bring her son and invite the first wife to the Zhennan Palace."

"Didn't the princess and her child come to the capital together?" Shen Suian asked in a low voice.

In fact, she knew that this time the Prince of Zhennan only brought Concubine Bai and three children. The eldest daughter and the eldest son had no presence in Shangjing. Everyone was praising Concubine Bai and the second young master who was about to be canonized as the crown prince.

"The princess stayed in Yunzhou." Lu Yuan said.

Shen Sui'an uttered a soft "oh". Thinking of the fate of the princess and her children in the previous life, Shen Sui'an felt sad and uncomfortable in his heart.

"Sui Sui." Lu Yuan suddenly called her in a low voice.

"Hmm?" She raised her head and met his dark eyes.

Lu Yuan opened his palm, and a small note appeared in front of Shen Sui'an.

The handwriting is unfamiliar, but the content is familiar.

"..." Shen Suian's eyes widened.

Isn't this the little note she asked someone to pass the message to Xie Changyu?

How could it be in Lu Yuan's hands?

Could it be that Lu Yuan is so powerful that he is watching everything she does outside?

Shen Sui'an's thoughts were in a constant state of flux, and his face had a blank expression.

"Xie Changyu gave it to me." Lu Yuan didn't let Shen Suian think about it for too long and directly explained the source of the note.

"Ah?" Shen Sui'an was still confused. Why did Xie Changyu give this to Lu Yuan?

Aren't they enemies who are extremely jealous of each other when they meet?

Lu Yuan lowered his voice, "Can you tell me first why you wrote these messages to Xie Changyu, and how did you know there was a traitor in the Tieling Army?"

"If I say I dreamt about it, would you believe me?" Shen Suian said in a low voice.

She now had no time to think about the truth about the relationship between Xie Changyu and Lu Yuan.

First of all, I have to deal with the contents of the note.

Otherwise, she would be the one who was regarded as a traitor or a monster.

Lu Yuan frowned and thought, "Then tell me in detail, what is your dream like?"

Shen Sui'an's tension was calmed by his calm and gentle voice. Didn't he have the slightest intention of questioning her angrily?

"I dreamed that the father and son of the Xie family all died on the battlefield. They were framed by a traitor in the army. They were lured to Tieling and ambushed and killed..." Shen Sui'an's voice was hoarse.

"The dream was too real. I was afraid. My grandfather treated Xie Changyu as his nephew, and I also treated him as my brother. But if I say these words to his face, he will definitely not believe it. I can't think of any other way, so this is the only way..." Shen Sui'an's face turned red.

It's a stupid method indeed.

"There will be no dreams without reason. Maybe we should take precautions before they happen." Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.

Shen Sui'an looked at him in surprise, "Do you believe what I said?"
