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

Just as Shen Suian expected, after they left, the Second Prince ordered He Jingyao to be released.

Let the imperial physician treat his legs.

It’s just that because the injury has not been treated for too long, the dead flesh needs to be cut off before treatment can be started again.

He Jingyao experienced pain that was worse than death, and after losing half his life, he finally woke up.

Looking at his legs that were almost amputated, his hatred for Shen Sui'an reached its peak.

If he ever returned to the Southern Dynasty alive, he would repay that bitch Shen Sui'an a hundredfold or a thousandfold for everything he had suffered.

"Master He, I'm sorry for the suffering you have endured." The second prince said to He Jingyao who was lying on the bed with a sincere and regretful expression.

He Jingyao was tortured by the pain and became emaciated. He looked completely unrecognizable and no longer as dashing as before.

He stared at the Second Prince with a sinister look, feeling that the other party was now just the cat crying over the rat.

All these people in Yong Dynasty are just like Lu Yuan and his wife, none of them are good.

"I didn't know Shen Sui'an had you imprisoned in the Zhenfu Division. You know, Lu Yuan managed the Zhenfu Division like an iron barrel. It wasn't until recently that he had someone reorganize it that we knew that Master Xiao He was imprisoned and tortured."

He Jingyao didn't say anything, his eyes revealed a chilling coldness.

"Shen Sui'an has now gone to the Southern Dynasty. She will be the princess of your Southern Dynasty in the future. Lord Xiao He, don't worry, no one in Shangjing City will be able to lock you up anymore." said the second prince.

"You have no good intentions either." He Jingyao's voice was hoarse.

The second prince smiled and said, "No matter how bad my intentions are, I will still heal your wounds. The imperial physician said that if your legs are delayed for a few more days, they will have to be amputated, otherwise you will die."

He Jingyao looked at him expressionlessly.

"Take good care of your injuries. Your legs... are injured too badly. It will take time for them to heal quickly." said the second prince.

Hearing this, He Jingyao subconsciously reached out and touched his knees.

"When you can walk, I will have someone send you back to the Southern Dynasty. After all, our two countries now have an alliance." The second prince said with a smile.

He Jingyao was not stupid, he knew that the Second Prince must have a purpose in saving him.

"You are worried that Lu Yuan will pose a threat to you in the future, so you want me to go back to the Southern Dynasty to deal with him." He Jingyao asked sarcastically.

The second prince chuckled, "If I don't heal your wounds, will you stop dealing with them when you return to the Southern Dynasty?"

He Jingyao pursed his lips and said nothing. Indeed, when he returned to the Southern Dynasty, he would definitely find an opportunity to kill Shen Suian.

"Do you know how Lu Yuan became the commander of the Pacification Division?" the second prince asked slowly.

"His life in the Lu family was not easy at all. He was looked down upon by other members of the Lu family since he was a child. The first time I saw him, he was hiding in a corner, and his clothes were not even as good as those of ordinary children."

"Lu Chushen didn't even let him go to the clan school to study, and kept him like a slave."

"But even so, he was able to join the army at the age of thirteen and became General Xiao's apprentice. You only know that he is the commander of the Pacification Division, but you don't know that he has been on the battlefield."

"I have been trying to win him over for so many years, intending to use him in the future. I never expected that he would actually be a prince of the Southern Dynasty."

"Master Xiao He, even if I save you now, you may not be able to defeat Lu Yuan when you return to the Southern Dynasty in the future."

"You all underestimate him." The second prince sighed.

"Have a good rest, Master Xiao He. If you need anything, please tell the servants."

……

Southern Dynasty.

Since its establishment, the Zhenfu Division has become the focus of attention of various noble families in the capital city.

Seeing that all those who went to seek jobs were playboys and there was no useful person at all, He Zhiyuan's mood, which had been gloomy for a long time, finally improved a little.

"Master He, this Pacification Bureau may not be able to accomplish anything. Today, the Prince of Chen accepted all the dozen or so playboys who signed up, including the youngest son of the Marquis of Dongbo, the playboy who kept courtesans in the brothel all day long. He was also imprisoned."

"What can he do? Go to the Flower Tower of the Zhenfu Division?"

He Zhiyuan frowned, "Did the Prince of Chen accept the dude who signed up?"

"Yes, sir, the few promising men we have chosen all look down upon the Pacification Division."

"Send two available ones to the Second Prince. Prince Chen can't support the Pacification Office, so give the Pacification Office to the Second Prince." He Zhiyuan said calmly.

"Your Highness has people you can use."

"Let Qi Zhongbei go to the Pacification Office and let him stay with the Second Prince." He Zhiyuan said.

The Empress and the Crown Prince wanted to establish the Pacification Office. It would be a joke if the Prince of Chen couldn't support it.

"Yes, my lord."

"Where is the envoy to Yong Dynasty?" He Zhiyuan asked.

"This..." Several staff members looked at each other.

After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Our people followed them halfway, but... they lost them."

He Zhiyuan snorted coldly, he knew Ruan Danyang would use this trick.

"Have you found the person we asked you to look for?" He Zhiyuan asked.

"Found him. He is now in the capital. My Lord, when are you going to send the surprise to the King?"

A sinister gleam flashed in He Zhiyuan's eyes. "Stay outside the city. When you see the princess' sedan chair appear, send them to Prince Chen."

"Let everyone see Fu Jinyuan's true face in public."

"Your Excellency is still wise."

Time flies. After Fu Jinyuan recruited forty idle playboys and ruffians in the royal capital, he began to recruit talents outside the royal capital.

What can a playboy achieve?

Just wait and see the joke.

When Emperor Fu heard about this, he went to Kunning Palace to find Queen Ruan.

"After all, the Southern Dynasty is different from the Yong Dynasty. I feel that Prince Chen is still not qualified to be the commander. How about picking someone new?"

Queen Ruan was really annoyed by the emperor's gloating expression.

Although he tried to restrain himself, she could tell what he was doing at a glance.

"The emperor's decree cannot be changed every day. It's only been a few days and you think he can't do a good job." Queen Ruan said indifferently.

Emperor Fu smiled and said, "That's not what I meant. It's just that, Queen, you should go and see what kind of people he has chosen. Prince Chen may be good at martial arts, but he still needs more experience in judging people."

Queen Ruan really wanted to smear the teacup in her hand on the emperor's face.

"Yu'er has done a good job. He has several capable people under his command, both civil and military." Emperor Fu said with a smile.

"The Second Prince's men were arranged by Your Majesty, right? Your Majesty, do you think I should also arrange some men for Prince Chen?" Queen Ruan said expressionlessly.

Emperor Fu: "We agreed to let Prince Chen complete the establishment of the Pacification Bureau independently. Queen, you can't interfere."

If the Queen intervenes, will the Pacification Office still listen to him in the future?

Queen Ruan rolled her eyes rudely.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the envoy to the Southern Dynasty has returned." Qingli walked in and reported respectfully.

Her daughter-in-law is back!

Queen Ruan finally showed a happy smile on her face.
