Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband

Men are hard to change their nature, and sooner or later they will reveal their true colors. If she takes the initiative, Prince Duan will be grateful for her kindness. After all, with power and wealth in hand, what else matters?

It’s just… I originally thought Zheng Dinglian would be different from others, but now it seems that most men in the world are like this.

When Zheng Dinglian heard the report from Lou Wei, he was sitting in a wheelchair, holding a carving knife in his hand, concentrating on carving something on the wood. Although his hands were able to move freely these days, they were still a little weak and no longer as dexterous as before. In a moment, there were several bloodstains on his hands.

When Lou Wei came back, he happened to see Zheng Dinglian sitting by the window, staring intently at the work in his hands.

"Master! Why is your hand injured so badly? Put it down quickly, and let me treat the wound for you!" Lou Wei exclaimed and hurried forward, trying to snatch the carving knife from Zheng Dinglian.

Zheng Dinglian cleverly avoided Lou Wei, just raised his eyelids slightly and said calmly: "Has the thing been handed over to the princess?"

"It's all handed over, Master..."

"It's okay. My hands are not very good at this, so it's good to practice a little."

Zheng Dinglian spoke gently, but a trace of loss and melancholy flashed in his eyes. He was once the god of war, omnipotent on the battlefield, but now he can't even do a small carving so awkwardly.

Zheng Dinglian pursed his lips tightly, and then asked Lou Wei: "Is there any news from the Ministry of Justice?"

Although Lou Wei felt sorry for Zheng Dinglian, he knew Zheng Dinglian's character very well. He was not the kind of person who could be easily influenced by others. He could only sigh helplessly and replied, "Yao Fenglin and Yao Chen have been handed over to the Ministry of Justice. Yao Fenglin has already confessed everything about the purchase of the Acacia Heartbreak Powder. In order to save Yao Chen, he is even willing to directly testify against Yao."

However, in this intricate puzzle, one thing seems quite strange...

"What exactly happened?"

The carving knife in Zheng Dinglian's hand suddenly paused. He raised his head and his eyes fell on Lou Wei's face with penetrating eyes.

Lou Wei pursed his lips gently, and then slowly said: "In the past, the princess' mother was unfortunately poisoned, and her illness lasted for a long time. According to common sense, the doctors who examined her pulse should have known her physical condition, but strangely, no one warned her about this."

"Those doctors have been silenced, but Yao Fenglin refused to admit that they were responsible until his death. I suspect that there may be other accomplices behind the Yao family."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Dinglian leaned gently on the back of the wheelchair, his eyes as deep as a phoenix's eyes focused in deep thought.

The Yao family is the only supporter of the Yao family. If they wanted to step into the door of the Marquis' Mansion back then, they could only rely on the Yao family.

Although the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion has declined, even in decline, its heritage is far beyond the reach of merchants like the Yao family.

If the Yao family wants to keep their business going for a long time, they must find a prominent family as their backer.

Among the many nobles, the Yao family might be difficult to get close to, but the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion was the most suitable choice.

Therefore, they will definitely clear all obstacles for the Yao family.

From this perspective, the claim that there may be other forces involved in the Yao family does not seem to be true.

Zheng Dinglian seemed to have some understanding in his heart, but he felt that this understanding was quite vague.

Since he couldn't figure it out, Zheng Dinglian stopped asking. He was silent for a moment and then asked, "When will the people sent to welcome Jinlan return?"

"We should be able to arrive tonight."

"As soon as Jinlan arrives, send her to the princess's residence. The princess should be the first to know some news."

"As ordered!"

Night falls.

Zheng Dinglian was already sitting in a wheelchair. He watched Gu Qinlan finish acupuncture and massage for him, then he slowly spoke:

"Thank you for everything you have done for Xu Yunxuan."

Gu Qinlan packed up her acupuncture kit and said with a smile, "This is my duty, it's nothing to worry about."

Zheng Dinglian felt a little warm in his heart, and then he picked up an exquisite wooden box from the side, handed it to Gu Qinlan, and said gently:

"This is for you."

Gu Qinlan was slightly stunned, but did not refuse. After taking it, she immediately opened the wooden box. Suddenly, her eyes lit up.

There was a small and exquisite sleeve arrow lying in the wooden box.

Gu Qinlan picked up the sleeve arrow and saw a line of small words engraved on the arrow: "Qinlan came in before night, and the white dew of autumn appeared first."

She was slightly stunned and a hint of surprise surged in her heart. Her name came from this. Zheng Dinglian actually knew it?

Gu Qinlan looked up at Zheng Dinglian in surprise and asked, "Is this... made by you?"

Zheng Dinglian saw the joy flashing in Gu Qinlan's eyes, and he breathed a sigh of relief, then explained:

"I saw your archery skills were very good the other day, but the bow was too inconvenient after all. If you were in danger, I'm afraid it would not be able to protect you, so I wanted to make a lightweight sleeve arrow for you."

After a brief pause, Zheng Dinglian waved to Gu Qinlan again. Gu Qinlan sat down on the chair beside him and handed the sleeve arrow to Zheng Dinglian.

Zheng Dinglian picked up the sleeve arrow and explained with gestures:

"Women have less strength, so I have specially improved the hidden arrows so that they can kill people without much effort."

"In addition, a tiny mechanism is designed here to release poisonous smoke in case of emergency."

"Also, this arrow has its own unique features. There are ten arrows in total, and three of them have fine needles on their tips. If you encounter an opponent with strong martial arts skills, you can use a combination of real and fake tactics to distract the opponent and make him underestimate you."

In this world, who could have expected that inside the seemingly ordinary little arrow, there are actually countless tiny steel needles hidden, making it impossible to guard against!

Once the opponent is careless, those fine needles hidden in the arrows will play their mysterious role, and even a master with special skills may fall into their trap!

At this point, Zheng Dinglian seemed to suddenly remember something important, and proposed to Gu Qinlan with a serious expression:

"Since you are proficient in medicine, you must have some knowledge of toxicology. Why don't you develop some poison and apply it to those poison needles to ensure that they are invulnerable."

After listening to Zheng Dinglian's advice, Gu Qinlan felt confused.

She really didn't expect that Zheng Dinglian would spare no effort to design such an ingenious weapon for her!

Moreover, he was extremely thoughtful, and every detail fit together perfectly, raising the safety factor to the extreme. His level of attentiveness was amazing.

Just like how he quietly sought the title of princess for her, and how he secretly sent guards to protect her, and just like the current situation...

It really makes people sigh that a god of war who is so brave and fearless on the battlefield also has such a gentle and delicate mind.

Compared to Zheng Dinglian's wholehearted devotion to her, Gu Qinlan felt a little inferior.

Her attitude towards Zheng Dinglian was simply fulfilling a sense of responsibility and mission.

It seemed that in Gu Qinlan's eyes, the relationship between Zheng Dinglian and her was merely that of a superior and a subordinate.

She was willing to save Zheng Dinglian from danger, willing to give him advice, and willing to help him take concubines and raise children. For her, these were all driven by a sense of mission.
