The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 498 Liang Yue Invades, Border in Crisis

She clearly turned the Fifth Prince's residence upside down, yet she kept claiming to be the victim.

Even knowing that Yu Tingwan was speaking to the common people.

The girl had clearly drunk some wine during the meal. She was sober, but her face was slightly flushed, and her voice carried an unconscious coquettishness.

She spread her hands with an innocent face.

"I'm just putting on a brave face."

How could Gu Fuju not be happy?
He could even imagine how young Yao Yao would jump up and slap someone, and then cry and say her hand hurt.

She clearly toned it down a lot.

But that same drive is still there.

Gu Fuju could hardly imagine that one day, the girl would be able to say something coquettish in front of her.

"Father, I'm so wronged."

He suffered from insomnia for many days.

Emperor Yingqian was naturally unaware of his thoughts.

He picked up the medicine that the shadowy figure had brought him.

The medicine is very bitter.

The bitterness in the air seemed to reach the very top of one's head.

It was opened by Mr. Ge.

Emperor Qian thought the effect was not very obvious, but Zheng Xu of the Imperial Hospital and other imperial physicians praised his prescription.

"That Yu family member is impulsive and loves to join in the fun. Although she has a high status, she is still just a commoner. It is not surprising that she likes to be surrounded by people and enjoys listening to all kinds of flattery."

Others would be eager to have her backed by the Duke of Shun's mansion and the Grand Tutor's mansion. Countless people would be eager to befriend her.

Anyone with a brain would have smiled and gone over to do the bookkeeping together, thanking them politely and generously.

"The fifth son's wife was only concerned with immediate gains and couldn't distinguish between what was important and what was not. She got herself into trouble and became the laughing stock of the entire capital."

"The second son's wife used this opportunity to get in touch with Madam Yu. She didn't care about the past, but the fifth son's wife always had the upper hand and was even smug about it, really thinking that the second son's wife wasn't capable of outmaneuvering her?"

Emperor Yingqian believed his analysis was very accurate.

He knew that there was no affection between Yao Ru and Ying Zhi as husband and wife.

But since they already have children, they have to compromise and make plans for their children's sake.

Not to mention that's what he thinks, Ying Zhi thinks the same way.

When Yao Ru returned to his residence, he personally stood at the door to greet him, a stark contrast to his previous gloomy demeanor.

"It seems you've taken my advice to heart."

Ying Zhi: "I am very satisfied with what happened today."

Although it was somewhat radical, it suited his taste perfectly.

After all... the news will soon reach the capital.

Yao Ru gave him a cold glance.

"ill?"

"You think I did this for you?"

She was trying to get Ying Zhi and Ying Yin to fight faster.

"Do you have to talk to me so rudely?"

Yao Ru brushed past him, her voice laced with disgust: "To put it bluntly, I'm afraid the Second Prince will be presumptuous and think I'm giving in to you."

After this incident.

The Fifth Prince's reputation was further tarnished.

After the Fifth Princess woke up, she was slapped by the Fifth Prince and scolded for her poor performance!

The Fifth Princess swallowed her anger and dared not delay any longer, so she hurriedly exchanged all her money for silver notes to buy grain.

"Mother!"

The old woman who had gone to the pawnshop returned in a hurry, looking flustered and at a loss.

"The largest pawnshop in the capital said that the General's wife had already withdrawn all the money she could from her account by pawning jewelry and precious stones."

After all, the jewelry given by the ladies of noble families is not cheap.

The other small pawnshops, however, had the money in their accounts.

Even if you're stuffed, you can only eat one or two pieces.

They couldn't even eat.

The Fifth Prince's wife felt dizzy and her vision went black again.

She pressed down hard on her philtrum.

"Then why don't we go to the money shop to pawn our loan first? With my name on the line, the money shop can't possibly refuse to give us face."

The old woman was in a dilemma.

“These days, many merchants have withdrawn money from banks. The court has forbidden grain prices from rising, but in order to make a fortune, merchants have purchased a lot of necessities and hoarded them like mountains, intending to sell them to the disaster area after the disaster is over.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the Fifth Princess's expression.

"Some depositors, mindful of potential risks, have been withdrawing their funds in large numbers."

"Multiple floods damaged several of the money shop's branch warehouses, resulting in heavy losses. The money shop was barely able to save itself, how could it possibly..."

In short, it all boils down to one word: no money. The Fifth Princess was so anxious that blisters appeared on her lips, but she had her family and the Fifth Prince to help her, and after much effort, she finally managed to gather the necessary supplies.

But the Fifth Princess Consort couldn't laugh.

The crickets still chirp among the people.

"It turns out she was still effective. It's clear she was just putting on an act before, trying to act like a living saint."

Yu Tingwan was also very efficient.

Although the main purpose was to disgust people and make the irreconcilable differences between Ying Yin and Ying Zhi public.

She was in charge of many wealthy ladies and the projects were extensive.

Truckloads of grain were transported to various places.

The capital city was short of grain, so people were arranged to transfer supplies from the nearest city.

After she finished making the final arrangements, she had dinner with Ning Suchan in the main courtyard.

"Has Guizhi not returned for several days?"

Yu Tingwan calculated: "Five days."

"Do you know where he went?"

Yu Tingwan: "I didn't ask."

Yu Tingwan: "It's not like I'm looking for prostitutes."

“He’s busy with his own affairs. Knowing that his mother and wife are waiting for him to return home, he will not put himself in danger. Even if he has to do something dangerous, it’s something he has to do. All I can do is do my job well, be filial to my mother-in-law, and take good care of the household so that he has no worries while he’s away.”

It remains as clear and transparent as ever.

next moment.

The filial girl looked at Ning Suchan

"Mother-in-law."

Yu Tingwan: "Is there anything you need from me?"

Ning Suchan: ? ? ?

Yu Tingwan earnestly tried to flatter herself: "My talent is really too pathetic."

She didn't realize how strong she was until she actually did it.

Ning Suchan: ...

After Wei Zhao left, Yu Tingwan stayed in the room next to Ning Suchan in the main courtyard for the time being.

Once night falls, the Wei family army that remains, along with the people left for Ning Suchan by the Duke of Shun, will guard the main courtyard so tightly that not even a mosquito can get in.

As darkness fell, the two returned to their respective dorm rooms and went to sleep.

Ning Suchan is a light sleeper; she will wake up at the slightest noise outside.

She didn't know what time it was, but she woke up when she heard footsteps.

Ning Suchan opened the window and saw someone groping their way to the next room in the dark.

The courtyard was quiet, and no one was secretly protecting them. This suggested who had come.

Wei Zhao paused, then changed direction and strode over.

"Mother."

The sky was too dark for Ning Suchan to see his face clearly: "Are you injured?"

"Never."

Ning Suchan: "I'll have the kitchen prepare some food for you."

"My son has already eaten."

Ning Suchan was relieved.

"Then you should go back and rest too. Don't bother her. She's been busy these past few days and has already gone to sleep. There's no need to take her back."

Wei Zhao remained silent.

Ning Suchan: ...

What could she say?
She waved her hand dismissively and closed the window.

Before anyone could lie down on the couch, they heard a very soft creak.

Wei Zhao went into the next room.

Yu Tingwan was fast asleep when she was vaguely held in someone's arms.

Without even opening her eyes, she deftly reached inside the man's clothes and slipped her hand up to his chest, where she found the scar left by the Broken Cloud Spear.

Ok.

He's not a random man.

He's my man.

Yu Ting went back to sleep peacefully.

The urgent report arrived just as dawn was breaking.

As the fifth watch gong sounded, a black horse broke through the thin mist of the long street. The rider's armor was stained with blood as he shouted, "Urgent dispatch from the border! Make way!"

"Liang Yue has invaded; the border is in dire need of attention!"

I've been experiencing writer's block lately, so please don't wait for updates on time; check back when you wake up!
