Chapter 198 Thinking of Cheng Lang
At the end of the year, the old lady of Zhennan Marquis passed away, and Su Yuan took charge of the funeral.
Marquis of Zhennan, Gu Zhiquan, showed up in a wheelchair and did not look very well.
However, no one said much. Ever since the Marquis of Zhennan was injured, he had completely stopped caring about anything and had been hiding in his mansion to recuperate.
Everyone has become accustomed to the fact that only the mistress is in charge of the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.
After the funeral, it is the New Year.
After all, it was an elder who passed away, and the Zhennan Marquis Mansion was deserted this year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Su Yuan held Gu Ruchu in her arms and had dinner with Gu Yu.
"Yu'er, mother wants to confess something to you. If I hadn't drugged Zhou, she would probably have lived for a few more years. Yu'er, do you think mother is cruel and ruthless?" Su Yuan asked Gu Yu tentatively.
Gu Yu thought about it and shook his head, "Mom is not a cruel person. Anyone who can make Mom take action against him must not be a good person.
Yu'er doesn't think her mother is wrong."
In the entire Zhennan Marquis Mansion, the people he cared about most were only his mother and sister. As for Gu Zhiquan and his mother... they had never treated him as their own child or grandson.
He wouldn't be so ungrateful as to side with outsiders and hurt his mother's feelings.
Su Yuan's face was full of relief, he was indeed her good eldest son.
She likes Gu Yu too much.
If Gu Yu hadn't grown up into a little boy, she really wanted to kiss him.
It’s a pity that Gu Yu is fourteen years old now, and it’s time to avoid suspicion.
"As long as Yu'er doesn't blame his mother." Su Yuan smiled with relief.
After lunch, Su Yuan held her daughter and went back to the room with Gu Yu to talk.
Cheng Liang has not been in Kyoto recently. He went to Dongcheng.
Sima Gong passed away, and His Majesty was unwell, so they in Dongyu were still affected.
It is estimated that someone will be ready to invade Dongyu.
The prince sent Cheng Lang to Dongying to mobilize troops to go to Nancheng to quell the rebellion in Nancheng.
Looking at Su Yuan who was worried, Gu Yu asked with concern, "Mom! Are you worried about my adoptive father? Don't worry, my adoptive father is very capable, he will be fine."
Changing the crown prince is beneficial to Dongyu.
The imperial court's foundation is still there, and neither Nanyu nor Xiyou dares to act rashly.
At most, they are just making small moves and trying to gain some advantage.
But Dong Yu is not easy to bully. They have so many capable and battle-hardened soldiers. They have been recuperating in the past few years and they won't get any advantage.
He believed that Cheng Lang would come back safely!
Su Yuan pursed her lips and smiled, "Mom knows, Mom is just... Mom is fine."
She was indeed a little worried about Cheng Lang, but she also believed in Cheng Lang's ability and believed that he would return safely.
She was just a little uncomfortable. When Cheng Liang was in Kyoto, he would come to accompany her every few days.
Once a person gets used to having someone by his side, he no longer wants to be alone.
Gu Yu was a little worried about Su Yuan, but he had no choice. Apart from comforting his mother, he could not change anything.
My adoptive father went to Nancheng at the order of the Crown Prince and His Majesty. How could they interfere?
I can only wait for good news from my adoptive father in Kyoto.
"Okay! Mom is really fine! I'm just a little bit uncomfortable." Su Yuan explained.
Gu Yu pondered for a moment, then said, "Mother! I heard from the Crown Prince that the Prince intends to have Father-in-Law garrison East City and train troops in East Camp. Will Mother go with Father-in-Law then?"
When the prince ascends the throne, he will send his adoptive father to garrison in Dongcheng and will not detain him in Kyoto.
What should my mother do then?
The two of them are separated, and my mother will feel even more uncomfortable, and she might even become sick from missing me.
Especially my adoptive father, he would be even more reluctant to let me go.
Besides him, my mother also has my younger sister, but in my adoptive father's heart, my mother is probably the most important.
In the past, my adoptive father might have wanted to return to East City, but now...
He probably doesn't want to.
Su Yuan was slightly startled. "Yu'er, did the prince tell you this? How did he know?"
"The Crown Prince has looked for the Crown Prince. He said that once the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will let the Crown Prince reunite with Prince Jin. He suggested that the adoptive father return to East City." Gu Yu explained.
Su Yuan pondered for a moment and thought that even Cheng Lang probably didn't know about these things.
But when Cheng Liang goes to Dongcheng, should she accompany him?
In what capacity did she accompany Cheng Lang?
She is not the wife of Duke Li, she is the wife of Marquis Zhennan.
Nameless and without status...
Not bad!
By then, she could be a traveling doctor saving lives and wouldn't have to take care of the affairs of the mansion. She would be so happy.
While Cheng Liang was training his soldiers, she took her daughter to travel and practice medicine to benefit the local people.
only……
Will Gu Yu want to join them then?
Gu Yu is already fourteen this year! In a year or two, he will be an adult.
He probably wanted to stay in Kyoto and serve as an official in the court.
"Mom may take Chuchu out for a trip. Yu'er, what about you? Do you want to join us then?" Su Yuan asked back.
Gu Yu thought about it seriously and shook his head gently, "Mom! I'm already grown up. I want to take the imperial examination and stay in Kyoto. I won't follow you to East City anymore.
When you have enough fun, you can go back to Kyoto to be with your child."
Su Yuan nodded and smiled, "Okay! Whatever Yu'er wants to do, mother will support him!"
In early March, Cheng Lang returned to Beijing.
He arrived in Kyoto earlier than the team. He did not enter the palace, nor did he return to Duke Li's Mansion. Instead, he secretly came to the Mansion of Marquis Zhennan.
"You've traveled for such a long time, why don't you go back home to rest, but come to me?" Su Yuan scolded.
However, she was still happy to see that Cheng Lang was safe and sound.
Nanyu sent people into Nancheng to cause chaos. Cheng Lang led the soldiers from Dongying to arrest all the rioters.
Those who were killed were killed, and those who were imprisoned were imprisoned, which completely frightened Nanyu, and Nanyu dared not take any more actions.
Moreover, Cheng Lang also captured Nanyu's seventh prince this time. He took the seventh prince Xiao Tong to the capital. Nanyu had to redeem him and pay money and food.
"It's not as comfortable to rest here as it is to rest here with you. The Duke's Mansion is so cold and there's no one to accompany me." Cheng Lang rested his head directly on Su Yuan's thighs.
Su Yuan: ...
She brought a soft pillow, let Cheng Lang use it as a pillow, and then gave Cheng Lang a massage.
"Did the trip go smoothly? Are you injured?" Su Yuan asked while taking Cheng Lang's pulse.
Seeing that Cheng Lang's pulse was normal, Su Yuan felt relieved.
Cheng Lang laughed and said, "How can I be so weak? I'm only in my early thirties, in the prime of my life."
Su Yuan glanced down at him, becoming more and more shameless.
However, after Cheng Liang was picked up by Li Yanhua, he has been practicing martial arts. After more than 20 years of practicing every day, he is indeed not weak.
Back then, Li Yanhua always praised Cheng Lang for his good aptitude and said he was a good candidate for martial arts.
Perhaps it was because of Li Yanhua's attention that Cheng Lang was regarded as a thorn in the side by his original body.
As a child, you definitely want to compete with others for attention.
Especially since her original body did not receive the love of her father and lost her mother, she only had a grandfather who loved her.
And at this time, an outsider who is better than herself appears. How can she accept it?
