Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

Back at Prince Zhuang's Mansion, Gu Chen sent someone to take Nangong Qin under strict supervision to prevent him from escaping.

After that, he returned to the inner courtyard.

In the room, the maid Xiao Yu was lying on the bed and fell into a state of half sleep and half awake. Jiang Anran sat beside the bed and carefully sutured the wound for the other party. Her forehead was dripping with sweat, and she did not dare to slack off in any way. Even though the wound was sprinkled with hemp powder, every time Jiang Anran used a needle to sew the other party's wound, Xiaoyu's face would show a trace of discomfort, as if it was a bit painful and unbearable.

Not far away, Jiang Heyan and Chun Xia stood quietly on one side, not daring to make any noise so as not to disturb Jiang Anran. But seeing Xiaoyu's pale and weak cheeks and the wounds that were not covered with blood, Jiang Heyan subconsciously covered her mouth and nose, feeling inexplicably worried and nervous.

Unexpectedly, as His Highness said, someone would really take action against Jiang Anran and the others.

At this time, Gu Chen walked into the room lightly without making much noise.

"Your Highness?!"

Hearing the movement, Jiang Heyan looked sideways, and then noticed Gu Chen entering the door. Her eyes lit up and she called out softly.

"How is this girl?"

Gu Chen walked to Jiang Heyan and asked softly.

"It seems to be quite serious. There is no blood on her face. Now Jiang Anran is bandaging her wounds." Jiang Heyan said.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Anran finally sewed up the wound of the maid Xiaoyu, and then slowly stood up, with a very tired look on her face.

"Do you...want to go to the next room and take a rest."

Seeing Jiang Anran's appearance at this moment, Jiang Heyan pursed her thin lips and asked her in a low voice.

Hearing Jiang Heyan's question, Jiang Anran raised his head and glanced at her, then nodded slowly, "Okay."

What happened today really made her a little scared and uncomfortable, and she still hasn't recovered from it. Just now, he held on to his consciousness and helped Xiao Yu deal with his injuries.

Now she really wants to find a place to take a good rest and calm down her mood.

Seeing that Jiang Anran agreed, Jiang Heyan immediately ordered her maid to clean up a side room for her and take her down to rest.

....

At midnight in the evening, Jiang Quan came to Prince Zhuang's Mansion after hearing the news.

"Your Highness, He Yan, how is my An Ran? Is she injured?"

In the hall, Jiang Quan was restless, his eyes showing worry, and he looked at Gu Chen and Jiang Heyan anxiously.

"Ms. Jiang is fine. She is resting in her room now. If my father-in-law is worried, I can take you over to have a look." Gu Chen said.

"Then please trouble me, Your Highness." Jiang Quan said gratefully.

Soon, Gu Chen brought Jiang Quan to the room where Jiang Anran was. Jiang Anran, who had been lying down to rest, immediately stood up from the bed and looked at Jiang Quan in surprise, "Dad, why are you here?"

"His Royal Highness sent someone to report the letter to the house, and then dad knew that you had been assassinated."

Jiang Quan immediately walked towards Jiang Anran and looked at him with distress, "Are you feeling well? Have you been scared today?"

Jiang Anran shook his head, "I'm fine. It's just that Xiaoyu was seriously injured and the situation is not good."

Looking at the warm scene of Jiang Quan and his daughter in front, Jiang Heyan's eyes flashed with ripples, and she felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.

Gu Chen noticed Jiang Heyan's gaze, held her hand directly, and whispered, "Let's go out first and let them chat inside."

"Um."

Jiang Heyan looked up at Gu Chen, nodded weakly, and followed Gu Chen out of the room.

....

It wasn't until late at night that Jiang Quan came out of the room and returned to the living room.

Seeing that Gu Chen was the only one in the room, Jiang Quan asked curiously: "Your Highness, where is He Yan?"

Gu Chen said with a smile: "She was a little tired, so I sent her back to rest first."

"oh oh."

Jiang Quan didn't ask any more questions, then he sat down nearby and looked at Gu Chen again.

"Your Highness, was it really someone from the Prime Minister's Office who did this this time?!"

Gu Chen nodded, "Well, now Nangong Qin is locked up in my house."

Hearing Gu Chen's answer, Jiang Quan's face turned cold, and he shouted in a low voice: "This Nangong family is getting more and more arrogant. I really think that the Duke's office is afraid of him!"

Gu Chen smiled and said: "Father-in-law, let's discuss how to deal with this matter! Now that Nangong Qin is in my hands, people from the Prime Minister's Office will definitely come to ask for him."

Jiang Quan was stunned when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he looked at Gu Chen and asked, "What is your highness's plan?"

Gu Chen said: "I don't know yet, so I want to hear the opinions of my father-in-law and the Duke."

After all, Nangong Qin was also the legitimate son of the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. If he killed him directly like this, he was worried that the Prime Minister's Mansion would be completely panicked.

Of course, Gu Chen is not afraid of the Prime Minister's Palace, but is worried that the other party will jump over the wall and attack the people around him.

"It's hard for me to make a decision on this matter. Why don't you wait until I go back to inform him and listen to his idea." Jiang Quan said.

Although An Ran was assassinated this time, which made him have no good impression of the Prime Minister's Mansion. But now this matter involves the previous relationship between the three families, and he doesn't dare to mess with it on his own.

"Yeah, that's fine." Gu Chen nodded, not in a hurry to deal with Nangong Qin now.

After all, it is not him who is anxious now, but the Prime Minister's Office.

After a brief chat, Jiang Quan slowly stood up and left Prince Zhuang's Mansion with Jiang Anran and the others.

Gu Chen then turned around and prepared to go back to the house to rest.

Click!

Pushing open the door, the candlelight in the room illuminated the room brightly. When she heard the sound from the door, Jiang Heyan on the bed subconsciously turned around and saw Gu Chen entering the room.

At this moment, she had taken off the makeup on her face and looked more delicate and gentle. Her long hair fell vertically to her waist, and she was wearing a long white dress.

"Still not asleep?" Gu Chen asked curiously with a faint smile.

"Wait until His Highness comes back."

After saying that, she gently opened the quilt covering her body and stood up from the bed, "Your Highness, let me help you."

"OK."

Gu Chen nodded and did not refuse.

It seems that he is used to the other party undressing for him.

After cleaning up, Gu Chen took off his shoes and went to bed, squeezing into the bed with Jiang Heyan.

"Your Highness, have my father and Jiang Anran left?"

Jiang Heyan was lying next to Gu Chen and couldn't help but ask.

"Well, he's gone." Gu Chen said.

After hearing the answer, Jiang Heyan stopped asking further questions and leaned quietly against the other party.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Heyan couldn't help but ask again, "Your Highness, Jiang Anran and the others...were the situation at that time very dangerous?"

She was always at home and didn't know what was going on outside.

But after seeing the bottomless wound on the maid's stomach today, she seemed to be able to feel what Jiang Anran was doing at that time.

"Well, if we had arrived a little slower, Miss Jiang might have been captured by the Prime Minister's Mansion." Gu Chen nodded and said.

After saying this, Jiang Heyan couldn't help but raise her head and looked at Gu Chen's profile seriously.

Today, when she learned that His Highness was going to rescue Jiang Anran, her first thought was not to worry, but to be a little jealous.

He even subconsciously doubted whether His Highness also had a good impression of Jiang Anran.

But when she saw Jiang Anran's dejected look when he returned home and the injuries sustained by the maid, she realized that her previous thoughts were wrong.

If His Highness had not rescued him in time this time and allowed Jiang Anran to be captured by the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion, she could not even imagine what kind of encounter the other party might face.

If she had experienced such a scene, she would have been frightened.

When she thought of this, she suddenly felt palpitations and fear in her heart. She held Gu Chen's hand tightly, trying to find a sense of security.

"Your Highness, can you hold me..."

Gu Chen clearly felt Jiang Heyan's body trembling slightly, and immediately put the other person in his arms, put his right hand on the back of the other person's head, and asked with concern: "What's wrong? Did you think of something bad?" ”

Jiang Heyan clung to Gu Chen's arms like a frightened cat, "Your Highness, if...if something like this happens to me in the future..."

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Chen leaned down, kissed her forehead gently, and whispered comfortingly: "I will protect you."
