The sky is as dark as lead, and the clouds are as cold as water.

The first winter snow in the 23rd year of Chengping fell for a full tenth.

In the willow alley in the capital, a five-entrance mansion was shrouded in white. Looking closely, in addition to winter snow, there were also mourning banners.

The funeral broke out in the Yingwu Hou’s Mansion.

Half a month ago, Gu Yun, a valiant warrior, suddenly encountered an enemy attack in Liangshan, with his body and head different from each other.

As soon as this incident happened, the court was in an uproar. Who is Yingwu Hou Gu Yun?

He is the eldest grandson of the founding hero of the old British Duke. He is the god of war who can shoot left and right at the age of twelve, wins victoriously, and goes to the battlefield at the age of 18 to win the enemy's head!

This time, there were bandits in Liangshan, and the saints set the hearts of the people in order to support the prince, sent the prince to suppress the bandits. In order to ensure that everything was safe, they also asked the Marquis of Yingwu to accompany him to protect him. It should have been a simple little thing, but who would have thought that he would have been plotted against, and the Marquis of Yingwu even lost his life to protect the prince!

When the saint learned about this, he was furious and immediately sent Yulin Guard to Liangshan and directly brought the bandits' nests. Later, he also appointed Yingwu Hou as the first-class Duke of England, restored his grandfather's title when he was alive, and gave him an iron coupon of hereditary alchemy.

But the saint's pension failed to comfort the wife of the Marquis of Yingwu, and she lost her close relatives and beloved. The Marquis of Yingwu became sick and died seven days later and followed the Marquis of Yingwu.

The Yingwu Hou Mansion suddenly lost two pillars, just like the sky collapsed and the earth fell, and everyone was in danger.

In the eyes of the people, the once glorious Yingwu Marquis Mansion is now only a sick prince and a weak prince's wife. Even if there is a elixir certificate given by the Tian family, what else can it do?

What's more, who knows whether that iron coupon for the Yangwu Marquis’ Mansion is a blessing or a death talisman?

...

In the Yingwu Hou’s Mansion, the cold wind was biting and the white mist was vast.

Lu Yuanning was wearing a single manuscript dress with loose hair, leaning against the bed with carved nanmu, closing his eyes to rest.

But the next second, she suddenly woke up and looked up at the bed, "When is it? Is the prince awake?"

As soon as I opened my mouth, my voice was hoarse and I couldn't hear clearly.

"Madam, go and rest first. There are maids guarding me here. If you wake up, I will notify you immediately." The maid next to me was so embarrassed that she hurriedly advised.

Lu Yuanning breathed a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to speak, he looked up and saw a white lantern with the word "Dian" hanging under the eaves of the corridor, floating in the cold wind, looking particularly desolate and sad.

A trace of pain flashed in her blood-covered eyes. She quickly lowered her eyes to avoid it and told the maid beside her, "Chenxiang, go and close the window."

"Madam, you haven't been in a close eye for two days. How can you stand it if you continue like this? Even if you don't think about it for yourself, you should think about the child in your womb!" The middle-aged woman next to him advised in disagreement.

"Madam Kong, I'm fine. If the prince doesn't wake up, how can I sleep peacefully? My father and mother are no longer there. The marquis's mansion can no longer lose the prince..." Lu Yuanning looked sad, and there was even more sorrow in his voice.

When she was betrayed by everyone and was forced to twist into the sedan chair three years ago, she thought that the rest of her life would be over. She didn't expect that she would meet such a good father-in-law and mother-in-law. They did not despise her, did not make things difficult for her, nor did they hate her like the Lu family, and abandon her like her.

They treated her as their own, and taught her carefully. Many things that she had been confused in the past suddenly became enlightened after their teachings.

Only then did she realize how confused and failed she had in the first eighteen years.

It can be said that it was Yingwu Hou Mansion that gave her a new life.

It’s probably because she did too many sins in the past, and God feels that she doesn’t deserve such happiness.

So, I destroyed all this with my own hands.

But if you want to punish her, just punish her. What did the people in the Yingwu Marquis’ Mansion do wrong? Why should they be punished?!

Thinking of this, Lu Yuanning's heart hurts densely like a needle.

She bent down in pain to relieve the biting pain.

"Madam, are you okay?" Chen Xiang quickly stepped forward to support her and said in a crying voice: "The prince is still unconscious. If you have any more trouble, the marquis's mansion will not even be in charge of the overall situation. You don't know that everyone outside is rumoring that our marquis' mansion is almost over, saying that the prince and you cannot support the marquis' mansion, and that the marquis's 100-year foundation will be destroyed in the marquis' generation."

"Chenxiang!" Madam Kong said angrily: "What did you say this?"

Chenxiang shrank his shoulders and dared not speak anymore.

Lu Yuanning straightened up and said solemnly: "Who is talking nonsense! As long as I still live in this world for one day, I will never let the Marquis' Mansion collapse!"

She couldn't repay her parents-in-law's kindness. Now that they were gone, she would not let the Marquis's Mansion be destroyed in their hands even if she had fought for this life.

"Ning Niang..." It was probably because their quarrel was too loud, and the man on the bed moved and slowly opened his eyes.

A hint of joy flashed through Lu Yuanning's eyes, and he immediately leaned over and held the man's hand, "Criminal, you are awake!"

The man on the bed had a very handsome face, his eyebrows flew into his temples, his eyes were as cold as stars, and his black hair was scattered on the jade pillow like ink, but his bloodless lips and sunken cheeks made him look less energetic and more pale and fragile.

He raised his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, a haggard and tired face reflected in his black jade-like eyes.

A trace of pain flashed in his eyes, but he soon returned to calm and said lightly: "I am fine, I worry you."

Lu Yuanning breathed a sigh of relief and immediately reminded the maid beside him: "Chenxiang, go and invite Doctor Wang quickly, and the prince has woken up."

The little maid left, and Madam Kong was also very happy. She looked out the window and clasped her hands together and said, "Mr. Marquis, bless me, the prince has finally woken up. The Marquis's Mansion will definitely survive this disaster safely."

Lu Yuanning took the black-haired pillow and sat up, "Criminal, how do you feel? But what else is there? You have been in a coma for three days and three nights, which scared us all."

After this movement, Gu Jingxing suddenly coughed violently.

"Criminal!" Lu Yuanning's face turned pale, so scared that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

Gu Jingxing turned his head, pressed down the blood from his throat with force, and said calmly: "I'm fine, don't worry."

How could Lu Yuanning not worry?

The frail and sickly son of the King of Yingwu, Gu Jingxing, was brought out from his womb.
