Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

Shen Ning tried to sit up and found that her body was much lighter, as if the dirt accumulated for many years had been washed away, and she felt an indescribable sense of relief.

Ji Yucang ordered Shi Qin and Shi Qi to come in and serve him, then turned to look at Shen Ning: "Wash up first, the tonic soup is ready. Eat less later to replenish your blood."

Shen Ning looked at him steadily for a moment, frowning slightly: "Why do I feel like a woman who has just given birth to a child?"

Ji Yucang paused and said expressionlessly: "It's a pity that after being married to this king for two months, my wife is still in perfect condition, and she is still far away from giving birth to a child."

Shen Ning frowned slightly: "Aren't you childless in this life? How can I give birth to one? Give birth to one with another man and let you be a ready-made father?"

"...That's not necessary." Ji Yucang choked, "I have no obsession with children."

Shi Qin came in with two maids, one carrying water and one carrying clothes.

Ji Yucang took a few steps back and asked Shi Qin and the others to help Shen Ning wash up. During the whole process, his eyes never left Shen Ning, for fear that she would be weak and fall off the bed.

After washing, the maids left.

Shi Qi came in with the tonic soup: "The temperature is just right. Princess, drink it while it's hot."

Shen Ning wiped her hands dry and felt a strong aroma coming to her nostrils, and a strange thought came to her mind for some reason.

Although she looked like she was in confinement, her body, which had never given birth, was highly receptive to the aroma of food and would not make her feel sick after smelling it.

Not knowing what she was thinking at that moment, Ji Yucang took the bowl, sat down on the chair beside the bed, and fed Shen Ning one mouthful after another.

Shen Ning looked around the room while eating and found that they had returned to Jinlin Courtyard. They were probably brought here by Ji Yucang while they were sleeping.

"Have you been watching over me this afternoon?" Shen Ning asked.

Ji Yucang hummed and concentrated on feeding.

Shen Ning said calmly: "How is your body? Do you feel any discomfort?"

Ji Yucang shook his head subconsciously, but looking into Shen Ning's calm eyes, he said truthfully: "I felt a little tired in the afternoon. I lay down here and slept for half an hour. I felt much better after waking up."

Shen Ning knew that he was understating and not telling the truth.

Detoxification is never a comfortable process, not to mention that the poison in his body is so tricky. Last month, he only used silver needles to force out some of the poison, and he had to sleep for a long time. This time, the detoxification was to force out all the poison from the bones. Coming out is like scraping a bone to heal an injury.

But Ji Yucang could bear it, and Shen Ning knew it.

What's more, they are now the eldest brother, not to mention the second brother. They are brothers in distress, and neither of them is much better off.

After finishing the bowl of soup, Shen Ning was sweating again. She was eager to take a bath, take a hot bath and change into fresh clothes.

It would be better if some fresh flower petals could be sprinkled in the bathtub.

But before she could make her request, Ji Yucang spoke first, as if he knew what she was thinking.

"You are weak and can't take a bath yet." He said with a slight hesitation, "How about I ask Shi Qin to bring some hot water to wipe you down?"

When Shen Ning's words came to her lips, she couldn't help but swallow them back.

Ji Yucang stood up and called Shiqin to fetch water.

After Shen Ning had packed everything up, another half hour had passed, and most of the night had passed by unknowingly.

After changing her clothes, Shen Ning leaned on the bedside: "Aren't you still sleeping?"

Ji Yucang pursed his lips and looked at her: "I want to rest here tonight."

Shen Ning raised her eyebrows: "Take advantage of others' danger?"

Ji Yucang reached out and tugged the hair behind her ears: "If you want to think so, I won't deny it."

She was indeed at her weakest now, and he forced her to stay here. She couldn't resist, so she did take advantage of others' danger.

Shen Ning said: "Do you want to go to court tomorrow morning?"

Ji Yucang shook his head.

Shen Ning frowned: "Is there nothing to do in the court?"

"There are many things, and they have all been arranged." Ji Yucang's voice was calm, as if he was strategizing at all times, "Nan Zhao's envoy has Xie Tinglan to deal with it, and other matters have to be arranged by Yan Qingchen and the various ministers. Food and grass are being collected. In the army, I have asked Chu Yunxiao to step up training. Weapons should be replaced and horses should be added. The equipment will be ready when the time comes. As long as you are in good health, you can go to Nanzhao. "

Shen Ning was silent for a long time and then said: "Ji Yucang, I've been thinking about it these past few days. Your troops only listen to you. It's not appropriate for me to lead the troops."

"There is nothing inappropriate." Ji Yucang said, "If I listen to you, the soldiers under my command will naturally -"

"I'm not worried about this." Shen Ning smiled faintly, "I told you before that I don't like fighting, and I have no idea of ​​military merit. My ambition and vision are not as good as those of Princess Pingyao, not to mention that the general and his subordinates are not the same. It needs to be adjusted, I don’t want to waste so much time.”

If something is meaningful, you should do it even if it is difficult. However, it is completely unnecessary to use the ownership of military power and the fate of soldiers to achieve someone's merits and glory.

Ji Yucang didn't speak. He quietly fed her a bowl of supplements and put the bowl aside. Then he narrowed his eyes and said, "You can't bear to attack the Nanzhao soldiers. Maybe more than half of them were once soldiers under your command." ”

Soldiers protect their homes and countries. Whether they are high-ranking generals or small soldiers who can't even name them, they are all part of the army.

The king can kill the commander, seize military power, disrupt or even eliminate some of the commander's trusted generals, but he cannot kill everyone in the army, so those soldiers who are still alive may have had several commanders.

They have no right to speak. All they have is loyalty and obedience to the generals' instructions, and their unswerving determination to protect their homes and country.

Shen Ning's goal of revenge is very clear, but she cannot personally kill the son who once listened to her orders. After all, there is always a wrongdoer and a debtor.

Her enemies were only Han Xun and Emperor Nan Zhao, and had nothing to do with anyone else. She had been on the battlefield for seven years and could best understand the inability of soldiers to do what they wanted.

"Human nature is really a complicated thing." Shen Ning sighed softly, "Hate can make people lose their minds and destroy their conscience. They don't care about anything and only want revenge. But often after revenge, you will find that too many killings have been caused for revenge. , is far from a happy thing.”

Ji Yucang was silent for a moment and slowly held her hand: "Madam's kindness and kindness are deep in her bones. She always involuntarily pities the innocent people, which makes me feel ashamed."
