Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 1021 Having My Own Plans

"General Li, please get up quickly."

Song Ruozhen looked at Chu Junting, who then helped General Li up.

"General Li, you have made great contributions on the battlefield. In fact, the royal family has wronged you in this matter."

Chu Junting remembered that when he went to the battlefield, General Li had already made many military achievements. If it weren't for General Li and his men guarding the border, many people would have been displaced or even lost their lives.

However, General Li was devoted to serving his country, but they failed to take good care of his female relatives, causing her to die so unjustly.

All they can do today is try their best to make amends, but everyone knows in their hearts that such amends are nothing at all.

"No, I have no regrets about defending my country."

General Li shook his head and said, "Back then, I was the one who wronged Wan'er by going to the battlefield, so I fought desperately on the battlefield in order to earn some fame and merit."

I wanted her to marry me in a grand and spectacular way. If it weren't for this accident, everything I had ever wanted in my life would have come true.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

General Li truly understood things clearly; he is indeed a loyal and courageous hero.

Even after all that had happened, he didn't hold a grudge or complain. However... everyone knew that the feud between General Li and Yao Jianqing was likely to come to an end.

Even though everyone had already guessed this, they all chose to keep it to themselves.

You should pay for the sins you have committed.

She ruined two people's lives, why shouldn't she have to pay for it?

"Your Highness, I am so sorry that Wan'er made you unwell."

General Li felt guilty, "I..."

"General Li, you don't need to say more, I understand."

King Yang waved his hand. He had indeed wanted to tear the female ghost who had harmed him to pieces before, but now that he knew the truth, how could he still say such a thing as tearing her to pieces?

This girl has really had a tough time. Speaking of which, the royal family already felt guilty about this, and this can be considered as... making up for some of their guilt.

"My sister-in-law said that my illness is curable and that I will recover after a period of proper treatment."

General Li cupped his hands in thanks, "Thank you!"

Wan'er left with General Li, the two of them, one human and one ghost, leaving with smiles on their faces.

Watching their departing figures, everyone couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. If Wan'er were still alive, General Li would probably have a large family by now.

But thankfully... he's not alone now.

With red eyes, Meng Qin said, "I always thought she wasn't an evil spirit. She really is a lovely girl. She has such a hard life."

"That Yao Jianqing is truly despicable. She's so cruel! Just because she comes from a high-ranking family, does she think she can treat human life so lightly?"

Mencius' mother looked grim and shook her head, saying, "The capital city is under the emperor's nose, so naturally it's impossible to take lives so lightly."

It can only be said that back then, only Miss Wan'er was here, and she had no one she could trust. Almost all of General Li's friends from the battlefield had also gone to the battlefield, so this matter was not thoroughly investigated.

Yao Jianqing thus managed to cover up the matter, but in my opinion, given General Li's upright and incorruptible nature, he will certainly not let Yao Jianqing off easily.

In fact, everyone could see from General Li's firm attitude just now that he was clearly determined to avenge Wan'er.

Military generals' desire for revenge has always been one of tit-for-tat, eye-for-eye, which is not hard to guess at all.

Others might have considered the consequences, but General Li today probably wouldn't care about any of that...

Meng Qin sighed deeply, "It's such a pity."

Song Ruozhen remained silent for a moment. The regrets they had experienced were things they couldn't participate in, but now that they had witnessed them, it was somewhat made up for.

There are so many regrettable things in this world, and all they can do is try their best.

"Now that Wan'er has left with General Li, we should also find a way to treat Prince Yang's illness."

Upon hearing this, everyone finally came to their senses.

"Yes, Prince Yang's illness also needs to be treated as soon as possible."

Mother Meng nodded hurriedly. Her son-in-law looked terrible. If he didn't get treatment soon, it would be troublesome if he developed a chronic illness.

Song Ruozhen wrote down a prescription and handed it to Prince Yang. "Wan'er is gone now, so you can rest well tonight. I have a pill here for you to take to stabilize your vital energy."

Next, follow my prescription and take the medicine on time every day. You can also take tonics such as bird's nest or ginseng soup.

Ultimately, you're just severely weakened right now. With proper care and rest, you'll gradually recover your strength in no time.

Prince Yang took the prescription, looked at the pills on the table, and swallowed them without hesitation.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. I will definitely take it on time every day."

I used to think I was going to die soon, but now it feels like I've been given a second chance at life, like I've been reborn. Just thinking about it makes me excited.

He was practically bursting with joy; he didn't have to die!

In the past few days, he has practically made all the arrangements for his own funeral in his mind.

"In addition, you should paste this talisman I drew on your door."

Resting indoors every day will ensure that no evil spirits can possess you, because your constitution is somewhat special, and you are currently weak, making you susceptible to such things.

Song Ruozhen took out a talisman; she hadn't expected that Prince Yang's constitution was so special.

This kind of thing is inherently mysterious. It's usually fine if you never come into contact with it, but once you've been possessed, the probability of being possessed again increases significantly.

However, as long as the talisman is present while sleeping, there will be no problem.

Prince Yang accepted the talisman with great care, feeling as if it were his protective charm.

It's one thing if this happens once, but if it happens a second time, he really can't stand it.

"Sister-in-law, this is a luminous pearl I found a few days ago. I heard it has a calming effect. And these fine silks are extremely soft. They would be perfect for making clothes for the children."

Prince Yang ordered his men to bring out the items from the storeroom. He was grateful that his sister-in-law had gone to such lengths today, bringing them pills and talismans, and even showing them the existence of ghosts. Naturally, he couldn't leave without showing his appreciation.

"You should keep it for yourself," Chu Junting said. "I think you'll be able to use it soon."

Prince Yang immediately understood Chu Junting's meaning. He smiled and said, "Actually, I wanted to send it over before. I am able to be with Qin'er thanks to my brother and sister-in-law."

Unfortunately, I haven't been feeling well lately, and I was worried that if I went there, I would pass on my illness to my sister-in-law, so I postponed it.

"We can finally deliver it today, so please don't refuse."

"Besides, when I really need it, my brother will surely give it to me, won't he?"
