Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1541: Chapter 1542: I Offer This World as Your Bridal Dowry

Ye Zhi now already knew Gong Juechen’s skills were excellent, so she did not refuse and let Gong Juechen escort her back to King of Xiyun’s mansion on this deep night.

Gong Juechen was usually very talkative, but on the way back to King of Xiyun’s mansion escorting Ye Zhi, he uncharacteristically didn’t say a word, particularly silent.

Clearly, he was fine at the celebration banquet.

Regarding this contrast of Gong Juechen, Ye Zhi was first slightly stunned, then she realized, she wanted to say something several times, but in the end, she also did not say a word.

The two of them silently arrived at the mansion of King of Xiyun.

”Be careful on your way back.” Ye Zhi felt that escorting her to the mansion’s gate was enough, so she finally spoke, saying this to Gong Juechen.

”Let me escort you a bit further.” Gong Juechen didn’t plan on returning just like that.

Seeing him so unusual today, Ye Zhi complied with his wish, allowing him to escort her into Prince Yi’s Mansion.

Then escorted her into her courtyard where she lived.

Then escorted her into the room where she lived.

Gong Juechen did not leave, nor did he speak. Ye Zhi also did not drive Gong Juechen away, but she did not speak either.

The two of them just stood facing each other quietly.

Gong Juechen looked at Ye Zhi for a long while, then said softly, ”Zhizhi, I’m sorry, I dragged you down, otherwise, you would already be a General.”

Regarding the incident of Gong Juechen’s imperial consort killing the mother of Su Chengyu, she already knew when An Jing talked about Gong Juechen’s origins to her.

Not being promoted to General, she had actually suspected it was because of Gong Juechen.

However, she didn’t care at all.

Ye Zhi smiled and said, ”I don’t want to be a General, I just want to live a good life with you.”

Compared to military sentiments, at this moment, right now, she truly wanted to live well with him.

When she agreed to marry him, she immediately began thinking this way.

”Zhizhi...” Gong Juechen was both moved and felt as if his heart was painfully rooted. He didn’t want her to suffer any grievances at all. Not even slightly.

Ye Zhi was still smiling, ”After marrying you, I won’t be a Deputy General anymore, you also stop being a military doctor, and let’s just live a good life together.”

Life always requires trade-offs. Marrying him means he is her husband, her other half, for her other half, she would give up this Deputy General, even if in the future she grows old and haggard, and he falls for someone else, she would have no regrets about this decision she made now.

”Zhizhi...” Gong Juechen’s peach blossom eyes slightly reddened, not knowing what to say, his lips trembling slightly.

He wanted to live a good life with her, but he didn’t want her to give up what she deserved. It really wronged her too much.

He didn’t want her to be so wronged.

Ye Zhi rarely took the initiative to embrace Gong Juechen’s waist, placing her left ear on Gong Juechen’s chest, listening to his somewhat rushed heartbeat, she softly and slowly said, ”You said, let me give you a home, and you’ll give me a home too, we are about to have a home soon, I have no other requests, just want you to truly cherish this home.”

Gong Juechen was deeply moved, raised his hand, hesitated a bit, but in the end, he embraced Ye Zhi back, holding her tighter and tighter.

Resting his chin on top of Ye Zhi’s head, Gong Juechen’s lip line initially trembled, and his eyes were red, yet he suddenly thought of something, and his lips stopped trembling instantly, the moved expression disappeared as well, leaving only his slightly narrowed peach blossom eyes, which were particularly dangerous, intimidating.

”Zhizhi, how about I use the world as your betrothal gift?” Suddenly, Gong Juechen asked with a half-smiling, half-not expression.
