Chapter 4 — Tham Chieu

"Many noble ladies in the capital have also followed suit, helping me solve urgent matters." "Maester Lam's daughter is too arrogant, and has caused trouble for your wife many times these past few days. She has suffered a lot of frustration." "I saw that you were having a hard time giving birth, so I specifically told the Queen to prepare a lot of maternity care items. You take them all back, remember to spend a lot of time with her on weekdays." "Yes, I... obey orders." When Bui Thanh returned to the palace, I was stewing soup myself in the kitchen. Hearing him call my name, for a moment I thought I had seen a ghost in broad daylight. But I quickly adjusted my expression and smiled gently. "The general has returned." "Yesterday, Miss Lam came to the palace and said that the two of you had an appointment by letter and would spend a beautiful night together today, so I didn't ask the kitchen to prepare dinner, just made a few dishes from home myself." "If the general doesn't mind, you can eat with me." I personally ladled soup for him, propped my chin up and looked at him. It seems that Bui Thanh is not in the mood to eat. He ate a few bites, then put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said in a low voice: "This time it was Lam Dinh Ngoc who was wrong, she was not right." "Don't worry, I know you have suffered a lot of resentment. After the separation, I will definitely make it up to you, and your fiance too..." I gave him a piece of sweet and sour fried ribs, smiling. "It's just a childhood engagement agreement. We only met once when we were kids, so we can't really be considered fiancees." husband." "If we separate in the future, our family's inheritance will be very large, and my father will not have a problem raising me for the rest of my life." "As for Miss Lam, she has been pampered since she was a child, and it is normal for her to not understand the suffering of the common people." "The distribution of porridge that my family has always done is convenient. It helps the general gain a good reputation, and can be considered as a reward for his kindness in taking care of me all this time." Bui Thanh's eyes looked at me for a moment. This was the first time he said something bad about Lam Dinh Ngoc. "Even if you don't understand the suffering of the people, you shouldn't smash the porridge counter or burn medicinal herbs." "This time she's really too much." "I'll talk to Scholar Lam and tell him to teach her well." Tieu Dao stood behind and muttered in a low voice: "What's the point of smashing the porridge counter? She even slapped our young lady a few times, and to this day she still hasn't put her finger on it." melted." "She dumped her?" Bui Thanh was stunned. He immediately stood up and walked to me, raising his hand to lift my chin to carefully examine it. "Why don't you apply the ointment? This place is still bruised." I tilted my head slightly, leaving no trace, gently pushed his hand away, smiling gently. "I already applied the ointment." "It's just that Miss Lam comes to trouble me every three days or two, the old scar has not yet healed and there is already a new one." "General, you don't need to worry." Bui Thanh immediately. Send someone to bring the best medicinal needle and apply the medicine yourself. I occasionally inhaled slightly because of the pain and said in a low voice: "Don't blame Miss Lam." "I originally stole her marriage and her position as main wife. It's understandable that she's dissatisfied." "I won't take it to heart." Bui Thanh opened his mouth and sighed helplessly. "Her personality is too soft." "I don't know how much resentment she has suffered on the outside." "Bang!" The door of the room was forcefully pushed open by someone from the outside. Lam Dinh Ngoc, dressed splendidly, beautiful as a flower, rushed straight into the room, his eyes staring intently at us. She picked up a bowl of hot soup on the table, threw it straight at my face, lost control and screamed: "Didn't I say that when I get back to the palace, I'll come find me first?" "Why are you next to her?" "Bui Thanh, do you really like her? Or do you like the baby in her belly?!" Bui Thanh immediately put his hand in front of me. The bowl of hot soup splashed onto the back of his hand, causing a red burn. He tried to suppress his anger and explained: "No

Yes." "Your Majesty knew that she was pregnant, so you rewarded me with some pregnancy care items and told me to bring them back first." "Even your Majesty knew that she was pregnant?" Lam Dinh Ngoc's venomous eyes tightened on me, the corners of his lips curled up sarcastically. "That's a good idea." "Knowing that Bui Thanh would be soft-hearted for the baby, he deliberately let His Majesty know." "So Bui Thanh will know." If I don't break up with you, you can continue to take my position, right?" "Not at all, Dinh Ngoc, please listen to my explanation." The blue veins on Bui Thanh's forehead were clearly visible. "It's because I want Chieu Chieu to give birth to the baby before separating." "At that time, the baby will continue to be raised in the General's palace." "If she were married and separated, how would outsiders view me?"… Lam Dinh Ngoc stood frozen in place, unable to utter a word of rebuttal. She suddenly realized that something was wrong. In the past, regardless of whether he was right or wrong, Bui Thanh was firmly on her side, the one who made her feel the most secure. But now, because of a woman from a loving family, he not only broke his promise to her, but also couldn't bear to separate for the sake of an unborn child. He even looked at her with his eyes The other prince also had some warmth. This was the first time Lam Dinh Ngoc felt a crisis. Seeing her as if she had lost her soul, Bui Thanh could not bear it and gently comforted her: "Today, Your Majesty rewarded me with many jewels and jewels. She went to the warehouse..." "General, when you mentioned that, I suddenly remembered." I smiled and interrupted him, handing over a delicate brocade box. "A few days ago, when distributing relief porridge, I accidentally discovered that the government's books had a large deficit, almost not enough to collect." "This is the dowry my parents gave me, which can make up for it somewhat." Bui Thanh was a little confused. "The things your Majesty gave me as a reward, I have never touched. Dinh Ngoc only occasionally takes one or two dishes he likes..."
