Chapter 418 Marriage
This sentence was undoubtedly a roundabout way of scolding Li Yan'er.
Li Yan'er was so angry that she burst into tears when she saw Xie Jiaojiao being beaten.
"Jiahui! If you have anything to say, come to me. Why do you take your anger out on others?"
Jiahui looked at her and said sarcastically, "Who the hell are you?"
Li Yaner's eyes were full of fire. If she could, she would have rushed up and fought her to the death!
I don't know how many times he hit her before he stopped. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Xie Jiaojiao's mouth and her cheek was swollen.
The servant let go of her arm, and Xie Jiaojiao almost collapsed to the ground, her head buzzing.
"Are you convinced?" Princess Jiahui stared at her and asked.
I admire your mother, but Xie Jiaojiao knew that she couldn't cause trouble for Sister Linglong.
Her cheeks felt a burning pain, but she had to bow her head respectfully: "Thank you, Princess, for your teachings!"
"Untouchables are untouchables! Hahaha..."
After saying this, he covered his mouth with one hand and left with the palace maids and servants.
After seeing everyone leave, the servant who was holding Li Yan'er and Jiang Ruonan let go of them and followed the princess.
The two ran to Xie Jiaojiao.
I saw that her hair was a little messy.
Li Yan'er cried and asked, "Cousin, are you okay?"
Xie Jiaojiao wanted to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, her mouth hurt, so she could only shake her head.
Hong Liu came over and helped Xie Jiaojiao up: "Don't worry, Madam Biao, the prince's wife will not let her go!"
Xie Jiaojiao waved her hands and tried to say a few words: "Don't cause trouble for big sister."
If it were just now, she could have said something to silence Princess Jiahui, but she couldn't. Now was a critical moment, and she couldn't give others any chance to find fault with the Jiang family or Sister Linglong.
Otherwise, if they make a mistake, the Jiang family will be doomed!
Seeing that it was getting late, several people hurried towards the palace gate.
Finally, at the last moment, he left the palace.
In the carriage, Li Yan'er took the ointment in the carriage and applied it to Xie Jiaojiao.
She said, "Cousin, actually Jiahui wasn't targeting you or me."
"What about her?"
“It’s Big Sister!”
Xie Jiaojiao looked at her, waiting for her next words.
She had a very good relationship with her elder sister since childhood, and her elder sister was her study partner at that time.
It was just that when they were young, they met Yi Wuchang at the same time.
Yi Wuchang? The general who once made a vow of eternal love with my elder sister, but ended up marrying someone else?
"Like the same person?"
Li Yan'er nodded: "But Jiahui was fine at that time. After she knew that Yi Wuchang liked my elder sister, she stopped pestering him and married the man chosen by His Majesty. But the good times didn't last long. Her husband died young and she became a widow. And because she had no children, His Majesty let her return to the palace."
"She hated her elder sister because of this?"
Li Yan'er shook her head: "What really made her hate her elder sister was that she married the eldest prince and gave birth to a little prince!"
When this was mentioned, Jiang Ruonan also became very angry.
"She doesn't hate her sister for marrying the eldest prince. She thinks she helped her sister and Yi Wuchang so much, but they didn't work out. She just regrets it in her heart!"
At this point, Jiang Ruonan sighed: "But what good thing is Yi Wuchang?"
"Cousin, do you remember that year when my sister and I went to look for you?"
"During the Chinese New Year?"
Jiang Ruonan nodded and sighed, "That was the time when my parents indulged my sister the most. My parents felt bad for my sister for being delayed until such an age because of Yi Wuchang. Before Yi Wuchang got married, my sister wrote a letter to him, asking him to take her away! My parents knew that my sister was leaving, but they still asked the servants to let her go and sent people to protect her secretly. But my sister went outside the city and waited for that unfaithful man for a whole night, but he didn't come!"
At the end, Jiang Ruonan was very angry.
Xie Jiaojiao didn’t know that there was such a story in the middle, which was about why Sister Linglong would marry the eldest prince without hesitation.
"Princess Jiahui always makes trouble for me every time I enter the palace, but every time she just makes me kneel for a while longer. She bullies you like this today, it must be because she has never seen you before and thinks you are easy to bully!" Li Yan'er said angrily.
"Did she bully you when you entered the palace before?" Jiang Ruonan asked.
Li Yan'er pursed her lips: "I'm used to it."
After a while, they arrived at the gate of the Prime Minister's residence.
When Jiang Weinan heard the servants say that his cousin's wife had returned, he ran over immediately. However, before he reached the hall, he saw Xie Jiaojiao coming back with a handkerchief covering her face.
"Is it so cold outside?"
Xie Jiaojiao didn't say anything.
When she got into the house, Xie Jiaojiao took off her veil, revealing that her cheeks were swollen and red, and the corners of her mouth were sore.
Jiang Weinan was instantly furious.
"Who hit you?" he said and was about to walk outside.
Xie Jiaojiao held him back: "Don't."
At this time, everyone from the Jiang Mansion came over.
"Cousin, it was Princess Jiahui who beat him." Li Yan'er said.
He Mengwan slammed the table angrily and looked at Xie Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, don't worry, your uncle and aunt will definitely give you an explanation for this matter."
Xie Jiaojiao waved her hands quickly: "Aunt, I know this is a matter of life and death. I just got slapped a few times. It will be fine in two days. You and uncle should not make trouble because of this little thing of mine."
The aunt was moved and took her hand: "You are a good child, but we can't suffer such a loss in the Prime Minister's Mansion, otherwise others will think we are easy to bully!"
He Mengwan nodded beside him.
That night, he told Jiang Zhongren about this.
Jiang Zhongren even came to see her specially. After seeing her, he said the same thing to He Mengwan: "Uncle will definitely give you an explanation!"
At the morning court the next day, Jiang Zhongren took the initiative to talk about the war on the border. He also said that there was a precedent of sending princesses to marry in the previous dynasty. Now that the emperor was critically ill, he was afraid that the Huns on the border would attack him in groups. Therefore, it would be better to send a princess to marry.
After hearing what he said, the queen's face almost turned green with anger. Everyone knew that she was the only princess of marriageable age in the entire dynasty. Just as she was about to object, she heard Jiang Zhongren say, "I remember that Princess Jiahui has been blessed by your majesty and has lived in the deep palace for a long time. She is deeply loved by the people. At this time, she will definitely stand up..."
The queen laughed. Everyone knew that Princess Jiahui’s biological mother was the woman the queen hated the most!
The matter was settled.
Jiahui was still in her own palace, pointing fingers at the enemy, and regretting that she had not given that lowly man a light beating yesterday.
Unexpectedly, the palace servants came running over and said that the Queen Mother agreed to let her go to marry...
what!
Jiahui trembled all over, and the finger gun was smeared on her fingers. Her beautiful eyes suddenly turned cold, and the palace maid knelt on the ground, trembling.
But she didn't have time to care about those things. She stood up instantly and pointed down at the palace servant who came to report.
"Why did the court suddenly bring up the matter of marriage today?"
The palace maid fell to the ground and said, "I heard that Prime Minister Jiang mentioned it today."
Jiahui slumped back into the chaise longue…
