Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

"Chun Xia! Did you say His Highness was here last night?" Jiang Heyan looked at Chun Xia in surprise.

As soon as she got up, Chun Xia told her that Gu Chen came to the room while she was resting last night.

Chunxia nodded nervously.

"Your Highness is here, why didn't you wake me up then?" Jiang Heyan asked.

Chun Xia whispered: "Your Highness didn't let me wake up the young lady, so... I didn't dare to scream."

"Did His Highness say why he came here yesterday?"

Chun Xia shook her head and said, "My uncle just said to come and see the young lady, and didn't say anything else."

"Oh! You girl, I'm going to be so angry with you!" Jiang Heyan said angrily.

Who is your master?

He told you not to scream, so you really didn’t!

Your Highness came to the room to see her, but she was sleeping. What's the matter?

There is no distinction at all.

"Miss, I... really didn't mean it." Chun Xia said aggrievedly.

She also wanted to shout at that time!

But her uncle was standing nearby, and she didn't dare at all...

"Forget it, if you encounter this situation again in the future, you have to wake me up no matter what." Jiang Heyan reminded.

The other person is the head of the family.

Although she is also the mistress now, she has no substantial development with Gu Chen. Instead, she is like an outsider living in someone else's house.

When the other party came over, she had to get up no matter what, otherwise it would be against etiquette.

"Yeah, Chunxia understands." Chunxia nodded slowly.

After dressing up, Jiang Heyan left the room.

"Princess Zhuang."

As soon as they arrived at the compound, several guards guarding the door bowed slightly and bowed their heads in salute.

Jiang Heyan was stunned. Aren't these the guards around His Highness?

Why are you staying here today?

Then, she asked curiously: "Where is the prince?"

One of them replied: "The prince has something to do and he has ordered us to protect the princess."

"oh oh."

Jiang Heyan didn't ask any more questions.

Yesterday, assassins broke into the palace. Her Highness was probably worried that someone would do her harm, so she sent someone to protect her.

....

The Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.

Gu Mao lay lazily on the chair, and several good-looking palace maids knelt on the ground beside him. Some of them squeezed his back, and some fed him grapes.

"Your Highness, someone just sent six boxes, saying they were gifts from His Highness King Jin." A guard came in and bowed.

Gu Mao raised his eyes, with a smile on his face, "Haha, since when has Lao Liu been pretending to be mysterious? This is a bit unlike him! Where are those boxes now? Bring them to me, the prince."

"yes."

Not long after, six guards came in, each holding a brocade box in their hands.

Gu Mao stood up from his chair, walked to one of the boxes with interest, and opened it.

The moment it was opened, a pungent smell of blood suddenly filled the entire hall, and a bloody head suddenly appeared in front of Gu Mao's eyes.

boom!

Gu Mao's face instantly turned pale, he kicked the guard, and cursed angrily: "You bastard, don't let me get away from you!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The guard was shocked, immediately closed the box and moved back.

Snapped!

Gu Mao picked up a cup and smashed it on the ground, roaring angrily: "Old Jiu, you are trying to trick me!"

....

"Hey, hey, why don't you give me an approval document? It's not like I don't have money?"

"If you don't open it, you won't open it. Get out of here and don't force me to take action!"

"Hey, what's your attitude! After all, I am also the daughter of the Duke of Zhen Guo. You should treat me with respect."

"I don't care whose daughter you are, if my magistrate says you won't do it, then I won't do it. Do you understand?"

At the gate of the Kyoto government office, a young girl in Tsing Yi with an unremarkable appearance and rude behavior was arguing with an official with an angry look on her face. The official opposite looked arrogant and didn't want to talk to him at all.

The woman was none other than Jiang Anran, the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo.

"Miss, why don't we forget it? People in this government are obviously not easy to talk to." The maid next to her reminded her cautiously.

I don’t know what kind of thing my young lady has got into, so she insists on setting up a shop.

As a result, when they came to the government to inquire, the other party was unwilling to issue the approval document because they were women.

He also said that no matter how much money he had to pay, he would do it.

"Damn, that's total sexism!" Jiang Anran couldn't help complaining.

She saw it too.

I want to get the approval from the government today, but if it doesn't matter, it will probably be a long shot.

Boom, boom, boom!

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves rumbled, and a neat and solemn team also arrived at the gate of the government office.

Jiang Anran looked over after hearing the sound, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This is not...that Zhuang Wang!

My own brother-in-law?

On the other side, Gu Chen also saw Jiang Anran making a fuss at the gate of the government office, and his eyes suddenly became more interested.

If I remember correctly, the heroine wanted to open a shop, or a hot pot restaurant.

It's mid-October now, and the temperature in Kyoto has plummeted, and it's likely to snow in less than January at best.

The spicy and warm hot pot must be a good choice for many people.

More importantly, this is ancient times, and this novel way of washing pots is bound to attract many people.

In the original plot, after Jiang Anran met Jin Wang Gu Tianming, he successfully opened a hot pot restaurant with his help.

Perhaps because of her aura as a heroine, the hotpot restaurant she opened tasted very authentic, and there was an endless stream of guests coming here.

In less than a month, she visited five hotpot chain stores in Kyoto and made a lot of money.

Gu Chen just happened to pass by the government office today and didn't know Jiang Anran was there.

But now, he has an idea.

"Miss Jiang."

Gu Chen smiled gently and took the initiative to say hello.

"His Royal Highness Prince Zhuang."

Jiang Anran quickly responded with a less than standard female courtesy.

Although Jiang Anran is Jiang Heyan's sister.

But one of them is a direct descendant, and the other is a concubine, so their status is very different.

So when Gu Chen meets the other person, he only calls you by your last name.

"Why is Miss Jiang in the government office? Do you have something to do?" Gu Chen asked pretendingly.

"Your Highness, to be honest, this little girl wanted to open a shop, but she never got the approval from the government." Jiang Anran smiled awkwardly.

"Open a shop? Miss Jiang, most wealthy families stay at home playing chess, calligraphy, painting, and learning etiquette and music. Why are you thinking about going into business?" Gu Chen continued to pretend to be confused.

"Everyone has his own ambitions. Compared to others, I prefer doing business to make money." Jiang Anran said frankly, not bothering to pretend.

She doesn't like officialdom and the worldly relationships she had with the aristocratic family.

Wouldn’t it be nice to be a little rich woman?

Buy whatever you want.

"oh oh."

Gu Chen nodded cooperatively, and then asked: "Then why didn't the government approve it? I remember that there are still many shops for rent in Kyoto."

"The government said that women cannot engage in business." Jiang Anran said.

Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, then looked at Jiang Anran and said, "How about I help Miss Jiang get the official approval?"

"Really!" Jiang Anran's face showed surprise.

She believes what the other person says.

For the dignified Ninth Prince of Zhou, getting an approval document is not a casual matter.

What surprised her was that the other party was willing to help her.

After all, her relationship with her sister Jiang Heyan was very tense, and the other person was Jiang Heyan's husband.

"Of course, Miss Jiang, let's go in together!"

Gu Chen smiled and nodded, then invited.

"OK."
