Male supporting role is not a stepping stone

Chapter 143: The God of War Protecting the Nation 20

In his heart, he cursed his sister who had ruined the reputation of the whole family. Young Master Jiang could only knock on the door of Prince Ning's mansion at the signal of his father.

The guards who had closed the door with a cold face when they saw them a few days ago finally let them in after hearing that they were here to collect the dowry, but they still didn't look very happy.

The father and son dared not to be angry but followed the guards in through the side door. They were so proud of their son-in-law/brother-in-law being a famous war god in Dalin before, and now they felt so uncomfortable.

After all, the more powerful the other party is, the more the Jiang family will be affected. In order not to dislike Prince Ning, I am afraid that those big families will not associate with them for a long time in the future.

And with the reputation of their daughter cheating, even if they want to marry someone higher up, it is basically impossible. The women in the family can only marry down and look at those small families.

The Jiang family might really be in decline. The faces of the father and son became uglier than the other.

Yang Yan had ordered people to pack Jiang Ruxue's dowry a long time ago. Forty heavy boxes were neatly stacked, filling her room with almost no space to stand.

It was not that her dowry was so much, but that the clothes she wore on weekdays, the quilts she used, the tea sets and even a comb were all packed so that the Jiang family could take them all away.

Such an obviously disgusting attitude made Jiang's father and his son look unhappy, but they didn't even say a word and asked the servants to move things.

However, there were only seven or eight of them, and it was obviously impossible to move everything in one trip. Moreover, they only had an ordinary carriage when they came, which could not hold so many items. They could only move some out first, and the servants would escort them back first, and then bring more people and carriages to help.

The Jiang family moved things back and forth in the Ning Wang Mansion, and there were guards guarding them. Except for this courtyard and the road to the side door, they were not allowed to go anywhere else.

Not to mention that tea and snacks were not available, even when Mr. Jiang wanted to go to the toilet, there were guards following him, just like guarding against thieves!

If Jiang's father had not given up before and had thought of waiting for Ning Wang to calm down before trying to make amends, after this experience, he completely gave up this idea. He finally realized clearly that the best outcome for the two families in the future would be strangers.

The servants of the Jiang family quickly came in large numbers and loaded all the boxes onto the carriage. Jiang's father and his wife tried hard to control their frustration from showing on their faces, but they were slightly broken by the pointing and talking of the crowd, and were a little dejected and prepared to get on the car and leave.

At this time, Jiang Ruxue finally arrived after a difficult journey. In the past, she always took a sedan chair or a carriage when she went out, and she didn't feel much. This time she walked on her own two legs, and she felt that the capital was so big.

She hadn't eaten properly for a few days, and when she arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion, she almost collapsed from exhaustion. From a distance, she saw a group of people gathered at the door, pointing and talking at the carriages inside.

She was very confused. This was the Duke's Mansion. How could anyone dare to make a noise here? Could it be that... Sheng Yangyan was in trouble?

As she approached with an inexplicable excitement, Jiang Ruxue first saw two familiar figures and was immediately surprised: "Dad, big brother, why are you here?"

Although she came through in the middle, because the original owner's memory was still retained, and she would see her family almost once or twice a month after coming here, she recognized them at a glance. They were her father and brother in this world.

Her eyes quickly caught sight of the box faintly visible under the curtain of the carriage, and she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.

"Evil daughter!" Jiang's father's eyes widened when he saw her, and he quickly walked up to her and slapped her, "It's all your fault!"

He had lost all his face for decades on this day, and naturally showed no mercy to the culprit who caused all this. He slapped his daughter, who once made him extremely proud, to the ground in an instant, with half of her face raised high and a line of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.

"Ah——" Jiang Ruxue screamed, covered her injured face, and her eyes were immediately filled with tears.

This body was born with a good appearance. Although she looked a little haggard after a few days of detention, she fell to the ground so weak and helpless, and her beautiful eyes turned like this, which unexpectedly had a different kind of pitiful taste.

Someone immediately advised him: "Old man, if you have something to say, please talk nicely. Why do you just hit someone?"

Father Jiang hit him in a fit of anger, and he felt a little regretful. Of course, he didn't regret hitting his shameless daughter, but he was worried that the noise would be too loud and the family scandal would be exposed.

Unfortunately, it was too late for him to regret now. Too many people saw what happened in the palace that day, and Yang Yan didn't specifically issue a gag order. In the past few days, the news of Jiang's affair had already spread all over the capital.

As soon as the man who stood up for justice spoke, someone who knew the situation pulled him back and explained the identity of the woman who was beaten and the reason why she was beaten. He spat in disgust: "She is actually a □□ Alas, she deserves to be beaten to death!"

Everyone present began to point fingers, not only was Jiang Ruxue scolded, but also the father and son of the Jiang family, as her relatives, were said to be very unbearable.

Not only Jiang's father and the eldest son were ashamed, even Jiang Ruxue, who prided herself on being a modern, independent woman and not as fragile as the spoiled young ladies of this era, could not bear it psychologically.

Jiang's father was so ashamed by everyone's remarks that he quickly raised his arms to cover his face with his sleeves, pointed at his daughter on the ground and cursed: "We in the Jiang family don't have a shameless woman like you. From now on, the relationship between you and my daughter will be cut off." , you are never allowed to step into the Jiang family again!"

After saying that, he didn't care about her reaction. He quickly climbed into the car with his son, who also covered his face with his sleeves, and shouted loudly: "Go, get out of here right now!"

However, when he opened the curtain, Jiang Ruxue saw a familiar box with keen eyes. Regardless of the pain on her body and the strange looks from the people around her, she hurriedly jumped on it.

She didn't know where the strength came from, but she pushed away the coachman who was about to drive. She leaned on the carriage and pulled the door curtain, and asked in a sharp voice: "Dad, what is in your car? Yes, Is it my dowry?"

"What's your dowry?" Father Jiang said angrily, "I didn't give you your dowry? Now that you have committed a scandal and been kicked out of the house, do you still expect me to give you the things in the house?"

Jiang Ruxue was speechless for a moment. She was stunned for a moment before she threatened: "The emperor just sent a decree today, asking me to marry the fourth prince. Do you really want to fall out with your daughter at this time?"

The decree was issued not long ago and has not been spread yet. Jiang's father heard it for the first time and immediately hesitated. If what she said was true, maybe the Jiang family would have a chance to turn around.

"Dad, the current emperor is the eldest prince," Young Master Jiang whispered in his ear: "Son, it seems that your majesty and the fourth prince have no friendship. On the contrary, Prince Ning has a lot of troops and power."

Jiang's father thought the same thing. The fourth prince was just his Majesty's brother, but Prince Ning was the hero who supported the emperor's ascension to the throne. He and Prince Ning had a deadly feud. How could there be a chance of a comeback?

After he thought about it, his heart suddenly became cold and he ordered the coachman: "Throw her down here. Don't worry about her safety. From now on, I will treat this daughter as dead!"

"How dare you?" Jiang Ruxue exclaimed in disbelief, and then gave Mr. Jiang next to him a fierce look.

She didn't hear what Young Master Jiang said just now. She only knew that it was him who had slandered her father's ears that caused this result. She really hated him in her heart.

But she didn't know that Young Master Jiang also hated her a lot. It turned out that they were just half-brothers and sisters. Young Master Jiang was the son of his first wife, while Jiang Ruxue was the daughter of her stepmother.

The relationship between the two brothers and sister was very normal before, but now because of what she did, the entire Jiang family will be affected, and it will definitely affect the life of his young daughter. It is strange that he would look good on this sister.

Although the law of Dalin stipulates that a woman’s dowry belongs to the individual, the concept of this era is that all children belong to their parents. If she is divorced and goes home, she will be under the control of her parents, and her property will naturally belong to her parents.

Although what Jiang's father did was cruel, it was also reasonable. No matter how unwilling she was, Jiang Ruxue could only be pushed out of the carriage, and then helplessly watched her father and brother leave her alone.

When the people around her saw this farce, they clapped their hands and applauded, and then pointed at her and insulted her without hiding their voices at all. The words were so ugly that they were almost unbearable.

Jiang Ruxue was in a bad mood at the end of the day and couldn't help but said angrily: "Girl, is it your turn to take care of my own affairs? I scolded you, did I eat your rice or use your cloth? What's the matter?"

I have probably never seen a girl dare to talk back after being accused. The people around her were silent for a while, but soon became excited.

"This guy did such a shameless thing, even if he wasn't ashamed, he was still so confident!"

"How could you have done something like that if you knew you were ashamed?"

"shameless!"

"Swordman!"

"Hit her!"

"Yes! Kill this swordsman!"

Everyone was enraged, and some people started to roll up their sleeves and actually wanted to take action.

Jiang Ruxue saw that something seemed to be wrong, and knew that the nonsense she said "Don't come over" at this time had no effect, so she quickly ran away.

Since she came to this world two years ago, she has been deliberately training her body because she despised the weakness of her original body. Now, facing the threat to her life, she has unleashed her potential and actually ran away in a hurry.

Everyone was stunned for a moment and chased after him, shouting.
