Once the Crown Prince Joins In

After entering the palace and sitting down, Delphinium led the palace servants to bring tea. It was Liu'an tea that Mrs. Jiang liked.

Mrs. Jiang thanked her, but Delphinium hurriedly said she didn't dare, bent down and retreated.

"Madam, you don't look very good. Have you encountered something difficult?" Su Xinyi asked with concern.

Mrs. Jiang smiled bitterly, "What else can happen? Zhongqing's wedding is scheduled for six days later, but the Guangping County Prince's Mansion came again to ask about the wedding date."

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, "Guangping County Prince's Palace knows that the second young master has injured his leg, but still presses for the wedding date?"

"No." Mrs. Jiang's face was full of anger. "If my master hadn't allowed me to act rashly, how could I have let their mother and daughter bully me? This is simply too much bullying."

Su Xinyi really didn't expect that when Jiang Zhongnian broke his leg, they would still press for marriage, so urgently...

"Master Jiang asked Madam to take it easy because the matter has already been brought to heaven. Doesn't Madam still know about it?"

Mrs. Jiang was stunned, "Did he really complain? I thought he lied to me."

Mrs. Jiang felt very sad and happy, and then she looked up at Su Xinyi, "Then the Crown Princess asked the minister's wife to enter the palace today for this reason?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "That's right. Madam can rest easy in the future. Your Majesty will let the two families cancel their engagement."

"Really?" Mrs. Jiang, who had always been calm, now looked a little surprised and couldn't hold back her expression.

"it is true."

Mrs. Jiang's eyes turned red, and she immediately stood up and kowtowed in the direction of Zichen Palace. After she stood up, she said to Su Xinyi: "Your Majesty said so eloquently, the Guangping County Prince's Palace must not disobey the imperial edict this time!"

Before Su Xinyi could speak, she heard Mrs. Jiang say again: "I have already prepared a strategy here, but my master doesn't allow it, otherwise..."

"What did Madam originally plan to do? Release the evidence in her hand as we discussed last time?"

"Not only that, I also discovered something later. Princess Runyi and Mrs. Yan have frequent contacts, which also makes me feel very uncomfortable."

Mrs. Yan?

Isn't that Shang Junyan's sister?

Su Xinyi understood where Mrs. Jiang was concerned. Although Mrs. Jiang didn't like this marriage, at least the two families still had an engagement. However, Yan Qiongsi had frequent contacts with Shang Junyan's sister. Who in the entire capital didn't know about Yan Qiongsi? Like Shang Junyan?

What would people think if they saw this?

Isn't it obvious that the Jiang family is not taken seriously?

How could Mrs. Jiang not be angry?

"I just thought about Princess Runyi humiliating our Jiang family so much. How could I just let it go? I happened to have a letter written by Yan Qiongsi to Mr. Shang. The affectionateness of Princess Runyi in the letter is really amazing."

Hearing what Mrs. Jiang said, Su Xinyi was surprised. She didn't expect Mrs. Jiang to be able to get such things. This shows that she must have put in a lot of effort. For her son, Mrs. Jiang is a really dedicated mother.

"Master Jiang stopped Madam because once the letter spread, Princess Runyi's reputation would be tarnished. Originally, the Jiang family was sympathetic to this matter, but once this incident came out, everyone in the capital would inevitably sympathize with Princess Runyi more, and then they would be more sympathetic to Jiang. Family is not a good thing, and there is a queen in the palace. Madam, Master Jiang is right to do this."

Mrs. Jiang also knew that, so after her husband stopped her, she did not force it. After all, she was unwilling to do so.

"Princess, do you think there is any royal law in this world? How can a villain like Yan Qiongsi live so arrogantly?"

"Madam, aren't you waiting until the clouds clear to see the moonlight? Your Majesty already knew this and told me to cancel the engagement between the two families. I thought that Mr. Jiang was an official in the court, and his official reputation was the most important, so I asked to see the queen. Madam, I hope the Queen can come forward to persuade the Princess of Guangping County to peacefully cancel the engagement with your mansion. Wouldn’t it be better if you are good to me and everyone is good?”

Mrs. Jiang's eyes lit up, "Is the Queen willing?"

It would be best if the Queen was willing to come forward.

Mrs. Jiang, the prince of Guangping County, really didn't take it seriously, but the queen behind them was feared.

Su Xinyi was now on the same boat with the Queen. It was also a good thing for her that the Queen had a good reputation, so she said to Mrs. Jiang: "The Queen is always fair in doing things. Although she has always been partial to Princess Runyi, in the face of such important matters, she still has to be fair. It depends on the severity." At this point, he smiled slightly and said, "Madam, let me tell you the truth. No matter how much I feel sorry for Princess Runyi, can the princess hold more weight in my heart than Prince Rong?"

Mrs. Jiang listened to the Crown Princess with ease, but she knew that the Crown Princess must have bothered to make the Queen come forward.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Jiang smiled at the Crown Princess and said, "The Crown Princess's deep affection and friendship cannot be repaid. If you have anything to do in the future, just give me your instructions."

"Madam, if you say this, it makes me feel ashamed. I can't turn a blind eye when it comes to public or private matters. Madam and I are destined, and she has helped me several times, so it is appropriate to lend a hand."

"If the Crown Princess said this, I would have no choice but to respond shamelessly." Mrs. Jiang said with a smile.

"The Queen has come forward to handle this matter. Mrs. Jiang should understand that at least on the surface, the two families are happily canceling their engagement and cannot hurt the Queen's face. As for other grievances, we can only wait and deal with it."

Mrs. Jiang nodded, "What the Crown Princess said is true. Besides, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, and I can afford to wait."

"Yes, a gentleman's revenge is not temporary. Princess Guangping's behavior is domineering. It cannot last long. No matter how deep the family relationship is, it will disappear. We will wait and see." Su Xinyi had experienced the disgusting methods of these two mothers and daughters in her previous life.

However, in this life, she avoided Shang Junyan's trap in time. Even so, Yan Qiongsi still refused to let her go. That is to say, she thought about it and no longer restrained herself in doing things. If she dared to attack, she would directly fight back. Going back made them dare not act rashly.

It's just that the Jiang family is unlucky and has followed her old path. The only good thing is that neither Mrs. Jiang nor Mr. Jiang is a person who compromises.

"That's what the Crown Princess said." Mrs. Jiang was in a good mood at the moment. No matter how bad she was when she came, she was so relaxed when she left.

The big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

Mrs. Jiang's side, Su Xinyi, was quite entertaining, and they understood each other tacitly.

But something went wrong on the Queen's side. The Princess of Guangping County took her daughter into the underground palace. After hearing the Queen's words, her expression changed on the spot.

"Mother, how could this be? You were the one who asked Jones to get married earlier, and now you are the one who asked her to break off the engagement. What on earth do you want our mother and daughter to do to make us happy?" Princess Guangping said with an angry look on her face.

The queen's face darkened slightly when she heard her sister's questioning tone.

She has been very tolerant to her sister for so many years, but she didn't expect that she didn't even understand the rules, so she had the courage to do such a thing.

The queen turned to look at Yan Jones, "Jones, what do you think?"

Yan Qiongsi raised his head after hearing this, met the queen's eyes and smiled, "Aunt, I like this marriage very much and don't want to break it off."

The queen was disappointed, and they didn't think about it, why did he let them cancel the engagement?

Would you do such a thing for no reason?

She is a queen, who else can make her lower her head and break up her niece's marriage?

It wasn't until this moment that the queen discovered that her sister and niece, whom she had always thought had the same heart as her, might not be what she thought.

Thinking of what Su Xinyi had said again, his eyes slowly changed.

"How did this marriage come about? I already know it. You calculated the marriage with the Jiang family in such a disgraceful way. Do you think that the Jiang family is easy to bully and will get what you want?" The queen directly handed over the fig leaf. Open it up, not wanting to cover it up for them anymore.

The Princess of Guangping County's eyes flashed, and she immediately said loudly: "Sister, what are you talking about? What do you mean by a calculated marriage? To say that I lost money to Qiong Si that day, if Qiong Si hadn't bumped into me, what would have happened to the Second Young Master Jiang? …”

"That's enough!" The Queen said with a sullen face, "Do you think Mrs. Jiang has no evidence? Today I mentioned this marriage to you, do you think it was my intention?"

Yan Qiongsi's eyes finally changed at this time, her face turned slightly pale, and she raised her head and looked at the queen, "Aunt, what do you want me to do? Shang Junyan, you don't allow me to marry, and the Jiang family's marriage is not possible. Is it possible that it will come true? Are you going to force me to death?"

The queen was so angry that she almost couldn't breathe. What does it mean to force her to death?

Her feelings were in her heart, and he was the one who forced her to death?

The queen's heart never felt colder than at this moment. She thought about them, was considerate, protected, and cared about them. But what was the result?

I didn't get any gratitude, but I got a lot of resentment.

The queen let go of her last bit of intolerance and guilt in an instant. Whatever she should do or shouldn't do, she did everything for them. Since they treated her like this, don't blame her.

"What's going on with the merchant's marriage? Who knows better than you?" The queen looked at Yan Qiongsi indifferently, "Shang Junyan avoided you and was not willing to get engaged to you at all. It was King Rong who came forward in person. Even if he threatens his future, he refuses to let go, don’t you know this?”

The queen looked at Yan Qiongsi's face and her face became very ugly at that moment, and she couldn't bear it, but she suppressed it and stopped looking at her. Instead, she continued: "Not to mention the Jiang family's marriage, you are going after Shang." Jun Yan's reputation has not been established for many years. How can the Jiang family, which has been a scholarly family for generations, look up to you? I have asked people to inquire, and Mrs. Jiang has obtained the evidence that you bribed the girl. Although the girl who took the medicine is dead, She also has a family, and her family is a descendant of the Jiang family. Can her arm be twisted past her thigh?"

The queen became more and more angry as she spoke. Seeing the two princesses of Guangping County, mother and daughter, they were angry and scolded: "Don't say this. Then Jiang Shangshu filed a complaint in front of your majesty, begging your majesty to seek justice for his son. Your majesty will leave it to you now." To save face, I asked you to take the initiative to cancel the engagement, just to save the face of both families. If you insist on refusing, His Majesty will order the personal guards to investigate the matter thoroughly. Do you dare to tell me that this matter can withstand investigation? "

"Sister...Jones finally got this good marriage, so you can't deal with it for her..."

"I'm here to deal with you. Whoever is here to deal with me? Concubine Li is watching with eager eyes. Do you think I didn't die fast enough and King Rong didn't fall to the ground fast enough?"

The Queen's remaining patience was defeated by the last game of the Princess of Guangping County. At this point, she actually wanted to let her go to His Majesty.

Is this something that can be dealt with?

If His Majesty asked her to do it, she would still be 30% sure, but His Majesty left the matter to Su Xinyi. This was a warning to her by Knocking on the Mountain Zhenhu!

The queen felt very tired, and suddenly she didn't want to waste any more time.

When Yan Qiongsi saw it, she felt that something was very wrong. She lowered her head and thought for a moment, then immediately said: "Aunt, this matter has put you in a difficult position. If there was no other way, my mother would not do such a thing. She is afraid of me. If you don't marry well, you won't be able to hold your head high in the future. Auntie, please don't be angry, we will just cancel the engagement."

The queen could no longer tell whether Yan Qiongsi's words were true or false, and she didn't want to speculate. She didn't look at her, and just said: "This marriage must be dignified even if you break off the engagement. This is the last time I will protect you. Qiongsi, think twice before doing anything in the future. The Jiang family will not make things difficult for you. The marriage was canceled this morning. It is good for you all. Go back."

After the queen finished speaking, she stood up. She really didn't want to continue talking to them.

"Aunt!" Yan Qiongsi stood up immediately, "Aunt, do you ignore me?"

The queen paused.

The princess of Guangping County also noticed something was wrong at this time and immediately echoed, "Sister, what are you going to do? You really don't care about me and Qiongsi? How can this be done? The princess is still at home and has not been reinstated, so she has resigned. Regarding the Jiang family's marriage, what kind of family can she find in the future? If you don't care about it anymore, what will Jones do?"

The queen closed her eyes hard, then opened them again, and turned her head to look at them, "When you were doing things for the Jiang family, did you ever think that this day would happen? Were you ever afraid at that time?"

"Sister, you are here, aren't you?"

"Yes, I am the queen, and I have been protecting you all these years, but what if I, the queen, fall because of you?" The queen said angrily, "Have you ever thought about how King Rong and I will get along?"

"How could it happen, sister, you are so powerful, such a thing would never happen." The princess of Guangping County was finally afraid. She knew that her sister was really angry this time.

The queen turned back and did not look at them again. She only said one sentence, "Your Majesty did not leave this matter to me this time. Do you understand?"

The princess of Guangping County opened her mouth and watched the queen flinging her sleeves and leaving.

She turned her head and looked at her daughter, her face livid, "How could this happen? Your Majesty has always asked the Queen to take care of these matters. If she doesn't let the Queen handle it, could it be that she has left it to Concubine Li? If this is the case, the marriage must be canceled immediately, let's go , leave the palace."

Yan Qiongsi grabbed her mother and said, "It can't be Concubine Li. If it were Concubine Li, how could my aunt let us cancel our engagement in harmony with the Jiang family?"

"Not Concubine Li? Who could it be?" The Princess of Guangping County thought about the other concubines in the harem, and there was no one whom His Majesty could value so highly.
