The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

Concubine Chen Gui smiled and glanced at Jiang Ruan: "Such a well-behaved child, I don't know if I have the blessing to let her be my daughter-in-law."

Silence, the silence of the house.

Jiang Susu at the bottom turned pale when she heard Concubine Chen's words, even her lips were white, her whole body was on the verge of falling, and she almost fell backwards. Thanks to Xia Yan who was quietly supporting him, otherwise something unexpected would happen.

The faces of the Zhao family also froze, what does Concubine Chen Gui mean by this?

"What does Concubine Ai mean..." the emperor asked.

"Xiao Ba is now at the age to get married, but Miss Jiang is still young, so you can make an appointment first, and when she is ready, she will enter Xiao Ba's house as the head of the house, Xiao Ba's official concubine."

If it was still silent just now, at this moment, only the sound of everyone gasping for air could be heard.

It was the concubine.

Although Jiang Quan's status is not low, Jiang Ruan is still a bit high as the eighth prince's concubine. If it's a side concubine, it's almost the same. From Concubine Chen Guicai's words just now, everyone thought that she wanted Jiang Ruan to be a concubine in the past, but who knew that she wanted Jiang Ruan to be a concubine when she came. Now anyone with a little discernment knows that the eighth prince might be the future heir apparent, the future emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, wouldn't Jiang Ruan become the empress? This is a lucrative business.

Jiang Quan's expression was complicated. He had always wanted to win over the relationship with Ye Li. In order to make the relationship more stable, it would be best to marry a daughter. Now Concubine Chen Guifei revealed the secret desire in his heart with a single word, so naturally he couldn't ask for it, but how could that person be Jiang Ruan? Why not Jiang Susu?

Jiang Xinzhi clenched his fists fiercely. He never thought that his good intentions would lead to the current situation. Although he doesn't like Xiao Shao very much, he doesn't like Ye Li even more. Ye Li is the Tian family no matter what, what is the Tian family, there are groups of wives and concubines, the intrigue in the backyard is more dangerous than the court, how could he let Jiang Ruan go to such a place? Why did Chen Guifei drag Jiang Ruan into the water? Wouldn't it be better if it was Jiang Susu. Jiang Quan is happy, why is Jiang Ruan the best of both worlds. Jiang Xinzhi made up his mind, if the emperor agrees, even if he fights the decree with all his meritorious deeds, Jiang Ruan will be free.

Xiao Shao frowned when he heard Concubine Chen's request, his beautiful eyes glowed coldly, like a fine black gemstone, and his expression was not happy.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Ruan, Jiang Ruan lowered his head slightly, unable to see his expression clearly, Xiao Shao's heart moved, no matter what Jiang Ruan said, she was just a twelve-year-old girl. She hated Ye Li so much, although she didn't know why, she would definitely not want to marry Ye Li. Concubine Chen Gui was favored in front of the emperor, and if the emperor agreed, Jiang Ruan would never resist the order.

His beautiful brows were tightly frowned, but in fact, there was nothing he could do, if he went up to the emperor and told the emperor that he wanted to marry Jiang Ruan, he would be able to avoid Jiang Ruan's fate of marrying Ye Li. It's just that Jiang Ruan may not want to marry him. Xiao Shao took over Jinyiwei, and he has never seen any dirty things in the high-end mansion on weekdays. He understands what marriage means to a woman. With his temperament, he does not intend to marry in this life. Jiang Ruan is his savior, even though this savior is only twelve years old now, if she is in danger, Xiao Shao will definitely abide by it At the beginning, I swore to help.

Just changing from the Eighth Prince's Mansion to King Jinying's Mansion, is Jiang Ruan really willing?

Concubine Shu suddenly burst out laughing with a "puchi": "Sister, why are you messing around with mandarin ducks? Not to mention whether the Eighth Highness knows about it, the Miss Jiang in front of you is also the daughter of Jiang Shangshu's heart, why doesn't my sister know?" Ask, would Miss Jiang be willing to marry the Eighth Highness?"

Such a tit-for-tat confrontation, Concubine Chen Guifei did not wrinkle her brows, she turned to look at Jiang Ruan, her tone became softer and more amiable: "I forgot, Miss Jiang, can you see my Xiaoba?"

This question is kind and playful, it seems to be a joke of an ordinary woman from an ordinary family, but Jiang Ruan sneered silently in her heart, Chen Guifei's question is good, what can she say, if she can't say it well, then she looks down on Ye Li, Not to mention that in front of so many people, even the emperor would be the first to spare her. It can be said that I like it, isn't that just jumping into the fire pit helplessly?

Everyone held their breath, waiting to hear Jiang Ruan's answer. The female family members were naturally indignant, and the male family members such as Gu Yi and Jiang Xin could only rush forward and take Jiang Ruan away from this right and wrong place immediately. Dong Yinger and Zhao Jin secretly sweated for Jiang Ruan. For them, they naturally knew that Jiang Ruan had no intention of marrying into the Tian family. Zhao Guang's heart was shaken. For the first time, the granddaughter Fang recognized was about to be involved in this struggle for succession. For the first time, Zhao Guang felt his incompetence. He didn't dare to bet the entire General's Mansion to help Jiang Ruan resist the decree, even though his heart was bleeding at this moment. Su Shi, who was following his wife at the matron table, almost tore the handkerchief in his hand, and his eyes were full of pain.

Jiang Ruan seemed to be very embarrassed, but he didn't answer immediately: "This..."

She lowered her head even deeper, but she was counting quietly in her heart.

Concubine Chen Guifei's smile deepened: "You are such a shy child, Your Majesty, I see this is a very good marriage, I wonder if your Majesty would like to be a month old? Find a caring person for Xiao Ba."

The emperor looked at it with a relaxed expression, and he didn't want to stop him.

Xiao Shao's expression was even colder, he only waited for a moment, put down the teacup with one hand, and was about to stand up and propose to the emperor. Unexpectedly, Fang was about to get up when he heard a cold voice: "Aijia is unwilling."

Jiang Ruan counted to three in his heart, and when he heard the words, he curled his lips into a smile, slowly raised his head, and said firmly following the man's words: "I don't want to go back to the imperial concubine."

The first one to refuse was actually the Empress Dowager Yide.

Ye Li, who had always seemed to stay out of the matter, paused, and the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth froze for a moment. The rest of the people were puzzled, but Jiang Xinzhi was secretly relieved. Even the emperor would not easily refute Empress Dowager Yide's words. Even if Concubine Chen is favored again, the emperor will never defy Empress Dowager Yide for her sake.

Chen Guifei has always been in the palace smoothly, and there is no conflict of interest with Empress Dowager Yide on weekdays. In addition, she has always been gentle and amiable in the palace, everyone loves her. Except for the queen, Empress Dowager Yide is not close to these concubines on weekdays, so they have been living in peace. Who would have thought that today, it was actually the most honorable woman of the Great Jin Dynasty who ruthlessly refuted her suggestion in front of civil and military officials and their families. It's just the Empress Dowager Yide, but Jiang Ruan actually refused, what's the matter with her?

With a smile on the corner of Chen Guifei's lips, she re-examined Jiang Ruan. At first, she saw that Jiang Ruan was indeed advancing and retreating properly, and her behavior was not like that of an unfavored Miss Shangshufu. In addition to Ye Li's evaluation of her, she only thinks that Jiang Ruan is a smart girl. But now it seems that she is not only smart, but also bold. Facing Concubine Chen's smiling gaze, Jiang Ruan also smiled and looked at her, her smile was humble and calm, as if she contained some other emotion. Concubine Chen's movements froze slightly. In the whole world, this was the first time she met such a gaze.
