Jiang Yue transmigrated into a novel.
She became the villainous supporting character in a CEO romance novel.
In the original story, she was pure evil—drugging the male lead, abusing the...
Jiang Yue didn't stay idle at home in the afternoon either. After enjoying a delicious lunch, she asked the driver to take her out.
The housekeeper made a token inquiry about the lady's whereabouts, just in case the gentleman called back later and they would have trouble explaining it to him.
"I want to go to the library."
"..."
The butler fell silent, but being a seasoned and experienced man, he quickly regained his composure from the initial shock. "Yes, madam."
Jiang Yue got into the car and leaned against the pillow on the seat, feeling a little sleepy again.
I slept very well last night, but I kept having dreams and felt very tired. When I woke up this morning, it felt like I had been busy all night in my dreams, and my limbs felt numb and weak.
Jiang Yue didn't want to rely on fragmented dreams to learn things she didn't know anymore. Since she couldn't find it online, she decided to check if it was in a book.
It's impossible for a dynasty to leave no trace at all.
Even the most obscure stories will leave clues.
The library was much larger and more expansive than she had imagined, with a dozen or twenty floors. The historical documents section alone was enough to make one dizzy from searching through them.
Jiang Yue still goes out as before, wearing sunglasses and carrying a bag, showing no awareness of the need to wear a mask.
She was recognized as soon as she entered the library.
However, due to the rumors circulating online, even though my opinion of her has changed somewhat, I don't dare to blindly approach her or ask for a photo or autograph.
At most, I would take out my phone and secretly take a few photos, either to keep them to myself or to send to my friends.
The photo changed hands several times before it was soon forwarded to social media platforms.
Jiang Yue's variety show is currently airing, so she is quite popular. She doesn't post much online these days, but whether it's fans or casual gossips, they are still quite interested in seeing her photos.
Even if it's just a passerby sharing it.
There are quite a few comments below.
"This woman loves to wear sunglasses when she goes out. I'm worried that she might secretly roll her eyes at passersby under her sunglasses."
"Good heavens, she looks good even when she rolls her eyes. Okay."
"These sunglasses cost six thousand yuan, sob sob sob, it's so good to be rich."
"Don't you guys think the background of this photo looks familiar? It looks like a library."
"Is she really that passionate about learning? When did she become so motivated?"
"That's right, this is the National Library. When I was preparing for my postgraduate entrance exam, I went there every day to reserve a spot. There are so many books inside."
"I don't believe she loves studying that much; it feels like she's just creating a persona for herself."
+1.
In today's society, who still enjoys reading physical books? Everyone has e-books.
Besides students preparing for postgraduate entrance exams, are there any other people who love libraries as much as this? Of course not.
Even if it's just about creating a persona, doing this much is quite commendable.
"Why does she have to cultivate a scholarly persona?! I think she's most charming when she's arrogant and aloof!"
"Whether it's real or fake, as long as it looks good, that's all that matters."
"You guys are so cynical. You won't allow her to be ambitious? What's wrong with a beautiful girl just liking to study?"
There weren't many photos of Jiang Yue being secretly taken in the library, since she didn't stay downstairs for long and went straight to the floor with the historical documents.
There are very few books about the Jiang Kingdom.
You can't find many books even if you flip through them.
There are an unusually large number of books from other dynasties, densely packed and meticulously detailed, containing a wealth of documents about each emperor, including both historical materials and analyses from later generations.
Jiang Yue took out all of Jiang Guo's books.
She can't finish reading it all in a short time today.
After registering, I borrowed the book.
On her way home, Jiang Yue flipped through a few pages, and it was no different from what was said on the TV program last time. Zhou Fuwei also died very young, three years after her death.
About her life.
A few words.
Princess Mingyi, cause of death unknown.
Her useless crown prince brother successfully ascended the throne and reigned for several decades, even unexpectedly becoming a wise ruler.
Jiang Yue always felt that her younger brother was useless.
She's not very bright, but her temper is just as bad.
As the crown prince of a country, he idled away his days, neglecting his duties.
Jiang Yue was worried at the time, thinking that if the crown prince ascended the throne, the Jiang Kingdom would be destroyed in his hands sooner or later. When that time came, should she put aside her own family for the greater good and seize power?
Unexpected.
The crown prince is quite capable; indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
After finishing reading the imperial chronicles, the car had already driven back to the villa on the hillside.
Jiang Yue asked the housekeeper to carry the pile of books she had borrowed into the house. As soon as she entered the house, she noticed the paper bag on the coffee table.
The housekeeper was about to say to her, "Madam, this is medicine that the family doctor sent over."
After a brief pause, the butler continued, "It was specially prepared for you."
Jiang Yue frowned; she disliked taking medicine the most.
She always felt like she hadn't swallowed it, and that feeling was very unpleasant.
"I'm not sick."
"The gentleman just called to say it was a calming medicine and to remind you to take it on time."
Jiang Yue brushed it off, saying, "We'll see."
She only had a few nightmares, and Zhou Ji was so frightened. It seems that he usually just acts tough in front of her, and his courage is nothing more than that.
As expected, Zhou Ji was a very useless man.
Jiang Yue doesn't plan to take the medicine prescribed by the doctor. She feels that taking the medicine won't help, and she wonders if it will stop her from dreaming about the past.
No, it won't.
And now it seems that the only way to find out what happened after her death is through these ambiguous dreams.
The butler pondered for a moment and didn't say much; he could only do his job.
You must neither disobey your husband nor anger your wife.
That evening, Zhou Ji did not go home for dinner.
Jiang Yue received a call from his assistant in advance: "Madam, the master has a business dinner tonight and asked me to tell you that he won't be home for dinner."
Jiang Yue was already very familiar with Assistant Shen, and after hearing this, she thought to herself, "Is that all?"
Why bother calling her about something so trivial? She doesn't care anyway.
Jiang Yue said in a pretentious tone, "Of course, socializing is more important for men. Let him enjoy his drinks outside without worrying about things at home."
Assistant Shen: "..."
Why do I hear a hint of disdain in your voice?
Jiang Yue had just hung up the phone when she received another call from one of the original owner's fake girlfriends—Ding Ru.
When she first entered this body, the two of them went shopping together.
Ding Ru tentatively asked on the phone, "Yueyue, are you free tonight?"
Before she could answer, Ding Ru said impatiently, "Qin Qin booked a private room at Chao Ye. We haven't gotten together in a long time. Come and join us if you have time."
Ding Ru and her ilk frequently set traps for Jiang Yue, and Jiang Yue always fell into their schemes.
Seeing Jiang Yue doing better and better these days, I couldn't sit still and had to find something to do.
Not to mention that if Jiang Yue hadn't gained status through her son, the Zhou family and the Qin family might have already formed a marriage alliance by now. Equal family backgrounds and social classes are the true meaning of a good match.
Jiang Yue had heard that Chaoye was a place of entertainment and was not very respectable.
She has always been a good baby since she came into this world.
I haven't really enjoyed any illicit services.
She didn't have the chance to enjoy the life of being surrounded by beautiful women when she was a princess, but now it's her turn to enjoy it.
Jiang Yue initially didn't want to go, but after thinking about it, she decided to agree. The princess lazily put on airs: "I've been very busy with work lately. I'll have my assistant check the schedule later. I'll go and see when I have time."
Ding Ru smiled through gritted teeth. What kind of tone was that?!
It made her seem like she was very important.
Ding Ru held back. Jiang Yue probably didn't know that Zhou Ji and the others were also at Chao Ye tonight. The eldest son of the Fu family had just returned to the country a few days ago, and the group of them had been close since childhood.
A welcoming party is essential.
We'll see if Jiang Yue can remain so calm and languid when we run into each other.
