Chapter 159 The daughter of the real person must be your legal wife

Jiang Qinian naturally did not miss the change in Jiang Yunyao's expression.

Taking this opportunity, he revealed his true purpose.

"Yao'er, you must understand the principle that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer."

"The fact that the Emperor is so wary of Xiao Chengjin shows that the power behind him cannot be underestimated."

"Even if I sever my father-daughter relationship with Jiang Ruo, she is still a member of our Jiang family."

"The fact that Jiang Ruo was able to get close to Xiao Chengjin shows that she has extraordinary abilities."

"So, during your time in Jizhou, try not to provoke them."

"If they have any movements, you must send a letter to your father, understand?"

After hearing these words, Jiang Yunyao finally understood Jiang Qinian's intention of asking her to stay in Jizhou.

It turns out that to her father, she is just a... chess piece.

Jiang Yunyao was unwilling to accept this fact. She asked dissatisfiedly, "Daddy, why?"

Jiang Qinian snorted coldly and replied without hesitation: "Because Jiang Ruo is the... legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

In the past, you always regarded yourself as the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but in fact you were just a concubine's daughter.

Now, it's time to wake up.

Humph! A concubine's daughter is not presentable.

Jiang Yunyao's face turned pale after being shocked by Jiang Qinian's words.

Jiang Ruo is the legitimate daughter?

The implication is that she is a concubine's daughter.

Why is her father so cruel?

Jiang Qinian looked at Jiang Yunyao's vulnerable appearance with cold eyes and sneered, "Do you know how you are inferior to Jiang Ruo?"

Jiang Yunyao shook her head subconsciously.

Jiang Qinian sighed slightly, "Yao'er, you are too eager for quick success."

"How about this! Before certain things are settled, Daddy will send someone to the Beiyu Dynasty to look for the Disguise Pill."

"Then you can return to the capital under another identity."

Jiang Yunyao was confused by Jiang Qinian's tricks.

"Daddy, can we really find the Disguise Pill?"

Jiang Qinian looked at Jiang Yunyao's anxious expression and said calmly, "Yao'er, how could Daddy lie to you?"

The room suddenly became quiet, and the father and daughter were immersed in their own imaginary world.

On the roof.

Jiang Ruo, who was hiding on the roof, was shocked when he heard the three words "disguise pill".

What?

There are disguise pills in this world?

Looking at Jiang Ruo's money-obsessed look, Xiao Chengjin knew that she believed it.

He leaned close to Jiang Ruo's ear and said in a low voice, "Ruo Ruo, that old man is a liar."

After hearing this, Jiang Ruo rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction.

You are really something. You will do anything to deceive your daughter!

You only have this one child, so cherish him!

Oh, by the way, from what this old man said, he wants to rely on her in the future.

Hehe! I hope you can live to see that time!

If you rush to seek death, no one will stop you.

Xiao Chengjin wiped the sweat from Jiang Ruo's forehead with his sleeve and said aggrievedly, "Ruo Ruo, let's go back!"

"Hehe! This roof is a bit hot." Jiang Ruo said, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from Xiao Chengjin's cheek.

It's such a commotion, but it really does wrong to the bad man.

The two of them jumped off the roof hand in hand and walked towards the back door of the government office.

The bailiff guarding the back door of the government office looked at the two people coming hand in hand, quickly adjusted his facial expression, and tried to smile.

The lord has already instructed that you can provoke anyone except this Mr. Xiao.

Therefore, in Jizhou, Master Xiao is the sky.

After Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo arrived at the back door, the yamen runner said in a servile manner, "Master Xiao, Madam Xiao, take care."

Xiao Chengjin snorted proudly and whispered to Jiang Ruo, "Ruoruo, let's go this way."

The ignored yamen runner: "......"

This Mr. Xiao seems a bit henpecked.

Shortly after Jiang Ruo and Xiao Chengjin left, Mr. and Mrs. Zhou formally met with Jiang Qinian.

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou looked at Jiang Qinian's swollen face and said indignantly, "These unruly people are simply unreasonable."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qinian deliberately put on an appearance of magnanimity and tolerance.

"It was the Prime Minister who lost the relief grain first. The people were angry and took action. It's understandable."

Mrs. Zhou saw her chance and wiped her tears with her handkerchief, saying, "Alas, I don't know who did this wicked thing to empty all the grain from our granary."

"What? Such a thing actually happened?" After Jiang Qinian said this in a shocked tone, a trace of doubt arose in his heart.

The Prime Minister's Mansion was robbed, the national treasury was robbed, and now the same thing is happening in Jizhou...

Jingcheng, Jizhou...

During this period, the only people who came to Jizhou from the capital were Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo?

Could it be that they did it?

Not likely.

After all, being able to move so many things without leaving any trace overnight is something that not everyone can do.

Unless, they possess some kind of...secret technique.

Mr. Zhou looked at Jiang Qinian who was lost in thought, and a plan came to his mind.

Today, I must invite the Prime Minister's relatives back to the mansion no matter what.

Now that I think about it, the grain warehouse being stolen was not such a bad thing.

The reason his son met the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion was because of the theft in the granary.

So, fortune and misfortune are interdependent.

"Master Prime Minister, it's not convenient for you to live in the government office. Why don't you go to the Zhou Mansion to recuperate?"

"It's also a good opportunity to discuss the marriage of the two children." After saying this guiltily, Mr. Zhou winked at Zhou Zexuan.

Zhou Zexuan received a hint from Mr. Zhou's eyes and knelt on the ground with a plop.

"I beg my father-in-law to approve my son-in-law's marriage to Yao'er. I, Zhou Zexuan, swear to heaven that I will treat Yao'er well for the rest of my life."

Jiang Yunyao was furious when she saw the shameless Zhou family members.

Just as she was about to explode, she received a warning look from Jiang Qinian.

Jiang Qinian glared at Zhou Zexuan and said in a sharp tone, "I have only one request. My daughter must be your legal wife. Do you understand?"

Zhou Zexuan was both frightened and secretly delighted when he heard this.

He clasped his fists and bowed, "Thank you, father-in-law, for your help." After saying that, he stood up and stood aside.

Mr. Zhou was afraid of unnecessary complications, so he stepped forward and said with a smile, "How about this! While the Prime Minister's relatives are in Jizhou, let them get married soon."

"Okay, let's do as my in-laws say!" Jiang Qinian did not object and nodded in agreement.

Only by getting married can it be legitimate.

As for those troublesome things, let the Zhou family solve them themselves!

With the Prime Minister's Mansion as their backing, I don't think the Zhou family would dare to bully Yao'er.
