Chapter 19 The Little Queen's Aunt is Weak and Easy to Control

Xiao Mocheng appeared in the front yard wearing a python robe, and all the servants in the yard knelt down to salute him.

"Your servants and servants pay their respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Everyone, get up!" Xiao Mocheng had a smile on his lips, and he looked very gentle and elegant.

Jiang Qinian and Pei hurried forward, "Your humble servant and your wife respectfully welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Xiao Mocheng stepped forward and gave them a false helping hand, his voice as gentle as jade, "Prime Minister Jiang, Madam Prime Minister, please don't be so polite!"

He came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today for a purpose.

Today is the day when the little imperial aunt returns home.

He had heard from the servants in the palace that his little aunt was a rare beauty.

Getting a glimpse of her beauty is secondary. The most important thing is what does he want to do with this imperial aunt?

According to Jiang Yunyao's description, this little imperial aunt has a weak personality and should be easy to control.

He might be able to bribe the little imperial aunt, and when she finds the "amulet" in the little imperial uncle's hand, he can then... kill her to silence her.

Everything is done without anyone noticing.

Just when Xiao Mocheng was full of calculations, he suddenly saw a woman with outstanding appearance slowly walking out of the hall.

She looked radiant as she walked, showing off her graceful figure...

Xiao Mocheng's eyes were wide open.

Is this the little imperial aunt?

Why is it different from what Jiang Yunyao said!

At the reminder of the servant beside him, Xiao Mocheng quickly bowed and said, "Nephew greets the Imperial Aunt."

Since Jiang Ruo stepped out of the hall, he has been secretly observing every move of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

She naturally did not miss the calculation in Xiao Mocheng's brows and the surprised look in his eyes.

Therefore, when Xiao Mocheng saluted, Jiang Ruo put on the attitude of an elder and said in a cold voice, "Your Highness, there is no need to be so polite!"

Xiao Chengjin, ah Xiao Chengjin, you can just lie in bed and do nothing. It’s a pity for me, the newly married princess, to become the poor little thing in the calculations of these people.

Xiao Mocheng: “…?”

Such calmness and composure seemed even more inconsistent with what Jiang Yunyao said.

Xiao Mocheng slowly lowered his gaze to that delicate face...

When he met those sparkling peach blossom eyes, he was slightly distracted for a moment.

Jiang Qinian looked at Jiang Ruo's calm appearance and thought to himself: This useless daughter who lives in the backyard all day must be a little terrified to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

But why does she look so relaxed and at ease?

Pei cursed in her heart: Shameless vixen, how dare you seduce His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

In just a few days, this little bitch has grown up to be so beautiful and charming, even tending to surpass her daughter Yao'er.

After Jiang Yunyao knew that Xiao Mocheng had come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she quickly returned to her boudoir, changed into a pink dress, and carefully put on her makeup again.

She was secretly delighted, thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be here to see her.

But when she ran to the front yard, she happened to see Xiao Mocheng staring at Jiang Ruo.

Jiang Yunyao was instantly furious.

This vixen, even though she has already married His Royal Highness Prince An, still dares to seduce the Crown Prince so blatantly.

She suddenly stopped and hid aside to secretly observe Xiao Mocheng's facial expression.

When Jiang Yunyao saw the amazement in Xiao Mocheng's eyes, she suddenly became anxious...

She quickened her pace and came in front of Xiao Mocheng, pretending to be shy like a little girl, "Yao'er greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Jiang Yunyao's voice brought Xiao Mocheng back to his senses.

Xiao Mocheng covered his lips and coughed lightly to cover up his loss of composure, "Second Miss Jiang, please don't be polite!"

Jiang Yunyao: “…?”

How did she become Miss Jiang Er?

Doesn’t he like to call himself Yaoer the most?

Therefore, this move was to avoid suspicion in front of Jiang Ruo.

Although Jiang Yunyao was very angry, she still put on a gentle and virtuous appearance, "I was just preparing lunch for Princess An in the kitchen, so I came a little late!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mocheng smiled in appreciation, but the next moment, the smile froze at the corner of his lips.

Jiang Ruo glanced at Jiang Yunyao's newly changed clothes and newly applied makeup, and the corners of her lips curled up, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "Sister, your clothes and makeup look good today."

Are you going to the kitchen?

Are you kidding me?

Everyone instantly understood the implication of Jiang Ruo's words and unconsciously turned their gaze to Jiang Yunyao.

Jiang Yunyao felt a little embarrassed after being hinted at by Jiang Ruo. She clenched her hands unconsciously and hated Jiang Ruo in her heart.

For this reason, Jiang Qinian felt a little unhappy, and there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Ruo.

In front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he openly and covertly mocked his own sister.

Doesn't she know that when one prospers, all prosper, and when one suffers, all suffer?

Xiao Mo glanced at Jiang Ruo, who was elegant and sharp-tongued, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

The little imperial aunt's carefree and unrestrained demeanor was quite different from those shy and timid noble ladies.

Jiang Ruo was too lazy to pay attention to them. She turned sideways and said coldly to Jiang Qinian, "Father, I still have to go back to take care of the prince, so I will return to the palace first."

As he turned around, he nodded to Xiao Mocheng.

Xiao Mocheng originally came here for Jiang Ruo, and after seeing Jiang Ruo turn around and leave, he also found an excuse.

"Uh, I suddenly remembered that I still have some unfinished business..."

Jiang Qinian and Pei exchanged a glance, then leaned forward slightly. "Your humble servant, your wife, and your daughter respectfully bid farewell to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After a group of people left in a mighty manner, the front yard of the Prime Minister's Mansion became empty in an instant.

Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion.

After several people watched the carriage from Prince An's Mansion leave, Xiao Mocheng also got on the sedan chair and left.

Jiang Yunyao looked at the departing sedan chair and stomped her feet in anger.

She was now extremely grateful that Jiang Ruo had married into Prince An's mansion to bring good luck.

Otherwise, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be seduced away by her sooner or later.

While Xiao Mocheng was sitting in the sedan chair and resting his eyes, he was also thinking about how to capture Jiang Ruo.

He decided to change his strategy. The little imperial uncle was in a very bad condition now. If the little imperial uncle passed away one day, the little imperial aunt might face the fate of being buried alive with him.

If by then, I could become the little aunt's support, would she work for me wholeheartedly?

Thinking of this, a determined smile appeared on Xiao Mocheng's face.

Prince An's Mansion.

Jiang Ruo changed out of her court attire and strolled to Xiao Chengjin's yard.

The sun is shining and the breeze is not dry.

"Go, carry the prince out to bask in the sun."

"Go find some more picture books. I want to tell the prince a story."

Steward Lin held his forehead helplessly and quickly ordered: "Go buy the picture book, and you two carry the prince out."

The originally quiet courtyard suddenly became lively.

Xiao Chengjin, who was carried out, roared in his heart: This prince doesn’t want to bask in the sun anymore!!!

Jiang Ruo sat on a stool beside the couch, stretched out her fingers to pinch Xiao Chengjin's cheek, and whispered, "Ever since entering Prince An's Mansion, I have been both a father and a mother."

"The most important thing is that there are wolves all around me outside. It's really hard for me."

Xiao Chengjin: Could it be... that this woman was wronged when she returned home?
