In the ten-mile long street, with joy and happiness, Jiang Zhaoying married into the Song Marquis Mansion.
But who knew that her husband, Song Chengyu, had died on the wedding bed?
She ...
Chapter 88
Missing
This sudden scene caught Yang Pianpian's eyes at once. Jiang Zhaoying looked at Princess Tingyun's behavior with some surprise, feeling a little pain in her heart. She knew that the princess must have no other choice, so she chose such a bold move.
Turn your head.
She looked at Miss Yang, and just as she had said before, she had already had this plan in mind, so she didn't feel uncomfortable when seeing it. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she turned and walked towards the door.
Jiang Zhaoying hurriedly followed him out, and the two of them went out of the door one after the other and ran towards Jiang Zhiyu and the others.
Being tightly hugged by Princess Tingyun, Jiang Zhiyu's back was stiff, his hands were open, and he looked a little helpless.
He wanted to push her away, but hearing her crying voice and feeling her trembling body, Jiang Zhiyu's brows softened unconsciously.
He even felt that life was difficult for women in the world, and marrying into a good family might be Princess Tingyun's only way out.
Look up.
When Jiang Zhiyu met Yang Pianpian's eyes, he became even more panicked.
She opened her mouth to explain, but felt unable to. After all, her sister had said that if Princess Tingyun was willing, she would be willing to make a move and marry Princess Tingyun.
"Princess."
Jiang Zhaoying stepped forward and patted Princess Tingyun gently.
Tingyun hurriedly took a step back. Seeing Yang Pianpian's inquiring eyes, Tingyun's face suddenly turned pale. She choked and trembled with embarrassment and grievance.
"I...I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Turn around dejectedly and move forward with a broken heart.
Yang Pianpian raised her eyes and said softly.
"etc."
Come forward.
She took Princess Tingyun's hand.
"Come up and sit down. I have something to say."
Tingyun suddenly raised his head, looked at Yang Pianpian, then at Jiang Zhiyu, his eyes filled with panic, as if he was more certain of something. He struggled, pushed Yang Pianpian away, turned around and ran away.
"Princess..."
Yang Pianpian wanted to chase after him, but Jiang Zhiyu stopped her.
"Forget it."
At the moment, she didn't look like someone who would listen to any explanation. As they watched Tingyun's figure gradually disappear into the distance, everyone sighed.
Yang Pianpian looked at Jiang Zhaoying and said a little frustrated.
"Do I look fierce? I just want to tell Princess Tingyun that I don't mind her marrying Young Master Jiang."
Pursing her lips, Yang Pianpian told everything.
"I have discussed it with your brother in detail. He said that as long as you have no objection, I will go back tomorrow to discuss the marriage. After we get married, if I get pregnant, if Princess Tingyun is willing, I will bring her into the mansion as a co-wife."
"It's not that I want to monopolize the position of the legal wife, but your brother said that Princess Tingyun was about to die, and it is not easy for her to come back to life now. In addition, she is in poor health and has a heart disease. I am afraid that she will never have children in this life. So... we think it is good to let her live a happy life, and it is better for me to do the housekeeper work."
"And I will treat Miss Qiangwei in the mansion well as well. In addition, I will find two more kind-hearted girls to bring into the mansion, and we can all live together in harmony and have children together. Of course, my rules are also very strict. Anyone who is disobedient, unruly, or hurtful will be driven away without mercy."
After saying all of this in one breath, Yang Pianpian felt much more open and comfortable.
That's right.
Everything was initiated by her. She was the one who asked Jiang Zhiyu out and gave him the gift. But she really liked Jiang Zhiyu. She fell in love with him at first sight and didn't want to let him go.
yesterday.
Jiang Zhiyu asked her out and the two talked for a long time. After the talk, Yang Pianpian was not scared by the Jiang family, but liked Jiang Zhiyu even more.
Before separation.
They agreed that if both of them were willing, they would go out, and if they could meet each other before dark, they would not be afraid of the road ahead and would definitely be together...
Just didn't expect it.
They had been out for less than half an hour when they ran into him.
That moment.
The smile on Jiang Zhiyu's face is very charming, and the shyness on Yang Pianpian's face is also very touching.
The affection between them was the most beautiful promise in the world. They chatted, strolled and played, and before they knew it, they had been playing till now.
It’s just a pity for Princess Tingyun. She really likes Zhiyu, so she would be willing to live in peace with them for Zhiyu, right?
"I still think that we should go find Princess Tingyun, explain the situation clearly, and let her make her own choice. It's better than keeping her in suspense and making her feel uncomfortable."
Jiang Zhaoying looked at her brother, and Jiang Zhiyu thought about it and nodded.
"Okay, let's go find her."
Since she was saved, it would be nice to let her live a peaceful life. What's more, if she entered the palace, something might really happen to her.
Then.
The group of three then headed towards the Prince's Mansion.
In the secret room.
The prince was full of majesty and was discussing important matters with his staff. When he heard Shen Liuguang say that Jiang Zhaoying and others had arrived, the prince looked at Xu Zhiyan coldly.
Shen Liuguang hurriedly explained.
"I'm here to look for Princess Tingyun."
Xu Zhiyan suddenly felt the oppression on his body relieved. Just when everyone thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to continue discussing things, they saw His Royal Highness stand up and leave them and walk towards the door.
The staff looked at each other, anger flowing in their hearts.
What is going on with Jiang Zhaoying? Every time they discuss an important moment, she appears and the prince leaves.
Everyone's face sank.
Tacit understanding.
Everyone felt that if there was a candidate for the Crown Princess in the future, they must choose a suitable one who would not always interrupt them from doing their work...
Xu Zhiyan also stood up and followed him out. When they were almost at Pushe, the prince turned his head and frowned.
"What are you doing here?"
Xu Zhiyan was slightly stunned.
He had previously said that he would send his junior sister back, and now that his junior sister has come, isn't it normal to say hello?
"Then I will be busy for a while?"
The long fingers in Xu Zhiyan's sleeves were clenched slightly, and there was a lot of bitterness in his voice. The prince nodded and turned to walk into the main hall.
"Meet your highness."
Jiang Zhaoying and his group hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Yang Pianpian followed Jiang Zhaoying with her head down, not daring to look at the prince.
"Why are you here?"
"Your Highness, we are here to look for Princess Tingyun."
The prince looked at Shen Liuguang. When Shen Liuguang came back after going out for a while, his face looked a little gloomy.
"Your Highness, it seems someone has come to the palace. Princess Tingyun was taken away before she even returned home."
"Is there something important?"
The prince asked Jiang Zhaoying, and Jiang Zhaoying shook her head slightly.
"It's nothing, I just heard that she was going to the palace, and I wanted to ask her if she wanted to bring anything back, but I missed it. So forget it, it's the same if I give it to her next time we meet. Your Highness, we'll go back first."
"kindness."
The prince responded indifferently, and Jiang Zhaoying handed a bag of crispy candies she had just bought to His Royal Highness the Prince.
"This is delicious, your highness."
The prince was slightly stunned, then took it. Seeing them walking away, Shen Liuguang stepped forward and wanted to take the candy from his hand, but he couldn't pull it out after pulling it. The prince looked at Shen Liuguang with a cold face.
"What are you going to do?"
"Your Highness... would you like to eat?"
Your Highness never eats these things, and these things never appear in the Prince’s Mansion.
The prince glanced at Shen Liuguang coldly, opened the small bag, took out a crisp candy, frowned and put it in his mouth.
The prince was stunned by the fresh, fragrant and crispy taste.
No wonder women love these things, they are so delicious.
"Your Highness, don't you want to eat?"
When Cheng Ting'an came in, he happened to see this scene and suddenly said something. The prince looked at him coldly.
"What do you know?"
After saying.
The prince stood up and left, holding the bag of candies.
Cheng Ting'an was scolded for no reason and was confused for a moment, so he turned to ask Shen Liuguang.
"What's wrong? As far as I can remember, His Highness really doesn't eat these women's food."
"What do you know?"
Shen Liuguang waved his hand away, yelled at him, and turned away.
Cheng Ting'an stood there in a daze and touched his face. Did he look stupid today?
Just a candy.
Is it necessary to curse like this?
As soon as he rushed out, the guards came running over.
"Commander Cheng, His Highness wants you to go to the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Commander Cui's father was almost in trouble. He has found several people and has put them in prison."
Cheng Ting'an turned around and left with a cold face.
If he remembered correctly, Song Chengyu was imprisoned there.
snort.
He discovered that the prince's bad mood was usually related to Miss Jiang, which was in turn related to Song Chengyu. He had no place to vent his anger, so he went to the dungeon and vented it on Song Chengyu.
Think about it this way.
Cheng Ting'an jumped on his horse and galloped away.
When passing by Jiang Zhaoying's carriage, a gust of wind blew up the curtain. Jiang Zhaoying lifted the curtain and saw Cheng Tingan whizzing past without even glancing at him. She couldn't help feeling a little confused.
"Brother, Ruogu and my cousin are both injured, and my aunt is frightened. I want to pick out some good supplements to send to the palace. Why not prepare some things for the princess as well?"
"good."
Jiang Zhiyu nodded in response, and the few of them discussed what to send in. The carriage arrived at the gate of the Song Mansion, and they watched Jiang Zhaoying enter the Song Mansion before they turned around and left.
There were only the two of them left. At first, they were on the busy street with things to see and things to talk about, so they didn't think it was a big deal. But now that they were alone, Yang Pianpian suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Jiang Zhiyu looked at her shy appearance and smiled.
"I am different from those young masters from aristocratic families. You don't have to feel any psychological burden."
"kindness."
Yang Pianpian was extremely happy and nodded.
"Do you remember the lucky bag I gave you?"
Jiang Zhiyu naturally remembered it, and the lucky bag was always with him, so he took it out from his arms, and Yang Pianpian pointed at it.
"I put something in there, didn't you know?"
She put a small strand of her long hair in the lucky bag, and the meaning behind it was obvious at a glance.
Jiang Zhiyu smiled and handed her the lucky bag.
"You'll know when you see it."
Yang Pianpian took the lucky bag and found that the things inside seemed to be thicker. She hurriedly opened it and took it out to have a look, then her face turned red with embarrassment.
"Are you satisfied?"
Jiang Zhiyu asked her.
The moment he saw the hair, he was shocked and knew what it meant. After thinking it over again and again, he cut a little bit of his own hair, braided it into a beautiful love knot and put it back into the marriage bag.
Yang Pianpian also took out her marriage bag from her arms, put it into Jiang Zhiyu's lucky bag, and then put her hair in.
"Then let me keep it together."
"good."
Just chatting.
Yang Pianpian lifted the curtain and pointed to a very large and beautiful clothing store.
"Just send it here. I'll go buy something for my mother and brother before I go back."
"I'll go with you."
Jiang Zhiyu was about to get off the carriage with Yang Pianpian as he spoke, but at this moment, he heard someone shouting with joy.
"Cousin, what a coincidence."
Yang Pianpian looked up and saw that it was her cousin, then she jumped off the carriage and said with a smile.
"Yes, Sister Junyi, are you here to buy something too?"
Speaking of.
Yang Pianpian turned around and said to Jiang Zhiyu.
"I have a companion now, don't worry about me, you go back first."
Jiang Zhiyu looked in the direction of Shi Chunyi and happened to meet Shi Chunyi's sight. Shi Chunyi was stunned when he saw Jiang Zhiyu's handsome face, then bowed with a red face. Jiang Zhiyu nodded. Now that Yang Pianpian was accompanied by someone, it was really inconvenient for him to follow, so he said to the servants.
"Let's go to the teahouse across the street."
There was a story being told inside, and he could listen to the story while drinking tea, and wait for Miss Yang at the same time. He would go back after she entered the Yang Mansion.
…
The setting sun burned half of the sky, and the entire capital city was shrouded in picturesque beauty.
The storytelling was wonderful and there was constant applause. Before I knew it, I had drunk two pots of good tea. The sky gradually darkened. In the clothing shop opposite, fewer and fewer customers went in and more and more came out. But Yang Pianpian was the only one who didn't come out.
It takes an hour to buy anything.
Jiang Zhiyu frowned.
I quickly paid the bill and walked towards the clothing store across the street.
But.
What surprised Jiang Zhiyu was that there were only a few customers walking around in the store. After walking around for a whole time, he didn't even see Yang Pianpian. He grabbed the waiter and asked him, and the waiter said that they had left long ago and went out through the back door.
Jiang Zhiyu was stunned. Why did he want to leave through the back door?
Is she avoiding him?
She turned around, left the garment shop, got on the carriage, and returned to the Jiang Mansion. But halfway through the journey, Jiang Zhiyu still felt uneasy, so he asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the Yang Mansion. When asked, the Yang Mansion said that the young lady had not returned at all.
Jiang Zhiyu was so frightened that his legs went weak.
By this time, the sky had completely darkened. Madam Yang was extremely anxious after hearing what had happened. She immediately sent people to search all the possible places, and then sent people to look for Shi Chunyi's house.
result.
Shi Chunyi was lying leisurely on the couch and eating fruit.
Mrs. Yang was so angry that she rushed forward and slapped Shi Chunyi in the face, angrily asking her where Yang Pianpian was.
Shi Chunyi was so scared that her face turned pale. She cried and made a fuss, saying that she and Yang Pianpian left through the back door after buying things, and she had no idea where Yang Pianpian was.
When the Shi family heard the noise, they rushed over to protect Shi Chunyi and blamed Madam Yang for not giving her any face at all. No one even asked whether Yang Pianpian was safe or where she was.
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes were cold. He guessed that something was fishy and immediately left Shi's house and rushed to Song's house.
Jiang Zhaoying, Shu Yun and Shu Yu had just given Abao a bath and changed him into his newest clothes. Just as they were preparing to take him to bed, they heard that his brother had arrived, so they hurriedly dressed and went out.
Just saw it.
Jiang Zhaoying's expression changed slightly.
"What's wrong?"
"Sister, Miss Yang has not returned home."
Jiang Zhiyu was so panicked that his voice was shaking. He finally told Jiang Zhaoying the whole story in a disjointed manner.
As soon as Jiang Zhaoying heard it, she knew that Miss Yang had fallen into someone's trap and was probably captured by someone.
Holding Jiang Zhiyu's hand tightly, Jiang Zhaoying said with a cold face.
"I understand. Go back to the mansion and wait. I will handle this matter."
"No……"
Jiang Zhiyu couldn't feel at ease.
"Brother, don't interfere in this matter. After all, you have no name or status with her now. If something unpleasant comes out, it will be even worse for Miss Yang."
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes turned red when he heard this, but he really didn't want to be too obvious, so he asked for help.
"I'll wait in the carriage, okay?"
"good."
Jiang Zhaoying turned around and Nanny Li came forward to take Abao from her arms, then turned to talk to Shu Yun and Shu Yu.
"It's cold at night, put a cloak on the young lady, and ask Sinan and Feicui to follow her. Be careful outside and don't let anyone bully you."
"Know."
After agreeing, Jiang Zhaoying and Jiang Zhiyu hurriedly left the Song Mansion.
Nanny Li immediately returned to the inner courtyard to make proper arrangements for everyone, and asked Shu Yun to dress up as Jiang Zhaoying and sit on the couch to play with Abao.
She lit the candle brightly and stood outside, able to vaguely see Jiang Zhaoying's figure.
Shu Yu stroked her pounding heart and whispered softly to Nanny Li.
"Looking at it this way, it really does look like the young lady's shadow."
Nanny Li nodded, and the two were about to go in.
There was a noise at the gate of the courtyard.
The two men turned around.
Then they saw Madam Song, accompanied by Madam Liu, the maids and servants, standing at the gate of the courtyard with stern faces.
There was a hint of fear in Mrs. Song's eyes. She looked up and around the yard, as if she was very scared.
Nanny Li watched coldly, knowing what was going on, and took two steps forward.
"Madam, is there something wrong?"
When Mrs. Song saw that Nanny Li did not show her respect and did not come up to open the door, she became furious. Nanny Liu saw this and scolded her coldly.
"What kind of rules are these? Madam is here in person, shouldn't the Crown Prince's wife come to greet her?"
Shu Yu listened with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes and turned to look at Nanny Li.
Nanny Li was a veteran after all, her expression remained unchanged as she spoke with a stern face.
"My young lady is playing with her dog and will go to bed soon. If there is nothing important, please don't disturb her. My young lady will go to see Madam tomorrow morning."
What a big frame!
Mrs. Song rushed forward two steps, but when she saw the familiar place in the courtyard, she retreated quickly. Madam Liu raised her hand, and the maids and old women came up and pushed the gate.
Nanny Li was not afraid of them either, she just turned around and gave orders.
"Shu Yu, go and bring the hot oil over here. If they dare to touch the gate, pour it over them."
Shu Yu smiled.
As soon as the lady left, they started making various preparations. The oil was burning, waiting for them to arrive.
After a while, everyone saw Shu Yu bringing over a large basin of sizzling hot oil.
The sound scared everyone. Nanny Liu hurriedly protected Madam Song and retreated several steps. Madam Song was so frightened that her legs went weak. She was also extremely angry and pointed at Nanny Li and scolded her.
"Old bitch, you dare to make a scene in my Song Mansion and ask Jiang Zhaoying to come out. I want to ask, after sending her husband to jail and causing chaos in the mansion, is she going to kill me next?"
