Chapter 405 Aren’t you going to ask me for a divorce?

It was the first time that Jiang Hao saw Song Wan'er looking so serious about talking to him.

He also thought that now that Xizhou was growing stronger, Song Anlan, the richest man in Dongzhou, was poised to become the richest man in the world. Song Wan'er probably felt that she was strong enough and wanted to ask for a divorce from him.

So Jiang Hao said without hesitation: "No room for negotiation."

"Why are you like this?"

Song Wan'er had prepared a speech for a long time, ready to persuade Jiang Hao with both emotion and reason, but this man didn't give her the chance to speak at all, and directly said that there was no room for negotiation.

She was a little angry. "I haven't told you what it is yet."

Jiang Hao frowned slightly, "Besides leaving, is there anything else you need to discuss with me?"

Song Wan'er choked.

Indeed, she had done whatever she wanted in the Jiang Mansion for the past three years, and no one could do anything to her.

What Jiang Hao said was true.

But Song Wan'er still felt that this was no reason for Jiang Hao not to listen to her. She immediately said, "What's wrong with me leaving? I'm not leaving without saying goodbye. Isn't this just a discussion with you?"

Before Jiang Hao could speak, Song Wan'er continued, "Besides, I just want to go to Xizhou to see my sister and the princess. It's not like I won't come back!"

"You're coming back?" Jiang Hao immediately grasped the key point, "Aren't you going to ask for a divorce from me?"

Song Wan'er felt that Jiang Hao was a strange person when she heard this. "If you're willing to divorce, that would be even better. Just write the divorce papers and I'll leave right away..."

"I don't want to."

Jiang Hao interrupted Song Wan'er without waiting for her to speak.

Song Wan'er looked at Jiang Hao with an expression that said "I knew it" and asked, "Can you discuss it?"

Jiang Hao said, "Yes."

"Then stand still. I'll say it again." Song Wan'er cleared her throat. "I'm going to Xizhou. You can handle the rest yourself."

Jiang Hao stood a few steps away. "You can go to Xizhou, but the capital has been in turmoil lately. I'm afraid the situation may change. You'd better stay in the mansion and don't run around. Otherwise, your life will be in danger."

Three years ago, the emperor had a son in his old age and was particularly fond of the youngest, the sixteenth prince. As a result, Concubine Zheng and her mother also rose to prominence. Prince Rui Huo Yang and the ninth prince Huo Yan had been fighting for a long time, and the situation in the capital was unpredictable.

In addition, as Xizhou became increasingly powerful and prosperous, many people in the capital began to feel restless.

Jiang Hao had a premonition that the situation in the capital was changing and that things were about to change.

"You just said we could discuss it!"

When Song Wan'er heard him say this, she felt that Jiang Hao was deliberately trying to scare her.

Moreover, this person said that they could discuss it one moment, but the next moment she said that the situation in the capital was going to change and asked her to stay in the mansion and not run around. Isn't this going back on her word?

Jiang Hao said, "After this is over, I will personally take you to Xizhou."

"Who wants to send you? I'll go by myself!" Song Wan'er no longer wanted to talk nicely to Jiang Hao. "Aren't you just afraid that I'll run away? Why are you making up so many excuses? You deliberately approached me for the Song family's money, and marrying me was even more calculated! Now you won't let me go to Xizhou, it's simply because you're afraid that I won't come back after going there. Without me as a hostage, you won't get any benefits--"

"Song Wan'er!" Jiang Hao felt that every word Song Wan'er said was heartbreaking, and he couldn't help but interrupt her harshly, "Stop it."

"What do you mean by knowing when to stop? You dare to do it but you don't dare let me say it?" Song Wan'er was furious. "Even if it's really as you said, and the capital is about to change, wouldn't it be a good opportunity for me to avoid danger by going to Xizhou now? You don't let me go to Xizhou. You're not considering me at all, you're only considering yourself!"

"Yes." Jiang Hao didn't argue at all and admitted it directly, "I am selfish and calculating. It's not the first day you've known me, so don't you already know what kind of person I am?"

"you……"

Seeing him admit it so frankly, Song Wan'er was speechless for a moment.

Shameless!

So shameless!

Fortunately, she sometimes felt that Jiang Hao was not so bad that he was beyond redemption.

Now it seems that he is completely hopeless!

Jiang Hao saw that Song Wan'er's eyes were filled with anger, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be bursting with fire. He immediately ordered his attendants, "Come here, take the lady back to her room. Without my order, she is not allowed to step out of the courtyard."

The maids looked at each other, and none of them dared to answer.

Song Wan'er snorted coldly, "Don't bother me. I don't want to see you either!"

She said this and walked away angrily.

A group of maids and old women followed and left.

The lady and the general are quarreling again, and it’s unknown how long it will take for them to calm down this time.

Song Wan'er walked quickly, thinking that since Jiang Hao was unwilling to discuss things properly, she would sneak out of the house while Jiang Hao was not there and secretly go to Xizhou.

She has been alone in the capital for so long, and she can hardly see her brother a few times a year. She misses her sister and the princess so much.

This time, as long as she goes to Xizhou, she will be able to reunite with them, and she must not miss this opportunity.

Jiang Hao watched Song Wan'er leave in anger. None of the maids and servants in the mansion dared to offend the Madam. He ordered in a deep voice, "Liu Yi, go look after the Madam."

Standing not far away, watching the quarrel between the Madam and the General, Butler Liu smiled a miserable smile and stepped forward, saying, "This... how can I keep an eye on it?"

Jiang Hao looked at Liu Yi with a look that said, "What use do I have for you?"

"Don't look at me like that." Butler Liu whispered, "You're the one who spoiled me."

Liu Yi said, "Everyone in this mansion knows that they cannot displease the Madam. If the Madam insists on going to Xizhou this time, who can stop her?"

"If you can't stop her, follow her." Jiang Hao said, "You must personally lead people to escort her to Xizhou. Make sure she is sent there safely and brought back in one piece."

"General..."

Butler Liu was really shocked this time.

The general had just been stabbed in the heart by his wife's harsh words, but he still refused to give in and even wanted to lock her up. Although he failed, he suddenly changed his mind after this person left. What's going on?

Jiang Hao said, "The situation in the capital is about to change. I don't know who will take the first step. Moreover, the emperor is now increasingly wary of Prince Chang'an. If he knew that I sent my wife to Xizhou, he would definitely think that I have ulterior motives."

So he had to act like he wasn't allowing Song Wan'er to go to Xizhou, or even locked her up.

It would be best if Song Wan'er could behave herself. If she insisted on going to Xizhou secretly, he could only send someone to escort her secretly.

"I understand." Seeing Jiang Hao's perfect arrangement, Butler Liu sighed and said, "You could have explained this to Madam earlier. Madam is not unreasonable. She's been sitting here waiting for you for a long time, mumbling to herself, as if she was practicing how to discuss this with you..."

"Alright." Jiang Hao felt annoyed when he thought of Song Wan'er's angry scolding of him. "Tell the kitchen to make some of the sweet steamed cheese that Madam likes and send it to her."

Butler Liu said, "How about the general go and send it off himself?"

Jiang Hao glanced at Butler Liu and said, "I'll go and deliver it. The steamed cheese with sugar won't be eaten anymore."

Liu Yi pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What else can it be used for?"

Jiang Hao said silently: "Hit me."

Butler Liu said, "That's perfect. This way, Madam will be able to calm down."

Jiang Hao took a deep breath and said nothing.

What has Song Wan'er done to these people in the General's Mansion?
