Marrying a Powerful Minister and Living as a Widow? The Transmigrated Cannon Fodder Refuses!

Jiang Yuzhu transmigrated into a book, becoming Xie Zhao's early-deceased original wife. The story begins with a bang: the original owner is on her way to commit adultery, a scheme orchestrated...

Chapter 57 You Have to Accept Your Fate

Just as the Queen Mother was about to grant the marriage, Princess Yutan knelt down and said, "Queen Mother, I have set my sights on the second son of the Jiang family and beg you to grant me the marriage."

Princess Yutan took the initiative and even Jiang Yuzhu was stunned.

The Queen Mother stood up and pulled Princess Yutan to her feet, then asked with a smile, "Didn't you say that no man was worthy of you and you wouldn't get married?"

The Xiao family has few bloodlines, and Princess Yutan's parents died early, so she grew up with the empress dowager.

The relationship between the two is no different from that between a mother and daughter.

Princess Yutan got carried away and felt a little regretful about her impulsiveness. Was she too proactive?

Unfortunately, words are hard to take back. She thought for a moment and replied, "Second Young Master Jiang is very good."

Although Jiang Huaiqing is not good at martial arts, he is willing to endure hardships. In order to compete with her, he hired seven or eight martial arts masters. At least he has the spirit of never giving up.

Jiang Huaiqing dotes on Jiang Yuzhu and is kind to his family. A man like him can never be wrong.

As for her reputation as a playboy, Princess Yutan did not care. She was also known as the "God of Killing" in the north, and no man dared to marry her.

As a royal relative, Princess Yutan's status has reached its limit, and she does not need to marry into a wealthy family to add icing on the cake.

Jiang Yuzhu blinked and said with some emotion: "Princess..."

In order to prevent Wei Jing from being brought to the Jiang family, Princess Yutan made a great sacrifice.

Jiang Yuzhu was overjoyed, and then fell into deep thought.

Princess Yu Tan is right. If my second brother really enters the Jiang family, he will not be beaten three times a day, right?

Chen said, "I will prepare the betrothal gifts as soon as possible and propose marriage to my useless second son."

As for Wei Jing's marriage, Xiao She said that it still needed careful consideration. He failed to get into trouble with the Jiang family, but was actually messed up by his cousin.

After the false alarm, the Jiang family became the biggest winner. Jiang Huaiqing, who missed the spring hunt, got a wife for nothing, while Wei Jing lost her reputation and got nothing except the reward.

Behind her back, Jiang Yuzhu asked Princess Yutan half-doubtfully, "Are you really going to be my second sister-in-law?"

"Why, you don't want to?"

Princess Yutan was very nervous. She and Jiang Yuzhu had once had some misunderstandings, but they had reconciled long ago.

Princess Yutan knew the rules of the Jiang family. It was nothing more than pampering Jiang Yuzhu, and she could do it.

After saying this, Princess Yutan's face flushed, and she lowered her head without saying a word.

The situation was urgent at the time. She saw that the emperor and the empress dowager seemed to have already discussed it, and there was no time to discuss it with Jiang Yuzhu.

Now think about it, impulsive decisions often represent the most genuine thoughts.

Jiang Yuzhu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Promise me one thing."

"What?"

Not to mention one thing, even if it’s ten or twenty things, Princess Yutan will agree.

With no one around, Jiang Yuzhu leaned over to Princess Yutan's ear and said, "If my second brother offends you, you must remember your original intention and hit him gently."

Princess Yutan: "..."

After Jiang Huaiqing's marriage was settled, Chen's face was flushed and she walked with a breeze.

God knows how difficult it is for Jiang Huaiqing to get married. Every time Chen mentioned it to the ladies of the other families, they would avoid it.

After returning to the Jiang Mansion, Chen first went to burn incense to the Buddha and silently prayed for Buddha's blessing. Her second son was finally going to get married!

After all, Chen was going to marry the princess and was extremely concerned about the reputation of the royal family.

When Jiang Huaiqing returned to the capital, his friends immediately told him the news.

Originally planning to have a small gathering at a restaurant, Jiang Huaiqing threw down the silver and rode a fast horse in a hurry back home.

Seeing Chen, Jiang Huaiqing said with a sad face, "Mother, are you going to sell your son like this?"

Why sell it to that yaksha Princess Yutan when there are so many people to sell it to?

Jiang Huaiqing was in a very heavy mood, with his head hung low.

Chen didn't care. She was calculating. When she heard this, she just raised her eyelids and said, "Of course I have to sell you for a good price. Otherwise, why would I give birth to you?"

Jiang Huaiqing is already over the age of coming of age. If he doesn't get married, does he have to wait until he's old to get married?

"Second brother, don't think that women can't afford to delay. The same goes for men. In a few years, do you think the daughter of a wealthy family in the capital will despise you?"

When Chen heard that Princess Yutan was good friends with her daughter Jiang Yuzhu, she was willing to do it.

As for my son's opinion, it is not very important.

"The Queen Mother has granted me the marriage, can I disobey her orders?"

To prevent her son from feeling too resentful, Chen had already prepared an excuse. Finally, she said to Jiang Huaiqing, "You have to accept your fate."

Jiang Huaiqing said in a somewhat collapsed voice: "Mother, Princess Yutan is my son's enemy..."

Chen threw the abacus in her hand and stood up, angrily saying, "If this gets out, will the Jiang family be implicated and the entire family be beheaded?"

Princess Yutan is a royal relative and is an enemy of the royal family. Chen even thought that the Jiang family was going to rebel.

Mother Chen was exaggerating, but Jiang Huaiqing put on a smile and softened his tone, "Princess Yutan is a skilled martial artist. My son cannot defeat her."

Jiang Huaiqing originally meant to say that he was easily bullied, but Chen misinterpreted his meaning.

Chen pulled out a feather duster from a wide-mouthed porcelain vase and said majestically, "Princess Yutan is powerful because she has the ability to protect herself, but that's no reason for you to beat your wife! Jiang Huaiqing, you've really made it!"

As a result, the Jiang Mansion was in chaos and extremely lively.

Since her second brother is getting engaged, Jiang Yuzhu has to show her appreciation. She and Zhao Fendie are choosing jade pendants in the shop.

The servant in the mansion came and said, "Madam, please go back to the mansion to see if your cousin is feeling well."

“What happened to cousin Shen?”

Thanks to Shen Zhilan's reminder, Jiang Yuzhu successfully avoided the assassin and even showed up in front of the Queen Mother.

To express her gratitude, Jiang Yuzhu prepared a gift for Shen Zhilan.

The servant replied, "The steward has already called in several doctors, and they all said they couldn't find anything wrong."

Since the day of the spring hunt, Shen Zhilan had nosebleeds and became very weak.

At first, the maid Xia'er thought that her young lady needed to rest and did not disturb her. However, Shen Zhilan slept for more than a day, and Xia'er realized that something was wrong.

The doctors all said it was a difficult and complicated disease, so in this case they had no choice but to ask the imperial physician for treatment.

"I went to the government office to look for the master, and happened to catch him entering the palace."

The servant was very anxious because the news could not be delivered to the palace.

Jiang Yuzhu nodded slightly and said to Hongli, "Go to the Jiang family and ask my mother for help."

If you can’t find Xie Zhao, go to the Jiang family to ask for help. Saving people is important!

Most of the servants in the Xie Mansion are honest and hardworking, but not very smart.

Jiang Yuzhu hurried back to Xie's house. The imperial physician had just finished the consultation and said, "Madam Xie, Miss Shen's condition is a little strange."

There is no abnormality in the pulse, but he has been drowsy.

The imperial physician had already performed acupuncture and would wait for Shen Zhilan to wake up before taking her pulse to find the root cause.

Jiang Yuzhu sent Steward Xie to entertain the imperial physician very politely.

After sleeping for three days, Shen Zhilan woke up slowly and felt as if she was in another world again.

Jiang Yuzhu ordered the kitchen to stew some tonic food and came to visit: "Cousin, are you feeling better?"

"Cousin, thank goodness for being here."

Shen Zhilan smiled bitterly, she was not sick.

Shen Zhilan was very moved when she heard that Jiang Yuzhu had invited imperial doctors for her for several days in a row.

After thinking for a long time, she sent the maid away and said to Jiang Yuzhu, "Cousin, do you believe that a person can live two lives?"
