She also sorted out all the troublesome things at home.

The prince is well now.

Lady Hou finally gave up on Marquis Yongning.

He showed no mercy in dealing with his concubines.

Her son is her source of confidence.

Lady Yongning no longer takes the Marquis of Yongning seriously.

Yan Yu'an caught the emperor's eye and, without relying on the Marquis of Yongning, obtained a position as an imperial bodyguard.

This is a position that everyone envies but cannot obtain.

Marquis Yongning now has to be mindful of his son's feelings.

Lady Hou is always all smiles these days. She has invited dignitaries from the capital to celebrate in a grand manner.

At the banquet, Lady Hou proudly announced the prince's recovery, and everyone offered their congratulations.

Looking at his spirited son, Marquis Yongning felt both gratified and somewhat disappointed.

Yan Yu'an watched everything quietly from the side. He knew how hard his mother had worked all these years and secretly vowed to protect her.

Jiang Chuwei and Prince Yu arrived one after the other.

Yan Yu'an felt a pang of disappointment upon seeing that graceful figure.

Her marriage to Prince Yu was arranged by her mother.

After his mother beamed with joy as she told him she had done a good deed, Yan Yu'an nearly fainted upon learning it was Jiang Chuwei's marriage proposal.

My mother really has no sense of propriety whatsoever.

Yan Yu'an planned to wait until he was fully recovered before shamelessly asking the emperor for a marriage decree.

Marquis Yongning will not allow him to marry a woman who has been married before.

Only by obtaining an imperial decree granting him the marriage would the Marquis of Yongning dare not disobey it.

He wanted to spend the rest of his life with Miss Jiang, who had given him a second life, and he wanted to cherish her for the rest of his life.

But this idea was nipped in the bud by his mother.

Yan Yu'an could only bury these feelings deep in his heart.

He bowed to Prince Yu and said, "Your Highness, please take a seat!"

Madam Yan warmly took Jiang Chuwei's hand and introduced her to the ladies of various prominent families.

What Madam Yan didn't know was that these ladies already knew Jiang Chuwei.

A few days ago, they all rushed to the general's mansion.

However, everyone seems to have forgotten the pain once the wound has healed. Despite suffering such a great loss at the Prince Jin's mansion, they still happily attended the banquet at the Marquis of Yongning's mansion.

The ladies all greeted Jiang Chuwei warmly, vying to be the first to greet her and showering her with concern. This left Lady Yongning, the wife of the Marquis, completely bewildered.

She didn't attend the banquet at the Prince Jin's mansion, having heard gossip that many people had been poisoned.

Today she still thinks that many ladies from aristocratic families wouldn't give her face.

Unexpectedly, people kept coming.

Marquis Yongning knew this because his son was already a royal bodyguard.

The ladies of noble families are all very shrewd!

Yuan Shizi was someone who frequently walked in front of the emperor.

If he were to say a few kind words about someone, the emperor might remember them.

Jiang Chuwei smiled as she responded to the ladies' greetings, but her gaze remained fixed on Yan Yu'an, who was not far away.

She noticed a hint of disappointment in his eyes, and a complex emotion welled up inside her.

At this moment, a lady dressed in gorgeous clothes approached Jiang Chuwei and said in a low voice, "Miss Jiang, congratulations! Becoming the Princess Consort of Yu is something that countless women dream of."

Jiang Chuwei smiled slightly and said softly, "Thank you, Madam. However, this marriage is also a matter of fate."

The lady smiled and continued, "Speaking of which, I've heard some interesting rumors. It's said that someone was poisoned at the banquet at the Prince Jin's mansion?"

Jiang Chuwei's heart skipped a beat; she naturally knew what had happened at that banquet.

She feigned composure and said, "Yes, that's true. However, I don't know the specifics."

It's better to avoid trouble, even though the rumors outside were indeed spread from the General's Mansion.

The Prince of Jin has suffered a great blow and rarely comes out these days.

Jiang Chuwei knew he was waiting for the right opportunity.

Once people have forgotten about it, he'll suddenly resurface.

The lady gave her a meaningful look. "Hehe, Miss Jiang, don't worry. Someone of Prince Yu's noble status will handle everything." With that, she turned and left.

Jiang Chuwei didn't know this person, nor did she know what she meant by saying this.

Let it be; the Prince Yu's mansion is currently in the eye of the storm.

Jiang Chuwei wouldn't be foolish enough to give others leverage over her.

After greeting Jiang Chuwei, Prince Yan did not cause her any further trouble.

Love is about restraint; as long as the other person is doing well, not disturbing them is the wise choice.

Prince Yan will forever keep this feeling buried in his heart.

Because Prince Yu was Jiang Ziwei's fiancé, Prince Yan also had a particularly good impression of Prince Yu.

He wasn't jealous; he only felt admiration and a fondness for everything connected to the house.

The banquet at the Yongning Marquis's residence was a great success.

Prince Yan was imposing and strong, only slightly paler than before he was injured.

Now he has become a highly sought-after figure in Beijing.

There are countless people who want to marry into the Yongning Marquis's family.

Days passed, and Jiang Chuwei lived quietly in General Yu's mansion. However, she could never forget what the mysterious lady had said. How would Prince Yu handle everything? Her heart was filled with doubt.

Soon after, news spread throughout the capital that Prince Jin had been placed under house arrest on suspicion of poisoning. Jiang Chuwei, upon hearing this, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Prince Yu indeed had his methods.

Meanwhile, Prince Yan silently observed Jiang Chuwei's life. He knew he couldn't interfere in her relationship with Prince Yu, but he was willing to protect her silently. Perhaps, this was his way of expressing his love.
