On her wedding day, Jiang Xuelin, who had eloped, received good news – her fiancé, the heir of Prince Ping, Fu Hanlai, was also dissatisfied with the marriage and had eloped.
Jiang Xuelin ...
Surprisingly, the matter did not spread in the court. On the one hand, everyone knew that it concerned a woman's reputation and should not be spread. On the other hand, when Marquis Jing'an mentioned this matter, he would bite anyone he could get his hands on, and those spoiled elders had reached the point where they felt a headache just seeing him and avoided him at all costs.
Finally, Emperor Xuande and Prince Ping clearly did not intend to break off the engagement because of this matter, so Jiang Xuelin was undoubtedly Prince Ping's heir apparent and future Princess Ping.
Marquis Jing'an values this daughter highly. As for the Prince Ping's residence, Prince Ping is a lawless and incorruptible man. It is clear that Prince Ping's heir will inherit his father's mantle in the future. It is really necessary to avoid such a person who is clearly not willing to reason.
Besides, this matter wasn't originally the fault of the Jiang family's daughter; it was purely caused by those spoiled brats who got drunk and caused trouble.
This relieved Lady Jing'an, who had been on tenterhooks, a little.
Of course, she had no intention of letting the matter rest. She wrote down all those families' names, knowing she would settle accounts later. Right now, the most important thing was the upcoming marriage.
Moreover, those spoiled brats have all been thrown into the Jing'an Marquis's camp in the suburbs for training. Even though their mothers and grandmothers cried and begged, it did not change the fact that they could not be rescued.
How could the Marquis of Jing'an let them out so easily?
—Yes, I am taking revenge, I am venting my anger!
But I'm acting on orders to vent my anger, what can you do about it?
As one of the parties involved in the incident, Jiang Xuelin knew nothing about it. All she knew was that Fu Hanlai's fight was related to her because those spoiled brats were saying bad things about her, but she didn't know exactly what they said.
When the maids learned of this, they all thought that the young lady and her future husband might not divorce in the future, so wasn't that a good thing?
Even the Marquis of Jing'an and his wife had a much different impression of Fu Hanlai. Jiang Xuetao no longer looked down on him.
"Are you all idiots?"
The entire capital now knows that although Prince Ping and Miss Jiang appear to be at odds, they are actually deeply in love. To protect her, he single-handedly confronted several纨绔 (playboys) and, in a fit of rage, injured them, even hurting his own face. However, when Jiang Xuelin heard the news brought back by her maid, she looked at them as if they were idiots.
Several lolis: "..."
“Fu Han isn’t protecting me, he’s protecting his own reputation. After all, I’m nominally his fiancée now. If I hear this and do nothing, it’s not just me who’s losing face, it’s him too. He’s not really stupid.”
"Furthermore, he has always treated me like a mortal enemy. Now that those who deserve a beating are looking down on me, isn't that also a sign of disrespect towards him?"
Given his pride, how could he possibly let this go?
but……
"I'm so envious..."
People are saying bad things about her and Fu Hanlai is coming to her rescue. Just think, Fu Hanlai is still wandering around outside all day, going wherever he wants, while she has been locked up for quite some time. I'm so jealous!
Give her a chance, let her go out, why would she need Fu Han to seek justice for her?
“Young lady, you don’t understand.” Hongluo, who was a little younger than Jiang Xuelin, sighed and said quietly.
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
Why doesn't your daughter understand?
"So, which ones did you find out?"
"Yes, miss, I have asked all the questions."
"Very good, write it down, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Her father has already dealt with him? No problem, she can deal with him again!
In this respect, she is not magnanimous; of course, she will seek revenge.
"Nowadays, everyone outside is saying that you and Prince Ping are childhood sweethearts who are bickering lovers."
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
The expression on his face instantly turned ugly.
Fu Hanlai also had a bad expression on his face.
Jiang Xuelin was alright; it was just a maid relaying the message from outside. But Fu Hanlai was different; someone directly asked him the question.
Thinking back on the disputes these two had in the past, they really do seem like childhood sweethearts who are bickering but endearing to each other.
There wasn't much going on in the capital these days, except for the two dramatic marriages: the Third Prince's marriage to Fei Qing, and Fu Hanlai's marriage to Jiang Xuelin.
Now that this has happened again, it has naturally become a topic of conversation. Besides, there was nothing to it, and no one else knows what those playboys were talking about that day.
Unfortunately, the person asking the question was an elder from the royal family, so even though Fu Hanlai looked like he had swallowed a fly, he couldn't really do anything.
Anyway, as the wedding day drew closer, both Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai felt that they couldn't continue, but they couldn't find any other way.
Jiang Xuelin had been trying to escape, but Lady Jing'an noticed and is now being watched very closely, making it impossible for her to get away. What about Fu Hanlai?
With the wedding day fast approaching, he had no desire to continue watching Jiang Xuelin make a fool of herself. He just wanted to get the marriage going as soon as possible. However, because of what had happened before, Fu Hanlai was now under house arrest.
They said that the wedding was approaching and there were many things to do, so he had to stay in the mansion to prevent being lost. Moreover, even though Princess Ping was handling many things, Fu Han still needed to come by himself.
In short, Princess Ping doesn't want to see him go out and cause trouble again. It would be unsightly if he had injuries on his face when they got married.
June arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather in the capital city became hot. Cicadas, chirping all day long, were still clinging to the trees outside, driving people crazy.
