Chapter 358 The Spare
Tire Looking for Excuses He Yanting's emphasis was on "personally" and "match".
Jiang Wenjing gritted his teeth, and his clenched fists creaked.
No wonder the eldest brother scolded him for nearly an hour when he came back from his house last time.
This kid is really not a good person.
Jiang Zhiyu wanted to explain, but saw He Yanting looking over, his eyes drooping slightly, his expression a little lonely.
Jiang Zhiyu: "..."
Forget it, it's her fault, she just wanted to play a prank secretly, but didn't expect this.
Jiang Wenjing was about to continue speaking, but saw Jiang Zhiyu shook his head.
Jiang Wenjing: "..."
Tsk, okay!
Xiao Siyuan was still standing there, looking out of the situation.
Jiang Wenjing's anger, which had nowhere to vent, fell on him: "If the Fifth Prince has nothing to do, he might as well study more military books in the mansion to avoid being laughed at by others. What can you achieve by always focusing on ruining the reputation of other innocent women?"
Xiao Siyuan's face was gloomy, and his voice was full of displeasure: "General Jiang is right, but Sulan and I love each other. Who in Shengjing doesn't know it? What's the point of ruining reputation?"
"Love each other?" Jiang Wenjing sneered, and his eyes became more and more angry.
Jiang Zhiyu was the same.
"You are really a scumbag wearing a mask - you are so shameless."
Xiao Siyuan: "!!!"
It would have been better if he didn't say it. As soon as he said it, Jiang Wenjing couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
Bullshit about mutual affection. It was clear that he had been planning to kill Sulan from the beginning!
If Zhiyu hadn't intervened, Sulan would have died in his hands long ago!
Now he still has the nerve to stand in front of him and tell him righteously that they were in love? !
Jiang Wenjing walked up to Xiao Siyuan and whispered in his ear, "The fifth prince forgot about the jade pendant, but we didn't."
Xiao Siyuan's face suddenly changed, and he licked his lips, "There must be a misunderstanding. I can explain..."
No one present wanted to listen to his explanation.
Oh, no, the crowd was still willing to listen.
Just as Jiang Wenjing and Jiang Zhiyu were about to take action, Jiang Sulan walked out of the mansion.
A hint of joy flashed in Xiao Siyuan's eyes.
He was right.
He slipped past Jiang Wenjing while he was not paying attention and stood in front of Jiang Sulan.
"Sulan..."
The voice was so soft that it made people nauseous.
Jiang Wenjing frowned. Didn't he tell him to handle it?
Jiang Sulan walked past Xiao Siyuan and stood beside Jiang Wenjing: "Second brother, I know you want to protect me, but this kind of thing, ultimately I still need to deal with it myself."
Her tone was gentle, but she showed a tough attitude she had never had before.
Jiang Wenjing looked at her for a long time, then he took a half step back as if to compromise.
Jiang Sulan smiled and nodded to Jiang Zhiyu again.
Xiao Siyuan suddenly felt some inexplicable palpitations.
He looked at Jiang Sulan, smiled, and called her again.
Jiang Sulan had a blank expression on her face: "Your Highness, there's no need to pretend."
The smile on Xiao Siyuan's face almost disappeared, and his voice trembled: "Sulan, what are you talking about?"
"Your Highness knows it very well," Jiang Sulan didn't want to play around with him anymore. She took out the jade pendant on her body and showed it to everyone: "This is the jade pendant that Your Highness gave me during the autumn hunt. When it was given to me, Zhiyu reached out and snatched it away. I was a little bit blaming him, but later I learned that the jade pendant was covered with poison."
The surroundings were suddenly filled with shock.
Xiao Siyuan gritted his teeth and said, "There is something fishy about this matter. I only found out about it afterwards. There was a traitor among me. Knowing that I was going to give you this jade pendant, he filled it with poison, hoping to make it look like I poisoned the Prime Minister's daughter."
Jiang Sulan sneered, "Since Your Highness knew, why didn't you explain to me for such a long time? You didn't even send someone?"
"This..." Xiao Siyuan's eyes wandered, "I, I was thinking that Jiang Zhiyu was known as a miracle doctor, and he must have seen through the clues of the jade pendant. You would be fine, so I didn't explain."
Jiang Zhiyu: "???"
"Don't be so ridiculous."
[Although I did cure the poison, I'm not your backup plan for excuses! ]
Xiao Siyuan turned a deaf ear to Jiang Zhiyu's accusations and stared at Jiang Sulan intently.
Jiang Sulan just thought it was ridiculous.
Xiao Siyuan now was just like the candy she was reluctant to eat when she was a child. She had been carefully preserving it. When she wanted to eat it, she opened it and found that it had been rotten at some point.
"Xiao Siyuan, if you are still entangled like this, don't blame me," Jiang Sulan said in a cold voice: "If you have this time, why don't you go see your sister?"
Xiao Siyuan's face suddenly turned pale, and sweat began to ooze out of his palms.
Xiao Siyuan's sister?
Isn't she the fifth princess Xiao Qingwu?
Why mention her now?
Everyone looked at each other, and a terrible idea also emerged from their minds.
"Why did His Majesty marry the princess to someone else right after you passed away, and why did he demote Concubine Duan?"
"Why didn't His Majesty, the Empress and the Queen Mother show up on the princess' wedding day, and the princess didn't even come back."
"Is all this a coincidence?"
Jiang Sulan whispered these three sentences into Xiao Siyuan's ear, like the whispers of a devil. With each sentence, Xiao Siyuan's face turned a little paler, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
Although the onlookers didn't hear these sentences, imagination is what people have the most.
Especially in this regard.
Xiao Siyuan could almost hear what everyone was talking about.
He clenched his teeth and finally stopped pretending. When he looked at Jiang Sulan's affectionate eyes, there was a chill in them.
Jiang Sulan was no less impressed.
When did Jiang Sulan know this? From what she said, could it be that his father also knew this?
His breathing became rapid, and it was obvious that he could no longer control his emotions.
He turned and left.
Jiang Sulan exhaled lightly, a faint smile on her lips, and looked at Jiang Zhiyu: "Am I awesome?"
"Superb. I was wondering why there were three elements missing from the periodic table. It turns out that magnesium aluminum is here, and my zinc is here too."
Jiang Zhiyu looked sincere.
Jiang Sulan couldn't help laughing out loud: "You're talking incomprehensible words again."
"Well, he probably won't come again in the future. I bought some pastries from the vegetarian shop. Come and eat them. It will get cold if you delay any longer."
Jiang Zhiyu responded, and Jiang Wenjing also stepped into the mansion.
He Yanting was about to go back home when he saw Jiang Zhiyu suddenly turn around: "Why are you standing there? Didn't you eat either?"
[Given a fruit, you've been holding it until now.]
[Didn't you say you didn't want to eat alone?]
He Yanting didn't expect her to call him and was stunned.
Although Jiang Wenjing's face was full of impatience, he didn't say anything to stop her. Jiang Sulan also watched with a smile.
Various emotions flashed through his heart, and finally turned into a very light "OK."
He followed them into the mansion, and Chi Yan also went back to the stable.
