Chapter 74 The reason why Xie Lingxi protected her
The residence of the Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness, the Beiyuan warehouse.
"This jade hairpin should have been bought by my aunt in Linglong Pavilion. Look, sister, the word Linglong is engraved here..." Jiang Wenxing held a jade hairpin and analyzed seriously.
He deliberately talked about irrelevant things and gave a detailed review and analysis of each piece of jewelry:
"Speaking of Linglong Pavilion in the capital, the jade hairpin is particularly famous. Do you like it, little sister? Tomorrow, I will go to Linglong Pavilion to pick one for you..."
Jiang Rong vaguely realized that he seemed to be delaying time.
I had some guesses in my mind again.
So the ancestral hall is not the key to the plan, but to hold myself back?
"The prince is here!" Feicui shouted loudly outside the door.
Jiang Rong turned around and saw a man in a gorgeous suit embroidered with gold and inlaid with jade, striding towards her. He had an extraordinary handsome face, and his facial features were as if they were carefully carved by a magician, exquisite and flawless.
"Husband!" Jiang Rong called out crisply, walked up to him gracefully and took his arm.
Jiang Wenxing was shocked when he saw Xie Lingxi coming.
What's going on?
Didn’t Jiang Wan lead him away?
Now that Xie Lingxi is here, what about Jiang Wan...
Jiang Wenxing had many thoughts in his mind in an instant, but seeing that Xie Lingxi's expression did not change at all, he asked enthusiastically:
"Why is the prince here? What's the matter?"
Feicui took over the conversation and said, "When I went back to deliver the jewelry box, I met the prince. When the prince heard that the princess was going to the ancestral temple to worship her parents, he specially accompanied her."
"My husband is so kind." Jiang Rong's eyes curved and she turned to look at Jiang Wenxing, "Let's go to the ancestral hall now."
Jiang Wenxing cursed Jiang Wan for her incompetence in his heart, but he forced a smile on his face, "Indeed, it's getting late, let's go."
The Jiang family's ancestral hall is located deep in the backyard.
Xie Lingxi was watching beside him...
Jiang Wenxing paid tribute to Jiang Qingyuan and his wife with a solemn and mournful look, even tears welling up in his eyes, and said a lot of nonsense to the tablet:
"Father and mother, your son has reached adulthood today and will take on the heavy responsibility of the Loyalty Earl's Mansion. I will take good care of my sister, and you two old people can rest in peace now."
Jiang Rong said nothing and silently lit three incense sticks for his parents.
I kowtowed three times seriously.
She will live well, don't worry, Dad and Mom.
Xie Lingxi's gaze fell on the tablets of Jiang Rong's parents. His deep eyes could not clearly see the expression, and there was not a single ripple.
Nineteen years ago, there was a big change.
If it weren't for the two of you, he and his mother would have died.
As the daughter of his benefactor, he will definitely protect her well.
Please rest assured, both of you.
This old story involves a huge secret. Now, no one knows about it except Xie Lingxi.
Xie Lingxi picked up a stick of incense, knelt down beside Jiang Rong and burned it.
Jiang Wenxing was deeply shocked.
Although this is in line with the etiquette of the younger generation, given the precious status of the prince and Xie Lingxi's reputation as an unreasonable playboy, Jiang Wenxing thought that he simply disdained to offer sacrifices.
He actually likes Jiang Rong so much!
Is it possible for Jiang Wan's seduction plan to succeed?
Jiang Rong saw Xie Lingxi worshipping together, his eyebrows slightly curved, looking at the two elders' tablets, silently reciting in his heart:
Mom and Dad, this is my daughter's husband. My daughter has met a very good man.
Come out from the ancestral hall.
Seeing that today's plan had failed, Jiang Wenxing no longer cared about Jiang Wan. The time for the coming-of-age ceremony was approaching, and he still had a lot to prepare...
"There are a lot of things going on at home today, so I won't disturb you two. My sister and the prince can do as they please." Jiang Wenxing smiled and left.
Jiang Rong waited for his figure to disappear, then looked at Xie Lingxi, "This Jiang Wenxing seems to be deliberately dragging me along, has the prince encountered any strange things?"
The Jiang family's plan against her was either to target her or her husband.
The one dragging her was probably the prince...
"Yingxia said you were in the South Garden Plum Garden and wanted to see me for something." Xie Lingxi said.
"The Plum Garden Hot Spring?" Jiang Rong reacted instantly.
That's where the women of the Jiang family bathe and change clothes.
The person in the Plum Garden should be... Jiang Wan!
Does she want to rely on the prince?
Or, in her eyes, this playboy husband of hers can be easily seduced?
A cold and cruel light flashed in Jiang Rong's eyes.
Since you want to get married so much.
Then I will send you a "dream husband".
"Fei Cui, find a maid who looks unfamiliar to you, pretend to be a maid in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, and ask Shen Wenyuan for help..." Jiang Rong ordered.
Shen Wenyuan grew up in the Jiang family. He knew that Nanyuan Plum Garden was a hot spring...
If she told him, Jiang Wan would meet him in the Plum Garden.
He might raise alarm bells.
In his eyes, the ones who were a good match for him were naturally the daughters of the left and right chancellors, the daughters of the dukes, or the princesses of the royal family...
The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is a princeling party with tremendous power. I believe he would be very happy to have a good relationship with the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
"Yes." Jadeite accepted the order.
"Let's go check where Xun Shiyu is first. If she is near Shen Wenyuan, then we can change her name to the daughter of the Right Prime Minister Fan... Other candidates include the daughter of the Duke of Anguo and the princess of the Princess Huayang's mansion..."
Feicui was convinced by what she heard. The Crown Prince's wife was really thoughtful!
…
Shen Wenyuan was particularly humble and low-key today.
Instead of chatting with the other young masters, he greeted guests outside the door like a member of the Jiang family.
This was of course a show for Master Shen.
If Master Shen had not valued the Jiang family so much, he would not have come to this mere loyal and righteous mansion.
"Master Shen, have you seen our young lady? I was strolling in the garden with the young lady, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye... Has our young lady returned to the banquet hall?" a maid asked worriedly.
Shen Wenyuan looked puzzled, "You are..."
"I am Miss Xun's maid. I once went to the Shen family with Miss to congratulate her." The maid said anxiously, "I wanted to ask the Jiang family to help me find her, but I couldn't find anyone for a while..."
Xun Shiyu?
Shen Wenyuan reacted.
Today, the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion also sent people to congratulate, and several young masters and daughters of the Xun family came.
His father was an old-fashioned man who refused to accept any of the olive branches extended by the three princes and was solely loyal to the emperor.
But the one he favors in his heart is the prince!
This Duke's daughter is a good match for him. Of course, it doesn't necessarily mean that Xun Shiyu will be the one...
He was also considering several other young ladies from the Duke's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion.
But no matter what, it is necessary to make friends with Miss Xun.
"The Jiang family's garden is full of twists and turns, so it's no surprise that Miss Xun got lost. Take me to the place where she got separated. I'm familiar with this place and I can help you find it." Shen Wenyuan immediately said enthusiastically.
"Thank you so much, Master Shen!" The maid stepped forward to lead the way.
When they reached the south side of the garden, the maid said in embarrassment, "The young lady disappeared here."
"It seems that she took the wrong road and went to the Plum Garden." Shen Wenyuan said.
The plum garden is connected to the flower garden, so someone might take the wrong path and go around it...
He didn't think much about it for a moment.
As for the hot spring in the Plum Garden.
The Jiang family would always use it at night after locking the door and having their maids clear the plum garden and guard it.
There are so many guests here today, it is unlikely that someone would bathe in broad daylight in public...
Shen Wenyuan saw that there were no maids guarding around, so he had never thought of this...
It was not until they entered the Plum Garden that Shen Wenyuan and Jiang Wan, who was posing in the hot spring, made eye contact.
