Chapter 32 Fate always favors her
"How did Miss Jiang deal with those assassins? Did she find out who was behind this from them?"
Although she knew the answer, in order to avoid making her identity as a "prophet" too obvious and arousing suspicion, she had to pretend to be confused in front of her subordinates.
Song Liu continued, "Miss Jiang ordered the maid to tie them up and send them to the government office. I secretly interrogated two of them. They said that the employer was a young masked woman with a slender figure and about the same height as Miss Jiang. They did not know her identity."
"Young woman? The one who has the most deep hatred with Miss Jiang, the one I can think of for now is her half-sister Jiang Yuxi."
The original author designed Jiang Yuxi as a born villain. She has been bad since she was a child. She wants to compete with Jiang Rumin in everything and regards Jiang Rumin as her lifelong enemy.
Jiang Yuxi's character is so bad that as an outsider, she has no way of changing the relationship between the two sisters. Since she chose to protect Jiang Rumin from the beginning, she cannot be merciful to Jiang Yuxi.
However, Jiang Yuxi is always with Jun Tianyi now, so it is not easy to attack her. We have to wait until Jiang Yuxi leaves the protection of Prince Yi's Mansion.
After all, the lives of subordinates are also lives, and it would be good if it could save them some effort.
"Send two more people to keep an eye on Jiang Yuxi's movements."
Song Yunchu ordered, "If she goes out and is protected by someone from Prince Yi's Mansion, don't alert the enemy. If you catch her alone, arrest her immediately and be sure to act cautiously."
"yes."
…
It rained heavily for two hours until the evening when the rain gradually subsided.
In the quiet courtyard, there was a sound of porcelain breaking.
"What a waste! Five of us can't even deal with Jiang Rumin!"
Jiang Yuxi learned that the person she hired failed again, and angrily threw the teacup to the ground, "Are the two girls around Jiang Rumin so powerful?"
"Miss, calm down. This should have been possible, but something unexpected happened."
The maidservant beside her sighed, "The two maids beside the young lady are indeed quite skilled, but they can't beat five people. The weather was bad at that time, and there were few pedestrians on the street, but the young lady was lucky. Someone passed by that alley and saved her. This person was also very skilled, more powerful than the two maids combined, so the people we sent out failed."
"This bitch is always so lucky! Last time she was assassinated, it was Prime Minister Song who saved her. This time, a nosy person suddenly appeared out of nowhere... Why does fate always favor her? It allows her to survive every desperate situation!"
Jiang Yuxi was so angry that she said something she didn't want to say. "When will this bitch completely disappear from my life? With her around, I can't live a peaceful life!"
"Miss, don't get so angry that you get sick. You've already failed, so just calm down and wait for the next chance."
The maid stroked Jiang Yuxi's back and said soothingly, "Hasn't His Majesty granted you and the prince a marriage? He also granted her to Lord Song. There is no possibility for her and the prince to be together anymore. Why do you care so much about her life or death?"
"What do you know, you stupid girl? Do you really think the prince has completely let her go?"
Jiang Yuxi sneered, "When the prince is with me, he often looks absent-minded. He says that he doesn't care about Jiang Rumin anymore, but there is still a portrait of Jiang Rumin in his study! Tell me, if he really doesn't care, what's the point of keeping that portrait? He should erase all traces of Jiang Rumin!"
In her opinion, Jun Tianyi was reluctant to destroy anything related to Jiang Rumin, which meant that he still cared about her.
My mother once said that the more a man can’t get something, the more he misses it. Men also like to say one thing and mean another, so what they say may not be consistent with what they think.
So she firmly refused to believe what Jun Tianyi said about forgetting Jiang Rumin.
Instead of waiting for Jun Tianyi to give up, it would be better for her to act quickly and make Jiang Rumin disappear from this world completely. By then, even if Jun Tianyi has many ideas, he will only forget them with time.
Jiang Yuxi calmed down and asked the maid, "Who saved Jiang Rumin? Did you find out?"
The maid shook her head. "I only know that he was a handsome young man, and he was traveling with his sister. After the eldest lady was rescued, they took shelter in the tea shed for a while, and waited for the servants to bring an umbrella before leaving. I asked the owner of the tea shed, and he said that the brother and sister did not look like locals, and might be the children of wealthy merchants from other places. The man had a large piece of cloud-patterned mutton-fat jade hanging on his waist."
As the maid spoke, she raised her hand to indicate the size of the jade pendant.
Jiang Yuxi rolled her eyes.
With just these few features, she had no idea which family he was from.
If she knew who that nosy guy was, she would send people to set fire to that house to vent her hatred.
Jiang Rumin had suffered two assassination attempts in a short period of time, so she would definitely be more vigilant in the future. Now that she is Song Xiang's fiancée, Song Xiang would protect her to some extent. If Song Xiang sends more people to protect her, it would be even more difficult for her to take action in the future.
Jiang Yuxi was just feeling distressed when she heard a servant come over to report, "Second Miss, the prince is here!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuxi quickly ordered the maid to clean up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and then she straightened her hair and sleeves to make sure she looked neat and tidy before going to open the door.
Not far away, Jun Tianyi's figure was slowly approaching.
Jiang Yuxi hurried forward to greet him, "Your Highness, you are here at this hour, so I guess you haven't had dinner yet? Come in and have a cup of hot tea to moisten your throat first."
Jun Tianyi was in a bad mood when he came here, and he thought that seeing the person he liked would help. However, when he looked at Jiang Yuxi's gentle smile, the annoyance in his heart did not decrease at all.
"Yuxi, I'm in a bad mood and want to talk to you."
"Of course I am willing to listen to what the prince has in mind."
The two of them came into the house and sat down. Jiang Yuxi asked with concern, "Why are you so depressed, Your Majesty?"
"It's all because of that bastard named Song. I think there's something fishy about him saving the princess of a neighboring country, and the Dali Temple's opinion agrees with mine."
When mentioning Song Yunchu, Jun Tianyi's eyes became a little colder.
"I have a big feud with Song Yunchu. If I tell His Majesty about my suspicion of him, His Majesty might think that I am taking the opportunity to take revenge. The Dali Temple Minister took this into consideration and advised me not to come forward. There is no hatred between him and Song Yunchu, so it is more appropriate for him to tell His Majesty."
"I originally thought that after his reminder, Your Majesty would be wary of Song Yunchu, but Your Majesty still believed in that bastard as always! How can I not be angry?"
When Jun Tianyi became angry, he clenched his fists.
