Judging from Da Meng's feelings, unless Xiao Lan is a truly wicked person, he will not give up on her no matter what the outcome is.
Qiao Lian'er said, "Xiao Lan has to see her adoptive mother off to her final days and will not be back in the capital for some time. I plan to start with Jiang Shijing. If his madness can be cured, it will be a great turning point."
Jiang Shijing was, after all, the eldest son of the main branch and was originally highly regarded by Master Jiang, so Madam Wei dared not make any obvious moves against him. As for Princess Shouguang, she was a loser in the struggle over the years, and her usefulness was about to be exhausted, so Qiao Lian'er would not make any moves on her first.
“Although Jiang Shijing is mad and unruly, he has some interests. He likes to go to Langxuan Garden to watch plays, and he goes there almost every two or three days. The rest of the time, he plays Cuju (ancient Chinese football), Touhu (ancient Chinese pitch-pot), and strolls around eating and drinking,” Pei Shijiu said.
Qiao Lian'er was somewhat surprised: "You know quite a lot about him."
Pei Shijiu said with some pity, "We were friends when we were young. It's such a pity that he turned out like this."
“I also thought about helping him, and I found a good doctor for him privately, but they couldn’t find anything wrong.”
He frowned: "Wei is ruthless and vicious, she eats people without spitting out the bones, I despise her just the same."
Qiao Lian'er thought that medical conditions in ancient times were very limited, and even the most skilled doctors had many areas they could not access.
If even her future medical team can't save her, then she's truly beyond saving.
To prevent the Wei family from making a move prematurely, Pei Shijiu dispatched a team of top-notch experts to Yunzhou to protect Xiao Lan's family.
When Qiao Lian'er left, she contacted a gang in Yunzhou and asked them to look after the Ye family in Xiamei Village.
But if Weiss were to take action, a beating would be far from enough.
The next day, she met Jiang Shijing at Langxuan Garden.
Jiang Shijing was dressed in white, but the sash on the front of his robe was not tied properly, making him look disheveled. His hair was also not carefully styled; it was simply tied up with a hairpin, and the loose strands were somewhat messy.
He was quite handsome, as if sculpted from jade, but his eyes were filled with infatuation and madness, as if everything was shrouded in mist, and he seemed not to have woken up from a dream.
"I heard today's show was good, and the guests are clamoring to see it again."
Jiang Shijing rested his elbow on his servant's shoulder and laughed cynically: "In the end, it was that guest who was incompetent. He wanted me to be satisfied and made the theater do it three more times. The theater dared not disobey."
His steps faltered slightly, he bumped into a stone, and stumbled again.
Qiao Lian'er watched this scene from under the pavilion and couldn't help but shake her head slightly.
A perfectly good eldest son has turned into this; what should have been his is about to be taken away by others.
However, she did not dare to disturb Jiang Shijing now, as Madam Wei was very wary of him and might have sent someone to keep an eye on him.
She avoids working under Wei's watchful eye, which saves her a lot of trouble.
She first went to the Jiang family to find out where Jiang Shijin lived, and then went to see Princess Shouguang.
Princess Shouguang got out of bed and lay on the soft couch in the courtyard to bask in the sun. She was not as emaciated as Xiao Lan's adoptive mother, Madam Yin, but she was still much thinner than normal, light and weak, and her skin was pale.
The sunlight shone on her face, making the layer of bluish death aura even more obvious.
Judging from this, Princess Shouguang won't last another month. A month later, Jiang Shuxue will marry into the Zhong family.
This timing was perfectly calculated by Weiss.
