Chapter 128 Breaking into the Princess's Mansion
"What are you strolling around for? Shanning is in big trouble." In fact, Shanning was also implicated. It was because the current emperor only had two princes and not even a princess.
Therefore, apart from the eldest princess, Shanning is the only royal heir.
The children born to the previous emperor's daughter were either of unequal age or already had their own families.
Therefore, Shanning is now the most suitable person.
"What trouble?" Jiang Ce immediately became nervous when he heard that Shan Ning was in trouble.
"The Qiu Kingdom is coming to pay tribute to the court. I heard that not only are they paying tribute, but they are also asking to marry our princess. But where can we find a princess in our country? After all the calculations, only Shan Ning meets the criteria." Xia Yutong said maliciously.
What's the big deal about asking for marriage? It's just empty talk on her part.
Even if the other country is interested, the players haven't arrived yet, so how can we know their intentions?
He is still too young and was fooled after just a few words.
After listening to this, Jiang Ce dropped his bowl and chopsticks and ran out.
Xia Zixuan was worried and wanted to follow, but was stopped by his elder sister and Xiaoxiao.
"Don't meddle in other people's business." They said in unison.
Xia Zixuan was confused: "What about Brother Jiang?"
"He's fine, he'll just be beaten at most." With the eldest princess's temper, he would definitely be beaten.
An Xiaoxiao and Shan Ning have known each other longer, and have also known the eldest princess longer, so they know a little about her temperament.
Xia Yutong shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be the case, but after today, I'm afraid your brother Jiang will make a breakthrough." Xia Yutong was still quite optimistic about Jiang Ce.
He is older than Zixuan and the others, and he is very protective of them on a daily basis.
It is a blessing for Zixuan and his friends to have such a good friend.
The four of them are like brothers.
Xia Zixuan was not stupid. "Will the princess agree?" he asked a little worriedly.
No one knows Jiang Ce's background better than him.
"I will agree. What you think is a big trouble is just a matter of a word in the eyes of the eldest princess." Xia Yutong said.
This matter only requires the help of one person, and that is His Majesty.
Shan Ning had just arrived home and was crying to her mother when she heard that someone had broken into the Princess's mansion.
The eldest princess laughed angrily, "Bring the person in. It's only been so many years, and someone actually dared to break into my eldest princess's mansion. Do they think I don't exist?" This time, she was really angry.
Soon, Jiang Ce was brought back in.
When Shanning saw the person kneeling in the hall, he was so scared that he fell down on the chair.
As soon as the eldest princess opened her mouth, Shan Ning stood up from her chair.
"Mother." she cried.
The eldest princess was confused and turned to look at her, thinking she was afraid. "Don't be afraid, mother is here." She patted Shan Ning's back gently twice, telling her not to be afraid.
Maybe because she had scared Shanning just now, the princess calmed down a little.
"Tell me, why did you break into my Princess's mansion?" How could the Lord not know it? But, boy, you dare to break into my mansion, so you have to explain the matter yourself.
That’s right, how could the princess not know Jiang Ce?
Her Shan Ningyuan went to Nancheng, how could she not send someone to follow and keep an eye on her.
What if something happens to her Shan Ning?
You know, she only has this one daughter in her life.
She can touch anyone but her daughter, otherwise, she will do her best to protect her daughter.
Jiang Ce and Shan Ningke had no idea that their little troubles had already been reported to the princess. In order to prevent Shan Ning's reputation from being damaged, Jiang Ce put all the blame on himself.
"So, you are seducing my daughter." The eldest princess laughed angrily.
If this matter gets out, Shan Ning's reputation will be ruined. This kid is really still a little young.
"Okay, Grandma Rong, go and knock on it." After saying that, she waved her hand and let an old woman go down.
This person was none other than Granny Rong, who served beside the eldest princess. She had been with the eldest princess for decades and understood her thoughts very well.
After the servants in the front hall had left, the eldest princess walked down from the platform.
"Jiang Ce, the illegitimate son of the Lord of Nancheng Mansion, is the third child. He is not favored by the Lord of Jiang Mansion and has a concubine living in the backyard of the Jiang Mansion." The eldest princess told everything she knew.
Now it was not only Jiang Ce who was surprised, Shan Ning was also surprised.
"Mother, you investigate him." Shan Ning said angrily.
The eldest princess looked at her silly daughter with a loving face and said, "How can I feel at ease if you go to South City alone? Of course I have to send people to follow you. Since you don't allow those people to appear in front of you, I have no choice but to let them follow secretly."
My own daughter is still a little more naive.
But fortunately, I have grown a little after coming back from this trip.
Looking at Jiang Ce who was still kneeling on the ground, the eldest princess smiled at him and said, "Get up."
Jiang Ce might have been confused at first, but now, he is not stupid.
I think the princess already knew about my situation and was just waiting for me to come.
If it weren’t for…
How could I be worthy of Princess Shanning?
Jiang Ce sighed inwardly.
The eldest princess has lived in the palace since she was a child and has seen too many intrigues. Jiang Ce, a thin-skinned man, cannot cause any trouble under her nose.
His thoughts were all shown on his face and were easy to read.
"Since you know that you are not worthy of Shan Ning, why did you break into my princess mansion again this time?" The eldest princess really didn't understand this.
She didn't know that Xia Yutong had scared Jiang Ce.
Jiang Ce didn't dare to hide it anymore and directly sold Xia Yutong out.
Of course, if it were someone else, he would never say it even if he was beaten to death.
After hearing this, the eldest princess was so angry that she laughed.
"Two fools." The two of them didn't understand the tricks, so didn't she?
It was obvious that Xiaotong couldn't bear to see the two of them being so heartbroken, so she made up an excuse for them.
Besides, who would give a small country the face to ask to marry her daughter?
But it's best to get things settled first.
"Jiang Ce, do you really want to marry my Shan Ning?" asked the eldest princess.
Jiang Neng was of course sincere and nodded immediately, "Yes, Jiang Ce sincerely requests the princess to marry Princess Shanning to me." That's right, marry her.
His status is not worthy of Shanning.
Shan Ning's face had already turned red with embarrassment, and when she heard the words of her beloved, she became even more angry.
"I'm not going to pay any attention to you guys." After a coquettish cry, Shan Ning ran away.
The eldest princess ignored her and just laughed and scolded her, "This girl, you are already so old, and you are still shy."
He personally stepped forward and helped Jiang Ce up.
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry. Since you really want to be with Shan Ning, then I will help you. However, do you know about Shan Ning's previous breakup?"
She is not a vicious woman. In some matters, it is best for both parties to be affectionate and righteous.
If there is a gap between them, it is better not to marry.
Jiang Neng was very sure in his heart that he loved Shan Ning.
"Don't mind. The Li family dared to hurt Shan Ning. This matter is not over." Jiang Ce said hatefully.
"You?" The eldest princess said happily, "You're still far from it, but it's okay. It won't be too late to apply when you have the ability in the future."
She was quite satisfied with the child.
Much better than Li Yutang.
