Chapter 286 Thoughts
"You're right, aren't you? Take me back? I'm an exiled bastard now and I can't leave the island at all."
Jiang Wan didn't want to go back to Kyoto at all.
Kyoto is a long way from Lizhou Island, and the news that my skincare products are good has definitely not spread back yet. The most that people in Kyoto know is that I made seafood sauce and sold it.
In the eyes of her scumbag father, doing business and selling food is simply not a decent behavior. So this time these people wanted to take her back, it was definitely not for the recipe or something.
What use is a daughter in this era? Considering that the scumbag father doesn't love his daughter, the only option is a marriage of convenience.
Damn it, what a beast!
I found a husband for myself when I was only twelve years old?
No way, no way? ?
Jiang Wan could hardly keep the smile on her face.
"Don't worry, Miss. Our master is married to the Minister of Revenue, so changing the household registration is just a small matter. Besides, you don't have to suffer with the Yin family in the first place. As long as your household registration is changed back, no one can say anything."
"I won't change, and I won't go back."
Jiang Wan refused very quickly, and Yin Huaixi also rejected Jiang An.
"Go back and tell your master that since he has given me his daughter, there is no reason for me to go back. If he dares to play tricks, my Yin family has connections in Kyoto. Be careful not to lose the rice while trying to steal the chicken."
Jiang An clenched his fists under the table, but he couldn't do anything to arrest people in the village.
Yin Huaixi's words still had some intimidation. If he dared to capture someone, she might really contact her connections in Kyoto to cause trouble.
It would be bad if it harmed my father and cousin.
This time when we go out, the master said that he must take good care of the eldest lady when she returns.
Jiang An's thoughts only lasted for a moment, and he quickly adjusted his facial expression.
"Ms. Yin, you should think about this carefully first. Kyoto is much better than here. If you go back, you will have beautiful clothes to wear every day, servants to serve you, and you can go out and play freely. More importantly, the master can find a good marriage for you."
As Jiang An said this, he looked around the yard with disdain.
"If you stay here, the eldest lady can only marry a man from the village. Don't you feel bad, Miss Yin?"
Yin Huaixi remained unmoved.
She had already felt distressed when she traveled through time. Now she has adjusted her mentality.
No matter what, she would never let her daughter go to that wolf's den in Kyoto.
"Guardian Jiang, please come in. My small temple cannot accommodate all these big Buddhas like you."
Seeing that both mother and daughter were stubborn, Jiang An wanted to lose his temper but he had to think about Jiang Wan, so he could only leave in disappointment.
"Boss, what should we do if we don't get the call?"
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Let's go to the city to find the county government. Let's go and transfer the young lady's household registration first."
The other guards' eyes lit up when they heard this.
Yes, once they get the eldest lady’s household registration, she will have no choice but to leave.
The group hurried to the ferry.
They never thought that they would fail to accomplish their mission, because when they arrived, the owner of the house had already written a letter with an official seal and asked them to take it to the local magistrate.
One is a seventh-rank county magistrate, the other is a fourth-rank deputy envoy, and his father is also a Beijing official. As long as the county magistrate is not stupid, he will do a favor.
The group had a good plan. If Jiang Wan had no contact with Qin Zhen, after seeing the letter from Kyoto, Qin Zhen would probably be grateful for Jiang Cheng's fatherly love and would do Jiang Wan a favor and release her.
But now Jiang Wan's buying and selling is almost tied to him, and he has also heard some of Jiang Wan's complaints about her father.
No matter how you look at it, Jiang Cheng has bad intentions.
If he really valued Jiang Wan, why did he let Jiang Wan follow her mother and suffer all the way here?
You know, it's normal for people to die on the road to exile, and even if they survive, their health will be in poor condition.
If Jiang Wan really loved her daughter, she wouldn't have appeared here.
Qin Zhen's eyes fell on the letter on the table. This was a letter from his mentor in Kyoto about the recent changes in the court.
One of the news was that the emperor had arranged a marriage for the eldest prince and the second prince.
My mentor talked in detail about the girl from an aristocratic family who was given a marriage, and also gave a brief analysis.
The mothers of the first and second princes died early, and their maternal families were not very prominent. The girls they married this time were mostly from families with no help.
I guess there is no hope for the position of crown prince.
In addition to the eldest and second princes, His Majesty also has two sons. One is the third prince, born to Consort Sheng Chong, and the other is the fourth prince, born to the Empress.
These two people are the most likely to become the crown prince.
Their ages, one is fourteen and the other twelve, will start to marry and take concubines in one or two years.
hiss……
Is it possible that Jiang Cheng, this shameless guy, is planning to target the princes?
Qin Zhen decided to stabilize Jiang An and his men, and then sent someone to Lianjiagou to ask Jiang Wan for her opinion.
If Jiang Wan wanted to leave, he would not stop her. But if she didn't want to, Jiang Cheng's people would not be able to take her away.
The mountains are high and the waters are far away; a fourth-rank official in Beijing cannot take charge of Lizhou Island.

Jiang Wan's face turned dark when she received the letter of inquiry from Lord Qin.
Those guys were so bold as to go to the county government and directly transfer their household registration!
It seems that they are very determined to bring me back this time.
The more anxious you are, the more evil your intentions appear.
There was no way Jiang Wan could go back, so only the guards had to stay.
Of course, she didn't mean to kill anyone. Although those guards were here to do bad things for their scumbag father, their crimes didn't deserve death.
Just give them a good beating and make them go back in disgrace.
Jiang Wan did not send a message to Lord Qin, but only told the messenger that she would go to the county government office to meet with Lord Qin tomorrow.
It’s hard to explain it clearly in a letter, so it’s better to talk about it in person.
"Wanwan, do you want your mother to go with you?"
"No need, I can discuss this with Lord Qin and it will be settled. Don't worry, mother, I will take care of this matter. Anyway, I will not leave you."
Yin Huaixi sighed softly. Since her daughter had decided to handle it herself, she should let her do it.
"Your father has obviously set his sights on you, and he probably wants to make trouble for your marriage. But as long as the household registration is in our hands, he can't do anything wrong."
Jiang Wan wasn't worried about this at all.
She is not the original owner, and she has no feelings for that scumbag father. Even if those people want to take her back to Kyoto, she will not cooperate obediently. She will only make the family's ugly deeds known to the whole city and offend a lot of people for him.
As for reputation?
Why would she need the fame of Kyoto when she is so far away in Lizhou Island?
Jiang Wan just wants to be a good girl in front of her mother and live a quiet life in the village.
I hope those guards don't have any bad intentions, otherwise I will send them to jail.
