Chapter 33
Pushing someone into the water
ah.
What?
Jiang Zhaoying was stunned for a moment. Before she could ask what was going on, she saw Princess Tingyun lower her eyes and spoke shyly with embarrassment.
"Your Highness said that the detoxification pill was sent by your brother. I wanted to go to the Jiang Mansion to thank him, but I am a woman and it is a bit inappropriate, so I thought of going to the Song Mansion to meet you. Zhaoying, if there is a chance, I would like to meet your brother. I will always thank him in person to feel at ease."
As soon as she closed her eyes last night, she could hear him begging her to survive, saying that she must survive. Her ears felt hot and her head was buzzing.
So as soon as she got up, she mustered up the courage to rush here!
…
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became subtle. Jiang Zhaoying finally understood why the princess called out her brother's name as soon as she opened her mouth. It turned out that it was the Crown Prince who told her.
That's a bit embarrassing.
She...she really couldn't just say that it was her who appeared last night!
The bead curtain makes a crisp sound.
Shu Yun led three maids in, carrying various valuable items. Jiang Zhaoying hurriedly changed the subject.
"Princess, I don't know if these things are suitable or not, but I think you should be able to use them. I hope you don't mind."
There were all kinds of mild nourishing medicinal herbs suitable for her health, bird's nests and donkey-hide gelatin, beautiful silks, jewelry... basically everything she needed for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and also a silver note worth ten thousand taels of silver.
According to what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince whispered in her ear, Princess Tingyun's life in the palace was not just difficult, but it was difficult for her to survive.
Previous life.
She had never heard of any black material about Princess Tingyun, so when she thought of Princess Tingyun, she was eager to save her.
Seeing her is like seeing myself in the past, lonely and helpless, tortured to death.
Tingyun was so surprised by the long row of things in front of him that he stood up.
this.
This is too much. Why does it seem like a betrothal gift? There are even so many banknotes. Jiang Zhiyu is so good to me. Princess Tingyun's face flushed when she saw this.
Instead, it made her palm-sized face look pink and tender, with a very vivid color.
"Zhaoying..." Tingyun's heart was pounding. "I, although I don't know why your brother is so good to me, I am really grateful. Zhaoying, His Highness said that you look a lot like your brother, is that right?"
"Yes."
Jiang Zhaoying replied while gritting her teeth, then turned to look at Shu Yun and Shu Yu. They all seemed a little flustered for a moment.
She really wanted to explain that this was a gift from her to the princess, but the princess was so happy and shy. If she told the truth, the princess would be shocked and it would also be bad for her health.
That's all.
I will explain it in detail later.
only.
A man like my brother might not be worthy of the princess, so... Jiang Zhaoying decided to be the backup for the princess first.
"Princess, my brother is a well-known playboy in the capital. He is illiterate, has no official title, has no skills, and likes to get into trouble..."
"Bang……"
The words haven’t been finished yet.
The princess then put the tea in her hand heavily on the table, frowned and looked at Jiang Zhaoying with an unhappy face.
Jiang Zhaoying's heart suddenly began to tighten.
"If the county lord doesn't believe me, you can go and ask around. My brother has been uneducated and unskilled for many years, and he is notorious in the capital."
Just saying.
The maid's voice sounded at the door.
"Miss, I am Qiangwei. The young master got a new set of headgear and asked me to bring it to you."
Shu Yu turned around and went out to get the things and brought them in. She looked at the exquisite ruby headpiece on the plate. Princess Tingyun was sitting on the chair, looking at the things on the plate quietly. After a while, she shifted her gaze to Jiang Zhaoying, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Before I came here, I asked Brother Liu Guang and Brother Ting An about it. They said that Jiang Zhiyu loves you the most and that he would send all the good things to your room. He would be happy if you were happy and unhappy if you were unhappy. He would always put you first in everything."
"At first I didn't believe there was such a good brother in the world, but now it seems that what they said must be true. But you, you despise him for not having knowledge, fame, and ability like others, and you keep saying bad things about him in front of me."
"Jiang Zhaoying..."
Princess Tingyun was so distressed that she shed tears.
"It's so rare to have someone who truly loves you. I dream of having this, but you just treat me like trash."
She does have many brothers, but none of them has ever cared for her or loved her, so she feels that what is the point of having power?
What do you need money for?
Sincerity is the most important thing.
Even if he is a playboy!
Thinking of this, Princess Tingyun felt more and more distressed for Jiang Zhiyu. Although she had never met him formally, the fact that he was her savior was enough.
When I looked at Jiang Zhaoying again, she no longer had the previous brightness, but was tinged with a hint of distance, and she stood up.
"I accept all these gifts. You don't need to thank me on my behalf. I will thank Jiang Zhiyu in person someday."
How could such a good person be despised like this? A playboy is also a human being, and a princess like her who is not loved or cared for is also a human being.
"Princess."
Jiang Zhaoying was at a loss after being scolded by Princess Tingyun. She stood up and wanted to explain something, but looking at the tears on her face, Jiang Zhaoying really couldn't say a word.
Jiang Zhiyu is not as good as she imagined!
It is true that he gave her this set of jewelry, but usually that means he was in trouble and needed her to solve it.
"You don't have to say anything. I won't come again. Sorry for disturbing you today."
Tingyun looked at Jiang Zhaoying with some disappointment, thinking that it was really pitiful for Jiang Zhiyu to have such a sister. After saying these words, he signaled the palace servants around him to take all the things, then turned and left.
It was not until Shu Yun said that Princess Yun had boarded the carriage that Jiang Zhaoying's face darkened and she turned to ask Qiangwei, who had come from the Jiang Mansion and had been waiting for her to ask questions.
"What trouble did my brother get into?"
Qiangwei was a maidservant beside Jiang Zhiyu. She came in and bowed politely only after she heard the young lady asking questions.
"The eldest young master pushed the son of the Minister of Rites into the water."
"Dead?"
"No, no."
Qiangwei waved her hands hurriedly, and Jiang Zhaoying breathed a sigh of relief.
Falling into the water is not a big deal, as there are servants following you, so you should be rescued quickly, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
After stammering, Rose continued timidly.
"It was pushed on the gentle boat."
Jiang Zhaoying stood up, anger flashing in her eyes.
Wenroufang is a large and beautiful pleasure boat that is docked on the Huai River. On the first, tenth and thirtieth day of every month, the top three prostitutes in Tianxiang Tower will stay in the pleasure boat. At night, they will compete with each other. Whoever has the highest patron pays will be the top prostitute for the next ten days.
so.
Jiang Zhiyu was fighting with Xiao Shuhuai for the beauty, and then he pushed the other person into the water?
This is serious!
