Chapter 947 Sisters Reunited
Jiang Xue's face darkened: "Are you saying that Yuyin took the poison herself?"
"That's right." Huangfu Shang said affirmatively.
Jiang Xue had mixed feelings, but since she was already here, she decided to go in and see Jiang Yuyin.
When she entered the room, she saw her sister lying on the couch, her face as pale as paper, and she couldn't help but feel pity for her.
When Jiang Yuyin saw her sister, she wanted to get up, but was stopped by Jiang Xue.
"You are weak, just lie down and talk."
Then, Jiang Xue turned to Jiang Xiaoan and said, "Mr. Jiang, please check the princess' pulse first."
Jiang Xiaoan responded immediately, and after checking Jiang Yuyin's pulse for a while, he comforted her, "Don't worry, Princess. Although she is weak from taking poison, her life is not in danger."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuyin explained: "Aunt, I just wanted to see you, and I controlled the dosage so that I would not be seriously hurt."
Jiang Xue stared at her sister and said firmly, "Yuyin, I can't take you back home. You should give up this idea."
However, Jiang Yuyin laughed out loud: "I know you won't take me back, and I have no such plans."
Jiang Xue stared at the woman in front of her, finding it hard to understand why she would risk her life by taking poison just to see him.
"Yuyin, I thought you never wanted to see me again."
"How could I not want to see you? You are my biological sister in the world. Now I am wandering in a distant foreign country, and you appear here. Of course I want to see you." There was a hint of complexity in Yuyin's eyes.
Jiang Xue was very surprised: "Are you saying that you took poison to see me because you missed me?"
"What if I say yes?"
Yuyin asked back, "Sister, will you believe it?"
"Do you think I will believe it?" Jiang Xue questioned.
"I know you don't believe me. After all, I've done so many evil things to you." Yuyin smiled bitterly. "But aunt, I really thought about you many times."
"Miss you? You don't want to express your longing in this way, do you?"
“From childhood to adulthood, my father, mother, and brothers have all loved you, and although I was also loved, I always ranked second to you.
This made me jealous and resentful, and I wanted nothing more than to take your place, which ultimately led to me doing the things that hurt you.”
Yuyin said slowly, "I always thought I would continue to hate him like this, until I married into Tianshui Country and realized how wrong I was.
When I was little, you were indeed more favored than me, but later on you shouldered far more responsibilities than I did. When I was still living a carefree life, you fought hard to protect the country at the frontier.
Without your sacrifice, how could I be a princess safely? I shouldn't be jealous and resentful of you, let alone scheme against you, because you are my protective umbrella.
It was not until I experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature and suffered countless cold stares that I realized this. Sister, can you forgive me for what I did in the past? "
"To be honest, I find it hard to believe what you are saying."
Jiang Xue replied: "But if this is the truth, then the accounts between us have been settled and there is no more grudge between us.
As long as you don't hurt me again, I will do my best to protect you even if you are far away. Is there anything else you want to say? If not, I will go back to the embassy. "
"etc!"
Yuyin called her: "There is one more thing."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Xue asked.
“Huangfu Shang told me that you and Yun Che have been together for a long time?” Jiang Xue nodded in confirmation and waited for her reaction.
"Sister, I sincerely wish you all the best."
This sentence not only surprised Jiang Xue, but also Jiang Xiaoan who was standing next to her showed a puzzled expression, thinking that the matter was too strange.
Yuyin smiled and explained: "I know you don't believe me. But every word I said today was from the heart.
You are my biological sister, and Yun Che is the only man I have ever truly loved. Seeing how well you two match each other, I am sincerely happy for you. "
Jiang Xue conveyed her gratitude to Yun Che and asked if there was anything else.
Seeing the other party shaking his head, she was ready to leave. Jiang Yuyin said gently that she was satisfied to be able to talk to her and share her inner thoughts.
After saying goodbye, Jiang Xue left quickly. Huangfu Shang joked, "The reunion of the Princess and Princess An Ning was too hasty."
Jiang Xue replied that sincere communication does not depend on the length of time, but on whether the sincerity is conveyed.
Regarding Jiang Yuyin's words, she frankly said that she didn't even believe them, especially those words of apology and missing her didn't sound real.
Huangfu Shangze believes that people can change, and perhaps Princess An Ning is sincere.
Jiang Xue hoped so, but it was late at night and she decided to go back.
On the way back, the moonlight shone on Jiang Xue and Jiang Xiaoan, casting long shadows.
Jiang Xiaoan curiously asked Jiang Xue what she thought of Princess An Ning's words. Jiang Xue admitted that although she had doubts in her heart, it would be a good thing if her sister really repented.
After all, blood is thicker than water, and hatred between relatives is not a good thing.
Jiang Xiaoan was silent. He understood that Jiang Xue was under a lot of unimaginable pressure, and therefore understood why Xiao Zhan cared about her so much.
After Jiang Xue returned to the envoy's villa, she lay on the bed with a lot of thoughts in her mind.
She recalled that when she was little, her younger sister Jiang Yuyin always pestered her to play. At that time, Jiang Yuyin was only two or three years old and was very dependent on her sister.
However, Jiang Xue found her sister annoying at the time and often ignored her, which eventually led to a growing distance between the sisters.
Now that the relationship between the sisters has deteriorated, Jiang Xue realizes that she also has an unshirkable responsibility.
She sighed softly and decided to give her sister a chance. After all, they might never meet again in the future, and this might make her feel better.
The next morning, Emperor Tianshui summoned Jiang Xue.
In the palace, she bowed respectfully: "Your Highness, your servant Jiang Xue pays respect to you."
"It is an honor for Princess Changle to be my envoy to Tianshui. No need for formalities," said the emperor.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Jiang Xue got straight to the point: "The Third Prince must have informed the Emperor of the purpose of this trip."
"Yes, but I'm afraid I'll disappoint the princess," the emperor responded.
Jiang Xue smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, why don't you listen to me for a few more words? I am confident that you will change your mind after listening to me."
The emperor smiled and said, "You are very sure."
"It's not that I'm sure, but Gan State is sincere. If Tianshui is willing to join forces with Gan State to fight against Xixia, Gan State is willing to give two-thirds of its territory to Tianshui after Xixia is destroyed.
Even if no war is fought in the end, the Qian Kingdom will compensate Xixia with the other half of the treasure in southern Xinjiang." Jiang Xue said.
Emperor Tianshui was extremely surprised: "Are you serious?"
"Your Majesty, I am the Princess Regent and would never joke about such a big thing."
Jiang Xue said seriously: "Gan Guo is very sincere, why not consider our proposal?"
"But why pay such a high price?" asked the emperor.
"In order to put pressure on Xixia as quickly as possible, we can only achieve our goal by cooperating with Tianshui, so we are willing to make such a sacrifice."
"Why do you have to do this?"
