Chapter 13 Wei You's Resentment



"It's good that you remember," Jingyan said, putting his mind at ease.

He didn't think it was wrong for Yue Jiang to remember them, after all, Yue Jiang had always claimed from the beginning that she was a princess of the Yue Kingdom and came from the Yue Kingdom.

These are all Yue people who came with Yue Jiang; they have known each other for an unknown period of time.

However, Yue Jiang had misremembered the prince who was to be married off to the Jing Kingdom, and was misled by her own words, which led her to believe that she was marrying the prince of the Jing Kingdom.

He nodded and gave a few instructions to the Yue Kingdom servants: "The princess injured her head yesterday, so please take good care of her. If you need anything, just tell me and I will prepare it."

"Yes!" the three replied in unison.

Yesterday, Rong Ying had already warned them, and Jing Yan saw that they were quite sensible, so he entrusted Yue Jiang to them with peace of mind, telling them to quickly wash and groom Yue Jiang before setting off.

After Jing Yan left the tent, before Yue Jiang could wash up, General Shan apologized to her: "Princess, it was my dereliction of duty that caused you fright and disturbance on your journey. Please punish me!"

As the envoy sent to escort the princess, he not only failed to deliver her to Anguo, but also caused her to lose her memory and become the Crown Princess of Jingguo, bearing a heavy responsibility.

Unfortunately, the princess became the Crown Princess of Jing Kingdom, which ensured the safety of their entourage and prevented them from revealing the truth to the princess.

Dan Yi felt extremely ashamed and remorseful.

Yue Jiang observed that her body was covered in bruises, her arms were bandaged, her left thigh was wrapped in gauze, her shoulders were weak when she bowed, and there were abrasions on her face.

She remembered the horrifying scene of a large number of Feng Kingdom deserters rushing in yesterday. Even though there were many Yue Kingdom people who came with her, most of them were ordinary people who were powerless to even kill a chicken.

There were no brave and skilled soldiers to begin with, and the Yue Kingdom had never experienced war. On the way to the marriage alliance, Shan Yi could only command three thousand men to fight the enemy.

Shan Yi was the envoy for the marriage alliance personally selected by Yue Jiang in the Yue Kingdom. She valued him because he had no powerful backing and had risen to the position of deputy commander through his own abilities, which was already considered quite capable.

If it weren't for him yesterday, she wouldn't have been able to escape the fleeing soldiers from Feng State and avoid them for a while. If Jing State hadn't intervened, Yue Jiang would have been humiliated by the fleeing soldiers from Feng State on the spot.

Since Dan Yi, the envoy for the peace treaty, accompanied her into the Jing Kingdom, he would stay in the Jing Kingdom and become her person.

In order to make Shan Yi her right-hand man, she needs to gradually gain his trust, so that he will be loyal to her and serve her.

Therefore, before gaining Shan Yi's trust, one should not confide in him, and one should not reveal to him that one has not lost one's memory.

"General Shan, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable. I am very moved that you risked your life to protect me. Please don't feel guilty anymore. Fortunately..." Yue Jiang's voice was sweet, with a hint of satisfaction and shyness.

"Fortunately, Your Highness arrived in time. I was not seriously injured. It was all just a false alarm. You should take good care of your injuries."

“You are my envoy general for this marriage alliance. Yesterday, Anguo attacked, and many people must have died or been injured. The wounded can be compensated, but the dead who died far from home are truly pitiful.”

"Please comfort everyone for me. If they lack anything, the general will do his best to meet their needs."

“Princess…” Shan Yi was not old, only twenty-five or twenty-six.

Upon hearing this, the princess, who was originally to be married off to Anguo, lost her memory and took the crown prince of Jingguo as her husband, relying on him with all her heart.

His eyes trembled with tears, his lips parted but he couldn't speak, and he felt increasingly guilty.

"Alright, General Shan Yi, His Highness is about to break camp. The princess needs to get ready as soon as possible so as not to waste any time. Just do as the princess says."

Granny Ye was Yue Jiang's personal nanny, who raised her. She was also ordered by the King of Yue to accompany Yue Jiang, and her words carried considerable weight in the marriage procession.

Dan Yi knew he shouldn't reveal his unusual behavior too much, lest it arouse the suspicion of the amnesiac princess. He suppressed his tears, got up, and left the camp as Yue Jiang had instructed.

After everyone left, Yue Jiang looked at Granny Ye. Before she could speak, Granny Ye spoke first.

"This old servant knows that the princess was frightened. Fortunately, Your Highness arrived in time. Apart from being a little frightened, Qingke and I are unharmed."

"Princess, please take good care of yourself so that you can arrive in Jing Kingdom safely and fulfill the marriage alliance that both Yue and Jing Kingdoms hope for."

"Yes, this servant is fine, as long as the princess is safe," Qingke said comically, raising her face, which was covered with long, thin wounds from wild grass and branches.

This is from when they were fleeing from Feng Kingdom and the army, they ran and hid together in the wilderness, which was higher than waist-high. Qingke cleared the way and protected Yuejiang, which is why she became covered in wounds.

She raised her hand to wipe away Qingke's tears: "Don't cry, tears will only make the wound hurt more."

Granny Ye and Qingke were Yuejiang's closest companions and knew her best. Hearing them talk about it to this extent, she must have assumed that Yuejiang had amnesia.

Having said all that, everyone understood, and she said no more.

"Granny and Qingke, hurry up and help me wash up. Don't keep His Highness waiting," Yue Jiang said, straightening her posture and letting the two of them take care of her.

During the treatment, Granny Ye carefully avoided Yue Jiang's forehead. Although she couldn't see the wound under the gauze, she still sobbed with heartache.

"The princess is such a beautiful person, it must be so painful for her to have such a scar on her forehead!"

"Granny, I'm fine. With you here, I'll make sure you recover," Yue Jiang raised her hand and gently stroked Granny Ye's hand to comfort her.

In the Moon Kingdom, in addition to valuing the natural beauty of the women they kept, they also paid special attention to the care of their appearance. Each of them had a person by their side to take care of their looks, and Granny Ye was one of them.

Yue Jiang isn't afraid of this minor injury at all.

Granny Ye sighed and promised to restore Yue Jiang to her previous fair, tender, and radiant appearance.

...

Under the bright sunshine, it was springtime, and the fields were lush and green. A gentle breeze wafted through the air, carrying the occasional fragrance of unknown wildflowers and the calls of birds soaring in the blue sky.
