When Jing Shuo saw Yue Jiang coming alone to the inner palace, he narrowed his long eyes and went up to greet her, bowing and saying, "Greetings, Crown Princess sister-in-law."
Yue Jiang nodded slightly: "Second brother."
Just as he was about to let the palanquin continue, Jing Shuo stopped him, saying, "May I ask the Crown Princess to alight from the palanquin so that I may say a few words?"
Yue Jiang ignored his request and insisted on leaving: "The road is not a place to talk. Let's go to the Empress Dowager's palace to talk."
"There are some things that are not to be told to outsiders, and I'm sure my sister-in-law, the Crown Princess, would not want others to hear them!"
Jing Shuo took a small step forward and gleamed at Yue Jiang's waist. He saw a row of brightly colored sachets, but none of them were the ones he had given her, and a slight disappointment appeared between his brows.
"Is it because my sister-in-law, the Crown Princess, doesn't wear the sachet I gave her that she doesn't like the scent of magnolia blossoms?"
"My sister-in-law, the Crown Princess, doesn't like the smell of magnolia blossoms. It's probably because my brother likes the scent of her!"
Jing Shuo was bold enough to do this, so Yue Jiang gestured to Qing Ke, who immediately lowered the palanquin and the palanquin bearers went to the side.
Yue Jiang said calmly, "The sachets my second brother gave me are very nice. I usually prefer a light and refreshing scent. I'll hang those in my bedroom to scent the room so I can sleep soundly."
Jing Shuo suddenly appeared in front of her yesterday out of the blue; he must have some ulterior motives towards her.
Now Yue Jiang is even more certain that it's possible that he's confident in his perfumery skills and thinks she has a secret, wanting to control her because of it.
It's not just that they covet me; it's that they not only covet me but also want to use me to deal with Jing Yan, hoping to have their cake and eat it too.
Now they're here to bewitch her.
Jing Shuo had no idea that she had grown up learning to bewitch people.
Jing Shuo didn't believe it and slowly said, "The marks on my brother's body on the first day of his wedding are hard to hide. It's understandable that he only cares about the prosperity of Jing Kingdom and neglects his sister-in-law, the Crown Princess. But how could you torment my brother like this?"
"Sister-in-law Crown Princess should..."
Before Jing Shuo could finish speaking, Yue Jiang became impatient. Suddenly, a familiar figure slowly approached from the direction of the inner palace, with a clear and calm voice.
"Jiang'er, come here!"
