Chapter 2: Can I survive 80 episodes in a palace drama?
What you say will come true.
Jiang Fei wanted to tear her own mouth apart at this moment.
Her heart tightened and she quickly turned around to look at Zhao Xingbang. She saw that his face was pale and he had obviously heard the noise outside.
The two men looked at each other, and Zhao Xingbang immediately looked around in panic, trying to find a place to hide. Seeing that there was still space under the bed, he bent down and wanted to crawl down.
Jiang Fei quickly grabbed him and asked, "Do you want to live?"
Zhao Xingbang was so frightened that he nodded desperately.
Jiang Fei said: "Then do as I say."
In the original novel, Jiang Rufei was making love with Zhao Xingbang and didn't hear anything outside. Naturally, she didn't hear how her third sister instigated her mother to bring people to catch them in adultery. Later, when Jiang Rulin pleaded for her, she was so grateful that she burst into tears.
Jiang Fei, with a God's perspective, knew how much effort her third sister Jiang Rulin had put in behind the scenes for this day.
Jiang Ruolin has been in love with Wei Mingzhen for a long time, but the Wei family has already decided on Jiang Rufei. In order to replace Jiang Rufei, she deliberately introduced Jiang Rufei and Zhao Xingbang to each other, secretly bringing them together, and has been whispering in the ear of Jiang Rufei, a spineless fool, which led to today's situation.
Jiang Rulin's voice rang out from outside, "Mother, no! If you barge in like this, how will my second sister live in the future?"
Jiang Fei sneered in her heart.
This third sister, on the surface, pretends to care about her, but in fact she hopes that her reputation will be ruined so that she can marry Wei Mingzhen instead.
Jiang Fei quickly opened the door and rushed straight towards the graceful and elegant woman in the middle.
"Mother!"
Yao was originally furious, but when she saw her daughter dressed neatly, her anger subsided a little, "Why are you here?"
Jiang Fei immediately looked at the people around her. The expressions of the others were the same as Yao's, except for a younger girl who looked at her with shock. She must be her third sister Jiang Rulin.
"Third sister." Jiang Fei immediately grabbed the other person's hand, "You asked me to wait for you here, why didn't you come? Instead, a young man came."
Jiang Rulin's face changed. "Second sister, what nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever ask you to wait for me here?"
Jiang Fei held Jiang Rulin's hand tightly, looking innocent. "Didn't you ask me to wait for you here? You said you had something important to discuss with me. I've been waiting for a long time, but you didn't come. Instead, the son of the Prime Minister's family is here."
Upon hearing this, Yao frowned, "Rulin, what's going on? Is what your sister said true?"
Jiang Rulin was caught off guard by Jiang Fei's words. She was panicked and shook her head quickly, "Mother, my second sister must have remembered it wrongly. I never asked her to wait for me here, let alone say there was something important to discuss. If you don't believe me, let Zhao Xingbang come out and confront me."
Jiang Fei felt relieved. The Jiang family members were all like fools, none of them were smart. With what she had learned from watching various palace fighting and house fighting dramas, wouldn't she be able to call the shots in the Jiang family in the future?
"Third sister! I never said which son of the Prime Minister's family was in the room. The Prime Minister's family has seven sons. How can you be sure that the person in the room is Zhao Xingbang?"
Jiang Rulin was stunned by Jiang Rufei's question and her face turned pale instantly.
She never expected that Jiang Rufei would actually outmaneuver her at this critical juncture.
After hearing this, everyone present mostly believed Jiang Rufei's words.
Yao frowned even more tightly, and asked in a cold tone, "Rulin, how do you know the person in the room is Zhao Xingbang?"
Jiang Rulin was forced into hiding by Yao's gaze and immediately pointed at Jiang Fei. "It's my second sister! She wanted to have a secret meeting with Zhao Xingbang and asked me to pass on the message. I felt that this was not a good idea and would ruin her life. Knowing that I couldn't persuade her, I called mother over to stop her."
Jiang Fei sneered in her heart.
I have watched "Legend of Zhen Huan" and have learned the true skills from Concubine Xi. Even if I were to be transported into a palace fighting drama, I could survive for eighty episodes. How dare you play the same trick on me?
She immediately feigned shock and grievance, "Third sister, you...how could you frame me like this? When did I ask you to deliver a message? Well, since you want a confrontation, then call Young Master Zhao out for a confrontation."
Zhao Xingbang was nervous inside for a long time, and only came out when he heard Jiang Rufei's voice.
His back was already wet with sweat, but he forced himself to remain calm. He bowed to Yao and then looked at Jiang Rulin.
"Lin'er."
Jiang Rulin's head clanged, and the sound of "Lin'er" kept her awake for a long time. She looked at Zhao Xingbang and then at Jiang Rufei.
Zhao Xingbang knelt down in front of Yao, "Madam! Lin'er and I are in love. I beg you to grant us your blessing."
Everyone froze in their tracks. Yao's knees gave way, and the maid held her steady. "What did you say?"
Zhao Xingbang touched his forehead to the ground and said, "Madam, please help me and Lin'er get married."
Jiang Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Xingbang's acting was quite good. If you didn't know him, you would think he was really deeply in love with Jiang Rulin.
Zhao Xingbang lowered his head, feeling that his head was safe.
Jiang Rufei showed him a clear way out. As long as he cut off his relationship with her and proved that he had no connection with Pei Jing's people, he could save his life.
"You...what nonsense are you talking about!" Jiang Rulin was shaking with anger. "When did you and I ever have any feelings for each other? It was clearly you who was having an affair with my second sister."
Zhao Xingbang raised his head, his eyes firm. "At this point, why should we hide it anymore? You asked me to wait here, didn't you say you had something important to tell me?"
Jiang Feiben, who was supporting Yao and watching the show from the side, exclaimed in shock, "Ah!" "So, Third Sister, you made an appointment with Young Master Zhao, and you also asked me to wait for you here. Third Sister, please don't make an appointment at the same place next time. If someone catches me and Young Master Zhao in the same room, I'll never be able to clear myself from this."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed for a moment. Jiang Rufei explained it so clearly that anyone with a little common sense could understand it.
Yao's expression was uncertain, and her eyes glanced back and forth between the three people.
Jiang Fei was confident that the balance of victory had already tipped in her favor, and she was about to win her first battle since transmigrating into the book.
Yao clenched her fists and suddenly said, "Young Master Zhao said you and Lin'er were having an affair. Do you have any evidence?"
Zhao Xingbang said, "The fact that she asked me to come here is evidence."
Yao heaved a sigh of relief and sneered, "That means there's no real evidence. If there's no real evidence, how can Mr. Zhao slander my daughter's innocence with empty words?"
Jiang Fei's heart skipped a beat. How could she have forgotten?
In the original novel, Yao was extremely partial. Among her four children, she disliked Jiang Rufei the most, so she lacked guidance for her, which led to Jiang Rufei becoming a fool.
