Chapter 106 I won't expose you, just cooperate
Jiang Mingyue was completely shocked. She widened her eyes and stared at Jiang Jiu in disbelief, unable to say anything.
Jiang Jiu sighed slightly in his heart, after all, she was only a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
He had been protected so well by Jiang Liu since he was a child that he had never seen the world. He only had a few little thoughts, but people could see through them at a glance.
Such a person, once he entered the Chang family, would be no match for Mrs. Chang.
Perhaps Madam Chang saw through her and realized that she posed no threat at all, so she suggested letting her enter the palace as a maid.
Without shedding blood, the person is destroyed. The person is either trapped in the palace for the rest of his life without seeing the light of day, or is quietly killed in the palace.
No matter how you look at it, it seems like getting rid of a burden.
Pianjiang Mingyue still thinks she is very smart and dreams of entering the palace and becoming an imperial concubine.
"You, how do you know?"
Jiang Jiu rolled his eyes at her with disdain and pointed at his head: "Your brain isn't for nothing. You have it, I have it, and Madam Chang has it too..."
"If you don't believe me, you can go back and test her by telling her that you don't want to enter the palace and see what she will say."
Jiang Mingyue had a complicated expression on her face, but in her heart she had already somewhat acknowledged what Jiang Jiu said. After thinking it over, she really didn't dare to confront Mrs. Chang.
"Why did you come to see me today? Anyway, there is no way you can get your identity back."
Seeing her shameless look, Jiang Jiu smiled.
"It doesn't matter. I don't like it anyway. However, you have to remember that if your name is Jiang Jiu, your husband is Lu Yunyang, and his real identity is the Ninth Prince."
"The Ninth Prince is about to enter the capital..."
Jiang Mingyue smiled coldly: "With you here, will he still care about me?"
Jiang Jiu: "Whether he cares about you or not, isn't it just a matter of a word from me..."
Jiang Mingyue stopped talking again and glared at Jiang Jiu, her chest heaving with anger.
Jiang Jiu smiled and said, "Why don't we work together?"
Jiang Mingyue: "How to cooperate?"
Jiang Jiu: "I won't expose you, but I need your cooperation. As long as you can avenge my mother, I will guarantee that you will marry a man of your dreams."
"I know you want to marry an official with a rich family. There are many such people in the capital. Instead of asking Lord Chang to support you, wouldn't it be more prestigious for the Ninth Prince?"
Jiang Mingyue knew at this time that she was riding on the back of a tiger.
You have to agree even if you don't agree.
"What should I do?"
Jiang Jiu smiled slightly: "To prove your identity, you need another important person, my wet nurse Qian Ma Ma. In two days, she will come to the mansion to look for you. Then you will know."
Jiang Mingyue knew in her heart that Madam Chang had been investigating her, and Lord Chang was always evasive in his answers to her. To put it bluntly, he still doubted her identity.
A jade pendant alone cannot prove her identity.
But Nanny Qian is different. She has lived in the Chang family, served Jiang, and was Jiang Jiu’s wet nurse. Naturally, she can prove her identity.
After meeting Jiang Mingyue, Jiang Jiu's plan of revenge began.
She had just recovered from a serious illness and was feeling tired, so she only stayed for a while before the group of four went back.
The four people did not go to Beijing, but directly lived in Jiang Jiu's villa.
In the capital, Yiye Xiaozhou has many industries, including shops and hundreds of acres of fertile land.
Everything was managed by Qin Yuan's younger brother, Qin Shan. At that time, Qin Shan was still a young man in his twenties, but now he has reached middle age.
After Jiang Jiu appeared in Sucheng, Qin Yuan wrote a letter to his brother, saying that he had found the young master's daughter. Now Nanny Qian brought Jiang Jiu back to the capital, and Qin Shan came immediately.
The villa is basically full of elderly people. Even the maid who served Jiang Jiu's mother back then has now become a nanny and married to a tenant of Yiye Pianzhou.
As Jiang Jiu entered the yard, she saw that the servants who greeted her all had red eyes, and a feeling of bitterness surged in her heart.
Nanny Qian stepped forward, supported her, and introduced her to everyone.
"This is our girl."
Everyone saluted Jiang Jiu in unison, and Jiang Jiu quickly helped them up.
"No, no, you are all older than me, so let's not do this etiquette when there are no outsiders around."
Aunt Cui, who was about the same age as Aunt Qian, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves.
"Like, really like, exactly like the young master when he was young. Girl, when you were born, it was this old slave who delivered you."
Nanny Qian introduced her: "She is Cui Cui'er, Madam's personal maid. Madam used to call her Cui Cui. Now you should call her Nanny Cui. She used to be Madam's most capable person."
Jiang Jiu understood that a capable person must be smart and efficient.
When her mother carried her and ran away, she stayed behind to hold the fort and buy time.
Nanny Cui married the son of Fu Bo, the steward of the other courtyard. After Fu Bo passed away, his son Wang Lai Fu became the steward, and the couple helped manage all the affairs of the other courtyard.
Jiang Jiu took Aunt Cui's rough hand and patted it affectionately: "I was young at that time and didn't recognize people. Aunt Cui, you have worked hard."
The villa is located in the suburbs of Beijing, and the accounts of the city and the fields are all checked by Madam Cui.
Wang Lai Fu was in charge of the tenants' harvest.
As soon as Jiang Jiu entered the house, Nanny Cui, Lai Fu, and Qin Shan wanted Jiang Jiu to check the accounts.
Jiang Jiu waved his hand and smiled: "Why are you so anxious? You have to rest for a few days. Besides, all of you elders are carefully selected by my grandmother. My mother trusts you, so I naturally trust you even more."
Nanny Cui gave her daughter, Wang Cuiya, to Jiang Jiu as a maid.
Jiang Jiu took a close look at Wang Cuiya. She had tender skin and clean hands, and she was definitely not cut out for hard work.
The older generation does not want their children to suffer if they cry after eating. This must be because they were raised with love by their parents.
"No, I won't be staying here for a few days. I have to go to Beijing. Let her stay here to look after the house for me."
Jiang Jiu is surrounded by Nanny Qian, Xia Zhi, and Chu Yu, and doesn't want to use anyone else.
Zhao Zhuoxi had been following Jiang Jiu, but since Jiang Jiu didn't introduce him, no one dared to call him by name.
But privately, Nanny Qian had already told important people that Zhao Zhuoxi was the ninth prince and that he was visiting incognito, so they did not need to perform formalities, but had to show respect.
Aunt Cui was so frightened that she dared not utter a word.
That night, Chu Yu took Jiang Jiu's pulse and wrote a prescription, asking the servants to get the medicine. Then they stayed in the side courtyard, waiting for the Ninth Prince's carriage.
The four of them were in the yard, playing cards after dinner, or drinking and playing rock-paper-scissors. The leisurely days seemed like they were stolen, and they were so pleasant.
The Ninth Prince's driving was extremely difficult. He had to travel a distance and rest for three or four days. It was rumored that the Ninth Prince was seriously ill and would not live past the age of twenty-five. Now that Princess Qiyang had passed away, he was even more grief-stricken and feared that he would not even live past the next year.
The trip was originally supposed to be three days, but it was dragged on for seven or eight days.
It was not until the eldest princess and the emperor asked about his itinerary every day that he began to set off at a leisurely pace.
Jiang Mingyue, the most important person in the capital, has become more and more calm since returning from the Guanyin Temple.
She didn't know Jiang Jiu's true situation before.
All we know is that her father was a high-ranking official in the capital, and her mother was a concubine. It is said that she fled because her father's family was exiled.
Later, Jiang Liu found out that Jiang Jiu's father was actually Chang Mingyuan, the former Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and later the Left Prime Minister.
Jiang Liushi made Jiang Mingyue
He used the jade pendant to find his relatives under a false name.
