Chapter 52 This routine is played well
"no!"
Jiang Yuzhu refused straightforwardly without hesitation.
Princess Yutan was stunned for a moment before she laughed: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Yuzhu replied: "I never use relatives as gambling money. Even if my second brother agrees, I can't get past this hurdle."
Although Jiang Yuzhu was sure that she would not lose, she did not want to drag Jiang Huaiqing into it.
"good."
Princess Yutan immediately changed her words, "If I win, how about you accompany me for half a month?"
The Jiang family is poisonous, and Princess Yutan wants to see how deeply she is poisoned.
Jiang Yuzhu yawned and said lazily, "Let me make it clear first, I won't sell my body."
Princess Yutan: "..."
She had indeed overestimated Jiang Yuzhu again!
The two quickly agreed on the terms, and Jiang Yuzhu fell in love with Jifeng, a fierce northern horse raised by Princess Yutan.
Ji Feng has pure bloodline and understands some human nature.
Seeing Jiang Yuzhu coming, it raised its head proudly, ignored the candy in Jiang Yuzhu's hand, and even snorted in disdain.
You think you can buy it off with just this little favor?
Jiang Yuzhu raised her hand to touch the horse's back, but Jifeng immediately raised his front hooves to warn her.
"Good, you have guts!"
The more this happened, the more Jiang Yuzhu wanted to conquer him.
A quarter of an hour later, Princess Yutan had already dug a basket of wild vegetables.
Jiang Yuzhu picked and chose, finding the most tender parts and integrating them together.
As soon as she stood up, Princess Yutan blew a whistle. The two horses that were still grazing heard the noise and quickly hid in the woods.
Jiang Yuzhu looked around vigilantly and saw a maid acting suspiciously, who seemed to be waiting for someone.
Princess Yu Tan pointed at the maid and said, "Wei Jing's confidant Shu Xiang."
Jiang Yuzhu and Princess Yutan looked at each other, and tacitly found a secluded place to hide.
About half an incense stick of time later, Zhao Zhe's servant Chongyang appeared.
Chongyang saw Shuxiang and looked behind her and asked, "Where is your young lady?"
His young master sent someone to the Wei Mansion to deliver a message and agreed to meet Wei Jing in advance. Now that Miss Wei has not arrived yet, he sent a maid to get rid of him?
Shuxiang looked impatient and urged, "This is the royal hunting ground, there are many people and eyes, what if we are caught by someone?"
The young lady in her family has a good reputation and her innocence must not be ruined.
Chongyang was stunned and sneered: "That sounds nice, but wasn't my young master instigated by Miss Wei?"
After being beaten, Zhao Zhe lay in bed, muttering about Wei Jing.
Wei Jing didn't feel guilty at all. Maybe she had her reasons for not visiting. Wasn't she too cruel that she didn't even send a maid to visit?
"My young master's actions were indeed a bit extreme, but they were done to please Miss Wei..."
Now Zhao Zhe is hated by the Jiang family and is in a difficult situation.
Chongyang had no other thoughts. Considering that his young master was so infatuated with Wei Jing, Wei Jing would have to show some appreciation, right?
Shuxiang showed a strange look: "Chongyang, your son's methods are so dirty, why do you blame my young lady?"
"My young lady only said that she was unwilling and hated Jiang Yuzhu, but she didn't say anything else, right?"
The disgusting things Zhao Zhe did were not instructed by Wei Jing, they were all Zhao Zhe's idea.
"Your son has evil intentions and is not a good match."
After saying this, Shuxiang turned around and walked back, because her young lady needed someone to serve her.
Chongyang stood there in a daze, unable to believe it. Then his face turned bitter. His young master was so stupid. What the hell did he like?
Wei Jing appears to be kind and considerate, but her true face is so unbearable.
What’s even more infuriating is that most people in the capital were kept in the dark and were bewitched by Wei Jing.
Especially since Zhao Zhe was so confused that he was ruthlessly trampled upon afterwards, he was just a stepping stone.
From the beginning to the end, Wei Jing had no intention of marrying Zhao Zhe, she only wanted to use him.
After the scene was cleared, Princess Yutan came out of the woods and looked at Jiang Yuzhu sympathetically: "I haven't been back to Beijing for a few years. Why are there so many monsters in Beijing?"
Among the people deceived by Wei Jing, Princess Yutan was one of them. She recalled that the confrontation with Jiang Yuju on the day of Wei Mansion's birthday banquet was also secretly instigated by Wei Jing.
"She pretended to be pitiful and weak to lure the big fool out, and then pretended to be magnanimous and tried to reconcile them. She got all the benefits. She is really good at this trick!"
Princess Yutan dodged so many arrows on the battlefield, but was played around by Wei Jing. She was treated like a fool. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got: "Yuzhu, no need to bet. I admit defeat."
"Jifeng will compensate you. Wait for my news."
Princess Yutan did not explain much and left in a hurry.
Only after she left did Qiao Ying and Yu Jiaojiao dare to show up.
Qiao Ying went straight to the point: "Yuzhu, I sent someone to inquire. After Zhang Wanyi hanged herself, all the maids around her were sold. Zhang Wanyi had a cousin who got married and left the capital not long after Zhang Wanyi hanged herself."
Yu Jiaojiao added: "It sounds like everything is normal, but Qiao Ying and I discovered a big problem."
Jiang Yuzhu led the two into the tent. She casually played with the lid of the teacup and said after a while, "You continue talking."
Qiao Ying didn't keep it a secret: "If you don't check, you won't know. Zhang Wanyi's cousin married a man from the Wei family."
The Zhang family has a tradition of farming and studying, and most of the family members are scholars.
It sounds good to say that Zhang Hanlin was the only one who served as an official among several generations.
Such a family background is very humble in the capital city where many noble families gather.
Zhang Wanyi couldn't marry into a good family, so how could her cousin, who was of lower status than her, have the chance to marry into the Wei family?
"That young Lord Wei is a county magistrate several hundred miles away, and holds the seventh rank."
Young Lord Wei is young and promising. Although he does not hold a high official position now, he has the Wei family as his backer. He only needs to leave Beijing for a few years to gain experience and will have many opportunities for promotion in the future.
"Wei Bai is Wei Jing's cousin, and the relationship between the siblings has always been very good."
Zhang Wanyi had just died and my cousin married Wei Bo. It was really a shocking coincidence.
Unfortunately, Jiang Yuzhu did not believe in coincidences. She was almost certain that Wei Jing had done something behind the scenes, causing the Zhang family to misunderstand and treat her as an enemy.
After learning about this, Hong Jin suggested, "You should tell the master, the mistress, and the two young masters to teach Wei Jing a lesson!"
Recently, Wei Jing has been doing a lot of disgusting things secretly.
Jiang Yuzhu lowered her eyes and smiled: "I'm not just a complainer. Wouldn't it be more interesting to take the initiative?"
Upon learning that the Empress Dowager had invited the wives of officials to drink tea to relieve boredom, Jiang Yuzhu suddenly had an idea and the opportunity came to her.
Inside the main tent, the Queen Mother sat in the main seat with a relaxed look on her face.
Seeing Jiang Yuzhu coming, the Queen Mother asked, "Yuzhu, Yutan praised your archery skills. Did you get anything?"
Jiang Yuzhu stood respectfully beside the Queen Mother and replied helplessly: "Princess Yutan did it on purpose. I am lucky to be able to catch a chicken."
The Queen Mother liked Jiang Yuzhu, but she didn't like her being too competitive.
The Queen Mother was very pleased to hear Jiang Yuzhu was being modest. Just as she was about to reward her, Wei Jing, with her hands hanging down, interrupted and said, "Thank you, Madam, you are too modest. We all saw how you beat Princess Yutan at the birthday banquet at the Wei Mansion that day."
Wei Jing kept bringing up this matter, with hidden meanings in her words, alluding to the Wei Mansion's birthday banquet, where the guest Jiang Yuzhu stole the spotlight by participating in horse racing and archery, and performing an autopsy on Lu Qingxue.
Princess Yutan had made great military achievements in the North. In the contest between the two, Jiang Yuzhu easily won. Doesn't this prove to everyone that Princess Yutan's achievements were all false?
The Queen Mother dropped the teacup with a bang, her eyes extremely gloomy.
After seeing Lu Qingxue's corpse, the Queen Mother had nightmares for half a month.
Madam Jiang Chen had spies in the palace and she felt something was wrong. She thought her daughter was going to be punished.
