The original owner of this body died on the day she transmigrated; the system said that in the story, she was supposed to die at that time. She was assassinated. This is why Li Jiangjiang was so nervous when she saw the assassin.
She wanted to say something, but not at this time.
Wan Ge nodded and had someone inform the prince and princess that Li Jiangjiang would be staying with her for a few days.
In reality, Wan Ge was asking the other person to go back and check on their home first, and also to let her know that she hadn't lied to her.
…
After listening to what Wan Ge said, Li Jiangjiang put on the jade pendant Wan Ge had given her, lay down on the bed, and closed her eyes.
After feeling slightly dizzy, I opened my eyes and found myself back.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with my body, except that there's dust everywhere in the house.
Wan Ge had told her that time was running simultaneously in both of their timelines, but the system would preserve her body, so she didn't need to worry. However, the environment at home might be affected.
Because it's been several months, the house is covered in dust.
Li Jiangjiang quickly turned on her phone, which had only a tiny bit of battery left. She hurriedly connected it to the charger. Looking at the previous records, she confirmed that the system had indeed replied to her request; otherwise, her parents would probably have called the police already.
After doing all this, Li Jiangjiang pinched herself again, and the pain was particularly noticeable, so it wasn't a dream or an illusion.
When Li Jiangjiang turned around, she saw the box on the bedside table.
It contained several kilograms of gold. Wange said it was best not to take too much back at once to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
At the current price of gold, it could fetch a considerable sum, at least equivalent to one to several years of her income.
After calling her parents, Li Jiangjiang went to deal with the gold issue.
…
…
After returning to Wan Ge's side from court, Nan Su asked with a puzzled look, "I heard you invited the young princess to stay with us for a while?"
"Mm." Wan Ge nodded.
"Then why wasn't she with you?" He had heard that the young princess had spoken with the empress and then went to rest, and that the empress had people guarding her and not allowing anyone to enter.
Why make it so mysterious?
"She said she was a little tired, so I told her to go and rest. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Xiao Chen probably misses you."
Wan Ge had someone bring the child over. The child, who couldn't speak yet, could only smile foolishly when he saw his father.
Nan Su carefully held the child. Even though she had held the child many, many times before, she couldn't help but soften her movements when she saw the fragile little life in front of her.
Nan Su gently pinched the other person's cheek. The other person could only smile, but not for long. Instead, they stared at her with wide, curious eyes.
Holding the child in his arms, Nan Su felt a warmth in his heart for no apparent reason. He had a loving wife and an adorable child; his life seemed to be becoming more and more complete.
…
The next day, Chu Changning was summoned as soon as he finished court.
Chu Changning's recent behavior has been particularly strange, and Nan Su has naturally noticed it as well.
"You're getting married in just a few days, why are you still so unhappy?"
Chu Changning lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I feel like she doesn't like me..."
He hadn't realized it before, but now that he saw her becoming more and more distant, Chu Changning slowly began to realize that he might be disliked.
Nan Su's lips curled slightly: "So, you'll be disliked one day too?"
Chu Changning looked like she was about to break, so Nan Su stopped teasing her and slowly said, "She's in the palace right now, but who knows what she and the Empress are doing? Right now, the Empress is bringing her all her food!"
When Nan Su said her last sentence, there was a hint of gritted teeth in her voice. She didn't even receive this kind of treatment every day, so why did she get it?
"What are they doing?" Chu Changning was also puzzled.
"How did I know?" He told him to prevent Li Jiangjiang from having much contact with the Empress in the future, but now the Empress has personally ordered someone to enter the palace, and he's practically being ignored.
Chu Changning looked at him and lowered her head slightly.
Nan Su rubbed his temples and continued, "I find this very strange. Are you curious about what they are doing?"
"What does Your Majesty want me to do?" Chu Changning instantly understood his meaning.
"Come with me to see what has happened," the Empress said, refusing to let anyone in.
Nansu was even more curious about what exactly was wrong between them.
But he was worried that if he went there rashly, it would upset Wan Ge, so it was reasonable for him to bring Li Jiangjiang's fiancé along to see what was going on, right?
Although Chu Changning didn't know the exact situation, he agreed with Nan Su's assessment, as he was also curious about what Li Jiangjiang was doing. What, then, was their engagement?
…
Because of Nan Su's presence, the palace maids dared not stop him, so they opened the door and let Nan Su in.
When they went inside, they saw Wan Ge eating alone, while Li Jiangjiang lay motionless on the bed.
Chu Changning's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately stepped forward. Wan Ge did not stop him.
Chu Changning called several times, but Li Jiangjiang did not respond. Nan Su became a little nervous and subconsciously tightened his grip on Wan Ge's hand to reassure her.
Chu Changning's hands trembled as he checked her breath with his fingers. When her warm breath touched his hand, he breathed a sigh of relief. She was still alive, but what had happened to her?
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with Jiang Jiang?"
"She went home."
"Go home?" Chu Changning looked puzzled.
