I would never be as scummy as the Crown Prince; I always keep my word.
Shen Zhao kissed her on the forehead, then climbed out the window and left.
Wan Ge didn't ask what kind of expert could evade the Prime Minister's residence's gaze, since there were many experts in the martial arts world, and perhaps he really had found an exceptionally powerful one.
…
Two more days passed, and Jiang Wanqing appeared before her: "Sister, Father wants to speak with you."
Looking at the person in front of her, Wan Ge clearly knew that Jiang Wanqing had already investigated his background.
"How's the investigation going, brother?"
Jiang Wanqing reached out and touched his head: "The investigation is complete. When he was young, he followed a musician around to make a living. The musician passed away when he was eleven years old. Those teahouses and restaurants basically only recognized his master. It was difficult for him to make a living on his own, so he went to Nanfeng Pavilion to become a musician."
Indeed, as you said, he was just a musician at Nanfeng Palace and didn't entertain guests.
After hearing what her brother said, Wan Ge actually breathed a sigh of relief. Although she made that promise to her brother, she had never investigated it herself and simply believed what he said.
He always trusted the people he liked so much, which is why he was deceived by the Crown Prince.
Later, the elder brother investigated the Crown Prince and confirmed that, just as he had said, the Crown Prince did indeed have a relationship with someone else. They had trusted the Crown Prince too much before, and the Crown Prince had covered it up too well.
Now that Jiang Wanqing has personally investigated Shen Zhao and confirmed his identity, she feels somewhat at ease with him. He shouldn't act like the Crown Prince again.
…
Looking at her father sitting in the middle, Wan Ge happily ran up to him.
The Prime Minister still had a stern face, but seeing how he was acting coquettishly towards him, he finally softened: "Alright, since you're here, start doing your work."
"Did Father agree?"
The Prime Minister spoke again: "Well, your mother has already found a residence for you. You can move there after you get married."
Wan Ge's expression changed slightly, as if she couldn't believe it: "Does Father mean he doesn't want his daughter anymore?"
Prime Minister Jiang shook his head: "How could that be? How could your father abandon you? But as you know, your father and brothers are in a rather dangerous situation right now. Before the struggle for the throne ends, we don't want anything to happen to you. Once you leave the mansion, you will be someone else's wife. If something happens to the Prime Minister's mansion in the future, it won't affect you."
"Father, what are you saying! If the Prime Minister is in trouble, I will never enjoy happiness alone. I will share the hardships with you."
Prime Minister Jiang patted her head: "Father knows what you're thinking, but our Jiang family must preserve a bloodline. If we pass away safely, we'll bring you back to the manor. If something happens to us, the task of continuing the bloodline will be entrusted to you."
At this moment, Madam Jiang went over and hugged her: "Daughter, listen to your father. Now that you are no longer on the Crown Prince's side, I'm sure your father will make a better choice, at least to put your father at ease."
"But Mother..."
"Be a good girl."
“Okay.” Although Wan Ge agreed on the surface, she would never allow anything to happen to the Jiang family.
At this moment, Ruan Ruan, who was accompanying her, also spoke up: "Don't worry, sir, I will take care of the Jiang family for you, and with me here, I will not let anything happen to your family."
When Wan Ge heard the system's voice, she remembered that she had a system. It said that the system would protect her, and it should also protect her family.
