Jiang Jintang opened letter after letter in disbelief.
While the other party was reading the letter, Wan Ge continued, "He wouldn't tell you that he broke off the engagement with me for your sake, would he? It's just because my general's mansion has declined and I'm no longer of any use to him, so he can dump me without any mercy."
He used my father's situation as an excuse to help him, hoping to get me to propose breaking off the engagement. That way, the emperor wouldn't dislike him, and he wouldn't be the one who wanted to resist.
He promised me he would annul the engagement, but he had no intention of keeping his promise. Now, His Majesty gets angry if anyone mentions my father in court. If I hadn't saved His Highness the Crown Prince by chance, I wouldn't even have been able to see my father one last time.
After saying this, Wan Ge poured herself another cup of tea, took another sip, and said, "Besides me, you should also know that my aunt is the imperial concubine who raised him. My aunt has no children of her own and has always treated him as her own son. All the best resources have been given to him."
But what did he do? After my aunt was banished to the cold palace, he immediately tried to sever ties with her. My aunt wrote to him many times, hoping he could say a few good words for my father to the Emperor, but he completely ignored her.
Even after my aunt was banished to the cold palace, they didn't show her the slightest concern.
When Jiang Jintang heard this, she subconsciously retorted, "It's because the Imperial Concubine has no children, so she took him away and raised him in her heart. Moreover, the Imperial Concubine treats him very badly and has been abusing him all along."
When Wan Ge heard this, she laughed out loud: "Abuse him? He is a scholar under Master Gongshu and a warrior under General Jingyang. What mother who abuses her child would find the best teacher for him?"
Aside from these things, his food, clothing, and shelter were all excellent. And why do you think His Majesty would favor the Third Prince? It's simply because of our family. Now that our family is in trouble, he's just kicked us aside.”
"No, that's impossible! You're lying to me because I'm with him, so you're lying to me."
Wan Ge slowly stood up: "It was Miss Jiang who helped me escape this misery, so I should be the one to treat you to this meal. If Miss Jiang doesn't believe everything I've said, she can verify it herself. Now that my family is in this state, I certainly can't stop you except for those I don't want you to know."
After saying this, Wan Ge handed out a silver note and then left.
…
“Miss…” The maid looked at Jiang Jintang with some concern.
Jiang Jintang looked up at her maid, Chunyu, and asked, "Do you think what she said is true?"
“This…” Chunyu stammered, unsure whether she should tell the truth.
Jiang Jintang absolutely trusts Chunyu. Chunyu would risk her life for her, and now Chunyu has been by her side through almost everything.
Chunyu immediately knelt on the ground, looking at Jiang Jintang in front of her: "Miss, I don't know if what Miss Jian said is true or not, but I have heard before that Miss Jian and the Third Prince have a very good relationship. The Third Prince often brings many things to Miss Jian. Before General Jian's accident, he said that they were a perfect match. I think that for the sake of Miss's future happiness, it would be more prudent for Miss to have a look."
