Wei Ning slowly stood up, his face full of confusion, "Where...where is this?"
"Ma'am, why did I meet you again?"
Jiang Yi explained, "Yesterday I met you unconscious on the street, and I took you to my house."
Wei Ning smiled bitterly, "Madam, you saved my life again. I really owe you everything."
He was about to stand up and kneel down before Jiang Yi. Jiang Yi quickly supported his arm and said with concern, "Slow down. You are still sick. Don't faint again."
"Come, sit down and talk slowly."
"How did you become a beggar?"
Wei Ning didn't answer for a long time. When Jiang Yi looked at him, he was looking at the hand that Jiang Yi had just held him with, and his earlobe was slightly red.
Jiang Yi: “…”
Wei Ning then said, "It's like this, Madam. After I left the palace, I was afraid that my family would find me, or that the palace would come to arrest me, so I disguised myself and blended in with the beggars."
"Madam, I have been abandoned by my family. I have no home anymore. Since you and I are so destined to be together, why don't you let me be a servant by your side? You don't have to pay me wages, just give me a meal."
Jiang Yi said in embarrassment: "You finally escaped from the palace. You can find a job to support yourself. Why sell yourself into slavery?"
"I'm not selling myself." He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yi seriously, "I'm repaying a favor."
"Madam, you have shown me great kindness. I am willing to serve you like a beast of burden. I only ask you to give me this one chance."
As he spoke, he was about to kneel down again. The movement affected the wound on his body. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he still looked at Jiang Yi persistently.
"From now on, Madam is my master and my family."
"Madam, are you willing to give me this opportunity?"
He added, "Even if Madam doesn't give it to me, I will still follow Madam, unless Madam drives me out."
Jiang Yi said helplessly: "You call..."
"Xining, Madam, please just call me 'Aning'."
"Okay, Aning, since there aren't many people here, you can wait outside. If you ever want to leave, just tell me."
Jiang Yi had two concubines who came with her as a dowry. Initially, these two concubines were ordered by the Jiang family to monitor her, but when they saw that Marquis Wu Ding didn't like her at all and never came to her room, they ignored her and often slacked off openly.
Wei Ning was very happy to hear this and said to Jiang Yi, "Thank you, Madam. I can do anything. Just tell me what you want me to do."
"Don't look at me as thin, I'm quite strong."
Jiang Yi smiled, "But you should stay here to recuperate first. I have plenty of people there. We can talk about other things after you recover."
Wei Ning nodded and continued, "After all, I escaped from the palace, so I have to cover up my appearance. Madam, please don't think I'm ugly."
Jiang Yi laughed. She asked Wei Ning to have a good rest and then went to her own yard.
Zhao Yihuan came over in the evening. Every time he came over before, he reeked of alcohol.
He was drunk and came to find her with only one purpose, which was to vent his anger.
So she was very afraid of him at that time.
He is Marquis Wuding, her husband, the man who can decide her life or death with just one word.
But perhaps because she had dragged Zhao Yihuan to death once, she was no longer afraid of him.
What's so great about Marquis Wu Ding? He is just a human being. Humans will die. There is nothing to be afraid of.
On the contrary, Jiang Yi is now full of hatred towards him.
Because it was this person in front of her who killed her An'er.
She is only two years old.
With every step Zhao Yihuan took towards Jiang Yi, Jiang Yi imagined in his mind how to kill him.
She lowered her eyes to hide the strong hatred in them.
"Ma'am, I noticed we have some vegetables planted in the yard. Can I go water them?"
Wei Ning saw Zhao Yihuan coming in and tried to make his presence felt.
The corners of Jiang Yi's lips twitched slightly, and she looked past Zhao Yihan at Wei Ning.
The young man, who was deliberately making himself look ugly, was looking at her with his eyebrows flying and eyes uninhibited.
"You were injured just now, and I'm afraid it will affect the wound." Jiang Yi's eyebrows and eyes looked more gentle under the dim candlelight.
Wei Ning said, "It's okay."
"Well, take your time." Jiang Yi said this, then turned back to Zhao Yihuan and said, "This child is also a miserable person. When I picked him up on the street, he was dying. I saved him, and he said he wanted to sell himself into slavery."
"My Lord, you don't mind, do you?"
Zhao Yihuan's thoughts were interrupted. He never cared about Jiang Yi, her life in the mansion, or who she came into contact with.
But what happened just now... made him very uncomfortable.
He said, "Don't pick up any random people at home."
"He's just a beggar." Jiang Yi knew his weakness best, because she immediately asked him, "Is the Marquis jealous?"
Zhao Yihuan just thought it was ridiculous, "I'm jealous of you?"
"Never mind, if you want to do those useless things, go ahead. Don't think that I will pay you any attention just because you pretend to be kind and virtuous."
"I heard that you went to the palace a few days ago. Don't go out in front of others casually, and don't go to the palace."
"Your little tricks here will only disgust me even more."
The main reason he came here today was to warn Jiang Yi.
Although the emperor was not dead, he was poisoned and fled.
His people have been looking for the emperor, just waiting to find him and eliminate him completely.
