Chapter 228: The Beautiful Woman Who Married on Behalf of Others 11



After saying this, Wei Ning felt that he was being unkind.

He thought Jiang Yi might slap him, or at least scold him harshly.

But no, Jiang Yi not only didn't say that he was wrong to do so, she even agreed with him.

Although this was admitted somewhat jokingly.

But it was enough to make Wei Ning's already restless heart even more agitated.

No matter what he did, she never seemed to be cold to him.

Does she like him a little bit?

Although the Queen Mother and Marquis Wuding did not reveal the fact that the Queen was pregnant, there is no wall that is impenetrable in this world. When Wei Ning learned that Marquis Wuding and Jiang Qi had a son, he also knew that the Queen was pregnant with Prince Xiang's child.

He also understood why the Queen Mother and Marquis Wu Ding suddenly took action against him. It was because they thought that after his death, the child in the Queen's belly would be considered his "posthumous child."

Normally, he should return to the palace and expose everything, but the emperor was reluctant to do so.

He told himself to wait a little longer. He wanted to ask Jiang Yi if she was willing to go with him.

At the same time, Marquis Wuding also made a quick decision. Compared to controlling the heir of Prince Xiang in the queen's womb, he wanted to push his own son to that position.

So he didn't hesitate and told someone to make the queen have a miscarriage.

Originally, he had done this matter very secretly. After all, the queen was only three months pregnant, and it was normal to have an unexpected miscarriage at this time.

But the emperor's men intervened and reported the matter to the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother and Marquis Wu Ding, the former aunt and nephew, had a huge quarrel, and Marquis Wu Ding tried his best but failed to appease the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother was willing to kill her own son for the sake of Prince Xiang and the child, but now the child is gone. She cannot accept this result, and a fierce quarrel broke out between the villains.

Marquis Wuding was in a state of panic for the time being. Without the support of the empress dowager, it would be difficult for him to push Wei Nian to the forefront.

When Wu Dinghou heard that Jiang Qi had sent someone to look for him, he felt overwhelmed.

Marquis Wu Ding returned to the mansion and the old lady called him over.

The exhausted Marquis Wu Ding came before the old lady, who asked him, "Is the court very busy?"

"Well, I am a bit busy." said Wu Dinghou.

"But no matter how busy you are, you must return home. Concubine Jiang is the emperor's woman after all. Now that the emperor has been kidnapped and his whereabouts are unknown, you should keep your distance from Concubine Jiang. You must know that people's words can be terrifying." The old lady stopped talking and said to Marquis Wu Ding, "Please accompany me for dinner today."

Then he said to the servant, "Call the lady over as well."

Marquis Wu Ding probably understood that the old lady was trying to match him up with Jiang Yi.

Although Jiang Yi's background is not up to par, she is now the wife of Marquis Wuding.

No matter how much Marquis Wu Ding liked Jiang Qi, she was already a palace concubine.

It has been more than a year since Marquis Wu Ding and Jiang Yi got married, but in this year and more, the two have not had any children, let alone consummated their marriage.

Neither of them is proactive, so the old lady can only resort to the worst possible strategy if she wants to have a legitimate grandson.

When Jiang Yi heard the old lady calling him over, he knew what she meant.

In her previous life, it was today that the old lady drugged her and Marquis Wu Ding, locked them in the same room, and then she gave birth to her An'er.

Her An'er...

She missed her An'er so much, but she probably would never see her An'er again.

She didn't want her An'er to suffer the pain of his previous life and have a father who didn't love him.

She felt sorry for her An'er.

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she smiled and said to Wei Ning, "Come find me in your old lady's room later. Remember to be quiet."

Although Wei Ning didn't understand what he meant, he agreed without hesitation.

Jiang Yi went to the old lady. The old lady was rarely kind to Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi responded to the old lady's words.

The old lady was rarely happy, so she asked someone to bring some wine and asked Jiang Yi and Marquis Wu Ding to drink with her.

Empress Wu Ding was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Mother, how can you drink?"

"Why not?" The old lady said, "When I was young, I could drink more than your father."

She insisted that not only she wanted to drink it herself, but she also wanted Wu Dinghou and Jiang Yi to drink with her.

Marquis Wu Ding had never heard that Jiang Yi could drink, but she never refused at all.

But he saw clearly that although Jiang Yi drank the wine, he secretly vomited it out.

His heart moved and he looked at the wine again.

There's something wrong with that wine.

He understood in an instant. His mother suddenly called them together and suggested that they drink.

His mother would never harm him, and he thought about what the old lady had said before.

Marquis Wu Ding suddenly felt complicated.

It was normal for a wife to want to be favored by her husband, but Jiang Yi, she really didn't seem to care about him at all.

It's not an act, she really doesn't care about him.

Even though his mother tried so hard to bring them together, she didn't want to.

In the past, he had always judged others by his own standards.

But Marquis Wuding soon felt unwilling.

Why shouldn't she care about him?

Why is she so distant from him?

What right does she have to look down on him?

He suddenly sneered. Even though he knew there was something in the wine, he still drank it all without hesitation.

The old lady looked at the two of them with a smile, "If you are drunk, you can rest in the wing room next to my mother."

The old lady signaled her servants to help Marquis Wu Ding and Jiang Yi leave.

Marquis Wu Ding and Jiang Yi had just been sent to the wing room when the door was locked from the outside.

Jiang Yi quickly stepped back and looked outside the door, "My Lord, this..."

Marquis Wu Ding looked at her obvious attempt to escape, and his eyes, already somewhat clouded by the wine, became even more irritated. Without much thought, he stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Yi's wrist, restraining her in a tight space.

This was the first time that Marquis Wuding was so close to Jiang Yi, and it was also the first time that he looked at her so seriously.

Only then did he realize that his wife had a pair of extremely beautiful almond-shaped eyes. Her eyelashes were thick, dense and long. When her eyes were filled with mist, she looked very pitiful and made people want to ravage her.

But she is stubborn, and her stubbornness is subtle and silent. You may think she is accommodating you, but that is actually her silent resistance.

Silent resistance?

Marquis Wu Ding sneered and pushed the man onto the couch. Jiang Yi looked at him intently.

"Is this fair to my sister, my Lord?"

This used to work, but it doesn't work so well now?

She was very cold when she spoke, but perhaps because her face was flushed from the alcohol, the coldness was diluted, and she seemed very charming instead.

He suddenly felt very aroused, and when the drug took effect, this arousal became even more profound.

"Jiang Yi," he turned her face, "don't you care about me at all?"

He seemed quite puzzled.

Jiang Yi ignored him.

He was annoyed and wanted to kiss her.

Then the next moment, he was hit on the head and Marquis Wu Ding fell heavily unconscious on Jiang Yi.
