The rain blurred the woman's face, but her skin, whiter than snow and lush and shining, could not be concealed beneath her messy hair.
Prince Gong just took a glance and then looked away.
The rain was pouring down and didn't seem to be stopping any time soon, so King Rui ordered a fire to be lit.
By the evening, Zhu Hao's wounds became infected and he developed a high fever.
Jiang Yiqiu went before Prince Gong, who had Zhu Hao moved to his side and had his wounds treated.
As the outside world has evaluated Prince Gong, he is a very compassionate person.
Even though he and Jiang Yisu were strangers, when Jiang Yi came to him for help, he took the initiative to arrange for Zhu Hao to be accommodated without even waiting for Jiang Yi to say anything.
Looking at the old man and the young man, the old man's most important right hand was chopped off. Prince Gong couldn't help but feel curious, "How did your father's hand get injured?"
"He was a gambler and was chopped to pieces by debt collectors." Jiang Yi's tone did not sound like someone from the capital.
Prince Gong couldn't help but ask again: "Then what are you going to do?"
Jiang Yisui said, "Go find my mother."
This time, she took the initiative to tell the story without waiting for Prince Gong to ask again.
"My mother had a childhood sweetheart, a cousin, but her family was humble, and the old lady of that family didn't like her, so she had no choice but to marry my father."
"But she was unwilling to give in. Even after marrying my father, she secretly had an affair with her cousin."
"My father became decadent because of this, drowning his sorrows in alcohol every day and even becoming addicted to gambling."
"After that, my father and mother divorced. I never saw my mother again in the following years. Until recently, my father had his hand chopped off. He knew that his time was running out, so he wanted to hand me over to my mother."
"My mother later married her cousin as a concubine, but I don't know..."
There was a hint of melancholy and hesitation in her raised brows.
I wonder if her mother will dislike her or reject her...
Although she was just a young girl who had not yet reached the age of marriage, her voice had an inexplicable ethereal quality.
Those past experiences were made more heart-wrenching in her vague narration.
One can’t help but wonder, what kind of experience could make a girl of this age so calm as if she had gone through so much?
Not to mention that the person opposite is Prince Gong, who is famous for his kindness.
Therefore, after hearing her story, Prince Gong took the initiative to say: "If you can't gain a foothold in Beijing in the future, you can use this to come to Prince Gong's Mansion."
Prince Gong said as he handed a jade pendant to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi did not accept the petition.
She was a little apprehensive. "I'm so sorry to have received your kindness today. How can I possibly trouble you in the future?"
Although she was born in poverty and had a difficult life, she knew how to respect herself and when to advance and retreat. This was Prince Gong's first impression of Jiang Yi.
He naturally would not have imagined that this girl, whom he had only met once, harbored the greatest malice towards him in the world.
The sudden rain had just stopped, and on the second day everyone prepared to set off.
Jiang Yi's ox cart was damaged by rain yesterday, and Jiang Yi had no choice but to ask Prince Gong for help.
Upon hearing this, Prince Gong naturally said nothing.
Jiang Yi had a disabled man named Zhu Hao with him, and since they were traveling the same way, he let Jiang Yi and Zhu Hao get on his carriage.
Jiang Yi was very well-behaved along the way. As long as Prince Gong didn't ask her a question, she wouldn't take the initiative to talk.
It was also at this time that Prince Gong discovered that Jiang Yi was very beautiful.
She has white teeth and bright eyes, and is very beautiful.
With her reserved and introverted appearance now, this kind of beauty makes people feel even more comfortable.
Bright but not ostentatious.
Such appearance is extremely rare even among noble ladies.
Suddenly, Prince Gong became curious about Jiang Yi's mother, who had married and had an affair with his cousin, and then divorced and married his cousin as a concubine.
Of course, this curiosity is just a thought in my mind.
Prince Gong's gaze fell on Jiang Yi, but Jiang Yi seemed oblivious to his words.
On the contrary, a servant beside Prince Gong was particularly vigilant.
Jiang Yi knew that this servant was bribed by Jiang Yuanying and often informed Jiang Yuanying of the news around Prince Gong.
What kind of person is Jiang Yuanying? He looks gentle and dignified on the surface, but his inner strength is extremely fierce.
It can be seen from the fact that she had not yet married Prince Gong that she was aware of Prince Gong's movements.
What this person cares about most is that there are other women around Prince Gong.
Fortunately, Prince Gong has always kept himself clean.
Countless people in Beijing envy Jiang Yuanying for having such a good husband.
As the emperor's only younger brother, everyone knows that the title will be passed down from elder brother to younger brother. Although Prince Gong has not yet been named the Crown Prince, that is a foregone conclusion.
Because of the current emperor's unique fate, it is impossible for him to get married in this lifetime.
But a person with such an identity chose to remain a virgin for Jiang Yuanying.
Jiang Yuanying was also complacent about this.
Accustomed to such a perfect life, how could Jiang Yuanying accept that there were other women around Prince Gong?
Even if this woman was just riding in the same sedan chair with Prince Gong, it would not be acceptable.
Is being gentle and kind really being gentle and kind?
It's simply because they have never encountered anything before. If they really encounter something, the jealousy and meanness hidden inside will be revealed. At that time, will such a perfect couple still share the same hatred for the enemy as in their previous life?
Come to think of it, it’s such a pity.
But I also look forward to tearing the beauty known to the world into pieces.
The carriage arrived at the imperial city in silence.
Almost as soon as he entered the imperial city, Jiang Yi got off the carriage and said goodbye to Prince Gong.
