Even though she knew that the secret she had hidden for more than ten years was known by Zhu Hao, and even a second person knew it, when she saw Jiang Yi for the first time, when Jiang Yi gave her that cunning, evil smile, Aunt Cui still did not take Jiang Yi seriously.
She thought that maybe Zhu Hao deliberately sent Jiang Yi here to warn her, or it might be the person behind Zhu Hao.
She never expected that Jiang Yi knew everything and even wanted to use this secret to control her.
Those words, which seemed to be protective but were actually threatening, made Aunt Cui tremble all over.
She knew the secret, but did not rush to reveal her identity to the Grand Princess. Instead, she used it to threaten her.
What exactly does she want to do?
Aunt Cui suddenly had countless murderous thoughts.
Zhu Hao and Jiang Yi were both killed, but there must be a third person behind them.
Aunt Cui was in a terrible mood.
Coldly watching Aunt Cui's mood fluctuate, when Aunt Cui's heart sank again and again, Jiang Yi finally spoke, as if teasing a pet, she said to Aunt Cui: "You must be obedient."
Only by being obedient can you continue to have everything you have now, and only by being obedient can you survive.
Aunt Cui couldn't understand Jiang Yi, nor was she naive enough to think that if she obeyed her, nothing would change.
She didn't expose everything, but seemed to be playing with her.
Give her some hope, then dash her hope, and repeat this process over and over again.
But can she threaten a girl who is only a dozen years older than her?
Aunt Cui smiled softly, "Xiaoyi, you've suffered a lot over the years, and it's time to tell you something. You are the child of the Marquis and me, but my status is humble after all. The Grand Princess doesn't like me, and if the Marquis's wife knew your status, I'm afraid she wouldn't treat you well either."
"For your own good, I can only place you with Zhu Hao. I gave him some money. I originally thought he would treat you well, but unexpectedly... Alas."
She sighed deeply, "But now that I know Zhu Hao treats you badly, I can't just sit there and watch you continue to be dragged down by him. From now on, I will keep you in the Marquis' Mansion, even if the Madam blames me and makes things difficult for me."
"As long as I am here, I will protect you."
Even though they both knew the truth, Aunt Cui still did not break the window paper.
When she talked about the emotional part, she couldn't help but burst into tears, as if she was really a mother who had no choice.
Even if this secret is known to others, what does it matter? Does Jiang Yi think he can control her in this way?
This girl seemed to be very conceited, but she didn't know that there were many swords and sabers in the backyard. She might lose her life before she had enough fun and her identity was exposed.
And she can take advantage of this period of time to win people's hearts.
Pull He completely to this day.
He was a vain and selfish person. In front of such a person, as long as she discredited Jiang Yi and shed a few tears, even if she was her own daughter, she would be disgusted.
Not to mention, her sister Ying was raised by He since she was a child. Even if the truth is revealed, I am afraid Jiang Yi will not be able to compare with her sister Ying.
As for Marquis Anyuan, his heart had always been biased, but because of the Grand Princess's...
Thinking of this, Aunt Cui couldn't help but feel angry. Why didn't this damn old woman just die?
Then he thought about the glory of the Anyuan Marquisate, all of which came from the eldest princess, and he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
"Aunt Cui, you don't have to be like this in front of me."
"You had your reasons for abandoning your husband and daughter, and you also had your reasons for having an affair with Marquis Anyuan after your marriage. When you did these things, did you ever consider that your beloved daughter would have to bear the title of illegitimate daughter for the rest of her life?"
"Thinking about it this way, Jiang Yuanying is also pitiful, having a mother like you."
Aunt Cui was so scared that she tried to cover Jiang Yi's mouth, but Jiang Yi opened it.
"But Aunt Cui loved her daughter so much that she told such a huge lie, using me as a substitute for Jiang Yuanying. She enjoyed wealth and glory for more than a decade in my place. So, looking at it this way, I'm the one who deserves more pity."
"Aunt Cui, do you know? I'm very angry."
"You need to think about how to make me not angry so that you and your daughter can enjoy more happiness."
She leaned over and patted Aunt Cui's face.
"Aunt Cui, we have a long way to go."
Jiang Yi walked out of the room and came in front of the Grand Princess.
She bowed gracefully to the Grand Princess and said, "Granddaughter Jiang Yi, I pay my respects to my grandmother."
Her red eyes were wet with tears as she looked at the Grand Princess. Her fearful look of wanting to get close to her made the Grand Princess feel sad.
"Good boy, come here and let grandma hug you."
Only then did Jiang Yi step forward.
The eldest princess patted Jiang Yi on the back and said, "Welcome home, child."
The emotions that had been suppressed for two lifetimes suddenly burst out. She cried uncontrollably in the Grand Princess's arms, her tears soaking her clothes. She said a little embarrassedly, "Grandma, I've wet your clothes."
The eldest princess said, "It's okay."
Jiang Yi added, "I felt so close to you the moment I saw you. It turns out you are my grandmother. I'm so grateful to have such a kind grandmother like you."
She was extremely polite and spoke softly even when she was excited.
This made the Grand Princess feel even more regretful.
Growing up in such a place and being raised by such a person, Jiang Yi could still grow up to be like this. What would have happened if he had grown up in a marquis's mansion?
