Prince Gong first came to the Grand Princess, who was Prince Gong’s great-aunt. Prince Gong was raised by the Grand Princess.
Prince Gong used to come to visit the Grand Princess from time to time. He was very familiar with the people around the Grand Princess, so familiar that he could call out the names of every servant.
But today, there was a strange woman standing behind the Grand Princess. The moment she raised her eyes, Prince Gong was shocked.
This person was none other than Jiang Yi, whom he had met by chance on his way back to Beijing.
Jiang Yi also looked surprised.
The eldest princess noticed Prince Gong's strangeness and told him about Jiang Yi's identity. "This is my fourth daughter. She was born weak and had been raised in Lingyin Temple. She was only brought back recently."
It can be said that everything about Jiang Yi's past was blurred.
But Prince Gong immediately sensed something was wrong.
It’s not that there wasn’t a fourth young lady in the Marquis’ Mansion, but the fourth young lady that appeared now was naturally not the same as the previous one.
And he knew that Jiang Yi's father had a broken hand.
Although he guessed that there was something else behind Jiang Yi's life story, Prince Gong did not get to the bottom of it, but instead talked about other things with the Grand Princess.
After a while, Prince Gong finally said goodbye to the Grand Princess.
The Grand Princess asked Jiang Yi, "Have you met Prince Gong before?"
Jiang Yi then told the Grand Princess about how Prince Gong had rescued her when she arrived in Beijing. She added, "At that time, my granddaughter had no idea he was actually His Royal Highness Prince Gong, and she never even thanked him."
The eldest princess said, "What a coincidence! Prince Gong is your third sister's fiancé, and he will be your third brother-in-law in the future. Family members don't need to pay attention to those empty formalities."
Jiang Yi responded "yes".
She then stepped out and followed Prince Gong's steps.
Prince Gong noticed someone behind him and turned around to look.
Jiang Yi raised his eyes, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
Prince Gong stopped when he saw this and said, "Fourth Miss."
He didn't ask how she suddenly became the fourth daughter from an orphan who came to look for her mother, but he had some guesses in his mind.
Jiang Yi didn't beat around the bush with him, "I never thought before that I was the child of my aunt and the marquis."
"My mother is Concubine Cui of this mansion."
Prince Gong understood instantly.
"I called out to you, Your Highness, because I felt guilty. You saved me that day, but I seem to have ruined things."
Her eyes suddenly turned red, and she fought back her tears as she said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. The jade pendant Your Highness gave me was discovered by my third sister, who snatched it away. It seems she has some misunderstandings about Your Highness."
"But no matter how I explained, she didn't believe it."
"My Lord, what should we do?"
Prince Gong didn't expect that she came here because of this matter. He frowned and said, "Yuan Ying has always been considerate and shouldn't..."
Jiang Yi said: "If that's the case, it would be the best. But if Third Sister has misunderstood, I don't know how to explain it to her so that she will believe me."
Prince Gong said: "What's there to explain? There's nothing to explain. There was nothing between us in the first place."
"Yeah." Jiang Yi said nothing more. "I just wanted to tell the prince about this matter. Since the prince said it's nothing, then it should be nothing. But the prince should still comfort the third sister more. Girls still need to be comforted."
After she said this, she bowed and was about to leave, but the handkerchief suddenly fell at Prince Gong's feet.
Prince Gong subconsciously picked up the handkerchief and handed it to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi blushed, said "Thank you, Your Highness", and was about to leave.
At this time, Jiang Yuanying suddenly rushed up.
