Jiang Yuanying looked down on Jiang Yi from the bottom of her heart, so she didn't think Prince Gong would like Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi grew up in such an environment, and Prince Gong was always kind, so when he gave her the jade pendant, it was at most out of pity for her.
But she still felt uncomfortable, so she thought that the next time she met Prince Gong, she would tell him indirectly.
She said she was unhappy with Prince Gong's behavior.
Prince Gong has always been accommodating to her. Knowing that she is unhappy, he will definitely not treat Jiang Yi differently in the future.
When she heard that Prince Gong was coming today, she immediately went to look for him, but she never expected that Prince Gong would be so close to Jiang Yi in the Anyuan Marquis Mansion.
Because they were quite far away, Jiang Yuanying couldn't hear what they were saying, he just saw them talking and laughing.
Although Prince Gong looks gentle, he would not smile at anyone casually.
For a moment, Jiang Yuanying was extremely angry. Only after he rushed up did he find a little bit of rationality.
No matter what dissatisfaction she had with Prince Gong and Jiang Yi, she could not act like a shrew, otherwise it would only make Prince Gong dislike her.
Jiang Yuanying's face was a little distorted for a moment.
After a while, Jiang Yuanying finally managed a somewhat stiff smile, "Brother Zhen, do you know my fourth sister?"
Prince Gong said, "Well, I met her by chance on my way to the capital. I never thought she was your sister."
He was a little confused again, "I thought you knew."
After all, Jiang Yi had just said that Jiang Yuanying knew that they knew each other, and even took away the jade pendant he had given to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yuanying's face froze again, "How would I know..."
Prince Gong naturally noticed that something was wrong with her, but he was understanding and didn't say anything more.
Jiang Yuanying said to Jiang Yi, "Fourth sister, you just returned home, and you don't understand many of the rules. If you rashly appear in front of others, if you cause trouble, it will be bad. Please go back."
Although Jiang Yuanying tried her best to control herself, it didn't look like she was talking to her own sister at all, and her tone was even threatening.
It makes people feel uncomfortable when they hear it.
It also doesn't match her previous gentle and generous image in the officialdom.
However, facing the hidden meaning in Jiang Yuanying's words, Jiang Yi just said meekly: "Then my sister will take her leave first."
Then he left.
Prince Gong looked at Jiang Yi's back and said to Jiang Yuanying, "You don't like her."
This is an affirmative sentence.
Jiang Yuanying explained, "She is Aunt Cui's daughter."
"But," Prince Gong continued, "haven't you always been very close to your aunt?"
It is well known that the wives and concubines in Marquis Anyuan's mansion are famous for their harmony, and they even treat each other like sisters.
Jiang Yuanying never concealed her love for Aunt Cui, and she often told others that Aunt Cui was pitiful.
So Prince Gong thought Jiang Yuanying was particularly kind.
Now that Jiang Yi is Aunt Cui's daughter, Prince Gong thought that Jiang Yuanying would also like Jiang Yi.
Instead of looking down on others with such condescending contempt.
Jiang Yuanying was a little annoyed, and his words were tempered. "What does your Highness mean by this? Are you speaking up for her?"
Prince Gong said in a good-tempered manner: "Yuanying, you know, that's not what I meant. I just don't understand."
Jiang Yuanying's expression brightened a bit. "She is the same age as me, born on the same day and year. She is the daughter that Aunt Cui gave birth to before she divorced her ex-husband. I originally thought she was the child of Aunt Cui and her ex-husband, so I felt sorry for Aunt Cui."
"But in fact, she is indeed the child of Aunt Cui and my father. Don't even think that I have any good feelings towards Jiang Yi. I don't even have any good feelings towards Aunt Cui now, because that only means that Aunt Cui has let my mother down."
Prince Gong then understood what was really going on.
"In that case, it's normal for you to be dissatisfied." Prince Gong recalled that day on the way when Jiang Yi said she came to find her mother and was worried that she would not be recognized by her mother. The girl was nervous and hesitant at that time. Thinking about how she faced his identity without any greed, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.
"But this matter is mainly the fault of Concubine Cui and Marquis Anyuan. After all, the fourth girl was just a child at that time."
Prince Gong was a little puzzled. If Jiang Yi was the child of Aunt Cui and Marquis Anyuan, then why did Aunt Cui send Jiang Yi to her ex-husband after giving birth to her?
Generally speaking, concubines all want to have a child, even if it is a girl, it is better than having no child at all.
Then he thought again, the reason why Aunt Cui had been pitied and treated well by He and Jiang Yuanying in the Marquis' Mansion during these years was precisely because her affair with Marquis Anyuan was not exposed, and she would never have children in the future.
For a moment, I couldn't help but feel that Aunt Cui was really cruel.
For the sake of his own happiness, he could disregard the life of his own daughter.
Jiang Yuanying felt even more annoyed when she heard him speaking for Jiang Yi. Then she saw him in a daze, thinking that he was in a daze because he was thinking of Jiang Yi, and she couldn't help herself.
"What do you mean, you think she's innocent?"
"Is the prince speaking to her because he feels sorry for her, or because he has some unusual feelings for her?"
Prince Gong came to his senses and realized that Jiang Yuanying had misunderstood. He said, "Of course it's just pity."
"Now that you've seen the jade pendant, you should know that I happened to meet Fourth Miss Jiang on my way back to the capital, and I gave it to her out of pity."
"That jade pendant is an ordinary one. There are many of them in the palace."
"I have given away a lot in the past."
"I thought you would understand, Yuanying, but it doesn't matter if you don't understand. I will explain it to you."
