Jiang Yuanci spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot.
Jiang Yi left leisurely, and when she arrived at Waijian, she consciously distanced herself from Prince Gong.
Prince Gong was naturally not a fool as Jiang Yuanci thought.
In fact, just now, he seemed to have seen through some of Jiang's intentions.
It is just as Jiang Yuanci said, everything is exploitation.
Whenever she got close to him, it wasn't because of him as a person.
For example, when we were outside the Marquis' Mansion just now, it was because of Jiang Yuanying.
And the reason I was here with the Grand Princess just now was because of Jiang Yuanci.
She really was just using her to get revenge on those she disliked.
Prince Gong even thought that perhaps Jiang Yi's conversation when they first met was intentional.
So she was not frightened by his identity at that time.
I didn't take the initiative for this.
Because she was not interested in him as a person, but just wanted to use his identity to strike a blow against the Jiang brothers and sisters.
Although he was certain of this idea, Prince Gong did not feel disgusted or averse to Jiang Yi.
He even admired her.
People all admire the strong, women and men also admire the strong.
Compared to Jiang Yuanying, who is simple and can be seen through at a glance, Jiang Yi is indeed more attractive.
Faced with Jiang Yi's sudden coldness, Prince Gong just smiled helplessly.
"Miss Jiang Si, since you've taken advantage of me, you should at least give me some benefits, right?"
Jiang Yi pretended to be confused, "What is the prince talking about?"
Prince Gong smiled and said, "Well, the King will come again tomorrow."
After Prince Gong left, Jiang Yi returned to her room, where He was already waiting for her.
Compared to He's dislike for her in the past, this time, although He looked very anxious, she still managed to smile at her patiently, "Xiaoyi, mother wanted to come over to see you."
Jiang Yi was not surprised at all. It was the same in her previous life. He suddenly treated her very well, and her purpose was to arrange the marriage.
Now that He wanted to play a trick on her, she would just go along with it.
She acted flattered, and before she could say anything, her eyes turned red. "Mother, you are willing to come and see me."
Seeing her like this, He felt sad for no reason.
She was a person who would give in to soft words but not to hard ones. She was so resistant to Jiang Yi before because Jiang Yi grew up in such an environment and was always protecting Aunt Cui.
After all, she felt that the child was also pitiful.
If Jiang Yi is obedient, she doesn't mind being nice to her.
"You are my daughter who I carried for ten months and gave birth to. How could I not look at you?" said He.
Jiang Yi added: "But my mother clearly didn't want to recognize me before."
"I thought, if you don't want to recognize me, then I won't recognize you either."
"That's why I said that to my mother. Will she blame me?"
She said this carefully, with a fragile strength.
He said: "No, from now on you are your mother's sweetheart, and I will give you whatever appearance you want."
Just like in her previous life, He stayed with her almost every day and even slept with her at night.
He would even cook for her and act very careful with her, as if she wanted to make amends with her.
Jiang Yi just watched her perform.
When she finally told him her purpose, Jiang Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Just like in her previous life, she was humble and flattering, trying to retain the little bit of He Shi. "Mother, you said I'm not suitable for Prince Gong, so I don't want this marriage. I only want you."
He was a little surprised that she agreed so easily, and at the same time she was a little touched.
She said, "You are such a good boy to your mother."
Jiang Yi added, "I have nothing left but my grandmother and mother. Mother, please never abandon me, no matter when."
He said: "This is natural."
So the next day, Jiang Yi went to the palace to cancel the engagement.
Knowing that Jiang Yi agreed to cancel the marriage so easily, Jiang Yuanying, who had been crying for nearly a month, smiled for the first time.
She was so happy that she said to He, "She really did grow up in a small town. She doesn't understand what an imperial decree is. Can she cancel a marriage granted by an imperial decree just because she wants to?"
"Not to mention that she's withdrawing from a royal marriage, which is tantamount to slapping Prince Gong and the royal family in the face."
"She actually dared to do that. I'm afraid the Emperor and the Queen Mother might even take her life in a rage."
"At worst, a beating is possible."
"I'm waiting for her to come back covered in wounds."
"She's slapping the royal family in the face like this. I'm afraid her status as a princess will be taken away, and those fiefs and things didn't belong to her in the first place."
"She called off her engagement with Prince Gong. No one will dare marry her in the future, and no one will. She'll have to stay home as an old maid for the rest of her life. My grandmother's favorite granddaughter is bringing disgrace to the Marquisate. I'm afraid my grandmother will also dislike her."
"She'll have nothing."
"And I will become the Princess of Gong. In the future, she might even have to kneel down at my feet and beg me to give her a bite to eat."
The long-term repression made Jiang Yuanying vent all these words at once, and he didn't notice the increasingly embarrassed expressions of He and Jiang Yuanci.
He knew the possible consequences of asking a little girl like Jiang Yi to cancel the engagement, but for Jiang Yuanying, she had no choice but to do so.
She wasn't really so heartless that she hated Jiang Yi to this extent.
After all, Jiang Yi is her biological daughter.
Although she wanted Ying Jie'er to get what she wanted, she felt guilty.
Ever since Jiang Yi entered the palace, her heart has been in torment, fearing that Jiang Yi would come back covered in blood.
