Mrs. Li was frightened.
Although she wished her son had not married Jiang Yi, she never thought of taking Jiang Yi's life.
She had only ever killed chickens before.
She just wanted Madam Jiang to persuade Jiang Yi to divorce Li Huaqing.
"It's... not really necessary." Old Madam Li couldn't speak clearly.
Madam Jiang smiled suddenly, "Are you scared, my dear? How can you let Hua Qing marry the princess if you're like this?"
"Do you think that if they divorce, it won't harm Hua Qing's reputation?"
"Everyone knows that she is a weak person. Since ancient times, how could a weak person take the initiative to ask for a divorce?"
"Even if they eventually divorce, the world will only speculate that it was your Li family who forced Jiang Yi to divorce in order to get a foothold in Princess Huai'an."
"Even if Hua Qing finally marries the princess, he's bound to get into trouble."
"Hua Qing cares most about his reputation, so I don't think he'll be happy about it, and he'll inevitably blame you for it."
"There's clearly a better way. Why would Madam Li go so far as to find a solution?"
The better way that Mrs. Jiang mentioned was to kill Jiang Yi.
"It's common to remarry after losing a wife. No one will say anything about it. Since the Li family will marry the princess and gain fame, why not do it? Think about it carefully."
"A divorce is absolutely impossible. Our Jiang family cannot have a daughter who returns home after a divorce. If you are not afraid of offending the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, you can do some small things in private."
Ningyuan Marquis Mansion is the husband's home of Madam Jiang's daughter Jiang Yuan.
Hearing the words "Ningyuan Marquis Mansion", Madam Li's complacent heart sank again. She was naturally not afraid of offending the Jiang family. Jiang Yi's father was not very promising. He had not achieved anything over the years with the support of Madam Jiang's family.
But his legitimate daughter married the young marquis Gu Chen.
Gu Chen's mother was born in the Pingxi Palace.
In this way, even if she was absolutely sure that her son could marry Princess Huai'an, she could not ignore the threat from Madam Jiang.
If the divorce fails, divorcing Jiang Yi will be even worse.
Is it really necessary to kill Jiang Yi?
Madam Jiang left the question unanswered, but didn't want to get involved. She stood up and said, "Since you don't have anything else to do, I'll leave."
Before Mrs. Li could come to her senses, Mrs. Jiang had already left.
When they reached the courtyard, Mrs. Jiang met Jiang Yi head-on.
Jiang Yi thought she had seen it wrong. After all, in the first few years after she got married, Mrs. Jiang rarely came to visit.
She was only surprised for a moment, then stepped forward to greet Mrs. Jiang.
Neither humble nor arrogant, which is very different from before.
In the past, Jiang Yi was very afraid of Madam Jiang.
She was not only afraid of Mrs. Jiang, but she was also completely insecure and never dared to look up at anyone.
Jiang Yi never thought that when she followed Li Huaqing to Wannian County, such a remote and poor place would make her become different.
Perhaps it was because she was here and had gained the favor of some lower-class people that she felt different.
Mrs. Jiang didn't take this matter to heart. She looked at Jiang Yi quietly with contempt in her eyes.
After a long time, she let Jiang Yi get up.
When Mrs. Jiang saw Jiang Yi's beautiful eyes, which were as clear as autumn water and full of tenderness and innocence, her eyes suddenly became dangerous.
This beautiful face always reminds her of a past event.
Jiang Yi looks very much like her biological mother, Aunt Zhao, who was extremely beautiful. At first, Madam Jiang did not take Aunt Zhao seriously.
Jiang Quan was a beautiful woman with red lips and white teeth. When he was young, he was very good at sweet talk and he coaxed Madam Jiang very well.
At that time, Mrs. Jiang really had some feelings for Jiang Quan.
She also has great confidence.
Since she married Jiang Quan, Jiang Quan should be devoted to her. How could he have other thoughts about her?
Therefore, although Aunt Zhao was somewhat pretty, she was just a servant and was not worth her attention.
But she never expected that Jiang Quan would have feelings for the seemingly timid Aunt Zhao.
That was proof of Mrs. Jiang's failure at the time. Even though Jiang Quan later claimed that he was drunk and did such a thing, his man understood it himself.
She had been married to Jiang Quan for several years at that time and had seen through this man. It was not because he didn't want to, but simply because he didn't dare to, that he didn't seek pleasure.
But she had already married Jiang Quan. Even though she knew that she had chosen the wrong person, she could not marry again.
She wished she could cut Aunt Zhao into pieces.
It just so happened that Aunt Zhao was pregnant. Her mother-in-law was already dissatisfied with her because she had only one daughter in her adult years. Now that she heard that Aunt Zhao was pregnant, she wanted to keep her.
No matter how proud she was, she had to endure it.
Jiang Quan assured her on the surface that being with Aunt Zhao was a mistake and that he would never look at her again. He sent her away after Aunt Zhao gave birth to the child, but in fact he secretly went to Aunt Zhao's room several times.
That period was the most painful time for Mrs. Jiang.
But Aunt Zhao pretended to be innocent and timid, and she won Jiang Quan's heart away.
She endured it for ten months, and then had someone tamper with Aunt Zhao's delivery.
Therefore, Mrs. Jiang hated Jiang Yi very much.
Which woman would really love the child born to her husband and another woman? Not to mention that she is of noble character and cannot tolerate such a child.
So people can play tricks on him as much as they want.
But no one expected that Jiang Yi could survive in such an environment.
Later, she even seduced Gu Chen, the son of Ningyuan Marquis.
A daughter born to a concubine is of low status.
But at that time, Madam Jiang did not take Jiang Yi seriously. This concubine's daughter was timid by nature, and her marriage was in her hands. She wanted to choose someone to marry her, and when Li Huaqing proposed to her, she agreed.
Now that she has lost her former timid beauty, she is even more intimidating.
Fortunately, Jiang Yi was about to die not long ago.
Mrs. Jiang was absolutely sure that Mrs. Li would do as she said.
After all, this old woman is the most snobbish.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Jiang rarely smiled.
"I haven't seen him for several years. He has lost a lot of weight. I'm afraid he suffered a lot in Wannian County."
Jiang Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise and said quickly, "It's okay. Thank you for your concern, mother."
"This time when you come back, please be filial to your mother-in-law. I'm afraid you won't have the chance again in the future."
Mrs. Jiang's words made no sense, and Jiang Yi didn't quite understand it for a moment, but he still instinctively felt the danger.
"Mother, you're joking. My mother-in-law has always been in good health," she replied.
Madam Jiang said, "That's good."
Jiang Yi watched Madam Jiang leave, thinking back to what Madam Jiang had said, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
