The Duchess of Zhenguo would normally not meddle in such matters.
People from wealthy and powerful families like them know best that they must protect themselves.
The more cautious you are in daily life, the fewer mistakes you make, and the less trouble you cause for those in the court.
But when she looked into Jiang Tian's eyes, she nodded as if possessed.
This is actually not difficult. She doesn't need to do much. She just needs to give Jiang Tian a list, and she will take care of everything else herself.
Wei Wenxuan's official rank is not high, and the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion is not afraid of him.
In short, this was something she could easily do.
Since you've already agreed, there's no going back.
The Duchess of Zhenguo smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll write to you in a couple of days."
Jiang Tian smiled again: "Thank you so much this time."
After Jiang Tian and her entourage left the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, Shen Yan suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Mother, you must help Madam Jinrong."
The Duchess of Zhenguo glanced at her son and said, "What does my affair with her have to do with you? Go practice your martial arts."
Shen Yan realized that his mother really didn't take him seriously at all.
He hinted, "I have many friends, and I might be able to help you."
The Duchess of Zhenguo glared at him: "I knew you wouldn't leave peacefully. Since you overheard, you must not tell anyone. What Lady Jinrong did was somewhat risky."
Shen Yan understood perfectly well, and he quickly smiled ingratiatingly: "Then how about I help you? How can you choose the most suitable person from so many households in the capital all by yourself?"
“I’m still the one in charge in the inner quarters. Shut your mouth and mind your own business.”
The Duchess of Zhenguo had no idea what her son wanted to say to her. After saying a few words and dismissing him, she went to handle the matter.
Shen Yan was extremely disappointed.
In truth, he didn't understand what he was thinking. Jiang Tian was a perfectly normal female elder in his eyes, and she didn't do anything out of line.
Even though she was somewhat cold to him, she still helped him when he asked for help.
He should keep his distance from such a person and avoid bothering him.
But he desperately wanted to see Jiang Tian's genuine smile.
Why did this woman dislike him so much? He was very curious about the reason.
Shen Yan thought to himself that even though his mother wouldn't let him go, he was determined to do it anyway.
He had friends from all walks of life, while his mother usually associated with noble ladies from high-ranking families. They kept their private affairs so well hidden that only the servants at the bottom knew about them. How could his mother possibly find out?
Evil people need other evil people to teach them a lesson. If Wei Wenxuan were to live a good life, Jiang Tian would definitely be unhappy.
All he wanted was for Jiang Tian to be happy.
Therefore, it would be best if he went to help.
With a goal in mind, Shen Yan shook off his previous dejection and suddenly cheered up.
Lady Zhenguo had no idea what her son was up to, but seeing that he had stopped sighing all the time, she stopped interfering.
As the mistress of the household, she has a lot to do.
Of course, she didn't neglect Jiang Tian's affairs either.
Before long, she had a preliminary list.
She was about to send someone to deliver the items to Jiang Tian when Shen Yan stopped her.
"I just happened to be on my way to deliver a thank-you gift to Madam Jinrong. I recently obtained some rare fruits from the south, and I plan to send them to her as a token of my gratitude for saving me last time. Since you two are on good terms, if you give me this list, one less person in the know will be eliminated. Isn't that a win-win situation?"
