In a moment of impulse and hot-headedness, Jiang Yuanlang lost Xiao Yanzhi. In this matter, he was indeed wrong.
But you wouldn't say that he was totally wrong. After all, this was a trap set by someone specifically for him and Xiao Yanzhi!
Jiang Yuanlang was young and naive, stupid and simple-minded, and was treated like a wooden fish and played around with. These were the shortcomings and flaws in his character.
Jiang Ying knew very well that even if she didn't blame him, he would have been feeling remorseful and guilty these past two days. It was obvious that he had tortured himself a lot.
Then there is no need to lecture him verbally. It will be more effective if you wait until he relaxes and then give him a warning.
Jiang Yuanlang was very surprised by Jiang Ying's kindness and amiability. His voice was obviously choked and trembling. "Sister...sister, don't you blame Third Brother?"
"Third brother is a bastard, Third brother..."
"Forget it." Jiang Ying still smiled, looking very gentle. "It's all in the past. I know Third Brother didn't mean it. Fortunately, Zhizhi is fine. As for Yan Zhuo... well, when he wakes up, I will help you explain. He is not the kind of unreasonable person."
Jiang Yuanlang was so moved that he didn't know what to say for a moment.
Especially when I saw the still lively and lovely child in her arms, the burden in my heart finally dissipated. I thought, as long as Zhizhi is okay, everything will be fine!
He could wait without regrets for any punishment from Prince Yan after he woke up—
"Sister Ying...Brother Zhi..." The old lady's voice came from afar, her joy mixed with the fear of surviving a disaster.
Jiang Ying got off the carriage, holding the child, and threw himself into the old lady's arms.
"Grandma," she called out.
Nothing can compare to a hug or a call to make people feel at ease.
The grandparents hugged each other for a moment, and before the old lady could speak, Jiang Ying spoke frankly, "Grandma, Ying'er has suffered greatly this time. I curse those damned human traffickers to have an accident, be struck by lightning, or die a miserable death!"
Seeing that she was so full of energy and had the strength to fight the human traffickers, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his hand to smooth his granddaughter's messy hair, and immediately turned his gaze to the sleeping little Yan Zhi, "Stop yelling, save your energy. Not to mention you, the child must be scared. Look, he's sleeping like a pig. Hurry, take him back to Kangji Hall and let Yin Rui and the others take good care of him."
"Oh, how could I, an old woman, forget? I should ask a few imperial doctors to come and take a look, only then can I feel at ease."
Jiang Ying chuckled, "Grandma, you're confused. I, your granddaughter, am the best doctor in Nanzhao, okay?"
The old lady's eyes were filled with love. "Silly child, do you think I asked someone to come and see the child? I asked someone to come and see you, too. Prince Yan was right when he said, 'A doctor cannot heal himself.' And you have always only cared about others and ignored your own pain. If you don't ask someone to come and see the child, I will be worried."
After hearing these words, Jiang Ying felt warm in his heart.
Jiang Yuanlang immediately jumped out and volunteered to ask for help.
The old lady gave him a look, then turned to Jiang Ying and said, "Your third brother, you really made an outrageous mistake this time.
"Don't worry, Grandmother will find a way to teach him a lesson for you.
"His first mistake was stealing the child. His second mistake was taking the child out without a guard. His third mistake was taking a child less than a year old to a filthy place like a brothel. His fourth mistake was being simple-minded and getting irritated by a few words. He's truly a blockhead!"
In short, in the eyes of the old lady, Jiang Yuanlang's crime is unforgivable.
Jiang Ying secretly shook her head. She had expected this to happen, so she didn't bother to make things difficult for her silly third brother.
No matter what, I'm afraid that Third Brother will have a hard time for a long time to come.
"Grandma, have you heard about what happened in the Hu Mansion?" In the past few days, the news of Hu Xinglin's disappearance has spread throughout the capital.
Some say that he fled for fear of punishment, while others say that he was dismissed from office and expelled from the Imperial Medical Bureau. He could not bear the disappointment, so he secretly found a place to hang himself.
Some even said that he abandoned his wife and children and eloped with his lover.
In short, there are all kinds of opinions.
However, few people knew that he had been killed by Jiang Ying and his body was nowhere to be found.
The old lady was displeased when she heard the name. "Why mention him in such a good way? He's such an ambitious and treacherous person. It's not worth mentioning him anymore. Anyway, the Hu Mansion has been disbanded. Madam Hu took the children and went straight back to her parents' home. The separation of her family and her family is his retribution!"
Jiang Ying hummed and supported the old lady's arm. "Okay, I'm hungry. Grandma, please ask Sister Yinping to make me a table full of delicious food."
Lian thought about how she almost lost her child this time, and how sad she felt...why shouldn't she be so unhappy?
Even if Jiang Ying wanted to eat human flesh, I'm afraid he would find a way to give her a piece.
But Kunan actually came to the house and asked Jiang Ying whether he wanted to send Yan Zhuo back to the Prince's Mansion or let him stay in the Duke's Mansion for a few days.
Jiang Ying suddenly stared in confusion.
"This... isn't it inappropriate to live in the Duke's Mansion?" Yan Zhuo was injured, and many people were worried.
The emperor, his loyalists, his friends and subordinates, etc.
Jiang Ying admitted that she had a new respect for Yan Zhuo this time and was willing to take the next step with him, but what was the point of him moving into the Duke's Mansion for no apparent reason?
She thought it through and was about to refuse, but the old lady got there first:
"Ah, Sister Ying is right. Living in the Duke's Mansion is not appropriate. But who knows if the Prince's Mansion is clean? After all, he has a mother like that. If Commander Ku doesn't mind, why not first move Sister Ying to Feiyu Mansion, which is empty. It's quiet there, which is good for recuperation. That way, Sister Ying will inevitably have to treat Prince Yan in the future, so she won't have to go in and out of the Prince's Mansion frequently and attract criticism."
Jiang Ying, “…”
She wanted to laugh.
As for the matter between her and Yan Zhuo, it has spread all over the capital. Is there any need to cover up the truth?
But thinking that it would be more convenient for Yan Zhuo to live in Feiyu House, Jiang Ying didn't say much.
"In that case, I will do it this way." Turning around, the corners of Kunan's mouth couldn't help but rise.
Qi Ren, that kid, better make the right bet this time, otherwise...
What Kunan didn't know was that this one act of willful abandonment of principles not only brought him countless benefits, but also helped him rise higher and higher in the official rank.
