Yan Zhuo keenly heard the dissatisfaction in her hum and glanced at her.
His voice was cold, "Never mind, just be more careful next time."
Chen Ma was pardoned.
Jiang Ying said nothing and stood there with an obedient look.
Yan Zhuo didn't look at her on the surface, but in fact, his eyes were all on her. He felt something had changed, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
My gaze wandered down from her delicate face, to her slender neck, white and tender, her slightly raised collarbone, which was sexy and alluring. Then, further down...
It would have been fine if he hadn't seen it before, but he saw it clearly both the first time and yesterday.
It is fair and round, proud and plump, and feels great.
A touch of red beans evoked thoughts of spring. In many midnight dreams, he hated himself while taking a cold shower.
Yan Zhuo felt a little fever for no apparent reason.
Realizing that his reaction was abnormal, he quickly dismissed the inappropriate and erotic images from his mind and lowered his eyes. "I've been very busy lately. If you need anything, have the maid come to the mansion to find Qi Ren."
"Of course, it's best not to come."
The stepmother arranged for someone to go to the emperor and apply eye drops to his eyes. The emperor was suspicious and it was quite troublesome to deal with it.
At this time, he didn't want to be distracted by Jiang.
Jiang Ying shrugged and said nothing.
If you don’t want to look for one, then don’t look for one. After the confinement period, it’s a good time for us to part ways and be happy.
…
On the carriage back home.
Yan Zhuo felt something was wrong and asked Qi Ren, "Do you feel that Jiang has changed?"
Qi Ren was surprised, "Changed? What changed?"
In his opinion, she was still as greedy as ever. She was clearly an illiterate peasant girl, yet she still dreamed of becoming the prince's wife.
What a joke!
With her situation, if she wasn't pretty, she wouldn't be able to be a concubine, let alone a mistress.
Yan Zhuo frowned and thought, "I feel like she doesn't need me as much as before..."
Noticing Qi Ren's strange expression, Yan Zhuo rolled his eyes at him, "How dare you! I have no regrets whatsoever. I just feel that she tried every possible way to get into my mansion, even resorting to despicable means like drugging. How come today, even though I promised her to take a concubine, she still doesn't agree?"
“Even asking me for twenty taels?
"Aren't you surprised? She used to be so obsessed with climbing up the social ladder. When did she ever care about twenty taels?"
It’s not that the original body doesn’t care about twenty taels of silver.
On the contrary, because she was ambitious enough and knew that she would have countless twenty taels of silver if she became Yan Zhuo's concubine, she did not care about the short-term benefits.
But Jiang Ying is different. Compared with her original self, she is much more pragmatic.
What you get is the safest.
As for being a concubine, it was not what Jiang Ying wanted.
Qi Ren nodded thoughtfully, "Now that Your Highness puts it that way, it's true."
Yan Zhuo said, "I was just wondering if she's up to something again."
Jiang's tricks were so numerous that he even had a psychological trauma.
That was what happened that time. After being well behaved for a while, Siyu suddenly came to tell her that her legs were hurting and she wanted to see a doctor.
Yan Zhuo thought it was the sequelae of being hit by a horse, so he asked a doctor to see her together. Unexpectedly, she put drugs in the tea, and when he woke up the next day, he found that he had been completely eaten up!
Although men do not suffer any loss in this matter, they still feel uncomfortable doing that with a woman they don't like.
The key is shame.
After so many years of fighting in the military camp and on horseback, he was actually plotted against by a little peasant girl. Yan Zhuo was very angry.
Qi Ren pondered for a moment and said, "That's not necessarily true. Maybe after a trip to the underworld, he understood everything?
“After all, the prince really has no real feelings for her.
"She's just a little peasant girl, barely literate. How high can her vision be? Since she can't win the prince's heart, nor can she gain a position, why doesn't she just ask for some money?"
"What you said makes sense." Yan Zhuo comforted himself.
Seeing that he still looked distressed, Qi Ren smiled and said, "Oh, Your Majesty, don't think too much.
"She's just a peasant girl, not worth your attention.
"Besides, don't you always say that anything that can be solved with money is not a problem?
"Mrs. Jiang took several hundred taels from you, but gave birth to a big fat boy for you. In the end, we are the ones who got the better deal, right?
"If you really don't like her, why don't you just take the child back and send him to Madam Qi to raise him? Isn't that enough?"
Old Lady Qi was Yan Zhuo's grandmother. After the death of the first Princess Qin, Prince Qin married Princess Tong within three months. Yan Zhuo had a hard time and relied entirely on his grandmother and his uncle's family for help.
If he really sent the child over, the grandmother would not ignore it.
However, he didn't want to trouble the old man with such a dirty thing.
Besides, he had already experienced what it was like to be without a mother, and he didn't want his son to experience it too.
"Forget it, let's talk about it later." Yan Zhuo closed his eyes.
After returning to the mansion, the first thing he did was to ask Qi Ren to find Doctor Zhu.
Qi Ren returned empty-handed. "Doctor Zhu is not at home. He said that Madam Jiang's old illness has recurred, so he asked him to go and see her."
"Okay, you must take Doctor Zhu to see the mother and daughter tomorrow morning."
Qi Ren felt emotional, the prince... is really concerned about this?
Your own children are different.
…
At noon the next day, Jiang Ying woke up, opened the curtain and saw the sun coming out, shining warmly on the quilt.
"Si Yu." she called out.
He took the child out of the bed.
Yes, Monkey Son slept with her last night. The little guy refused to sleep in the crib alone, saying he was afraid of the dark.
Jiang Ying was also speechless. As a powerful villain, he said in his heart that he was afraid of the dark?
