"What's wrong with you, servant? The young lady caught a cold after falling into the water and has a headache. You are still making such a fuss. Get out!" When Luo saw Jiang Yilin's face change, she knew that she had misunderstood and spoke quickly.
Then he turned around and comforted her, "When a distinguished guest comes, he always goes to see the old lady first. He will definitely come to see our Linlin in a while. After all, she is the legal wife granted by the imperial decree. I believe he dare not neglect her!"
Hearing this, Fu Xia had almost stepped over the threshold, but suddenly pulled back, "Madam, it seems that Prince Yan didn't go to pay his respects to the old lady, but went straight to the backyard..."
"Shut up! Do you have the right to speak here?" Luo's head ached. She gave Pinzhu a look, asking her to quickly get rid of this talkative maid.
Really, she breaks everything she says.
Jiang Yilin, however, was no fool. She knew what Fu Xia meant and sobbed, hugging the quilt as she spoke. "Mother, is she really better than me? Or did the Duke...dislike me after learning that I'm not a biological child of the Duke's Mansion?"
Without waiting for Luo's answer, Jiang Yilin nodded inwardly.
Yes, that must be the case!
If he really liked that woman, why would he agree to the marriage so readily?
As long as it's not true love, she will definitely still have a chance.
Luo sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes full of pity, "Linlin, don't think about it, this is impossible.
"Have you forgotten? The old woman never spread the news, so outsiders don't know that you two were switched.
"The engagement with the Prince's Mansion is still valid, so Mother thought, if we can make Prince Yan like you during this period, then if he specifically asks to marry you, who can say anything?"
A few words brought light back to Jiang Yilin's eyes. "Is what mother said true?"
"Really? How could mother lie to you? Our Linlin has been meticulously nurtured in the Duke's Mansion for sixteen years. She's proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she's so graceful and beautiful. Any man in the world would surely see Linlin's good qualities. How could that country girl compare to her?"
Jiang Yilin suddenly raised her head, tears of emotion flashing in her eyes, but her hands under the quilt were secretly pinching her palms.
She was about to cry, "Mom, you must help me!"
Seduce Yan Zhuo, is not an easy task.
She had tried before, but Yan Zhuo was cold and aloof, and would never even look at ordinary women. When a handkerchief fell at his feet, he didn't even bend down to pick it up.
It was extremely difficult to attract his attention.
Jiang Yilin frowned, pondering what to do. Meanwhile, Luo was racking her brains, and finally an idea struck her. "I see. Pinzhu, go get something!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yilin couldn't help but be curious, "Mom, what's the solution?"
"Don't ask yet, you'll know when Pinzhu comes back."
…
Yan Zhuo was furious when he left Kangjitang.
His thick black eyebrows were furrowed like two sharp swords, as if they could cut someone at any time.
Qi Ren knew what was going on and didn't go any closer, so as to avoid being implicated.
Yan Zhuo ignored him and stood at the gate for a while, feeling cold all over. When he saw no sign of Jiang Ying, he couldn't suppress his anger anymore and shouted at Qi Ren, "Come here!"
Qi Ren, "..."
It’s over, the prince has eaten explosives!
Why does Miss Jiang always have the ability to make the prince so angry? The key is that you can be angry if you want, but don't take it out on me, okay?
When Qi Ren approached, Yan Zhuo's eyes swept over him from head to toe, like a fish being lingchied to death. "Haha, I finally know why Madam Jiang asked you to borrow someone before. Qi Ren, you are so bold, you actually dared to pretend to be the man of my woman!"
This was a very confusing statement, and Yan Zhuo was stunned for a moment when he shouted it out.
Of course, his expression was stern and he acted as if nothing had happened, so others couldn't tell.
Qi Ren felt a sharp jolt in his heart. "Your Majesty, where did you get this from? I don't understand a single word!"
"Don't understand? Fine, I'll explain it to you more clearly!"
Qi Ren felt that every word Yan Zhuo said next was like ice, "Old Madam Jiang thought that Jiang Ying was your wife, and the child was also you..."
Qi Ren's eyes suddenly widened, as if he was dead, and he knelt down and hugged Yan Zhuo's thighs!
"Woo woo! I deserve death a thousand times. My death is not a pity. I actually caused Old Madam Jiang to have such a misunderstanding. I might as well throw a brick and hit myself to death to avoid tarnishing the prince's reputation!"
Before Yan Zhuo could finish his words, Qi Ren's desire to survive was so strong.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and rushed to the dog hole at the bottom of the wall, and began to unload bricks desperately.
Yan Zhuo's eyes were filled with coldness, "Get back here! Don't think I'll let you go just because you're like this!"
He also asked why the old lady had ignored him, a prince, but treated Qi Ren as a guest of honor. Did she mistakenly think that he was Jiang Ying's husband?
This is the most absurd thing in the world!
That little village girl may not be good at anything else, but her medical skills and vision are amazing. How could she possibly fall for that rough guy Qi Ren?
"Yes!" Qi Ren didn't dare to say anything else and followed Yan Zhuo with his head down.
I have a desolate feeling as if my neck is cold tonight and I am about to die on the training ground.
Dou E feels a little wronged in her heart.
It was clearly Madam Jiang's own misunderstanding, not his. Why didn't the prince blame Madam Jiang, but instead took it out on him?
The two walked for a while, and when they were about to leave the inner courtyard, Yan Zhuo suddenly braked, causing Qi Ren to almost hit his back.
Before Yan Zhuo turned around, Qi Ren took a few steps back, wishing he could shrink his head into his stomach to reduce his presence.
For a long while, he didn't dare to look up, but Yan Zhuo's voice, which was a little calmer, came from above his head, "I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself, do you want it?"
