Wei Wei looked at him with a complex and unreadable expression in her eyes.
Although he lied to her, he continued to help her behind the scenes.
If it weren't for him cleaning up my mess last time...
The matter of killing Granny Zhang cannot be so easily covered up.
On this muddy road, she encountered someone who kept pulling her and protecting her as she walked towards the shore. How could she possibly be angry?
Seeing that the person opposite her was still a little nervous, she finally couldn't help but chuckle softly.
"I forgive you."
She spoke.
Jiang Yu's eyes lit up as he pondered how to salvage the situation.
He was very happy and delighted.
Even without guessing, Wei Wei could see it in his eyes.
Then Jiang Yu hugged her tightly.
"Thank you for forgiving me."
He whispered in her ear, his voice softer than ever before.
He cared too much and was always anxious about losing it.
Now that she has forgiven him, she realizes how unbearable the waiting was.
Fortunately, it's all over now.
Although Jiang Yu had something to care about and a weakness, it was this that made him a complete person.
Wei Wei could hear the loneliness and joy in Jiang Yu's words.
She had already inquired about each of the emperor's sons before coming to the capital.
Although I didn't know that Jiang Yu was the Seventh Prince at the time, I still remembered him because of his background.
The mother was an ordinary palace maid who was forcibly taken by the emperor because he took a liking to her.
A night of passion brought her endless pain.
She refused to be one of the emperor's many women and knelt on the ground, begging to return to where she had been.
Jiang Yu has lived with the lowest-ranking eunuchs and palace maids since birth.
However, because of this sensitive identity, they often suffer unfair treatment.
If it weren't for his high fever that brought him to the brink of death, his mother wouldn't have risked her life to hold him and block the emperor's path.
The emperor still harbored a lingering affection for that beautiful woman.
This time, when she lowered her head and begged for mercy, she was given the dignity she deserved.
The rise of palace maids to imperial concubines is a remarkable phenomenon in any dynasty.
However, without the support of their maternal families, concubines found it difficult to move an inch in the harem.
Jiang Yu seems to have suffered even more hardships.
The brothers vented their anger on him, and what was even more torturous was immediately tested on Jiang Yu.
The injuries on his body were inflicted during that time.
His mother was heartbroken seeing this, and on one rare outing, she mustered up the courage to contact her childhood sweetheart.
Jiang Yu became the adopted son of the head of Su Shou Tang, and also acquired a new surname, "Wang".
He grew stronger day by day, but he still couldn't save his mother's life.
Her long-term depression left her beyond medical help.
Finally, on a beautiful afternoon, he fell asleep forever.
Jiang Yu became a dissolute playboy from then on, simply because his mother wanted him to live a simple and ordinary life.
Now, however, he is willing to return to the bloody path of vying for the throne for her sake.
She closed her eyes tightly in his arms.
Regardless of what the future holds, since someone has treated her this way, she will not let their kindness go to waste.
Her greatest enemy is dead, and she can live again.
Why not follow your heart and be bold for once?
The two leaned against each other quietly for a long time before Jiang Yu spoke: "With the death of Third Brother, there will be great changes in the palace."
"The Ministry of Justice will be investigating very strictly, so to avoid any unforeseen circumstances, I may visit you very rarely."
Wei Wei nodded: "You go ahead and do your work. I've only just arrived in the capital and I have a lot to do as well."
Jiang Yu chuckled softly, "Your maid is quite good. Although she doesn't look particularly remarkable, she manages to satisfy the ladies and young women who visit the shops. You don't need to worry about this matter much."
It seems Jiang Yu has been keeping an eye on things.
Wei Wei smiled and nodded in agreement, saying, "Xiao Qiao'er has always been a good maid. Otherwise, how could I have trusted her to bring half of my fortune with me?"
Jiang Yu gently ruffled her hair, clearly agreeing with her opinion.
The two talked for a while longer until a slight noise came from the corner.
Leng Pusheng has returned again.
He landed on the ground, but before he could even steady himself, he saw two figures embracing under the tree, and he almost threw out his back!
He looked completely bewildered, clearly not expecting the two of them to be so affectionate.
The man in his thirties looked both awkward and embarrassed, which made Wei Wei feel embarrassed for a moment before she started laughing quietly.
Jiang Yu's expression, however, was not good.
He stood up with a sullen face, gave Leng Pusheng a sinister look, and then turned back around.
"It's getting late, you should go to sleep."
His voice was extremely gentle: "The fact that my third brother was beheaded has probably alarmed Father Emperor. I also need to rush to the palace to put on a show."
Wei Wei nodded in agreement and watched his figure disappear from sight.
——
As dawn broke, when Xiaoyue came out of the house, she saw Weiwei already dressed and sitting under the crooked tree, staring blankly at the birds in the tree.
She couldn't help but follow her gaze upwards.
Then she laughed: "Were you woken up by them, Miss?"
Weiwei smiled and said, "Not really."
After saying that, he looked at Xiaoyue'er.
This silly maid had just woken up and her eyes weren't fully open yet.
