She was like a dead dog, her throat tightly gripped by Jiang Changting, whose eyes were red.
That meant they really wanted to kill her!
Jiang Changhe was terrified and couldn't even put up a fight!
She had never seen Jiang Changting like this before.
Those manners and upbringing have vanished without a trace.
She's a madwoman now!
However, the Ming Prince's Mansion is not ultimately under Jiang Changting's control.
She had only been in Jiang Changhe's courtyard for a short time when the Prince of Ming had already rushed over.
No one dared to disobey his words.
Jiang Changhe was rescued.
Looking at Jiang Changting, who had lost his mind, Ming Wang frowned and coldly rebuked him: "He's just an unimportant man, yet he's turned you into this wreck. Have you forgotten all the lessons I taught you before?"
Following behind, Princess Ming hugged her terrified woman with heartache, her words full of reproach.
Jiang Changting stopped speaking, but the hatred revealed in his usually gentle eyes sent chills down one's spine.
She chuckled softly: "Jiang Changhe, let's see how long you can hide."
Jiang Changhe never dared to leave the courtyard of Prince Ming and Princess Ming again.
I stayed there for two days.
Of course, King Ming also sought out Jiang Changting.
Whether scolded or spoken to kindly, Jiang Changting simply wouldn't respond.
Before leaving, he added, "Keep a close eye on your precious daughter, or you know what will happen."
The royal family is not very close-knit. Looking at Jiang Changting’s emotionless eyes, Ming Wang had no doubt that she had a chance and would really kill Jiang Changhe!
While he was furious, he also began to blame Jiang Changhe for provoking Young Master Du.
Over the years, he has clearly known how deep his feelings for that young master Du are, as the eldest legitimate daughter!
What a terrible thing to do!
He said nothing more and turned to leave.
"So your father has already acquiesced?"
Wei Wei asked, somewhat incredulously.
Jiang Changting nodded with a cold smile: "The Ming Prince's Mansion hasn't produced a single male heir, and Jiang Changhe is utterly useless."
Even if he doesn't like me, his heart has to lean towards me. After all, that useless Princess Ming can't bear a son.
Wei Wei now understood why Jiang Changting could have absolute authority within the Ming Prince's Mansion.
Given the choice between such an excellent daughter and an unreasonable daughter who only knows how to yell and embarrass her father, even a fool would know which to choose.
"Then the only obstacle is Princess Ming?"
Wei Wei asked again.
Jiang Changting replied, "Although my father will no longer stop me from taking action against Jiang Changhe, he will certainly have someone protect her."
"After all, no matter how bad she is, she's still his daughter."
At this point, he added with a hint of disdain, "Over the past few years, I've made some preparations in order to be able to make my own decisions."
“I am no match for him in the Ming Prince’s mansion, but outside the Ming Prince’s mansion, the people he left by Jiang Changhe’s side may not be able to do anything to my people.”
She paused for a moment before continuing, "The only tricky part is how to lure Jiang Changhe out."
"However, after learning about your entanglement with her, I have another solution."
She looked at Wei Wei: "I want you to be the bait."
Wei Wei already knew this would be the outcome, so she wasn't too upset about it. After all, she had done it once before in Loucheng, and it was countless times more dangerous than this time.
"I have no problem. Now we can discuss what time would be more appropriate."
Seeing that she agreed so readily, Jiang Changting's smile widened considerably.
"Whether this matter succeeds or not, I will remember your favor and I will definitely make sure nothing happens to you."
With her assurance, Wei Wei was quite satisfied.
She originally wanted to kill Jiang Changhe, and now that she had a more suitable accomplice, there was nothing better than this.
Then they whispered among themselves about when it would be safer to proceed.
In the end, everyone agreed that it would be safer to take action only after Jiang Changhe lowered his guard.
But the first thing Jiang Changting needs to do is let go of the hatred in his heart, and at least stop being a thorn in the side of the Ming Prince's mansion.
After a few days, Jiang Changhe, knowing that Jiang Changting's mood had calmed down considerably, decided to go out.
However, Princess Ming immediately stopped her.
"Your father said that you should obediently copy the Precepts for Women in the courtyard! After he finishes his business, he will send you to your maternal grandmother's place to play for a while."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Changhe's eyes widened: "I don't want to! My grandmother went to the mountains to recuperate, but I'm still so young, I don't need to recuperate either!"
Princess Ming's face was grim: "It's just a short stay."
"I'll come pick you up after this is all over! Be a good girl, okay?"
What greeted her was a teacup that Jiang Changhe smashed on the ground in a fit of anger.
"You are the Princess Consort of the Ming Prince's Mansion! Why are you afraid of Jiang Changting?"
"She's nothing but a hypocritical scoundrel! If you want to kill me, why don't you find a way to kill her instead?"
"Why should I hide? Why?!"
After saying that, she ran back to her dormitory crying.
It would be strange if Princess Ming didn't hate her daughter for turning out like this.
However, she could not give birth to a son, and the palace valued Jiang Changting highly, even Consort Rou was helpless.
The King of Ming had also explicitly warned her not to do anything underhanded to Jiang Changting.
Therefore, she had no choice but to withdraw!
Suppressing all the hatred in her heart, all she had to do now was to soothe her daughter's emotions.
The next day, she invited a woman from a prominent family who was on good terms with Jiang Changhe to come into the mansion to keep her company.
The reason, of course, was that she was too naughty and had been confined to her quarters by her father.
After several days of counseling, Jiang Changhe's temper gradually improved.
Just when the day of Ming Wang's leisure was about to arrive, something unexpected happened.
One of the women from a prominent family, while speaking to her, suddenly mentioned the newly opened rouge shop in the capital: "Business is booming, and demand far exceeds supply."
"I originally planned to buy some of their new, in-demand items, but I ended up having to wait seven days."
Jiang Changhe had caused a scene that day, so naturally he knew about it.
But what she didn't know was who the boss behind her was.
Now one of her friends spoke up: "I heard they used to be from Loucheng, and their family specialized in making rouge."
"I don't know how I came to the capital recently."
She looked at Jiang Changhe and asked, "Princess, didn't you say you had been to Loucheng before? Do you know that Wei family owner? She's a woman, I think her name is Wei Wei."
"She's shrewd. She got involved with Princess Changting, and no one dares to cause trouble in her shop. She's really made a fortune."
These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, leaving Jiang Changhe stunned on the spot.
