Chapter 69 The Eunuch Who Can't Be Presented



After leaving the Meng residence, Jiang Yu did not rest.

After returning to Osmanthus Lane and changing his clothes, he rushed to the Jiang residence.

Jiang Changhe's situation is now very critical. Although he has always been at odds with her, he still has to give Jiang Luan some face.

Let's take a look and show some interest.

Let's also hear about their plans for the future.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Aunt Nie kneeling on the ground with a desperate face.

His eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes were full of concern.

"Brother."

He respectfully called out to Jiang Luan, who was sitting to the side, before turning to look at the figure lying behind the gauze curtain: "I heard that Chang He had an accident. How is he now?"

Jiang Luan sighed with a sullen face: "All she does is cause trouble all day long. I should have opposed her when she proposed to buy the house opposite the Meng family's house."

"Now look what's happened! While everyone wasn't looking, he not only sneaked out to cause trouble, but he also tripped and fell, causing himself serious injury!"

He said, "Imperial Physician Jiang just came to see her and said that her injuries are very serious. We must take her back to the capital for treatment immediately, otherwise she may die."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu opened his folding fan and fanned himself vigorously. His gaze fell on Aunt Nie kneeling on the ground, and his voice was cold: "The princess is ignorant, and you servants are ignorant too?"

"Third Brother has told her more than once to stay at home obediently. If she really can't stand it, you should accompany her to go for a walk around the neighborhood!"

"There are so many places to visit, how come I can't see any of them?!"

Jiang Changhe was disobedient to his discipline, and the servants around him followed suit. But now that Jiang Changhe has gotten into trouble, Aunt Nie was scolded so badly that her head almost touched the ground, and she didn't dare to utter a sound.

So they didn't see the fleeting smile in Jiang Yu's eyes.

He fanned himself faster with his folding fan, his tone tinged with reproach: "This girl is already of marriageable age, yet she remains so unruly and unreasonable. What will become of her once she's married?"

Jiang Luan, unusually, didn't say anything nice for her anymore, but instead gave a cold laugh.

However, he didn't say anything in the end. Instead, he turned to Aunt Nie, who was lying on the ground trembling, and said, "Go back and pack your things. We'll set off for the capital in an hour."

Aunt Nie retreated, her legs trembling.

Jiang Yu waited until the person had walked away before asking in surprise, "Brother, are you leaving?"

Jiang Luan responded, "That's right."

It was clear he didn't want to leave either. His face twitched slightly before he said, "But now that Changhe is in trouble, even though he did it himself, the King of Ming won't listen to that explanation."

"I must take her back myself."

Jiang Yu closed his folding fan, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Why don't I take Changhe back to the capital? I've had enough fun here these past few days anyway."

His nonchalant expression made Jiang Luan chuckle: "You can't handle the task of taking Chang He back to report."

“The King of Ming is not someone who can be easily fooled. If you go, it will only give him an excuse to make things difficult for you again.”

Jiang Yu opened his mouth, then sighed softly, "That old man, he's always been good at belittling the weak and flattering the strong."

"Although I am not as capable as my brother, I am not entirely useless either."

Jiang Luan listened with some helplessness: "You're right, that old man Ming Wang is indeed difficult to talk to. But he holds real power, so I, as his elder brother, have no choice but to put on a smiling face."

"Otherwise, why would they have agreed to let this eccentric girl come along?"

Now, sure enough, something bad has happened.

Jiang Yu stopped making excuses and said, "Then I will do my best."

Jiang Luan hummed in agreement: "There's no need to be too nervous while I'm away."

"Things have calmed down for a while now, and I suspect that someone has already figured out our purpose."

"

"Brother, you mean... people from the capital?"

Jiang Luan nodded: "I'll go back and check who's been acting strangely lately, and see if I can dispel that person's suspicions."

"You're here to observe the Wei family and also protect them from any uncontrollable accidents!"

After saying that, he called out to Zhou Quan, who had been waiting at the door.

"During this time, you must assist your seventh brother well!"

Zhou Quan agreed, then looked at Jiang Yu with a forced smile: "Seventh Prince, please bear with me in the future."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "No, no, I wouldn't dare."

Jiang Luan left, but left behind his chief eunuch, Zhou Quan.

Like Jiang Changhe, Zhou Quan never really respected the seventh prince, who had pledged allegiance to his master but only knew how to have fun and had no ambition.

After watching Jiang Luan leave, his smile vanished completely: "Seventh Prince, everything is fine here for now, please go ahead."

Zhou Quan wanted to get Jiang Yu to leave, so he didn't even bother with the pretense anymore.

But Jiang Yu leisurely sat down in the armchair next to him, crossed his legs crookedly, and asked, "Where does Eunuch Zhou want to take me?"

"I'm tired from playing today, so I'm not going anywhere. I'll just stay here and rest for the night."

Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Zhou Quan's face fell.

“This is a house bought by Princess Changhe. If she finds out you live here in the future, I won’t know how to explain it to her.”

Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow and glanced at him: "She's my sister, what's so hard to explain?"

At this point, he revealed a half-smile: "Could it be that she can tolerate a servant like you staying here, but not me, the dignified seventh prince of Cang Kingdom, staying here for one night?"

Seeing Zhou Quan's face turn into a kaleidoscope of colors, he suddenly laughed again: "Never mind, never mind, I was just joking with you."
