"Yes, just as Mr. Ba said, I am in my prime. How could someone of my age not be married yet?" Jiang Ranli replied with a smile.
She did it on purpose. She deliberately said that she was already married. No matter what the Tenth Prince had in mind for her, no matter what the Eighth, Ninth, and Fourteenth Princes thought of her, they should not have any thoughts about a married woman at this moment. It's just...
Jiang Ranli looked at Wu Yanqing quietly. She didn't want him to misunderstand, but she couldn't say anything now. She could only wait for an opportunity to explain later.
"Do you know what Wu Shao Nian Hua means? Were you kidding me by pretending not to know just now?" Yinzhen spoke in a deep voice.
"Brother Jiu, what's wrong with you?"
The Fourteenth Prince looked at his Ninth Brother in confusion. In his impression, his Ninth Brother had never been so harsh in his words. Even when he married a concubine who embarrassed him a few days ago, he had never been like this.
What was his reaction? Was he being tricked? Or was he just bored?
Jiang Ranli frowned slightly. She thought Yinzhen was too weird. His expression was as if someone owed him money. The Eighth Prince hadn't said anything yet, but he was making a big deal out of it.
"I just didn't know just now, and even now, I don't know what the Dance of the Years means."
"Li'er, please say less."
The Tenth Prince spoke softly from the side, reminding Jiang Ranli not to go against Yinzhen.
However, Jiang Ranli was willing, but Yinzhen refused to give up.
"Tenth Brother, please go away. I want to ask her a question today." Yinzhen walked up to Jiang Ranli, his tall figure filled with a strong stern look.
It was noon, which should have been the warmest time of the day, but Jiang Ranli felt very cold. After carefully investigating the cause of the cold, she found that the coldness was emanating from Yin'er.
"Eighth brother, please try to persuade ninth brother."
Seeing that the atmosphere between Yinzhen and Jiang Ranli was becoming increasingly tense, the Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince quickly asked the Eighth Prince to help.
"Miss Jiang, if you don't know what Wu Shao Nian Hua means, why did you say that?" The Eighth Prince couldn't resist his brother's pleading and spoke.
Hearing this, Jiang Ranli withdrew her glare from Yin'er and said, "Eighth Master is very wise. He must be able to see that I am already fifteen or sixteen years old. How could a girl of my age not be married? Otherwise, she would be an old maid."
People in ancient times got married early, most of them were married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, so the reason he found was flawless.
Jiang Ranli silently praised his ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
The Eighth Prince nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the Ninth Prince, "Ninth brother, did you hear what Miss Jiang said? She did not lie to you."
"Who did you marry?" Yinzhen was relentless, still with a sullen face.
"What's it got to do with you?" Jiang Ranli glared back without flinching.
Seeing her like this, Yinzhen snorted coldly, "I want to see who is so unlucky to marry a sharp-tongued woman like you."
"Don't worry, Master Jiu. My life is not that good. I am not the legal wife, just a concubine. So Master Jiu, you don't have to feel bad for my master. After all, no matter how sharp-tongued a concubine like me is, it can't affect my master," Jiang Ranli replied with a smile.
"Concubine?"
The Tenth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
The Eighth Prince and Wu Yanqing also looked surprised.
"Yes, I am my master's twenty-sixth concubine. Do you think my master is a jerk, a playboy, a lecher, a promiscuous and wanton, and deserves to die..."
When saying these words, Jiang Ranli looked at Yinzhen intently and said out loud all the words that she wanted to say to him.
She really wanted to scold him, but the story of the twenty-sixth concubine was made up by Jiang Ranli.
