Chapter 522 Return to Bo's Mansion



Jiang seems to have the habit of taking a nap. Maybe it was because he had been up all night, so he slept for half a day. When he opened his eyes, it was almost evening.

Yu Jin was leaning on a low couch not far away, reading a book. When he saw Jiang Si open his eyes, he put the book aside and came over: "You're awake."

Jiang Si propped himself up and asked, "Have I slept for a long time?"

"You slept for quite a while, and you can tell you were exhausted last night." Yu Jin poured a glass of water and handed it over.

Jiang Si took it and drank a few sips, and the feeling of weakness after sleeping for a long time finally subsided.

"I have good news for you."

Jiang Si put down the cup and asked with a smile, "What good news?"

"Princess Rongyang is dead."

Jiang Si couldn't help but stop laughing.

It was somewhat unexpected that Princess Rongyang died.

"How did he die?"

Could it be that she couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide? This is not something that Princess Rongyang would do.

Yu Jinyun said calmly, "He was killed by Cui Xu."

Jiang Si was even more shocked: "Is Cui Xu crazy? He killed Princess Rongyang. Father will definitely not forgive him and the Cui family."

Yu Jin smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of him. He killed Princess Rongyang and then committed suicide."

Jiang Si fell silent.

She had never expected that Cui Xu and Princess Rongyang would end up like this.

"I used to look down on people like Cui Xu, but what he did today made me feel that he is still a manly man." Yu Jin said lightly.

In his opinion, since he already has a sweetheart, he can't marry someone else even if the king of heaven forces him to. And since he has accepted his fate and married someone else, he should stop thinking about her.

So he always looked down on Cui Xu.

And today, Cui Xu learned that his lover was killed by Princess Rongyang. After killing Princess Rongyang, he committed suicide, which made Yu Jin feel that he still had some blood in him.

If it were him, he would do the same.

Faced with others hurting his beloved, he can always endure it rationally, which only shows that this man's love is hypocritical.

"I want to go back to the Earl's Mansion. Father should know about this."

"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."

The next day, the two of them went straight to the Dongping Marquis's Mansion.

The Bo's Mansion had received the letter in advance, and the gate had already been opened. The steward led a number of people waiting at the door, and as soon as they saw the carriage from the Prince of Yan's Mansion coming, they immediately sent someone in to report the news.

Master Jiang Er and others hurried over and personally welcomed Jiang Si and the other two in.

"The old lady has been waiting for the prince and princess." Old Master Jiang said with a smile.

Yu Jin tilted his head and asked Jiang Si: "Where are we going first?"

Mr. Jiang Er's smile disappeared.

What does the King of Yan mean by this? Could it be that Jiang Si doesn't want to go to pay respects to the old lady and let her do it?

I have seen people pampering their daughters-in-law, but I have never seen anyone act so recklessly.

Of course, we didn't dare let him lose his temper, and even when Jiang Shizhen suggested going somewhere else first, we had to accept it with a pinch of our nose.

Even Princess Rongyang lost her life when fighting her niece, what dare he do?

At this moment, Mr. Jiang felt deeply aggrieved: Why couldn't he raise a daughter as promising as Jiang?

"Uncle, is my father here?"

"Your father left home before we received the letter from the palace. I have sent someone to look for him. I believe he will be back soon."

Jiang Si then said to Yu Jin: "Let's go to Ci Xin Tang."

She was very reluctant to meet her grandmother, but since she was there, she had to pay her respects.

Old Madam Feng was waiting anxiously in Ci Xin Hall. She only breathed a sigh of relief when the maid reported that someone had arrived, and she put on a kind and dignified attitude.

Jiang Si and the other man came in and greeted Old Madam Feng.

Madam Feng's eyes fell on Jiang Si's abdomen and she asked, "How is your health?"

"Very good." Jiang Si said concisely.

"It's been a little over four months now, and I can hardly see it."

"The good doctor just said that everyone's situation is different. Thank you grandma for your concern."

Madam Feng shook her head and said, "The princess is pregnant and her condition is not as good as usual. Try to go out less in the future."

Jiang Si said calmly: "I came to see my father."

Old Madam Feng was feeling a little angry.

How could this stubborn and bad-tempered girl gain the upper hand among so many granddaughters? She really didn't take her seriously at all. She said she came to visit the eldest granddaughter directly in front of her, which was just like treating her as a grandmother who didn't exist.

But all this anger could not be vented, and Old Madam Feng had to put on a smile: "Your father went out early in the morning."

"Then I'll wait for my father to come back."

"It's almost the New Year, it's not appropriate for your cousin to stay in the palace, grandmother, please send someone to bring her back."

Jiang Si smiled and said, "Neither the Duke's Mansion nor the Prince's Mansion is my cousin's home. It doesn't matter where she stays. I won't bother with it any more. It's a good opportunity for her to keep me company."

Madam Feng frowned: "But she has also caused you a lot of trouble. If I had known that her brother was such a jerk, I should not have allowed him to come to the capital—"

"It's okay. People like that are just little idiots who can't cause any trouble." Jiang Si's face was indifferent, and his tone was even more indifferent. "Even if he is a self-righteous big shot, it's not that easy for him to cause trouble for me. Don't worry, grandma."

Madam Feng's mouth twitched slightly, and she was speechless when she thought of Princess Rongyang's fate.

Half an hour later, Jiang Ancheng came back, looking cold.

"Where have you been?" Old Madam Feng frowned habitually when she saw her eldest son.

Jiang Si had already walked over quickly and said in a gentle voice, "Father, have a cup of hot tea to drive away the cold."

Yu Jin promptly handed over the hot tea.

Jiang Ancheng didn't think anything of it and took a few sips of the hot tea.

Old Madam Feng felt a pang of sadness in her heart: after Prince Yan greeted her, he didn't say another word, but he was attentive in serving tea and water to the eldest brother.

Master Jiang Er was even more furious.

My elder brother is so useless yet he is respected by the Prince of Yan. If the Prince of Yan were his son-in-law, I wonder how much help he would give him in officialdom.

It's such a waste that such good luck goes to my eldest brother.

Jiang Ancheng finished his hot tea and said to Old Madam Feng, "Mother, let the prince and Si'er come to my place and sit for a while. I won't disturb you to rest."

In the blink of an eye, Ci Xin Hall was empty and Madam Feng almost cursed.

She was just taking a break. She wanted to ease the relationship with the fourth girl but was delayed by the ignorant eldest sister. She was really pissed off.

The bluestone road was swept clean, and the snow piled up on both sides made it look dirty.

Jiang Ancheng walked in front, with Jiang Si and Jiang Yi on his left and right, while Yu Jin lagged behind quite a bit.

"I'm going to bury your mother." Jiang Ancheng said softly in the cold wind.

Jiang Si and Jiang Yi looked at each other.

Jiang Yi said: "Father——"

Jiang Ancheng raised his hand and said, "No need to persuade me, I'm fine."

His voice became softer and softer, as if it was blown away by the wind: "I dreamed of your mother last night. She said that the person who hurt her was punished. She has no regrets. She will wait for me to reunite with her wholeheartedly in the future."

Jiang Si and Jiang Yi's faces changed.

Jiang Ancheng turned around and rubbed their hair like he did when they were little: "Don't worry, I will still watch Yanyan get married, watch Si'er's child grow up, and then bring these good news to your mother."

Jiang Si and Jiang Yi were relieved and accompanied Jiang Ancheng to Minghua Hall.
