Chapter 422 Ah!!
Yu Langjing didn't know why the young man's attitude suddenly changed so drastically, but Jiang Tinghuai knew it.
【snort!】
The boy's cheeks were puffy, and he looked as if he was very mad about love.
[Obviously, the father has never done anything to force marriages on his children regardless of their wishes. Why does he make such malicious assumptions about Cheng Cheng's father?! ]
Although her sister Yuexi was also involved, but...
Jiang Yingcheng, however, was very partial to Yu Langjing and only disliked him.
[Sister Yuexi has not interacted with her closest relatives for many years because of her mother, so it is understandable that she cannot understand her father's thoughts...]
[But those in power are confused, while those who are watching clearly see things! How could this love-minded person who has lived in the palace for many years not be able to see the true character of Cheng Cheng's father? ! ]
By the end of this condemnation, Jiang Yingcheng's partiality had reached the point where he had no intention of concealing it and was completely unreasonable.
But the last look he gave upon the purse was filled with anger and reluctance.
Jiang Tinghuai: "..."
Yu Langjing: “…”
"…What is this, little prince?"
Jiang Tinghuai came to his senses and asked the same question as the young man: "My father has never made a unilateral decision on our marriage. Why don't you try first and go to him and express your feelings?"
Yu Langjing froze for a moment with a suspicious look on his face, then suddenly glanced at the young man next to him.
Jiang Tinghuai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a bad feeling arose in his heart.
[Huh?]
Jiang Yingcheng's face was full of confusion.
【Look at what Cheng Cheng is doing? ! 】
Another moment passed.
【Alas!!】
[Sister Yue, Sister Yuexi's mother, has been getting close to Rou Shuyi recently?! ]
Jiang Tinghuai paused, and his eyes suddenly became extremely sharp.
That woman... had just been released from confinement, and she had already done something so shameful.
His father was leading the Da Rui soldiers on the front line, but someone wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to intrigue? !
It also depends on whether he agrees or not!
…
Fang Yiwan hurried back to her own courtyard, waved her hand and drove all the maids out, leaving only a trusted servant to serve her.
Lin Deyun has not returned home yet. In the huge space, the only sounds left are her slightly rapid breathing and the sound of her heartbeat that is about to burst through her chest.
Today, Jiang Yingcheng's behavior could perhaps be explained as innocent and ignorant of worldly affairs, but... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's attitude is enough to explain many problems.
——Although they don’t know the truth about the identities of the two children, this palace has no intention of returning Jinshu to her!
Fang Yiwan clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand, so tightly that her fingertips became almost white and transparent.
If that was really the case, then weren't all her planning and calculations over the years just to help Fang Siwan? !
Her biological son returned to her side, and she was deeply favored by Emperor Mingze because of her daughter!
On what basis?!
Why do they both live such different lives when they are daughters of the Fang family? !
The Fang family treated her unfairly, so she would rely on her own efforts, little by little, to take everything into her own hands!
"Bai Qing!"
"Madam..." Danqing, who had been watching for a while, responded quickly.
Fang Yiwan suddenly raised her head, and the hatred in her eyes frightened Bai Qing so much that he subconsciously took a step back.
"I want you to go to the East City Gate in person tomorrow," Fang Yiwan lowered her voice, "After leaving the city, walk ten miles to the southeast corner. There is a bamboo forest. There is a small house deep in the bamboo forest. Someone will meet you there."
"When the time comes, you can tell that person that... I have something important to discuss with the prince, and I would like him to take some time to come and see me."
Bai Qing's heart beat violently several times.
"Madam, what are you going to do?"
She had been following Fang Yiwan these days, so she naturally knew what they were going to discuss, and immediately tried to persuade her: "Madam, there might be a chance for a turnaround with the young master. If you, if you just tell the prince about this matter——"
"Besides, the young master has been raised by you for several years, he must have feelings for you! You——"
"Bai Qing," Fang Yiwan interrupted Bai Qing in an irritable tone, "If Jinshu really showed that he missed the Lin Mansion in the palace, why didn't he come back to visit until today?!"
Jiang Yingcheng had left the palace several times, but Lin Jinshu had never gone out with her once, and hadn't even written a letter to her!
How could she not be anxious? !
However——
"Don't worry. I won't be completely confident and tell the whole truth to the prince!"
Seeing this, Bai Qing could only grit his teeth and respond.
Early the next morning, after Bai Qing personally helped Fang Yiwan to wash and groom herself, he took the token and sneaked out of the Lin Mansion, heading towards the east city gate.
There was indeed a small house in the bamboo forest.
Perhaps because this place is remote and it is still early, there are no people around for a picnic. Bai Qing looked around, knocked on the door and went in.
The man who opened the door had covered the lower half of his face with a black veil, and the only eyes that were exposed were full of ferocity: "Who are you?"
Bai Qing suppressed her fear and replied, "I am Madam Lin's maid."
The man said nothing and stretched out his hand to Bai Qing.
Bai Qing hurriedly handed over the token.
"Come in." After carefully checking the token, the man turned sideways and let Bai Qing walk in.
The window frames in the room were tightly closed and covered with thick curtains. The entire space was pitch black, and one glance at it would make one feel panicky.
Bai Qing calmed down and quickly told the purpose of his visit: "Our wife is interested in cooperating with the prince, and would like to ask the prince to take some time to meet and discuss in person."
The room was dim, and Bai Qing could not see the expression on the man's face. He only felt that the man's eyes seemed to scan him back and forth for a few times. After a long while, he said "hmm" in a low voice: "In three days, our prince will come to discuss this matter with Madam."
It was low and hoarse, yet it carried with it a hint of the ferocity of a beast slashing at its prey.
Bai Qing shuddered fiercely: "Then, then I will go back first!"
After saying that, she stumbled towards the door, pushed it open, and left the place quickly.
The man watched Bai Qing walk farther and farther away through the window until her figure completely disappeared. Then he closed the window again and walked quickly inside.
"My Lord, as you expected, someone from the Lin Residence has come and said he wants to discuss this with you in person." The man's face was no longer vicious, and his voice was very gentle. "I have already followed your instructions and will come back in three days."
"It's earlier than I expected." The handsome man who had been resting on the couch with his eyes closed slowly opened his eyes and chuckled, "We should thank our little princess for not giving this Madam Lin a good face——"
The man wearing a veil didn't dare to answer.
"Boring." The man on the couch sighed and then closed his eyes.
"Tell your people that they can start preparing for those things."
"yes!"
