Fu Hanlai was always worried that Jiang Xuelin would soften her heart. After all, anyone with eyes could see that Fei Qing's situation in the palace was really bad, while Jiang Xuelin was actually a kind-hearted and generous girl.
Otherwise, the Jiang family would not have let the Yongchang Marquis's family off so easily after what they did; that was the last face Jiang Xuelin gave Fei Qing.
In Fu Han's opinion, Jiang Xuelin should naturally have no further contact with Fei Qing, and this is not just because of the Third Prince.
Jiang Xuelin took out some pastries from a hidden compartment in the carriage. She picked up a piece of osmanthus cake with her slender white fingers, looked up at Fu Hanlai, and sneered with a hint of mockery, "What, do I look like such a sucker?"
"She is indeed not doing well now, but she has gotten what she asked for. Moreover, she is now a prince's wife, and soon the third prince will leave the palace to establish his own residence. She will be a secure princess consort and may not regret her choice. I don't need to feel sorry for her." The palace banquet was indeed very lavish, but it was already Mid-Autumn Festival, and the temperature in the capital was still a bit low. The dishes on the banquet were a bit cold, and the taste was naturally not very good. Jiang Xuelin didn't eat much, and now she was a little hungry.
"Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. As for me, out of consideration for our friendship of several years, I did not ruin her plans, which can be considered as leaving her with a last bit of face. The last bit of affection has been used up, and whatever happens to her in the future is none of my business."
She could no longer have much contact with her; it would be best to treat each other as strangers. Given Fei Qing's intelligence, she should be able to understand her meaning.
If Fei Qing still comes looking for her under these circumstances, Jiang Xuelin will look down on her.
On the day Jiang Xuelin was plotted against by the Yongchang Marquis's mansion, she pretended not to know about the scheme because she didn't want Fei Qing's situation to worsen in the mansion. Anyway, she was prepared and thought it wouldn't be difficult to avoid it. But after Fei Qing fell into the water, everything changed.
That day, Fei Qing was wearing clothes of a similar color to hers. After falling into the water, Jiang Xuelin tried to save her and take her away from the ill-intentioned Third Prince, but unfortunately, she failed.
At the time, Jiang Xuelin didn't think too much about it. She regretted her rashness and ended up hurting Fei Qing, who had helped her. With such an incident happening in front of everyone, Fei Qing's reputation was ruined, and she had no choice but to marry the Third Prince.
The third prince was ambitious but lacked the skills to match his ambition, and coupled with his despicable conduct, he was certainly not a good man.
Although the Yongchang Marquis's family plotted against her, which ultimately led to their own daughter being implicated, this could be considered retribution. However, Fei Qing was her close friend, and Jiang Xuelin naturally did not want to harm her.
It wasn't until later, when she recalled what happened in the lake that day, that she felt something was amiss. After investigating further, she finally understood what had happened.
From then on, Jiang Xuelin felt no guilt towards Fei Qing. The Jiang family thought the Third Prince was not a good match, but perhaps he was a hot commodity in the eyes of others. Jiang Xuelin just didn't expect that Fei Qing thought the same way.
They were even willing to scheme against themselves for this.
When Jiang Xuelin first heard the news, she thought she had made a mistake and checked it several times before finally confirming it.
At that time, her relationship with Fei Qing was completely over. Therefore, even though Fei Qing came to see her off when she got married, she only had someone send her wedding gifts in advance when Fei Qing got married.
I was not present.
She's someone who can let go easily. Fei Qing made his choice, and in the end, it was just a matter of different paths; there's nothing to regret.
She can distinguish between good and bad, and between different distances.
In the future, she will walk her own sunny path, while Jiang Xuelin will cross his own narrow bridge, going in opposite directions.
"If you ask me, you should expose all the things she did and all the schemes she plotted to my third cousin and the Imperial Concubine." Fu Hanlai glanced at Jiang Xuelin, fanning himself with a folding fan in one hand while picking up a plate of osmanthus cake with the other, eating as he spoke.
Given the personalities of the Third Prince and the Imperial Concubine, and the outcome they initially desired, Fei Qing's life would only get worse once they knew what he had done.
The mother and son wouldn't let her go, after all, they might think that if it weren't for Fei Qing, Jiang Xuelin might have become the Third Prince's second wife.
Of course, Fu Hanlai knew that even without Fei Qing's intervention, the Third Prince would not have succeeded.
Given the Marquis of Jing'an's influence with Emperor Xuande, it wouldn't be difficult for him to request a favor. In addition, he had already reminded Jiang Xuelin of the Third Prince's plan to request a marriage decree, so the Jiang family would definitely be wary of the Empress Dowager granting a marriage.
However, the Third Prince and his mother did not think that way.
Fei Qing disregarded their relationship and schemed against Jiang Xuelin. It was only because Jiang Xuelin was magnanimous that she didn't take action.
Thinking back to the day he had to be tied to Jiang Xuelin, Fu Hanlai still felt full of complaints!
It's all Fei Qing's fault!
Otherwise, even if Fei Qing didn't want to marry him, he could have found a well-educated and reasonable princess consort, instead of spending all his time with Jiang Xuelin!
snort!
As for Fei Qing's preference for the Third Prince and his obvious disdain for him, Fu Hanlai was too lazy to bother with it.
He was a playboy to begin with. If he didn't like a girl like Fei Qing who was skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and etiquette since childhood, then so be it. It was fine this way. Otherwise, it would be even more of a loss if he found out after marriage that his wife didn't like him.
Does that mean his innocence isn't innocence at all?
Moreover, Fei Qing's initial secret spread of rumors was probably just an attempt to annul her engagement with Fu Hanlai.
But since she didn't like Fu Hanlai and was unwilling to accept the marriage, she offered up the handkerchief that had once saved her as a sacrifice... Haha! It's clear that this woman was no pushover either.
This is the main reason why Fu Hanlai didn't hold a grudge against Fei Qing.
He felt he had escaped a terrible ordeal.
His mother was also a cunning and shrewd person, but she was upright and would not scheme against her own people, much less act like a venomous snake.
"There's no need for that. Besides, Fu Ashou, you don't think I'm just being soft-hearted, do you?"
Isn't that so?
Jiang Xuelin felt a toothache.
"I won't comment on the choices she made, but do you think she'll get what she wants?"
Will the Third Prince be able to achieve great things in the future?
How could that be!
Jiang Xuelin is taking revenge on the Third Prince.
What about Fei Qing?
Does it have no impact?
Of course not.
It's just that it's not as obvious as with the Third Prince.
Jiang Xuelin knew pretty much what Fei Qingqiu wanted, so she didn't need to do anything extra.
I already said that I was just leaving her with a final bit of kindness.
Fu Hanlai knew Jiang Xuelin very well. As soon as he heard this, he immediately understood. He then put down his folding fan and rubbed his hands together. "Ugh, you're really scary."
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
He raised his foot and kicked it.
