Su Ruojin returned to the inn and had just changed her clothes when she heard someone knocking on the door.
Su Ruojin became wary. Since Xiao Yanchu was returning, there was no need to knock on the door. If it were Yan Luo or Hu Qing knocking, they would definitely speak first.
"who?"
"Madam Jiang, we are from the Princess's residence and have come to invite you to the Princess's residence."
Su Ruojin opened the door and saw that one of them was the princess's guard who had come to the inn that morning to invite Xiao Yanchu.
"Madam Jiang, please."
Su Ruojin raised an eyebrow. Xiao Yanchu hadn't returned yet; it seemed he had been left at the princess's residence.
She invited him, and now she's inviting me again. What exactly does Princess Yuening want?
It seems I have no choice but to go myself to find out the answer.
Let's go.
Su Ruojin asked no more questions and followed the guards to the princess's residence.
Princess Yuening had changed out of her light gauze dress and put on a bright red palace gown, sitting upright and waiting for Su Ruojin.
Su Ruojin gave a slight bow to Princess Yuening and said, "Greetings, Princess."
"How dare you! You don't even kneel before the princess!" Mu Qin roared.
Su Ruojin ignored Mu Qin and looked at Princess Yuening, "Princess, where is my husband?"
Seeing that Su Ruojin ignored her, Mu Qin's anger surged. She gave a wink, wanting the two nannies to force Su Ruojin to kneel, but Yue Ning stopped her with a raised hand.
Princess Yuening looked Su Ruojin up and down. Last time, she had only caught a fleeting glimpse of her in the carriage and hadn't really taken a good look at this Madam Jiang.
Today, even though Su Ruojin was dressed in a plain white brocade robe and only had two white jade hairpins in her hair, she still couldn't hide her aloof and noble temperament and her unforgettable beauty.
Even Yue Ning felt that although the woman in front of her was not as good as her, she was still worthy of Jiang Qi'an.
Yuening did not answer Su Ruojin, but simply clapped her hands lightly, and ten maids filed out and stood in two rows in front of Su Ruojin.
Each maid carried a tray with gold ingots, silver ingots, various jewels and ornaments, and fine clothes.
Su Ruojin looked at Yuening in confusion, "What does the princess mean by this?"
Yuening smiled and said, "Madam Jiang, you've accompanied Young Master Jiang all over the country, it must have been very tiring. I'll give you a chance to live a life where you never have to travel around and suffer again, and you'll have no worries about food and clothing."
Su Ruojin looked at Yue Ning calmly, without saying a word, waiting for her to continue.
Yuening couldn't discern any emotion on Su Ruojin's face and continued, "Madam Jiang, if you're willing to leave Young Master Jiang, all of this will be yours. These things are enough for you to live a life of luxury for the rest of your life, so why bother working so hard? Madam Jiang is a wise woman; she knows what to choose."
After speaking, Princess Yuening stared intently at Su Ruojin, trying to discern something from her expression.
Unexpectedly, Su Ruojin remained expressionless, as if she hadn't seen or heard anything she said, and asked again, "Princess, where is my husband?"
How dare someone ignore her!
Princess Yuening's smile gradually faded.
She clapped her hands again, and ten men, each with a different appearance but all incredibly handsome, stepped forward and stood in two rows in front of Su Ruojin.
“Madam Jiang, if you agree, these ten young men can serve you at your side. Wouldn’t that be wonderful? If you are still not satisfied, you can make any demands.”
Su Ruojin slightly raised her eyelids and looked at Princess Yuening, "I didn't know that the princess of Xiaoyue Kingdom couldn't understand human language. Then I'll ask again, Princess, where is my husband?!"
Su Ruojin's words were already impatient and filled with anger, and she put her hands into her sleeves.
She had already observed and calculated when she came in; the place where she was now, including the guards, had no more than thirty people.
These maids and young masters are standing so close that a little bit of medicine powder could knock them out.
She was only a few steps away from Princess Yuening, and she was absolutely certain that she could grab Yuening by the neck before the other guards arrived.
"Zhao Ruojin, how dare you!" Yue Ning had also lost her patience and was about to call someone to beat up Su Ruojin to see if she would still dare to disregard her, the princess, like this.
