As soon as it was light, rumors spread that Old Madam Jiang had caused a scene at the Prime Minister's residence over the second branch of the family, and had even stabbed the Prime Minister in the neck.
The second wife, Madam He, blocked the Crown Prince's carriage in the street and uttered wild words, committing a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of her family. The Prime Minister, clutching his neck, went to the Eastern Palace to plead for mercy.
Lin Qingwan pursed her lips, "She was stabbed in the neck by the old lady and still had to plead for her."
"Not to mention those people outside, even His Majesty can feel the bitterness in Father's heart."
Jiang Su made a brilliant move; compared to crying and trying to clear her name, this tactic was far more effective. She even suspected that He Shi's act of stopping the carriage was orchestrated by someone with ulterior motives.
Her biological parents are more terrifying than demons.
Furthermore, Qiu Hong said that the madam was dissatisfied that the prime minister had quietly announced their true identities to the world, and Jiang Yanwan cried all morning, saying that she wanted to leave the prime minister's residence.
Lin Qingwan was prepared for Jiang Zhenlin to have a fight with her first.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhenlin's face darkened considerably, but he didn't get angry.
“My sister is leaving, and my mother is heartbroken. Go and try to persuade her.”
Lin Qingwan said, "If I go, my mother will be even angrier."
Jiang Zhenlin saw her come out of her room at Ningsi Garden, still looking like she hadn't slept enough, and suddenly felt good.
She didn't go with anyone else; she went home.
He pursed his lips. "Say something to let my sister stay in the Prime Minister's residence."
Lin Qingwan looked at him. "I didn't let her leave."
"Did someone from the Prime Minister's residence drive her away?"
Although it was a question, it made Jiang Zhenlin's eyes flicker. Yes, no one had asked his sister to leave from beginning to end, so why did they all assume early in the morning that Lin Qingwan wanted to drive her away?
Lin Qingwan saw the answer on his face. It had been like this from the beginning. Jiang Yanwan openly displayed the word "dominate," and if he suffered any grievances, people would think that he was forced by her.
In the past, she was angry and resentful, and she would speak to her mother with emotion. In comparison, she was the one who was narrow-minded and intolerant.
Jiang Yanwan didn't need to say a word to portray the bullied victim.
She couldn't learn this innate savagery.
Seeing that Jiang Zhenlin remained silent, Lin Qingwan took a sip of hot tea and said unhurriedly, "Since no one is chasing her away, why is she making a fuss?"
Jiang Zhenlin choked, feeling inexplicably annoyed with his older sister.
"By the way, when you entered the palace yesterday, did the Imperial Concubine give you any trouble?" He felt guilty and showed concern for Lin Qingwan.
Lin Qingwan said frankly, "If I remember correctly, last time you asked me to plead for you, I refused, and you kicked me so hard I almost collapsed. This time you suddenly care about me, and I'm really scared."
