Yu Tanqi's health is getting better day by day.
Jiang Shi felt that the time had come, so he said to Yu Tanqi, "I have a friend who wants to see you. How about asking him to come to the Marquis' Mansion and have a meal together?"
Yu Tanqi said without thinking: "Okay."
Then he realized it belatedly and asked, "Who is your friend?"
Let her think about it, does the male protagonist in the book have friends?
Well, I still have friends.
Jiang Shi said, "It's the eldest prince, Prince Ping Zhao."
Yu Tanqi blinked, revealing a look of surprise at the right moment: "I didn't expect that you, Zi'an, are friends with the eldest prince."
Jiang Shi smiled and said, "Yes, but this is a secret. I will only tell Tan Qi. Tan Qi, please don't tell anyone else."
He was unusually playful, with slightly curved eyebrows and eyes, like a real seventeen-year-old boy, and his whole person seemed much more lively and bright.
Yu Tanqi quickly patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, I'm a very tight-lipped person."
"Well, I believe you." Just like you believe me.
Yu Tanqi was very nervous when she met the male protagonist's friend for the first time.
Jiang Shi’s friend is no ordinary person; he is the future emperor.
She has never seen the real emperor, how can she not be nervous.
The book says that the male protagonist and the eldest prince are like brothers, and they established a deep friendship when they were young.
Even if the eldest prince, who is destined to be an emperor, doubts himself, he will not doubt the male protagonist.
Book fans are overly supportive and even want to have no female lead and have two male leads.
But the male protagonist and the eldest prince are both straight men.
The eldest prince finally inherited the throne and wanted to have children, but he did not select concubines to fill his harem. Instead, he married a commoner girl as his queen, which shocked the entire Wanjin Kingdom.
When Yu Tanqi was watching it, he was thinking, they are indeed the male protagonist’s good brothers, they are both rare good men.
The author is such a good writer, he really knows how to grasp the hearts of female readers.
She even suspected that the author was actually a woman.
But the male protagonist is so miserable. The eldest prince lived his whole life with his wife and had many children and grandchildren, but he died alone.
Even though his reputation will last forever, when he sees the lights of thousands of houses outside in the dead of night, doesn't he really feel lonely in his heart?
Yu Tanqi couldn't help but feel sympathy again.
The fair and beautiful face of a young man appeared before her. He smiled at her with gentle eyes and said, "What are you thinking about, Tan Qi?"
Yu Tanqi came back to his senses and smiled, "I was thinking, this is my first time meeting your friend, so I need to be well prepared."
Jiang Shi said: "Don't be nervous, the eldest prince has a good temper, you just need to treat him normally."
Although Jiang Shi said so, Yu Tanqi still couldn't really treat the eldest prince with a normal heart.
The eldest prince is also another important figure.
Although she had already hugged Jiang Shi's thick thigh, if possible, she would naturally leave a good impression on the eldest prince.
It’s just like when a boy pursues a girl, he will try hard to make a good impression in front of the girl’s friends and get them to speak well of him.
Hmm, this metaphor seems a bit strange.
Yu Tanqi patted his cheeks. It must be because the weather has been too hot recently, so his cheeks are always hot.
She couldn't help but look at Jiang Shi secretly.
The young man in blue was holding a book in both hands and reading it carefully.
Yu Tanqi subconsciously looked down at her clothes. She was wearing a turquoise gauze skirt today, which was very similar in color to Jiang Shi's clothes.
She blinked her eyes, it seemed like they were wearing matching outfits.
Blushing and shy.
…
Compared to the idle Yu Tanqi, Jiang Shi has a lot to do every day.
On the surface, he stayed in the study all day reading and writing, but in fact he was always thinking about the layout.
After all, his body was "getting healthier day by day", and there were countless pairs of eyes staring at the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion, most of which were malicious.
Many people in the capital still remember the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife who were famous in the capital at that time, and have been praising their achievements. However, for some powerful people, the existence of the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife does not make them happy.
These powerful people bully the weak and take human lives lightly. When the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife find out, they will be stripped of their titles at the very least, and at the worst be sent to the Dali Temple and guillotined. How can they not feel resentment?
Obviously, everyone is aristocrats and should stand on the united front, but the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife helped those lowly people, and instead slapped the faces of the powerful and forced them to behave themselves.
Therefore, after the death of Marquis Wu'an and his wife, many powerful people in the capital breathed a sigh of relief and began to act arrogantly again.
As they stared at Jiang Shi, they naturally had no good feelings towards the only child of the Marquis of Wu'an and his wife, and even hoped that he would die young.
As the saying goes, like nature gives birth to like children. If Jiang Shi grows up to be the second Marquis of Wu'an, then their good days will really be over.
Fortunately, their "curse" worked. Jiang Shi was indeed weak and sickly since childhood, and had never left the gate of Wu'an Marquis Mansion before he was seven years old.
They uttered malicious sarcasm: "It must be that the Marquis Wu'an and his wife committed a terrible crime, and it's coming back upon their own child. This child will definitely not live to see the ripe old age."
And then spread rumors in the capital.
"The Marquis of Wu'an's son was born to a mother who died in childbirth, and his father died on the battlefield. He was born with bad luck."
"Anyone who gets close to the Marquis of Wu'an will die a violent death!"
They are a family of wealthy and powerful people with leisure time. They are unaware of the sufferings of the common people, nor do they know how dangerous and difficult it is for the soldiers guarding the border.
All they care about is their own superior and wealthy life. If anyone makes their life difficult, they will curse that person and try every possible means to make that person die miserably.
However, they did not expect that the Prince of Wu'an, who was sick once a month for twelve months, would actually start to "get healthier and healthier" in May of this year.
Someone went to ask Li Yuanshou of the Imperial Hospital. After receiving a positive answer, his eyes turned dark and he almost cursed God for being blind.
How could the child of Marquis Wu'an and his wife live to this day!
What if he really grows up and becomes the second Marquis of Wu'an?
So, even though the Jiang family fell, there were still many people with ulterior motives who were secretly trying to block Jiang Shi's chances of success.
The only way to solve the problem once and for all is to kill Jiang Shi.
They would not allow a second Marquis Wu'an to appear in the capital.
However, the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion was impregnable and no outsiders were allowed to enter. The two doormen guarding the gate looked thin, but they were very good at fighting and refused to accept bribes.
The servants who were in charge of purchasing things in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion every day were even taller and stronger, one could do the work of three men. They would throw away the things they bought as soon as they looked away, leaving no chance for others to take advantage of them.
Those powerful people were so angry that they vomited blood.
The Jiang family is really useless. They have been to Wu'an Marquis Mansion so many times in the past seventeen years, why didn't they kill Jiang Shi directly?
If they had killed Jiang earlier, they would not have ended up with half of their family dead and being exiled.
The same goes for the third prince. It is obvious that his in-laws are more powerful than the eldest prince's, but he is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. He failed in his attempt to frame and murder Jiang Shi, and was demoted to a commoner. Now he has become a disabled person, which is really shameful.
