Chapter 385: Nowhere to Find
Every autumn rain brings a chill.
Some are happy and some are sad.
After Jiang Zijin saw the posted notice.
He fell seriously ill as soon as he got home.
But it gives rise to a kind of morbid beauty that makes me feel pity.
This made Prince Chen even more fascinated and more distressed.
He liked Jin'er's beauty, but he liked her smart mind and non-competitive nature even more.
If the first meeting was a heart-pounding moment, now it is a mutual admiration.
Perhaps it is because both of them have a past that they cannot bear to look back on.
Now she is not only his lover, but also his confidant and military advisor.
Jin'er was framed and wanted, but she never mentioned seeking justice in front of him.
He even dragged his sick body to give him advice.
"Your Highness, although Prince Jing is now indulging in his pleasures and neglecting state affairs, his previous methods of pacifying the refugees have won the hearts of the people. We must not let our guard down. He is a cunning fox who has tucked in his tail."
"Jin'er is absolutely right. Then what should I do?" King Chen knew Xiaowu's cunning better than anyone else.
He was kidnapped by kidnappers for a year, but he was able to come back alive and safe.
I have to say he is really lucky.
The main reason is that this guy is too good at pretending, and he has become a useless person, but the emperor did not reprimand him, but just said a few words in a harmless way.
I don’t know where my heart has gone.
"Your Majesty, how can you make a man lose his composure?"
Prince Chen thought about it.
"Depressed and frustrated."
"What else?"
"I was scolded by my father and brothers every day."
"What else?"
"Lost a loved one?"
Jiang Zijin nodded, "Not entirely. Losing his loved ones might make him depressed for a while, but it might also inspire his fighting spirit. But what if a fire breaks out in the backyard and the harem continues to fight?"
"Jin'er, it is really a blessing for me to meet you." King Chen's face lit up with joy and he kissed Jiang Zijin on the forehead.
"You should take a good rest. I will come to see you later."
After Prince Chen left, the maid Yaer came in to report, "Your Majesty, they are a step too late. Xing'er's parents and brothers have already been sold by Concubine Tao."
Jiang Zijin felt a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He was coughing and out of breath, his face flushed.
It took a long while before he caught his breath.
"Who? Who did you sell it to? Buy it back for me no matter how much it costs."
Yaer said cautiously, "Yes...it's Madam Lu."
"who?"
"Lu...Lu Qingyao."
Jiang Zijin clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, his pale little face flushed red with anger.
It’s Lu Qingyao again.
Why does this person always haunt me?
She gritted her teeth and said, "Go get the list of the ladies in the capital. It's time for my father to marry a new wife. How can he let a concubine take care of the household?"
Yaer: "What kind of wife does Your Majesty want Lord Jiang to marry?"
"She can be from a higher family background, but she must be a legitimate daughter, a bit bold, and able to control the old lady and Tao Tao. Most importantly, her father and brother must be the prince's men."
Jiang Zijin took the list and flipped through it listlessly. After flipping through it for a while, he threw it to Yaer.
Finding such a person would surely make her father very happy.
At least it can't be worse than Lu Qingyao.
But if he is controlled by her and the prince, it will also let his father taste the suffering that she and mother suffered in the past.
Yaer was a little embarrassed, but didn't dare to say it out loud.
Although Lord Jiang held a low official position, he was still a talented young man. Perhaps it was because of his luck that he was able to marry the daughter of a prominent family.
But now, Lord Jiang, although he holds a high official position, has a lot of children and his age is also there.
It is not easy to marry a concubine's daughter from a noble family, let alone a legitimate daughter from a noble family.
That's just asking too much.
Seeing Ya'er's gloomy face, Jiang Zijin said with a wry smile, "I didn't ask you to help my father find a virgin girl. Those whose husbands have died or who have divorced are just right for him."
Yaer: ...
The legitimate daughter of a noble family, willing to marry Lord Jiang as his second wife, is a bit hot-tempered, and is also a widow or a divorced woman.
No matter how you look at it, it sounds like he's looking for trouble.
…
After Lu Qingyao got the indentures of Xing'er's family, she was worried about leaving them in the mansion for their safety.
So they placed them in their own dyeing and weaving workshop.
evening.
When Lu Qingyao returned home, Xiuxiu also arrived home.
The whole family sat around the table.
Even Princess Yuqing came to eat for free.
Ever since she had eaten the meal cooked by Xiuxiu, she had become familiar with eating at Luyuan.
The main reason is that the princess’s mansion is too deserted.
People are like this. After experiencing the warmth of home, they will miss it and worry about it.
Although it wasn't Xiuxiu who cooked today, her cooking skills were still 80% of hers.
When Xiuxiu entered the room, she saw Princess Yuqing sitting in the upper seat.
Without even saying hello, she washed her hands and sat next to her elder sister.
Princess Yuqing had to get used to this arrogant and rude woman who only had eyes for her sister.
After all, I still want to eat the food she cooks again.
Xiuxiu drank a cup of tea before speaking, "Sister, it's just as you expected. As soon as we bought Xing'er's family, someone came looking for them. Unbelievably, it was Jiang Yunze."
"Is it him?" Lu Qingyao didn't expect that Jiang Yunze would actually contact the daughter of a wanted criminal.
This is so unlike him.
Xiuxiu continued, "Someone from the Sansheng Temple actually attacked Master Juehui, but luckily they didn't succeed. They fought with the yamen runners, which only confirmed the fact that Jiang Zijin had escaped. But there's something even more incredible. Sister, guess where I followed that group of people to?"
"Where are you following?" Lu Qingyao came closer.
"Auntie, where did you follow me to?" Miaomiao and Princess Yuqing also came over curiously.
Xiuxiu drank another cup of tea and said slowly: "A house. I checked and it belongs to Prince Chen's mansion. There are too many masters inside, so I didn't dare to go in."
"Prince Chen! Why is it him again?" Princess Yuqing sneered when she heard the name.
This bastard actually dared to spread rumors that she had a lover.
Now he actually wants to help that Jiang family girl...
Wait, why would he help Jiang Zijin?
Princess Yuqing seemed to have thought of something.
Lu Qingyao also thought of it, and looked at Princess Yuqing and smiled at each other.
It is true that after searching for a needle in a haystack, it was finally found without any effort.
The little girl is quite cunning.
He actually hooked up with the fourth brother.
Princess Yuqing curled up the corners of her lips into a smile. She was feeling that the day was boring and wanted to find something fun to relieve her boredom.
It’s just right, I’ll have some fun with her.
She looked at Lu Qingyao and said, "Leave the little girl to me. You are going to the Liang Palace to discuss marriage tomorrow, so go ahead and don't worry about anything else."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Lu Qingyao nodded slightly.
Princess Liang returned to the capital.
The first thing to do is to send someone to tell A Niang.
Miaomiao looked at her two mothers, hesitating about who to go with.
It should be very interesting to follow the princess to Prince Chen’s Mansion. I wonder how Jiang Zijin will react when he sees her?
But according to reason, he should go to Prince Liang's mansion to recognize his relatives.
Princess Liang is my father's cousin, which means she is her aunt.
With her around, the chances of this marriage being successful are very high.
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. When Princess Yuqing saw her like this, she knew that her daughter wanted to go with her to Prince Chen's Mansion and also wanted to go to Prince Liang's Mansion.
In fact, she also wanted to go. Cui Yan should be there for such occasions.
But when I thought about meeting Princess Liang.
Forget it.
I always feel like an ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law.
She is not suitable for this occasion.
He patted his daughter's head and said, "Miaomiao, go to Prince Liang's Mansion with your mother tomorrow, and go to Prince Chen's Mansion with me the day after tomorrow, okay?"
"good……"
