Whether it's the best or the worst strategy, the bottom line is that He Yunxiao must not be harmed.
First, inform He Yunxiao of the impending attack from Yan, so he can prepare in advance and strive for fame and fortune. Then, follow the Yan Emperor's wishes to assassinate Meng Qingqian, but deliberately fail. In this way, only you will die, while protecting your parents and younger brother who are far away in Yan.
This plan seems to be the best possible outcome.
Jiang Wuyou smiled with relief. She was happy. As long as she sacrificed herself, everyone got what they wanted.
...
No sooner had He Yunxiao left than Zhang Jingxian arrived at Congyun Courtyard.
"Xiao'er, where are you going?" Zhang Jingxian stood at Jiang Wuyou's door and called out to He Yunxiao, who was not far away.
He Yunxiao was afraid that Nan Zhu's wife would be seen by his aunt, so he didn't dare to look back and ran away as fast as he could.
Although Zhang Jingxian frequently visited the inner palace, she only saw Nanzhu once, on the Empress Dowager's birthday.
Although it only happened that one time, she would never forget Nan Zhu's appearance. At that time, she was dressed plainly, standing alone among a group of gorgeously dressed royal nobles. She was not noticeable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, one could tell that she was the most beautiful and dazzling. At that moment, Zhang Jingxian sighed: What an innocent and beautiful girl, yet no one paid attention to her, truly like a treasure from the South China Sea far removed from the world.
Nan Zhu's mother, Zhang Jingxian, had seen her and confirmed that she truly deserved the title of the most beautiful woman in the world. Now, her daughter was just as stunning, a beauty in the making.
Zhang Jingxian looked at the small figure beside He Yunxiao, who was also fleeing in a disheveled state, and felt that she had seen him somewhere before; he looked somewhat familiar.
"That boy Xiao'er, even with Wuyou by his side, he still brings other girls home. Isn't he afraid that Princess Nanzhu will get jealous and angry in the future?"
After only uttering a complaint on behalf of Jiang Wuyou, Zhang Jingxian led the maid carrying the food box into Jiang Wuyou's room.
"Don't worry, Mom has made you some food."
Upon opening the food box, one finds various small snacks.
Red dates, raisins, donkey-hide gelatin, black sesame cake...
They're all for nourishing the body.
Upon seeing these things, Jiang Wuyou's eyes instantly welled up with tears. Even if it meant sacrificing herself, she still felt a little wronged.
"mother."
Zhang Jingxian dismissed the waiting maids and put her arm around Jiang Wuyou, saying, "Xiao'er brought another little girl here just now. You must have been wronged, right? Good girl, you got pregnant early, you're of a high generation, and you have your parents backing you up. You'll have plenty of opportunities to bully her in the future."
Jiang Wuyou stopped crying and started laughing.
"Yes, Wuyou will listen to Mother."
