After Jiang Weiyang returned home, his face was solemn. He went straight to the study without stopping for a moment.

When Princess Jin Guo learned the news that Jiang Weiyang had returned home, she was overjoyed and came to the door of the study in person, bringing with her a carefully prepared and beautifully decorated food box.

Rufeng saw from a distance that it was the Princess of the Kingdom of Jin, and his expression instantly became extremely respectful. He quickly ran forward and bowed respectfully, "Greetings, Princess. I wonder if the Princess has anything important to tell you?"

Even though the Princess of the Kingdom of Jin had been married into the Marquis' Mansion for some time, everyone in the Mansion was well aware of the ins and outs of this matter. Therefore, on the surface they still maintained due courtesy and politeness towards her, but they never called her Madam.

"You are close to the Marquis, so there is no need to be so polite. Just call me Madam. Calling me Princess seems too distant. Let me ask you, is the Marquis in there?" The Princess of the Kingdom of Jin spoke in a gentle tone, with a seemingly very kind smile on her face. That smile was like the warm spring sun, but if you looked closely, it seemed to be hiding something mysterious.

"In reply to the princess, the master is inside." Rufeng responded with his head down, a little cautious. His eyes were always lowered, not daring to look the princess in the eye, as if he was afraid that he would accidentally anger her.

The princess did not care about Rufeng's address to her. She knew very well that she must not offend this person easily. After all, he was a very capable and trusted person around the Marquis. She had not yet established a firm foothold in the Marquis's mansion. If she made an enemy at this time, she would probably have a harder time in the future. Thinking of this, a barely perceptible haze flashed in the princess' eyes, but she soon returned to her seemingly peaceful expression.

"Then please tell them that I'm outside the door asking for an audience!" The princess still had a smile on her face, but that smile made Rufeng feel cold, as if she was smiling with a knife hidden in her heart. But the emperor had ordered to treat her well, and he couldn't disobey the order.

"Princess, please wait a moment. Let me go in and ask the master's opinion." After Rufeng said this, he turned around and walked into the study carefully.

The princess tidied her clothes gently, her face full of anticipation. Just when she was happy to think that the marquis would definitely meet her, Rufeng quickly opened the door and came out. "Princess, please go back first. The master said that if you need anything, just go to the lady. There is no need to look for the master." Rufeng's tone was calm and cold.

"You don't know that only the Marquis can help me with what I ask for. You go in and talk to the Marquis and tell him that I have something to discuss with him about between the two countries." The princess said anxiously, her eyes full of anxiety and pleading, and her voice trembled slightly.

Rufeng wanted to refuse the princess, after all, the Marquis's attitude was very clear. But when he heard that it was a matter between two countries, he knew that it was a serious matter and did not dare to delay for a moment. His heart tightened, and he turned around, opened the door and walked in. His steps were a little hurried, and beads of sweat unconsciously oozed out of his forehead.

After a moment, Rufeng walked out respectfully, bowed slightly, and said humbly: "Princess, please!" Then he carefully invited the Princess of the Kingdom of Jin in.

Then, he hurriedly called a servant who was guarding the door and said in a low voice, "Go and tell the lady to come over!"

The princess walked in slowly with graceful steps. At this time, Jiang Weiyang was sitting at the desk, writing something attentively. The princess looked up and saw his majestic figure. Various scenes in the bathroom emerged in her mind. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and her shyness was beyond words.

Jiang Weiyang noticed someone coming in, looked up and saw that it was the princess who came in, and quickly stood up to prepare for the ceremony. Although the two had already married, he had never regarded the princess as his wife in his heart. In his heart, the princess was always just a noble princess.

When the princess saw Jiang Weiyang was about to salute, she became anxious and quickly stretched out her jade hand to support Jiang Weiyang.

However, Jiang Weiyang moved extremely quickly and quickly moved sideways to avoid the princess' touch.

"Since you and I are already married, why should we be so polite?" The princess looked resentful, her eyes fixed on Jiang Weiyang, her tone full of helplessness and grievance.

"Princess, you should know the reason. I don't need to say anything more." Jiang Weiyang's face was stern, and he moved slightly, not giving the princess any chance to get close. "I don't know what the matter between the two countries is that Princess is talking about? I hope the princess can explain it clearly."

"My Lord, are you really going to treat me with courtesy like this all the time? Since I've already married into the Marquis' Mansion, you should treat me better, right? I'm also a living person! Although I'm a hostage in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, I'm also a person with flesh and blood, emotions and thoughts.

I also want to find someone who truly loves me. I don't want to get involved between you and my sister, but how can I survive in the mansion if you treat me like this? "The princess' voice was a little choked up when she said this, and she took her handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from her eyes.

"But the servants treat you badly? You can go to my wife, she will arrange everything for you. I never interfere in the affairs of the rear house. If everything is fine, please go back, Princess!" Jiang Weiyang frowned, his expression still cold, and did not give her any chance to explain or defend herself.

"No one treats me badly, and it is precisely because of this that I feel even more sad. May I ask, Lord Marquis, are you determined to let me live out my life alone? I am only seventeen years old, in the prime of my life, and I don't want to die quietly in the Marquis's mansion." The princess was in tears, and her pitiful appearance made people feel pity.

Jiang Weiyang didn't say anything else, as if he didn't hear anything, he just sat down at the desk and started writing. At this moment, he only had one thing in mind, that is, he didn't want anything to happen that would cause Qing'er to misunderstand him.

Seeing this, the princess quickly reached out to wipe away her tears, walked forward and carefully placed the food box on the desk.

Seeing this, Jiang Weiyang quickly stopped him and said, "What are you doing?" His tone was full of impatience.

The princess was startled by his sudden roar, her body trembling slightly, and after calming down, she said, "I made some food and wanted to leave it for the Marquis. I won't disturb the Marquis, I'll leave it and go. I've already made it, you can't let me take it back, right?? Don't you think so??"

Jiang Weiyang thought it would be a good idea to send her away quickly, so he said, "Just leave the food box here, Princess, please go back!"

When the princess was asked to put it down, a look of success flashed across her face. She then put down the food box and turned to leave.
