Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow

There were only a few words in the letter, but she read it for a long time.

In her previous life, in order to please Qin, she not only refused entry to Mother Wu, but also threw the letter at the bottom of the box.

If she had opened the letter at that time, would there have been a different ending?

Wiping the tears from her face, she stood up and locked the document in the box. Then she sat back and burned the letter over the candlelight.

In the flickering firelight, the girl's eyes were filled with a determination she had never seen before.

The paper ashes floated into the air, swirled, and finally fell to the ground.

The agarwood in the room was only half burned, and no one could smell the scent of burning paper.

She sat there quietly in a trance.

Mother said: Don't treat yourself badly. The money of the Duke's Mansion was given by her, so live your life to your heart's content.

The dowry and banknotes she left behind were enough to support her living in seclusion and live a stable life. If she spent them all, she would just write a letter to her maternal grandparents in Jiangnan.

Don't believe anything anyone says and don't look into anything about her past.

The jade pendant should not be shown to others easily, as it can save lives in times of crisis.

She had many doubts and thought she could find some clues in her mother's letters, but now it seems that is impossible.

But what about the last two things my mother mentioned?

Why not investigate the past? Why can't the jade pendant be shown to others, yet it can save her life?

In her previous life, this jade pendant followed her until her death, and no one came to save her.

It's getting really confusing.

That night, Chunhuayuan.

The two of them had dinner, and Qin was helping Jiang Zhou change his clothes and rest.

Jiang Zhou was in a rare good mood, and he pulled Qin to sit on the bed together.

Qin's eyes were as charming as silk.

Although she is over 30 years old, she still has a unique charm.

Jiang Zhou had no time to care about anything else at this moment, he was only thinking about being a father-in-law!

He asked in a nonchalant manner, "Madam, what do you think about marrying Luo'er to Lord Lu?"

Qin stopped taking off her clothes and asked in surprise, "Are you talking about Lord Lu who came to the mansion today?"

Jiang Zhou nodded with shining eyes: "How many Lord Lu are there in the Yong Dynasty?"

The more he thought about it, the more he found it to be to his liking.

If it really works, he will be able to walk around Yongjing with his head held high!

"This...isn't he a little too old?" Qin asked carefully.

How does this work?

Although Lu Jinan had a bad reputation, the daughters of good families in Yongjing City all kept their distance from him.

Not to mention his identity as the Prince of Jing, he is now a favorite of the Emperor and truly powerful.

If Jiang Luo married him, she would not be able to take even a penny of the dowry left by Wu!

Jiang Zhou narrowed his eyes and said in obvious displeasure: "What does it matter if he's a few years older?"

Qin and Jiang Zhou grew up together and lived together in the Duke's Mansion for so many years, so she knows his temperament best.

Seeing that he was about to get angry, she quickly agreed, "Master is right. There are people in Yongjing who are ten or eight years older. Besides, from what I see, this Lord Lu is only about twenty years old, at most five or six years older."

Jiang Zhou was satisfied.

He thought of Jiang Luo's attitude today, and said with a gloomy face: "Lord Lu is young and promising, he is the commander of the second-rank Jinyiwei, and he is also the prince of Jing. He is worthy of that rebellious girl in every way!"

If you want to be someone's father-in-law, you have to be young and promising. Before, you were cursing "absolutely heartless" and "traitorous minister of Dayong" every day in the mansion.

It must be said that she knew Jiang Zhou's character best: he was heartless, sycophantic, and selfish.

At the beginning, if the Qin family had not been of low rank and status in Yongjing City, she would not have set her sights on Jiang Zhou.

As the Duke, he was the man of the highest status she could marry and who was willing to marry her.

Qin tried again, "That's it... Mr. Lu's reputation is really scary."

"Reputation? That's for outsiders. If Lu Jinan really becomes the son-in-law of the Duke's Mansion, who would dare to be rude in front of me!" he said loudly.

He stroked his beard, as if he had already seen those people in the court, especially those who had looked down on him in the past, bowing and scraping to him.

Hearing what he said, it seemed that he had already made up his mind to marry that bitch to Lord Lu...

Qin no longer argued with him.

He just agreed: "Yes, yes, you are right, the master has a keen eye."

Qin must be quite capable to be able to make someone like Jiang Zhou fall in love with her for more than ten years.

While making him happy, she asked again, "Master, what about Yin'er? In Ningyang Marquis's Mansion..."

Jiang Zhou thought for a moment and said, "Yin'er will marry Ling Xun and become the Crown Prince's wife. The marriage contract with Ningyang Marquis's Mansion cannot be lost."

In the past, the old Duke Zhenguo Jiang Hai and the old Marquis Ningyang Ling Guang followed the late emperor to conquer the world, and the two of them once led troops into battle together.

Later, in a battle, Jiang Hai was shot in the chest while trying to save Ling Guang. He was in a coma for more than ten days before waking up and almost died on the battlefield.

The old Ningyang Marquis Ling Guang discussed with the old Zhenguo Duke Jiang Hai that if their grandchildren were a boy or a girl, they would marry the first child.

His father had exchanged his life for this marriage, how could he just give it up to someone else?

Qin said pitifully, "My poor Yin'er, she is the eldest daughter, but her engagement was originally due to..."

But how could Jiang Zhou not know why?

Qin's words made him feel that he owed a lot to her and her daughter.

He quickly hugged Qin and comforted her, "I'm sorry for all these years, you and your daughter have been wronged. Don't worry, I will find a way to solve Yin'er's marriage."

Qin lay in his arms, soft as a boneless woman, with her eyes lowered as she listened to him speak.

What Jiang Zhou couldn't see was the unwillingness and hatred in Qin's eyes.

Wait, wait...it's always these words.

Qin Xiu Yue has waited to become the second wife, so does she want her daughter to wait to become the second wife as well?

She didn't care. Her daughter must be the legitimate wife of the Crown Prince!

The next morning, Su Mu walked into Lu's house in Yongping Lane, exhausted.

This is the house under Lu Jinan's name. Since it is close to the Northern Pacification Office, he lives here when he is not returning to the palace.

Later, when he was on a business trip out of Beijing, he saved Xu Yuan's family who were fleeing.

In order to repay their gratitude, the whole family followed Lu Jinan.

He settled Xu Yuan's parents in this house.

Xu's mother took care of his daily life and diet, while Xu's father was responsible for looking after the house.

Lu Jinan also arranged for Xu Yuan to serve in the Jinyiwei.

Xu Yuan did not disappoint him and within five years he was promoted to the position of Captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

At this moment, in the martial arts arena in the house, Lu Jinan was dancing with the sword with great energy.

As Su Mu stepped into the martial arts arena, the sword attacked him.

He hurriedly mobilized his internal breath, exerted all his internal strength, bent his waist backwards and almost fell down, but he managed to avoid it.

He patted his chest as if he had survived a disaster, and let out a long breath.

Lu Jinan did not continue to pursue. His sword was just a quick counterattack after being assassinated for many years.

He took the towel handed to him by Xu Yuan, wiped his strong body with it, and asked as he walked towards the study: "What did you find out?"
