The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

"Princess." Hearing the familiar voice, Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and saw her mother in a dark blue dress.

"Mother, why are you here?"

The wife of Yong'an Marquis was full of anxiety: "Princess, what's going on? I heard that you were imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice."

She ran all the way here in a panic, but saw the little girls chatting happily, it didn't look like they were in prison at all.

Shen Jiarou smiled faintly and said, "Mother, don't worry, your daughter is just staying here for a while."

The wife of Yong'an Marquis asked uncertainly, "Is it true?"

"Really." Shen Jiarou pulled her to sit down, and the wife of Marquis Yong'an finally felt relieved after hearing this.

"That's good, but how long will you stay here?"

Shen Jiarou pursed her lips and shook her head: "I don't know yet."

She still didn't know how her father would punish the Minister of Justice and his family, but she couldn't let her injustice go in vain.

"But if you need anything, just tell mother. For example, you can get anything you want, such as food or daily necessities. Please don't hesitate to ask for it."

"Okay, mother, please send someone to deliver some long-stored food to your daughter when you go back." It would also be inappropriate to not let the mother deliver any food, as it would make her even more worried.

"Okay, mother will arrange it when she gets back."

The mother and daughter talked for a long time. After listening to them, the wife of Yong'an Hou was so angry that she wanted to go to Jiang's house and scold him.

"This is too much. How could he speak to you like that? The emperor will definitely not let him off easily this time." She knew how much favored her daughter was.

Seeing that she was very angry, Shen Jiarou spoke to comfort her.

"Mother, don't be angry. It's not worth it to get yourself hurt by anger."

"Mother is worried about you." Her daughter was so young, yet she listened to so many nonsense from that playboy.

Shen Jiarou smiled gently: "You should go back and rest. I'll have to trouble my mother and grandmother to explain everything."

Madam Yong'an patted her little hand and said, "Mother, save it. I will explain it to you."

Watching her leaving, Shen Jiarou suddenly fell silent. Ruan Qingling was afraid that she was not feeling well, so she asked with concern.

"Princess, are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Jiarou shook her head, and accidentally raised her eyes and saw the Jiang family, so she walked over.

"I've been here for two days, why haven't I seen any members of the Xu family come to see you." Aren't their two families future in-laws, so why hasn't she seen any members of the Xu family come? And she found that there had to be even one person coming to see the Jiang family.

Jiang Ruofan looked depressed when he heard this, and he lowered his head helplessly.

"They were here when the princess moved in."

Seeing his elder brother making light of it, Jiang Ruofeng spoke out in indignation.

"Yes, I came here, but I broke off the engagement with my eldest brother."

Shen Jiarou and others looked at Jiang Ruofan in shock, only to see him lowering his head sadly. Shen Jiarou stopped talking, mainly because it was not appropriate to say anything at this time.

"Ruofeng, stop talking." Father Jiang, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke, shocking everyone.

Shen Jiarou raised her eyes to look at Jiang's father who was covered in injuries, then looked back at Jiang Ruofan.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that."

Jiang Ruofan said in a sad tone: "Ignorance is not a crime. Originally, this matter has nothing to do with the princess."

Shen Jiarou was silent for a moment. The air was full of awkwardness. Everyone was speechless. Shen Jiarou raised her eyes and met Jiang Ruofan's. She retracted her gaze, turned around, picked up a box from the desk, turned around and walked to the iron railing again.

"Here's some candy for you. It's very sweet."

Jiang Ruofan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the girl who came back was bringing him candy.

Ruan Qingling also looked at her princess with a puzzled look: Princess, are you feeling sorry for Lord Jiang?

Seeing that he didn't move, Shen Jiarou looked into the box and felt embarrassed for a moment.

"I'm sorry. I didn't think it through." She grabbed a handful and carried it to the railing.

"Give."

Seeing that familiar jade hand with a handful of candies in its palm, Jiang Ruofan reached out and took it.

"I thank the princess for the reward."

Shen Jiarou said softly, "You're welcome."

After she finished speaking, she turned around, took the box and walked to her recliner and sat down. She looked down and saw the candy in the box, then raised her eyes to look at Feng Jingyun.

"Master San, forget it, let Sister Zirou go. Sister Zirou, give the remaining candies to the women of the Jiang family."

Zhang Zirou responded respectfully: "Yes, Princess."

She took the candy box and walked towards the cells where the Jiang family women were kept.

Shen Jiarou felt a gaze on her, and she suddenly raised her eyes to look at the iron railing where the Jiang family members were standing, and her gaze met Jiang Ruofan's, and both of them turned their heads away uncomfortably.

Jiang Ruofan looked at the candy in his hand, walked to his father and sat down. He picked up a candy, peeled it, and put it next to his father's mouth.

"Father, have a candy. The princess said it's very sweet." It was rare for Father Jiang to see his eldest son so sentimental. He opened his mouth slightly and took the candy into his mouth.

"It's very sweet. Eat it all. Don't waste the princess' kindness."

Jiang Ruofan nodded with tears in his eyes: "Okay."

He picked up one, peeled it and put it in his mouth. The candy was really sweet, even to their hearts.

Jiang Ruofan looked at his brother: "Ruofeng, have some candy."

Jiang Ruofeng bent down, picked up one, peeled it and started eating. After watching his younger brother eat it, he looked at the three people from the second room.

"Uncle and my brothers, please have one each."

The three of them looked at each other, and finally walked over, picked up a candy and put it in their mouths. This candy was the sweetest thing they had eaten since they were imprisoned in prison, and it brought a little comfort to their miserable bodies and minds.

The women of the Jiang family looked at the candies in Mother Jiang's hand and fell into deep thought. Mrs. Jiang was full of doubts.

"Sister-in-law, why did the princess give us candy?" They also learned today that Princess Yongkang was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice.

Mother Jiang shook her head. Ever since she learned that the Xu family had broken off the engagement with their Jiang family, she had felt extremely upset. Her good son had waited for him for four years, but in the end, he got such a result.

Zhang Zirou saw that they all looked unhappy and didn't know what to say. When she was about to leave, someone stopped her.

"Girl, please wait a moment."

Zhang Zirou turned around in confusion: "Madam, is there something wrong?"

Mother Jiang calmed her mind and looked at Zhang Zirou cautiously.

"Princess, could you please send someone to deliver a letter to the Xu family for us?"

Shen Jiarou was stunned after hearing what Zhang Zirou said: "Mrs. Jiang said that?"

Zhang Zirou nodded: "Yes, Princess."

Shen Jiarou looked at Jiang Ruofan and found him looking surprised.

His mother actually wanted him to marry into the family to protect him?

"Princess, there is no need to trouble the Xu family with the matter of the guilty minister."

Father Jiang hesitated a bit, and what the lady said made sense, as it could save a descendant of the Jiang family.

"Ruofan, we must leave a descendant for our Jiang family."

Jiang Ruofan looked at his father in disbelief, with a sad face.

"Father, how can a son live alone in this world?"

Shen Jiarou and Ruan Qingling looked at each other silently, without saying a word, and decided to let them discuss it themselves first.

Father Jiang asked his second son to help him up and kneel down in the direction of Shen Jiarou.

"I beg the princess to help our Jiang family. I will repay your kindness in my next life by working like a slave."

Shen Jiarou looked at Jiang Ruofan and confirmed again: "Have you thought it through?"

Seeing his father like this, Jiang Ruofan had no choice but to kneel down as well.

"I have made up my mind."
