The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife
Chapter 414 I disagree
Everyone watched Eunuch Zhang's figure gradually go away, until he completely disappeared from their sight, and then everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Master Jiang walked up with a smile and enthusiastically invited Mu Jiuchen: "My Lord, how about we come into the mansion and have a chat together?"
However, Mu Jiuchen shook his head slightly. He thought to himself: This is not a good time to talk, so he politely and tactfully rejected Master Jiang's kindness.
At the same time, Jiang Li followed his family into the mansion obediently. Just now at the gate, Xie Lan had been holding her daughter's hand tightly and refused to let go. Although her eldest son had already sent a pigeon to inform her that her daughter was safe, as a mother, she was still full of worries. You know, her daughter had gone through many twists and turns on this trip and suffered a lot along the way.
"Li'er, come here quickly and let your mother take a good look at you. Has your throat recovered completely? My dear daughter has suffered so much over the past month." As soon as she finished speaking, the tears in Xie Lan's eyes flowed down like a dam bursting, and she couldn't hold it back.
"Mom, don't cry. I'm really fine now. My throat has fully recovered. You don't have to worry about it anymore." Jiang Li comforted his mother softly while gently wiping the tears from the corners of Xie Lan's eyes with a handkerchief.
Wu'an Hou Xie Bian and Master Jiang, who were standing nearby, also had deep worries in their eyes. Then, both of them showed anger towards Wanyan Yi.
"Okay, come with me to the study!" After confirming that Jiang Li was indeed fine, Xie Bian felt relieved. He turned to his grandson and gave instructions. Then several people walked towards the study together to discuss important matters.
In the study, the atmosphere was heavy and depressing. After everyone sat down, Xie Bian looked at Jiang Li with a serious expression and slowly asked, "Xing'er, tell us everything you experienced along the way." Jiang Li nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and began to tell about her sister's experiences in recent times. As she narrated, everyone's expressions became heavier and their anger was evident.
When hearing some of the outrageous plots, the people present were so angry that they trembled all over, clenched their fists, and wished they could rush out immediately to settle the score with those evil people.
At this moment, Xie Bian suddenly raised his voice and questioned Jiang Li in a stern tone: "Xing'er, tell grandfather the truth! What happened between the Regent and our Li'er?" As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap exploding in the study. Everyone who was originally immersed in anger was stunned for a moment, looking at each other, not knowing how to respond.
Tutor Jiang slowly raised his head and looked at his father-in-law for a moment. His lips trembled slightly, but he finally chose to remain silent.
Jiang Ying, the fool, didn't have so many concerns. He stood up from his seat, stared at his grandfather with wide eyes, and stammered, "What...what do you mean? The prince and his sister? How...how is this possible?" After saying that, he turned to look at his eldest brother sitting next to him, hoping to get a reasonable explanation from him. However, his eldest brother also frowned at this time, looking thoughtful.
Xie Ci rushed forward, holding Jiang Ying's shoulders tightly with both hands, and pressed him hard on the exquisitely carved chair. Then, Xie Ci gently raised his right hand and patted Jiang Ying's slightly trembling shoulder gently but firmly, as if he wanted to pass on a trace of warmth and comfort to him through this simple action.
Looking back, Xie Ci treated his cousin with great care and love. However, when he went to Qincheng to participate in disaster relief a few days ago, many things changed quietly. It was also under this special experience that Xie Ci began to re-examine the relationship between himself and his cousin.
He gradually realized that no matter how hard he tried, his cousin's heart was never with him. Whenever his cousin saw the prince, her eyes, which were originally as clear as water, would instantly ignite with a fiery flame, and the deep affection and love contained in them were simply impossible to ignore. That look was as dazzling as the brightest star in the night sky, but it was also like a sharp dagger piercing straight into Xie Ci's heart.
"The prince has probably had feelings for my sister for a long time." Jiang Xing's words were like a thunderclap, exploding in Xie Bian's heart. In an instant, he felt his blood surge up, a nameless fire instantly burned, and his hands involuntarily clenched into fists.
Thinking back to the day of the birthday banquet, it was he who personally introduced the prince to Li'er, a fact that made Xie Bian regretful. At this moment, his heart was filled with self-blame and anger, and he even wanted to raise his hand and slap himself hard a few times to punish himself for being so foolish.
"Son-in-law, what do you think about this matter?" Xie Bian suppressed the anger in his heart and turned to look at Tutor Jiang who had remained silent, hoping to get some useful advice or solutions from him.
Jiang Taifu looked gloomy, frowned, and looked helpless. He sighed and said, "Alas, what can I do? When I realized what the prince was thinking, it was too late. There was no time to stop him! It's so abominable!" As he said that, Jiang Taifu swung his fist and hit the table in front of him. However, as the punch landed, he suddenly felt a sharp pain - it turned out that he had used too much force and hurt his hand.
"Then no matter what, we must not agree to let Li'er marry the prince!" At this time, Jiang Ying was the first to speak up. His attitude was extremely firm, leaving no room for negotiation.
"That's right! The prince is the regent and holds a high position of power. He will definitely have many wives and concubines in the future. Our Li'er is simple and kind by nature. How can she adapt to such a complicated environment? Living in such a place, she will definitely suffer a lot of grievances!" Jiang Ying muttered softly and shook his head repeatedly, expressing his strong opposition to this matter.
"For now, since the prince doesn't explain, we will just pretend we don't know. Let's observe first. Alas!" This was all Xie Bian said in the end.
Jiang Xing raised his eyebrows after hearing this, haha, Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not that easy for you to snatch my sister away!
