Rebirth of a Lost Nation: Princess, Please Respect Yourself

Feng Quan was stunned for a moment before reacting, and asked tentatively: "What if the Queen knew?"

"I'm sure she'll be unhappy." Jiang Lige replied readily, "I have things to do these days and really don't have the energy to fool around with Chuchu. If the Queen is willing to do it for you, that would be great."

The implication was to spread the news and let Empress Xiao find trouble with Jiang Chuchu.

Only by holding Jiang Chuchu back can Jiang Lige free up his hands to do his own thing.

Feng Quan thought that Jiang Lige had suffered a great loss this time, but he suddenly came to his senses and was actually happy for Jiang Lige in his heart, and immediately agreed happily.

"Slave, let's do it now!"

Having said that, the man lifted the curtain and left the room.

Feng Quan was sent by Empress Dowager Jiang, so his abilities should not be underestimated. Jiang Lige has never doubted Feng Quan's loyalty.

In fact, Fengyue had reminded Jiang Lige several times to be wary of Jiang Chuchu, but Jiang Lige never listened.

Later, after a complete break with Empress Dowager Jiang, Fengquan was recalled to her side.

In the end, he died in the fire together with Empress Dowager Jiang.

If I have to blame someone, I can only blame myself for being confused in my previous life.

I remember that Jiang Chuchu had advised Jiang Lige in the same way in her previous life. At that time, she had never suffered any hardship. When she heard about the chaos in Prince Zhao's Mansion, she immediately backed down.

But she did not forget her duties as the Princess of Nanchu. While she was hesitating, she heard Princess Zhao gossip about her being "unfaithful and unclean" in the hunting ground.

At that time, she was troubled by rumors about "staying overnight in the mountains". In anger, she had a big quarrel with Princess Zhao, and finally she was rescued by the eighth prince Ning Luyang.

After the incident at the hunting ground, Jiang Lige's reputation for being domineering, arrogant and vulgar became known to everyone.

But she herself was completely unaware of it, and even developed some feelings for Ning Luyang who came to her rescue at that time, and did all kinds of stupid things.

When the wheel of fate turns again, in this life, Jiang Lige will make them taste the consequences of their own actions.

……

Jiang Chuchu has had a really hard time recently. She doesn't know what's wrong with Empress Xiao that she's causing trouble for her every day.

Empress Xiao first scolded her for no apparent reason, and then confined her for her defiance.

Life became even more difficult after the house arrest. Either there were bugs in the food, laxatives were found by the well, or rats got into the house.

This caused her to have trouble eating and sleeping, and she lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

Unfortunately, Jiang Lige has been unwell recently and has been recuperating in Qingge Cottage without going out, leaving Jiang Chuchu with nowhere to turn for help!

In desperation, Jiang Chuchu had to hand over a letter to Ning Luyang. She did not mention Empress Xiao, but instead put all the blame on Jiang Lige.

When Ning Luyang came over at night, he saw Jiang Chuchu's pitiful appearance, weak and vulnerable, and felt heartbroken.

"How could there be such a vicious woman!"

"She is the legitimate daughter of the Empress Dowager and the eldest sister. A princess like me, so unloved and helpless, would be beaten and killed with just a word."

Jiang Chuchu lowered her eyes slightly, looking even more pitiful.

Ning Luyang slammed his palm on the table and said angrily: "I want to marry you, what does it have to do with her!"

"Lü Yang, I was born to be your sister's companion. When I get married, I can only be your concubine. If you want to marry me, you can't go past your sister."

Ning Luyang frowned, obviously quite disgusted.

"Is marrying her the only solution?"

"Yes, this is the only way." Jiang Chuchu nodded firmly, and then gently comforted him: "Lu Yang, although my sister is a bit domineering, marrying her will benefit you a lot."

How could Ning Luyang not know?

I have never been valued since I was born. Now I am over the age of coming of age and still have no title, let alone a marriage.

If she married Jiang Lige, apart from other things, at least the two things of leaving the palace to build a house and entering the officialdom would be secured.

Thinking of this, Ning Luyang sighed and touched the top of Jiang Chuchu's head with pity.

"Chu Chu is thinking about me wholeheartedly. Don't worry, even if I marry Jiang Lige, I will only treat you well in this life."

"I know that Chuchu only loves Lu Yang in this life."

The moonlight is alluring, the curtains flutter in the wind, covering up the spring scenery in the room.

On the other side, as soon as Ning Luyang left Jiang Chuchu's yard, Feng Quan entered Qingge Cottage to report.

Jiang Lige was not surprised. "What did he say? Did you hear it clearly?"

Feng Quan shook his head. "It was far away, so I couldn't hear clearly, but he mentioned the spring hunt several times."

"Spring Hunt?" Jiang Lige grinned. "It looks like the Spring Hunt will be very lively!"

Feng Quan was speechless and choked. "Princess, maybe they are setting a trap here."

"If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. You can't escape it even if you hide on the first day. Others have already set up a trap, so we have to go and see what it is!"

"It's late, you should go and rest." Feng Quan wanted to persuade him again, but Jiang Lige waved his hand and said, "Get enough rest, we'll meet at the Spring Hunting Ground!"

"..."

Therefore, in the next few days, Feng Quan watched Jiang Lige eating and sleeping every day, and called it "being on high alert". It seemed that the worried Feng Quan was "making a fuss over nothing".

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of spring hunting.

Only royal relatives or prominent families from Shengling Kingdom are eligible to be invited to the Spring Hunt.

The Spring Hunting Ground is not only a place for prominent families to socialize over drinks, but also a place for young men to seek a good future and for young women to find good husbands.

Jiang Lige had no future aspirations and no marriage to worry about. He lazily leaned on Empress Dowager Jiang's carriage all the way into the royal villa, ready to lie down.

Jiang Chuchu's invitations were declined by Jiang Lige several times on the grounds that she was "too sleepy", which made her so anxious that she developed mouth ulcers. Unfortunately, both Queen Mother Jiang and Jiang Lige loved spicy food, and the spicy food on the table made Jiang Chuchu cry.

Every year's spring hunting involves the same few steps, and hunting is not something women do, so Jiang Lige can only chat with a group of noble ladies in the tent with her hair heavy with pearls and jade.

During the spring hunt in his previous life, Jiang Lige had become "notorious" because of rumors, and even the Queen Mother Jiang was ashamed. He had to be careful to avoid such occasions, and even the fruit in front of him was tasteless.

This time, she successfully avoided the beginning of the rumor. Now she sits here with elegant manners, handling the conversations with the ladies with ease and receiving a lot of praise.

Jiang Chuchu, who was standing far away, smiled and said, "Go ahead and laugh. I want to see how long Sister can be so proud!"

After complaining inwardly, Jiang Chuchu found an opportunity to come forward and whispered to Jiang Lige with a smile.

"Sister, shall we go for a stroll by Taiye Lake? I just saw Princess Zhao heading in that direction. The imperial decree has been issued, so we need to get to know this Princess Zhao."

Jiang Lige swallowed a mouthful of fruit and nodded in agreement, "That makes sense."
