Ruan said with a low brow, her heart already filled with joy. It was not like they had no place to live. You know, the emperor had already given Jiang Zhongming a mansion, right next to the Duke's Mansion.

In recent years, she only stayed at General Jiang's mansion for a few days during important festivals. She was free on weekdays. Compared with the open and secret struggles in the Duke's Mansion, she wanted to move there and live a simple life.

Of course, although she had always wanted to move in, it was difficult to separate because Old Madam Jiang was around. Now that it had been proposed, she naturally wanted it.

Jiang Hongtai had never thought that he had only done such a trivial thing, and everything he had done in the Duke's Mansion would be wiped out. He was immediately furious, but his face was full of pain. He looked at Jiang Mingxuan reluctantly and said:

"Brother, we have lived together for so long, how could it come to this?"

"All good things must come to an end. You know, my father left a will before his death, telling us to each establish our own faction. I've put it off for so long, it's time to obey!"

Jiang Hongtai was speechless and felt resentful towards the old Duke. They were both his sons, but they did not receive the same treatment. How could he not hate him?

Seeing Jiang Hongtai remain silent, Mingxuan couldn't help but comfort him, "You don't have to worry so much. Even if we live separately, we are still brothers. I will choose a bigger place for you to live in Kyoto when the time comes. I will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

Jiang Hongtai did not take Jiang Mingxuan's words to heart. How could the residence outside be compared with the Duke Dingguo's Mansion?

But now that the matter has been decided, there is no room for change. No matter how much I don't want to, there is no way to change this fact. I can only accept my fate and bow and agree: "Thank you for your sympathy, big brother. However, now that the Royal Concubine's birthday is approaching, it is really not appropriate to make it too public. How about waiting until the Royal Concubine's birthday is over and then discussing this matter in detail? What do you think?"

Jiang Mingxuan felt guilty about this matter. Now that Jiang Hongtai said this, there was no reason for Jiang Mingxuan to refuse. He immediately looked at Jiang Hongtai and said:

"Of course you can. The villa also needs to be cleaned up and renovated. We can take advantage of this opportunity to hire someone to take a break. Then we can move in directly with our luggage. It's quite convenient!"

"That's what Big Brother said,"

Jiang Hongtai lowered his eyes, hiding all his resentment in them. He felt depressed and clenched his fists tightly. He was determined to repay the humiliation he suffered today tomorrow.

Yuan Peishan had never expected that they were just discussing how to deal with Fang's family, but now it turned out that their second branch was kicked out!

Seeing Jiang Hongtai's gloomy face, Yuan Peishan didn't dare to continue pestering him. She could only accept her fate and take Fang to the second room's residence.

Seeing Jiang Wanrong coming towards her, Yuan Peishan could not help but quicken her pace, and then directly pulled her back.

Jiang Wanrong endured the pain in her hands and followed Yuan Peishan's steps closely. Yuan Peishan was now only concerned with the resentment in her heart that she had nowhere to vent, and did not notice the pain that flashed in Jiang Wanrong's eyes.

When the two returned to their room, Yuan Peishan looked directly at Jiang Wanrong and said, "Now that the old lady has spoken, we will move out of the Duke's Mansion after Concubine Yuan's birthday. You'd better be mentally prepared. You know, this world is full of people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak. When the time comes, there will definitely be many people who will laugh at our second house!"

"What did you say? Moving out of the Duke's Mansion? Why?"

Jiang Wan looked at Yuan Peishan in surprise, her face full of disbelief. She touched her injured arm, and Jiang Wanrong's eyes were full of worry.

You know, now that she has the support of the Duke's Mansion, she can also get some praise. Yuan Bingyan is still a little afraid. If she doesn't even have this, then Yuan Bingyan will become even worse.

Thinking that she was stabbed by Yuan Bingyan when she just went out for a party today, if she had run slower, she would have been killed on the spot. Now that she has lost the protection of the Duke's Mansion, won't she be able to move forward in the future?

A trace of vicissitudes flashed in Jiang Wanrong's eyes. She certainly couldn't rely on others for everything. Only when she became strong could she do what she wanted to do! The only way to change her fate now was to marry into the royal family. Only then would she have a chance to change her own destiny.

Jiang Wanrong's blood boiled at the thought of having them all crawl at her feet. She then looked at Yuan Peishan and said seriously, "Mother, did Concubine Yuan ask you to plot against Jiang Shuyu?"

Yuan Peishan looked at Jiang Wanrong in surprise. She didn't expect her to ask this question suddenly. She knew that Jiang Wanrong only cared about His Royal Highness Prince Rui, but Concubine Yuan looked down on her useless status. She was worried that Jiang Wanrong would be sad, so she hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Wanrong naturally understood clearly. She blamed herself for not having a father who held a large military force. Otherwise, how could she be looked down upon so much? Seeing Yuan Peishan's evasive look, Jiang Wanrong could not help but say:

"Mother, replace Jiang Shuyu with me when the time comes. Only then will I have a chance!"

"How can this be possible? If the Imperial Concubine blames us, neither you nor I can bear the consequences!"

Yuan Peishan had an instinctive fear of Concubine Yuan and dared not disobey her orders.

Jiang Wanrong's eyes turned cold, and then she looked at Yuan Peishan and said calmly:

"Right now, this is my only chance to marry Prince Rui. If the news of what happened in Duke Ding's Mansion gets out, I'm afraid that no powerful family would marry me as their legal wife, let alone Prince Rui.

My life will be ruined then. Mother, are you willing to watch me live such a lowly life? I won’t accept it, I won’t accept it.”

When Jiang Wanrong thought about being stepped on by Jiang Shuyu in the future and having to look up to her, her heart felt as if it was burning in flames and she was in great pain!

Seeing Jiang Wanrong's painful appearance, Yuan Peishan couldn't help but hold her in her arms. She always knew that Wanrong had been arrogant since she was a child, determined to become the most noble woman in the world. If she had to rely on others in the future, how could she bear such humiliation?

Yuan Peishan was helpless about this. She couldn't bear to see her suffer so much, so she could only say helplessly: "Mom will help you! Mom will help you!"

Seeing Yuan Peishan compromise, Jiang Wanrong couldn't help but burst into laughter, and then snuggled up to Yuan Peishan intimately, saying in a soft tone:

"I know that my mother has always been the best to me. When I become the mother of the world, I will definitely never forget her kindness!"

A glimmer of hope flashed in Yuan Peishan's eyes. She also wanted to be the boss, but she had no other way out in this life. Now she could only pin her hopes on Jiang Wanrong. As she said, this was their only chance to turn things around.
