On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent

Jiang Dexuan didn't understand why Jiang Nian agreed to this marriage. The Zhao family obviously had bad intentions.

"Uncle, if we don't agree, the Zhao family will keep pestering us. If we don't let the Zhao family in, they will find other reasons to cause trouble for the Jiang family."

Jiang Dexuan sensed something was wrong. Looking for trouble? Who?

"Second Uncle, when the Jiang family was in trouble, the Zhao family came to cancel the engagement, but then decided not to do so. Is that true?"

"That's right, but we couldn't find the engagement letter from the Zhao family girl at that time, so the marriage couldn't be cancelled. After a while, the Zhao family came again and said they wouldn't cancel the marriage."

Jiang Nian continued, "The Zhao family is a merchant family. Merchants value profit and will not do anything without profit. The Jiang family now has no benefit in marrying into the family. Why did they suddenly decide not to cancel the engagement?"

How could Jiang Dexuan not understand? Since merchants value profit, it means that marrying into the Jiang family will be beneficial to them.

But what good would that do to the Zhao family? Unless... there was someone behind the Zhao family plotting!

"Niannian, our Jiang family is already in this state, who would still want to plot against us? Could it be that they are targeting you?"

"I'm just a concubine of Prince Yan's Mansion. Even if they come for me, they will go to Prince Yan's Mansion. Why come to the Jiang family?"

The Yan family didn't come for her, but for Jiang Dechang.

Jiang Dechang played a crucial role in the Lin family's affairs back then, but now Jiang Dechang was locked up at home by her, and there were people left by Prince Yan guarding outside, so he couldn't find out what was going on in the mansion, so she came up with this idea.

It seems that the Yan family played an important role in what happened back then.

Jiang Dechang, this idiot, framed the Lin family, thinking he could rise to the top, but he didn't know that people outside had already been eyeing him and might want to kill him to silence him.

"Second Uncle, you must take good care of my father at home. The people who take care of him must be our own people. Don't let him leave the house."

"Don't worry, I will keep a close eye on him and won't let him appear in front of outsiders."

"That's fine, the main thing is to protect people and prevent them from dying."

The Yan family wants to control Jiang Dechang so much, so it seems that Jiang Dechang has something that Lord Yan wants. But what is this thing? She has never heard of it in her previous life.

Ever since Lord Yan became the Minister of Personnel, the two families have had little contact. If the Yan family really knew that Jiang Dechang had something on them, why didn't they come before?

In other words, Lord Yan didn't know that Jiang Dechang had something on him before, but now that he knows, he wants to get close to Jiang Dechang, preferably to take Jiang Dechang out of the house and find the hidden things.

But how did the Yan family know?

Jiang Nian suddenly remembered the maid who helped Jiang Nian escape, and asked Jiang Dexuan: "Second Uncle, are the maids and servants in the house reliable?"

Jiang Dexuan knew what she was asking. The last time, there was a person with bad intentions among the maids serving Jiang Nian, so he had to be on guard.

"Don't worry, I already settled the matter the last time something happened, so there's no problem for now."

Jiang Nian pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is the maid who helped Jiang Nian escape last time still here?"

"Yes, you asked us to lock him up first, so we didn't move."

Jiang Nian said in a deep voice: "Bring her here, I want to see her."

The maid was brought up quickly. Jiang Dexuan and Zhang were both good people. They had been interrogated before, but in the end they did not suffer any punishment.

Now she was standing in front of her, neatly dressed, except for her hair, everything else was no different from usual.

Jiang Dexuan and Zhang were indeed soft-hearted and treated such a vicious slave so kindly.

The man knelt down in front of Jiang Nian as soon as he entered and said, "Greetings, Miss."

The maid Jiang Nian had no impression of this, so she asked, "When did you come to serve in the mansion?"

"It's been two years, Miss."

Jiang Nian sneered: "Two years? Judging from your courage, it must have been at least ten years."

The maid didn't say anything, so Jiang Nian asked again, "Tell me, why did you let Jiang Nian go? Is it because the Jiang family wasn't good enough to you?"

The maid lowered her head, and Jiang Nian couldn't see her expression. He only heard a nervous voice: "This servant... This servant just felt sorry for the Second Young Lady, and then, then, then I made a serious mistake. Please punish me, Young Lady."

Jiang Nian closed his eyes slightly, looking at the person who couldn't help trembling below, and said in a light tone: "Is that so? Since you feel pity for her, then I will fulfill your sympathy. Since she is no longer at home, then you will take her place. What she endures every day, you will have to endure it for me in the future. What do you think?"

The maid trembled visibly, but did not beg for mercy.

He has quite a bit of backbone, but when did the Jiang family have such a person?

I heard that this maid used to serve in Old Madam Jiang's courtyard, and later was asked to stay with Feng, and often went in and out of Jiang Dechang's courtyard.

It can't be said that he was highly valued, but after Feng and Jiang Dechang were locked up, he took the initiative to serve them.

At that time, Aunt Liu thought that this maid was sensible, but she didn't expect that she had ulterior motives.

Aunt Liu first asked her to serve Old Madam Jiang, but Jiang Mingyuan and Jiang Nian were short of people, so she asked her to serve Jiang Nian. However, something went wrong during this service.

Jiang Nian ran away.

If she said she had no purpose at all, no one would believe it.

Aunt Liu came in holding a box, "Miss, this is the indenture for the people in the mansion that you asked me to find. Take a look."

Aunt Liu found the indenture of the maid named Xiao Cui, and then found another one. She compared them and said something in Aunt Liu's ear. Liu then stepped forward and gently lifted the back of the maid's collar. After taking a look, she nodded slightly.

Jiang Nian put away the indenture and said meaningfully, "Xiao Cui, if you tell the truth, perhaps I can still forgive you, but if you don't know what's good for you, then I can only do my best."

Xiao Cui kowtowed: "Miss, I really only let the second young lady go because I felt sorry for her and she was about to die. I know I have caused trouble and cannot defend myself, so I will die to apologize."

After saying that, he suddenly hit the pillar beside him.

Ping An dodged and quickly stopped the man, tied his hands and feet, and pinched his mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue.

"It seems that you don't want to talk nicely. In that case, take her away. Send her to Jiang Nian's room and let her suffer for Jiang Nian. When you think it through, come see me again."

"Yes."

Ping An responded and took Xiao Cui away. Xiao Cui finally realized that she was afraid and kept begging for mercy, but if she couldn't say what she wanted, she would have no peace of mind.

Isn't that kindhearted? Then help him to the end, send the Buddha to the west, replace Jiang Nian's position, and taste the bitterness of it.

"Miss, we already asked last time, and the maid didn't know where the second young lady was."

Jiang Nian smiled and said, "Auntie, if it's just for Jiang Nian, why make such a big fuss? Look at these two indentures."
