Jiang Nian stepped forward and helped Jiang Dechang up. "Father, please don't be sad. It has already happened. You should think about what to do next."

Jiang Dechang stood up from the ground, but his legs were too weak to stand. It was only when the servant beside him came forward to support him that he was able to sit down.

"You are a traitor, you are a traitor!" Jiang Dechang roared.

Old Madam Jiang regained consciousness, stared at the two people going west, and closed her eyes in pain.

"Nian Nian, my daughter!"

There was a wailing sound outside the door. Feng came in supported by her maid. As soon as she entered the room, she saw her daughter lying on the ground, tied up and unattended. She was lying on Jiang Nian and crying.

"Niannian, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you? Hurry up and untie the second girl!"

Hearing this, no one stepped forward.

Aunt Liu said calmly, "Sister, why don't you ask what good deeds the second young lady has done?"

Feng only heard that Prince Jin had come to the mansion and that Jiang Nian and Jiang Mingyuan had been brought back tied up, so she immediately came to mourn.

Seeing that Jiang Dechang and Old Madam Jiang both looked like they had suffered a blow, Feng realized that something was wrong.

"Fa, what happened?"

Jiang Nian ordered Hubo: "Bring Qiuyu up here."

Not long after Amber left, Qiuyu was brought up. She finally felt scared and started shaking even more violently.

"Tell me what happened yesterday. Tell me clearly."

When Qiuyu learned that Jiang Nian had failed, she knew that she would not survive.

Since she couldn't survive, what was the point of her keeping this matter? Besides, her life contract was in the hands of Concubine Liu, so she dared not disobey.

But before he could open his mouth, Jiang Nian yelled like crazy: "Don't say it!"

At this point, there is no point in talking about the deep affection between master and servant. Just take care of each other.

He gritted his teeth and told everything that Jiang Nian had planned, including Feng's involvement.

Old Madam Jiang covered her chest with her hands, she couldn't bear to listen any longer.

"Evil obstacle, evil obstacle!"

If Jiang Nian had really climbed into Prince Jin's bed last night, Old Madam Jiang would definitely not have reacted like this.

"No, impossible, impossible!" Feng couldn't accept it even more. There was nothing she could do. The good daughter she had raised still behaved like a concubine.

Jiang Mingyuan was the only one present the entire time, saying nothing, clenching his fists tightly, with a fishy-sweet taste in his throat.

Jiang Nian immediately knelt down and said, "Grandma, Father, I took my sister with me this time on your orders. I didn't know she had such thoughts. It's my fault. Please punish me, Grandma and Father."

His Royal Highness Prince Jin's attitude just now was very clear. He had no interest in Jiang Nian at all. Instead, it was Jiang Nian who had to be protected by Prince Jin everywhere.

No matter how angry Madam Jiang and Jiang Dechang were, why would they punish her at this time?

"Good boy, get up quickly. How can this be your fault? You mean well, it's all your sister's fault for being restless."

Jiang Nian on the ground was blinded by this scene. She was obviously the girl in the mansion. Before Jiang Nian came back, she was the legitimate girl in the mansion!

It was Jiang Nian. It must have been Jiang Nian who plotted against her.

She plotted to take away her mother's power as head of the household, plotted to get her second brother punished by her father, plotted to get her and her eldest brother, and last night... she was clearly with His Highness...

Jiang Nian turned his head to look at her and smiled triumphantly. Jiang Nian was about to pounce on her as if stimulated, but the maids and old women quickly stopped her.

Madam Jiang couldn't bear to watch and waved her hand: "Send them back to the courtyard first."

Jiang Nian roared, but who wanted to listen to her now?

After the people left, Jiang Nian slowly stood up and said, "Grandma and Dad seem to be in a bad mood. Go back and rest first. Let the doctor take a look. We can deal with the rest later."

After returning to Qingfangyuan, Jiang Nian went to see Lin first. The noise from the front was finally heard over here.

"Niannian, I heard something happened up ahead?"

"Mom, I have good news for you." When the story was told to Lin, she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.

"What did you say?"

"Mom, Jiang Mingyuan and Jiang Nian have no chance of turning things around. As for Jiang Mingsheng, I guess he's even less capable of success. From now on, the rest of us in this family are no longer a threat to us. No one will dare to bully us anymore."

Lin was stunned for a moment, then she held her daughter's hand and patted it lovingly.

Although her daughter didn't let her worry about things outside, she knew that it was not that easy. Her daughter might have encountered many dangers and suffered many grievances outside.

But she couldn't help.

"Have you ever thought about how you will get along in the capital from now on?"

"Mother, I've thought about it. Once everything is settled, we'll leave the capital."

She also wanted to clear her grandfather's name, but the Lin family was charged with treason and collaborating with the enemy. Although she believed that her grandfather would not do such a thing, it was too difficult to overturn the verdict for the Lin family. This was not an easy thing to do.

Fortunately, the Lin family was only exiled to the frontier and pardoned by the emperor. They were not allowed to return to Beijing without being summoned. Otherwise, they were no different from ordinary people.

In fact, the border is also pretty good. If she really can't overturn the case in the end, she will take her mother back to the border to reunite with her grandfather's family and live her life as usual.

"Mom, don't worry. If it doesn't work out, we can go to the border to find grandpa. Haven't you always wanted to see him?"

"Okay, mother, I will listen to you."

Returning to his own yard, Jiang Nian sat down on the couch and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Baozhu was called over and was given some instructions. She hesitated a little but still followed the instructions and went out.

Half a day after Jiang Nian returned home, the scandal between Jiang Mingyuan and his sister spread outside.

Jiang Mingyuan was famous for his talent in the academy. The academy was afraid that its reputation would be damaged, so it expelled him directly.

Jiang Mingsheng sneaked out of the house and went to Wangchun Tower again. As a result, he got into a fight with a young man over a singing girl and his leg was broken.

That was not all. News came from Prince Jin's mansion that the Jiang family was lacking in moral character. Jiang Dechang couldn't even educate his children well, let alone be an official, so he was directly dismissed from his post.

Now he has lost even his fifth-rank position and has become an ordinary citizen.

I heard that he rushed out immediately and beat up the brother and sister and Feng. When he came out, he could not stand.

Old Madam Jiang has been ill since then and has never said what to do with Jiang Nian and Jiang Mingyuan.

The next day, the servant beside Jiang Mingyuan came and said that Jiang Mingyuan wanted to see her.

Jiang Nian went to the courtyard where Jiang Mingyuan lived. The maid and servant led her into the house and then left.

Jiang Mingyuan no longer had the high spirits of the past, and when he saw Jiang Nian come in, he didn't show much emotion.

"Brother, what do you want to see me about?" Jiang Nian sat down slowly.

"Are you very proud?"

Jiang Nian smiled: "I am indeed very happy."

At this point, there is nothing to hide.

"You had no intention of becoming the King of Jin. Everything that happened before was just for Nian Nian to see."

Jiang Nian laughed: "That's right, if I hadn't done that, how could she have come up with such a plan? Jiang Nian is very proud and can't stand me being better than her. She would have used all means to seduce Prince Jin. Who would have thought that instead of seducing Prince Jin, she would seduce Big Brother instead."

"Jiang Nian, Jiang Nian!"

Jiang Mingyuan looked at Jiang Nian fiercely, wishing he could strangle her to death right now.

Jiang Mingyuan's pupils constricted, as if he had seen something terrifying. Jiang Nian stood up and said with a smile, "Jiang Mingyuan, I have one last gift for you. You must wait patiently."
