The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands
Chapter 71 His Highness Invites You
regret!
Of course I regret it!
As soon as Jiang Yuanzhou said this, Jiang Wumei wanted to shout out loud for the original owner.
Unfortunately, Jiang Wumei didn’t know Jiang Yuanzhou’s true thoughts for the time being. She could only shed tears silently, carefully looking at his expression, without saying a word.
Jiang Yuanzhou noticed the cautious look on her face, but thought Jiang Wumei was afraid that he would scold her, so he said helplessly:
"Don't be sad, brother won't blame you.
Niaoniao, if you are really unhappy in the Prince’s Mansion, your brother will take you back home.
Your parents have always been concerned about you, and they will be very happy if you go back."
Jiang Wumei didn't expect that at this point, the Jiang family was still willing to accept the original owner again, and judging from Jiang Yuanzhou's expression, even if the original owner married the prince, he would support the original owner's divorce.
In Jiang Yuanzhou's heart, nothing is more important than his sister.
Jiang Wumei was in a complicated mood. She didn't want to deceive this brother who was really doing good for the original owner anymore. She wiped away her tears and shook her head.
“Brother, I’m not going home.
I really like His Highness, and I want to stay with him forever."
Jiang Yuanzhou sighed, knowing very well his sister's desire for power. Now that Niao Niao was unwilling to leave the Prince's Mansion, she was probably still thinking about the position of Queen.
However, based on his understanding of the prince, the position of queen would never be his sister's, so why should Niao Niao be trapped in the prince's mansion and waste her life?
However, Jiang Yuanzhou would not tell Jiang Wumei these words. He knew that if he told them now, it would only increase the distance between the siblings.
Rather than letting my sister hate me, it is better to develop well in the Ministry of Households and become the most reliable support for my sister and the Jiang family.
"You have been arrogant since you were young. When you were at home, you had your parents to protect you. Now that you are in the Crown Prince's Mansion and have become his concubine, you must not be as careless as before.
I will try to stay in Beijing when I return to report on my work this time. If you have any difficulties, you can send someone to find me in the alleys in the east of the city."
Jiang Wumei was very moved. She looked outside and whispered:
“Brother, the Chun family may be on the verge of collapse, and the transfer of officials from the Ministry of Revenue will usher in huge changes.
Even if you are in the Ministry of Revenue, you can make plans for yourself as soon as possible."
Jiang Yuanzhou is one of the few people who treats the original owner sincerely, so Jiang Wumei will help him if she can.
She believed that with Jiang Yuanzhou's talent, if Xiao Tong lifted his suppression, he would soon be able to stand out in the Ministry of Revenue, and then Jiang's father would be able to get his help and return to Kyoto.
If the Jiang family can live a good life, it can be considered that Jiang Wumei has fulfilled her last bit of filial piety to the original owner.
"Pure family?"
Jiang Yuanzhou's expression changed slightly, and he looked at his haggard sister:
"The Chun family is highly valued by the Crown Prince, how could it be..."
Jiang Yuanzhou was in the Ministry of Revenue, and he had already realized from some clues that the position of Minister of Revenue of the Chun family came from the prince.
If the Chun family falls, wouldn't it mean that the prince's power is being squeezed out?
During the time he was away from the capital, the Second Prince's power grew so rampant that he was even able to bring down the Minister of Revenue?
As soon as Jiang Wumei saw Jiang Yuanzhou, she knew he had misunderstood and quickly reminded him:
"Brother, the defeat of the Chun family has nothing to do with anyone else, it's His Highness."
Jiang Wumei would not say anything unnecessary, and she would not mention the changes in Xiao Tong's temperament.
This was just the first time she met Jiang Yuanzhou, and Jiang Wumei had done her best to say so much. As for the rest, let Jiang Yuanzhou figure it out on his own.
Jiang Yuanzhou was not a fool. After hearing this, he was silent for a moment and nodded slightly:
“I understand.
You must not tell anyone else about the Chun family's affairs, lest it get to His Highness' ears and cause him unhappiness."
Jiang Wumei knew it even without Jiang Yuanzhou saying it, so she nodded in agreement and asked about the original owner's parents' recent situation.
"Brother, how are Mom and Dad doing this year?"
Seeing his sister asking about his parents, Jiang Yuanzhou's face became even more gentle, and he nodded with a smile:
"Mom and Dad are both fine, but they miss you all the time.
When I have established myself in the Ministry of Revenue, I will find a position in Beijing for my father and bring the two elders here. You can also go home and visit them."
Jiang Wumei kept smiling, but felt a little bitter in her heart. Neither the original owner nor she would probably be able to see Jiang's parents again.
There are differences between men and women, and even brothers and sisters cannot stay under the same roof for long.
Jiang Yuanzhou took Jiang Wumei's identity into consideration, asked about her injuries, gave her some instructions, and then stood up to say goodbye.
Facing the second person in this world who treats her sincerely, Jiang Wumei feels a little reluctant to let go.
But he was worried that Xiao Tong, who was going to the palace to meet the emperor, would return home early, so he had to let Jiang Yuanzhou leave first.
Xiao Tong never liked the Jiang family, but now he has completely changed his attitude. Jiang Wumei was afraid that Jiang Yuanzhou would suffer if he met Xiao Tong, so she had to send him out of the house.
Stepping out of the warm room, the wind was freezing outside.
Jiang Wumei's high fever had just subsided and she still had injuries on her body. Jiang Yuanzhou was worried about her health, so he asked her to stop here.
Jiang Wumei held the heater in her intact hand, standing in the cold wind, like a frost-bitten fragrant flower, with a faint air of illness all over her body. She looked at Jiang Yuanzhou who was so close to her and spoke softly:
"Brother, I'm grown up now and have learned to avoid danger and seek good fortune. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself.
Next time you see my parents, please ask my brother to apologize for me. I am an unfilial daughter and have caused them to worry. I hope they take care of themselves."
Looking at his sister's clear and determined eyes, Jiang Yuanzhou nodded with satisfaction, and stroked her head as if they were children, with a doting look on his face:
"Okay, I'll bring it to you.
If you encounter any difficulties in the Prince's Mansion, I will definitely send someone to look for my brother."
Jiang Wumei nodded with tears in her eyes, stood in front of the warm room, and watched Jiang Yuanzhou walk farther and farther away until he could no longer be seen.
"Madam, why don't you let the young master stay for lunch before leaving?
The eldest young master is your closest relative, and even if His Highness comes back, he won't blame you."
Qingzhi supported Jiang Wumei and walked slowly towards the bedroom, full of confusion.
The warmth in Jiang Wumei's eyes faded, leaving only coldness:
"My brother has just returned to the capital to report on his work. It is better not to delay him. When I recover, I will invite him into the palace to explain in detail."
Jiang Yuanzhou left the warm room and was stopped by a secret guard not far away.
"Master Jiang, His Highness invites you."
In the study of the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Tong, who had just returned home, was sitting behind the table, looking through the list of officials sent by Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi had a black knife on his waist and stood behind Xiao Tong with a wooden face. When he heard footsteps, he suddenly looked up and stared at the door.
Jiang Yuanzhou followed the secret guard into the study and saw a tall man in a black gilded dragon-patterned robe behind the desk. He bowed and saluted.
"Wei Chen has met His Highness the Crown Prince."
“No need to be polite, Yuanzhou.
Niaoniao is my wife, so if we talk about seniority, I should call you brother."
Xiao Tong was a man of action. Having decided to compensate Jiang Wumei, he decided to start with the Jiang family members who had been expelled from the capital by him.
When he saw Jiang Yuanzhou, the gloom on his face gradually faded, and he said a few polite words in a rare gentle manner.
Jiang Yuanzhou was very surprised. He had met Xiao Tong many times, but every time Xiao Tong met him, he had a cold face and was rude. It was the first time that he was so friendly today.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but there is a difference between the ruler and the subject, and Yuanzhou dare not be overbearing."
Jiang Yuanzhou lowered his head and behaved respectfully, and did not get carried away by Xiao Tong's polite words.
He still remembers that his father's assignment and his own departure from Beijing were all caused by the crown prince in front of him.
