However, none of the concubines believed it when they heard it, even the concubine who brought up the matter herself did not believe it.

Everyone talked about it for a while and then didn't take it seriously, and soon moved on to other things.

Only Bai Weiwei had deep eyes, with a glint in them that others could not understand.

……

Changle Palace.

At nightfall, Jiang Wantang leaned against the beauty couch, looking at the message sent by Xie Zhiyan, with a frown on her face.

Ever since she last saw Jiang Wanhe traveling alone late at night on the long street and boarding a luxurious carriage, Jiang Wantang asked Xie Zhiyan to send someone to keep an eye on her.

There were two pieces of letter paper. One piece of letter said that Jiang Wanhe had been having an affair with Qi Feng, the dissolute playboy of the Qi family, for some time, and that Jiang Wanhe often went out at night to meet him secretly.

Recently, the playboy from the Qi family has been deliberately avoiding Jiang Wanhe. The more he does this, the more Jiang Wanhe will actively pester him and run out every day to look for him.

Just last night, Chifeng was having fun in a brothel. Jiang Wanhe got the news and ran to the brothel to catch him in the act. When she opened the door, she saw a few dandy young men entangled with a group of stripped prostitutes...

What caught my eye was a huge bed and a dazzling expanse of white. The filthy and chaotic scene was shocking.

At that time, Chifeng was entangled with two or three prostitutes. Jiang Wanhe, furious, rushed over and tore them apart, beating and scolding the women. She also threw a tantrum at Chifeng, questioning...

She looked sobbing, as if she was the legal wife and had come to catch someone cheating.

The other playboys also sat around and watched the joke.

Chifeng also noticed the brothers' mocking gazes, and for a moment, he couldn't hold back his pride. He pulled Jiang Wanhe over and slapped her on the spot: "Cry, cry, cry! All you know is to cry! You haven't even entered my house yet! And you dare to control me?!"

Not only that, he also mercilessly mocked Jiang Wanhe in front of a group of people in the room: "If you didn't have so little flesh on your body and didn't have the right places, making it difficult for me to have fun, would I come out to find other women?"

The several playboys present immediately cast evil eyes on Jiang Wanhe, looking her up and down with obvious ill intentions.

Jiang Wanhe felt humiliated, ashamed and angry, and finally she could only run away with her face covered.

Chifeng didn't care at all, and continued to caress the beauty in his arms, enjoying himself freely and wantonly. Seeing this, the other playboys did the same...

No one cared about Jiang Wanhe's appearance.

As soon as the door closed, noises of varying sizes could be heard from inside...

On a piece of letter paper, there was a brief description of Chifeng's daily behavior. Everything he did was shameless and low-class. He bullied countless men and women and was not much better than Qi Gui from the second house.

Jiang Wantang looked at the letter in front of him, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

In the Great Sheng Dynasty, a woman's reputation and chastity were extremely important.

She didn't expect that Jiang Wanhe, a girl in the boudoir, would be so bold. Not only did she lose her virginity before marriage, but she also got entangled with a bad guy like Qi Feng.

The letter also mentioned at the end that Qin went to Qi's house early this morning and was driven out.

Xie Zhiyan said that Qin was likely to come to the palace to find her, so she should make plans as soon as possible.

Jiang Wantang narrowed her eyes slightly, with a cold look in them. Even if Qin Shi didn't come, she would not stand idly by in this situation.

The Qi family and Ji Wuyuan are now on the verge of a war, and they have a deep grudge against her.

The Qi family must have planned this for a long time. In a few days, the news that the Jiang family's daughter had no sense of shame and had an affair with someone would spread throughout the capital.

Before there was Jiang Wanfu, and now there is Jiang Wanhe. The Jiang family’s reputation will definitely be criticized by people all over Beijing.

The Qi family's move was obviously to use Qi Feng to bully and trample on Jiang Wanhe in order to insult the Jiang family and humiliate her.

Jiang Wantang didn't care about these things, but she had to consider her brother Jiang Huaizhou.

Now her brother had been promoted by Ji Wuyuan as an exception to the post of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. His future was bright and he was at the age to discuss marriage. He must not allow his brother to be stigmatized because of this.

As Jiang Wantang thought this, the coldness in his eyes grew stronger.

At this time, a young eunuch came outside the door to report that the emperor had arrived and was almost at the gate of Changle Palace.

Jiang Wantang quickly stood up, placed the letter in her hand on the candlestick and burned it until it was completely gone, then went to the door to greet the emperor.

At the gate of Changle Palace, Jiang Wantang was about to bow and salute when Ji Wuyuan helped her up and said with a feigned anger, "Didn't I tell you that Tang'er doesn't need to bow when she sees me from now on?"

Jiang Wantang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this is against the rules."

Obviously, such a formal answer was not what Ji Wuyuan wanted.

Ji Wuyuan's eyes darkened, and with a hint of deep meaning in his phoenix eyes, he looked at Jiang Wantang: "Tang'er, the rules I say are the rules."

Jiang Wantang didn't refute. He lowered his head for a while before saying softly, "Okay."

He looks very well-behaved.

But Ji Wuyuan felt a little blocked in his heart, a feeling that he couldn't describe.

He frowned, raised his hand and touched Jiang Wantang's head, and said softly, "Tang'er, have you been worried about something recently?"

Jiang Wantang raised her eyes to look at him, a pair of affectionate peach blossom eyes revealing a faint smile: "No."

She asked with concern, "Your Majesty has been busy so late, have you had dinner yet?"

Ji Wuyuan shook his head, smiled lazily and said, "I want to come over to see Tang'er after I finish my work."

"I'm a little hungry too. Can you please send some food over so I can have some with Your Majesty?"

Ji Wuyuan agreed, then took Jiang Wantang's hand and walked into the hall.

Soon, the palace servants prepared a table full of food.

When Ji Wuyuan and Jiang Wantang had meals together, neither of them liked to have palace servants serving them. He would personally serve the dishes to Jiang Wantang, but Jiang Wantang was only responsible for eating and had no awareness of being a concubine at all.

Ji Wuyuan was also happy to pamper her and spoil her.

But this time, Jiang Wantang was considerate enough to serve him the food personally.

Ji Wuyuan raised his eyebrows, supported his chin with one hand and looked at her, with a smile on his lips.

Jiang Wantang occasionally looked up and met his gaze, smiling softly, "Your Majesty, why are you staring at me?"

"Is there something dirty on my face?"

After saying that, he was about to raise his hand to wipe his face, but Ji Wuyuan held his wrist.

"No." Ji Wuyuan tilted his head and smiled at her lazily, "I just like looking at Tang'er."

“I can’t get enough of it.”

Jiang Wantang looked at him with amusement, and said in a teasing yet coquettish tone, "Then Your Majesty, will you take me with you wherever you go in the future?"

"Yes," Ji Wuyuan said without hesitation, looking very calm: "Wherever I go, I want to take Tang'er with me."

Jiang Wantang thought Ji Wuyuan was just talking casually and smiled indifferently.

But Ji Wuyuan asked her the next moment, "Tang'er, I'm planning to go on an incognito tour in a few days to investigate the flood problem in the Jiangnan area. Would you like to go with me?"
