Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 112 The King’s Doctor

King Huai soon appeared in the main hall.

Also brought up was Hong Chang, who was already tied up.

After King Huai sat down, he sighed in a pretentious manner.

"I originally wanted to invite Miss Jiang to come to the mansion for treatment today, but I didn't expect something like this to happen..."

"I don't want to embarrass Miss Jiang, but this imperial gift is of great importance. If I don't hand someone over, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty."

"Your life... is definitely not safe. After all, she is from your Jiang family. Miss Jiang and the Jiang family will inevitably be implicated..."

Hong Chang knelt on the ground, her body straight as she looked at her young lady.

"Miss, I didn't touch the jade ruyi. It fell down suddenly by itself for some reason. It has nothing to do with me."

Hearing Hong Chang say this, the servant from Prince Huai's Mansion who came with her immediately refuted.

"Nonsense! That jade ruyi has been placed there for years without any problems. How could it fall down for no reason?"

"You were the only one in there at the time. If it wasn't you, who else could have done it?"

Hong Chang bit her lip when she heard this, feeling that she had no way to defend herself.

Before she came today, the young lady reminded her that she might encounter some troubles when she came to Prince Huai's Mansion today, and asked her to be careful.

So when the servant of Prince Huai's mansion said that they would take her to collect some medical fees, she felt that something was fishy.

But she couldn't find any reason to refuse, so she had to go with them, and her words and actions were more cautious than usual.

But even if she did nothing, this disaster still struck.

She didn't know why the jade ruyi fell from the collection shelf.

But at this moment she also understood that this was obviously a trap set by Prince Huai's Mansion long ago, and no matter how she explained it, it was useless.

He then fell silent and stopped arguing with the servants in Prince Huai's mansion.

King Huai's voice continued to sound at this time.

"Miss Jiang is a young woman after all, and this matter is of great importance. If you can't make up your mind, why don't I have someone invite your father and mother over so we can discuss it... Is there any other solution?"

Song Wan gave Hong Shang a reassuring look before looking at King Huai.

"Your Highness, there's no need to beat around the bush with this humble girl. The damage to this imperial gift is a catastrophic disaster for the Jiang family, but for Your Highness, it won't take much to cover it up."

"I will not argue with Your Highness whether or not my maidservant was responsible for the damage. Your Highness, why don't you just tell me directly what the conditions are for making this matter less serious?"

King Huai was somewhat surprised that the woman would speak so bluntly.

He scraped the rim of the cup lightly, took a sip of tea and then spoke.

"Miss Jiang, since you have guessed my intention, why bother asking even though you already know the answer?"

"Your Jiang family has no kinship with Song Yi. You can gain greater benefits by abandoning cooperation with Song Yi and joining me. Why take such a detour?"

Seeing that King Huai was no longer pretending, Song Wan suddenly chuckled.

"As long as the road leads in the right direction, it doesn't matter if it's a little winding."

"Besides, if Prince Huai acts this way today, we, the Jiang family, may not even be able to enjoy the greater benefits you mentioned in the future!"

Seeing that Song Wan had no intention of giving in and spoke without any scruples, King Huai's expression changed slightly.

There was also a faint sense of oppression coming from my body.

"So, Miss Jiang wants to refuse the toast and drink the wine for punishment?"

Song Wan met King Huai's gaze without fear.

"Folk girls don't dare."

"It's just that Prince Huai keeps saying that he and the Prime Minister's Mansion are related by marriage, but you knew that this matter concerns the safety of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but not only did you not help, you even sabotaged it behind the scenes."

"You are so ruthless to the Prime Minister's Mansion, let alone us, a mere Jiang family?"

"I am just discussing the matter at hand."

King Huai looked at the woman in front of him and saw that although she said she didn't dare, there was a hint of provocation in her eyes. He couldn't help but frown.

The way he looked at her, she seemed to be quite confident.

Was it because she was too young and fearless, and had been fooled by Song Yi's sweet talk and didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, or was it something else...

But the game had been set, and since she was so determined, he didn't want to waste time on her.

"Miss Jiang is still young and cannot understand the affairs of the court. I will not argue with you."

"However, your opinion may not necessarily represent the Jiang family. Butler Rong, please go to the Jiang family on my behalf and invite Mr. and Mrs. Jiang over."

Butler Rong immediately responded with a "yes" and left.

The main hall suddenly became quiet, but the silence did not last for a few breaths, and the palace steward who had just left suddenly retreated back into the main hall.

His eyes were still looking forward with some panic.

Song Wan looked up and saw a team of black-armored guards wearing iron armor and holding sharp blades. They marched straight in with expressionless faces and forced back the guards of Prince Huai's mansion.

The person in the middle of the black-armored guards had a ghost mask on his face, a tall and straight figure, and his clothes moved without wind.

King Huai looked at Jun Jiuchen who walked in, his eyes moving slightly.

"Why is the Regent here?"

Jun Jiuchen glanced across the hall, and after confirming that the man was safe, he returned his gaze to King Huai.

"I originally asked Miss Jiang to come to see me in the afternoon today, but Miss Jiang didn't show up for a long time after noon."

"Only after asking did I find out that it was King Huai who sent a letter inviting my doctor to his residence, and he has not let him go for a long time."

"I couldn't help but come over to see what was going on..."

"But as far as I know, Prince Huai's injuries are minor. Could it be that Doctor Jiang discovered he has contracted a serious illness and is dying, and that's why Prince Huai has detained Miss Jiang in his mansion?"

When King Huai heard Jun Jiuchen's tone, he knew that he was here to cause trouble, so he didn't bother to play the role of a wise king.

Over the past few days, the situation in the court has become clear. He and Jun Jiuchen represent the new and old factions.

Naturally, those pretentious scenes were also omitted.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Jun Jiuchen.

"Just to find a doctor, the Regent brought the Black Armored Guards and so brazenly broke into Prince Huai's mansion."

"Doesn't the Regent think it's inappropriate to act this way?"

Jun Jiuchen just curled his lips, strode to the front of King Huai, and stared at him steadily with his deep eyes.

The leisurely way.

"Prince Huai's residence is a den of dragons and tigers... Even two princes were buried here..."

"If I don't bring some people with me to give me courage, I won't dare to enter."
