Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

Jiang Qiao and Rong Sui stared at each other for a while.

Rong Sui didn't know what to say. Her words had blocked all his escape routes, and he didn't want her to hate him.

Jiang Qiao poured him a cup of tea and continued, "Rong Sui, do you really like me? What is your reason for wanting to marry me? We only met once at Manchun Pavilion, is that enough to make you think about me? If that's the case, I don't think it will last even if we are together."

Rong Sui hadn't expected that she would engage in so many debates in order to persuade him.

But how can it be said that she only met him once at Manchunlou?

"Princess Chang Le, whether you believe it or not, I just love you."

“If you don’t believe me, Your Highness, please return!” Jiang Qiao said decisively.

Rong Sui felt like he'd punched cotton. Fine, he'd already gotten what he wanted to know today, and continuing the conversation would only make him more and more frustrated.

"Jiang Qiao, let's meet another day."

As Jiang Qiao watched the man's departing figure, her face instantly turned ashen.

She started feeling dizzy while talking to Rong Sui, and she really wanted to get angry, but she couldn't.

She was the eldest princess of Anhuai Kingdom, and she couldn't show any fear before Jiang Ji fell.

Outside the princess mansion.

Li Dequan had come to the princess's residence today on imperial orders to request calming incense. Just as he arrived at the entrance of the princess's residence, he encountered the Crown Prince of Ningyuan Kingdom coming out with a cold expression. He bowed slightly to the other party.

Rong Sui paused for a moment when he saw the person who had arrived. He didn't say anything, but quickly got into the carriage.

Li Dequan led Xiao Fuzi inside.

Jiang Qiao was about to go back to bed when Yunyan informed her that Eunuch Li from the palace had arrived, so she had to go back to sit down.

She could guess why Eunuch Li had come this time; judging by the days, the calming incense had already run out.

She made two kinds of calming incense. One was poisonous and caused dizziness, which Jiang Qiao gave to Jiang Ji. The other was genuinely effective in calming the nerves and aiding sleep, which Jiang Qiao gave to the Empress Dowager and herself.

"This old servant greets Your Highness the Princess and pays respects to you." Li Dequan knelt down and bowed.

Jiang Qiao clasped her fingers together, adopting a dignified posture. "Please rise, Father-in-law. What brings you to my remote princess residence today?"

Li Dequan could easily hear the resentment in her heart. Indeed, in the past, no princess had ever been driven out like this!

"Your Highness is too kind. His Majesty misses you very much, which is why he sent me to visit you today."

As she spoke, she had Xiao Fuzi present what she was carrying: some gold and silver jewelry and bird's nest nutritional supplements.

Jiang Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly. Jiang Ji was really stingy; the gift she gave was less than half of what Rong Sui had given her.

Li Dequan also noticed this, because he saw that the table was already piled high. He guessed that it was a gift from the Crown Prince of Ningyuan Kingdom. How could the two of them be so familiar with each other?

Is it possible...

Li Dequan dared not think too deeply about it and revealed the main purpose of his visit today: "Does the incense that the princess gave to the emperor last time still exist? Its calming effect is truly effective."

Jiang Qiao remained calm and spoke gently, "There are still some left over from what I made with my master last time. If you want them, Father-in-law, I'll have Yunyan fetch them."

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Yunyan."

……

Li Dequan left with the incense.

Jiang Qiao lowered her eyes. "Yu Xing, bring the medicine over!"

Gu Yun's medicine was somewhat effective; after drinking it, her heart would calm down.

"Take some things to the carefree doctor when you have time; his medicine is very effective."

"Yes."

-

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Li Dequan lit some calming incense, and Jiang Ji's headache was finally somewhat relieved.

Li Dequan told Jiang Ji about his encounter with the Crown Prince of Ningyuan Kingdom at the Princess's residence that day.

Jiang Ji's tone was already somewhat unfriendly, "What are those two doing meeting?"

"This servant does not know, but this servant noticed that the Crown Prince did not seem very happy when he left the Princess's residence."

Jiang Ji didn't say anything more. He didn't want Chi Qi'an to marry Chang Le. He still had a use for the Chi family, so he couldn't touch them.

In that case, why not...

Jiang Ji pondered for a moment, then sighed, "The Crown Prince of Ningyuan likes Chang Le, so I cannot disappoint Ningyuan. The Crown Prince and the Princess are a good match."

Li Dequan was unaware that General Jinghong had already proposed this marriage. If he had known, he certainly wouldn't have said anything tonight.

……

Xiao Fuzi ran in and said, "Your Majesty, Consort Li has arrived with the Second Prince."

Jiang Ji's mood improved somewhat. "Let them in!"

The Emperor had already promoted Consort Li to a higher rank. Now that she had a second prince, the Empress had fallen from power, the eldest prince was mentally challenged, and the eldest princess had left the palace, she was living a very prestigious life in the palace.

"Your Majesty, Jincheng has been crying a lot lately. He feels wronged because you don't come to see him," Consort Li said with a playful smile.

At Jiang Ji's age, he prefers children. He took the baby from the swaddling clothes, held him in his arms, and his expression was gentle.

"Cackle, cluck, cluck~"

The baby in the swaddling clothes laughed a few times at the right moment.

Jiang Ji was even happier.

"Jincheng is my only prince, and he will inherit great responsibilities in the future. I think he is intelligent."

Upon hearing this, Consort Li's expression froze for a moment, but she quickly smiled again, pretending to have forgotten about the First Prince.

"Why is Your Majesty saying these things? Jincheng is still young, how would it know about any great responsibilities?"

Jiang Ji was only forty years old, and although Consort Li was ambitious, she did not dare to actually agree to his words.

……

Rong Sui resided in Changqiu Palace.

Tonight, however, an unwelcome person has arrived.

"Why did Your Majesty go to the Princess's residence today? Could it be that you've really taken a fancy to that woman?"

Rong Zhengxuan did indeed come uninvited.

Now that Rong Sui has returned to Ningyuan Kingdom as Crown Prince, he knows that in the twenty years he missed, he is inferior to his two younger brothers in many ways. Therefore, he has been studying diligently since returning to Ningyuan Kingdom, and his father, the Emperor, likes him very much. Rong Sui is very intelligent; he only wants to consolidate his power and crush all those who once humiliated him under his feet.

He has already achieved this; all those who oppressed him at Manchunlou are no longer here.

Rong Sui knew that Rong Zhengxuan would definitely sabotage their departure from Ningyuan Kingdom, because his father had clearly stated that he was the true heir.

"Second Prince, you followed very well."

Rong Zhengxuan treated this place as his own home and wandered around casually. “Your Majesty flatters me. I really didn’t expect that Your Majesty has been working diligently since you returned and has not made a single mistake. But this time when you came to Anhuai Kingdom, Your Majesty’s taste in women was really poor. No wonder you are a person who has been to… and only cares about appearance.”

Rong Sui lifted her eyelashes to meet his gaze. "Second brother, you really have no restraint when you speak. Tell me, is it me who can't return to Ningyuan Kingdom this time, or you?"

It was full of threatening intent.

Rong Zhengxuan was also somewhat surprised and remained silent for a long time.

Rong Sui didn't lie to him. This time, he only wanted to fight for himself. Rong Zhengxuan had to die, and leaving Ningyuan Kingdom this time was a good opportunity.

He will find an opportunity to kill Rong Zhengxuan.

Now that Father has found him, he must have made up his mind. Even if Father suspects that he killed Rong Zhengxuan, he will not say anything.

Father Emperor will only regret handing over Ningyuan Kingdom to a ruthless person like Rong Zhengxuan.

The conversation between the two ended unhappily.
