Jiang Ning leaned out halfway, propped her chin, and smiled, “Such a clean street, it’s so beautiful.”
Jiang Yi laughed and scolded, “Look at you, taking advantage and acting cute.”
Jiang Ning glanced at him, “This afternoon, the teahouse.”
Jiang Yi’s smile froze instantly.
Oh hell.
No wonder this girl warned him to hide his little tail properly. Now her little hand held his little tail tightly.
Who told him to have a crush on Zhang Mujin and want to marry her as his wife?
But there was the obstacle of strict separation between men and women.
Since their last meeting in the East Palace, Jiang Ning and Zhang Mujin became good friends. The two got along well and even agreed to hang out together.
What does it feel like to have the girl you like become your sister’s best friend?
The feeling is that you can no longer dare to offend your sister, fearing that she might blab in front of your beloved and ruin everything.
That afternoon, Jiang Ning went to the teahouse as promised, drinking tea and listening to the opera with Zhang Mujin.
Of course, it was Third Brother who paid for it.
And she didn’t disappoint. In front of Zhang Mujin, she praised Third Brother heartily.
Zhang Mujin smiled with her lips pursed, knowing exactly what was going on.
Though they hadn’t known each other for long, Zhang Mujin could tell that Princess Consort of Yu was mischievous. Suddenly saying so many good things about Jiang Yi must have a reason behind it.
Zhang Mujin was a typical gentle, generous, considerate, and reserved young lady from a reputable family.
Just the type Jiang Ning liked.
The two enjoyed each other’s company.
When she came back, both Lin Zizi and Jiang Yi gathered around her, asking what Zhang Mujin thought of Jiang Yi.
Jiang Ning enjoyed her brother’s shoulder massage and laughed, “When Sister Zhang heard me praising Third Brother, her face turned red. So cute.”
Jiang Yi couldn’t help but blush as well.
Lin Zizi laughed, “It seems that this matter is settled. In a couple of days, I will personally choose an auspicious day to visit the Zhang Family and discuss the wedding date. We are the groom’s side, so we should take the initiative.”
“Mother, you should prepare well. I have to go back and pack up.”
“Pack up what?”
“Returning to the Prince of Yu’s Mansion.”
“You just came back two days ago, are you leaving so soon?” Lin Zizi couldn’t bear to see her daughter go, “Anyway, the Prince of Yu is not in the mansion, so it would be fine for you to live here longer.”
Jiang Ning laughed, “I’m afraid the Emperor wouldn’t allow it. Just because the Prince of Yu isn’t there, I should go back even more. Otherwise, the mansion would be deserted.”
After all, she was a married woman, and it wouldn’t be appropriate to stay in her maiden home for an extended period. It would lead to gossip.
As the Princess Consort of Yu now, she had two children as the Crown Prince and Princess. She could stay for a few days, but if she stayed for an extended time, it would create problems with the Imperial Censors and even the Emperor.
To avoid trouble, she should move back.
This time she went out purely to deal with Li Jixian. With Li Jixian now being grounded for half a year and unable to harass her, she could confidently return home.
On her third day back at the Yu Mansion, a concubine from the Prince of Wei’s Mansion suddenly miscarried a formed male fetus.
Prince Wei was so furious that he almost passed out.
This was the son he had longed for!
Not long after, a military governor from Xiangnan was caught embezzling and accepting bribes, heavily implicated in the case.
Coincidentally, this governor was part of the Crown Prince’s faction.
Taking down the military governor was equivalent to cutting off another finger of the Crown Prince.
Jiang Ning shook her head and sighed, “Just look at the intensity with which these two brothers fight, it’s a matter of life and death. Who says the Prince of Wei is stupid? How many children born in the royal family are genuinely dumb?”
Jiang Yi looked at her, “As the instigator, how do you feel now?”
“What I’m thinking right now is…. Let’s get the fight started! The more intense, the better!”
