Translator: 549690339
Li Yuanyuan said, “Because I want to see the Prince, but the one the Prince wants to see is the Princess Consort.”
“What did you say?”
“The Prince has been locked up in the Court of Judicial Review for two months and sixteen days, the Princess Consort has been recuperating from her injuries, there’s nothing else that could be done. Now that your injury is a little better, please go see the Prince.”
Jiang Ning asked, “Are you ordering me around?”
“No, I’m begging the Princess Consort. I sincerely ask you to go see the Prince. Please.” Li Yuanyuan said softly, “After all, the Prince was injured and confined to the Court of Judicial Review because of you.”
“He was locked up because of me, I admit that. But As for being injured, that was the Crown Prince’s ambush, right? What does it have to do with me?”
“The Prince had already expected assassinations on the way. But… when he was almost in Chang’an City, he heard that an accident had happened to you. Without thoroughly investigating the assassins’ whereabouts, he rushed past a hill and encountered the assassination. Under the desperate protection of his personal guards, he managed to escape. His injuries were severe.”
Li Yuanyuan’s eyes reddened, “The Prince truly cares about the Princess Consort.”
Jiang Ning didn’t speak.
Li Yuanyuan continued, “Although I have always been living with the Prince at the Imperial Mausoleum, his heart has never been there for a moment. He’s always thinking about coming back, always thinking about… the Princess Consort.”
“Really?”
Seeing that Jiang Ning’s reaction was a bit indifferent, Li Yuanyuan couldn’t help but feel anxious, “Your Highness, don’t you believe me? Like you, I’m a woman, witnessing the man I love suffering for love and locked up in jail. I…I’m just too distressed. If it weren’t for the Prince’s sake, I would never have asked you to go.”
She knelt down and kowtowed to Jiang Ning again, “What can I do to make you go? Whatever you want me to do, I promise.”
Jiang Ning looked at her for a moment and said, “I haven’t thought of anything yet, just remember for now.”
“Has the Princess Consort agreed?” Li Yuanyuan was overjoyed.
“When do we go?”
“If it’s convenient for the Princess Consort, can we go now?”
“Not in a hurry, just wait a little while. Chunlai, go make a cup of tea, invite Li Teng to sit and rest for a while.”
Jiang Ning wheeled away.
Li Yuanyuan didn’t think much about it.
She thought she was going to change clothes and freshen up.
After all, a woman would always want to tidy up a bit before meeting her man.
She didn’t expect that about a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Ning came back, still wearing that light blue spring dress, her messy long hair casually held up with a single golden hairpin.
It looked very simple and comfortable.
Her whole outfit was quite simple, except for the pair of exquisite embroidered shoes on her feet, which were very exquisite and luxurious.
It seemed like she didn’t care about anything else, but she particularly liked all kinds of exquisite and gorgeous shoes.
Just as Li Yuanyuan was thinking about it, she heard Jiang Ning say, “I’m ready, let’s go.”
She was a little puzzled as to why Jiang Ning had been away for so long without changing anything?
However, she soon found out.
At the side, a maidservant carried a large food box.
It turned out she had gone to prepare some food.
Although Li Yuanyuan could also make some snacks, she would never think of wasting time preparing food in this situation.
Huang Ying pushed Jiang Ning’s wheelchair, Dongxie carried the food box, and the two accompanied Jiang Ning as they set out. Before leaving, Jiang Ning asked someone to inform Lin Zizi.
Lin Zizi on her side merely said that she should go there early and come back early, without saying much else.
When the carriage was ready outdoors, the driver was no longer Jiang Fu, but a thin young man in a black robe.
He had black hair, black eyes, and all his clothes and shoes were black.
Only a delicate, pale face stood out.
It was Gucheng..
