âXiaoqian is a five-year-old child with no father or mother. Even our servants dare to bully him, let alone the Crown Prince and Princess Consort? Although the Emperor loves him, he canât cover everything. The Empress has a poor health and no energy. The child is in the East Palace all day, and there are plenty of opportunities for foul play.â
âSo, what do you plan to do if the child refuses to speak? You canât keep him in the Princeâs mansion forever,â Jiang Yi asked.
âCanât I?â Jiang Ning smiled. âThereâs always a way.â
âSeventh Sister, I know you like this child, but you need to calm down and think it through. The Prince of Yu is not here, do you want to pick a fight with the East Palace? Regardless of whatever method you use to get the emperorâs eldest grandson out of the palace, it will offend the Crown Prince and Princess Consort.â
âI understand.â Jiang Ning replied calmly. âIf it were you, would you ignore the childâs suffering just because youâre afraid of the East Palace?â
âYou could choose to tell the Emperor and let him handle it.â
âIn Xiaoqianâs silence, would the Emperor trust his Crown Prince or me more?â
Jiang Yi was speechless.
Jiang Ning continued: âEven if I donât interfere, the Crown Prince doesnât necessarily show a friendly face to the Prince of Yuâs mansion. The second day he became the Crown Prince, he immediately forced the Prince of Yu to leave. Do you really believe that once he becomes Emperor, he will treat his brother with respect?â
âMaybe it was the Emperorâs idea.â
âThird Brother, donât be so naive. Why donât you learn something from our wily father instead?â
Jiang Yi knocked her forehead, âYouâre really your fatherâs daughter. Though you didnât grow up in the family, your temperament is exactly the same.â
âBut offending the Crown Prince this way is not a good solution.â
âThird Brother, youâre wrong.â
âWhat?â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs not me who offended the Crown Prince.â
11 pi,
âThe Crown Prince offended me this time.â Jiang Ningâs eyes turned cold, and then she smiled at Jiang Yi, âThird Brother, what happened to those who offended me before?â
Jiang Yi thought for a moment: âThose who offended you⦠First, thereâs Princess Lingâan, who fell into poverty and lost her reputation. Then thereâs Wenren Zong, who got his family confiscated and exiledâ¦â
By this point, Jiang Yiâs expression had turned strange: âAs for the other Prince of Yu, ahem, he lost the Crown Prince position that he had in his grasp, and was sent to guard the Imperial Mausoleum.â
Upon finishing, he looked a bit dumbfounded.
None of those who offended her ended up well?
And it wasnât as if sheâd done much to them!
âSeventh Sister, you should know that Wenren Zong and the Prince of Yu both liked you.â
âTwo different things.â Jiang Ning waved her hand. âItâs difficult to make someone successful, but itâs quite easy to ruin someone.â
Jiang Yi said: âThe Crown Prince is cunning and deep, he outsmarted even the Prince of Yu. Heâs not so easy to deal with. Whatever you want to do, make sure to discuss it with our father and me. After all, youâre not alone, you have the Jiang family.â
âI know. Hehe.â
âWhat do you mean by that laugh?â
âSince youâve said so, big brother, why not let our mother do me a favor when we get back?â
âYouâd better not even think about it.â
âBrother, thatâs not what you just said.â
âI didnât know what you had in mind!â Jiang Yi said with a cold laugh, âYou want your mother to beg the Emperor again, donât you? You ungrateful little wolf, thatâs our own mother! If father finds out, heâll scratch you to death..â
