Qiu Mingcheng specially returned home to tell Jiang that Shen You was assassinated and injured.
Under the candlelight, Qiu Mingcheng looked worried and sighed repeatedly: "Who would have thought that someone would be so bold as to assassinate His Highness King Yan."
The uncertain brightness of the candlelight reflected on Jiang's face. That beautiful and charming face seemed to be covered with a cloud, and his voice trembled slightly: "Is His Royal Highness Prince Yan injured?"
Qiu Mingcheng only thought that Jiang was worried about Shen You, and without thinking too much, he quickly replied: "That's not true. There are many personal guards around His Highness, and Shiro blocked a sword for His Highness in a critical moment. Your Highness is safe. It's a pity that Shiro He was seriously injured."
As a mother-in-law, Jiang was not very sad when she heard that her son was injured: "As a royal guard, you should die in the service of your master."
Back then, Shen Rong died like this, leaving her a widow.
Shen You is worthy of being Shen Rong's biological son. Today, he almost lost his life for King Yan.
She was not sad, only angry at her ill-fated fate.
Qiu Mingcheng glanced at Jiang, his mood was a bit complicated, and after a while he said: "Silang is injured. As my mother, you should send someone to take a look."
"No need." Jiang said quickly: "He was injured for King Yan, and King Yan will send someone to take care of him."
Qiu Mingcheng frowned: "These are two different things. How can we ignore Shiro's injury and ignore it?"
Jiang lowered his eyes and said softly: "Okay, I will send someone to Pingjiang Mansion tomorrow."
Qiu Mingcheng fell asleep quickly after lying down.
Jiang lay on the inside, his eyes dazed, and his thoughts suddenly returned to many years ago.
That year, Yuan Xiang was fourteen years old, which was the age when a girl was most beautiful. She was two years younger than Yuan Xiang, and her figure had not yet fully grown.
She accompanied Yuan Xiang in the garden to enjoy flowers and butterflies, and then met the young and heroic His Highness the King of Yan.
The seventeen-year-old King Yan fell in love with Yuan Xiang at first sight, and did not even notice that beside Yuan Xiang, there was a little girl who silently admired him quietly looking at him.
King Yan waited tenaciously for three years and finally married a beautiful woman.
Yuan Xiang became Princess Yan, and as her adopted sister, she had access to Prince Yan's palace.
She grew up day by day, and the love for King Yan in her heart was like a seed that took root and sprouted quietly. At some point, it grew into a lush and huge tree, unable to extricate itself.
However, King Yan only had eyes for his own Princess Yan, turning a blind eye to her growing beauty and charm.
Later, Princess Yan acted as a matchmaker and arranged a marriage between her and Shen Rong.
Before getting married, she boldly confessed her feelings to King Yan and was willing to commit herself to him as his concubine.
She will never forget the cold look in King Yan's eyes when he looked at her: "Jiang Xue, the princess loves you as her own sister. You actually covet me. Are you worthy of the princess?"
After that, she married into the Shen family and became husband and wife with Shen Rong. A few days after the wedding, she went into Prince Yan's Mansion to express her gratitude to Princess Yan.
At that time, Princess Yan was seven or eight months pregnant and was about to give birth. Her hands and feet were in the palace, and her beautiful face was extremely fat. But even so, King Yan did not take a concubine, and guarded Princess Yan every day.
Seeing Princess Yan's carefree smile, jealousy bit into her heart like a poisonous snake.
Why?
Why was Yuan Xiang born as the direct daughter of the Yuan family and loved by all, but she was the daughter of a guard. After her mother died and her father was gone, she could only stay with Yuan Xiang as a half-master and half-slave?
How come Yuan Xiang was able to marry a man of her dreams without any effort, but her sincerity was abandoned and she could only marry a man she didn't like?
Why is Yuan Xiang so high and mighty while she is as humble as dust?
"Sister is pregnant and has difficulty walking," she said softly, "I will send this cup of tea to His Highness in the study on behalf of my sister!"
Princess Yan had no idea what she was planning and quickly agreed.
She carried the tray and entered King Yan's study in the name of delivering tea on behalf of Princess Yan. Although King Yan hated her, he never imagined that she would have the guts to poison the tea.
She finally got her wish, and she spent time with the sweetheart she had dreamed of and thought about day and night.
After the effects of the medicine wore off, King Yan regained his senses, looked furious, picked up the sword, and planned to kill her with one strike.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body was trembling. When she was about to die, she screamed: "You killed me, how will you explain to your sister!"
"My sister is about to give birth. If the fetus is moved and the labor is difficult, it will kill two people!"
King Yan's face was ashen, and his hand holding the hilt of the sword tightened again and again, but he still didn't kill her!
"Jiang Xue! Don't tell anyone what happened today! If there is even the slightest rumor, I will cut you into pieces!"
"Get out of Prince Yan's Mansion immediately. From this day on, you are not allowed to set foot in Prince Yan's Mansion again. Otherwise, I will kill you!"
The last few words are full of killing intent.
The sword pressed against her chest was bone-chillingly cold.
Her heart was as cold as ice and she left in embarrassment.
More than a month later, Princess Yan gave birth to a son due to dystocia. At this time, she was also diagnosed with a happy pulse.
Shen Rong's younger brother Shen Mao got married early and had already given birth to two sons. Mrs. Feng was pregnant with her third child. She was carrying Shen Rong's first child.
Shen Rong was overjoyed, but she was secretly worried.
Is the child in her belly Shen Rong's or King Yan's?
She secretly hoped in her heart that the spring breeze would allow her to retain the bloodline of King Yan.
No matter how much Prince Yan dotes on the princess, he will not abandon his own children. As long as there are children, she and Prince Yan are bound to be constantly involved. Perhaps, she will have the opportunity to change her appearance and enter Prince Yan's palace in the future.
During the long pregnancy, she had always harbored secret joy and expectations.
When news of Shen Rong's death came, she was shocked and gave birth to her son prematurely.
Sure enough, King Yan sent someone. Eunuch Yang took a drop of the baby's blood and left in front of her.
That day, she was so excited that she could hardly contain herself. After Princess Yan gave birth to a difficult child, it was difficult for her to give birth to another child. Royal blood is so precious, as long as the child is King Yan's, King Yan must recognize the heir.
Anyway, Shen Rong was dead and King Yan could not accept her into Prince Yan's palace openly, so she was willing to place her in an outer house.
Unfortunately, God doesn't do what people want.
That night, Eunuch Yang came and told her in a straight-forward manner that the child was not King Yan's. He also warned her not to reveal the secret of the blood test.
She cried all night and felt an inexplicable hatred for her newborn son.
After three years of mourning for her husband, she abandoned Shen You and married Qiu Mingcheng instead.
Over the years, she has ignored Shen You and almost never went back to Shen's house to see him. Everyone thought she was cold-hearted, but little did they know that every time she saw Shen You, she would be reminded of the time when she wanted nothing more than a tarsal maggot.
