"Haha, have you really left the Jiang family and climbed to a high branch and forgotten your roots?"
"So what?" Jiang Shanshan said disdainfully: "Why, the Jiang family has lost its backer and has been rejected by the Sixth Prince. Are you afraid?"
Jiang Mingjue's breath was suffocated. Although these words were unpleasant to hear, he had to say that they were true.
What she said is absolutely right.
The incident involving Second Master Jiang caused the Sixth Prince to be suspected by the court. Not only did he lose his official career, but he also became dressed in white.
It will be difficult to get ahead in the future.
Not to mention his official career, it is impossible for the Sixth Prince to trust him again.
It can be said that their second bedroom was completely destroyed.
He came here today because he wanted to save his sister's life, but he also wanted to obtain evidence and gain benefits.
There is no way out from the Sixth Prince's place, so we have to find another place.
You can't be like Da Fang and bet everything on him.
However, Jiang Shanshan seemed to already know his purpose and did not give him any chance.
"I advise you to give up those thoughts. I am not the Sixth Prince. I will indulge your Jiang family."
The Jiang family she was talking about was naturally not just him.
I don’t know if Jiang Mingjue understood it. When he wanted to say something else, he saw someone standing behind Jiang Shanshan. His palm was stroking the hilt of his sword.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he realized that this person was probably not an ordinary person, so he had to give up his original thoughts.
"We'll see!" After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Mingxuan and the others coldly and walked away.
Jiang Shanshan sneered.
Who wouldn’t say harsh words?
Besides, he said harsh words in front of her. I really thought she wouldn't dare to kill him!
As his eyes flickered, he heard Jiang Mingxuan say: "Sister, there is no need to be afraid of him. No matter what his intentions are, it will be impossible for the second wife of the Jiang family to stand up again."
Jiang Shanshan nodded, and his smile became real when facing his younger brother.
"What do I have to worry about? It's you who should be worried. He has already determined that it was you who did it. You should be more careful when you go out in the future."
When the two heard this, they looked at each other and agreed in unison.
Seeing that Jiang Shanshan understood everything they should know and no longer had to worry about it, Jiang Shanshan simply ignored them and left the side hall to go out.
This time, she brought Taohong with her, and the two of them were going to the gambling house. It had been quite a while since Hou Mo left, and no one had come back, which was really worrying.
Of course, what she was worried about was simply business.
When he arrived at the gambling house, Jiang Shanshan asked about it, and the manager didn't hide anything. He said respectfully: "I would like to thank the girl for my boss. I just received the letter. My boss said that he can return to Beijing in three days at most."
."
"Three days?" Jiang Shanshan was curious, "Is it difficult to do business this time? It has been delayed for so long."
"It's not difficult, just a little troublesome..."
Seeing this, Jiang Shanshan didn't ask any more questions, but he secretly guessed in his heart.
If it's so troublesome, I'm afraid it's not the business of ordinary people.
Thinking of this, she thanked her and then talked to the steward about the profits from the gambling house.
"The industry in Jiangnan and other places has obviously grown. I plan to train more people and go north."
"North?" the manager thought.
"Yes, the atmosphere in the north is more open, and business is extremely easy for both men and women."
Jiang Shanshan seemed to have thought of something and smiled slightly, obviously very confident.
The rest only needs the protection of business giants like the Hou family.
Of course, there should be no shortage of benefits.
The steward did not agree immediately. Of course, this kind of thing was not something he, a small steward, could decide. He could only agree to wait for Hou Mo to come back and report before making a decision.
After coming out of the gambling house, Jiang Shanshan took Taohong for a walk, picked out some nourishing things, and casually asked: "How is Uncle Xun's health these days?"
"It's not good, it keeps happening over and over again, and it's even worse in the past two years." Taohong became worried.
"That's it!" She thought for a moment and said, "Didn't you ask a better doctor to take a look?"
Taohong shook her head, "It's not that easy. I heard that Uncle Xun's poison was obtained from the Western Regions back then. Uncle Ze and Uncle Xun were afraid that someone would use this to find out their identities, so they didn't dare to take risks."
Jiang Shanshan understands.
The poison is difficult to cure and cannot be treated properly, so it keeps getting worse and worse.
She noted this down and thought of a way to do it later.
"Master, master, I'm looking for you!" A familiar voice came from behind Jiang Shanshan.
She turned around and saw King Qi with a fan stuck behind his head, pushing away people and walking over.
When he arrived, he looked around and asked: "Where is your guard?"
"What, are you looking for him?" Jiang Shanshan glanced in a certain direction.
Xiao Xuanye waved his hand, which seemed to be a little hot. He took off the fan and waved it, and said mysteriously: "I'm not looking for him, I have something to say to you."
"Huh?" Jiang Shanshan raised his eyebrows.
What tricks are you playing again?
"Is Gu Sanke looking for you today?"
"no, what happened?"
"Ahem, listen to me." Xiao Xuanye thought for a while, his face was really tangled.
It wasn't until Jiang Shanshan got impatient with waiting that he said: "Well, I heard that a cousin girl came to the Duke of Jingguo's residence, and Gu Sanjin was the one who went to pick her up at the city gate in person."
Jiang Shanshan raised his eyes, and Taohong beside him seemed to realize something and glanced at her quickly.
"Oh? She's just a cousin, just a relative. Is there anything wrong?"
"But this cousin..."
"Um?"
"It seems that I came here for Gu San. When I heard that he had arranged to get married, I was so surprised that I came all the way from Lin'an."
As he spoke, he paid attention to Jiang Shanshan's expression. Seeing that it was the same as usual, still calm and calm, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
"Aren't you worried?"
"What are you worried about? The marriage has been decided. If she thinks about it again, can she still be a concubine? If she has the ability, she will take it over!"
After saying that, she happened to see a figure walking from one side, and her eyes dimmed.
He ordered: "Go back home!"
As soon as she turned around, her arm was pulled by a force. Gu Yuan looked at Xiao Xuanye with a dark face, who was gloating about his misfortune and got out of the way.
Just listen to him say: "Shanshan, there is a banquet in the house tonight, you come with me..."
"Sorry, I have other things to do later, I'm afraid I won't be able to go."
"Whatever it is, I'll do it for you."
"No one else can do this."
"I……"
"Cousin?" A soft and delicate voice sounded. She was wearing powder and heavy makeup.
Before you even get close, you can already catch a glimpse of some of its moving beauty.
Jiang Shanshan raised his eyes and bumped into the other person unexpectedly.
The cousin of the Gu family is the niece of Duke Jingguo's wife Li, her name is Li Ying. When she was young, she came to Beijing to live for a few days, and she happened to fall in love with Gu Yuan. It is said that she is the biggest enemy of the young daughters' family.
Many people knew about this incident, but because Gu Yuan later went to the border, people gradually forgot about it in the past few years.
Now that people have appeared again, the nature of the past has been mentioned again.
Just today, as soon as Gu Yuan picked up Li Ying, word spread throughout the capital.
Even Xiao Xuanye got the news and hurried over to vent his anger.
