Jiang Qiao's superficial skills are not perfect. His emotions are clearly written on his face, but he is still denying it, "No, don't ask, just leave immediately."
Jiang Yuhuan didn't beat around the bush with him and said bluntly, "I can't leave, I still have things to do."
"What's the matter?!" Jiang Qiao stood up suddenly and looked at her nervously, even more seriously than when she talked about the Queen Mother.
Jiang Yuhuan was suspicious, "I can't tell you either."
"Is there anything you can't tell Dad? Dad won't hurt you!" Jiang Qiao looked excited, eager to know what Jiang Yuhuan was going to do.
The more Jiang Qiao behaves like this, the deeper the doubts in Jiang Yuhuan's heart. Only Fu Shichun and the others knew what she was going to do, and Jiang Qiao would certainly not have expected the impact.
But Jiang Qiao was so nervous because he was obviously afraid that what she would do was what he was worried about.
So, what is Jiang Qiao worried about?
Is there anything Jiang Qiao doesn't want her to do but is afraid of her doing?
Her face was expressionless, her eyebrows were crooked, and she said with a smile: "Why are you so nervous, Lord Marquis? Are you afraid that I will ruin your good deeds?"
"Ah Huan, I just want to save you, do you understand or not?"
Jiang Yuhuan stopped laughing, "I don't quite understand. After all, every time the Marquis comes to me, he either asks me to give in, or asks me to apologize on my own. It's obvious that I'm the one who was hurt, but the Marquis can't see it."
Her understatement stung Jiang Qiao hard. Jiang Qiao clenched his fingers into fists and his eyes were red, "A Huan, I know I didn't do well, but this time, can you just listen to me?"
Jiang Yuhuan refused to accept the offer, "Unless you tell me the reason, I will not block my life and fortune because of your words."
"Dad...Dad really can't tell you. He just wants you two siblings to live well."
"But you were the one who sent me to the Prince's Mansion." If she had come here not at the Prince's Mansion but at the Marquis' Mansion, her situation would not have been so difficult.
"Dad had no choice. At that time, the county king's guards threatened me with your life, so I had no choice but to agree. We agreed in three chapters, saying that it would only take ten days. Once the ten days are up, the county king must secretly send you away. Who knows that it will not be five days yet? God, you are awake."
"Aren't you happy that I'm awake?" Jiang Yuhuan laughed angrily. He really wanted her to live well. How could it be possible that his first reaction when he saw her awake was accident rather than surprise.
She recalled the day she returned to the palace, when Jiang Qiao forced her to find a way to let Jiang Li enter the palace, even using family methods, and said with a smile: "That's right, I'm sober, there is no reason for Jiang Li to enter the palace. "
Jiang Qiao retorted: "I want Jiang Li to enter the palace so that you can leave the palace smoothly."
"Master Marquis, don't you think it's inconsistent? I told you the day I returned home that I didn't want to be a concubine, and you refused!"
Now he is saying that everything is just to get her to leave, and he is not pretending to be a loving father.
"At that time... I was the one who was deceived by lard. I admit, I wasn't very smart. Even this title was obtained by your mother for me. I didn't have any brains. All I wanted to do was protect you siblings. Maybe The method was not right and hurt you, but you must believe me, I really do it for your own good."
Jiang Yuhuan's patience ran out and he had no intention of listening to Jiang Qiao's explanations anymore.
"If you are really good for me, you should tell me everything instead of leaving me unclearly in danger. Do you have a perfect way to let me leave the capital? Do you know how to fake death to deceive everyone? ? Are you looking for a corpse to replace him after he has been smashed beyond recognition, or are you taking a fake death drug? Can you guarantee that the people around you will be loyal and not betrayal? Can you escape the pursuit of people who are looking at you? Have you ever thought about these? "
Jiang Yuhuan asked Jiang Qiao one question after another. The answer was already obvious and Jiang Qiao had never thought about it.
As he said, he is really not smart.
Jiang Yuhuan felt that there was no need to continue talking. Jiang Qiao never let go of the inside story, so the conversation was meaningless.
She stood up and suddenly remembered the medicine in her body, and asked casually: "Does the Marquis know that extreme happiness leads to sadness?"
Jiang Qiao's eyes suddenly widened, his mouth opened in shock, and he couldn't make a sound for a long time.
When Jiang Yuhuan's eyes were full of mockery, his eyes fluttered around in panic.
Without saying a word, she turned around, opened the door, and took a long breath.
Before, she had gone astray and only thought about the special medicine. She started with the medicine and ignored the person who administered the medicine.
She has been in the Hou Mansion since she was a child, and the person who drugged her could only be from the Hou Mansion.
Either the master of the Hou Mansion, or someone outside who didn't know any grudge against her child, bribed the servants of the Hou Mansion to do it.
She was only three years old at the time, her younger brother had just been born, her mother had just passed away, and there was no aunt in the Hou Mansion, so the only ones who administered the medicine were Jiang Qiao and his servants.
She didn't think about Jiang Qiao. She blurted out the question without any probing or questioning, but she didn't expect to find the answer right away.
Her mother died in front of her, so Jiang Qiao drugged her in the back.
In this way, Jiang Qiao kept saying that he wanted to protect her and that it was for her own good.
But Jiang Qiao was right about one thing. He was not very smart and his flaws were revealed too quickly.
If she didn't ask Jiang Qiao to tell her personally why he let her go, but instead told her her conjectures one by one, she might be able to find the answer.
Next time, I feel a little sad for the original owner this time.
"Let's go for a walk outside."
Zhongyuan raised his head and looked at the sky, "Princess Princess, it's almost time to eat."
"Find a pavilion and take your vegetarian meal there to eat."
"good."
"By the way, there is no need to investigate the matter of extreme happiness leading to sadness. I have found the person who drugged it."
Zhongyuan opened his mouth to ask, but suddenly realized what he was doing and turned to look at the room. Jiang Qiao was holding his head in pain, his shoulders shaking slightly.
She bit her lip, but did not say any comforting words.
It was approaching noon, the sun was high, and many people were resting in the pavilion after burning incense.
Jiang Yuhuan walked for a long time without seeing any vacant pavilion. He was thinking about whether to go to the temple to get another guest room, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure sitting on a stone table in the bamboo forest.
"Miss Sun?"
"Princess?" Sun Jiaojiao was also surprised to see Jiang Yuhuan. She stood up and saluted.
Jiang Yuhuan held her arm and said, "No need to be polite."
She remembered how Sun Jiaojiao helped her give false evidence last time, so she came over to say hello.
In fact, even if no one testified that they saw her and Fu Shiju walking, it would not affect the final outcome.
"The county princess also comes to offer incense?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect so many people to come here to offer incense."
"Today is the fifteenth day." Many people offer incense on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.
"No wonder. Along the way, I didn't even have a place to rest."
Sun Jiaojiao heard the implication and invited her, "If you don't mind, Princess Princess, please sit down with us."
"good."
Jiang Yuhuan sat down and invited Sun Jiaojiao to have a vegetarian meal with him, but Sun Jiaojiao politely declined.
She also knew that their positions were different and did not make things difficult for her. She turned around and asked Zhongyuan to get the vegetarian food.
Zhongyuan went to the kitchen to cook some medicine and became familiar with the road.
"Thank you for last time."
Jiang Yuhuan did not explain, but Sun Jiaojiao immediately understood what she was talking about, and said with a shy face, "It's easy to do with a little effort, Princess Princess, you don't have to be polite."
"Help me. Your family hasn't made any trouble to you, right?"
"No, they didn't pay attention to it."
Jiang Yuhuan thought about it. It was Zhen Shangshu's case to help her testify. Compared with Sun Qi's case, it was really not worth paying attention to.
However, Sun Jiaojiao always looked at her from time to time after she finished speaking. She kept waiting for her to speak, but in the end she fell silent.
The two were speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Suddenly, she saw a figure walking towards the forest with paper and pen.
"Eh? Is that Qi Yi?"
"It's him." Sun Jiaojiao said firmly without hesitation.
"What is he doing with a pen and paper?"
"Painting."
Jiang Yuhuan was a little surprised, "Isn't he a military commander? I can't tell, he is quite capable of both civil and military skills."
"Actually, he is not a military commander." Sun Jiaojiao sighed in a sad tone, "He is knowledgeable and talented in literature. He should have taken the imperial examination route."
"Then you become a military commander. Wouldn't it be great to take the imperial examination and become an official in the court?"
Sun Jiaojiao looked at Qi Yi in a daze, but she did not forget to explain to Jiang Yuhuan.
"If you want to be a civil servant in the dynasty, you have to take your time if you don't have anything to do. But military officers are different. Once you make great contributions, your future is limitless."
Speaking of Qi Yi, she no longer looks timid.
"But there is no war now, and I heard that he is working in the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and cannot go to the battlefield."
"It's the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division who only went there when there was no war. If there was a war, he would probably go to the military camp immediately."
Jiang Yuhuan suddenly remembered that the last time he met Zongma on the street was because of a battle report.
So Qi Yi is going to the military camp soon?
"Then why not join the army from the start?"
"Of course it's Uncle Zhongyi's shame. You can only start as a soldier when you join the army. There is at least a position in the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities. But when the war starts, you can immediately make achievements by going to the military camp, and no one cares about being a soldier before."
Jiang Yuhuan didn't understand very well, "Since Uncle Zhongyi can find a position for Qi Yi in the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, there shouldn't be a big problem in the military camp."
Sun Jiaojiao straightened her mouth and shook her head, "No, if you want to achieve military exploits, you have to be in the border army. Uncle Zhongyi's connections are not that wide. Besides, the army you join may not be able to fight."
"..."
Jiang Yuhuan could only say that this idea was very utilitarian, but he did not regard Qi Yi as a human being.
Wherever there is war, send your son there.
If you want to make great achievements, you have to go to the battlefield and harvest people's heads.
"Qi Yi doesn't object?"
"This is Qi Yi's own choice."
This was not the first time that Jiang Yuhuan heard about the situation in Uncle Zhongyi's family. The rise and fall of the family rested on Qi Yi alone, so why didn't he encourage the other two concubines who were ineffective.
But from Mrs. Zhongyi's point of view, she probably wouldn't want her concubine to do anything great.
"Then why not get married? Isn't it faster to rely on in-laws?"
Find a capable in-law, and then use the connections to find a good job. This is how many modern Phoenix men get started.
"So I say this is Qi Yi's own choice. Uncle Zhongyi's first thought was to marry a daughter-in-law with a prominent family background, but Qi Yi was not happy. Besides, everyone in the capital knew that Uncle Zhongyi's mansion had this plan. No one is happy to have their blood sucked by Uncle Zhongyi’s Mansion.”
Jiang Yuhuan wondered, "Qi Yi is so good-looking, but no one is attracted to him?"
Sun Jiaojiao was surprised that Jiang Yuhuan could praise a man's good looks without hesitation, but seeing Jiang Yuhuan's magnanimous expression, she felt that she was making a fuss. She continued Jiang Yuhuan's words as if nothing had happened: "Yes, it's just the matchmaker's words ordered by her parents. She has her own thoughts." What’s important?”
Also, not many people dare to rebel against their parents.
Any words spoken may be considered disobedient and unfilial, so no one dares to express themselves.
Sun Jiaojiao's lonely look fell into Jiang Yuhuan's eyes, and Jiang Yuhuan joked, "Miss Sun knows a lot."
