Marry One other (4)

Within the Jin palace, Jiang Mingwei was leaning towards the window whereas counting the inexperienced buds on the bushes to kill time. When she was midway via the rely, she heard some actions subsequent door. It appeared that there have been many individuals going out and in.

Jiang Mingwei regarded irritated: “What’s the matter, why is it so noisy at present?”

After she requested, a maid hurriedly got here in from exterior and reported to Jiang Mingwei, “Princess, it’s Princess An who went to a backyard get together at present, and her carriage has simply returned. It’s stated that Prince An spent some huge cash for the princess and acquired many brocades. Now, she is transferring these into the palace.”

‘It’s her once more, and there’s additionally that Xie Xuanchen. It actually annoys me to no finish after I hear them doing so properly whereas I’m working into unhealthy luck, one after one other.’ Jiang Mingwei gritted her enamel.

Though the Emperor didn’t query Jiang Mingwei after what occurred on the Lantern Competition, she knew that the Emperor was very upset in her.

Xie Xuanji gave her a chilly shoulder all this time and refused to speak together with her. Even the Empress didn’t need to see her, what extra she even gave Xie Xuanji just a few beauties as a present instantly. These ladies got by her mother-in-law and so she couldn’t do something towards them or she may offend the Empress much more. Due to this fact, poor Jiang Mingwei couldn’t even placed on airs as the principle spouse of Prince Jin in entrance of these ladies.

Now Jiang Mingwei even felt that Lianhan was truly extra pleasing to the eyes than these ladies gifted by the Empress. At the very least Lianhan didn’t dare to stress her with the Empress.

Jiang Mingwei sighed and leaned again on her seat. After some time, she requested, “Whose get together did they go to? Why did they purchase so many issues?”

“The maidservant doesn’t know clearly. It appears to be Madam Li’s backyard get together. Madam Li has requested somebody to carry out magic tips, the magician can create butterflies out of the attractive brocade. It’s stated that these butterflies all the time fly in the direction of stunning individuals, so after they have been created all of them flew to Princess An immediately. Princess An was very happy by the efficiency, so Prince An rewarded the magician by shopping for nearly all of his brocades.”

‘Individuals truly nonetheless consider such superficial tips. These performers flattered the nobles as a way to promote their items, so it went with out saying that these butterflies have been specifically skilled to fly in the direction of sure spots.’

‘Such an apparent trick, how can Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen not inform?’

‘Let’s not take into consideration this stuff for now. The extra I take into consideration them, the extra disheartened I’ll really feel.’ Jiang Mingwei comforted herself.

She didn’t need to act recklessly anymore to keep away from angering the Emperor. Though the Emperor was nonetheless displeased with Xie Xuanji, he was nonetheless the emperor’s son, and ultimately the throne could be handed all the way down to Xie Xuanji. So long as she was Xie Xuanji’s spouse, she would grow to be the longer term Empress. What she wanted to do was to not worsen the Emperor’s impression of her.

Nevertheless, Xie Xuanchen had already dedicated a giant taboo by accepting individuals’s blessings which have been initially meant to be the Emperor’s on the Lantern Competition day. It was he and Mu Mingtang who have been current on the platform, and the emperor wouldn’t tolerate them for lengthy.

Earlier than, the emperor wished popularity and placed on a facade, so he was all the time unwilling to make a direct transfer, afraid that he would lose his face if he instantly took the lifetime of a parentless nephew. However now, the severity of the state of affairs had modified, and the emperor might not tolerate it.

The loss of life of Xie Xuanchen was already set in stone.

After Xie Xuanchen’s loss of life, who would Mu Mingtang depend on? Though Mu Mingtang was having fun with her life now, each step she took was resulting in her personal doom.

What Jiang Mingwei wished to do was simply endure till the downfall of Mu Mingtang. Jiang Mingwei secretly waited for Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang’s finish.

Mu Mingtang took the excuse of having fun with the spring and enjoyable, and pulled Xie Xuanchen to take a stroll within the backyard. Mu Mingtang took the chance to slide away from the individuals behind them and whispered about Jinger elixir.

“Now that the New 12 months is over, there shall be no taboo within the palace. I all the time carry Jinger elixir with me, however there’s not a lot within the warehouse. What ought to I do?”
