Chapter 126 Thorns
Jiang Wenyue nodded, her expression was as usual, calm, and there was no wave in her eyes.

She knew that Prime Minister Jiang took care of her suddenly because Divine Doctor Ji accepted her as his apprentice, otherwise she would not have looked at her more, let alone talk to her in such a gentle voice.

Prime Minister Jiang ordered a few more words before letting her leave.

After thinking about it, he still felt that something was wrong, so he decided to send Ji Feng off in person.

The prime minister chased after him all the way, and finally caught up with the monsoon.

"Prime Minister, what do you want to advise?"

Seeing him walking hurriedly, Ji Feng thought he was chasing after him to discuss something with him, so he stopped.

Cheng Lian waved his hands repeatedly, took a breath, and said: "That's not true, Doctor Ji is being polite to me, I just hit it off with you, and I want to come see you off."

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your attention."

Ji Feng is always polite, with a smile on his face, but he feels very alienated.

The two chatted for a few words, and the conversation came back to Jiang Wenyue.

"Thanks to the genius doctor for accepting my daughter as an apprentice. This is our Jiang family's honor. I wanted to treat you to a few drinks..."

Before the prime minister finished speaking, Ji Feng interrupted: "Prime Minister is too polite, you don't need to drink any wine, just treat her well. I saw that the yard is a bit dilapidated, and even the stool is missing legs. She is also the daughter of the Marquis after all. , it would be a joke if it spread."

"The genius doctor is right. I was too busy and neglected her."

The prime minister looked embarrassed, and Ji Feng knew that he was lying.

No matter how busy she is, her daughter should always care about her, and most of the affairs in the backyard are decided by the eldest lady.

But he didn't say much, just said: "Not to mention anything else, the stool should be replaced."

"It's natural."

After this beating, the prime minister also woke up a little bit.

In all fairness, he really doesn't care much about Jiang Wenyue, a concubine. He doesn't know what she likes to eat or play with.

At the same time, there was a burst of anger in his heart, and he didn't know how the eldest lady managed the backyard, which made him lose face in front of the genius doctor.

Back at the mansion, he immediately went to find the eldest lady.

"Prime Minister, what's the matter, could it be that something difficult happened outside?" The lady was a little surprised.

The prime minister sat down at the table: "You are too bad for Wenyue, the yard is dilapidated and old, it's really outrageous, even the chair is missing a leg, how did you become a mother-in-law?"

A look of surprise quickly flashed in Da Furen's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

After working for a long time, it turned out that he was doing it for this matter.

"Prime Minister, don't be angry. It's because I didn't take good care of you. I will try to make up for it. You are tired too. Take a rest."

The eldest lady also has some skills, and she exposed the matter in a few words.

The next day, she asked her servants to inquire about it, and when she learned that Miracle Doctor Ji had been to Jiang Wenyue's yard, she instantly understood.

No wonder the master's attitude changed drastically. He never asked questions before.

She pondered for a while, and then told the nanny: "Go and take out that newly acquired silk, and find a maid to send it to the second young lady's yard. Go quickly."

"You mean Second Miss?" Nanny couldn't believe it.

She was just a concubine, logically speaking, the newly arrived silk and satin could not be her turn, so she was puzzled.

The eldest lady glanced at her: "What are you still doing in a daze, send it quickly. I'm talking about the second young lady, do you want me to say it again?"

"Don't dare!"

This new piece of silk was originally intended to be given to Jiang Xiyuan.

After all, she is her own daughter and also a concubine daughter, so the eldest lady naturally loves her, and all the good things go to her.

After being beaten by the prime minister, she didn't dare to be too harsh on Jiang Wenyue, so she wanted to take the opportunity to make amends.

Otherwise, one day it will be reported that the mother-in-law treats the concubine harshly, and she will not be able to save face, after all, she also wants face.

When Jiang Xiyuan learned of this, she was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and was about to explode.

"No, you can't give her that kind of good stuff. She's a concubine, and she doesn't deserve to wear such good materials."

Jiang Xiyuan closed her eyes, exhaled slowly, and called her personal maid: "Before the silks and satins are delivered, quickly find someone to stop them and smash and scratch the silks and satins. Can't give her good!"

"Yes, miss, don't be angry, this servant will do it now."

How could Jiang Xiyuan not be angry, this silk was supposed to be hers, and she wanted to make some new clothes with it, and she didn't want to be given to Jiang Wenyue by her mother in the blink of an eye.

The maid who delivered the silk satin was quickly stopped, and the maid who stopped her said, "I have a sewing job, and I need your help."

"No, I still have to send something to the second lady."

"What's the matter, just ask someone to give it to you. It's rare for me to ask for help. You really have to help me this time."

As she said that, the maid secretly gave another little maid a wink and asked her to take the satin box.

After Jiang Wenyue received the box, she opened it and couldn't help squinting her eyes.

Seeing this, the little servant girl who served her hurriedly stepped forward to take a look. Looking at the broken silk and satin in the box, she couldn't help but gasped, followed by a burst of anger.

"Miss, I have to report to Da Furen, these maids are too deceitful, and this good silk has been ruined just like that."

But Jiang Wenyue told her to keep quiet, she lowered her voice and said, "You don't need to guess who did it, you know it's my good sister, even if you tell the eldest lady that she will protect her, don't worry, there will always be someone Ways to deal with her."

She could more or less guess the reason, presumably because the genius doctor accepted her as an apprentice, Jiang Xiyuan felt jealous.

People's jealousy is often terrible, and this pile of tattered silk and satin in front of me is proof.

The servant girl felt sorry for her young lady: "But this satin is a good material. If it is in good condition, it can make two new clothes. Miss hasn't worn new clothes for a long time."

"It's okay, it's getting late, I don't need to wait here, you go down and rest."

After closing the box, Jiang Wenyue slowly shook her head, Jiang Xiyuan was too impatient.

At noon the next day, after dinner, the eldest lady asked Jiang Wenyue to follow her to the garden.

"I was too busy and confused. I forgot to take care of you. I will ask someone to replace those things in your yard with new ones."

Jiang Wenyue saluted and said a few words of thanks.

She knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for Da Furen to care about her for no reason, presumably it was because Master came to the yard yesterday, they still cared about their own face.

"By the way, do you like the new satin I sent you yesterday?"

Jiang Wenyue pretended to be stupid on purpose: "The silk and satin are good silk and satin, and the patterns are good, but they are too broken. Is it because my mother specially tested my embroidery skills? Don't worry, I will definitely mend it."

What, broken?

The eldest lady is so smart, she knew who did it in an instant.

Her face darkened slightly, and she thought to herself, this daughter of hers is too impatient, it's just a piece of silk and satin, if you give it away, you will give it away, but she is meddling.

Moreover, the silk was sent by her order, and those who didn't know it thought she deliberately made things difficult for the concubine.

Annoyance arose in her heart, and she said immediately: "It must be the wrong delivery, it doesn't matter, I will give you some other jewelry."

This time, she deliberately gave Jiang Wenyue the new set of jewelry that she originally planned to give to her daughter. This was also a kind of punishment, so that she could have a long memory and not mess around in the future.

Jiang Xiyuan didn't know about it yet, so she thought she was out of breath.

When I went for a walk in the garden in the evening, I saw Jiang Wenyue sitting in the pavilion, her expression changed slightly, and she stepped forward a few steps: "You're not reading your medical books in your yard, why are you hanging out in the garden?"

It turned out that she was really jealous of her studying medicine.

"I got tired of reading, so I came to sit down, what's the matter, sister?" Jiang Wenyue said in a calm voice.

Seeing her calm and composed appearance, Jiang Xiyuan felt even more angry.

Looking at her head, Jiang Xiyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, and then glanced at her neck again: "Honestly, where did these jewelry come from?"

"Sister, why should you be angry? This lady belongs to me. She said she was sorry that I didn't have any good jewelry all year round, so she gave me a set. If my sister likes it, I'll take it off and give it to my sister."

When Jiang Xiyuan heard this, her face turned blue with anger.

Last time, my mother said that she would prepare a new set of jewelry for her. She had been looking forward to it for several days, but she did not expect it to fall into her hands.

The breath was stuck in her chest, she couldn't go up, she couldn't go down, it made her feel uncomfortable.

She glared at Jiang Wenyue, and said mockingly: "I have a lot of jewelry, I don't care about the ones you have worn. Besides, no matter how you dress up, a crow can't become a phoenix."

After speaking, she left angrily.

Seeing her disappearing figure, the little maid beside Jiang Wenyue patted her chest lightly.

"Missy just looked so scary, and what she said was too ugly."

Jiang Wenyue said, "Isn't she still saying bad things? If she cared about everything, I would have been pissed off."

Right now, the eldest lady is making arrangements for Jiang Xiyuan's marriage.

She wants to choose a good family for her daughter, and the people she chooses are all the sons of the right family, no matter which family she marries into, she will not suffer.

The servant girl presented those portraits to Jiang Xiyuan, but she only flipped through them, and no one liked them.

"You, you, you may not be too picky, and you can't hold your breath, what should you do in the future." The eldest lady said helplessly.

Jiang Xiyuan was very aggrieved: "But the silk and jewelry, mother wanted you to give them to me, but now they are given to that girl Jiang Wenyue."

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

The eldest lady sat down next to her and patted her hand: "What's so annoying, I did this to kill your temper, don't be too impatient, you are a prostitute, you don't need to be with a concubine care about."

Having said that, how could Jiang Xiyuan not be angry when she saw Jiang Wenyue wearing jewelry that should have belonged to her.

Having said that, she looked down on those sons of aristocratic families because of the second prince.

She was impatient to see him, and as soon as she got back to her room she sent for information.

When she finally got her wish and met the second prince, she found that his attitude had changed, and he looked more indifferent than before.

"I sent so many letters to Your Highness, but His Highness didn't reply to any of them."

She showed the attitude of a little girl in front of the second prince, her voice was still a little choked up, she sounded very aggrieved.

The second prince was stunned for a moment, and slightly distanced himself.

In his view, Jiang Xiyuan was just a pawn in his hand, and now that this pawn was useless, it meant nothing to him, it was equivalent to waste.

"I have a lot of things to do, and I'm too busy, so I don't have time to reply to your letter."

Jiang Xiyuan was still a little resentful at first, but after hearing what he said, the resentment in her heart disappeared immediately.

She made a cup of tea herself: "You have a sip of hot tea first, and we will talk about it slowly."

"No, I'm just here to see you."

The second prince was a little perfunctory, he didn't want to see her at first, but he was afraid that she would notice something, and then something would happen.

When Jiang Wenyue heard this, her eyes couldn't help but flushed: "It turns out that Your Highness is thinking of me in his heart. His Highness hasn't replied these few days. I don't think about tea and food. My mother said that I have lost a lot of weight."

She really misses him and wants to see him every day, but she is a girl in the middle of nowhere, she can't go out easily, it's not easy to see him.

The second prince didn't take it seriously at all, these so-called longings were a burden to him.

It's just a pawn, if he develops feelings for her, it will spoil his affairs.

He took two sips of hot tea and said softly, "It's not that I won't come, I also have reasons."

He said that he had difficulties, but in his heart he was thinking about how to get rid of her.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for him to admit that he has changed his mind. If he admits, it will cause a lot of trouble.

"What difficulties, His Highness told me, I am willing to share with His Highness."

Jiang Wenyue grabbed his arm excitedly, wondering what was preventing him from seeing her.

Seeing her like this, the second prince knew that she might not be so easy to get rid of.

He closed his eyes, showing a bit of fatigue, and said in a low voice: "I also want to marry you and be with you, so that we can meet every day, but my concubine does not agree."

What, the imperial concubine doesn't agree?

Jiang Xiyuan's heart felt cold, but there was still a glimmer of hope: "Then Your Highness will persuade the empress well, or go to the emperor, I think the emperor will agree to our marriage."

If she can marry the second prince, those princes are nothing, Jiang Wenyue will not be able to compare to her no matter how brave she is in the future.

She planned all of this well and didn't want anything to change.

However, in the next moment, the second prince poured cold water on him: "Royal father didn't agree, I still sneaked over to see you, and wanted to explain the matter to you."

"This is impossible, Your Highness, are you lying to me..."

Jiang Xiyuan's voice trembled a little, her eyes filled with disbelief.

If even the emperor tried to obstruct her, then their marriage would have no chance of winning, and she would never want to be with the second prince.

Thinking of this, her face turned pale and her eyes were terribly red.

"When have I lied to you? If I wanted to lie to you, I wouldn't come here today."

The second prince sighed, and deliberately said in a helpless tone: "I am also helpless. I said a lot of good things about you in front of my father and mother, but they still refused. If this is the case, I can't delay you any longer. From now on From now on, let's make a clean break."

"..."

Jiang Xiyuan opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word. She felt that something had hit the back of her head hard, and she was dizzy.

How could this be possible, she was still looking forward to marrying him, but in the blink of an eye it turned into a phantom.
