Chapter 1,180: Goodbye Jiang

"Thank you, Princess!" Zhao Xiran thanked her. This matter went smoothly. Finally, today's trip was not in vain.

"Sister-in-law is too polite. It was originally she who requested to leave the palace. She said she wanted to offer incense to the eldest sister and was unwilling to stay in the palace." Shao Wanru explained.

"Princess, can you ask...is the eldest sister really...suffering from a sudden illness?" Zhao Xiran inquired cautiously after seeing that Shao Wanru looked relatively well.

People who live happily will be gone if they say they are gone.

If it were outside the palace, the Xingguo Hou Mansion would definitely find out the truth of the matter, but it happened to be inside the palace, and Shao Yanru entered the palace under those circumstances. The emperor did not favor her, it could even be said to be disgusting. How could the Xingguo Hou Mansion have the confidence to inquire about this matter, so they could only accept the result silently.

Even if he wanted to inquire, he could only inquire secretly and not dare to show up in front of others. Shao Wanru did meet the conditions for "inquiring".

"I don't know about this either. When Concubine De told me, I thought it was a lie, but it turned out to be true." Shao Wanru said. Seeing that he didn't say much about it, he said casually, "This I asked Mo Yan about the matter later, but she couldn’t tell me the reason. She only said that there was some controversy, and I’d better wait until she meets the Madam to tell me the details!”

Since Shao Wanru didn't want to talk about it, Zhao Xiran didn't mention it anymore, so as not to arouse Shao Wanru's disgust. The purpose of going to Prince Chen's Mansion today was achieved. He also got the news about Mo Yan, so he could explain it after he returned.

"Then let's wait until Mo Yan's matter is settled!" Zhao Xiran said.

Shao Wanru nodded nonchalantly, then changed his tone: "What did my sister-in-law think about the incident between eldest brother and Princess Yuan'an last time?"

This matter has been in the past for so long, why would it be brought up again at this time? Zhao Xiran was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he carefully replied: "Princess Yuan'an is powerful, and your eldest brother has nothing to say!"

After saying that, he sighed heavily, originally it was just a sigh, but when he finished sighing, he couldn't help but sigh again, feeling inexplicably sad.

"What if the eldest brother is asked to testify against Princess Yuan'an?" Shao Wanru said.

This suggestion frightened Zhao Xiran's face, and he hurriedly suppressed the sadness in his heart. Princess Yuan'an is the future Princess Zhou. Even though this incident has made her lose face now, if he really wants to step on her face, King Zhou will not do it. Will not agree.

"It's... it's been so long, and I didn't make it clear at the time. If we talk about it now, it will bring trouble to the princess." Zhao Xiran said pointedly.

Of course Shao Wanru understood the meaning of these words, and Zhao Xiran did not need to explain. After being silent for a while, he seemed to have made a decision: "In that case, forget it, I originally wanted to vent my anger on my elder brother!"

"No need, your eldest brother is much better now!" Zhao Xiran laughed dryly.

She was afraid that if she couldn't vent her anger, her life would be at stake in the end, and she would become the trigger of the fight between the two princesses. She might really be in trouble.

The Xingguo Hou Mansion is also facing internal and external troubles, and Zhao Xiran is not that confident.

Seeing her refusal, Shao Wanru seemed a little unhappy. After spending a few words with her, he felt a little tired. Zhao Xiran was also a smart man and knew that this was the purpose of Shao Wanru's coming today, so he was speechless at the moment. Speculatively, he stood up and said goodbye knowingly.

Shao Wanru was a little polite and asked Yujie to send her to the door of the house.

After getting on the carriage of Xingguo Hou Mansion, Zhao Xiran leaned against the carriage.

Inside, I thought carefully about the conversation I had with Shao Wanru before, and I felt more and more that I was asked to come here this time because I wanted my family to face Princess Yuan'an.

Something happened at the Princess Mansion before. Princess Yuanan heard that she fainted and had an accident. However, after the incident, King Zhou gave several noble girls, which shows that the palace was also angry with Princess Yuanan.

Princess Chen was originally at odds with Princess Yuan'an, and now she wanted to use her own power to step on Princess Yuan'an.

Thinking clearly about this, Zhao Xiran felt a cold sweat on his vest. The current Xingguo Hou Mansion could not withstand the retribution from King Zhou and Princess Ruiping's Mansion, so it was better to huddle up and settle the matters in his own house.

Jiang, she wants to find Jiang.

Princess Chen did not achieve her goal, but she gave herself an unexpected reminder. She was going to tell Mr. Jiang about marrying an equal wife. Regarding this matter, Ms. Jiang was more anxious than herself. For so many years, she did not believe her husband. It seemed that the shrewd mother-in-law didn't know anything. If she had any backup plans, she could use them at this time to prevent the woman from entering the house.

Back in the mansion, Zhao Xiran went to the study first and told Shao Huaan exactly what he had said to Shao Wanru. Shao Huaan nodded repeatedly, thinking that her response was reasonable. At this time, she could not become a sharp knife in the hands of Prince Chen. Dealing with Princess Yuanan? If you don’t have that much ability, you don’t know how you will die by then.

It's better to take this loss in stride.

This matter has been going on for so long, and Shao Huaan is no longer as angry as he was at first. He can calmly think about the causes and consequences of this matter, and how to deal with it now.

After the couple finished their discussion, Zhao Xiran returned to the backyard. Before he sat down in his own yard, he heard from his servants that Prince Chen's Mansion had sent two vats of water lilies.

After thinking about it, I asked someone to move the two tanks of water lilies to my yard to show their importance.

Prince Chen's Mansion sent several women who were rough messengers. They looked very strong. They were accompanied by a nun in charge. After they came in, they first greeted Zhao Xiran, and then politely asked where they were placed. .

Zhao Xiran sent a maid next to him to direct. He sat inside and meditated for a while, then got up and took only one maid to the backyard of the Jiang family's yard.

The courtyard is still the same courtyard, very large, but very deserted. The main entrance of the courtyard has long been sealed, leaving only a small side door for food delivery.

Zhao Xiran knew clearly that there were not many servants left inside, and no one wanted to be imprisoned with the Jiang family until death. The people inside could not leave without special reasons.

Since Jiang was locked up, Zhao Xiran had never come in again. He stood at the side door and let the maid knock on the door. An old woman opened the door and saw that it was Zhao Xiran. After being stunned for a moment, she hurriedly He stepped forward and saluted: "This slave has met Grandma!"

"What are you doing, madam?" Zhao Xiran asked.

"Madam was walking in the yard just now, taking a walk!" the mother-in-law reported. Apart from walking, she could only sleep. Jiang couldn't go out of this square inch, and she didn't dare to go out of this square inch. Shao Jing had already warned her If she causes trouble again, he will definitely divorce her.

Zhao Xiran walked in. This was the first time she had been to Jiang's yard since the accident. No one had taken care of the yard for a while. The grass was very lush and the ground was covered with branches and leaves.

Standing still in the yard and not going to the main room, Mrs. Jiang inside had already gotten the news and took a maid from inside.

When we came out, there were only two or three servants left in the courtyard.

"What are you doing here?" Mrs. Jiang glared at Zhao Xiran displeased and blamed Zhao Xiran for being in this situation. This daughter-in-law was also unlucky. If it weren't for her, she would still be the Marquis of Xingguo. Where would she be? Fortunately, he still has Ru'er. When Ru'er becomes prosperous, he will ask his son to divorce this wife.

"See mother!" Zhao Xiran stepped forward and saluted.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. If you have nothing to do, don't come. I'll hate you when I see you!" Jiang said coldly, raising her head and standing on the steps, looking at Zhao Xiran coldly.

"Mom, I do have something to say, but I don't know whether to say it or not." Zhao Xiran said tactfully, looking very embarrassed.

"If you have something to do, just talk about it. If you don't have anything to do, don't talk nonsense. Who can show you so much performance? I'm not Hua'an. I don't think you have a good character. I was blind at the beginning and thought you were a prosperous man. I didn't expect it. You are just a prodigal, and if we marry you, you will be ruined for eight lifetimes!"

Jiang cursed loudly and poured all his anger on Zhao Xiran.

No matter how unpleasant the scolding is.

Zhao Xiran's hand held the handkerchief tightly, holding it hard, for fear that he would be unable to bear it if he couldn't control it. Jiang's vicious and mean face was really irritating. If it wasn't necessary, he really couldn't bear it. Would love to come see her.

He lowered his head slightly to hide the anger in his eyes.

She suppressed the anger in her heart hard: "Mom, my father is going to marry an equal wife, do you know?"

"Marry an equal wife? It's best to get an equal wife. Hurry up and let Hua An marry a capable equal wife, so that you don't have to..." Ms. Jiang cursed smoothly. After a few curses, she suddenly came to her senses and winked. His eyeliner almost formed a triangle, "What are you talking about, who will marry an equal wife? Who wants to marry an equal wife?"

The voice of the last sentence was raised and sharp.

"My father wants to marry her as an equal wife. She is said to be a daughter-in-law who has been raised outside for more than ten years. She is also a young lady from a well-known family. She met my father when she was in trouble. Now my father wants to take her in as an equal wife. "Zhao Xiran looked at Jiang's almost twisted face with a calm expression, feeling a sense of joy in his heart.

She wanted Shao Hua'an to marry an equal wife, and she also said that she wished she could marry her. Now it was her turn, let's see how she handles it!

"Miss from the aristocratic family, where did the lady from the aristocratic family come from? I already knew that Shao Jing had a woman outside. I don't know where he hooked up with a scumbag, and he dared to say that he was a lady from the aristocratic family." Ms. Jiang cursed loudly, and her nose was so angry that she felt angry. Smoked.

She had long thought that Shao Jing had a woman outside, but she never found out. She didn't expect that this bitch would want to come in at this time.

"I am the real wife. If I don't agree, this bitch will not be able to get in." Mrs. Jiang wished that Shao Jing was right in front of her at this moment. She wanted to pounce on Shao Jing and bite off his flesh, then beat that woman to death. Go to that nasty place.

"Mother, you are not the legal wife now, you are the common wife!" Seeing the angry and almost crazy Jiang, Zhao Xiran added to his anger.

It is unreasonable to have two ordinary wives while there is no official wife.

She never mentioned this matter in front of Shao Wanru, and Shao Wanru didn't say it in front of her, but both of them understood this.

There has always been one regular wife and one equal wife, so how could there be two equal wives? This seems unsolvable in theory!
