226 Don’t Play Any Tricks
Yang Fen suddenly took a step back, and her expression changed drastically. “You remember? You actually remember what happened when you were young?” Her voice trembled. At that time, Jiang Xi was at most one year old, and she was about to die. How could she still remember this?
Jiang Xi did not say anything. She knew a lot of things.
“Since you remember those things, all the more you should help the Jiang family. I gave you your life, or you would have frozen to death long ago.” After Yang Fen’s panic, she spoke as a matter of fact. So what if Jiang Xi knew everything about the past? She did not throw her into the snow and freeze her to death.
“I only owe my third brother. I’ll give you the money, but you’re not allowed to interfere in my third brother’s affairs, otherwise…” Jiang Xi sneered, and her eyes were filled with killing intent.
Yang Fen trembled. She did not know why, but she felt cold all over. It was as if the temperature around her had changed. She had goosebumps all over her body. When she lost her daughter, she picked up Jiang Xi at the same time. For her, she had put all the hatred of losing her daughter on Jiang Xi. Everyone had bad habits. Even though she had clearly made a mistake, she always thought that it was someone else’s fault.
“Other than money, I also want Song Yun and Jiang Si to divorce.” Yang Fen pointed at Song Yun, who was standing outside the door. Song Yun and Jiang Xi liked to wear the same pair of pants, and she knew that Jiang Xi could do it.
Jiang Xi waved her hand and agreed.
When everything was settled, it was already late at night. Song Yun packed her things and followed Jiang Xi to the Zhao residence happily. As soon as she returned to the Zhao residence, she heard someone report hurriedly, “Something big has happened in the palace. The prince that Lady Xin gave birth to is gone. I heard that he was tied up with red thread and a stone and thrown into the well.”
At this time, the palace was already in a mess. The emperor was furious and sentenced all the palace maids and servants in Lady Xin’s Palace to death. When Lady Xin had carried the child’s corpse that she had fished out from the well, she had immediately gone crazy.
“His Majesty has sealed the palace gates. At this time, the palace is searching for the murderer overnight,” Hong Shan said mysteriously, “That Pure Consort insisted on joining in the fun. It was said that she couldn’t stand seeing the child in the well and fainted. Her fetus was already in bad condition. Now, the imperial physician will be even busier.”
Now that Lady Xin’s child had died, the emperor could no longer care about whether he had twins or not. He became more and more cautious about the child in the Pure Consort’s stomach. Fortunately, a few more concubines in the palace were pregnant, which allowed the emperor to breathe a sigh of relief. From the point of view of heirs, he was probably the worst emperor in history.
Jiang Xi sighed. She looked in the direction of the purple star in the sky and frowned slightly. The star that represented this country was getting more and more off track. She was afraid that this country would fall into the hands of someone else if she was not careful.
“Go, get Wu Tielong here,” Jiang Xi said.
Hong Shan hurriedly went out to call for help. Wu Tielong was often elusive and rarely appeared in the residence. He had some instinctive fear of Jiang Xi. He had lived in the wolf pack for a period of time and had a very sharp judgment of danger.
“You once lived in this country.” Jiang Xi’s tone was firm and not doubtful.
Wu Tielong did not deny it.
“You’ve also met the young prince.” Jiang Xi’s expression was a little cold. The young prince was Yuan Qilin, who had almost been trampled to death by a wild boar in Happy Town. He was still living in Jing City.
Wu Tielong’s expression changed. In fact, this was also the reason why he went to the Happy Village. He wanted to see who had ruined his business, but he did not expect to offend someone he should not have.
“I’ve said it before, don’t easily cause trouble by my side, otherwise … You probably don’t want to see what I can do.” Jiang Xi’s tone was stern. Anyone who dared to play tricks by her side would be killed.
Wu Tielong was not being honest in Jing City and kept making small moves. Only Jiang Xi was aware of these things. At the same time, the country’s momentum was weakening.
“I just want to find one person. After I find her, I will stay by your side for three years. During this time, I promise I won’t leave let anyone have anything against me.” Wu Tielong’s face was filled with seriousness.
When Wu Tielong came out of the Zhao residence, he happened to see aunt Mei ‘er eating beef jerky with a big belly. The taste was somewhat familiar.
“Are you from the Northern Border?” Wu Tielong asked out of curiosity.
“Yes, my mother made this. Do you want to try it? My mother has been a vegetarian all her life, but she’s good at cooking meat. This is the snack I’ve been eating since I was young, and it’s my greatest comfort now.”
