Chapter 297 Everyone has their own agenda
No matter what, he couldn't let the princess of Nanmo marry into Dongli. However, if something happened to the princess of Nanmo in Dongli, then this matter would be much more interesting. Thinking of provoking conflicts between the two countries and making them go to war, Bei Yize's eyes were full of smiles. This would be the most beneficial for them.
Therefore, he would deliberately bring up these things when he knew that there was someone outside the door. If his guess was correct, the person outside the door might be the currently favored Princess Rui. If she knew that His Royal Highness Prince Rui wanted to marry the princess of Nanmo Country in order to gain power, then wouldn't she, the Princess Rui, become a laughing stock? At that time, she wouldn't have to do anything herself, as someone would naturally take care of it for her. Never underestimate a woman's jealousy, as it would bring you unexpected gains.
Sure enough, Xiao Jinrui thought about it again and again, then looked at Bei Yize and said:
"Brother Bei is right. This is indeed a rare opportunity. Since we can get the help of Nanmo Country without spending a single soldier, then I will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity. It's just a position of principal wife. If the princess of Nanmo Country cares about it, I will give it to her!"
Listening to Xiao Jinrui's words, Bei Yize's eyes flashed with a hint of success. Then he looked at Xiao Jinrui and complimented him, "Prince Rui is so unconcerned with trivial matters. He is indeed a man who can accomplish great things. However, the current Princess Rui has not made any mistakes. How can Prince Rui stop the gossips?"
Jiang Wanrong was also waiting for Xiao Jinrui's decision. During this period, Jiang Wanrong enjoyed unprecedented honor and favor in the Rui Palace, not to mention that since she became pregnant, Xiao Jinrui had been obedient to her. She thought she was the happiest woman in the world, but she didn't expect to hear such a cruel scene.
Even though she was pregnant, she was still a chess piece that Xiao Jinrui could give up at any time. Gently stroking her abdomen, Jiang Wanrong's eyes flashed with complexity. Thinking of the idea her mother had given her, she felt a little guilty towards Xiao Jinrui.
Now that she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little relieved. Now that she knew Xiao Jinrui's disgusting face, she would not sit still and wait for her to be executed silently. Gently lifting the hem of her skirt, Jiang Wanrong slowly left here.
Since Xiao Jinrui doesn't care about the flesh and blood in her belly, then Concubine Yuan will naturally not care either. After all, she already knows what they did in the past. Isn't the reason why she didn't execute them mother and daughter because of this? Now that there is such an opportunity, she will naturally not give up easily.
Xiao Jinrui was still thinking about how to place Jiang Wanrong and her son, but he didn't know that Jiang Wanrong had already seen through his purpose and had no idea that he had already thought of a place for them:
"I will secretly send the princess away and send people to protect the safety of the princess and her child. When the situation is settled, I will go and bring them back. By then, even the princess of Nanmo Kingdom will not be able to stop me."
Listening to Xiao Jinrui's words, Bei Yize couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth with a hint of sarcasm. As expected, the greed of man is like a snake swallowing an elephant. He didn't expect Xiao Jinrui to be so greedy. He wanted to get the power of the Princess of Nanmo Kingdom,
He also wanted to protect the mother and child in the mansion. He put all his eggs in one basket. I'm afraid that when the time comes, both the chicken and the egg will be broken! However, all this was planned by Xiao Jinrui. What does it have to do with him? What he has to do now is to add more fuel to the fire and reap the benefits.
……
When Jiang Wanrong came out of the palace, the worry she had when she first came here was gone from her face. Instead, a glimmer of determination flashed in her eyes. She guessed correctly that Concubine Yuan really valued the child in her belly. Even if Xiao Jinrui sat on the throne, without an heir, his kingdom would still be unstable. Looking at Nanny Yuan beside her, Jiang Wanrong's eyes flashed slightly, and then she looked at her and said:
"Thanks to my mother's mercy, she allowed Madam Yuan to stay by my side and serve me. This has caused Madam Yuan to feel wronged."
Hearing Jiang Wanrong's self-deprecating words, Nanny Yuan's face tensed. She looked at Jiang Wanrong and said respectfully, "Your Highness, your words are too kind. It is my honor to serve you."
Seeing Nanny Yuan's respectful look, Jiang Wanrong's eyes flashed with a smile, and then she handed the ice-type purple jade crown bracelet to Nanny Yuan.
"Madame Yuan is the prince's wet nurse. In the prince's heart, you are treated differently. How can you belittle yourself?"
Looking at the bracelet in her hand, Nanny Yuan rubbed it gently, feeling very satisfied.
"The princess is pregnant now, and her future status will naturally be extremely noble. I feel honored to be able to serve her. Princess, please do not embarrass me in the future!"
Seeing Nanny Yuan being so understanding, Jiang Wanrong smiled. "It's still early. Why don't you come with me back to Duke Dingguo's Mansion to take a look? That will put Mother's mind at ease!"
"As I should, I'll prepare it right away!"
Ever since Jiang Wanrong became the Princess of Rui, Jiang Hongtai's family has been moving into the Duke of Ding's Mansion openly on the pretext that the old lady is seriously ill. With Jiang Wanrong's support, even Yan Xiaojun has to give in.
Fortunately, for some unknown reason, Yuan Peishan took the initiative to move out of the Duke's Mansion, and the Duke's Mansion finally became peaceful.
However, Jiang Wanrong had many complaints about this. After all, her family was in power, so she could save some face. The Jiang Mansion's position in Kyoto was far inferior to that of the Duke's Mansion. However, no matter how much she tried to persuade him, Yuan Peishan was unwilling to set foot in the Duke's Mansion. This made Jiang Wanrong very resentful. However, given the current situation, this was undoubtedly the best choice.
Seeing Yuan Peishan becoming increasingly thin, Jiang Wanrong was very surprised. Seeing so many people around her, Jiang Wanrong suppressed the grievance in her heart and said:
"I have a few private words to say, so please go out and wait!"
"Yes!"
Seeing that they had left one after another, and only the mother and daughter were left in the room, Jiang Wanrong could no longer suppress the grievance in her heart, and threw herself beside Yuan Peishan and burst into tears.
Although Yuan Peishan wanted to comfort her at this time, she was helpless when she thought of her current situation. She looked at Jiang Wanrong speechlessly.
The mother and daughter comforted each other for a few words, and listened to Yuan Peishan's instructions. Jiang Wanrong was reluctant to leave. After this farewell, she didn't know if they would meet again.
……
Jiang Shuyu sat in the sedan chair, looking at the strange yet familiar place in front of her, and she felt dazed. She had never thought that she would face all these things with such a great status after returning this time.
