Chapter 203 (1/2)
In a corner of the palace, Jiang Dan changed her usual leisurely attitude and became a little anxious. Even the maid in waiting around her saw that she was wrong. She forced herself to sit down on the chair again and slowly grasped the back of the chair. At last, the maid in waiting could not help saying, ”is the empress concerned about the affairs of Jiang Shangshu? Your majesty will be worried when she knows. ”
Jiang Ruan's face changed. He forced out a smile and sighed: ”I just didn't expect that my eldest sister was so heartless. At least she was also her own father. How could she be so cruel. Although my palace is not very close to my father, I can't bear to see him fall into such a situation. ” She said, and then she pressed her forehead as if she were sad.
”Niang Niang is too kind-hearted,” the maid of honor couldn't help persuading: ”just take good care of yourself now.”
Jiang Dan waved his hand, shook his head and said, ”I know. Go down first.”
The maid of honor took a worried look, and Jiang Dan stepped down. There was only Jiang Dan left in the big hall. Her face was a bit ferocious, with her fingernails sliding on the armrest of the stool.
Jiang Quan has been sent to the prison. I didn't expect that Jiang Ruan's ability is so great that after so many years, he can produce evidence. Now it's only Jiang Quan involved, but butterfly knew that she worked for Xia Yan, so why didn't she poke the matter out. Butterfly naturally won't keep secrets for Jiang Dan. In fact, Jiang Dan has already guessed the possibility, that is, Jiang Ruan deliberately suppressed the fact. She has already known that she poisoned her and Zhao Mei.
As long as he thought about it, Jiang Dan felt guilty. She couldn't be clearer about Jiang Ruan's tactics. From Shanye's daughter, whom nobody paid attention to at the beginning, to Jinying's princess, who no one dares to underestimate now, Jiang Ruan almost devoured Shangshu's house and eradicated the people who were against her. Jiang Ruan's six relatives didn't recognize her, and he was very careful. How could he let her go alone? The reason why there is no movement now must be because there are some back moves left?
Jiang Dan was more and more afraid and could not help biting her lower lip. A moment later, she suddenly told her confidant pearl to come in and said, ”I have something to tell you.”
……
At the same time, on the carriage back to the house, Jin San asked Jiang Ruan: ”since the young lady knows that Jiang Zhaoyi is also the murderer who killed her, why don't she let the butterfly bite her out? It is the concubine, as long as it involves the life of the official wife, it also comes from the trial, even his majesty can not intervene. Why did the young lady let her go? ”
”I won't let her go.” Jiang Ruan smile: ”just don't want to be so cheap. There are too many loopholes in butterfly's words. The reason why Jiang Quan was caught is that Xiao Shao intervened in it. Now Jiang Quan's official career seems to have come to an end, and he has little power in the court, and his majesty will not have much objection to it. But Jiang Dan is involved. Now she is in favor. If someone wants to take this case seriously, it's not difficult to find the doubts. Don't forget that the butterfly and the so-called evidence are all made by ourselves. It's impossible to keep a trace of things in the world. ”
Jin three thought for a while, then nodded: ”that said, it seems a pity to give up this opportunity for nothing. Does the young lady already have a good way? ”
”Jiang Dan is suspicious. Although he is fierce, he is still cowardly in his heart for so many years. She was afraid of the east window incident. She thought she was already in the palace now. Eagerly, where can we think out the mystery in this case? We should be full of how to avoid being found. Jin San, when you get back to the mansion, you'll send some royal guards to protect Jiang Quan secretly. You can't be killed before Jiang Quan is sentenced. ” Jiang Danfen asked.
Jin San was surprised: ”she wanted to kill people?” Then a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes: ”such a woman, in order to protect herself, could have done such a thing. No wonder she would have done it to her then. But madam, although she protected Chiang Kai Shek's power, what would she do after that? ”
Jiang Ruan said with a smile: ”I don't want to take the initiative. Once I take the initiative, I will always expose myself first. What I want to do now is to lead the snake out of the hole. The more anxious she is, the more prone she is to make mistakes. I will lure her into action. It's just that the tomb she dug out buries herself. ” She said gentle, Jin three but feel as if there is cold, heart can't help a Lin, see Jiang Ruan language smile, then understand that she must be in mind, simply put down her heart.
When he returned to Jiang's house, unexpectedly, there were some strange bodyguards at the door of the house. Although these bodyguards only dressed as the bodyguards in the house, Jiang Ruan could see the difference at a glance. She has always been good at observing the details. These bodyguards have a solemn look and regular appearance, even the royal guards. Jiang Ruan frowned. She had been in the palace for so many years in her previous life. These people looked like the imperial guards.
Seeing her coming, the guards nodded and said, ”I've seen the princess.”
Jinsan and Tianzhu's face slightly changed, but housekeeper Lin trotted all the way. He saw that Jiang Ruan was also slightly stunned. It seemed that he didn't expect that she would come back so early. He was stunned for a moment and then said, ”young lady, why are you so early?”
Assuming that he didn't see the abnormality of these people, Jiang Ruan acted calmly and said, ”I'm a little tired. Housekeeper Lin, I'll go and sit in my study. I'll wait for Xiao Shao to come back if I have anything to do.”When it comes to the ”study”, housekeeper Lin has another meal. Among those strange bodyguards around, a leading bodyguard suddenly said, ”princess, please don't go to the study?”
Jiang Ruan didn't pay any attention, as if he didn't hear him at all. He just stepped forward to the direction of the study in the mansion. As soon as the head of the bodyguard's face changed, he immediately stopped in front of Jiang Ruan and said in a deep voice, ”please move.”
Jiang Ruan quietly looked at him, her eyes calm, as if there is no mood of blessing, so indifferent looking at the man. At last, the man was puzzled by her eyes. Jiang Ruan Cai said faintly: ”housekeeper Lin, is this the new bodyguard? I don't know the rules. ”
”I'm not a new bodyguard.” The bodyguard leader has been walking for many years. He has never seen any kind of high-ranking officials, but some of them still have to give him some noodles. It's the first time I've hit someone in the face without hesitation. However, although he was a little embarrassed, he had a good temper and didn't have a theory with Jiang Ruan. He also looked very humble.
”What's so strange here?” Jiang Ruan smiles: ”since he is the bodyguard of the foreign house, he is also an outsider. The outsider has to intervene in the affairs of King Jinying's house. No matter how powerful your master is, as long as he doesn't have the surname Xiao, he can't intervene here.” Jiang Ruan light way.
The bodyguard was surprised and looked at Jiang Ruan with some inquiry. Jiang Ruan looked at her calmly, and the man was smart. Knowing that Jiang Ruan knew the identity of the man inside, but even so, how could she dare?
Jiang Ruan's heart was cold. She did seem to have guessed the identity of the people inside. Although she didn't understand, it was more of a slight disgust. On weekdays, she would just avoid walking away, but now it is related to Jinying palace, so she is unhappy. Although the culprit in the previous life was not that person, she always hated the people in this ancestral temple from then on. This life can avoid then avoid, do not want to actually still want to mix together? But why is he qualified to interfere in other people's lives?
Jiang Ruan said with a slight smile, but the smile was not soft, with a trace of unquestionable strength: ”the bodyguard of the foreign government, can you get out of the way now?”
”This...” The bodyguard wanted to refuse directly, but he couldn't say anything to Jiang Ruan's eyes. He recalled that the woman in front of him could even bring her father to court. If she didn't pay attention to the common customs, she would be very arrogant.
