Jiang Zhongxing said, "Perhaps."
"Mother, what should we do about this?"
The Princess thought for a mont, "I’m satisfied with this girl Yun Jiao, especially since she is your savior."
"This girl saved both you and your father. Without her, Youzhi wouldn’t have been able to reunite with us. She can be considered our family’s lucky star, and nothing can replace her as a granddaughter-in-law."
"Besides, that girl Shoukang, spoiled by Consort Chen, is willful, unruly, and ignorant of the world, not a suitable match."
The Princess pondered for a mont, "The Emperor probably doesn’t know that Youzhi is betrothed. I’ll enter the palace tomorrow morning and casually ntion it. The Emperor should abandon the thought."
Jiang Zhongxing bowed to the Princess, "Then I’m sorry for troubling you to make the trip, Mother."
At the Duke Mansion, Yun Jiao, almost at the sa ti Lady Wu received the letter, also received a letter sent from Prince Manor of Changle, with the sa ssage.
Yun Jiao took the letter, and after reading it, sat dazed by the table.
Soone wants to steal her fiancé.
And she doesn’t even have a chance to resist.
She instinctively felt that the letter was sent by the Princess Consort to warn her out of gratitude.
However, in this world, she is just a doctor with no power or influence. What can she do to resist imperial power?
After dinner, Yun Jiao figured it out, sealed the letter, and called Cai Ping, "Deliver this letter to the Young Master and make sure it goes directly into his hands."
Cai Ping nodded seriously, slipped the letter into her sleeve, and left.
In no ti, Jiang Youzhi ca over, walking briskly. Upon entering, he said, "Jiao Jiao, don’t worry."
Yun Jiao couldn’t help but laugh, "What am I not to worry about?"
Jiang Youzhi carefully examined her expression, and seeing she seed genuinely indifferent, he inexplicably felt relieved yet sowhat disappointed.
He waved the maids out before saying, "I won’t marry so ghost princess."
"Even if there’s a decree, I won’t marry."
Yun Jiao snorted, "Dare not marry even if there’s a decree? That would cost your head."
"Besides, marrying a princess isn’t bad. A princess has noble status and might be stunningly beautiful."
Hearing her words, Jiang Youzhi detected a slight jealousy and felt happy again, softly saying, "No matter how beautiful the princess is, I don’t want her. I only want to marry you."
Yun Jiao suddenly glared at him, "Are you saying I’m not beautiful?"
Jiang Youzhi instantly understood what Jiao Jiao ant by a death stare and a deadly question!
Panicking inside, he quickly waved his hand, "No, no, in my heart, you’re the most beautiful, no one can compare."
Seeing his flustered look, Yun Jiao didn’t argue any further, "So how do you plan to solve this issue?"
Jiang Youzhi replied, "I’ll first discuss it with my parents. Probably, my grandmother will need to step in to resolve this."
After comforting Yun Jiao with a few more words, he headed to the main courtyard.
Upon hearing from Lady Wu that the Duke had already gone to see the Princess, Jiang Youzhi felt at ease.
In Great Chu, there is a morning court every three days, so there’s no court the next day, and the Princess prepared to head to the palace early in the morning.
Outside the Diligence Hall, the eunuch ca out and said, "The Emperor is playing chess with Mr. Yan, and invites the Princess in to speak."
The Princess tidied her clothes and went in.
Upon entering, she saw the Emperor and Yan Beichen sitting on either side of the Arhat Couch, the Emperor deep in thought with a chess piece in hand.
Yan Beichen glanced at the Princess and stood to greet, "Greetings to the Princess."
