The Prince Misses His Princess - C49 Please have a seat at the Wen Family
Jiang Wanyan choked and glared at Su Mu Qing: “You did it on purpose!”
Su Mu Qing shouted, “It’s really not true!”
It could be said that this made sense, but Jiang Wanyan had no intentions of bickering with a ‘patient’ like him. After pondering for a moment, she said, “Then give me back a new scimitar!”
It was just a scimitar, so it was a small problem.
Seeing that Jiang Wanyan was no longer angry, Su Mu Qing heaved a sigh of relief, “Fine, I’ll give you a new one. It’s definitely better than the one you had before!”
Now that things had been made clear, the atmosphere between the three of them was completely different. When it came to the fact that Cheng Jiayue was still missing, Su Mulang was still lamenting about the fact that Jiang Wan Yan had urged him to jump that night.
Jiang Wanyan felt a bit embarrassed when she heard how fearless she looked. Actually, she didn’t think too much of it back then. It was just that since Su Mu Qing had said so, she had unconditionally trusted him.
In the end, only Su Mu Qing was injured. It was unknown if it was due to some unknown fate.
The three of them had eaten for a long time. When Su Mulang left, he was a little drunk, and his steps were very weak.
Jiang Wan Yan had asked Zhang Rui to help support Su Mu Qing up. Who knew that his eyes were so clear, where was the slightest sign of drunkenness? On the other hand, she was indeed feeling a little dizzy.
“The aftereffects of this wine are great, you go to sleep first, I’ll go to the ancestral hall to kneel for a while.” Su Mu Qing patted her head and gave Yu Yan a look.
Kneel?
Jiang Wanyan frowned, “That won’t do. I’ll accompany you on your knees. I’m still okay, I didn’t drink much.”
Su Mu Qing stared at her for a moment, then chuckled: “It’s fine, I have something to say to my mother, I won’t be late, and my hands are not yet ready, so I can’t take care of you, and I can’t sleep in the same room, it’ll just become troublesome.”
Perhaps it was due to his habit of many years, for him to have to kneel in the ancestral hall for so long without letting Jiang Wanyan down, or perhaps it was because he had a lot of things he wanted to tell her from his heart. Regardless of the reason, Jiang Wanyan could tell that he did not want her to kneel with him.
She did not force it, but repeatedly reminded Zhang Rui not to make it too late.
Zhang Rui promised with all his heart to reassure her, his master was like this every year, with a fair amount of control.
This time, Jiang Wan Yan nodded and watched them leave before Yu Yan supported them back to their own courtyard.
Yu Yan had seen with his own eyes how Gao Lan Xuan had treated Su Muchang and Wen Yongnan. Furthermore, she didn’t know that Gao Lan Xuan had threatened Jiang Wan Yan before, so when she saw Gao Lan Xuan, his eyes immediately lit up. “Esteemed wangfei, look, is that the Gauguin?”
Hearing this, Gao Lan Xuan turned her head, and coincidentally met Jiang Wan Yan’s gaze. Jiang Wan sighed, then patted Yu Yan who was still excited: “You can leave first, help me boil some water to bathe, I’ll talk to Gauguin first.”
In Yu Yan’s heart, Gao Lan Xuan was a heroic girl with high martial skills. She was loyal to the Duke Palaces and protected them, so it was normal for her master to speak to her.
After Yu Yan had left, Gao Lanxuan sat back down on her seat. She did not look at Jiang Wanyan, but continued to look at the sky.
“What are you looking at?” Jiang Wanyan did not have any prejudice or enmity towards Gao Lan Xuan. She thought that Gao Lan Xuan had come to talk to her about some things, so she intentionally sent Yu Yan away.
However, she was too busy looking at the sky and didn’t say anything. Jiang Wanyan also raised her head in curiosity, but other than the sky full of rivers, there was nothing else.
“I once heard Master say that our fate, the changes of mountains and rivers, can be seen from the vast sea of stars, but I’ve seen for many years, and I still can’t understand anything. If I could see clearly, then I would know whether you are the Prince’s lucky star or a disaster.”
The moment she said “Prince”, her feelings for Su Mu Qing were exceptionally strong.
Jiang Wanyan felt that she was just speaking shamelessly. If there was nothing to do, she wouldn’t be able to find any satisfaction in it. Since she was willing to watch, she would listen. Why did she take the initiative to ask?
That’s great now. They’re definitely going to be shouting and fighting again.
As expected, when Gao Lan Xuan said her second sentence, her gaze had already landed on Jiang Wan Yan’s face: “Your identity is truly weak, and is completely useless to the prince. The country of Qiang is thousands of miles away, and you can’t even help the king, I just hope that you know very well that you don’t have to rely on luck and superiority in the Xia Kingdom. Your identity sometimes doesn’t become a stepping stone for the prince, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you will become a stumbling block, so think carefully, what can you do to help the king?”
Jiang Wanyan was speechless. The person in front of him was the real Gao Lanxuan. Others could not pretend to say what the Prince had said.
And she’s not here to talk to you at all. She’s here to inform you of what you should do, or, to put it more bluntly, to tell you that you’re too bad to be worthy of her all-powerful master.
Their hearts were very tired, but Jiang Wanyan couldn’t show that she was very tired, so she prepared to smile to dissolve the awkwardness between the two of them.
In the end, just as her smile was forced out, the extremely cool Gao Lanxuan had already leaped up and flew away, disappearing into the night.
Jiang Wanyan’s smile froze on her face. She let out a long breath and returned to her room to take a bath. The hot bath before going to bed was the most comfortable. Sure enough, he had to enjoy it in time.
Maybe it was because of the alcohol, but she fell asleep instantly. Before Yu Yan even went to the ancestral hall to check on Su Mu Qing, she had already lost consciousness.
When he woke up again, it was already the second day. Last night, his sleep quality was exceptionally good. He had not even dreamt before he woke up early in the morning. Only after he had finished washing his face did he feel full of energy.
“Oh yeah, did you go to the ancestral hall last night?” As soon as her mind cleared, she remembered what she hadn’t had time to know last night.
Yu Yan nodded, “Princess, don’t worry.”
Only then did Jiang Wanyan start laughing, and she was prepared to look for Su Mu Qing. The two of them walked through the long corridor and headed towards the study room.
Zhang Rui didn’t see them and just walked away with his head lowered. Jiang Wanyan called out to him, “Zhang Rui, you’re in a hurry, what’s going on?”
When Zhang Rui saw that it was Jiang Wanyan, he let out a long sigh. “It’s great that Wangfei is up, Wen Family is here to invite her!”
