Chapter 295 Jiang Yan's Ambition

But no one looked at her again, as if she didn't exist on the ground at all.

"Why is the princess here?"

After glancing at Jiang Yan indifferently, Xiao Junhao spoke directly.

Xiao Junhao was dissatisfied with Jiang Yan, the concubine. After all, it was a fact that King Chujiang rebelled. As the princess of Chujiang Palace, Jiang Yan had the label of Chujiang Palace engraved on her body.

With her here, it is impossible for Emperor Qi Ming to make him the crown prince.

"I'm here to deliver something to His Highness.

"what?
Sitting down beside Xiao Junhao, Jiang Yan pushed a wooden box to his hand.

Looking at the black wooden box at hand, Xiao Junhao's eyes showed some doubts, "What's inside?"

"Your Highness, open it and take a look."

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Xiao Junhao directly opened the box at hand.

The moment Xiao Junhao opened the box, his eyes widened, full of surprise.

There are neat bank notes in the wooden box, and the number of this box is huge.

"What are you doing? Also, I remember that the properties of Chujiang Palace have basically been handed over. Where did they come from?"

Jiang Yan stretched out her hand to straighten her sleeves, then looked at Xiao Junhao and said, "Your Highness must have heard about the disasters that have seriously affected the people this year. Although the Emperor has not taken any measures at present, it is expected that he will issue a decree soon. .”

"At that time, whoever has money in their hands will be able to solve the emperor's urgent needs."

"The private treasury of Chujiang Palace has indeed been handed over, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. How can I not keep any of the wealth accumulated by my Chujiang Palace over the years?"

"But all the silver in my hand is in this box."

"Your Highness don't need to think too much, I handed these to Your Highness in person, just wanting to show my loyalty to Your Highness."

"I know that I am not the Princess Qing that His Highness wants, but I have already been given a marriage by the Emperor, so I will do my best to help His Highness achieve his wish, and I hope His Highness can see my sincerity.

When speaking, Jiang Yan's tone was very flat, but when he looked into her eyes, Xiao Junhao saw endless ambition.

I don't know what came to mind, Xiao Junhao suddenly laughed, "Thinking about it, no one would have thought that a woman like a princess would have her own ambitions.

Hearing Xiao Junhao's words, Jiang Yan didn't say anything, but smiled faintly.

After a while, Xiao Junhao put away the silver notes that Jiang Yan gave, and then said softly, "Princess Wang has married into my Prince Qing's Mansion, so she will always belong to my Prince Qing's Mansion.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

In the house, Xiao Junhao and Jiang Yan had a happy chat, but no one saw Lin Mengyao who was stiff at the door.

Lin Mengyao tightly held onto her palms, and when she heard the laughter in the room, she only felt it was extremely ear-piercing.

Did she really choose the right one?

In the end, Lin Mengyao still didn't go in, turned around and left, and walked towards her yard.

But when he reached the corner, a familiar voice came from behind him, "Concubine Lin."

Hearing this voice, Lin Mengyao's eyes showed a bit of complexity.

Then, she turned around with a smile, "I've seen the princess."

Walking up to Jiang Yan, Lin Mengyao bowed her knees and saluted.

Jiang Yan quietly looked at the person in front of her without making a sound.

If Jiang Yan didn't open her mouth, Lin Mengyao had to maintain this movement. Just when Lin Mengyao's legs were trembling, Jiang Yan's voice came from above her head, "Get up."

"Thank you, princess."

"Concubine Lin, do you regret marrying into Prince Qing's Mansion now?"

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, Lin Mengyao's heart skipped a beat, but her face was still full of smiles, "Why did the princess say that?"

"Although I was born in the Chujiang Palace, I am only a concubine of the Chujiang Palace. I have understood a truth since I was a child. If I want to get something, I have to fight for it myself."

"If I hadn't married into this Palace of Prince Qing, we would have nothing to do with each other. But since I have already married into this Palace of Prince Qing, side concubine Lin, I hope you will be more cautious and don't forget your identity as a side concubine."

"I know that you are unwilling, and I also know that if it weren't for me, you might be the princess of Prince Qing's mansion, but I just showed up, so this is fate."

"Princess, what do you mean by saying so much?"

When Lin Mengyao heard this, she couldn't bear it anymore.

But just as Lin Mengyao opened her mouth, Jiang Yan raised her hand and slapped her across the face.

Jiang Yan also practiced martial arts since she was a child, and her hands are so strong that Lin Mengyao fell to the ground.

Lin Mengyao covered her face with her hands, and looked at Jiang Yan with a sinister expression.

"This slap is my reminder to you that Lin Xingchen is the master of the Lin family now, and you have nothing left now."

"So stop trying to reach for something that doesn't belong to you."

After saying this, Jiang Yan walked away holding the maid's hand.

Lin Mengyao sat on the ground without making a sound for a long time.

"My concubine, I'll help you up."

Lin Mengyao's maid hurriedly helped Lin Mengyao up after Jiang Yan left.

Seeing the redness and swelling on Lin Mengyao's face, the servant girl said in a low voice, "Side concubine, how can this princess beat someone for no reason, you go tell the prince and let him decide for you, you..."

"To shut up!"

Lin Mengyao turned her head and stared at the servant girl with gloomy eyes.

"No one is allowed to tell the prince about this matter."

Jiang Peihuan didn't know anything about the affairs in Prince Qing's mansion.

That night, Han Feng hurried into Jiang Peihuan's plum garden.

Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan were playing chess, and when they saw Han Feng walking in hastily, they both put down the chess pieces in their hands.

"Master, there is news."

Meeting the eyes of the two, Han Feng continued, "Those arrows were indeed forged by the Jiang family, but the Jiang family's arrows are much less."

"After investigation, it was found that the Jiang family's arrows were scattered in two places. One is in the Huainan Palace, and the other is in the Qing Palace."

"Have you found out how these arrows flowed out?"

This is what Jiang Peihuan said.

Hearing her words, Han Feng nodded, but his eyes showed a bit of difficulty.

"These arrows flowed from the general."

"You said it was by my father's side?"

Han Feng didn't speak, but nodded.

Seeing him nodding, Jiang Peihuan's eyes were all ugly.

Jiang Peihuan never thought that these arrows flowed from Jiang Hong's side.

Standing up, Jiang Peihuan looked at the person opposite, and said softly, "Xiao Nanye, I'm going to talk to my father about this, you have to come with me."

"Well, I'm with you."

Xiao Nanye nodded, and left the plum garden with Jiang Peihuan.

Jiang Hong happened to be at home today, looking at Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye who walked into Yanlin, he laughed softly, "Huan'er, why are you and the prince here?"

"Father, I have something important to tell you."
