Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Jiang Changning returned to Rujing Courtyard in a soft sedan chair. Before he reached the gate, he saw two people walking around the gate. He took a closer look and found that it was Chen Yi and her personal maid.

"It's midnight, Madam Chen isn't resting in the yard, what are you doing here?" Jiang Changning asked.

"My concubine has met the princess, please greet her." Chen Yi bowed her knees and saluted.

"Don't be too polite, tell me, what are you doing here?" Jiang Changning repeated the question.

"When I went back to the princess, I heard a loud noise outside the mansion and was worried that something would happen, so I came here to see what the princess has to say." Chen Yi said.

"Mrs. Chen is determined. I don't have anything to say. You stay in the yard well. If there is chaos outside, the house cannot be messed up." Jiang Changning said indifferently.

"Yes, the concubine will go back now." Chen Yi bowed and helped the maid to leave.

Fu Cui spat at the figure going away, "Weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken."

Back at Rujingyuan, Jiang Changning couldn't sleep, and that night, no one in the capital fell asleep, and the sound of artillery was deafening.

After finally waiting until dawn, several doors of Prince Jin's Mansion were still closed.

Chunlai and Xiaochun came to report: "Wangfei, there were three people who wanted to sneak out of the house last night, but they were caught."

"Lock it up and interrogate it. It was so chaotic outside last night, why did they sneak out of the mansion?" Jiang Changning thought that someone in the mansion would not be able to hold back, so he had already been on guard.

She also arranged for reliable people to go out and inquire about the situation outside.

An hour later, the person who inquired about the news reported back: "Princess, the west side of the city is in ruins, dead people are everywhere, corpses are strewn across the field, and blood flows like rivers."

"Was it the officers and soldiers who fired the cannons yesterday, or the victims?" Jiang Changning asked.

"It was General Xiong who ordered the cannons to be fired. The cannons were always aimed at the outside of the city. This time they fired at the inside of the city without first moving the people away. The casualties were heavy."

Jiang Changning clenched his fists. This Xiong should be cut to death. He suppressed his anger and continued to ask, "There must be a reason for firing cannons at innocent people, right?"

"It is said that there is a bandit leader hiding inside."

"Bandit leader?" Xiulan was extremely angry, "Those are poor disaster victims."

"Now General Xiong is still bringing officers and soldiers all over the street to arrest people. If we hadn't carried the signboard of Prince Jin's Mansion, we would have been arrested too."

Xiulan frowned, "Will the imperial court let him arrest people like this?"

"He declared that he was arresting the gangsters who were dispersed last night."

"Is Xizhimen now occupied by the victims, or by the officers and soldiers?" Jiang Changning asked.

"Although the victims are still occupying the city, the officers and soldiers are guarding under the city wall to prevent the victims from coming down. Now the victims have become trapped soldiers, and they will surrender after a long time."

"Since the victims of the disaster are all trapped soldiers, why are they still shooting?" Fu Cui asked.

"Pa" Shu Fei patted her, "Don't ask stupid questions."

"Why did I ask a stupid question?" Fu Cui pouted unwillingly.

The person who inquired about the news said: "Miss Fu Cui, the victims occupy the vicinity of Xizhimen, and they are still advancing step by step into the city. Seeing that there is a tendency to intensify, General Xiong opened fire to force them into the tower."

The situation in the west of the city is already known, Jiang Changning said: "Thank you, Xiulan."

Xiulan gave the prepared rewards to those three people.

"Thank you, Princess." The three of them saluted and retreated.

After a while, Chang Youzhong came back, "My lord, my lord is in the palace now, I can't come back for the time being, it's nothing, please don't worry."

"Okay, as long as it's okay." Jiang Changning had to go to the Liuxuan Courtyard to tell the concubine the news.

Knowing that King Jin is well, the concubine felt relieved, "When will Yu'er come back?"

"My lord will come back after finishing his work." Jiang Changning replied.

The concubine was quite dissatisfied with this answer, "How can you be a wife? You don't care about your husband at all, and you are considerate of your husband!"

Jiang Changning asked coldly: "Does the concubine mean to let me go to the palace now and drag the prince back to the mansion?"

The concubine patted the Kang table, "When did I ask you to go to the palace to drag people, don't mess around."

"It turns out that the concubine also knows the word nonsense." Jiang Changning sneered.

"Jiang Shi, I'm your mother-in-law, how did you talk to me?"

"Did the Concubine forget what I once said, I respect you, you are my mother-in-law, if I don't respect you, you are nothing."

Under the concubine's glaring gaze, Jiang Changning said without fear: "Who is gossiping in the concubine's ear? It's not the one who has made the concubine look for me these days.

As he said that, Jiang Changning glanced at the screen, and it seemed that the maid beside the concubine could not do it just by beating, and had to be replaced.

"Wh-who is looking for you, I am teaching you as a mother-in-law." There was a hint of guilt in the princess's eyes.

"Concubine Tai, you and I have been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for a short time, but I have always respected you. If you really look down on me as a daughter-in-law, tell your son to let him reconcile with me, and marry another room for you." Dear daughter-in-law, the title of Prince Jin will eventually be inherited by his son."

"You also know that the title will be inherited by a son-in-law, but you have been married into the mansion for more than a year, and I haven't seen any movement in your stomach." The concubine said angrily.

It turned out that it was because of this that Jiang Changning didn't want to discuss the matter of having a baby with the concubine, so King Rajin came out to get in the way, "The concubine should ask the prince about the matter of having a baby."

"You don't need to say, I will naturally ask him." The concubine said angrily.

"If the concubine is okay, I'll go back first." Jiang Changning bowed and saluted, turned and left without waiting for the concubine's consent.

"I haven't let you go yet." Toffee shouted sharply.

Jiang Changning turned a deaf ear to it, walked around the screen, took a special look, and saw a faint watermark on the side of the screen, and sneered, the concubine is getting older, and the rules of the yard are becoming more and more loose.

Coming out of Liuxuan Courtyard, Jiang Changning went to see Princess Kangren, "Did you get intimidated last night?"

"I'm not intimidated, but I haven't slept all night, and I'm so sleepy now." Princess Kangren suppressed the desire to yawn.

"Sleep when you're sleepy, there's no rush to learn at this moment." Jiang Changning called the maid to come in, waited for Princess Kangren to sleep, and then returned to Rujingyuan.

Back in Rujingyuan, Jiang Changning said to Xiulan, "Let someone check who has been gossiping in front of the concubine in the past half month."

"Yes, princess." Upon hearing this, Xiulan knew that the concubine was embarrassing Jiang Changning again, she was furious, and immediately went to do it.

In the afternoon, Jiang Changning took a nap, and Xiulan came in to report: "Princess, it's Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei's youngest daughter-in-law is happy again."

Jiang Changning knew that Mrs. Wei belonged to Mrs. Qiao, but Mrs. Qiao was dead, and she became a rootless duckweed.

It stands to reason that she should be on duty honestly, not to catch Jiang Changning's eyes, so that Jiang Changning can't remember to turn over the old score, why did she dance more happily?

"Don't move her in a hurry, you and Xiaochun together, check who is behind her?" Jiang Changning said.

There are quite a lot of ghosts and ghosts in this mansion. After sorting them out, another pile pops up.
